The latest announcement is out from ADENTRA ( (TSE:ADEN) ).

ADENTRA reported full-year 2025 sales of US$2.25 billion, up 3% from 2024, driven partly by acquisition-based growth from Woolf Distributing and supported by resilient gross margins of 21.7%. Fourth-quarter sales edged down 2.5% to US$517.5 million, but Q4 gross margin improved to 22.1%, while basic earnings per share rose sharply to US$2.78 for the year and US$1.32 in the quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA increased to US$187.9 million for 2025, with an 8.4% margin, and strong operating cash flow of US$160.6 million enabled ADENTRA to cut its leverage ratio to 2.2x, repurchase 3.5% of its shares, and return US$29.5 million to shareholders via dividends and buybacks. Management highlighted disciplined execution and supply chain advantages in a muted housing market, while signaling cautious near-term outlook amid affordability and geopolitical headwinds but confidence in long-term growth supported by structural housing demand and favorable demographics.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:ADEN) stock is a Buy with a C$51.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on ADENTRA stock, see the TSE:ADEN Stock Forecast page.
