ROBINSON PLC LS-,005

Robinson reports first-half revenue rising to £28.9m, but adjusted operating profit plunged to £0.9m and gross margin fell from 22% to 20%. The board lowers the full-year forecast to an adjusted operating profit of £2.2–2.6m, citing intensified competition, inflation-driven input costs related to the Middle East conflict, and problems in the Polish business. Management is responding with a reorganisation and new commercial and operations chiefs, while net debt rises to £6.4m and the shares lose around 5.7%. » Más en de.investing.com
