RWS Holdings plc Reports Return to Growth in FY26 Trading Statement

RWS Holdings expects FY26 revenue of approximately £700 million, up around 3% organically at constant currency, marking a return to growth. Adjusted profit before tax is forecast to rise about 9%, with an adjusted margin of roughly 9.4%; strong cash conversion left net debt at approximately £38 million, including the initial £16.5 million payment for the Obviously Group acquisition. The company said its Generate and Protect segments are driving profitable growth, while Transform is shifting toward AI-led technology, with a new translation management platform due to launch next month. RWS also expects its acquisition of Acolad to complete shortly; full-year results are scheduled for December 15, 2026.
