PTAH PTA Holdings Inc (CE)

PTA Holdings, Inc. (OTC Pink Sheets:PTAH), a multi-faceted transportation group providing a broad array of traditional transportation and management services, announced today that its Iowa Operations had positive earnings results during June seeing increases in revenues over prior periods.     

Tim Norton, VP and Director of PTA Holdings Inc. stated, "2nd quarter results for the company when released are headed in the right direction after a slower than expected start in the 2nd Quarter 2013. June 2013 revenues on the other hand signaled a strengthening with significant gains that will provide overall positives for the 2nd quarter and year to date. We continue to believe that our earlier forecasts will be in line with industry statistics and growth predictions related to the outlook for the transportation industry in 2013. Freight tonnage is expected to increase by a total of 21% over the next decade and we expect our revenues to grow with the industry standards.  The upturn in the economy has presented our company with the opportunity to expand our markets throughout 2013 and continue growth into the future."

He further stated, "The release of our financial performance results will be another indication that the strategy for growth at PTA Holdings is sound and it's good to see others in our industry of that same mindset as regards the potential afforded transportation providers."
