Oil Prices Stabilize, Petrolimex Profits Surge Ninefold Year-on-Year

Petrolimex (HOSE: PLX), Vietnam’s leading petroleum conglomerate, has released its Q3/2025 consolidated financial report, showcasing a robust recovery compared to the same period last year. This significant turnaround is primarily attributed to the more stable global oil price trends observed during Q3/2025.

Petrolimex’s Q3/2025 Business Targets

Specifically, net revenue for the period reached over 83.6 trillion VND, a 30% increase compared to the same period last year. After deducting the cost of goods sold, gross profit reached nearly 4.5 trillion VND, up 31%.

Financial revenue for the period rose by 8% to 537 billion VND, offsetting a 65% surge in financial expenses to 383 billion VND. Selling expenses and administrative expenses increased by 11% and 20%, respectively. Ultimately, the company reported a net profit of 611 billion VND, 9.3 times higher than the same period last year.

In its explanatory statement, Petrolimex attributed the significant increase in Q3 profits to its core petroleum business turning a profit, whereas it had incurred losses in the same period last year. This improvement was due to relatively stable oil prices during the period, which decreased slightly from $68 per barrel to $62-$65 per barrel, compared to a sharp decline from $83 per barrel to $66-$68 per barrel in the same period last year.

Additionally, operations at subsidiary companies remained stable, with several sectors showing strong growth compared to the same period last year, including aviation fuel, lubricants, asphalt, and warehousing services.

However, due to a steep decline in Q1, Petrolimex’s year-to-date results still showed a 10% decrease in net profit to over 2.1 trillion VND, despite a 7% increase in revenue to 228 trillion VND. Nevertheless, the company has nearly achieved its annual targets, completing 92% of its revenue goal and 88% of its post-tax profit plan approved by the 2025 Annual General Meeting.
