Big Yellow profits hit by property downgrade - Telegraph

Big Yellow's business is driven by changing circumstances for individuals and businesses, therefore the low level of housing transactions compared to the historical average is proving a drag on the group.

Revenues grew 7pc to £61.9m in the year to March 31, but profits fell to £6.9m after the value of Big Yellow's property portfolio was downgraded by 2pc, the company said in a statement.

Shares in Big Yellow fell 6.40, or 2pc, to 338p following the results.
