Currently, April’s revenue is above the prior year and May and June are expected to be big months for the business in both Australia and the U.K.

The company will provide a further update on its finances in May.

“We remain committed to our guidance for the full year as indicated at our AGM being an Underlying EBITDA of over $57 million,” the company said.
