Higher-than-expected “other operational expenses,” which increased by 89 percent on an annual basis, were the cause of the lower bottom line. The company’s board of directors approved $31.4 million in April to conduct engineering, design, and technical research, including a front-end engineering design study for a polypropylene project.
