- Oilfield services group Petrofac (LON:PFC) said it expects a tough 2020 marked by falling revenue and high investment needs.

- Net margins in the engineering and construction unit, which accounts for the bulk of revenue, are expected to fall due to a bigger share of business coming from lower-margin markets.
- Ticketing company Trainline (LON:TRNT) said it expected revenue growth of somewhere in the region of 20-25% for the year, in line with prior guidance.
