PARIS (Thomson Financial) - Plastic Omnium said its first-half net profit
fell to 2.5 million euros from 30.2 million under the impact of costs from its
PO 2009 restructuring plan.
The company said operating profit increased slightly to 50.2 million euros
from 47.9 million, despite 16 million euros in additional raw materials costs
and a negative impact from the dollar.
For the full year, Plastic Omnium said it expects to achieve a rise in
operating profit.
