Avingtrans ( (GB:AVG) ) has provided an update.

Avingtrans reported flat first-half revenue of £78.1m but improved profitability, with gross margin rising to 31.7%, adjusted EBITDA up 10.4% to £9.6m and adjusted profit before tax up 27.1% to £5.7m. Cash generation strengthened, net debt was held at £12.3m despite continued investment in medical imaging and new nuclear technologies, and the interim dividend was lifted to 2.0p per share.

The Advanced Engineering Systems division delivered another strong performance, benefiting from surging global energy demand linked to AI and data centre growth, including a $16m new nuclear contract in South Korea and new UK infrastructure work. The Medical and Industrial Imaging division reduced losses as revenue grew 33%, helped by US FDA 510(k) clearance for Adaptix’s orthopaedic 3D X‑ray system, and with leadership changes and a robust order book, the board signalled confidence in meeting full-year expectations and executing its buy-build-exit strategy to enhance shareholder value.
