Explanations of the operating results and financial condition
In the first half of 2016, the Company remained focused on "clinging to reforms, maintaining growth and boosting development" as the goal of work. By carrying out a series of measures such as unleashing potentials and capacity expansion, lowering costs by efficiency enhancement, etc., production and sales volume of key metal products grew steadily, results of ordinary production and operation also indicated a rather significant growth compared with the same period last year. Nevertheless, under the influence of hedging, the income of certain products did not benefit from the price rise, resulting in decline in the overall profit of the Group.
