Brookfield Business Partners ( ($TSE:BBU.UN) ) has shared an update.
On January 30, 2026, Brookfield Business Partners reported its 2025 year-end results, posting net income attributable to unitholders of $43 million, a turnaround from a $109 million loss in 2024, while Adjusted EBITDA eased to $2.41 billion from $2.57 billion as prior-year tax recoveries and contributions from divested operations rolled off. Segment performance was mixed: Industrials delivered 10% underlying growth aided by new acquisitions and strong demand in advanced energy storage and engineered components; Business Services was broadly stable after partial asset sales and IFRS 17-related timing impacts at its mortgage insurer; and Infrastructure Services declined following the sale of its shuttle tanker operation and a partial stake in its work access services business. The company continued to actively recycle capital, generating more than $2 billion from asset sales, investing $700 million in four growth acquisitions and repurchasing $235 million of units and shares in 2025, and has since agreed to acquire a 35% stake in corrugated-packaging machinery provider Fosber for about $170 million of equity, subject to approvals and expected to close in the first half of 2026. Brookfield is also nearing completion of a corporate reorganization aimed at simplifying its structure and boosting global demand for its securities, having secured unitholder, shareholder and court approvals in mid-January 2026, while maintaining an active buyback program that saw a further $72 million deployed to repurchase 2.1 million units and shares around quarter-end.
