Westminster Group PLC - London-based provider of security services for sensitive places such as ports, airports and commercial buildings - Says it expects revenue to be around a third lower than market expectations for 2022 and loss before tax to be around half that of 2021.
In 2021, Westminster's pretax loss was £1.9 million and revenue amounted to £7.1 million. This is mostly due to "slippage" from a "multi-million pound" technology project for the Middle East & North Africa region.
"Whilst we still expect to be awarded the contract this year, we are now running short on time to deliver and recognise revenue in 2022, and accordingly, depending on when the order arrives, some of this revenue is now likely to slip into 2023," Westminster says.
In August, Westminster said revenue rose 13% to £3.9 million for the six months ended on June 30 from £3.5 million a year earlier. Pretax loss amounted to £787,000 during the period, narrowed from £929,000 a year earlier.
