Dart Group on track to beat forecasts

AIM-listed travel and logistics firm Dart Group (LON:DTG) climbed by 3.40% to 1,003p (as of 15:50 GMT) after informing markets that profits before tax at constant currency for the year ended 31st March would be significantly ahead of expectations.

The company said that momentum had significantly weakened over recent weeks as COVID-19 affected demand, but cumulative summer bookings remain at record levels. Looking further ahead, the board is unable to estimate the impact of the disease on next year’s profits.
