CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - July 31, 2008
Pittsburgh-based Consol says it earned 101 million dollars, or
54 cents per share, in the quarter. Consol earned 153.1 million
dollars, 83 cents per share, in second-quarter 2007. Last year's
second quarter included 59 million dollars in profit from asset
sales.
Analysts polled by Thomson Financial expected earnings of 80
cents per share in the most recent quarter.
The company says lower productivity and higher costs pushed up
operating costs.
Consol operates in Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Virginia, Utah,
Kentucky and Ohio.
