SINGAPORE: Singapore-listed China Fishery has posted a 6.6 per cent on-year jump in second quarter net profit to US$25 million, thanks to lower operating and fuel costs.
Revenue, however, slipped 22 per cent to US$107 million because the firm decided to even out its vessel utilisation throughout the year in the North Pacific Ocean, reducing annual costs without reducing annual catch.
This also meant that the firm's trawling operations were lower in the second quarter of this year, compared to the same period last year, leading to a decline in sales.
Looking ahead, China Fishery said it expects to remain profitable as industry fundamentals remain positive.
The firm plans to stake out a higher quota for itself in the South Pacific Ocean and is considering purchasing or leasing more vessels.

All,
Fish is good for you, be it ikan bilis or China Fish or Pac Andes... You can't ignore fish as part of our diet, in fact you need the DHA, calcium and omega from it, if you are not smart enough to eat fish then you wont have heard of DHA unless you drink infant milk formula....then there is China Dairy so Fish and Milk is what our mum and every mum will prescribe to you or thier kid, so cant loose....I say buy...haha where is my glass of milk and my fish and chip fried in Golden Agri Palm Oil.

What?s on the table
China Fishery Group (S$2.31) ? Initiating Coverage - Prize catch
Trawling operations form the core of its business, accounting for 65% of 1Q07 revenue. All supertrawlers are linked to vessel-operating agreements (VOA) and are highly profitable with net margins of above 30%. Long-term contracts also provide relatively secure earnings streams and visibility with the earliest expiry for the first three VOAs in 2024. Management is on the lookout for more VOAs, and has been aggressively expanding its fleet of purse seine fishing vessels and fishmeal operations through acquisitions. We believe acquisitions represent the most efficient way for it to leverage management?s extensive experience in industrial fishing and expand operations.
Net profit is expected to jump 122% yoy to US$106.5m in 2007, on full-year contributions from the company?s Peruvian fishmeal operations. Given its strong operating record, 20% share of fishing quotas in Russian waters and significant market position in the Peruvian fishmeal industry, we believe CFG should not be trading at discounts to its global peers, most of which are concentrated in single lines of business. Our target price of S$3.10 values the company in line with the industry average of 13x CY08 P/E, offering potential upside of 34%. Initiate with Outperform.
