RESTAURANT group Jumbo on Tuesday posted a 1.1 per cent dip in its net profit for the third quarter ended June 30 to S$3.37 million.
Revenue rose 6.4 per cent year on year to S$34.81 million on higher contributions from both its Singapore and China operations, while earnings per share for the quarter were flat at 0.5 Singapore cent.
