AG Barr says input costs seen higher from 2017 on weak sterling
(Reuters) - AG Barr Plc, the maker of Irn-Bru and Rubicon fizzy drinks, said it expected input costs to increase from 2017 due to the impact of a weaker pound.
The company said the strength of the sterling, which fell after the UK's historic vote to leave the EU, would not have a significant impact this year.
AG Barr said it expected to meet its full-year profit expectation, assuming market conditions improve and it delivers on its plans for the second half.
