Intertek Group PLC (LSE:ITRK), the product testing and certification company, saw its shares fall more than 8% to 4,266p in early trading on Tuesday despite reporting a third consecutive year of double-digit earnings growth and upgrading its outlook for one of its key divisions.

For the four months to October, revenue was up 2.8% to £1.2 billion, while revenue rose 4.1%, slightly below the 4.5% consensus, due in part to weakness in Transport Technologies and tougher comparators.
