Today it will tell analysts and investors how will save around £13m in the 2005 financial year to reduce costs by 10 per cent. Finding an extra £13m per year will cost the firm £9m, including £5m relating to the integration of recently acquired Online Travel Corporation. As reported in August, this will result in the closure of six offices in the UK, four overseas, and the loss of 350 jobs. Most of the costs will be recognised as exceptional items in Q4.
