Linde overcame a challenging trading environment and pointed to the ‘resiliency of its model’ after posting a full-year operating profit of $9.7bn in 2024, up 7% on 2023.

It rounded off the year strongly with Q4 operating profit of $2.5bn, up 9% annually, boosted by high prices and productivity initiatives across all segments. Operating cashflow for the year totalled $9.4bn although full year sales were flat however, at $33bn.
