Himanshu Raja, the Chief Financial Officer of troubled security giant G4S has given a show of support for the ailing company following news of its loss-making year, with the purchase of 50,000 shares. The deal was made Wednesday, when the group revealed it had swung to a statutory pre-tax loss of £170m, compared to a profit of £313m in 2012. G4S said that although robust global demand, particularly in emerging markets, meant revenues rose 5.8% to £7.43bn, underlying profits rose just 2.8% to £442m before interest, tax and amortisation as lower revenue in Europe and lower US federal government spending hit the secure solutions and systems businesses.The group also announced it had done a deal with the UK government over a prison electronic tagging row, saying it hoped the move would allow it to keep winning public work.G4S said it would refund the Ministry of Justice £96.4m and reimburse it for costs of £12.5m to settle claims arising from electronic monitoring services provided by G4S between 2005 and 2013.Raja spent a total of £116,502 on the shares.
