Auto Trader Group PLC said Thursday that pretax profit for the first half of fiscal 2022 rose as revenue increased, and that the stock lever--which shows year-over-year movement--will likely represent a small headwind for the full year.
汽车交易集团(Auto Trader Group PLC)周四说，2022财年上半年的税前利润随着收入的增加而上升，股票杠杆(显示同比走势)可能会对全年构成小幅不利因素。
The London-listed car-listing publisher said the board is confident about the second half of the year. It expects modest on-year growth in retailer forecourt numbers and low double-digit average revenue per retailer, or ARPR, compared with fiscal 2020's levels.
这家在伦敦上市的汽车上市出版商表示，董事会对今年下半年充满信心。该公司预计，与2020财年的水平相比，零售商前院数量将温和增长，每家零售商的平均收入(ARPR)将低于两位数。
Pretax profit for the half year ended Sept. 30 was 150 million pounds ($201.1 million), compared with GBP66.2 million a year earlier, the company said.
截至9月1日的半年的税前利润。该公司表示，30亿英镑(约合2.01亿美元)，而去年同期为6620万英镑。
Revenue came in at GBP215.4 million, compared with GBP118.2 million and an estimate of GBP189 million, taken from FactSet and based on one analyst's estimate.
收入为2.154亿英镑，相比之下，来自FactSet的收入为1.182亿英镑，预期为1.89亿英镑，这是基于一位分析师的估计。
Monthly ARPR--a key metric for the company--rose to GBP2,199 from GBP1,206 a year earlier, and was up 13% from the first half of fiscal 2020.
该公司的关键指标-月度ARPR从一年前的1,206英镑升至2,199英镑，较2020财年上半年上涨了13%。
"The number of people using Auto Trader to buy their next car is at record levels, more retailers are choosing to partner with us, and our competitive position has strengthened," Chief Executive Nathan Coe said.
首席执行官Nathan Coe表示：“使用Auto Trader购买下一辆汽车的人数达到创纪录水平，更多零售商选择与我们合作，我们的竞争地位得到加强.”
