ITE Group Plc, a trade exhibition and conference organizer, said it expected its first-half revenue to be about 21 percent lower than a year earlier due to weaker trading conditions in Ukraine and Russia.
The company, which has been hurt by tensions between Russia and Ukraine as well as a weaker ruble, said it expected revenue to be about 56 million pounds in the six months to March 31, lower than the 71 million pounds it posted a year earlier.
A Message from The Moscow Times:
Dear readers,
We are facing unprecedented challenges. Russia's Prosecutor General's Office has designated The Moscow Times as an "undesirable" organization, criminalizing our work and putting our staff at risk of prosecution. This follows our earlier unjust labeling as a "foreign agent."
These actions are direct attempts to silence independent journalism in Russia. The authorities claim our work "discredits the decisions of the Russian leadership." We see things differently: we strive to provide accurate, unbiased reporting on Russia.
We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. But to continue our work, we need your help.
Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just $2. It's quick to set up, and every contribution makes a significant impact.
By supporting The Moscow Times, you're defending open, independent journalism in the face of repression. Thank you for standing with us.
Remind me later.
