Hungarian PannErgy reports Q1, 2011 income jump
In its quarter report for Q1 of 2011, Hungarian geothermal energy company PannErgy reports an income jump with sales revenues up 13.3% and an operating profit of $470,000.
“Hungarian geothermal energy company PannErgy’s Q1 net income jumped to HUF 185 million ($1 million) from HUF 20 million ($100,000) in the same period a year earlier on the back of a big financial gain, the company’s consolidated IFRS report shows.
Sales revenue was up 13.3% at HUF 4 billion ($20.8 million), but direct cost of sales rose at a faster rate, climbing 19.1% to HUF 3.13 billion ($16.3m) and causing gross margin to edge down 3.7% to HUF 866 million ($4.6m).
Indirect cost of sales of HUF 756 million and “other expenditure” of HUF 58 million ate up gross margin, leaving PannErgy with operating profit of HUF 88 million ($460,000). But the company’s bottom line was lifted by a HUF 119 million financial gain ($620,000), compared to a HUF 91 million ($470,000) financial loss in the base period.
Earnings per share rose to HUF 10 from HUF 1.
PannErgy had total assets of HUF 20.2 billion ($105m) on March 31, 2011, up 8.3% from twelve months earlier. Net assets were practically flat at HUF 10.66 billion ($55m). Long-term liabilities were up 7.4% at HUF 2.13 billion ($11m).”
