LONDON (Reuters) – British online fashion retailer ASOS (LON:) said on Thursday inflationary pressure was increasingly impacting customers’ shopping behaviour, resulting in significantly higher levels of returns as it announced a new chairman and chief executive.
The company said it expected revenue to grow by 4% to 7% this year, with adjusted pre-tax profit coming in between 20 million pounds and 60 million pounds ($24-$73 million).
It said it had appointed Jose Antonio Ramos Calamonte, currently chief commercial officer, as chief executive, and Jorgen Lindemann as chair. ($1 = 0.8234 pounds)
