SSL International plc Reports Earnings Results for the First Half Ended Sep. 30, 2009
11/25/2009
SSL International plc reported earnings results for the first half ended September 30, 2009. The company reported that first-half profits had jumped 59% as its key brands weathered tough trading conditions. The company was helped by a weaker pound and overseas acquisitions. The company reported a pre-tax profit of 51.9 million for the six months to September 30. Stripping out currency effects, sales of its branded goods grew 3.3% to 321 million as demand for Durex and its Play range of lubricants showed little sign of flagging.
