Headlam Group PLC Reports Wider Loss for First Half of 2025
Headlam Group PLC, a distributor of floor coverings listed on the London Stock Exchange, announced that its financial performance for the first half of 2025 fell short of expectations.
- Profitability – The company recorded a larger loss for the period compared with the corresponding half‑year in the previous year.
- Revenue – Total sales decreased by 4 % year‑on‑year.
- Share Price – Following the release of the results, Headlam’s shares declined by approximately 8 % on the London Stock Exchange.
The loss widening and revenue contraction were highlighted in a half‑year 2025 investor presentation released on 17 September 2025. The presentation, which is available to shareholders and the public, provides a detailed overview of the company’s operational metrics, cost structure and market outlook.
In addition to the financial update, Headlam disclosed that it will be divesting two of its subsidiaries. On 23 September 2025, the company announced the sale of its French and Dutch operations, a move that is expected to streamline its core business and improve profitability.
The company’s market capitalization remains around £4.87 billion, with a recent share price of £61 and a 52‑week low of £60. The stock has been under pressure following the earnings announcement, reflecting investor concerns about the sustained loss trend and the impact of the divestments on future revenue streams.
