The majority of the Group’s introducer garages have returned to normal working practices and any existing backlog of repair work is being cleared. Average vehicle hire numbers have returned to pre-Covid levels and fleet utilisation remains in line with historic norms. Overall vehicle numbers are being carefully managed in line with the Group’s policy of controlling fleet growth and increasing cash collections.
The Board is delighted to announce that, as a result of this overall strategy, the Group was net cash generative throughout H1-2020.
