Growth accelerated throughout the year, the company said, resulting in record quarterly revenues of £243m in the three months to 30 June, up 27% year-on-year and 18% higher than the third quarter.
"Demand remained strong from customers in the semiconductor and electronics manufacturing equipment sector, and from the aerospace and defence sector," the firm said.
As a result, revenues for the year totalled £815m, up 14% over the year before, with all three business segments delivering growth.
As for the bottom line, adjusted pre-tax profit is expected to be around £167m, up from £127m the year before and ahead of the top end of Renishaw's own guidance range of £145m-165m reported in May. Results will be released on 23 September.
