Trading Update - 15 May 2020

Computacenter plc, a leading independent technology partner trusted by large corporate and public sector organisations, today publishes a trading update, based on unaudited financial information, for the four months to 30 April 2020.

We stated in our trading statement on 23rd April 2020 that current trading was more robust than we had anticipated at the start of the crisis. Since that date business has accelerated further and we have managed to secure some substantial Technology Sourcing contracts due to our ability to scale our operations to meet the demand. These incremental volumes mean that we now believe that the first half of 2020 will be considerably ahead of the same period of last year. 

While things are a little clearer, continuing uncertainty in the market is such that the Board believes that it is still unable to provide meaningful guidance at this time concerning the second half of the year due to the COVID-19 crisis.

Our next scheduled trading update is the announcement of our Interim Results on Wednesday 9 September 2020. We will, however, update our guidance as soon as we have more visibility on expected trading conditions for the second half of the year.
