Gear4music – trading ‘exceeded previous expectations’, but sustainable?
By Steve Moore | Thursday 25 February 2021
Disclosure: I have no positions in any stocks mentioned, and no plans to initiate any positions within the next 72 hours. I wrote this article myself, and it expresses my own opinions. I am not receiving compensation for it (other than from ShareProphets). I have no business relationship with any company whose stock is mentioned in this article.
Online musical instruments and music equipment retailer Gear4music (G4M) has made a trading update including “both our UK and European operations have performed well post Brexit, helping to drive revenue growth and support margins that have exceeded our previous expectations”. But what of the shares, currently more than 10% higher in response, at around 800p?…
