Aug 12 (Reuters) - Australian high-street retailer Myer Holdings Ltd said on Thursday it expected an annual profit for fiscal 2021, compared with a loss last year, despite store closures and headwinds due to the pandemic.

The company forecast net profit after tax between A$47 million and A$50 million ($34.65 million to $36.86 million) for the year ending July, compared with a net loss after tax of A$11.3 million in fiscal 2020.
