Pro-forma sales & earnings
Record Order book transitions from daily trade to larger and more complex orders
-
Larger more complex orders typically have longer lead times and less certainty around delivery timing. This has resulted in a proportion of orders that would previously have already become invoiced Revenue now sitting in our Order Backlog.
-
Amidst the wider macroeconomic challenges in the commercial construction sector, IPD group delivered a record order book and pro-forma[(1)] revenue growth of 2.3%.
-
IPD’s gross revenues for the core IPD business are up 5.2% on pro-forma[(1)] pcp as IPD's diverse product range has enabled IPD to pivot towards emerging markets.
-
CMI Operations is largely attached to the Commercial Construction sector and gross revenues declined by 3.3% on proforma[(1)] pcp.
