An announcement from Victrex ( (GB:VCT) ) is now available.

Victrex reported a solid start to FY 2025, with Q1 revenue up 9% and volume up 20% compared to the previous year. Despite this progress, trading conditions remain mixed, particularly in the Medical sector due to industry destocking. The company expects significant growth in its mega-programmes, such as Aerospace Composites and E-mobility, and anticipates improved cash flow and profitability supported by cost control and lower raw material costs. While full-year expectations remain unchanged, profit growth is expected to be more substantial in the second half of the year due to various factors, including currency impacts and costs from a new China facility.
