By Xavier Fontdegloria
ADVFN PLC on Wednesday reported a swing to a pretax profit for fiscal 2021 on higher revenue as the business was boosted by Covid-19 related lockdowns, a boom in cryptocurrency markets and the rise of a new generation of investors.
The London-listed provider of financial information posted a pretax profit of 1.6 million pounds ($2.2 million) for the year ended June 30, compared with a pretax loss of GBP349,000 a year earlier.
The company said revenue increased 28% to GBP9.1 million from GBP7.1 million a year ago.
ADVFN said that measures to cope with the Covid-19 pandemic over the period raised interest in trading and investing, increasing the company's subscriptions and advertising revenue. A growing interest in the cryptocurrency market and activity coming from a new generation of traders also provided tailwind to the business, it said.
The company declared a dividend of 1.5 pence a share for fiscal 2021.
