MAJOR REASONS FOR ESTIMATED LOSS IN THE RESULTS FOR THE PERIOD

In 2022, the crude oil prices rose sharply and the market demand is sluggish. The increase of the average price of the petrochemical products did not match the increase of the average price of the crude oil and thus the products’ gross profit decreased. Affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and the Company’s production equipment accident, the Company’s crude oil processing volume dropped significantly as compared with that in the previous year. In addition, the Company’s investment income has dropped significantly, etc. The combination of the above reasons led to a significant decline in the Company’s operating results.
