Contractor says 2014 performance will be 鈥榗omfortably ahead鈥� of market expectations

Developer and contractor Henry Boot is expecting to beat its 2014 profit forecast, it has announced in a trading update.

The company said that profit for the year ended 31 December 2014 will be 鈥渃omfortably ahead of current consensus market expectations鈥�, citing the performance in its plant, construction and jointly owned housebuilder business.

The 2014 full-year results will be announced on 26 March 2015.

Last August, Boot announced in its half-year results that profit had leaped 81%, largely due to the performance of its property division.
