Capral Limited ( (AU:CAA) ) has provided an announcement.
Capral reported another strong performance for 2025, with underlying EBIT up 4% to $35.8 million and net profit after tax rising to $35.6 million, aided by an insurance claim resolution and additional deferred tax assets. Despite lower volumes, management credited cost control, margin improvement and pricing discipline, while earnings per share increased to $2.15, and the company completed two bolt-on acquisitions, including in window and door hardware.
The company maintained a robust balance sheet and revised its capital allocation policy, narrowing the target dividend payout range from 40–80% to 40–60% of statutory net profit after tax to support sustainable returns and growth. Shareholder returns in 2025 totalled 85 cents per share, largely via buy-backs and an unfranked dividend, and Capral has launched a new on-market buy-back of up to 10% of issued shares, signalling that repurchases will remain the primary form of capital return while tax losses persist.
