Qantas has posted an interim net profit slide to A$445 million ($297.78 million), blaming the 3.9 percent drop on protests in Hong Kong, higher foreign exchange costs and slower global freight demand.
The coronavirus outbreak in the second half has added to Qantas’ woes and is expected to cut A$100 million to A$150 million ($66.92 Million to $100.38 million) off its bottom line.
