We aim\n to further strengthen our focus on the core assets by disposing off the\n remaining interest in the Barranquilla port and continue to increase\n cost and operational efficiencies to maximize production.\"\n\n\nFinancial and Operating Summary\n\n\nA summary of the financial and operating results for the first quarter\n of 2014 is as follows:\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n(000's except per share and operating data)\n\n\nFirst Quarter\n\n\n\n\n2014\n\n\n2013\n\n\n\n\nOperational\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nTonnes of coal produced(1)\n\n\n \n\n\n274,421\n\n\n \n\n\n223,346\n\n\n\n\nAverage stripping ratio - operations\n\n\n \n\n\n9.09:1\n\n\n \n\n\n10.28:1\n\n\n\n\nTonnes of coal sold\n\n\n \n\n\n371,716\n\n\n \n\n\n220,751\n\n\n\n\nAverage realized thermal coal price per tonne sold (2)\n\n\n$\n\n\n95.67\n\n\n$\n\n\n99.10\n\n\n\n\nOperating margin per tonne sold (2)\n\n\n$\n\n\n11.51\n\n\n$\n\n\n(4.06)\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nFinancial\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nRevenues\n\n\n$\n\n\n35,671\n\n\n$\n\n\n21,901\n\n\n\n\nAdjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation\nand Amortization (\"EBITDA\") (2)\n\n\n \n\n\n3,087\n\n\n \n\n\n(2,503)\n\n\n\n\nEarnings (loss) from operations\n\n\n \n\n\n1,161\n\n\n \n\n\n(4,887)\n\n\n\n\nNet loss attributed to shareholders\n\n\n \n\n\n...
