Speedy Hire (LSE:SDY) has reported full-year revenue of £416.6 million for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2025—a modest decline amid ongoing market pressures and delays in public sector expenditure. Despite the headwinds, the company continues to execute its “Velocity” strategy, aimed at driving long-term growth and sustaining shareholder value.
Key initiatives over the year included continued investment in its hire fleet, upgrades to digital infrastructure, and the successful renewal and acquisition of several multi-year contracts. These developments, alongside a recently completed refinancing of its debt facilities, are expected to bolster Speedy’s operational capacity and growth prospects going forward.
While financial indicators such as a negative P/E ratio and rising leverage warrant investor caution, strong cash flow management and recent insider share purchases suggest internal confidence in the company’s direction. A high dividend yield adds an element of attractiveness for income-focused investors, even as technical signals point to potential volatility.
