Should the company meet that guidance, it will represent a major increase over last year's financial results. 17% jump in revenues, a 28% rise in EBITDA and a 45% rise in PBT. That's an unusual result for a company heavily involved in the mining services sector – with many others seeing falling revenues and margins over the past few years and likely to continue into next year. Monadelphous Group Limited ( ASX: MND ) is expected to post lower earnings in FY16, after reporting a 38% fall in first-half net profit on the back of a 30% fall in revenues. The company is widely regarded as one of the best in the mining services sector, but still expects lower earnings this year. Mining capital expenditure is still falling and has yet to hit bottom – although that is expected in 2017. That could see other mining services companies report disappointing results this financial year, but investors might want to pay close attention to their outlook statements.
