HERCULES PLC - FY Results

Hercules PLC delivered a strong FY 2025 investor update, reporting record financial results and continued strategic progress across UK infrastructure markets. Revenue increased 19% to £121.2 million, while underlying EBITDA rose 35% to £6.4 million, supported by strong demand in the labour supply division, organic growth, and contributions from acquisitions including Advantage NRG and QTT. Underlying profit before tax grew 55% to £4.0 million, with operating cash generation of £7.6 million and year-end cash of £7.2 million. The company highlighted an expanded order pipeline across water, rail, nuclear, power and energy, supported by major UK infrastructure investment programmes including AMP8, Network Rail CP7 and energy transition projects. Management also outlined progress on governance, internal controls and IT systems following audit-related process issues, with remediation largely complete and new Pay and Bill and ERP platforms underway. Hercules’ growth strategy remains focused on margin improvement, targeted M&A, cross-selling opportunities, regional expansion in Scotland, and scaling its skilled workforce through the Hercules Construction Academy. With over 1,700 operatives, blue-chip clients, and exposure to long-term infrastructure investment, Hercules PLC said it is well positioned to deliver further revenue growth, improved margins and shareholder value.
