Passage: And while there was no profit this year from discontinued operations, last year they contributed #34 million, before tax. Pretax profit fell 3.7% to #128 million from #133 million and was below analysts' expectations of #130 million to #135 million, but shares rose 6 pence to 388 pence in early trading yesterday in London.
What event has already finished? What event has begun but has not finished? What will happen in the future? What happened after trading? What didn't happen this year after operation were discontinued? What happened after the analysts formed their expectations?
