Northamber PLC - London-based distributor of audio-visual and information technology equipment - Swings to a pretax loss of £447,000 for the financial year that ended on June 30 from a profit of £385,000 the year before, as administrative costs rise by 21% to £3.4 million from £2.8 million. Says the fall in the value of sterling ‘translated into a swing from a foreign exchange profit of £223,000 in 2021 to a loss of £164,000 in 2022’. Turns to an operating loss of £452,000 from a profit of £377,000 the year before. However, revenue is up 10% to £66.3 million from £60.0 million the year before.
Proposes a final dividend of 0.3 pence per share, down 25% from 0.4p a year prior. Looking ahead, Northamber says it remains ‘cautiously optimistic’ that its investments will drive growth.
