Trading Update

The Board of Christie Group Plc (CTG.L) advises that a culmination of recent unprecedented conflation of market timings, caused by the coincidental sale of exceptionally large portfolios of Dental, Pharmacy and Care Home assets on unit by unit bases, is expected to result in a more pronounced second-half weighting to its full year performance than previously anticipated.

The industry's business mortgage lending teams and the specialist non-conflicted Chartered Surveyors that value such businesses for business purchase funding purposes are fully utilised, which has resulted in delayed lead times. Consequently, a backlog of transactions has occurred.In view of this deal congestion and other factors, the Group believes that some output from its own transactional pipeline that had been expected to be recognisable as revenue in H1 will now be postponed into H2. As previously indicated, the overall full year performance was already expected to be second-half weighted.

The Board's expectations of trading for the full year to 31st December 2023 remain unchanged. Enquiries:
