DIC Investment and Trading Joint Stock Company (DIC–INTRACO) explained the fluctuation in the consolidated profit and loss in Quarter 4.2012 compared to the same period of 2011 as follows:

	Jan - Dec 2012	Jan - Dec 2011	Difference	Ratio
Net revenue	1,194,938	1,018,386	176,552	17.34%
Profit after tax	5,889	16,153	(10,264)	(63.54%)

DIC’s consolidated net revenue in Quarter 4.2012 rose by 17.34% compared to the first half of 2011. However, because of economic difficulties, expenses and cost of goods sold also increased higher than the growth of revenue. That was the main reason making the consolidated profit in whole 2012 lower than the profit in the same period of 2011.
