Fernando E. Ganoza, CEO, commented, “The Company had another record operating quarter with competitive production cost which didn’t translate to the quarterly financials. As we recognize revenue once the concentrate is shipped, the financials were negatively impacted by a delay of the second concentrate shipment scheduled for this quarter due to a countrywide transportation strike in Colombia. The negative effect on this quarter will be offset by recording the revenue of the delayed shipment in the third quarter.” Mr. Ganoza added, “We are looking forward to a strong second half of the year both operationally and financially while we remain on target to meet our annual consolidated production guidance.”
