#FirstGroup has reported its full-year results for 2025/26, with growth in revenue, earnings and #shareholder returns. Adjusted revenue rose 25% to £1.72bn, while adjusted operating profit was £219.4m, slightly lower due to costs linked to open access rail operations, the transfer of South Western #Railway and accounting changes. Excluding Department for #Transport contracts, operating profit increased 18%. Adjusted earnings per share rose to 20.3p from 19.4p. The group generated £73.8m in free cash flow before acquisitions and shareholder returns, invested around £190m in capital projects, mainly bus electrification, and returned £89m to shareholders. A final dividend of 5.0p per share has been proposed, taking the annual total to 7.2p. A new £100m share buyback programme has also been announced. FirstGroup expects earnings per share to remain stable in 2026/27 and forecasts around £400m of free cash generation over the next three years.
