Retirement village operator Summerset Group Holdings Limited today announced a record full year underlying profit for the year ending 31 December 2025 of NZ$234.2 million, up 13% on FY24 primarily due to a positive sales performance and continual growth in the company’s portfolio. IFRS net profit after tax was down to $259.7 million with the change largely driven by the impact of lower median house prices on revaluations of the company’s portfolio over the year.

Summerset CEO Scott Scoullar said the company’s long-term strategy continues to deliver results with Summerset achieving underlying profit growth, meeting its building targets, achieving healthy sales results (given the property market conditions in 2025), maintaining high resident satisfaction and staff engagement, and hitting significant milestones in its Australian growth strategy.

“We’ve continued to achieve despite another year where the business environment and property market has been subdued. Summerset has lifted the value of the company by $1.32 per share to have a Net Tangible Assets (NTA) per share of $13.75, and we are proud to be very focused on growth” Mr Scoullar said.
