(Reuters) – Britain’s DS Smith said on Thursday it expects to report annual results in line with expectations, as a pandemic-driven boom in online shopping boosted its sales volumes and improved performance in the United States.
DS Smith, which supplies packaging products to companies including Amazon, Nestle and Unilever, also said it saw input costs rise significantly during the second half of the financial year on lower availability of raw materials due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
