"I am pleased to report another successful half year for the Group" said Ken Harvey, Chairman. "South West Water continues its very strong operational performance and is well placed to outperform the assumptions for the current K5 regulatory period. Viridor continues to grow and its long-term profit momentum is underpinned by its developing pipeline of major Energy from Waste and PPP projects. I am delighted to say that Pennon Group has invested a further £100m in key infrastructure which supports the development of the UK economy."
The Interim dividend is up 9.6% to 8.22p per share.
