“Following the release of a profit alert by Air China (0753), Southern Airlines (1055) forecast yesterday that there would be an annual growth on net profit from 110% to 130% as at the end of last December; calculating on the basis of 1.773 billion yuan (Reminbi, same for below) recorded for the same period of 2014, it meant that there would be a net profit of at least 3.723 billion yuan for last year.”
