Interim results for the six months ended 31 August 2019
Profit before tax 45.2m is up 83% on the same period 2018.

Guidance
As announced on 5 September 2019, group revenue growth for the year to 29 February 2020 is expected to be 33% to 38%, with adjusted EBITDA margin for the financial year to remain at around 10%

At the top end, that gives annual revenue of ~1,182m and ~118m adjusted EBITDA. It’s not clear to me that this company has the ability to scale exponentially like say a software company.
