WTC gapped down on its FY26 result. Then buyers turned up.

Why the print looked bad: statutory NPAT and EPS both fell 11%, EPS came in well short of street, and margins diluted nine points.

Why some are buying anyway: the e2open synergy target was beaten roughly a year early, and net leverage landed at 2.7x against ~3.0x guided. The cost ex*****on is real.

The open question is organic growth. CargoWise grew 11% — closer to 8% once M&A and FX come out — and FY27 group revenue guidance steps down to 6–10%.

So: hidden opportunity, or priced correctly? We scored the result 7.5/10. The answer rests on whether CargoWise can carry group growth on its own.
