(Sharecast News) - Christie Group said on Tuesday that its full-year expectations remained unchanged after a good start to 2026, supported by robust demand, resilient lender and investor appetite, and a strong deal pipeline.
The AIM-traded professional services and stock systems group said its UK agency pipelines began the year up more than 14% by value and 19% by the volume of deals in solicitors' hands, although conversion into invoicing is expected to be more fully realised in the second half because of slightly longer deal timelines.
Valuation and business appraisal revenue was more than 8% higher year-on-year in the five months to 31 May, while Christie Finance fee income rose 23%.
Christie said it expected to sell more than 1,000 businesses again in 2026, with full-year revenue and profit weighted towards the second half.
The company said activity levels, together with continued investor and lender appetite in its sectors, underpinned the board's confidence in meeting full-year expectations.
At 1138 BST, shares in Christie Group were up 0.63% at 143.4p.
