Structural steelwork specialist Taziker Industrial has returned to profitability following a restructuring process, according to its latest accounts.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Lancashire-based firm\u2019s turnover for the year to 31 March fell back slightly from \u00a382.1m to \u00a381.8m. This partly reflects a \u201cdisappointingly slow\u201d start to the first year in<\/span> Network Rail\u2019s CP7 funding period<\/span><\/a>, according to the accounts.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, the company posted a \u00a31.6m pre-tax profit compared with a \u00a35.7m loss the year before, amid a strategic shift to focus on core services and a business restructuring process that began in October 2023. This involved a cost-saving plan and board-level changes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

In last year\u2019s accounts, chief executive Neil Harrison said he anticipated \u201cthe full benefits\u201d of this strategic review to flow into the firm\u2019s 2025 fiscal year.<\/span><\/p>\n

One measure undertaken in the past 12-month period was the closure of Taziker\u2019s fibre-reinforced polymer division due to \u201cdifficulties in bringing the product to market\u201d, Harrison said in his strategic report.<\/span><\/p>\n

He added that the firm\u2019s bottom line had benefited from the completion of legacy loss-making contracts, and \u201cimproved oversight and controls over contract pricing and project management\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taziker was the seventh-biggest steel contractor by turnover in<\/span> last year\u2019s CN Specialists Index<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the course of its latest financial year, the firm won<\/span> \u00a3150m worth of civils work with Network Rail in Scotland<\/span><\/a>, including preventative structural repairs, and was awarded a place on a framework to deliver \u00a33.5bn of rail-infrastructure improvements in the East of England.<\/span><\/p>\n

These and other awards \u201cwere particularly encouraging given the challenges of the wider economic position and continued pressure on capital spend\u201d, Harrison said.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taziker\u2019s accounts added that the firm had seen \u201ca significant upturn in work\u201d on the Transpennine Route Upgrade, \u201cwhich continues into FY26 [full-year 2026] and beyond\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

The firm\u2019s cash at hand improved from \u00a32.7m the year before to \u00a34m, reflecting what the accounts said was an increase in EBITDA from a loss of \u00a34.9m to a \u00a33.7m profit. There were no repayable short-term or long-term bank loans.<\/span><\/p>\n

Taziker employed a monthly average of 377 staff in 2024-25, marking an 11 per cent decrease on its headcount of 423 the year before.<\/span><\/p>\n

No dividends were paid out.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since the period covered by the accounts, the firm has won a place on a<\/span> \u00a3750m framework from Peel Ports<\/span><\/a>. Harrison said Taziker had forward orders stretching into the 2027 financial year, \u201cwhich provides greater optimism for the future success and growth [of] the business in the coming years\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n
