ABIX via COMTEX) -- Australian pay television group, Austar, will issue a statement on its 2001 half-year result. The information, due to be released on 23 August, is in response to a query from the Australian Stock Exchange. In mid-August the company revealed that losses for the six months to the 30 June had increased to $A196.1 million. Austar shares fell 30 per cent to close at $A0.29 on 22 August, amid concerns about its ability to refinance its loans and problems reported by its US parent, UnitedGlobalCom.
