Brookfield Business Partners Posts 2025 Profit, Advances Reorganization and Fosber Acquisition

Brookfield Business Partners ( ($TSE:BBU.UN) ) has shared an update.

On January 30, 2026, Brookfield Business Partners reported its results for the year ended December 31, 2025, posting net income attributable to unitholders of $43 million, a marked improvement from a $109 million loss in 2024, while full-year Adjusted EBITDA edged down to $2.41 billion from $2.57 billion due to lower tax recoveries, asset sales and reduced ownership stakes. Industrial operations were the key growth driver, with segment Adjusted EBITDA rising to $1.28 billion, supported by strong demand for advanced batteries, margin improvements at engineered components and contributions from two 2025 acquisitions, while Business Services delivered broadly stable earnings despite IFRS 17 timing effects and tech-modernization costs, and Infrastructure Services declined following the divestiture of the shuttle tanker fleet and partial sale of work access services. The group realized over $2 billion from capital recycling initiatives in 2025, invested $700 million in four growth acquisitions and repurchased $235 million of units and shares, and it continues to record sizeable gains from asset disposals, including $161 million of net gains in Adjusted EFO linked mainly to the sale of offshore shuttle tankers. Strategically, Brookfield agreed in December to acquire a 35% stake in Fosber, a global machinery and services provider to the corrugated packaging industry, for about $170 million of equity as part of a larger $480 million carve-out expected to close in the first half of 2026, advanced a major corporate reorganization that secured unitholder, shareholder and court approval in mid-January 2026 with completion targeted by the end of the first quarter, and continued to buy back equity, deploying $72 million to repurchase 2.1 million units and shares at around $34 each during and after the fourth quarter.
