Chief Executive Officer Graham Sutherland said:
“We have delivered a robust performance in H1 2026, made further progress in growing and diversifying the business and maintained our positive earnings trajectory. In the second half, we will benefit from the actions we have taken to restructure the business as well as the contribution of our recent acquisitions and expect modest growth in our adjusted earnings per share for the full year.
“Our focus remains on the delivery of our commitments, including the successful execution of our UK focused growth strategy. Underpinned by our strong balance sheet and disciplined capital allocation policy, we are well placed to deliver further benefits for all our stakeholders.”
