FJ should shut down their apparel business.... not that they have the best fashion sense nor such an outstanding international branding of their "Raoul", who outside of a small population in singapore knows of this name? ... yet their expensive rental retail shops are prob killing them...

You may want to note that Arisaig is reducing their stake in the company.

F J Benjamin posts $1.7 mln Q2 FY2010 profit


By JOYCE HOOI

F J Benjamin Holdings announced on Thursday net profit for the second quarter ended Dec 31, 2009 was $1.7 million, up from $611,000 for the same period a year ago because of higher other income and lower costs.

Its Q2 revenue fell 7 per cent to $79 million, year-on-year.

Earnings per share for the quarter stood at 0.3 cents compared to 0.11 cents for the corresponding period the year before.
