Insider Ownership: 18.5%

Recent financial results highlight a robust performance with sales reaching A$176.75 million and net income at A$46.87 million, marking substantial year-over-year growths of 32% and 76%, respectively. However, shareholder dilution over the past year and trading at 72.6% below estimated fair value present challenges.
