Early flight for me so I will catch up news when I can...
Any heads up most welcome.
See many of you at Mello - Should arrive in Derby around 7pm all being well!
Have a good journey M! Keystone Law (LON:KEYS) may be worth a look, and Empiric Student Property (LON:ESP) may have started a turnaround.
My morning smallcap tweet: Mission statements don't make money.
Countrywide (LON:CWD), Franchise Brands (LON:FRAN), Water Intelligence (LON:WATR), Crawshaw (LON:CRAW)
Countrywide (CWD) Q1 rev down 10%. "The Group has moved swiftly to restore expertise in Sales and Lettings following the appointment of Paul Creffield as Group Operations Director...In Sales, we have seen an improvement in both the register of properties available for sale and in our market share of listings compared with Q4 2017. In Lettings, our share of listings is also ahead of Q4 2017." I'm short.
Franchise Brands (FRAN) Q1 trading marginally ahead of management's expectations. No of jobs completed by Metro Rod and Metro Plumb up 16%, although the average order size was slightly lower.
Water Intelligence (WATR) Q1 rev up 40%, pretax up 50%. "Comfortably in-line with our expectations."
Crawshaw Group (CRAW) FY rev up 1%. Pretax pre exceptional & write offs -£1.9m (-£1.4m). Recent 12 weeks: high street has remained challenging but factory shop format continues to perform well. "Our Mission: To use our expertise to source, prepare, produce and retail quality fresh meat products at a price and a service level that continues to delight our customers." You are just a butchers. What about delighting shareholders?
