HUB –8.33%: Posted a softer 3Q update, with platform net inflows declining year-on-year as gross inflow momentum slowed.
- Platform net inflows: A$3.98bn vs. A$4.94bn y/y (-19%)
- Total FUA: A$151.74bn, +22% y/y
- Platform FUA: A$127.83bn, +25% y/y
- Platform gross inflows: A$7.81bn, +2.5% y/y
- Advisers on platform: 5,549, +11% y/y
HUB has been caught in the crossfire of the AI disruption trade, selling off alongside the broader software complex as investors rotate away from perceived tech-adjacent names. After a strong recent bounce, today’s softer update is likely to give some holders reason to take profit in the near term.
Despite the sell-off, the key swing factor for the stock remains the pace of net inflows through volatile market conditions. The longer-term case remains intact — the underlying platform growth is solid, adviser numbers continue to build, and the structural shift toward managed accounts and independent advice is still very much in motion.
