Renew (AIM: RNWH), the Engineering Services Group supporting UK infrastructure, announces an update on trading in advance of the interim results for the half year ended 31 March 2016.

 

Trading for the first half of the year is ahead of the comparative position last year and in line with the Board's expectations. The Board anticipates reporting an increased forward order book and a reduction in net debt when it announces Renew's interim results for the six months ended 31 March 2016 on Tuesday 24 May 2016.

He has been with the Group for over 15 years and prior to serving in his current position was Managing Director of Shepley Engineers Limited, the Group's principal nuclear business, which has shown substantial growth under Paul's stewardship.

 

Additionally, the Board is pleased to announce that Andries Liebenberg (48), Managing Director of Renew's largest business, Amco Rail, has been appointed to the Board with immediate effect. Andries has been with Amco for over eight years and has held his current position since January 2013, during which period Amco Rail has grown to become a leading supplier of infrastructure services to Network Rail.
