The greatest growth comes from the amount of Gas stations they can acquire to channel the refined products from their own Refinery.
This is where the highest value addition per ton of crude processed is - this will fatten the margin as what we have seen in the recent quarter.

as my own rough calculation, for this qtr 8.3mil barrel almost reach their full refinery capacity, in future the Dated Brent price is crucial to company earning power, IMO as long as the price can sustained, on up trend, not big drop then company profitability as this qtr should able to maintain
More and more the sharing by you guys with their QR report is closing the gap. The refinery contribution is less of their earning factor. Reading thier Report for all the quarters Petron more interested of introducing new product ( branding and have larger market share ) , increase the time to market ( reduce stockpile at refinery) and now lately more petrol Station(have larger market share pie)..
The petrol retail business is a very profitable business, the 580 petrol stations & kiosk own by Petronm are very valuable business channels, that is why Shell separates the refinery business & the petrol retail business. Good one keep it private, whereas the other let it be public company.
very interesting, initially to buy this stock is due to their strong FCF and dividend driven, as aggressiveness of management, now I have to rate it as a growing company : )
Yes, it's the patience ...the less spotlight it has , the better it would be. There is so little analyst maybe due to low floating share in the market, so no research house might be interested. So it's retailers together with Petron management largely ..
PetDag the direct beneficial of high retail petrol price has climb to $25.4+ today. Given the price, PE ratio & management style, I will rather choose Petronm, although i have to admit that it is a boring counter but the value is rich.
if I understand correctly, retail petrol and diesel is under the automated . pricing mechanism so retail price goes up when the so called MOPS index goes up, allowing petrol stations to own a fixed profit per litre sold. so when retail price is on uptrend, revenue will definitely go up, but what about their margins? would it also increase?
Jay...if im not mistaken it's a fixed % not a fixed value. Volatility on Crude price enables Refiners to source - book crude supply contracts in batches at very secured pricing level.
i agree with you tkp2... just chill out guys.... go drink a coffee or tea and surf the net if free... or if discovered any news or research regards to petronm then share it here... cheers... happy investing...
@probability I think one month back someone actually study how ron95 price was calculated, it shows something like 32c per litre. so I'm just wondering if I remember or understand correctly
As I mentioned before, Petronm is not suitable for short term play, if you have decided to invest into this company then you must ready for this long boring ride. The value is rich but short term share price can be very unpredictable, however if u can hang on with it the rewards might be quite substantial.
Mean of Platts Singapore (MOPS). The cost is the already refined product . But who knows at what price the peril refineries buying the price . OIl is raw material that works base on prospect , its related to future or hedged. So crude oil still make sense and actual refinery cost is also subject to the raw material management. MOPS Index is only for Retail pricing . ... I believe increase in Ron price would still contribute to profit
