LONDON (ShareCast) - Three executives from Aggreko, the FTSE 100 temporary power and temperature control group, showed their faith in the firm this week, topping up their interests a couple of days after it disappointed the market with a downbeat outlook for 2013.
Ken Hanna, Chairman, purchased 6,750 shares at 1,736p each on Thursday for £117,180, taking his interest to 20,188 shares.
Chief Executive Officer Rupert Soames and Chief Financial Officer Angus Cockburn also snapped up 1,470 and 1,400 shares, respectively, on the same day.
On Monday, Aggreko released its pre-close trading update for the current financial year, in which it maintained its full-year guidance of 13% growth in revenue.
However, the company said that after a strong year, its performance in 2013 would likely be lower.
"The economic environment we will be facing in 2013 is particularly uncertain in many of our markets and it is difficult at this stage to provide a definitive view of the likely pattern of trading in 2013," Aggreko said.
