Vanessa Jeffriess’s rating is based on a combination of factors that reflect both positive and cautious elements in Dowlais Group PLC’s recent performance. The company’s EBIT for the first half of 2025 exceeded expectations, driven by strong results from GKN Auto, and there was notable progress in margin improvement. However, despite these positive developments, the company experienced a significant decline in new bookings, which aligns with trends observed in other suppliers.
Additionally, while sales figures were slightly below expectations, the company’s EBITA and profit before tax were above forecasts, indicating operational efficiency. The company’s free cash flow and net debt levels also showed a better-than-expected position. These mixed signals suggest a stable outlook, justifying the Hold rating as the company navigates both opportunities and challenges in the market.
In another report released on July 23, TR | OpenAI – 4o also reiterated a Hold rating on the stock with a p76.00 price target.
