FTSE 250 movers: SuperGroup up on sales increase

1st Oct 2012 16:04

SuperGroup continues to extend gains after its impressive results announced last month, in which it reported a 10 per cent increase in total sales in the first quarter. Including today's near 9 per cent rise, shares have gained 35 per cent in the past month. AIM-listed online betting firm Sportingbet has rejected an indicative joint offer from sector peers William Hill and GVC Holdings for 52.5p per share. Sportingbet announced two weeks ago that it was approached by the two companies which were drawing up a possible offer. ITE Group, the exhibitions group specialising in emerging and developing markets, fell despite saying fourth quarter trading has continued to reflect positive trading conditions as it issued a confident outlook for this year and beyond.
