Higher raw material costs and operating expenses chomped into Jollibee Foods Corporation's earnings for the first half, the company said in a statement.

Net profit for the first semester dropped 15 percent to P1.125 billion from P1.324 billion in the same period last year. Operating income was also down by 9.5 percent at P1.55 billion.

Revenues though were slightly stronger for the period, a 12.4 percent increase of P20.827 billion from P18.525 billion in the first half of 2007 while operating expenses as a percent of revenues expanded by 0.50 percent due to higher energy and wage costs.

Our same store sales remained strong, both in the Philippines and abroad. While our profit was lower compared to last year due to rapidly increasing costs, we believe that eventually, our profit will also grow as JFC had done in previous years of high inflation rate and slowing economic growth, said Tony Tan Caktiong, JFC chairman and CEO.

System-wide sales -- a measure of sales to consumers both from company-owned and franchised stores grew 8 percent, with Philippine operations accounting for 7.9 percent and 9.5 percent for its foreign businesses.

Same store sales from our two biggest foreign businesses, China and the United States particularly Yonghe King in the PRC and Jollibee US continued to be quite robust. We have accelerated the expansion of the store network of these business units, with plans to open a significantly higher number of stores this year than in any previous year, Tan Caktiong added.

The fastfood chain operator has earmarked P4.4 billion this year for capital expenditures, primarily for the opening of new stores and renovation of its existing restaurants.

This year, it has opened a total of 72 stores -- 39 in the Philippines and 33 abroad.

JFC owns and operates Jollibee, Chowking, Greenwich, Red Ribbon, Delifrance and Manong Pepe's brands in the Philippines and abroad.

It also operates Chinese-restaurant chain Yonghe King which brings its total number of stores to 1,689.

NEW YORK - The Dow and S&P 500 fell on Tuesday as bank stocks slid on a broker warning about more losses at Citigroup and the Federal Reserve chairman said mortgage delinquencies and foreclosures were likely to rise.

But the Nasdaq ended little changed after Cisco Systems Inc's chief executive said he expects the economy's problems to be short-lived, easing concerns about the impact of slower growth on business spending.
The day got off to a rough start after Merrill Lynch & Co forecast a $15 billion loss at Citigroup Inc, sparking a 4.3 percent slide in its shares and pushing the S&P financial index down to a fourth straight day of losses.
"There's just uneasiness with the financials and the potential for the continuation of the credit problems," said Stephen Carl, principal and head of U.S. equity trading at the Williams Capital Group in New York.
The Dow Jones industrial average fell 45.10 points, or 0.37 percent, to 12,213.80. The Standard & Poor's 500 Index dropped 4.59 points, or 0.34 percent, to 1,326.75. But the Nasdaq Composite Index inched up 1.68 points, or 0.07 percent, to 2,260.28.
CNBC television reported that a deal to rescue ailing bond insurer Ambac Financial Group was near, pushing the company's shares up nearly 8 percent and helping the broader market cut losses during the session's last hour.
"The Ambac news started the recovery and Cisco comments pushed it further and then you got a bunch of short covering. You don't want to get caught short late in the day," said Joe Saluzzi, co-manager of trading at Themis Trading in Chatham, New Jersey.
At one time during the day, the S&P 500 index traded near its January 22 close of 1,310.
And after spending most of the day in the red following a reduced profit margin forecast from Intel Corp, the Nasdaq edged higher as reassuring comments from networking equipment maker Cisco eased worries about tech spending.
Even so, concerns about the financial sector's outlook dominated, causing shares of Citigroup, the largest U.S. bank when ranked by assets, to finish down 4.3 percent at $22.10 on the New York Stock Exchange.
Shares of Bank of America Corp, the No. 2 U.S. bank by assets, closed down 1 percent at $38.78, and shares of JPMorgan Chase & Co', the No. 3 U.S. bank, declined 1.6 percent to $39.19.
Other financial companies, including insurer American International Group Inc, fell 1.8 percent to $45.83. The S&P financial index, down nearly 1 percent, capped its longest string of losses since December.
But on the Nasdaq, shares of Apple Inc contributed the most to the index's slight uptick, finishing up 2.4 percent at $124.62. The company reiterated its 2008 sales target of 10 million iPhones, a goal that some analysts have questioned in the face of a weaker U.S. economy.
Cisco shares finished off 0.5 percent at $24.29 and Intel shares dipped 0.1 percent to $20. Earlier, Intel shares had fallen as low as $19.44.
In a speech in Florida, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke said more declines in house prices could be expected. The housing slump has had a damping effect on consumer confidence and spending, which is a strong element of economic growth.
Fed Vice Chairman Donald Kohn told a hearing of the Senate Banking Committee that U.S. banks should consider slashing dividends to ease the strain on balance sheets laden with bad debts.
Also hurting financials was Wachovia's reduction of its earnings estimates on four U.S. investment banks, including Bear Stearns Co Inc, saying the first quarter for investment banks would be one of the worst in several years.

PERTH - Australia could experience more severe droughts and they could become more frequent in the future because of climate change, a government-commissioned report said on Sunday.

Droughts could hit the country twice as often as now, cover an area twice as big and be more severe in key agricultural production areas, the Bureau of Meteorology and Australia's top science organization, the CSIRO, said in a joint report.

The study also found that temperatures currently defined as "exceptional" were likely to occur, on average, once in every two years in many key agricultural production areas within the next 20 to 30 years, while spells of low rainfall would almost double in frequency from current figures.

Australia, suffering its worst drought in 100 years, has seen its wheat exports tumble in the past two years.

The Pacific nation is normally the second-largest wheat exporter in the world, but the harvest has been decimated to just 13 million tonnes last year because of drought.

The report, commissioned by the left-leaning Labor Party government as part of a review of national drought policy, said about 50 percent of the rainfall decrease in south-western Australia since the 1950s was likely due to emissions of greenhouse gases.

It added current policies defining areas eligible for government drought assistance were out-of-date and more areas needed to be included for drought support.

"We've already seen farmers walking off the land and rural communities struggling to stay afloat in the face of widespread stress and depression," Minister for Agriculture, Fisheries and Forestry Tony Burke said in a statement.

"Yet this report suggests this rare event could occur much more often due to climate change. We need to act now to ensure we are better prepared for climate change in the future."

The Laguna Lake Development Authority on Wednesday dismantled illegal fish pens in Laguna de Bay in an effort to clean up one of the major food sources of Metro Manila residents.

LLDA officials said it has issued a moratorium on the issuance of permits for fishpens in the next five years.

LLDA chairman Edgardo Manda said the bamboo fish cages and houses of fishermen contribute to the pollution of the lake

Manda said fishermen may continue to fish in the lake and only the construction of fishpens is being prohibited. He said the agency will deploy lake patrols to monitor and guard against the construction of illegal fishpens for a cleaner, fresher Laguna de Bay.

Fisherman Aurelio Santiago said the dismantling of illegal fishpens would mean a bigger catch for individual fishermen like himself.

Reuters HANOI - Vietnam may lift its ban on rice exports in early July as planned as its contracted export volume so far makes up only about two thirds of the annual target, the country's agriculture minister was quoted on Tuesday as saying. "Rice export contract signing would be allowed right after June 30, 2008," the Ho Chi Minh City Communist Youth League-run Tuoi Tre newspaper quoted Agriculture Minister Cao Duc Phat as saying. Phat said Vietnam has so far secured contracted to export 2.4 million tons of rice, or nearly 70 percent of its 3.5 million-ton sales target for the whole of this year. Vietnam's fresh supply could help ease world rice prices which have tripled over the past year due to dwindling stocks and export curb by major exporters. But the lifting of the ban on schedule may cause logistic problems as several provincial authorities in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam's rice basket, have sought the removal earlier than the end-June deadline to ease growing inventories, traders said. In June, farmers in the Delta will start harvesting the summer-autumn crop, the second-highest yielding crop in Vietnam, which competes with Thailand and India in rice business. Traders said the quality of the winter-spring rice, Vietnam's best quality grain, that has been in stock since the harvest ended in early April, could fall if kept for too long while exporters also worry about repaying interests on bank loans used to buy the grain from domestic markets. The Vietnamese government has cut the annual export target for 2008 to between 3.5 million and 4 million tons to ensure food security and control double-digit inflation, after exporting 4.5 million tons last year. In March, the government banned the signing of new export contracts through June to ensure sufficient supplies at home and control double-digit inflation that hit an annual 21.42 percent in April following a surge in food prices. Despite the ban, Vietnamese exporters have been loading rice under contracts for the Philippines, Cuba and Iraq signed prior to the restriction. The Vietnam Food Association said Vietnam has exported 272,000 tons of rice during the first half of May, bringing the country's total rice shipment to 1.65 million tons since the start of this year. It gave no comparative figures.

IBF/IBO flyweight champion Nonito "The Filipino Flash" Donaire will be waiting for the winner of the IBF eliminator between Moruti "Baby Face and Hussein Hussein which was slated on July 5 in South Africa.

IBF Championship Committee Chairman Lindsey Tucker said the winner of that fight "will be the mandatory for Donaire."
This is in reaction to Top Rank promoter Bob Arums statement that he planned to match Donaire in a mandatory title defense despite plans for the Filipino to move up to super flyweight. Top Rank plans to pit Donaire against WBC No. 1 Jorge Arce.
Tucker said that negotiations for the Donaires mandatory title defense would start on July 7 and the two sides will be given 30 days to reach an agreement.
Hussein was earlier scheduled to fight the Filipino champion for the title last April. However, the bout was aborted due to organizational problems. The Australian-based boxer will get his chance for a crack on Donaire should he beat Mithalane.
Donaire earlier said that there were plans to include him on the undercard of the Miguel Cotto-Antonio Margarito WBA welterweight title bout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on July 26.
A report posted on Philboxing.com said that if the July fight would not push through, Donaire may fight on the undercard of the Joshua Clottey вЂ“ Zab Judah match in the Palms Casino on August 2.

Agence France-Presse
BEIRUT - Lebanon was steeped in tension on Saturday after Hezbollah seized control of west Beirut in three days of deadly fighting with pro-government forces, triggering fears of all-out civil war.
At least 16 people were killed in the violence that erupted on Wednesday and quickly escalated after the head of the opposition Shiite Hezbollah movement called a government crackdown on his powerful group a declaration of war.
The unrest led to urgent international appeals for calm as Arab foreign ministers prepared to hold an emergency meeting on the crisis on Sunday amid regional Sunni Muslim fears about Shiite Iran's influence in Lebanon.
The United States said Hezbollah's actions proved it was a threat to the entire region.
"Hezbollah's relationship with Iran and Syria, as well as its history of international terrorism and provision of lethal support and training to Iraqi-based extremist groups, demonstrates the threat it poses to international peace and security," White House spokesman Gordon Johndroe said on Friday.
Analysts said there were fears the violence could spread beyond Lebanon's borders.
"Hezbollah had said before it would never point its arms against its own country, but it has crossed this line," said Nadim Shehadi, Lebanon expert at the Chatham House think tank in London.
"Hezbollah has crossed a huge red line, and it means Iran has crossed this line. The political consequences are immense -- it could escalate regionally."
Antoine Basbous of the Paris-based Observatory of the Arab Countries predicted more violence.
"There will be operations, attacks. It will not totally control the new territory because it is not welcome" there, Basbous said.
Hezbollah gunmen celebrated on Friday by firing into the air and flashing victory signs as they drove in convoys around west Beirut after routing Sunni militants loyal to Prime Minister Fuad Siniora's Western-backed government.
The army and police moved into areas now in the hands of Iranian- and Syrian-backed opposition forces which have been locked in an 18-month power struggle with the ruling coalition.
But five people were killed in flare-ups elsewhere across the country on Friday, including a man and his wife in the southern port of Sidon -- a stronghold of ruling majority leader Saad Hariri.
Foreigners scrambled to leave the region via Syria and governments prepared evacuation plans from Lebanon as the country's sole civilian airport and Beirut port were shut and key highways blockaded.
The fighting brought back harrowing memories of the 1975-1990 civil war as Hezbollah and its foes both appeared unwilling to give any ground.
Hezbollah insisted that the roadblocks that have paralyzed transport across much of the nation would remain until the government meets its demands.
But Youth and Sports Minister Ahmed Fatfat said the government would not go back on its decision to probe Hezbollah's private communications network -- the trigger for the latest unrest.
Beirut residents cowered inside their homes on Friday after a night rattled by gunfire and exploding rocket-propelled grenades, while most shops remained shuttered.
Christian opposition leader Michel Aoun, a key ally of Hezbollah chief Hassan Nasrallah, hailed Friday's events as a "victory for Lebanon."
But another Christian leader, Samir Geagea, accused Hezbollah of launching "an armed coup."
Hezbollah was the only faction allowed to keep its weapons after the civil war to fight Israeli forces occupying the south.
Lebanon's continuing political feud is widely seen as an extension of the confrontation pitting the United States and its Arab allies and Israel against Syria and Iran.
