GB:GFTU

Grafton

(LSE:GFTU)

Select Model
Rating:70Outperform
Price Target:GBX 1,042.00â–²(5.25% Upside)
Action:reiterated
Date:09/15/26

The score is driven primarily by solid financial quality (strong cash conversion and a healthy balance sheet) and supportive valuation (moderate P/E plus ~4% yield). This is tempered by weaker technicals (downward momentum with the stock below key moving averages) and operational headwinds noted on the earnings call, especially continued pressure in Great Britain despite reaffirmed guidance and positive strategic progress.

Positive Factors
Broad-based first-half growthGrowth in revenue, operating profit and EPS indicates improving trading performance across the group rather than reliance on a single earnings measure. The combination supports reinvestment, strengthens operating scale and provides a durable foundation for performance over the next several quarters.
Negative Factors
Great Britain weaknessThe sharp decline in British revenue and profit exposes Grafton to a material regional earnings drag, particularly because management expects conditions to remain challenging. Persistently weak housing and home-improvement activity could continue depressing volumes and branch profitability over the medium term.

Grafton Earnings Call Summary

Earnings Call Date:Sep 02, 2026(Q2-2026)|% Change Since:-0.95%|Next Earnings Date:Mar 10, 2027
Earnings Call SentimentPositive

The call was predominantly positive: the group delivered solid revenue, profit and EPS growth, increased the interim dividend, generated strong cash flow, completed well-performing acquisitions and reaffirmed full-year guidance and long-term targets. These strengths outweighed the significant challenges in Great Britain, subdued conditions in the Netherlands, higher finance and tax costs, inflationary pressures and lower ROCE.

Positive Updates

Solid First-Half Group Performance
Revenue increased 6.7% to £1.34 billion, adjusted operating profit rose 8.2% to £98.5 million, and adjusted earnings per share increased 10.8% to 39.4p.

Negative Updates

Great Britain Revenue Decline
Great Britain revenue declined 5.1% year on year to £367.2 million, with average daily like-for-like revenue down by the same amount. All GB businesses reported like-for-like revenue declines.

Company Guidance

The group reconfirmed full year operating profit guidance between NOK 190 million and NOK 200 million, currently expects a finance charge of £15 million to £16 million, and said the effective tax rate of 19.8% is its assumed rate for the full year; it proposed to increase the interim dividend by 2% to 11p per share, after also stating that it increased the interim dividend by 2.3%. For H2, it expects to continue to perform strongly in the Republic of Ireland, no significant uplift in Northern Ireland, Great Britain market conditions to remain unchanged compared to the first half, Dutch market conditions to be similar to the first half, the gradual recovery in Finland to continue, and continued strong growth in Spain. It expects product inflation on the heavy building material side to be probably closer to 4%, I would say, than 3%, and said 70% to 80% would be a reasonable level and an expectation level for free cash conversion, while 15% to 20% would be a reasonable level of drop through in a recovery. Its 2030 ambitions are CHF 850 million-plus free cash flow cumulatively until the end of 2030, an EPS CAGR greater than 10%, and a normalized markets ROCE of 13% or more by 2030; in Iberia, its target is €1 billion of revenue and a 7% to 10% operating margin.

Grafton Financial Statement Overview

Summary

Overall financials are solid, led by strong cash generation (cash flow score 78; FCF ~86% of net income) and a sound balance sheet (score 74; debt-to-equity ~0.38). The main drag is profitability quality (income statement score 66) with multi-year margin compression from 2021–2022 peaks, keeping the financial profile in the upper-mid range rather than strong.
