Profits downgraded but still growing FY16E, FY17E

This includes focus on supporting the various brands, the costs of which have always been included in our forward estimates. However, Monday’s update is negative in that the 2.9% (year to March 2015 continuing businesses) EBITA margins are now estimated to rise to only 3.2% in FY16, before (we estimate) rising in FY17E. We reduce FY16E PBT from £5.2m to £2.7m, suspending FY17E. March 2016 we estimate net £2m debt.
