Update: Positioning and growing

Stobart announced its pre-close statement ahead of interims due on 23 October. The statement highlighted that further volume growth continues to be witnessed in the key Biomass and Air divisions, while progress in deploying investment into green energy projects is anticipated over the coming six months. With further property disposals achieved and planning permission obtained for Carlisle Airport, Stobart aims to further develop the infrastructure division, while the previously partially disposed Transportation Division (49% holding) is performing to plan. Overall, we feel the statement is positive and we maintain our full year forecasts.
