Basic earnings a share were expected to be between 18c and 23c a share, compared with an earnings loss of 7,1c a share for the six months ended June 2009.

The producer highlighted that it had recorded a €5-million special item gain during the first half of this year, as opposed to the €78-million special item charge incurred during the first half of last year.
