The company's operating revenues hit 1.74 billion yuan in the same period, up 137.46 percent from a year ago and accounting for 44.5 percent of Huarong's annual revenue target, it said.

Lai Xiaomin, president of the company, attributed Huarong's profit surge to the strong performance of its subsidiaries, as well as the company's effective risk management.
