What the Analysts think about Goodwin

Analyst projections of the future price of Goodwin stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Goodwin delivered record FY2026 trading profit of £77.5m, up 118%, on revenue up 27% to £280m. The company linked the advance to rising demand for technically demanding engineering products, including defence and nuclear castings. (London Stock Exchange)
The agreed sale of the Mechanical Engineering businesses carries headline cash consideration of up to about £1.1bn, and Goodwin intends to return a significant proportion of the net proceeds to shareholders. A successful sale would also let management focus on the businesses that remain. (London Stock Exchange)
The retained operations show pockets of growth: overseas refractory profits rose 19% to £3.1m in the first four months of the year, while AVD Fire and Dupré Minerals’ combined profits rose 30% to £1.0m. Goodwin also reported strengthening international demand for AVD Fire’s lithium-ion battery protection products. (London Stock Exchange)
The sale is not yet complete: it depends on regulatory approvals and an internal reorganisation, and the stated consideration is an approximate maximum subject to closing adjustments. The board has not settled the amount, timing or form of the shareholder return. (London Stock Exchange, London Stock Exchange)
After the sale, Goodwin will retain businesses that generated £10m of operating profit in FY2026. That leaves a much smaller earnings base than the current group, making the investment case more dependent on the retained operations’ future growth. (London Stock Exchange)
Duvelco’s production bottleneck is limiting output to about 20% of plant capacity, and its loss widened to £1.7m in the first four months of the year. The proposed dryer has an indicated lead time of about ten months, with the implementation timetable still uncertain. (London Stock Exchange)
