I would have thought that increased ROM, record production,the first two months produced the equivalent to 90% of previous quarters tonnage railed, on track for record sales,an 18% increase on monthly ROM and on track to exceed 300,000t for the quarter indicates to me that sales are up, revenues are up and therefore that will reflect in the bottom line.

I would not be surprised if CCC announces a nett profit for the coming quarter.

All in all a very POSITIVE ANNOUNCEMENT and it indicates that everything is going extremely well.
