CHINA Aviation Oil (Singapore) (CAO) posted a 26 per cent rise in net profit to US$23.9 million for its third quarter ended Sept 30, from US$18.9 million a year earlier.
This was mainly due to higher gross profit and lower operating expenses, partially offset by a lower share of results from associates, the jet fuel trader said on Friday. Earnings per share stood at 2.77 US cents, up from 2.2 US cents a year ago. No dividend was declared for the quarter, unchanged from a year ago.
