Eurocell, the UK manufacturer and distributor of window and door products, issued a cautious trading update for the first four months of 2026 ahead of its AGM. Trading conditions remained subdued, with challenging macro conditions and weak consumer confidence compounded by uncertainty over the impact of Middle East conflict on demand and supply chains, affecting both the RMI market and new build housing. Group sales for the four months to 30 April rose 9% on 2025, but excluding the Alunet acquisition were up just 1%, improving to +5% in April. The core Profiles division saw sales fall 4% on reduced RMI activity and a lack of new build call-off. Strategic initiatives offset some of this, with window and door sales up 29%, e-commerce up 40% and garden rooms up 6%. A c.£4m Alunet earnout payment is expected shortly. Vs consensus: No explicit full-year guidance figure was given in the update; the company describes trading conditions as subdued, with the 9% headline sales growth flattered by the Alunet acquisition and underlying sales excluding Alunet up only 1% as the core Profiles division declined 4%. Verdict: IN-LINE

Between 20 March 2025 and 16 February 2026, a total of 3,478,173 Ordinary Shares in the Company were repurchased on the London Stock Exchange at an average price of £1.44 per share. All of the repurchased shares were purchased for cancellation.

So the 5m buy back has completed. During which time the share price only seemed to go down. I will interesting to see if there are still sellers, and what the price does now the buy back is not there to support the price a little. I doubled up at 124p before Christmas, if price goes near there again, im having some more. My long held thesis here is a take private. I base this on a deep forensic investigation into actions rather than words.

Does anybody know how much the business rates increase will hit Eurocell this year?

AI seems to think that they’ll be absolutely hammered (can’t recall the exact estimates, but it’s comfortably in the millions)

I have noticed that since the share price drop after last months results, management have doubled the amount of shares that are being bought back, seems a shrewd move at the lower price and i have also topped up my holding as this is a solid Company, but would like to see a bit of share price recovery.

I thought we would have got a bit of a lift and a positive feed across to the share price this morning after the raised guidance and strong consumer demand indication from Kingfisher.
