12:06GMT 11Mar2009-Renishaw down; warns on H2 losses
----------------------------------------------------
Shares in Renishaw fall 21.7 percent after the British precision
engineer warns of second half operating losses as monthly revenue continue to
deteriorate, prompting WH Ireland to place its earnings forecasts under review
and cuts its rating to 'underperform' from 'marketperform'.
'The impact of recession has been much greater than we previously imagined.
We will be cutting back our earnings estimates severely as a result,' the broker
says in a note.
WH Ireland expects to slash pretax profit forecasts to around 5.0 million
pounds from 30.5 million pounds for full-year 2009 and to break-even from 22.8
million pounds for full-year 2010.
