Costain Group PLC - Maidenhead, England-based infrastructure construction firm - Ahead of its annual general meeting, says it is trading in line with board expectations. Says it remains confident in the group’s strategy and long-term prospects, while ‘mindful of the macroeconomic backdrop’.
In 2022, Costain reported a pretax profit of £32.8 million, swinging from a loss of £13.3 million the previous year. Revenue totalled £1.42 billion, up 25% from £1.14 billion the year prior. Costain said this was driven by increased volumes in complex programme delivery and the impact of inflation, as well as increased revenue in its consultancy-led sectors, predominantly in Energy and Defence.
