Hargreaves profit down 75% as coal sales fall
LONDON--Mining services group Hargreaves Services PLC (HSP.LN) Wednesday reported a 75% fall in first-half pretax profit as a result of a decline in coal trading. Hargreaves said continuing pretax profit in the six months ended Nov. 30 fell to 173,000 pounds ($215,559) from GBP0.8 million a year earlier, while revenue fell 2.2% to GBP171 million. The group blamed the revenue fall on a reduction in coal sales and industrial service revenues following the closure of Redcar steelworks in north-east England and a number of coal-fired power stations. Underlying operating profit was GBP2.1 million compared with GBP4.1 million a year earlier. Net debt at the end of the first half was GBP36.9 million, up 19.8% versus the same period a year ago.
