Timah Q1 profits fall 51% on lower deliveries

 
State-owned tin miner PT Timah recorded lower first quarter (Q1) profits due to a reduction in sales.
The company's QI net profit booked was Rp 102.8 billion; a decline of around 51 percent compared to Rp 207.7 billion in the same period of last year.
The company reported lower revenue -- of around 30 percent --during the January to March period from Rp 2.17 trillion in 2012 to Rp 1.53 trillion in Q1 this year. The revenue decline was attributed to lower refined tin sales volume; 5,820 metric tons during the first three months of 2013, a year on year decline of around 35 percent from 9,022 metric tons.
The company's average selling price stood at $23.910 per metric tons, an increase of 4 percent compared to $23,101 in the first quarter of 2012.
