ITE展覽公司2014年稅前收入逆勢上揚

英國國際貿易展覽公司（ITE）日前公布的財報顯示，在2014年，公司運營收入為1.75億英鎊（2013年為1.92億英鎊），稅前總收入達6，000萬英鎊（2013年為5，900萬英鎊）。

在過去一年中，ITE在東歐的展會業務受到烏克蘭政治動蕩和英鎊相對堅挺的影響，否則，其業務開展與運營收入可能更為出色。最為顯著的是，ITE將繼續積極布局亞洲市場。公司已收購中國國際涂料展（Chinacoat）和印尼一個建筑行業展會50%的股份，作為進軍中國和印尼市場的開局之作。（蘇希玲）

Good result achieved in difficult market conditions

ITE？has reported revenues of ￡175m （2013： ￡192m）， and record headline profits before tax of ￡60m （2013： ￡59m） for the 2014 financial year. The political upheaval in Ukraine and the relative strength of Sterling against ITE’s principal trading currencies have had a significant impact on the year’s results and held back what would have otherwise been an even stronger financial and operating performance. Importantly， the Group has continued its strategy to diversify its business interests into Asia with the acquisition of 50% interests in the Chinacoat exhibition and the Indonesian construction event， which are first steps in China and Indonesia.？
