Document management specialist Metrofile said on Tuesday it expects a rise in earnings and a reduction in debt for the six months to December. 

In a note to investors, Metrofile — which provides services for the storage, retrieval and dissemination of documents, among other things — said it expects to report headline earnings per share that is 9% to 22% higher than the 12.9c in the previous comparable period. This metric strips out the effect of once items on earnings. ..
