Rob Versloot, CEO, said: I want to thank all our team members at Rocketbook, Inkbox and Tattly for their hard work and dedication. It is however my responsibility to ensure that all our activities contribute to Groups growth and profitability. Unfortunately, Rocketbook and our Skin Creative businesses did not deliver on their initial expectations, posting significant declines in net sales and profitability since their acquisitions. This decision reflects my determination to shift gears and build a strong foundation for the future of BIC.
