The AIM-traded furnishings and fabrics group said that since its interim results were announced on 28 January, the division had benefited from strong trading in the US.
Like-for-like sales in the Fabric division rose 7.0% in the three months to 30 April, despite a strong comparative period a year earlier.
As a result, Colefax said it expected profit before tax for the year ended 30 April to be not less than £10.5m.
At 1234 BST, shares in Colefax Group were up 8.28% at 1,331.8p.
