Amino lifts guidance after pound plunges

The video-streaming group expects to beat expectations due to strong trading and a currency benefit
October 11, 2016

The plunge in the pound was a welcome surprise for US-focused Amino Technologies (AMO). Coupled with record orders of the group's multimedia-streaming devices in August, management now expects revenues and adjusted profits to surpass market expectations for the year to 30 November.

The guidance uplift comes after Amino signed the first contract for its Fusion home-management system, with US telco Alliance Communications, and inked a licensing deal for its Enable TV software with Hong Kong-based PCCW Media. Broker finnCap hiked its forecasts and now expects adjusted pre-tax profits of £9.5m for the full year, giving EPS of 12.2p, up from £5.1m and 7.3p in FY2015.
