B&Mは7mの会計エラー,イギリスの売り上げの低減,CFO離脱により年間利益の予測を削る.
B&M cuts annual profit forecast due to £7M accounting error, lower UK sales, and CFO departure.
B&Mはその年間収益予測を1か月で2回目に下げ,海外の貨物運送費を記録しなかった前制度の更新から770万ポンドの会計ミスを生じ,半年分の調整収入を1980万ポンドから1億9100万ポンドに削減し,全年度のガイドラインを4億7500万ポンドに短縮した.
B&M has lowered its annual profit forecast for the second time in a month, citing a £7 million accounting error from an earlier system update that failed to record overseas freight costs, reducing half-year adjusted earnings to £191 million from £198 million and narrowing full-year guidance to £470 million to £520 million.
また同社はイギリスで,高い賃金と包装税で1.1%の減少を報告し,CFO マイク・シュミットが辞任すると発表した.
The company also reported a 1.1% drop in UK like-for-like sales, driven by higher wages and packaging taxes, and announced CFO Mike Schmidt will step down.
B&Mは,エラーの概要を三回目の評価を計画し,価格削減その他の措置を実施し,性能を安定させるとともに,まだ範囲内において2分の1の売上増加を期待している.
B&M plans a third-party review of the error and has implemented price cuts and other measures to stabilize performance, while still expecting second-half sales growth within a narrow range.
