Revenue for the three months ended March rose 73% to RMB 4.68 billion. Revenue from its core shipbuilding business increased by 43% to RMB 2.89 billion with 14 vessels being delivered during the quarter.
Executive chairman Ren Yuanlin said: “The improved sentiment on the shipbuilding market not only led to a pick-up in new shipbuilding orders, but also helped us find new buyers for several orders that were previously terminated.
“However, as the sustainability of the recovery is uncertain, we will remain cautiously optimistic, mindful of the market dynamics, give preference to good-quality orders and continue to build up the order book.”
