Net income for the Group and the Company in the second quarter of 1997 was
46% below the same period in 1996. This is due to booking a baht 88 million
provision for foreign exchange losses associated with the flotation of the
baht as a post balance sheet adjusting event in the second quarter results
based on closing exchange rates on 3rd July 1997. Excluding this provision,
net income for the second quarter and half year increased by 11% and 13%,
respectively.
