Hill & Smith PLC (LSE:HILS) reported a strong trading performance for the four months to October 2025, driven largely by robust results in its US Engineered Solutions and Galvanizing Services divisions. While UK market conditions remained challenging, the group still delivered 3% revenue growth on an organic constant-currency basis and reiterated confidence in meeting its full-year profit targets. Hill & Smith also expanded and extended its bank borrowing facilities, underscoring its healthy financial footing. As part of an ongoing leadership transition, the company confirmed that Nick Anderson will take over as Chair in May 2026.
The broader outlook for Hill & Smith Holdings remains constructive, supported by solid earnings momentum and strategic initiatives such as the share buyback programme. Technical indicators signal continued strength, though an overbought RSI points to the need for some caution. Valuation levels sit in a moderate range, offering a measured balance of risk and reward.
