Restore PLC (LSE:RST) has reported a solid financial performance for the first half of 2025, with revenue climbing 15% to £160.1 million, largely fueled by recent acquisitions. The company also achieved a 17.7% adjusted operating margin, while adjusted profit before tax rose 10% year-on-year to £18.0 million.
Although net debt increased as a result of acquisition activity, Restore maintained healthy cash flow generation and announced a 10% boost to its interim dividend, underscoring management’s confidence in the business.
Key strategic developments during the period included the award of a major medical record digitization contract with Oxford University Hospitals, as well as progress in consolidating its Information Management real estate footprint. These initiatives are aligned with the company’s medium-term ambition of achieving a 20% adjusted operating margin.
Looking ahead, Restore remains optimistic, supported by a strong operational track record and strategic growth drivers. However, some market analysts note that the company’s elevated valuation and technical indicators signal potential caution. Despite this, Restore’s continued focus on integration, operational efficiency, and high-margin services offers a compelling long-term investment case.
