Weir Group plc (The) ( (GB:WEIR) ) has shared an update.

Weir Group reported a robust 2025 performance, with constant-currency orders up 7%, revenue up 6% and adjusted operating profit rising 15%, lifting margins to just over 20%. Growth was driven by strong aftermarket demand, expanding mining activity and high-margin software, including a 24% annualised increase in Micromine recurring revenue, even as statutory profit was weighed by acquisition-related factors and higher net debt.

The company accelerated its growth strategy through acquisitions of Micromine, Fast2Mine, Townley and ESEL, plus new technology partnerships and product launches that expand its addressable market in digital mining, North American phosphates and sustainable tailings solutions. Management expects further revenue growth and margin expansion in 2026, underpinned by additional cost savings from its Performance Excellence programme, full-year benefits from recent deals and long-term demand for critical minerals, positioning Weir as a key productivity partner to the global mining sector.

The most recent analyst rating on (GB:WEIR) stock is a Buy with a £4000.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Weir Group plc (The) stock, see the GB:WEIR Stock Forecast page.
