Yancoal Australia has reported a 2018 interim net profit of $361m. The result was boosted by the contribution of Rio Tinto’s thermal coal mines in New South Wales and a sharp rise in the price of thermal coal since the deal was struck. About $130m of the interim profit will be returned to shareholders via dividend payments, which equates to about $0.003 per share.
