Just caught Rolls-Royce's latest earnings and the numbers are pretty impressive. Pretax profit rose significantly to 6.9 billion pounds this year, nearly triple what they had before. Revenue also climbed to 21.2 billion pounds, which is solid growth across the board. The underlying operating profit hit 3.3 billion pounds, showing the core business is performing well. What caught my attention though is their forward guidance. They're expecting 4.0 to 4.2 billion pounds in underlying operating profit for next year, and they reckon they'll hit their mid-term target of 4.9-5.2 billion by 2028, which is ahead of schedule. CEO mentioned they're now on track to deliver those numbers two years earlier than originally planned. On top of that, they announced a pretty substantial share buyback program running through 2026-2028, worth 7 to 9 billion pounds total. About 2.5 billion of that is slated for next year. The stock rose 5.34% on the news, and with 8.7 billion in liquidity backing them up, looks like investors are feeling confident about the direction they're heading.
