Devro continues to thrive

TIP UPDATE: Trading remains buoyant at the sausage skin maker
October 26, 2010

Sausage skin maker Devro has reported continued growth in its markets with sales into developing markets proving particularly strong. As a result full-year earnings are expected to meet expectations even though developed markets have been “quieter” than they had been in the first half of the year.

IC TIP: Buy at 239p

The recent strength of Devro’s performance has prompted the company to plough more resources into its manufacturing facilities with capital expenditure expected to hit £30m this year. And the effect is already being seen with better yields and line speeds being experienced in recent months.
