Market Update

Published: Tuesday, May 26, 2009

The Directors of Beyond International Limited (ASX: BYI) have revised the Net Profit target range of the Company for the 2009 financial year to a range between $4.7 million and $5.1 million (2008 Net Profit $4.992 million). This compares to the Director’s original Net Profit target range for the 2009 financial year of $5.7 to $6 million.

The Net Profit target revision has been caused by the recent strengthening in the Australian dollar exchange rate against the major currencies, difficult trading conditions in the Australian retail DVD markets, and the one-off costs associated with the integration of the Beyond Home Entertainment (BHE) and the Magna Pacific business in Brisbane and the associated closure of certain BHE Melbourne-based activities.

In February 2009 the acquisition of the Magna Pacific business was completed and the consolidation of all BHE’s warehousing, shipping, packaging, procurement and financial administration into the Magna Pacific Brisbane site was initiated. This consolidation will be completed by 30 June 2009 and fully expensed in the current financial year together with all acquisition expenses.

The Directors expect to be able to confirm a final dividend of 3 cents per share (unfranked) with the finalisation and release of the audited financial statements for the 2009 financial year in late August 2009.
