AMSTERDAM--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Prosus N.V. ("Prosus") (Euronext Amsterdam: PRX; JSE: PRX) (Prosus): FY26 was a year of delivery: strong results, disciplined capital allocation, and accelerating AI innovation. Prosus delivered across its AI-powered Lifestyle Ecosystem of delivery, finance and experiences, with all regional ecosystems profitable. Our businesses are increasingly interconnected, driving higher engagement, stronger cross-selling and accelerating network effects. AI is embedded at every layer, from agents that run operations to life assistants that serve customers directly. ToqanClaw, our agentic AI platform, is already available to our 5M+ restaurant partners, building the intelligent systems that define the next phase of commerce.

Highlights

• 57%¹ growth in Ecosystem² revenue, to US$9.7bn
• 84% increase in Ecosystem aEBITDA to US$1.3bn
• Record free cash flow generation of US$1.5bn
• 24% growth in core headline earnings per share
• US$46bn returned through buybacks, driving 16pp NAV accretion
• 40% increase in total Prosus full year dividend, to 28 euro cents
• US$2bn of non-core asset sales
• ToqanClaw, Prosus agentic platform, available to 5M+ partners globally

Fabricio Bloisi, CEO of Prosus, said:

“At Prosus we are building something fundamentally different, an AI-powered Lifestyle Ecosystem that gets smarter and stronger with every interaction. Eighteen months ago, this was a vision. Today the integrated ecosystem is a reality, and it’s scaling fast. The more we grow, the greater the opportunity ahead.

“Our AI capabilities are live, scaling and delivering real competitive advantage. We are moving from reactive platforms to intelligent systems that predict, personalise and execute, based on proprietary data. The Large Commerce Model, our agentic platform Toqan and our life assistants are changing how our customers and partners experience the digital economy. We said we would deliver results, innovation and discipline. We delivered all three. Prosus is much more than it was a year ago — and we are just getting started.”

Nico Marais, CFO of Prosus, said:

“FY26 was a landmark year for Prosus. We delivered strong free cash flow, tripled our ecosystem aEBITDA in two years, and achieved profitability across all three regional ecosystems. These results reflect the discipline of our teams and the compounding effect of consistent execution. Looking ahead, we are deploying capital by investing in iFood and JET to strengthen our food ecosystem, continuing our buyback programme, and actively building Prosus Plus. Our fundamentals are strong, our strategy is clear, and we are confident in our ability to keep delivering value for shareholders."
