Funding Circle has achieved its FY26 revenue target a year ahead of schedule, causing the SME lending platform’s share price to rocket by over 17% to 148p in the first half hour of trading today.

The London-based FinTech beat FY25 forecasts, supported by faster growth across its expanding range of products.

The company’s revenue for the year was approximately £204 million, up 28% year-on-year, while profit before tax rose sharply to around £20m from £3m the year prior, beating current market expectations of £191m revenue and £17m profit.
