Carclo plc ("the Group")
Trading update - full year expectations unchanged
Trading in the first half was below the Board's expectations due to underperformance at Technical Plastics.
In Technical Plastics, three new medical programmes were delayed by customers in the period but all entered production successfully towards the end of the first half of the year and this, together with planned new tooling programmes, support the expected stronger second half performance. The implementation of our operational improvement programme has delivered a number of price increases, efficiency opportunities and cost savings across the division, the benefit of which will positively impact margins in the second half of the year and beyond.
In the LED Division, Wipac has continued to be successful in winning new programmes, including nomination for two mid-volume electric vehicles, leading to a healthy level of design and development contract profits. Production demand has been solid. All of the current year's planned new vehicle production programmes launched in the first half and this resulted in higher than anticipated manufacturing costs being incurred during launch. Associated margins are expected to improve in the second half as production accelerates and initial start-up inefficiencies are eliminated.
The smaller Aerospace Division performed slightly ahead of expectations as a result of higher margins and tight control over costs.
The Board's expectations for the year ending 31 March 2019 remain unchanged, with results weighted towards the second half of the year, as expected. This reflects the full effect of the new programmes, expected customer timings on projects and the anticipated improvement in margins at Wipac in addition to cost saving initiatives, ramp up in production volumes and expected higher design and tooling profits in Technical Plastics.
The Group will announce its interim results for the period ended 30 September 2018 on 13 November 2018.
