Ansell AGM 2025 Presentations (with trading update)
- Strong financial performance in FY25 with Adjusted EPS of 126.1 cents
- Successful integration of Kimberly-Clark's Personal Protective Equipment business (KBU)
- Accelerated Productivity Investment Program (APIP) delivering savings and productivity gains
Ansell Limited reported a strong financial performance in FY25, with Adjusted Earnings Per Share coming in at 126.1 cents, a significant step up from the prior year. The results were driven by good growth in both the Industrial and Healthcare segments, as well as the successful integration of the Kimberly-Clark Personal Protective Equipment business (KBU) acquisition. The company's Accelerated Productivity Investment Program (APIP) also delivered $47 million in savings during the year, with the organizational and manufacturing phases now complete. Looking ahead, Ansell is focused on upgrading its commercial ERP systems, which will further improve its digital capabilities and unlock additional productivity improvements. The company also continues to make progress on its sustainability commitments, including achieving its net zero emissions targets and expanding its supplier management framework to address labor rights risks. While the company faced some headwinds from higher raw material and freight costs, it was able to offset these through pricing actions and reduced usage of air freight. Overall, Ansell demonstrated its ability to deliver strong financial and operational performance, while also making progress on its strategic priorities.
Ansell is increasing its guidance range for FY26 Adjusted Earnings Per Share from 133 to 145 US cents to 137 to 149 US cents, based on solid sales performance, favorable foreign exchange trends, lower freight costs, and continued delivery of KBU synergies and manufacturing productivity gains.
Ansell looks forward to building on the momentum from FY25 in the current financial year, with a focus on maximizing the potential of its enhanced cleanroom, laboratory and industrial safety solutions following the successful integration of the KBU business.
