Operational and financial highlights (Q2 & 1H 2026)
Achieved high refinery utilization rates (107% in Q2'26) despite planned maintenance, with strong domestic sales focus.
Gross refining margin (GRM) rose to $21.2/bbl in Q2'26, driven by Middle East tensions and tight global supply.

Maintained investment grade credit ratings (Moody's Baa3, S&P BBB-, Fitch A+ (Tha)), supported by deleveraging and asset monetization.
Free cash flow was negative in 1H'26 due to high capex and working capital needs, but liquidity remains robust.
Strategic investments and project updates
Clean Fuel Project (CFP) progressing ahead of schedule, targeting refinery capacity increase to 400 kbd and Nelson Index to 12.0 by 2028.
Asset monetization through lease & leaseback of infrastructure assets improved leverage, with net-debt-to-EBITDA ratio reduced to 3.7x.
Strategic investment plan allocates $7.1 billion in capex through 2029, prioritizing CFP completion, reliability, and new growth platforms.
Transitioned strategy from "3V" (Value Maximization, Enhancement, Diversification) to "2S1P" (Strengthening Core, Sustaining Future, Powering Platform) for resilience and sustainability.
