LONDON (Alliance News) - Games Workshop Group PLC on Thursday said sales and profit for the four months to October 2 have been ahead of its original expectations.
However, the fantasy miniatures manufacturer and retailer said it was aware it is "early" in its current financial year to end May 2017 and noted there are "a number of key challenging trading periods ahead".
Games Workshop said its sales were boosted in the four months by the weakness of sterling since the UK's Brexit vote, although it noted that it also has seen sales growth in constant currency terms.
Shares in Games Workshop were up 4.7% at 538.25 pence Thursday.
