Following the release of its first-half results, Rolls-Royce raised its full-year operating profit forecast. The company stated that improvements in its civil aviation, defense, and power systems businesses drove simultaneous growth in both earnings and cash flow.

In the first half of the year, the company's underlying operating profit was £2.5 billion, a 46% increase compared to the same period last year. Free cash flow rose to £2 billion, indicating continued improvement in operating performance.

The company raised its full-year underlying operating profit forecast from £4 billion to £4.2 billion to £4.7 billion to £4.9 billion. The new guidance is also higher than the market's previous estimate of approximately £4.2 billion.

The operating profit margin for the civil aviation business rose from 24.9% to 25.3%. The company stated that this change was driven by improved profitability in after-sales services, increased operational efficiency, and more favorable airline contracts.

Canadian wholesale sales rose slightly by 0.3% in July: Building materials saw strength, but actual sales decreased by 0.6%
On September 15, Statistics Canada announced that in July 2026, wholesale sales increased by 0.3% month-on-month at current prices, reaching C$91.4 billion. This figure does not include oil, petroleum products, and other hydrocarbons, nor does it include oilseeds and grains. On the surface, there was little change in sales amounts, with growth even observed in the building materials and food sectors; however, when calculated at constant prices, total sales volume decreased by 0.6%. The increase in nominal amounts while the actual quantity decreased indicates that price factors supported the data for that month, and it also serves as a reminder to the market that one positive growth figure alone should not be used to conclude that demand has strengthened.
