Shares in Fyffes dropped sharply at the beginning of May when it predicted that full-year results would slip by EUR9m (US$11.5m) because it had not been able to pass higher fruit, shipping and fuel costs and less favourable exchange rates on to customers.

By noon today (GMT), shares in Fyffes had subsequently risen by 2.13% to EUR1.44, from today’s opening price of EUR1.41.
