Lords Group Trading PLC ( (GB:LORD) ) has provided an update.
Lords Group Trading PLC reported a 9.6% increase in group revenue for the four months ending October 2025, despite challenges in the UK housing market and subdued demand in its core sectors. The Merchanting division saw a slight decline in like-for-like revenue, but improved gross margins, while the Plumbing and Heating division also faced revenue drops but benefited from strategic management changes. The newly formed Digital division, bolstered by the acquisition of CMO, achieved its first profitable months, contributing significantly to the revenue growth. The company expects full-year revenue between £480m and £485m, with adjusted EBITDA of £20m to £21m, and remains confident in its strategic growth plans despite market uncertainties.
The most recent analyst rating on (GB:LORD) stock is a Hold with a £34.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Lords Group Trading PLC stock, see the GB:LORD Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GB:LORD Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GB:LORD is a Neutral.
Lords Group Trading PLC’s overall stock score reflects financial challenges, including declining revenues and a net loss, which weigh heavily on the score. Technical indicators suggest bearish momentum, further impacting the score. Valuation metrics are weak, with a negative P/E ratio, although the dividend yield offers some support. The absence of earnings call data and corporate events means these factors do not influence the score.
