DS Smith Plc Analyst Notes
On June 26, 2014, DS Smith Plc (DS Smith) announced financial results for FY 2014 (period ended April 30, 2014). The recycled packaging maker said its profit before tax during the year more-than-doubled to £167 million from £82 million in FY 2013. DS Smith attributed the jump in pretax profit to robust organic growth as well as full-year contribution from Swedish packaging company SCA, which it acquired in 2012. Revenues of the Company also increased 10.0% YoY to £4 billion. However, despite the strong growth in profit and revenue, the stock of DS Smith witnessed a sharp decline on bourses as the Company management warned that the current year results could be affected by a weaker Euro and continued challenging conditions in Europe. The stock fell 5.90% to 287.30 pence on the day of announcement. The full analyst notes on DS Smith are available to download free of charge at:
