The Dalgety Group

Andrew M. McCosh and Michael J. Earl

Chapter 6 in Accounting Control and Financial Strategy, 1978, pp 45-58 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Dalgety had been growing steadily from 1971 onwards. That year was a poor one for the company, with earnings per share falling to 7.5 pence. But the growth since then had enabled an e.p.s. of 38.4 pence to be recorded in 1974. This was achieved by growth in operating profits from £3.6m to £19.15m in the four years.
