Analyst projections of the future price of NCC Group stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
NCC Group delivered strong operational improvement in H1 FY26, with adjusted EBITDA up 27.7% to £23.5m, revenue up 5.0% on a constant-currency basis and a record Cyber gross margin of 38.4%. (NCC Group interim results)
The Escode disposal created a substantially more focused pure-play Cyber business and funded £185m of planned shareholder returns, including a £170m tender offer at 145p per share and a further £15m buyback. (NCC Group Escode disposal; Tender offer results)
Revenue quality is improving as Consulting & Implementation plus Managed Services reached 55.8% of H1 Cyber revenue, while Managed Services grew 4.7% year over year on a constant-currency basis. (NCC Group interim results)
Cyber revenue growth remains modest at 5.9% in H1 FY26, while the Cyber division generated only £8.3m of adjusted EBITDA including central costs, leaving execution and margin-expansion risk. (NCC Group interim results)
The strategic review ruled out a sale of the company and ended takeover-related optionality, meaning shareholders are now reliant on management delivering the standalone Cyber strategy organically. (NCC Group strategic review)
Selling Escode removes a profitable and cash-generative business: Escode produced £15.2m of H1 adjusted EBITDA versus £8.3m for Cyber, increasing the group’s concentration in a still-transforming Cyber operation. (NCC Group interim results)
