Computacenter Keeps Inventories High
The British IT services company said that the group had larger than usual inventories to cope with product shortages.

Total revenue increased by 23%, including the effects of acquisitions made since the start of 2020, and by 27% at constant exchange rates.
The company said its product backlog has never been fuller, with customers ordering earlier to make up for product shortages.
Computacenter expects adjusted profit before tax for the year ending December 31 to be just over 250 million pounds ($338.55 million).
Computacenter will release its final results for the year on Wednesday, March 16, 2022.
