The second-half profit skew hasn’t gotten much attention. In April, SysGroup said FY26 revenue was up 7.6% to £22.1 million and flagged adjusted EBITDA at £1.2 million, beating market forecasts. SysGroup ended March with £7.7 million in gross cash and £2.7 million in net cash, after paying out £1.3 million in cash for the Saxis buy. Executive Chair Heejae Chae called FY26 “a year of disciplined execution.” Investegate
With a market cap of £15.9 million and the most recent net cash figure at £2.7 million, that puts the implied enterprise value at roughly £13.2 million. The valuation works out to about 0.6x forecast FY26 revenue, and 11x expected adjusted EBITDA.
| Period | Revenue | Adjusted EBITDA | EBITDA margin |
|---|---|---|---|
| H1 FY26 | £9.9 mln | £0.2 mln | 2.0% |
| Implied H2 FY26 | £12.2 mln | £1.0 mln | 8.2% |
| Expected FY26 | £22.1 mln | £1.2 mln | 5.4% |
The key for the stock is what happens in H2. For the half-year, revenue came in at £9.9 million, with adjusted EBITDA at £0.2 million and net cash at £3.1 million as of Sept. 30. Chae said then that “Managed IT Services revenue has now stabilised.” Cybersecurity accounted for 47% of revenue. Service-desk headcount was down to 22 from 36, while throughput per engineer was up 17%. Investegate
The register looks liquid. SysGroup’s investor page showed 40.8% of stock wasn’t in public hands as of June 15. Gresham House Asset Management owned 26.06%, Chae had 12.67%, and Canaccord Genuity Group had 9.56%.
Investors are focused on cash flow, Saxis integration costs, and if the implied H2 margin sticks or is just a blip, with July 8 results. Revenue growth won’t surprise anyone after the April update gave that figure.
