Carter, and Group Finance Director, Gareth Wright, have each acquired their full annual allocation of shares under the company’s all-colleague equity incentive scheme, ShareMatch.

Spark’s Take on INF Stock

According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, INF is a Neutral.

The score is supported mainly by strong cash generation and solid operational momentum, but it is held back by the sharp drop in reported net income and margin compression, an extremely high P/E valuation risk, and weak longer-term technical trend signals.
