Expanding assets and a widening interest spread helped boost earnings, the bank said in a statement to the Shanghai Stock Exchange, citing an unaudited calculation. Net profit in the same period last year was 3.9 billion yuan (US$571 million), or 0.90 yuan a share, the bank said. Copyright © 2001-2009 Shanghai Daily Publishing House |
