Profits fall at Manx Telecom

Manx Telecom says it made less money last year - with both profits and overall revenue falling.

It's released its half year results for the six months ended June 30, which show revenue dropped by 1.8 per cent to £38.5 million.

Fixed line, broadband and data services were down by 2.9 per cent and datacentre revenues fell 32.3 per cent.

But its mobile arm saw a 3.6 per cent rise thanks to more cash from inbound roaming calls.
