Update: Much more to come

PPHE has surprised yet again, with 2014 EBITDA well ahead even of our significant pre-close upgrade. While that largely reflected capex postponement and earlier caution ahead of its key Q4, the final outturn confirms growth across the board with London hotels, its major profit source, once more leading the way. Despite likely short-term disruption from refurbishments, such positive momentum and FX gain suggest continued progress this year, while 2016 should see the initial benefits of potentially transformative medium-term investment.
