Net Profit Attributable to Shareholders of the Company Amounted
to RMB1.205 Billion, an Increase of 5.73%
BEIJING, April 25/Xinhua-PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Huaneng Power International, Inc. (the "Company") (NYSE: HNP; HKEx: 902; SSE: 600011) announced on April 24 its unaudited results for the three months ended March 31, 2007.
Under the PRC Accounting Standards, for the first quarter of 2007, the Company realized consolidated operating revenues of RMB11.183 billion, representing an increase of 10.32% over the same period last year. Net profit attributable to shareholders of the Company amounted to RMB1.205 billion, representing an increase of 5.73% over the same period last year. The Company’s total power generation on a consolidated basis amounted to 38.867 billion kWh, an increase of 7.61% over the same period last year.
Effective from the first quarter of 2007, the statutory financial statements of the Company are compiled in accordance with the "Accounting Standards for Enterprises" issued by the PRC Ministry of Finance in 2006. According to the stipulations under "Question and Answer No.7 Regarding the Rules on Information Disclosure for Companies That Publicly Offer Securities - Compilation and Disclosure of Comparative Financial and Accounting Information During the Transition Period between the New and Old Accounting Standards", adjustments were made on the profit and loss statement for the same period last year and the comparative balance sheet as at the end of last year as well as stating the adjusted profit and loss statement as the comparative profit and loss statement of the reporting period. In addition, after 4 January 2007, the shareholding of the Company in Huaneng Sichuan Hydropower Company Limited ("Sichuan Hydropower") decreased from 60% to 49% and the scope of consolidation for the financial statements for the first quarter of 2007 did not include Sichuan Hydropower anymore.
During the first quarter of 2007, the power generation, revenues, net profit attributable to shareholders of the Company and earnings per share of the Company and its subsidiaries increased to various extents when compared with the first quarter of 2006. Regarding power output, owing to a continued growth in social power demand, the new generating units of the Company have obtained a share in the market and the power output of the Company and its subsidiaries increased by 7.47% when compared with the same period of last year (excluding Sichuan Hydropwoer). However, the Company’s power generation growth was below the national average. The unit fuel cost for power output of the Company increased by 9.22% compared with the same period last year. The Company faced relatively substantial operating pressure in terms of power output and fuel cost control.
Huaneng Power International, Inc. develops, constructs, operates and manages large-scale power plants in China nationwide, with a total generation capacity of 28,187MW on an equity basis and a total controlling generation capacity of 32,224MW. The Company wholly owns seventeen operating power plants, and has controlling interests in twelve operating power companies and minority interests in five operating power companies. Currently, it is the largest listed power producer in China.
