The higher profit was driven by better selling prices for most of the company’s products, which pushed gross profit higher, despite an increase in the feedstock prices of butane, ethylene, ethanol and propane.

 

Sipchem also reported improved sales volume, an increase in its profit share from the joint venture and associates, alongside a decline in finance costs mainly due to reduction of loans.

 

During the same period of 2021, an impairment loss of SAR 260 million was recorded related to the cash generating unit of Polybutylene Terephthalate Plant (PBT) and Gulf Advanced Cable Insulation Co. (GACI) plants, compared the current nine-month period.

In Q3 2022, the petrochemical producer posted a 25% drop in net profit after Zakat and tax to SAR 774.4 million from SAR 1.029 billion in Q3 2021.

Feedstock prices of butane, ethylene, ethanol and propane increased, while the company reported a decline in its profit share from the joint venture and associates.

 

Net profit fell by 38.7% from SAR 1.263 billion in Q2 2022 on lower selling prices of the company’s products.

 

Total shareholders’ equity, after minority interest, rose to SAR 16.400 billion as of Sept. 30, 2022, from SAR 14.341 billion a year earlier.
