Australia-based retail wholesaler Funtastic ( ASX:FUN) predicts challenging trading conditions in the year ahead.



However, in the six months to January 31, Funtastic posted a net profit of $9.2 million, a solid 68 per cent profit surge on the previous corresponding period.



Funtastic says the bumper result proves its growth strategy is working.



Investors will receive a dividend of half a cent per share, fully franked.
