RETAILER Harvey Norman Holdings says its nine-months sales rose 2.2 per cent to the end of March 2010.
In like for like sales for the same nine months ended March 31, 2010, turnover increased by 1.4 per cent compared to the corresponding period in 2009.
The improvement in sales came about despite the negative impact of currency depreciation, following a 2.9 per cent fall in the New Zealand dollar, a 13.6 per cent drop in the euro and a 21.6 per cent decline in the British pound, the company said in a statement.
Shares in Harvey Norman were down 10 cents, or 2.8 per cent, at $3.47 by 10.57am AEST.
