Retail Holdings N.V. reported un-audited consolidated earnings results for the six months ended June 30, 2017. For the six months, the company reported revenue from continuing operations was up 10.2% from prior year, to $256.2 million compared to $231.5 million in last year. Results from operating activities remained unchanged from prior year, a profit of $21.2 million compared to $21.2 million, reflecting the growth in revenue and lower S&A expenses relative to revenue, offset by a decline in profit margin, particularly in Sri Lanka. The company's net profit from continuing operations was $6.0 million compared with a net profit of $8.4 million prior year, the decline is largely a result of higher net finance costs reflecting higher interest rates and additional borrowings in Sri Lanka.
