Trading update
19 September 2017
Speedy, the UK's leading tools, equipment and plant hire services company, operating across the construction, infrastructure and industrial markets, today issues a trading update ahead of publishing half year results for the period to 30 September 2017, scheduled for 14 November 2017.
Group revenues for the period to 31 August, excluding disposals, are approximately 7.5% ahead of the prior year primarily due to growth in services revenues. Utilisation rates for the year to date have averaged 54.5%, an increase of c.6% over the corresponding period in the prior year. Net debt at the half year end is expected to be below GBP70m (30 September 2016: GBP85.4m).
Overheads in the period are expected to be broadly consistent with the prior period. As part of the Group's ongoing efficiency programme, further action has been taken this month to manage the Group's cost base and, consequently, the number of operating divisions and distribution centres has been reduced. These actions will result in overhead savings of at least GBP3m per annum. Net exceptional costs of c.GBP4.5m are expected to be recognised in the first half year.
Adjusted profit before tax for the full year is expected to be well ahead of the prior year and slightly ahead of the Board's previous expectations.
