Pureprofile Limited (ASX: PPL) has executed an amendment with Commonwealth Bank of Australia (CBA) to extend its existing secured loan facility to 30 November 2029, refinancing the facility that was previously due to mature on 30 November 2026.
The amendment also cuts the line fee from 4.20% to 2.85% per annum on BBSY, applied to a facility limit of $2.5 million. The result is longer-term funding certainty on more favourable commercial terms, lowering the cost of capital while removing a near-term maturity overhang.

|---|---|
| Facility limit | $2.5 million |

Why the refinance matters to investors
A lower line fee reduces the ongoing cost of servicing the facility, directly trimming Pureprofile’s financing expense. The extended maturity also removes a refinancing event that was approaching in late 2026, easing near-term balance sheet pressure.
CBA offering improved terms can be read as a lender’s endorsement of the company’s improved financial position and increasing maturity. CEO Martin Filz tied the outcome directly to the business’s progress.
The CBA’s willingness to extend on reduced terms aligns with Pureprofile’s record FY26 results, which showed revenue hitting $65.0 million at the top of guidance, EBITDA growing 25%, and 20 consecutive quarters of year-on-year revenue growth, all achieved without dilutive capital raises.
Martin Filz, CEO
“The extension of the facility on improved terms reflects the strong financial progress and the increasing maturity of the business since the facility was established. It positions us well to continue pursuing sustainable growth opportunities.”
Understanding loan facility refinancing
A secured loan facility is a credit arrangement backed by a company’s assets, meaning the lender holds security if repayments are not met. A “line fee” is an annual charge calculated on the facility limit, while BBSY (the Bank Bill Swap Bid Rate) is a benchmark interest rate that determines the variable interest component.
Extending a maturity date pushes back the point at which the loan must be repaid or refinanced, while a lower line fee reduces the annual cost of holding the facility. Together, these changes lower financing costs and ease short-term repayment pressure, giving a company more balance sheet flexibility to pursue growth.
What comes next for Pureprofile
The amended facility continues to carry ongoing quarterly principal repayments of $50,000, payable on the last day of each calendar quarter. Beyond servicing this obligation, the improved terms support the company’s stated pursuit of sustainable growth opportunities.
Pureprofile is a global data and insights organisation founded in 2000 and based in Surry Hills, Australia. The company operates across North America, Europe and APAC, and has delivered solutions for over 997 clients.
The refinancing places Pureprofile on a firmer financial footing heading into FY27 and beyond, combining a lower cost of capital with the removal of a looming maturity date.
