"Of course, this good operational performance growth will have a positive impact on RMKE's financial performance in the third quarter of 2024. The demand for coal, which increased in the second half of this year, has become a positive catalyst for RMKE, besides that coal sales prices are also stable and tend to increase with geopolitical conditions and the current economic condition is not stable," Vincent said in a statement to the media, Friday, October 18.
