British currency printer De La Rue’s Kenyan subsidiary recorded a 58 per cent drop in profit for the six months to September 2022, signalling a fall in the share of profits this year for the National Treasury which holds a 40 per cent stake in the unit.
The UK firm operates locally through its subsidiary De La Rue Kenya EPZ Limited, which for the half-year period reported a profit of £0.5 million (Sh74 million), down from £1.2 million (Sh177.5 million) in the corresponding period last year.
