Future's reported a revenue rise of 2 percent and a pre-tax profit 3 percent for fiscal 2008.

The good news, however, was tempered by the company's share price falling to its lowest ever level by yesterday's close of trading, finishing at 9.5 pence per share - a market cap of £31 million.

Revenue was up from £159.2 million last year to £162.9 million for the 12 months ending September 30 this year, while pre-tax profit was £9.5 million, compared to £9.2 million in 2007.
