By GlobalData“We have again demonstrated our quality and
durability and while a doubling of profits is very commendable in
the light of the economic backdrop, the profit level is below our
potential.
“There are some excellent opportunities available in
our sector resulting from reduced competition and we intend to do
all we can to take advantage of them.”
