Carpetright Still Sees Falling Sales

London, England, Oct. 25, 2011 -- Carpetright, Britain's biggest floor covering retailer, said full-year net income would be toward the lower end of analysts' expectations.

Carpetright, which runs 643 stores in Britain, Ireland, Belgium and the Netherlands, added it saw no improvement over the next year.

Sales at British stores open over a year fell 3% in the 12 weeks to Oct. 22, the group's fiscal second quarter. That was worse than a 0.2% drop in the first quarter.
