WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Environmental and industrial services provider Clean Harbors, Inc. (CLH) reported higher profit in the second quarter backed by revenue growth. Revenue and profit beat analysts' view.
Net income was $148.2 million, or $2.71 per share in the second quarter, higher than $67.1 million, or $1.22 per share last year.
Excluding one-time items, earnings were $133.1 million, or $2.44 per share.
