Andy Hogarth, chairman and chief executive, says: “Trading in the first few weeks of the second half of 2010 has continued to be extremely strong with two latest acquisitions starting to have an impact. In addition we have opened a further six OnSites during July and August, bringing the current total of OnSite locations to 135. The board now expects earnings for the full financial year to be significantly ahead of current expectations.”
