The company blamed foreign exchange rates for a 4 per cent decline in margins and said it would suffer from the worldwide component shortage. The majority of Psion sales are conducted in the euro, while components are priced in US dollars.
Falling consumer demand for PC modem cards also contributed, although OEM sales are good.
