MA Financial Group (ASX:MAF) logged AU$0.257 in underlying EPS for the first half of 2026, compared with AU$0.19 a year ago, a Thursday filing showed.

For the six months ended June 30, total income was AU$623.2 million versus AU$367.9 million previously, the Australia-listed financial services firm added.

The board declared an interim dividend of AU$0.08 per security, up from AU$0.06 a year earlier, payable on Sept. 16 to shareholders of record as of Aug. 26.

The company expects MA Money unit to contribute AU$25 million to AU$30 million in net profit after tax for the full year, and asset management net fund inflows, excluding institutional, to increase materially in the first half, supported by improving core real estate fund inflows, but full-year net inflows are expected to remain below record fiscal levels.
