Luxfer Holdings PLC has reported strong financial results for the year 2025, highlighting significant cash flow generation and adjusted earnings growth. The company achieved a net income of $13.1 million, or $0.48 per diluted share, with adjusted diluted EPS
increasing by 12.1% to $1.11.

The company anticipates a mid-single-digit reduction in sales due to temporary timing effects but remains focused on strategic growth. Luxfer will continue to execute operational excellence initiatives and explore M&A opportunities to scale its business. The upcoming earnings teleconference will provide further insights into Luxfer's 2026 guidance and strategic priorities.
