Jan 9 (Reuters) - Recruiter Robert Walters Plc said on Thursday its fourth-quarter gross profit fell 7% as employer and candidate confidence in the UK dwindled due to political uncertainty surrounding Brexit and the December elections.
The company, which warned in October of flat growth in full-year earnings, said overall gross profit or net fee income dropped to 94.2 million pounds ($123.53 million) for the quarter ended Dec. 31 from 102.3 million pounds a year earlier.
