Chief Executive Officer, Brett Fullarton, commented: “Peet’s first half performance reflects the favourable market conditions being experienced across the Australian residential housing market and the continued solid momentum we are experiencing in key regions, notably WA and Queensland. The uplift in earnings highlights the strength of our position as we move into the second half of FY26. We have upgraded our FY26 NPAT guidance to a range of $86-90 million, which reflects a weighting in our full year performance towards the first half due to the timing of settlements. We have a high proportion of our projects activated, with three new projects scheduled to commence in FY27. With healthy demand, a well-balanced portfolio and a clear delivery focus, the Group is well placed to continue building on this performance.” Operational and Market Commentary Peet’s significant uplift in earnings for 1H26 was supported by price growth across the portfolio, higher settlement activity, and an increased share of profit from Funds Management projects. • Peet experienced healthy demand across key markets with 1,773 lots 8 sold and 1,496 lots8 settled. • The Group’s forward revenue position strengthened further, with $776 million in contracts on hand as at 31 December 2025, representing a 27% increase since 30 June 2025. • Landbank activation9 remained high at 76%, supporting ongoing production efficiency and providing a solid platform for continued delivery in the second half of FY26 and into FY27. • The high level of activation ensures Peet has a ready supply of product available to meet the current market demand. Capital Management and Balance Sheet Peet maintained a strong balance sheet over 1H26. • Gearing10 was reduced to 24.7% at 31 December 2025, at the mid-point of its target range of 20- 30%. • Strong settlement activity, particularly in Queensland and South Australia, contributed to lower levels of bank debt and improved cash inflows from operations. • The Group benefited from reduced pricing on its syndicated debt facility following the addition of a third financier in August 2025, lowering the weighted average cash cost of debt 11 to 7.7%. • Cash and undrawn facilities in excess of $200 million as at 31 December 2025 provide the capacity to fund ongoing projects and support future growth opportunities. • The on‑market share buy‑back was closed during 1H26, having reduced the shares on issue by approximately 4% while open. 8 Includes equivalent lots. 9 When a project is launched all lots in that project are considered activated. 10 Balance sheet gearing calculated as (Total interest-bearing liabilities (including land vendor liabilities) less cash) / (Total assets less cash, less intangible assets). 11 Total annual cash cost of debt / weighted average annual debt balance.

This dividend compares to a 2.75 cents per share, fully franked, interim dividend for the year ended 30 June 2025, and is payable on 26 March 2026, with a record date of 12 March 2026. Outlook Peet enters the second half of FY26 with strong operational momentum and a favourable market backdrop. Elevated levels of migration, continued constraints in housing supply and solid labour market conditions are expected to support underlying demand. Despite recent upward movement, interest rates remain favourable on a long‑term basis, and first‑home‑buyer activity is expected to remain supported by government initiatives. Demand in Western Australia, Queensland and South Australia remains robust, and improving conditions in Victoria and the ACT/NSW markets provide opportunities for growth. Reflecting the strong performance in the first half and subject to a continuation of current market conditions and the timing of settlements, the Group now expects its FY26 net profit to be in the range of $86 million to $90 million, representing anticipated earnings growth of 47-54% compared to FY25. _________________________________________________________________________________ This announcement is authorised for release to the market by the Directors of Peet.
