The profit decline was due to higher operations and maintenance costs, as well as higher booked receivable provisions on increased average aging. This is despite higher operating revenue that partially offset the increase in operating costs, driven by growing demand for electric power.
Furthermore, higher other income completely offset increased general and administrative expenses as well as higher financing costs during the current period.
