The company highlighted key drivers, including accelerated device refresh linked to Windows 10 end-of-life and large AI-related transactions. June marked the tenth consecutive month of device sales growth, and Dicker Data continues to lead distribution of Microsoft Copilot in Australia and New Zealand. The first deployment stage of Australia’s sovereign AI factory A1-F1 also contributed to the result, with further phases expected to follow.
New vendor agreements included CrowdStrike, BMC, Vast Data, and SmokeShield, along with the launch of a Telco division supported by vendors such as Optus and Vocus.
