LONDON (AP) — Aon PLC, the insurance brokerage, said Friday that its net income fell 2 percent in the second quarter as its expenses rose.
The London-based company said that it earned $241 million, or 76 cents per share, in the three months ended June 30, versus $246 million, or 73 cents per share, in the same period a year ago. Earnings per share rose because the number of shares the company has outstanding shares fell 5 percent in the latest quarter.
Adjusted for charges related to the restructuring of its Aon Hewitt human resources consulting business and other items, the company said that it earned $1.11 per share. That's a penny above the $1.10 per share analysts expected, according to FactSet.
