Notice of FY-2022 Results

Lords, a leading distributor of building materials in the UK, announces that it will be publishing its full year results for the 12 months ended 31 December 2022 on 3 May 2023.

The Company had previously anticipated releasing results on Wednesday 5 April, however the Company has been informed that the Company's auditor, RSM UK Audit LLP, will no longer be able to meet the previously stated timeline.

The Board of Lords re-affirms, as disclosed in the Company's trading update of 25 January 2023, that the Group expects to report record revenues, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit Before Tax for FY22 of not less than GBP450 million, GBP28.3 million and GBP16.0 million respectively and that the revised date for publication of FY22 results is as a result of procedural matters only.
