AGM Statement

 

 

The Chairman of James Latham is pleased to provide the following trading
update at the Company's AGM being held today.

 

Revenue for the first four months of the current financial year, namely 1
April to 31 July 2025 is £133m compared with £127m for the same period last
year. Volumes are up 5.9% on the same period last year. Margins remain
consistent with the second half of the previous year. Overheads and resulting
profit are in line with market expectations.

 

The demand for solid timber products has continued to improve which has been
the main driver for the increased volumes during this period. Our customers
are more confident than at the same period last year with slightly improved
order books.

 

The Company's interim results for the six months ending 30 September 2025 will
be announced on 27 November 2025.
