Accsys Technologies PLC - London-based wood building products manufacturer - Posts revenue of €162.0 million for the financial year that ended on March 31, up 34% from €120.9 million the year before. Underlying earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortisation double to €22.9 million from €10.4 million the year before. Says the rise in both revenue and underlying Ebita is driven by increased sales prices and strong ongoing demand for Accsys products. However, swings to a pretax loss of €67.1 million from a profit of €1.7 million, as operating costs rise to €127.3 million from €31.7 million the year before. Explains that an impairment loss of €86.0 million is recognised in the recent year. The impairment relates to the company’s purchase of full ownership of its Tricoya Hull plant from partners.
