WATERMAN TRADING UPDATE
Waterman Group plc ("Waterman" or "the Group"), the engineering
and environmental consultancy, today releases a Trading Update
ahead of the announcement of the Group's Interim Results for
the
half-year ended 31(st) December 2016.
Waterman has experienced a positive interim trading period and
the Board expects to report Interim Results consistent with market
forecasts for the year as a whole, with revenue, profit and
operating margin percentage generally in line with the prior year
comparable period.
A continuing emphasis on working capital management has resulted
in the Group expecting to report net funds at 31(st) December 2016
of GBP6.7m (GBP5.5m at 30(th) June 2016 and GBP6.6m at 31(st)
December 2015).
As previously noted in the Chairman's Statement in the 2016
Annual Report, the Board's aspiration is to continue to increase
dividends payable to shareholders consistent with the cash
generative nature of our business and we expect to declare an
increased interim dividend consistent with this aspiration.
The Group will report its Interim Results on 28(th) February
2017.
