BUZZ-Rotork: Q3 orders bite

** British industrial group Rotork (Frankfurt: RO41.F - news) down 7.7 pct, bottom of London's midcap index

** Q3 order intake falls 4 pct, reflecting the variation in the timing of project orders and deliveries compared with 2017

** Rotork says upstream activities were lower than the comparative period as was the power market

** Eastern Europe revenue fell in Q3, hurt by project delivery timings

** "Q3 organic revenue growth of 10% is strong but a 2% organic order decline is less so", Liberum analysts say
