Croma Security Revenue Jumps 15% to £11.0 Million on Acquisition Strategy

Croma Security Solutions (LSE:CSSG) announced a 15% increase in revenue to £11.0 million for the 2026 fiscal year, a result the company attributed to its active acquisition strategy and network expansion. The UK security services provider also stated that it expects full-year EBITDA to surpass previous expectations by a small margin.
Acquisitions Fuel Top-Line Growth
The company's revenue growth was primarily powered by strategic acquisitions completed during the fiscal period. Croma highlighted the impact of two key acquisitions made in the second half of the year and the successful integration of six locksmith operations into its network.
This expansion followed a portfolio adjustment earlier in the year, which included the completed sale of Vigilant Security. Croma's M&A activity underscores its focus on consolidating its position in the locksmith and security services market.
AdStrong Demand and Forward Outlook
Croma reported robust demand from both its retail and commercial client bases. The company said this was supported by increasing regulatory requirements and a heightened focus on security measures across various industries.
Looking ahead, Croma plans to continue its expansion through targeted acquisitions of locksmith and security businesses, noting it has a healthy pipeline of potential deals. Despite ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty, the firm sees opportunities for strengthening its presence in the healthcare and leisure sectors.
