ROBERTSON Group has announced a return to profit despite a slight dip in revenue in its financial results for the year ended 30 June 2025.
Revenue was £793 million compared with £824 million the previous year. However, pre-tax profit was £20.2 million – a significant improvement on the £9.7 million loss in 2024.
Cash balance at year end was £74 million (2024: £82 million) with no external debt.
Robertson Construction Group delivered revenue of £575 million, with a number of its regional businesses said to have exceeded their business plans.
Robertson added that the portfolio of six defined businesses is delivering ‘in line with business plans’. £1 billion of social value has also been delivered – five years ahead of target – as part of the Robertson Group 2030 Responsible Business Strategy. And carbon intensity has been reduced by 73.72% in the last 10 years
Elliot Robertson, CEO, Robertson Group, said, “2025 saw the group focus on quality over quantity and recover a strong financial position following disappointing results in 2024. A full review and embedding enhanced governance processes have seen a positive year of performances across the portfolio of businesses, returning us to profitability with a healthy order book for 2026, our 60th year of trading.
“Our portfolio of businesses is a resilient model and having significantly evolved our management framework over six clearly defined and separate operating businesses, each with its own highly competent and experienced executive team, we are in a strong position to assure a sustainable future for our employees, business partners and the communities we serve.
“Despite a challenging and competitive marketplace, the strength of our relationships with our customers and supplier base creates a collaborative working environment where our products and services are delivered with certainty and to the highest standard.
“Our opportunities and success are underpinned by the quality of the people who make up Team Robertson, and our on-going commitment to employees is recognised through our ambition to achieve Investors in People Platinum, having secured the same accreditation as Investors in Young People.
“Our number one priority remains the safety, health and wellbeing of our employees and all who come into contact with our operations. Our ‘Home Safe’ ethos and training have been in place for over six years and since being extended to our supply chain over three years ago, over 10,000 individuals connected with our business have attended the course.
“We enter the new financial year with a strong return to profitability, strength in our balance sheet and improved order book visibility.”
