Share price chart
Let's take a look at the share price chart, which really says it all.
On the right hand side here you can quite clearly see pushing this chart up now to a gain of 114.6% on from the lows we had back in August last year.
This move up today has been all about the release today, saying that whilst revenue continues to be in line, the company remains cautiously optimistic and mindful of continuing macroeconomic uncertainty and a tough consumer environment that is pervailing at the moment.
