SCG announces Q2/2022 and H1/2022 operating results

The company’s unreviewed operating results for Q2/2022 registered revenue from sales of VND101.7 trillion (US$4.4 billion), a flat q-o-q and an increase 14 percent y-o-y mainly due to higher sales across all businesses from higher product prices in-line with market prices. Profit for the period is VND6.6 trillion (US$289 million), a decrease of 42 percent y-o-y from rising feedstock costs in the chemicals business following global oil prices as well as lower equity information at the chemicals business. Profit for the period registered an increase of 12 percent q-o-q due to dividend income from investment businesses.

Innovative product and service developments are in full gear, especially eco-friendly items with SCG Green Choice labels and innovations to meet consumers’ demands for safety and convenience, catering to the tourism and service sector’s recovery as borders fully open. Moreover, strategic investments are being prioritized, resulting in the delay of new projects that are non-urgent while still going through with quick-return projects and ones that are aligned with the company’s long-term growth plans.
