Sinopec Likely to Face Mixed Earnings Environment -- Market Talk

Dow Jones
昨天

0729 GMT - China Petroleum & Chemical, or Sinopec, is likely to face a mixed earnings environment in the near term, says DBS Group Research's Pei Hwa Ho in a note. The Middle East conflict has driven crude oil prices higher, which should provide some upside to the Chinese energy major's upstream segment, the analyst says. However, its downstream-heavy portfolio could see pressure on its refining and petrochemical margins. Elevated crude costs, structural demand softness in China and ongoing petrochemical oversupply are expected to constrain the company's profitability, she adds. She prefers upstream peers Cnooc and PetroChina for their better risk-reward profiles. The analyst cuts her 2026-2027 earnings estimates by 24%-26%. DBS is reviewing its rating and target price. The stock is down 3.2% at HK$4.53. (megan.cheah@wsj.com)
