Dear, oh dear – every time we get an announcement from AIM-listed project management and technical consultancy purveyor WYG (WYG) the news seems to go from bad to worse, and hats off to Steve Moore for his unremitting bearishness on this. The latest news is that the banks have agreed to waive the 31 March covenant test (which the company had previously warned it would fail) but the 0.6p dividend per share - which was declared on 4 December 2018, payable on 4 April - has been cancelled.

However, for the reasons explained below, the board has revised its expectation of near term operating performance”… Not upwards I’m guessing!…
A “Trading Update” announcement from WYG plc (WYG). Should be ok as the company’s December half-year report emphasised “a sound platform from which to deliver a full year performance in line with current market expectations”, with “good forward visibility” (as well as noting its “winning the Association for Consultancy and Engineering's Best UK Business Performance Award for a large firm and the AIM Awards Best Investor Communication Award”).
