Nov 17 (Reuters) - Royal Mail's parent company
International Distributions Services IDSI.L reported a
first-half loss of 57 million pounds ($67.88 million) as higher
costs and disruptions arising from strikes by its postal workers
put a strain on its finances.
The former British postal monopoly, which recently changed
the name of its holding company from Royal Mail Plc, still
expects full-year adjusted operating loss for the UK business of
around 350 million to 450 million pounds.
