Sahara International Petrochemical Co. (Sipchem) reported a net profit after Zakat and tax of SAR 175.9 million in 2020, down 41% compared to a net profit of SAR 299.5 million a year earlier.

 

The profit drop was attributed to lower sales revenue and selling prices for most of Sipchem’s products, along with lower production in the polypropylene plant, due to unplanned shutdown and turnaround maintenance.

 

Sipchem also recorded an impairment loss of SAR 280 million in 2020 from cash generating units, namely International Diol Company (IDC) (SAR 100 million) and EVA Film Plant, owned by Saudi Specialized Products Company (SAR 180 million).
