Monday, 28 July 2008

Ground engineering specialist Keller has announced strong interim results for the six months ended 30 June 2008.

Highlights include:

*Revenue* of £568.7m (2007: £443.9m) up 28%, driven by excellent organic growth outside the US
*Operating profit* of £56.1m (2007: £47.4m) up 18%
*Profit before tax* of £54.2m (2007: £45.4m) up 19%
 
 
Justin Atkinson, Keller Chief Executive said:

“The trend of increased geographic diversification has continued, particularly with our investment into the fastest-growing parts of the Group in the Middle East, Eastern Europe and Australia, and as a result we are now more broadly based than ever.

“We go into the second half of 2008 with a strong order book and the board anticipates that the group’s results for the year as a whole will be broadly in line with last year’s excellent performance.”
