Louis plc provided earnings guidance for the year 2020. As a result of outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, the group is expected to suffer substantial losses for 2020 which will, however, be covered by the profit of €84 million realized from the sale of five hotels of Louis Hotels in Green in January 2020. Taking all currently available information and forecast into consideration, the result for the year is expected to be a net profit of between €11 and €15 million.
