Algoma Central Forecasts 37% Jump in Third-Quarter Profit
A 37% surge in third-quarter net earnings is on the horizon for Algoma Central as the Canadian shipping firm capitalizes on rising freight rates and a broader dry-bulk fleet. The company anticipates a bottom line of 54 million Canadian dollars, eclipsing the 39 million reported during the same period last year.
Even when accounting for a 9 million Canadian dollar one-time gain from the divestment of two aging vessels, the underlying earnings are expected to rise by roughly 15%. Furthermore, the company anticipates its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization to reach 95 million Canadian dollars, a 5 million increase over the previous year.
