UK and ROI sales growth
UK and ROI delivered sales growth of 2.3% in the year
page 8International market weakness
Sales in the Group's international markets were 4.0% below the prior year, reflecting the continued impact of global geopolitical instability
page 6Raw material, labour and energy cost inflation
Increases in raw material cost pressure softened in 2025, but ongoing geopolitical and macroeconomic issues continued to impact costs; labour inflation pressures remained, including the increase in UK National Living Wage
page 9Fixed-price energy contracts and solar panels
The Board continued to take advantage of competitively priced energy contracts and agreed to a fixed term for both gas and electricity; ongoing use of solar panels at manufacturing site mitigated some risk
page 9£110k charge: Temporary third-party storage costs (new tiling line investment)
page 47The Board is pleased with the Group's overall performance in the year against a backdrop of global economic and geopolitical challenges... The new manufacturing facility is expected to be fully operational in the coming months and will provide a strong platform for building a more sustainable and growth-focused business.
page 6Trade finance facility of £3.2m (secured November 2024) was renewed in February 2026
page 9Progressive dividend policy; proposed final dividend of £0.39m or 1.00p per share for FY2025 (2024: £0.23m or 0.60p per share), the fifth consecutive year of dividend growth, as no interim dividend was paid. Final dividend to be paid 20 May 2026 to shareholders on the register on 24 April 2026, subject to AGM approval on 6 May 2026.
page 6Unqualified ('true and fair') audit opinion from Crowe U.K. LLP (Daniel Town, Senior Statutory Auditor). Directors concluded the going concern basis is appropriate based on cashflow projections to 31 December 2027, stress-tested for a 10% revenue reduction combined with a 10% cost increase with no mitigating actions; the Group retained adequate headroom against total banking facilities under the worst-case scenario. Bank facilities were renewed in January 2026. Key Audit Matters: (1) valuation of the defined benefit pension scheme, and (2) carrying value of investments in subsidiaries (new KAM for FY2025, given declining market capitalisation and headroom sensitivity in the discounted cash flow impairment model).
