In Q4, Petrolimex achieved nearly 68.7 trillion VND in revenue, down 12% compared to the same period last year. Gross profit, after deducting costs, reached nearly 4 trillion VND, a decrease of 7%.
Financial revenue in the period recorded a sharp decline (reaching 606 billion VND, down 34%). All cost areas accounted for a high proportion, especially selling expenses recorded nearly 3.3 trillion VND, an increase of 2%. Business management expenses also increased by 24%, reaching 299 billion VND.
Meanwhile, other profits decreased significantly by 82%, to 51 billion VND, as there was almost no income from the liquidation of fixed assets (decreasing nearly 227 billion VND).
In summary, Petrolimex’s net profit in Q4 was 641 billion VND, a decrease of 45% compared to the same period last year.
However, Petrolimex’s accumulated results increased significantly thanks to the strong performance in the first two quarters and the huge profit from the divestment of PGB recorded in Q3. In 2023, Petrolimex achieved 274 trillion VND in revenue, down 10% compared to the same period last year; net profit was 2.8 trillion VND, an increase of 94%. Compared to the targets approved at the 2023 General Shareholders’ Meeting, the company exceeded 44% of the revenue target and nearly 22% of the pre-tax profit target for the whole year.
