B&M shares plummet after accounting error

B&M shares fell to a record low at one stage yesterday
B&M shares fell sharply yesterday following an accounting mistake that resulted in the company overstating its profits.
The FTSE 250 discount chain revealed it had failed to account for up to £7m in international freight costs, which vanished from its projections “following an operating system update”.
Consequently, B&M has reduced its pretax earnings guidance for the year to £470m-£520m, down from its earlier projection of £510m-£560m.
The group plans to launch a comprehensive “third-party review” into the incident.

HEALTHY START
January is the right time for a reset. Nothing extreme, just food to help you feel good. Think fresh flavours, colourful plates and meals as nourishing as they are comforting. Soothing soups, vibrant salads and a spicy curry are on my menu plus, of course, the odd selection box chocolate which needs eating up!
