Hargreaves Services ( (GB:HSP) ) has provided an announcement.
Hargreaves Services reported a strong first-half performance for the six months to 30 November 2025, with revenue up 46.1% to £183.1m and profit before tax surging 169.8% to £14.3m, driven largely by growth in its Services division on major infrastructure projects and supported by profitable contributions from Hargreaves Land and the HRMS joint venture. The Group’s cash position more than doubled to £37.3m, aided by the completion of the first tranche sale of its renewable energy land assets for £8.8m, enabling the Board to announce plans for a cash return of up to £15m via a tender offer at a premium to the current share price, alongside a 5.4% increase in the interim dividend and confirmation of a CEO succession, with long-standing chief executive Gordon Banham set to step down in July 2026 to be succeeded by COO Simon Hicks. With 90% of Services revenue already contracted for the current financial year and strong visibility in Land and HRMS, the company expects its Services division to outperform previous market forecasts and now anticipates full-year profit before tax and EBITDA to be around 4% ahead of expectations, signalling improved earnings momentum and a more assertive capital-return posture for shareholders.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:HSP) stock is a Buy with a £716.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Hargreaves Services stock, see the GB:HSP Stock Forecast page.
