FTSE 250 movers: Mobico slump dominates index; Indivior gains again
(Sharecast News) - FTSE 250 (MCX) 19,593.02 0.45% The value of UK transport company Mobico was almost halved on Friday after a warning that annual earnings would be at the lower end of guidance, completely overshadowing the sale of its North America school bus business to I Squared Capital for up to $608m (£457m).
Guidance for 2024 adjusted operating earnings is pencilled in at £185m - £205m. Mobico said it expected to deliver a "significant" statutory loss due to goodwill write-offs, derecognition of deferred tax assets and further onerous contract provisions relating to its German business.
Shares in the firm, formerly known as National Express, hit the skids early and were down 40% in London trade. The stock, which was at 467p just before the Covid pandemic struck, was languishing at 41p on Friday.
Aston Martin shares gained on hopes that the Sino-US trade war would e-escalate.
Indivior jumped again, a day after reporting results that beat expectations. The company reported first-quarter total net revenue of $266m, down 6% but beating the consensus estimate of $243m. Operating income fell 12% to $66m, with net income down 23% at $47m.
Shares in Senior also sparked for a second session, after the high-tech engineering firm reiterated its full-year outlook and downplayed the impact of tariffs.
Updating on the three months to March end, the FTSE 250 company said it had seen "robust" trading during the first quarter.
Automotive distributor Inchcape rallied after falling on Thursday after reporting revenues had fallen amid what it called an "uncertain market environment" during Q1.
