Carbacid Investments recorded a 10.3 percent drop in net profit to Sh434.9 million in the half year ended January as a stronger shilling eroded the value of its sales in the regional markets.

The carbon dioxide manufacturer, whose product is used by producers of alcohol and soft drinks, had posted a net income of Sh485.1 million a year earlier.
