Trading Update
Park, the UK's leading multi-retailer, multi-channel gift
voucher and prepaid gift card provider, announces an update on
trading for its financial year ended 31 March 2017, ahead of the
announcement of its Preliminary Results on 13 June 2017.
The Board expects to report results for the year to 31 March
2017 in line with market expectations.
The Company's Interim Statement, released on 29 November 2016,
reported that the financial performance in the first six months of
the year delivered further good levels of growth in both our
Consumer and Corporate businesses. The first half ended well, with
order books ahead of the same period last year, as the Company
entered the very busy trading period running up to Christmas.
Trading in the second half, including the important Christmas
period, maintained the momentum of the first half and delivered
further good progress, as our commitment to product and service
enhancement continues to drive success on both sides of the
business. Completed orders for the Consumer business were over 4
per cent ahead of last year. The Corporate business saw increased
traction in part due to our 'Evolve' digital corporate rewards and
incentivisation platform which now has attracted 162 corporate
customers following its launch in June last year. This platform
allows customer organisations to cost effectively create and
control their own web or smart device based reward programmes.
Park's overall financial position remains extremely sound with
cash balances ahead of last year.
Early indications for the coming year from our Consumer and
Corporate businesses are positive, with order books again ahead of
their position at the same time last year, giving us confidence in
a strong year ahead.
