Christie Group PLC, down 23% at 113.10p, 12-month range 100.00p-167.00p. The inventory and systems services provider says it now expects full-year performance to be materially below previous expectations. Christie notes continued delays in achieving contractual exchange on ongoing transactions in its agency and advisory business, Christie & Co, and alterations to the expected timing and outcome of certain significant portfolio assignments. The deal delays, which have now been a prevailing factor throughout the first half, are anticipated to last ‘at least until the end of the summer period’ before more normalised exchange and invoicing activity resumes. However, it says it expects a ‘positive’ second-half trading performance, ahead of first-half performance and more consistent with second-half trading in 2022.
