A “Trading update” announcement from NCC Group (NCC) opens with that “the group continues to trade in line with the board's expectations for full year Adjusted EBITDA, as announced on 21 February 2017”. Hmmm, adjusted EBITDA you say and what was that announced on 21st February?...
Having concluded on previously writing on NCC Group (NCC) in November with the shares just below 200p, to avoid on the back of a confusing update and with also the company continuing to acquire despite the recent noted “number of setbacks”, I note the shares now sliding towards 110p following recent announcements…
Roger Lawson the chairman of ShareSoc is of course a great expert on tech stocks.

There is now an announcement of “Acquisition of US cyber security consultancy”…
Cyber security and risk mitigation group NCC (NCC) has updated on four month to 30th September organic revenue growth of 21% in an announcement that also includes that “rate of growth in profitability will now be more biased towards the second half of the year than initially expected, but remains in line with the board's expectations”.
