dtr reports Christmas sales figures


AUCKLAND, 6 January 2011 – New Zealand retailer dtr reported impressive figures for the Christmas shopping season, in contrast to a sector that has continued to struggle in the wake of recovering from the recession.

The company experienced an 8% increase in sales for the October-December period when compared with the same three months of 2009. In addition, there was a year-on-year sales increase of 7% and an increase of 19% from November to December (2010).

The company re-affirmed its belief that it is on track for a 40 percent increase in Earnings Before Interest and Tax (EBIT) in the FY11 Financial Year. This would represent an increase of 24% since the management buy-out in 2006.

dtr offers a wide range of products including audio visual, whiteware, furniture, fitness equipment, mobiles, computers and gaming, with brands like Sony, Panasonic, LG, Simpson, Vodafone, Playstation and Sleepyhead, among others.
