> Net operating earnings were 8% below the comparative period with Aveng Grinaker-LTA generating a materially higher loss and the Mining operating segment's contribution being lower primarily as a result of the reduced order book which was reported on at 30 June 2013. Net financing expenses incurred in the current period were materially higher than the comparative period mainly due to the higher borrowings for the period due to the funding of working capital primarily on the large Queensland Curtis Liquefied Natural Gas project in Australia.
