(OTC PINK: GTMAY) (BMV: TMM A) a Mexican maritime transportation and logistics Company, reported today its financial results for the second quarter and first half of 2016.
José F. Serrano, chairman and chief executive officer of Grupo TMM, said, "The drop in oil prices generated an unprecedented reduction in the demand for oil services around the world, as well as in all offshore vessels in México."
The Company implemented a strategic plan aiming to offset the impact of the aforementioned events, the most relevant actions include:
Diversify sources of income and customers. The Company has made significant progress diversifying its customer''s base in the product tankers, harbor tug vessels and the shipyard segments, business lines that registered positive results. In addition in Ports and Terminal Division, Grupo TMM recently announced a strategic alliance with TransCanada and Sierra Oil & Gas to jointly develop storage and transportation infrastructure to serve the growing demand for refined products in the central region of Mexico.
Strategic reduction of Costs and SG&A expenses to partially offset the impact of afore mentioned events on the Company''s EBITDA.
Started operations with NAFIN (the supplier''s chain program) to reduce liquidity risk and reduce the effect of the new payment policies of the Company''s principal customers.
Significant progress in its capitalization process.
These actions will be gradual and will most likely have a positive impact in our results in the following quarters.
