(Sharecast News) - Shipping services provider Clarksons shot higher on Friday on the back of a slightly improved outlook for 2025 profit.

In a very brief trading update, the company said it now expects underlying pre-tax profit for the year ended 31 December 2025 to be "not less than 90m, reflecting stronger results in the second half of the year".

This is down from 115.3m the previous year but better than the guidance it gave in May 2025 for underlying pre-tax profit of 85m to 95m. At the time, it cited the impact of US tariffs and a weaker US dollar.

At 0815 GMT, the shares were up 4.3% at 4,155p.
