Volume Growth: Ibstock saw significant volume growth in H1 2025, mainly from recovering new-build residential demand, outpacing the overall UK brick market.
Cost Pressures: Higher-than-expected incremental costs from reactivating factory capacity and a competitive pricing environment led to lower margins and EBITDA in the first half.
Margin Impact: Adjusted EBITDA fell 6% year-on-year to approximately GBP 36 million, and EBITDA margin dropped by 280 basis points due to cost and mix headwinds.
Full-Year Guidance: Management expects H2 EBITDA to be ahead of the prior year period and maintains full-year EBITDA guidance of GBP 77–82 million.
Strategic Progress: Diversified growth and capital deployment remain on track, with Ibstock Futures and major investments like Atlas and Nostell progressing well.
Outlook: The company anticipates continued sales volume growth in H2, improved profitability as operational efficiency ramps up, and free cash flow acceleration from 2026.
