City diary
NEXT week gets off to a fairly subdued start in the business world with none of the country's corporate heavyweights expected to post any results or announcements. But there are results expected from some of the country's lower-tier firms.
• Social housing landlord and facilities management group Connaught is expected to post its final results.
The firm, which has a Scottish office in Glasgow, posted record pre-tax profits of 13.97 million in the year to the end of August 2006.
That figure is expected to rise even further this year to 17.55m, on the back of a near 90m rise in revenues to 388m.
• Drug discovery, alternative energy and engineering firm bioFusion is also due to show whether it has moved into profitability after posting a 720,000 loss last year, while discounted toys, gifts and books retailer Premier Direct is also to reveal full-year results.
• There are no major economic announcements expected.
