Key financial indicators for the third quarter 2015 were:

  • Profits down 39% with profits at the low end of forecasts for the end of the year.

  • The UK point of consumption tax cost the company £23 million

  • Net Revenue was down 9%

  • Retail profits were down 31%

  • Online profits were down 37%
