The board of directors of Xiamen International Port Co., Ltd. announced that based on its preliminary assessment of the unaudited management accounts of the Group for the six months ended 30 June 2014, the Group is expected to record an increase of approximately 50% in its unaudited net profit for the six months ended 30 June 2014, as compared with that for the six months ended 30 June 2013. The above increase is mainly due to the related income arising from the various land resumption and asset resumption transactions carried out between the Group and Xiamen Land Development Centre and the improvement of the general business conditions and the growth in the throughput of port cargos, leading to the corresponding increase in the operating income of the Group's port businesses.
