Fevertree says full year results to be 'materially ahead' of expectations

Fevertree Drinks said its full year results are likely to be "materially ahead” of its expectations after a solid second half.

The company, which supplies carbonated mixers for alcoholic spirits, said it has continued to perform strongly in the second half.

Both UK and international sales have been encouraging, driven by distribution gains which have come through earlier than anticipated in its existing markets.

At 1120 GMT, Fevertree shares were up 11.8% at 484.68p.
