BUSINESS UPDATE: CONTINUING TO BUILD ON 2025 GROWTH

  • Strong start to 2026, building on organic and acquisitive growth in 2025
  • Proforma EBITDA grows to ~$130 million* in FY’25
  • End-market diversification increasing; 50% of business mix from renewables, mining, infrastructure, defence and government sectors, up from 25% in FY’24
  • Continued geographic expansion with 13 new locations added in 2025
  • Continued delivery across global regions, supporting customers in complex and remote environments across multiple industries

Centurion (“Centurion”, or “the Group”), a global leader in equipment rentals, sales and services to a range of critical industries for complex, challenging and remote locations, has entered 2026 with strong momentum, continuing to drive growth, increase cash generation, and continue its geographic and industry expansion strategy.

Pre-audit results for FY’25 indicate an increase in EBITDA and cash generation from FY’24, with EBITDA having grown from ~$105m in FY’24 to ~$130 million* in FY’25. This continues the Group’s track record of strong growth over the last 8 years from ~$30m at the time of formation in 2017 to ~$130m at the end of FY’25.

The Group has also continued its strategy to diversify its business mix, with over 50% of its activity coming from renewables, minerals, infrastructure, defence, and government sectors compared to 25% in FY’24.

This strategy is further supported by recent acquisitions, including the addition of Trand Inc. (Trand), a US-based provider of crane services supporting wind turbine repair and maintenance. The acquisition strengthens Centurion’s capabilities in the onshore wind sector and enhances its heavy lifting services offering in the United States.

Centurion has scaled significantly through a combination of organic growth and acquisitions, having completed 24 acquisitions since its formation in December 2017.

Euan Leask, Chief Executive Officer of Centurion, said:

“Centurion started 2026 in a strong position and our teams have worked hard to continue this positive momentum throughout the first quarter. Despite ongoing economic uncertainty, we have continued to drive a solid financial performance, demonstrating the resilience and strength of our business model.

“Our growth from FY’24 through FY’25 reflects that our strategy is working – we are continuing to expand our end-markets and geographic reach whilst building on our core business.

“With our strong financial position and clear strategy, we are well positioned to continue to drive growth across our key global markets and expand our capabilities across multiple industries to drive sustainable growth in 2026 and beyond.”
