Fashion retailer Esprit Holdings Ltd. (0330.HK) said Thursday
its net profit for the 12 months ended June 30 fell 98%, weighed by
provision for store closures.
The blue-chip company's full-year net profit fell to HK$79
million (US$10.1 million) from HK$4.23 billion a year earlier, far
below the average HK$3.16 billion forecast of 16 analysts surveyed
by Thomson Reuters.
Hong Kong-listed Esprit, which competes globally with Hennes
& Mauritz AB (HM-B.SK) and Zara's parent company Inditex SA
(ITX.MC) in the retail apparel market, said revenue edged higher to
HK$33.77 billion from HK$33.73 billion.
The company, which booked a HK$1.7 billion provision loss for
store closures, said it is closing down all the directly managed
retail stores in Spain, Denmark and Sweden. It also said it plans
to divest its business in North America.
Still, the company said it plans to invest over HK$18 billion
until the fiscal year 2014/2015.
It didn't propose a final dividend. For the previous fiscal year
ended June 30, 2010, the company paid a final dividend of
HK$0.67.
