Good results and strong momentum into FY25
Reliable results are a BEG characteristic. FY24 included 12% revenue growth (6% organic), just ahead of our forecasts which puts it well on track to achieve its £200m medium term revenue target; we project that by FY27. The outlook is also confident and our FY25e forecast only includes organic growth and full contributions from recent acquisitions. As a result of cash generation in the period year-end net debt was £1.4m (FY23: £3m net cash): that is certainly impressive post £11.1m of acquisit...
