[ET Net News Agency, 15 July 2020] China International Marine Containers (Group) Co.,
Ltd. (02039) said the group expects the consolidated net profit attributable to
shareholders and other equity holders of the company for the six months ended 30 June 2020
will turn into loss (the corresponding period of last year: profit of RMB679.83 million).
In the first half of 2020, affected by the global spread of the novel coronavirus
epidemic and fluctuations in the international economy and trade activities, the group's
core manufacturing business were affected to a varying degree, leading to a year-on-year
decrease in operating income and profitability. Meanwhile, the group's first half results
suffered a loss due to continuous losses in offshore engineering businesses. (RC)
