This page treats a rise as over when the price closes below its 200-day average on two Fridays in a row. ## What dividend does Luxfer Holdings pay? Luxfer Holdings PLC paid $0.52 per share over the last four reported quarters. The most recent declaration was $0.13 for Jun 2026. At today's price of $17.20 that is a yield of 3.02%, based on dividends already paid, not a forecast. ## Which stock lists is Luxfer Holdings on? Luxfer Holdings is not in the Nasdaq 100, the S&P 500 or the Dow Jones 30, and is not on the US tech stocks list. ## Is Luxfer Holdings profitable? Luxfer Holdings PLC earned $4.8 M of net profit in the Jun 2026 quarter, +84.6% on the same quarter a year earlier. Full-year FY25 profit was $9.4 M. Over 4 years profit has grown −25.1% a year on average. That is 5.0% of the quarter's revenue. The same quarter a year earlier earned $2.6 M. 3 of the last 12 reported quarters were loss-making. For the full year, FY25 profit was $9.4 M (−52.0% on the year before). Why profit moved: revenue changed −10.2% on a year earlier and the margin moved −0.3 percentage points. Sales did the work, and the margin was about flat. On average over the last four quarters, profit changed −39.6% and revenue −10.5%. Profit is growing slower than sales: rising costs are taking part of the growth. ## How much revenue does Luxfer Holdings make, and is it growing? Luxfer Holdings PLC reported $95.7 M of revenue in the Jun 2026 quarter, −10.2% on the same quarter a year earlier. Over 4 years it has grown 0.7% a year on average. The last full year, FY25, came in at $385 M. The last four reported quarters add to $365 M. FY25 revenue was $385 M, −1.9% on the year before. Recent pace: the last four quarters grew −10.5% on average, against 0.7% a year over the longer run, so this year is growing slower than its own long-run rate. Is growth speeding up? Revenue over the last 12 months grew −10.5%, against −4.1% a year over the last 8 quarters (rolling over); profit over the last 12 months grew −62.0%, against +31.6% a year (rolling over). ## How much of every $100 of sales does Luxfer Holdings keep? Luxfer Holdings PLC's operating margin was 9.7% in the Jun 2026 quarter, 0.3 percentage points lower than the same quarter a year ago. Across 5 years it has been between 3.9% and 12.6%. The latest quarter is within that range. Why the margin moved: operating margin changed −0.3 percentage points on the year while gross margin changed +2.4 points. So the drop came mostly from the gross margin, which means input costs and prices charged. ## Is Luxfer Holdings' profit turning into cash? Over the last 3 years, 211% of Luxfer Holdings PLC's reported profit came in as cash from its operations, so the profit is backed by cash. In FY25 it brought in $41.4 M of operating cash against $9.4 M of profit. After $7.8 M of spending on assets, $33.6 M was left over as free cash. Cash-flow figures here are yearly, because quarterly cash statements are not published, so this section changes once a year. Why: the cash figure is clear, but the day counts behind it are not in our data, so we show it without guessing the reason. What to look at next: the main use of cash is spending on assets. The next section checks what that spending is building. ## Where does Luxfer Holdings' cash go? Luxfer Holdings PLC does not report the customer, stock and supplier day counts a cash cycle needs, so this section looks at its spending on assets instead. It spent $27.5 M on assets over the last 3 years. Averaged over those years that is 2.4% of FY25 revenue a year. Nothing is estimated in place of the missing day counts, so no cash-cycle chart is drawn. Spending on assets: $27.5 M over the last 3 years. In short: the cash is going into new capacity, not getting stuck in the daily cycle. The question is whether the new capacity earns. ## What is Luxfer Holdings' P/E ratio, and how does it compare with its own history? Luxfer Holdings PLC's P/E is 60.9×, with too little history to compare. This compares the share price with the company’s own past. It does not say what the business is worth. Why the multiple is where it is: over the past year earnings per share moved −52.8% while the price moved +41.0%. The price did better than earnings, which pushed the multiple up within its own range. In short: there is too little history to say whether the multiple is high or low for this company, so the earnings trend underneath matters more than the multiple. ## Is the Luxfer Holdings business getting better or worse? Luxfer Holdings PLC's business is getting worse. Revenue, profit and EPS growth are shrinking: revenue growth is −10.5% in the latest quarter, against +4.0% at its best in 12 quarters, with ROCE steady at 12.1%. This is based on 12 quarters of 4 measures. Why it matters: falling lines mean any ratio below that looks low should be read with that direction in mind. ## How much does Luxfer Holdings earn on its capital? Luxfer Holdings PLC earned a ROE of 4% in FY25. That is up from a low of −1% in FY23. Its return on capital used (ROIC) is 1.9 percentage points below its cost of capital, so growth here does not yet pay for the capital it uses. It comes from a 2.4% net margin and 1.07× asset turnover (sales divided by assets). Why the return is what it is (FY25): a 2.4% net margin × 1.07× asset turnover × 1.67× leverage (assets divided by equity) ≈ 4.3% on equity. The margin does its share; borrowing is a big part of it. The key test, return on capital used minus the cost of capital: 7.7% − 9.6% = −1.9 percentage points. The 9.6% is an estimate of this company's own cost of capital. Read the sign and size of the gap, not the decimals. Negative: growth at these returns loses value until returns improve. The 7.7% ROIC above is the latest reading, as reported. The yearly chart below shows FY25 at 9.5%, and the quarterly chart works out each 12-month window from the quarterly figures, so the readings differ by date, not by method. ## Does Luxfer Holdings have too much debt? Luxfer Holdings PLC has total debt of $69.4 M against shareholder equity of $223 M as of Jun 2026, so its debt is 0.31× its equity. Year by year, that ratio went from 0.35 in FY21 to 0.24 in FY25. Keep that borrowing in mind when reading the returns on this page. ## What is the Luxfer Holdings shareholding pattern? 1.7% of Luxfer Holdings PLC's tradable shares are in short positions, which are bets that the price will fall, so very few traders are betting against this stock. At normal trading volumes, closing those positions would take about 1.1 days. US companies do not publish a quarter-by-quarter list of owners, so this page uses short interest instead. It is a single reading at one point in time; we do not have its history. Why it is at this level: the figure does not say who holds the short positions or why, so we show the level without guessing the story. ## How far is Luxfer Holdings from balance-sheet trouble? For Luxfer Holdings PLC, the Z-score is 3.38. A Z-score above about 3 is safe and below about 1.8 signals danger, so this is well clear of danger. It estimates how far the balance sheet is from trouble; it is not a forecast of failure. Why it matters: a Z-score of 3.38 is well clear of the danger zone, so the balance sheet is not the risk here. ## How does Luxfer Holdings rank in its industry?
