Vinyl Group named among Australia's fastest-growing companies in AFR Fast 100
Melbourne, Australia, 10 November 2026: Vinyl Group Ltd (ASX: VNL) (Vinyl Group or the Company), an adaptive media and music technology company, has ranked 27th overall and second among ASX-listed companies in The Australian Financial Review’s Fast 100 list for 2026.
The Group achieved a compound annual revenue growth rate of 94.60% across FY24 to FY26, increasing revenue from $4.97 million to $18.82 million. This represents total revenue growth of approximately 279% over the period.
The result marks a second consecutive year of national recognition for Vinyl Group’s sustained growth, following its second-place ranking in the 2025 Deloitte Technology Fast 50, where it was the highest-ranked ASX-listed company.
The AFR Fast 100 ranks Australia’s fastest-growing established companies by compound annual revenue growth, drawing on three financial years of revenue verified by an external accountant or auditor.
Vinyl’s inclusion follows its expansion across publishing, advertising, live experiences, e-commerce and music technology. Its strategy has centred on acquiring and integrating strategically valuable businesses, centralising operations and creating commercial opportunities across its media brands and technology platforms.
Josh Simons, Chief Executive Officer of Vinyl Group, said: “We have used technology to accelerate the development of Vinyl, build shared infrastructure and create new commercial products across our portfolio. Alongside our acquisitions, the business delivered approximately 30% organic growth in FY26.
“Our team has achieved this while raising capital and integrating businesses as an ASX-listed microcap. In three years, we have built a group that reaches more than half of Australians online. This recognition reflects the resourcefulness and execution required to get here, and I am proud of what the team has accomplished.”
