Rosebank Industries (LSE:ROSE) has upgraded its full-year expectations after newly acquired businesses MW Components and CPM delivered a stronger-than-anticipated start following their acquisitions. The group has also accelerated restructuring initiatives, reducing central and head office costs while committing $30 million to projects aimed at increasing production capacity and operational efficiency. At MW Components, the business is being reorganised into three independent divisions, with site rationalisation and head office closures expected to generate at least $15 million in annual savings. Meanwhile, CPM is streamlining its organisational structure, targeting annual cost reductions of at least $10 million while strengthening its aftermarket business through the acquisition of a distribution company.
ECI continued to perform in line with management’s full-year expectations despite a 4% fall in revenue, reflecting the company’s planned withdrawal from lower-margin appliance and HVAC markets. Growth in higher-margin electrification and industrial operations reached 9%, helping adjusted operating margins improve to 16.1%. Supported by the performance of its recent acquisitions and ongoing operational improvements, Rosebank now expects adjusted operating profit and adjusted earnings per share for 2026 to exceed analyst forecasts. The company also believes the momentum at MW Components and CPM positions the group for continued earnings growth into 2027.
