RTRS: ICE profit dips 1 percent on lower OTC natural gas volumes
Nov 5 (Reuters) - IntercontinentalExchange Inc reported a 1 percent decrease in quarterly profit on Monday, due in part to lower trading volumes in over-the-counter North American natural gas and power contracts, and to a decline in credit default swap transactions.
Net income attributable to the Atlanta-based commodities exchange was $131.1 million, or $1.79 a share, in the third quarter, down from $132.6 million, or $1.80 a diluted share, a year earlier.
