Breedon ( (GB:BREE) ) has issued an update.
Breedon Group reported 2025 revenue up 9% to £1.71bn and modest underlying EBITDA growth, driven by the Lionmark acquisition and a full-year contribution from BMC, despite like-for-like declines in UK volumes and project deferrals in Ireland. Profit before tax and earnings per share fell, but record post-Covid free cash flow of £133.2m, higher free cash flow conversion and a 3% dividend increase underscored robust cash generation and balance sheet flexibility.
Management highlighted self-help measures and operational excellence, including a streamlined country-based structure, cost savings in Great Britain, strategic expansion in Ireland and a growing U.S. platform centred on Missouri and major infrastructure work. Breedon continued to execute on its EXPAND and IMPROVE strategy with M&A, reserve extensions and efficiency gains, while advancing decarbonisation through the Peak Cluster carbon capture project and lobbying for supportive regulation, leaving the group cautiously optimistic yet focused on discipline amid subdued UK construction markets and mixed global demand signals.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:BREE) stock is a Buy with a £4.50 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Breedon stock, see the GB:BREE Stock Forecast page.
