Stobart Group (LON:STOB) chief: ‘Brexit won’t have much of an effect’: ProactiveInvestors Stocktube

Stobart Group Ltd (LON:STOB) tells Proactive Investors that it is “pretty confident” Brexit will not have much of an effect on its largely UK-based businesses.

“With the deflation of the pound I’m sure we’ll find more visitors coming to the UK and using the South-End Airport,” says chief executive Andrew Tinkler.

“Our free growth business is a solid platform to grow off allowing us to return over £300mln to shareholders.”
