LONDON-BASED tech company Computacenter has said the UK market "remained challenging" during its first-quarter, although its business in Germany and North America performed well.

The FTSE 250 company said first quarter trading was "broadly in line with" expectations as revenue normalised following a period last year which benefited from a small number of "exceptional contracts".

"Germany and North America delivered solid underlying performances while the UK remained challenging," Computacenter said.

The firm, which assists businesses in setting up and managing their computer systems and software efficiently, expects adjusted pre-tax profit for the first half to be below the same period in 2023.
