SINGAPORE (Feb 9): Luxury watch retailer The Hour Glass saw its earnings fall by 8% to $13.4 million for the third quarter ended 31 Dec, mainly due to higher costs.
Revenue for the quarter grew 5% to $196 million from $186.4 million a year ago.
This was more than offset by higher total costs and expenses, which increased by 6% in 3Q17 to $180.5 million from $170.9 million in 3Q16 – largely attributable to a 9% increase in cost of goods sold for the current quarter to $152.2 million.
