Gross revenues from port operations for the first nine months of 2017 increased 10% to $918.3 million from the $835 million reported in the same period in 2016, ICTSI said in a press statement. The growth was mainly due to volume growth, tariff rate adjustments at certain terminals, new contracts with shipping lines and services, and the contribution of the company's new terminals in Matadi, Congo, and in Melbourne, Australia. Excluding the two new terminals, consolidated gross revenues would have increased by only 6%.
