Cranswick plc Analyst Notes
On May 19, 2014, Cranswick plc (Cranswick) released its FY 2014 financial results (period ended March 31, 2014). The Company reported FY 2014 revenue of £994.9 million, up 13.7% YoY, helped by significant increase in sales of fresh pork, bacon and cooked meats.

On average, analysts polled by Reuters expected the Company to report full-year pretax adjusted profit of £50.95 million on revenues of £986.7 million. However, the Company's FY 2014 adjusted operating margin declined to 5.4% from 5.7% in FY 2013, due to higher input costs as well as higher than anticipated start-up costs at the Group's new gourmet pastry facility in Malton, North Yorkshire.
