The company attributed the increase in profit to higher polypropylene sales prices by 36% and higher share of profit on investment in SK Advanced Co. Ltd. (an affiliated company in South Korea) by 187%.

 

This is despite the decrease in sales volumes by 13% due to a periodic scheduled maintenance in Q1 2021; higher propane and outsourced propylene prices by 22% and 11%, respectively; higher consumption of outsourced propylene by 126%; increase in general & administrative expenses by 65%; and increase in finance charges from borrowings to finance the company's equity investment in the project of Advanced Polyolefins Industry Co.

 

When compared to Q4 2020, the company’s net profit fell 5% in Q1 2021 due to lower polypropylene sales volumes from a periodic scheduled maintenance in Q1 2021, higher propane and outsourced propylene prices, and lower share of profit on investment in SK Advanced Co. Ltd.
