    STC said general and administrative costs, plus amortization and depreciation costs, rose by a combined USD65.57 million in the second quarter, while taxes and employee retirement payouts increased USD47.45 million.

    Meanwhile, quarterly revenue expanded by 4.3 percent to USD3.25 million. STC reported falling profits in two of the preceding three quarters, stalling an improvement in its bottom line.
