PETRON POSTS P8.2 BILLION NET INCOME FOR FIRST HALF OF 2017
Petron Corporation, the Philippines’ leading oil refining and marketing company, ended the
first half of 2017 strong, hitting a consolidated net income of P8.2 billion, up 56% from the P5.3
billion posted over the same period last year, despite crude oil inventory losses and a 45-day
scheduled maintenance shutdown of its refinery as part of its 10-year inspection program.
The solid performance was driven by the company’s deliberate focus on more profitable
segments and improved refinery production yields, while sustaining sales volumes coming
from a record-breaking year in 2016.
“With our upgraded refining capabilities, we derived more value and produced more profitable
products. This is strongly complemented by our extensive expansion efforts in both our
logistics and retail businesses,” Petron President and CEO Ramon S. Ang said.
During the period, total sales volumes for both Malaysia and the Philippines reached 52.9
million barrels, slightly higher than the previous record of 52.6 million from 2016.
Petrochemical sales also surged 78% year-on-year.
Consolidated sales revenues increased by 28% to P207 billion in the first six months of the year
from P161.9 billion over the same period in 2016.
Operating income stood at P14.6 billion, a 27% improvement from the previous year’s P11.5
billion.
The company remains confident about its prospects for the year underpinned by the country’s
strong economic performance.

“With the country’s economy growing at a rapid pace, we are expanding our facilities not just
for the needs of today but also to ensure a reliable and continuous supply of quality fuels for
tomorrow. Our expansion projects mean more employment opportunities and economic
activity, which help in nation-building,” Mr. Ang continued.
Currently, Petron has a combined retail network of almost 2,900 service stations, more than a
fifth of which are in Malaysia. Since 2012, the Company has rebranded and built an extensive
retail network of nearly 600 stations in Malaysia. Petron has dozens of service stations in
various stages of development in both countries.
Recently, Petron’s Petron Blaze 100 Euro 6 was recognized as the best fuel in the Philippines by
leading global experts. Produced and formulated locally at Petron’s Bataan refinery, Blaze 100
guarantees better engine protection, better mileage, and better power. It is the first and only
Euro 6 fuel in the country that conforms to the world’s most advanced and environmental
standards.
