Hickson issues ag-chem warning

HICKSON, the speciality chemicals group, has warned that its second-half performance will be “significantly” affected by a reduction in agrochemicals stock by its most important customer.

The news came as the company reported pre-tax profits in the half-year to 30 June of £3.4 million, against £5.6m last time. Sales were £108m, against £114.9m.
