Share Share Share Share Send as Email

In an earnings release signed by the Company Secretary, NB attributed the loses to shifts in the Nigeria business landscape in the year in review.

First was the redesign of he naira notes which resulted in cash shortage that severely hampered social and economic activities nationwide.

High double-digit inflation rates (with food inflation at more than 30%),
removal of subsidy on premium motor spirit (fuel), devaluation of the naira, and foreign exchange scarcity further exacerbated the already difficult environment for the populace and businesses, says the company in its press release.

Notwithstanding, the Company was able to grow its revenue by 9% compared to the previous year aided by positive price mix.

However, the operating profit fell by 15% due to higher input cost and one-off reorganisation cost despite strong and aggressive cost savings and other efficiency measures.

Coupled with the impact of the devaluation of the naira which resulted in a foreign exchange loss of N153 billion, the Company recorded a net loss of N106 billion during the year.
