Therefore, in most cases, Balfour Beatty does well in periods when the UK’s សេដ្ឋកិច្ច is growing. This year, however, a series of large product deals have boosted the company’s performance. 

In a report on Thursday, Balfour Beatty said that its order book will be about 5% above its 2021 financial year. Its order book in 2021 was valued at over 16.1 billion pounds. Its revenue will be about 5% above its 2021’s 8.3 billion pound. Further, the company’s profit is expected to be above its previous guidance, with the average monthly net cash flow being 800 million pounds.

Balfour Beatty’s diversification makes it weather multiple storms better than other firms. For example, it has a growing market share in the United States. It recently won a contract to build a $700 million federal building in Maryland and a $400 million convention centre in Florida. Its American contracts are paid in US dollars, which is a positive for the firm since it reports its books in ផោនអង់គ្លេស.

Further, Balfour Beatty is a good rewarder of shareholders. It has returned over 385 million pounds to shareholders since 2021. It also intends to boost its returns in January.
