Ashtead Technology Holdings plc
("the Company")
Trading Update
Ashtead Technology Holdings plc (AIM: AT.) provides the following trading update ahead of its Annual General Meeting later today.
The Group has made an excellent start to the year as the industry benefits from an increased focus on energy transition and energy security which continues to drive utilisation and pricing. Revenues for the seasonally weaker H1 2022 are expected to be no less than £31m, representing growth of at least 25% on H1 2021, which was still impacted by the Covid pandemic. The EBITA margin for the period is expected to be higher than prior year and in line with the Board's expectations.
The Group will provide further details on its performance in its 2022 half-year results statement, which it expects to issue in September.
Allan Pirie, Chief Executive, commented:
"We are pleased with the financial performance of the Group in the first half of the year. The business is well placed to continue benefitting from current market conditions during the second half of 2022 as we also seek to continue our focus on operational excellence, and further capitalise on the fungibility of our industry-leading rental fleet to support both oil and gas and renewables markets."
