The results for the group show a profit before taxation of £9.5 million (2017: £9.9 million) for the year and turnover of £68.8 million (2017: £63.6 million). The group has net debt of £51.3 million (2017: £51.8 million) and net assets, including long term balances to and from group entities, of £29.8 million (2017: £19.3 million). Turnover has increased in 2018 due to a successful year of racing, with group winners both home and abroad. Stallion nomination income increased again in 2018 as demand for the elite stallions was once again robust and as a result gross profit has grown by 13% year on year. The elite stallions continue to be popular with breeders and average stud fees have increased further in 2019.
