Dusseldorf, do I gather from your presence here and on the CYC thread that you are an enthusiast for the chinese market?

[dusseldorf] 27/6/2003 14:04

Somebody is unloading some stock. I guess they'd hoped for more of a rise from the results. I'll wait until they've finished and then pick some more up.

[capricorn_1] 26/6/2003 13:04

That would be my guess too, assuming their operations continue to improve.

[dusseldorf] 26/6/2003 12:52

Hopefully somebody is now tasked with updating the fundamentals page. I'm guessing it will probably be another 6 months before any possible dividend? do you know any better Capricorn?

[capricorn_1] 26/6/2003 12:31

Agreed. Let's hope others will think so too!

Highlights of a very encouraging set of results!:

FINANCIAL RESULTS

This financial period has seen the emergence of the benefit resulting from the
reverse take-over in May 2002 and the hard work of the management in 2002. The
audited consolidated profit attributable to shareholders for the year ended 31
December 2002 was #2,594,107, representing a successful recovery from losses of
#161,874 in the year ended 31 March 2002. Basic and diluted earnings per share
were 0.1536 pence and 0.1532 pence respectively. Most encouraging of all, the
reverse take-over has created a healthy balance sheet with a low gearing ratio
and a steady income platform. At 31 December 2002, the consolidated total assets
and shareholders' funds of the Group were #56,597,839 and #38,827,535
respectively, representing substantial increases in comparison to the previous
year. This reflected the success of the Group's new strategy in power plant
operation, logistics services and international trading.

The positive financial results have apparently brought an immediate effect on
the trading of the Company's shares. The number of transactions and share price
have maintained a steady rise ever since the announcement of the interim results
for the six months 30 September 2002. As at 31 December 2002, the market
capitalization of the Company was #129.2 million.

The unaudited consolidated profit of Arko Energy Holdings plc for the six months
ended 30 September 2002 was #1,921,217, compared with a loss of #88,468 for the
same period last year. This turnaround reflects the success of Arko's strategy
of acquiring and investing in power plant, logistics and shipping businesses to
drive growth and profits. The Group's businesses continue to perform well and in
line with expectation. In addition there are a number of projects which are
still in the development stage and the management believe they offer strong
growth potential for the Company in the near future. This includes the granite
quarry in Fujian Province, the coal-mining project in Ningxia Province in China,
and the construction of eight new vessels for the logistics business.
