Turners Auctions has boosted its half year profit, despite a large fall in imports from quake damaged Japan.
The car auction company made $1.6 million in the six months to the end of June - 12% more than in the same period last year.
But revenue fell more than 3%, to $34.9 million.
Chief executive Graham Roberts says the used car business remains challenging because of fewer imports from Japan, and reduced public demand.
Turners Auctions declared an interim dividend of 5 cents per share, and a special dividend of 6c per share.
