Date: Tuesday 18 Mar 2025

(Sharecast News) - FTSE 250 (MCX) 20,105.60 0.39%
Bytes Technology surged as it reported double-digit growth across all key financial metrics over the year to 28 February, with gross invoiced income topping the £2bn mark for the first time.

Shares in Computacenter soared as the IT group turned upbeat on its prospects after a strong second half that helped annual profit nudge ahead of forecasts, despite an uncertain macroeconomic environment and softer market conditions in the UK, offset by stronger performances in the US and Germany.

Recruiter SThree advanced as it held on to its full-year guidance despite a weak first quarter with double-digit declines in fees for both contract and permanent positions.

Trustpilot fell despite lifting its full-year outlook for 2025 following a "strong" performance in 2024.

Qinetiq fell on a downgrade by ShoreCap after poorly-received results on Monday.
