CTI Reports Possible Reduced Volumes for 2H FY24
CTI Reports Possible Reduced Volumes for 2H FY24
A year ago, Perth-based transport group CTI Logistics upgraded its pre-tax earnings outlook for the December 2022 half year to a 90 per cent from the previous estimate of 60 per cent.
一年前，總部位於珀斯的運輸集團CTI Logistics將其2022年12月半年的稅前收益前景從之前估計的60％上調至90％。
As it was, 2022-23 pre-tax earnings grew more than 81 per cent to $15.68 million, but a slowdown in the six months to June saw most of that growth disappear, and the company reported a 12 per cent rise in before-tax profit to a record $24.7 million.
事實上，2022-23年度的稅前收益增長了81％以上，達到1568萬美元，但在截至6月的六個月中，增長放緩使大部分增長消失了，該公司報告稱，稅前利潤增長了12％，達到創紀錄的2470萬美元。
A year on from the upgrade and CTI has issued a downgrade -- not as dramatic, a 30 per cent fall in pre-tax profit is now the guidance for the half year to December 31.
上調一年後，CTI發佈了降級——截至12月31日的半年中，稅前利潤下降30％並不那麼劇烈。
That will put the pre-tax profit around $12 million, and CTI has made it clear the six months to next June could see more of the same, meaning that the $24 million figure for pre-tax earnings for 2022-23 will not be reached.
這將使稅前利潤約爲1200萬美元，CTI明確表示，在截至明年6月的六個月中，稅前利潤可能會大致相同，這意味着2022-23年度的稅前收益將無法達到2400萬美元的數字。
Directors said in a statement to the ASX Thursday evening that "as reported, the result for the previous corresponding period benefitted from increased demand for premium freight services due to supply chain disruptions and natural disasters, as well as customers incurring additional transport and warehouse storage costs to ensure their product was closer to the point of sale.
董事們在週四晚間向澳大利亞證券交易所發表的一份聲明中表示：“據報道，前一同期的業績得益於供應鏈中斷和自然災害導致對優質貨運服務的需求增加，以及客戶爲確保其產品更接近銷售點而承擔額外的運輸和倉庫存儲成本。
"The current half year reporting period has seen a normalisation of customer supply chains, consistent with the half year to 30 June 2023, with fewer supply chain disruptions and less consequent demand for premium freight services.
“在當前的半年度報告期內，客戶供應鏈實現了正常化，與截至2023年6月30日的半年持平，供應鏈中斷減少了，因此對優質貨運服務的需求也減少了。
"Profit margins for the period have also been impacted by inflationary pressures, with increases in supply-side costs, including greater than expected wage rate rises, increased subcontractor costs, increased property and insurance costs and rising interest rates.
“該期間的利潤率也受到通貨膨脹壓力的影響，供應方成本增加，包括工資增長幅度高於預期、分包商成本增加、財產和保險成本增加以及利率上升。
"As a result, trading volumes and activity could be impacted in the second half of the financial year to 30 June 2024.
“因此，在截至2024年6月30日的財政年度下半年，交易量和活動可能會受到影響。
"The Company continues to generate strong cash flow and plans to complete the development of the remaining land at Hazelmere in Western Australia."
“該公司繼續創造強勁的現金流，並計劃完成西澳大利亞州黑澤爾米爾剩餘土地的開發。”
