Trading Update
The Board of John Lewis of Hungerford plc (AIM:JLH) provides an
update on trading for its financial year ended 31 August 2017.
Our performance in the second half year, traditionally our
stronger trading period, was in line with expectations announced in
May. Based on unaudited management information, we expect to report
sales for the full year of GBP8.2 million (2016: GBP8.2 million)
and a small operating profit. As previously announced, in the prior
year we took the decision to close our showrooms in Tunbridge Wells
and Harrogate. Both ceased trading by 31 December 2016 and, after
adjusting for the effect of these closures, the underlying sales
growth for the year is around 4%.
The Board has separately announced today the appointment of
James Barnard as a new non-executive director.
