The company maintained its outstanding cash performance, remaining debt-free and closing the year with £50.7 million in cash, up £8.4 million on 2023.

Over the year, the Group secured more than £637 million in new contracts and orders, closing 2024 with a forward order book worth over £1.26 billion. By the end of March 2025, that figure had risen to £1.32 billion, representing 104% of planned orders for 2025 and 69% for 2026.

Key wins in early 2025 include new school projects for the Department for Education, renewal works at the Barbican, and prison construction contracts for the Ministry of Justice.
