Dalian Port (PDA) Company Limited provided consolidated earnings guidance for the six months ended June 30, 2019. The group is expected to record an increase in the Group's net profit attributable to shareholders for the six months ended 30 June 2019 by approximately 40% to 60% as compared with that for the corresponding period in 2018. The improvement in the performance of the Group is mainly due to the increase in revenue attributed by returning major customers in the Group's oil storage segment, which was partially offset by the application of Accounting Standards for Business Enterprises No. 21 ­ Lease since 1 January 2019 and by a decrease in exchange gain against the U.S. dollars for the six months ended 30 June 2019.
