June 29, 2026
Motors growth is being driven by La Centrale’s acquisition and AI-powered pricing, sourcing, and search optimizations that enhance advertising solutions and dealer monetization.
OLX Group reports a strong full year 2026 with revenue up about 28% to $992 million and adjusted EBITDA up 53%, propelled by margin expansion and a sharpened strategic focus.
Real Estate and Jobs growth are supported by product improvements and monetisation strategies, with resilience in tougher market conditions across both private and professional segments.
AI is positioned as an operating system, not just an investment theme, improving product quality and customer outcomes while helping margins, per the CEO.
The FY27 outlook remains positive, driven by AI-enhanced customer value and ongoing strength in core categories, with the La Centrale integration ahead of plan and set for further growth.
OLX invested about $30 million in AI capabilities in FY26 (over $200 million since 2018), deploying more than 85 AI use cases and 12 generative AI solutions across platforms.
Strategic moves in FY26 included acquiring La Centrale in Western Europe to bolster motors and divesting non-core assets in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Polish Fixly, and Romanian Kiwi Finance to sharpen focus on high-growth markets.
Growth is led by Motors, Real Estate, and Jobs, which together comprise 71% of revenue, with Motors up 42%, Real Estate up 26%, and Jobs up 14%.
La Centrale integration contributed to traffic growth of 13% and a 30% increase in leads year over year, highlighting scale and AI-driven playbooks.
AI-powered tools include AutoIQ for dealer pricing, AI matchmaking for Jobs driving 59% of engagement actions, real estate posting tools reducing listing time by 50%, and CompassGPT enabling conversational search for buyers.
