M&S profits soar to nine-year high
07/11/2006 - 07:17:43The recovery of Marks & Spencer continued today when it banked its biggest profits haul for nine years.
The high street giant said pre-tax profits were up 32.2% to £405.1m (€604.3m) in the six months to September 30.
It came as group sales lifted 11% to £3.93bn (€5.86bn), driven by a high- profile advertising campaign featuring 1960s style icon Twiggy.
