Re.: Clarifications on company's performances in the third quarter
and nine-month of 2005
Attached are a copy each of Thai and English version of the
unaudited interim financial statements (both consolidated and on
the company only) of Padaeng Industry Public Company Limited for
the third quarter and nine-month period ended 30 September 2005
together with clarifications on the company's performances during
the said periods for the SET's information as follows:
From the company's consolidated statement of income for
the third quarter of 2005, total sales from revenues and services
was Bt1,394.3m which decreased by Bt33.8m or a 2.4% decreased from
the same quarter of last year. There was a net profit of Bt108.9m
or a net profit per share of Bt0.48 compared to net profit of Bt67.4m
or a net profit per share of Bt0.30 in the same period of year 2004,
a 61.5% increased.
From the company's consolidated statement of income for the
nine-month of 2005, total sales from revenues and services was
Bt4,516.1m which increased from the same period of last year by
Bt260.0m or a 6.1% increased. There was a net profit of Bt441.9m
or a net profit per share of Bt1.96 compared to net profit of Bt197.8m
or a net profit per share of Bt0.88 in the same period of year 2004,
a 123.4% increased.
Increase in net profit despite the lower sales volume is due
mainly to a much higher LME zinc price in 2005 and the increased input
of silicate ore from the company's mine at Mae Sot even though it is
somewhat limited by the forward sales of metal locked-in in 2004 to
protect against such zinc price fluctuations.
Please be informed accordingly.
Yours truly,
