Action Computer Supplies Holdings Plc, the UK-based hardware and software reseller, has reported net income for the six months through February 26 down 14.5% at 1.8m pounds ($2.9m) on revenue up 30.3% to 140.9m pounds ($228m). Pre-tax profit dipped 14.5% to 2.7m pounds ($4.4m). Earnings per share fell 14.7% to 5.2 pence ($0.84). The company says that first half performance was hit by lack of growth in PC sales. PC sales and large customer spending in the opening weeks of the second half have also been weak. The board says it is still in discussions with a third party that may lead to an offer for the company. Figures were converted at 0.62 pounds to the dollar.
