Explains that it is in talks with lenders as it seeks a temporary covenant relaxations with discussions ‘expected to conclude by mid-July’. Says the results delay will ‘allow sufficient time for the orderly completion of the covenant reset process and for the group’s auditors to complete their review processes’. This follows an April trading update in which Crest Nicholson lowered full-year guidance and warned of higher-than-forecast debt amid ‘a marked softening in sentiment’. The company eyes earnings before interest and tax for financial 2026 from £5 million to £15 million and a year-end net debt position of £100 million to £120 million.
