Q1 2024 TRADING UPDATE

Norman Broadbent (AIM: NBB), a leading Executive Search and Interim Management firm, announces a trading update for the quarter ended 31 March 2024 ("Q1 2024").

Highlights

Kevin Davidson, CEO of Norman Broadbent plc, said:

"We are comfortable with how the year has begun, with variance in quarterly NFI distribution typical over the course of a year and, of course, in the context of a still challenging macroeconomic environment.   

We have made a strong start to the second quarter and, while the quarterly growth rate may continue to fluctuate, our overall trajectory remains positive. Our stated ambition is to deliver EBITDA in excess of £1.25 million in FY2025 and we remain confident in our ability to achieve that.

We have invested further in, and will continue to identify and carefully assess, potential new hires who can deliver NFI rapidly and, crucially, be additive to the high performance and collaborative culture we have created. In addition to adding quality people, we continue to focus on productivity, efficiency improvements and enhanced processes within the Company wherever possible."
