Last checked at (Sharecast News) - Construction materials distributor Brickability Group said on Wednesday that interim group revenues were expected to have risen 200% year-on-year.

The AIM-listed firm also currently anticipates reporting adjusted underlying earnings for the six months ended 30 September of at least £17.0m, up from £8.0m in the prior period.
Brickability added that its order book remained "extremely strong" and stated it was "well placed" to supply the UK's housebuilders as demand was expected to continue to strengthen.

"We remain cautiously optimistic for the future."
