TRADING UPDATE ON CLOSE OF FINANCIAL YEAR ENDED 28 MAY 2017

 

 

Following the close of its 2016/17 financial year Games Workshop provides the following trading highlights:

 

Games Workshop is pleased to announce that the sales and profit growth, which was discussed in the March 2017 trading update, has continued in the period to the end of May 2017.

 

We expect the Group's sales for the year to 28 May 2017 to be approximately £158 million and the Group's profit before tax to be above market expectations at not less than £38 million. Sales and profits have benefitted from the continuing favourable impact of the weaker pound.

 

We will provide the detailed information on the audited results for the 2016/17 financial year at the time of our full year results announcement on 25 July 2017.
