Bought in at the start.

International sales, marketing, distribution and business support services group DCC posts operating profits of £69.4m for the six months to the end of September - 38.0% up on last year.

Revenues rose 11.1% to £5,419.9m and adjusted earnings per share increased by 38.6% to 58.34p.

Chief executive Tommy Breen said: "It is pleasing to report that operating profit and adjusted earnings per share were significantly ahead of the prior year, albeit in the seasonally less significant first half. This out-performance was driven mainly by a particularly strong first quarter.

"DCC Energy, the group's largest division, traded significantly ahead of the prior year, benefiting from colder than normal weather conditions in the first quarter, the successful integration of acquisitions completed in prior periods and increased operational efficiency.

"Operating profit in DCC SerCom, the group's second largest division, was strongly ahead of the prior year, driven by its market leading position in the UK market for mobile computing products, such as notebooks and tablets, and its growing position in the mobile handset market.

"DCC Healthcare traded significantly ahead of the prior year, benefiting from first time contributions from Kent Pharma and Leonhard Lang UK, together with strong organic growth in the Health & Beauty sector.

"DCC's two smaller divisions, DCC Environmental and DCC Food & Beverage, traded modestly ahead of the prior year.

"The board has decided to pay an interim dividend of 26.12 pence per share, which represents a 10.0% increase on the prior year."

DCC is 'Mid cap of the week' tip in Telegraph newspaper today

[rik shaw] 21/10/2013 18:49

Nice tick up today.

[miti 1000] 21/9/2013 09:33

Yes, it is frustrating as the big seller is still not finished.Will look to accumulate before the update .Its a good long term investment imo.

[rik shaw] 18/9/2013 20:49

Considering the IMS mid July stated 'DCC has traded well ahead of its expectations in the first quarter.' I am slightly surprised how the share price has slipped back recently. Generally jumps on good news but seems to be soon forgotten. Interims in November so may be some more interest over the coming few weeks.

A superb trading update...period !!

[djderry] 19/7/2013 00:22

I predict ..............................an upbeat trading statement.

[thecynical1] 07/6/2013 09:14

looks like someone is buying ahead of the assumed inclusion in the 250?

[miti 1000] 15/5/2013 06:51

A lot of excellent coverage in The Times this morning predicting analysts upgrades to come.
Ftse 250 entry to come , hopefully in June , should create huge buying interest esp. as over 77% is owned by institutions. A short squeeze to £32 -£33 would be no surprise imo.

[djderry] 14/5/2013 20:44

Now there a positive reaction! Let it snow,let it snow..............

[miti 1000] 14/5/2013 07:37

Superb results with entry into ftse 250 to come.

[miti 1000] 07/5/2013 18:34

Well this is now breaking highs.
Results in a week's time and they should be fantastic.

[djderry] 02/4/2013 11:55

Is the 5% rise caused by the cold snap?

[miti 1000] 12/3/2013 11:23

Been adding in the past week and again today, 1k at 24.12..target 28quid by end of June.

[scottishfield] 11/3/2013 09:54

very well. If you look at the website you'll get an idea.

[miti 1000] 11/3/2013 09:41

Can anyone confirm how this has performed since it cancelled its Irish listing ?
