The Jordan Press Foundation (JPF) has made full advantage of its leading position in the market and the outstanding economic growth witnessed by the Kingdom in recent years.
Notwithstanding the one-time equity-related investment losses of 2006 caused by the extraordinary movement in the Amman Stock Exchange and the economy as a whole, JPF was successful in greatly increasing its normalized earnings during the first half of 2007. Total revenues for the aforementioned period came in at JD 13.4 million while the net income registered JD 5.5 million. When excluding the effects of the mentioned losses (and subsequent gains), JPF would reveal a growth of 26.3% when comparing the figures of the first half of 2007 with those of 2006.
