Global adhesives provider HB Fuller has posted a net income of $23.2m for the third quarter of fiscal year 2011, up from $19m in the previous year.
The company said its revenue got a boost from higher average selling prices and favourable currency conversion, even though those gains were partly offset by lower revenue growth.
