John Graham Holdings Limited has posted its financial results for the year ended 31^st March 2025, showing a 6% decline in revenue to £1.06bn (2024: £1.12bn).

However, profit before tax was up 71% to £25.2m (2024: £14.8m, while gross profit improved to £73m, and cash reserves grew to £192.5m.

This was attributed to disciplined contract selection, robust commercial management and a focus on long-term value creation.

New contract awards during the year included the £90m D3 deep-water terminal for Belfast Harbour Commissioners and several school building projects for the Department of Education’s school rebuilding programme.

 Other notable awards included a £124.5m student accommodation scheme in Glasgow for Unite and a £100m mixed-use development in Leeds for Latimer. The latter was one of the first high rise buildings to achieve Gateway 2 approval from the Building Safety Regulator.

Graham also secured a place on National Highways’ multi-billion-pound road renewals framework.

Since the end of the financial year, Graham has added to its leadership team with the appointment of Johnny Hall to the board as chief operating officer in May 2025. The company also appointed a new group quality director and a group director for ESG (environmental, social and governance).

The board said that, with a record order book, a healthy forward pipeline and a strong balance sheet, the group “is well-positioned for controlled growth”.

Chief executive Andrew Bill said: “Our performance in FY 2025 reflects the strength of our people, our strategic focus, and our commitment to delivering lasting impact. We are encouraged by the progress made and excited about the opportunities ahead as we continue to build a resilient, sustainable future.”
