  • Revenue year on year was down 12% to N23.3billion
  • The drop in revenues of 12% was higher than the drop in cost of sales of 9.5% ensuring that gross profit margins will weaken by 16% year on year. Gross profit quarter on quarter also dropped by 3%.
  • Operating expenses for the three months to September 2014 increased by N300million to N2.3billion considering that the company averaged about N2billion in the preceding quarters.
  • This sent adjusted operating profits tumbling by a further 45% year on year.
