A staggering £130 million potential profit is being wasted in the intruder alarm systems industry every year.
This is due to blatant under-performing and a failure by company leaders to focus on the bottom line, according to a report by Plimsoll Portfolio Analysis*.

   It finds that more than a quarter of companies in the sector are making a loss and half of all companies are making less than a nine per cent return on their investment.

   Senior analyst David Pattison commented: "These figures show just how competitive the UK burglar and intruder alarm systems industry has become. The ability to make a profit is now becoming the exception, not the norm."

The Plimsoll analysis has given each of the top 352 companies in the industry a 'Profit Plan' which identifies how each needs to focus on its bottom line and make more profit. Using budgeted figures, the analysis shows £130 million in extra profit could be created.
