Abterra Ltd. provided consolidated earnings guidance for the full year ended December 30, 2012. Following a preliminary assessment of the unaudited consolidated financial results of the group, the company expects to report a further loss for the full year 2012 due to substantial increase in currency translation loss from the deposit paid for the acquisition of 54.42% of equity interest in Zuoquan Xinrui Metallurgy Mine Co. Ltd. which is denominated in RMB, due to weakening in RMB, and decrease in revenue due to the inadequacy of suitable credit facilities held by the group, which limited trading activities in full year 2012.
