Following the release of the Group's interim results for the six months ended 30 September 2022, Brickability has continued to deliver a strong performance across all of its business divisions. As a result, the Brickability Board is pleased to announce that it now expects to report an adjusted EBITDA¹ of a least £47 million for the full year to 31 March 2023, ahead of current market expectations².

The Group's continued positive performance, despite the wider challenges and uncertainty, underlines the importance of Brickability's diverse multi business strategy, which has, once again, enabled the business to successfully navigate these pressures.

Whilst mindful of the short term impacts on our sectors that a challenging macro-economic environment could bring, the Board remains confident that the Group is well placed to continue delivering on its strategic objectives and the underlying growth of the business.

The Group expects to give a full year trading update for its financial year ending 31 March 2023 in late April 2023.
