Games Workshop, the best performing stock this year on the London market, said its revenues and earnings climbed significantly over the past six months.
The group, known for its table games, said in a trading update that preliminary estimates point to sales of £109m in the half-year to November 26, up 53.7 per cent over the same period in the previous year. Operating profits climbed at a more rapid rate to £38m from £13.8m.
The group’s shares have soared 174.4 per cent since the end of last year, making Games Workshop by far the best-performing stock on the FTSE All-Share index, according to FactSet data.
Games Workshop is based in the UK, but 70 per cent of direct sales are generated overseas from countries such as the US, Australia, China and Japan, helping to buffer its exposure to British economic tumult.
