From January to March 2017, the coal sales volume of the Company increased by 22.5% year-on-year, mainly due to the downstream demand of coal representing a year-on-year increase as influenced by factors such as stable and positive development of economic
situation as well as relatively small contribution of hydropower since the beginning of this year. The coal sales volume of the Company this March represented a year-on-year decrease of 13.8%, mainly due to the relatively high base of coal sales volume in March last year, given that the settlements of part of coal sales for January and February 2016 were postponed to March 2016 impacted by the negotiation progress of the contracts.
From January to March, the total power output dispatch of the Company increased by 9.1% year-on-year, mainly attributable to: firstly, a year-on-year increase of coal-fired power generation resulting from a year-on-year increase of electricity consumption throughout PRC and a year-on-year decrease of hydropower generation by power plants above-scale in PRC; secondly, an increase in installed capacity of power generators of the Company.
The major operational data above were calculated based on the internal statistics of the Company. As a result, operational data may show major differences from month to month. The factors giving rise to such differences include, among others, changes in weather, equipment overhaul, seasonal factors, and safety inspection. The major operational data may somewhat differ from the data disclosed in the relative periodic reports. Investors are hereby reminded of the risks which may result from inappropriate reliance upon or utilization of the information given above.
