Notice of revised date for 31 March 2020 results

Speedy, the UK's leading provider of tools and equipment hire, and services to the construction, infrastructure and industrial markets announces that, in light of recent COVID-19 guidance from the FCA (Financial Conduct Authority), the FRC (Financial Reporting Council) and the PRA (Prudential Regulation Authority) on corporate reporting timetables, it will announce its results for the year ended 31 March 2020 on 9 June 2020. This will provide sufficient time for the finalisation of the accounts and for the Company's auditor, KPMG, to complete the process of auditing the Group, given the practical challenges of remote working.

 

The date of the Company's AGM will be announced at the time of the results.

 

The Board confirms that there has been no change to trading since the update issued by the Company on  9 April 2020. Speedy has a robust cash position with substantial unutilised banking facilities; the Board remains confident that the Group can operate well within its existing debt facilities and covenant tests during a prolonged period of reduced trading activity.
