Rotork stock (ISIN GB00BVFNZH21) traded at EUR 5.78 at Lang & Schwarz on September 30, 2026 at 12:50 p.m. CEST, plus 0.52 percent versus the prior close of EUR 5.75. The proposed ABB acquisition gives the industrial automation group a defined corporate event as shareholders prepare for completion in the first half of 2027.
ABB offer sets the key reference
As MarketScreener reported on September 3, 2026, Rotork shareholders approved ABB's recommended acquisition. The agreement covers a GBP 4.14 billion cash takeover at GBp 506.00 per share, with completion expected in the first half of 2027.
The takeover price is a clear benchmark for the equity story, while the Lang & Schwarz quote remains below the offer level in a separate euro quotation. The difference between the two currencies prevents a direct percentage comparison, but the corporate timetable gives investors a concrete event date.
H1 revenue reached GBP 367.2 million
Rotork's latest reported interim period was the six months ended June 30, 2026. The MarketScreener results summary lists GBP 367.2 million of H1 revenue and GBp 6.70 of H1 earnings per share on August 4, 2026.
Rotork's investor materials describe the company as a provider of intelligent flow control systems serving oil and gas, water and power, and chemical, process and industrial markets. Its stated long-term ambition is mid to high single-digit revenue growth and adjusted operating margins in the mid-20s, according to Rotork.
Next sales update arrives November 17
The next scheduled checkpoint is Rotork's sales and revenue release on November 17, 2026, as listed in the company calendar carried by MarketScreener. That update should provide the next operating checkpoint before the proposed ABB transaction moves toward completion.
On the London Stock Exchange, Rotork was last quoted at GBp 488.00 on September 30, 2026 at 11:30 a.m. BST. The primary listing's 52-week range was GBp 286.40 to GBp 489.20, placing the share near its upper annual level in the separate pence quotation.
