Flowtech Fluidpower ( (GB:FLO) ) has issued an announcement.

Flowtech Fluidpower reported an 8.9% rise in 2025 revenue to £116.9m, with underlying EBITDA expected at £7.7m, slightly below market forecasts but showing a strong second-half recovery as EBITDA improved from £3.5m in H1 to £4.2m in H2. The group highlighted stable gross margins, reduced overheads and improved working capital, alongside a stronger sales pipeline and a 20% larger engineering order book entering 2026, although it cautioned that weak UK market conditions and higher labour costs remain headwinds, prompting a continued prudent outlook despite transitioning from a transformation phase into a growth and build phase. In line with its growth strategy, Flowtech announced the acquisition of Dutch pneumatics and compressed air specialist Q Plus, a deal expected to roughly double its Benelux business, enhance earnings, and significantly strengthen its European capabilities through complementary technology, customers and cost and revenue synergies. The €9.25m enterprise value transaction, funded primarily via a £9m share placing and a retail offer of up to £1m, positions Flowtech as one of the leading players in the Benelux pneumatics and automation market and is intended to accelerate cash generation and scale benefits for shareholders.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:FLO) stock is a Hold with a £58.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Flowtech Fluidpower stock, see the GB:FLO Stock Forecast page.

Spark’s Take on GB:FLO Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:FLO is a Neutral.

Flowtech Fluidpower’s overall stock score reflects significant financial challenges, particularly in profitability and revenue trends. While technical indicators show bearish momentum, recent corporate events provide a positive outlook with revenue growth and improved sales pipeline. However, the negative P/E ratio and lack of dividend yield weigh heavily on its valuation.
