由于7M英镑会计错误、英国销售额下降和首席财务干事离任,B&M削减了年度利润预测。 B&M cuts annual profit forecast due to £7M accounting error, lower UK sales, and CFO departure.

B&M已经在一个月中第二次降低了其年度利润预测,援引了早先系统更新的700万英镑会计错误,未能记录海外运费,将半年调整后收入从1.98亿英镑减少到1.91亿英镑,将全年指导从4.70亿英镑减少到5.20亿英镑。 B&M has lowered its annual profit forecast for the second time in a month, citing a £7 million accounting error from an earlier system update that failed to record overseas freight costs, reducing half-year adjusted earnings to £191 million from £198 million and narrowing full-year guidance to £470 million to £520 million. 该公司还报告说,英国的类似销售由于工资和包装税的提高而下降1.1%,并宣布CFO Mike Schmidt将下台。 The company also reported a 1.1% drop in UK like-for-like sales, driven by higher wages and packaging taxes, and announced CFO Mike Schmidt will step down. B&M计划对错误进行第三方审查,并实施了价格削减和其他措施以稳定业绩,同时仍然期望在狭窄范围内实现二分之二的销售增长。 B&M plans a third-party review of the error and has implemented price cuts and other measures to stabilize performance, while still expecting second-half sales growth within a narrow range.
