Petards Group plc provided earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2015. For the period, the Group has continued to trade profitably in line with the board's expectations for the six months ended June 30, 2015. Margins for the first half of the year will be significantly higher than those for the corresponding period in 2014 on lower revenues, reflecting the changed product mix which last year included a substantial amount of lower margin hardware deliveries to the MOD in respect of the RAF's SMRE project.
