Vancouver, BC – Teck Resources Limited (TSX: TCK.A and TCK.B, NYSE: TCK) (“Teck”) reported annual adjusted profit attributable to shareholders of $1.0 billion, or $1.74 per share, compared with $1.8 billion or $3.03 per share in 2012. Fourth quarter adjusted profit attributable to shareholders was $227 million, or $0.40 per share, compared with $409 million, or $0.70 per share, in the fourth quarter of 2012.
“We were pleased with our operating performance in 2013,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO. “We achieved record annual steelmaking coal sales, had record throughput at three of our mines, implemented approximately $360 million in savings from our cost reduction program and, with our partners, announced that we are proceeding with the construction of the Fort Hills oil sands project. However, prices for all of our key products were down compared to last year, resulting in lower profits and cash flows than in 2012.”
