Interim results from Straightfor the six months to 30 June saw a reduction in revenue and a small reduction in profit.  However, the group has been successfully restructured over the last eighteen months and the board is now implementing a five year plan to create a vertically integrated and diverse group with an international profile.  The two acquisitions made so far this year are a first step in this direction and the full benefits of these should start to be felt going forward.
