New Hope Group announced its financial results for the first half of 2013 on August 30. The company realised an operating income of CNY30.91 billion (USD$5.05 billion), representing a drop of 13.82% on-year; while net income fell to CNY849 million (USD$138.74 million), plunging by 14.86% on-year.

The company blamed the H7N9 outbreak for the losses. Sales of its ducklings, chicks, and broilers dropped by 0.14% to 206.51 million birds in the first half of 2013, as poultry consumption was decimated by the H7N9 avian influenza. Its feed and slaughtering businesses were also affected.
