AGM Trading Update
Trading in-line; full-year guidance maintained
Morgan Advanced Materials plc, the global leader in advanced ceramics and carbon systems for technologically demanding applications, announces a trading update in advance of its 2026 Annual General Meeting being held later today.
Current Trading
During the first quarter, we continued to see broad based order intake stability across the Group's divisions and end-markets. Noting the weak prior year comparator, and as expected, the Group delivered organic constant currency revenue1 growth of 6.2%.
2026 Outlook
Q1 trading was in line with expectations and our full year outlook for 2026 remains unchanged.
We have not observed any material direct or indirect trading impact from the conflict in the Middle East in Q1, and are responding through pricing to offset inflationary impacts. We will continue to monitor this evolving situation including any further impact from the situation becoming prolonged.
Damien Caby, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"Our Q1 trading was in line with our expectations and today we reconfirm our full year guidance for 2026. We are making good progress against our strategic priorities, including the strategic review of Thermal Products, and continue to focus on executing at pace against the strategy set out at our December 2025 Capital Markets Day."
