LONDON, Sept 16 (Reuters) - Debenhams Plc, Britain's second-largest
department store chain, said on Tuesday it expected full-year profit before tax
and its net debt position at year-end to be in line with the consensus of market
expectations.
In a trading update the group said its gross transaction value increased
1.3 percent in the year to Aug. 30, while like-for-like sales fell 0.9 percent.
It said its gross margin was flat on last year.
