HOW IS THE BUSINESS PERFORMING?
In 2024, revenue increased by a tenth and adjusted operating profit rose by 22% to £20.3 million, meaning the operating margin on sales increased by 1.7% to 18.2% reflecting positive operating leverage and efficiency gains (positive operating leverage is the effect on profit of costs rising less than revenue).
The business achieved 115% cash conversion, in line with the three-year average, allowing it to maintain a net cash pile of around £30 million despite investing £4.8 million in the business, spending £17 million on acquisitions and paying out £1.5 million to shareholders in dividends.
The company says trading so far in the financial year to August 2025 has been strong and it expects adjusted operating profit to be slightly ahead of consensus, which it estimates to be £21.5 million.
In the medium term, the company is targeting 10% organic revenue growth and further margin expansion to 20%.
In summary, we believe AB Dynamics has been working hard under the bonnet to position the business advantageously to exploit strong industry tailwinds and increase shareholder value. |

In line seems to be bottom line, so prob not much fireworks on share price today? |
update sounds good |
Yes, very positive webinar. |
Tuesday's FY Results were strong; revenue up 10% , Pretax Profit 22%.Looks like new highs on the horizon. |
So all47fish... you think ABDs share price is staying low because it is on AIM?? |
so what do we do as invesors leave aim or wait in the hope of aim becoming viable |
Iht is charged to an estate on death. |
thats bad and when deos the tax becomes due -on sale i suppose |
No. Isa gives protection from income tax and capital gains tax but no protection from iht. |
since this share qualifies normally for relief- please can someone clarify if the shares are held in an isa then the investment is shelterted from this tax |
looks like IHT relief was responsible for share price weakness after all. |
also the automotive sector is under pressure so cut backs in R&D spending inevitable |
certainly ABs share sale to raise £3m will be to avoid CGT- and has put 115000 shares into maarketplace which will have lowered price |
evaporating profit margin maybe |
Must be more than that, chart is awful, needs to find one long term support soon. |
It qualifies for IHT relief, maybe being sold ahead of budget in case IHT relief is withdrawn. |
Any reason why this is getting hammered currently? |
FWIW: Regular support from Octopus ... |
This is whom was bought ...
