Yamada Green Resources Limited provided earnings guidance for the third quarter and nine months ended March 31, 2017. For the period, the company expects the Group to report a loss for the third quarter and nine-month ended 31 March 2017. The expected loss is mainly attributable to a decline in profit of cultivation business. This is as a result of typhoons and warmer weather which impacted the cultivation of shiitake mushroom, rising labour costs of production and slowdown in the economy in China. Additionally, there were higher selling and distribution expenses incurred in the sales of processed food products for the domestic market. This profit guidance is based on a preliminary review of the unaudited financial results of the Group.
