LONDON (Reuters) - Diagnostics company Axis Shield (ASD.L) reported full year trading in line with management expectations on Tuesday.

In a trading update, the company said it would book revenues up 26 percent for the year, or 14 percent on a constant currency basis.

It also predicted strong growth going forward because of its broad trading base.

However it said it would book about a 1.7 million pounds charge because of the strength of the Euro.
