A good year, but not as good as anticipated

A slower end to FY17 for UK operations has lowered market guidance to c £9m EBIT for the year, c 12% below our previous estimate (but still c 23% above FY16) and we have adjusted our model accordingly. By the FY17 results announcement (on 6 June), we will have more visibility on run rates and order intake, and will naturally review estimates for FY18 and beyond at that time. Forward P/Es are now on single-digit multiples.
