Sound performance and maintained interim dividend
WSP Group plc, a leading international business supplying specialist and integrated services to the built and natural environment, reports its half year results for the six months to 30 June 2011.
Chris Cole, Chief Executive, said:
“We entered 2011 anticipating that our markets and trading patterns would be similar to those experienced in 2010. With the exception of the further significant tightening seen in the UK public sector this broadly remains the case.
The Group’s strategy of diversification across regions and sectors is providing a platform of resilience and opportunity. Despite the current uncertainty in the UK market our traditional bias towards the private sector will serve us well as this sector progresses. We remain encouraged by the economic outlook in Sweden which supports our significant operations, and elsewhere around the world our market standing, experience and financial strength will support our performance and position us well for the future as markets improve.”
