Update: Stalling in Germany

SpaceandPeople (SAL) has published its interim results ahead of schedule alongside a further trading update, indicating that full-year results will be below the level indicated in April. The shortfall is principally in Germany, where operating leverage has amplified the negative effect of lower revenues. Overheads have been addressed and the lower costs should help drive margin recovery in FY15. With little capital requirement, SAL should still end 2014 with around £1m of net cash. Management is indicating a reduced dividend of 2p in respect of FY14. Share price recovery depends on delivery against these reduced expectations.
