("RTC" or the "Group")
Trading update and notice of results
The Board of RTC is pleased to provide a trading update for its financial year ended 31 December 2020. The Board anticipates that the results for the year will outline that, despite lower trading levels compared to the prior financial year, RTC will record a profit in a year heavily impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. The Group expects to announce its preliminary results on or around 22 February 2021.
Bill Douie, Chairman, said:
"The performance of the Group in an extraordinarily challenging year has been satisfactory and both the net debt and cash position is sound.
The trading environment during the second part of 2020 has continued to be extremely difficult but our Group as a whole has remained profitable.
I believe our results are a clear endorsement of the strategic path being followed by the Group and I am gratefully impressed by the diligence and determination of management at all levels in overcoming continued external challenges.
In spite of the difficult economic environment, I remain cautiously confident of our ability to deliver continued positive results in 2021 in all areas of our business."
