Brookfield Business Corp. Class A ( (TSE:BBUC) ) has issued an announcement.

Brookfield Business Partners reported a return to profitability in 2025, posting net income attributable to unitholders of $43 million after a loss in the prior year, while Adjusted EBITDA slipped to $2.41 billion from $2.57 billion due largely to asset sales, lower ownership stakes in several businesses and reduced contributions from disposed operations. The firm generated over $2 billion from capital recycling, invested $700 million in four growth acquisitions and repurchased $235 million of units and shares at discounts to intrinsic value, while its Industrials segment delivered 10% EBITDA growth (excluding acquisitions, dispositions and tax recoveries) on strong performance in advanced energy storage and new manufacturing assets. Business Services EBITDA was broadly stable year over year despite the partial sale of a dealer software business, with strong growth in residential mortgage insurance volumes tempered by slower revenue recognition under IFRS 17, whereas Infrastructure Services EBITDA declined following the sale of offshore oil shuttle tankers and a partial divestment of work access services. Management highlighted ongoing margin optimization, commercial discipline and the near-completion of a corporate reorganization expected to broaden global demand for its shares, underlining a strategy focused on capital recycling and operational enhancement to support long-term growth for investors.

The most recent analyst rating on (TSE:BBUC) stock is a Hold with a C$50.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Brookfield Business Corp. Class A stock, see the TSE:BBUC Stock Forecast page.
