Executive summary
Delivered improved margins and robust trading performance in 2025 despite lower end-market demand and global tariff changes, with results in line with prior guidance and positive free cash flow.
Strategic focus on specialty products, cost savings, and portfolio simplification drove resilience and operational progress, supported by ongoing transformation towards specialty chemicals.
Refinanced bank facilities, extending maturities to 2029 and resetting covenants, ensuring financial stability.

excellent app, it gives me free access to company earnings calls and annual reports. I also love the convenience of calls being available offline so I can listen in whilst doing other things and even when internet or WiFi isn't available.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
