The Vietnam second largest petrol retailer said that the preliminary results were positive in spite of the complicated situation of the COVID-19 pandemic as well as the domestic and foreign petroleum markets having experienced many fluctuations.

During the quarter, the war between Russia and Ukraine, along with sanctions, caused a shortage of oil supply, leading to an increase in oil prices. In addition, the world oil price continuously increased while there was a shortage of goods due to the decrease in operating capacity of the NSRP refinerry and the source of imported goods only came at the end of February, leading to limited sales, market discount dropped to a very low level, affecting the efficiency of PV OIL’s retail station.

PV OIL recorded VND 57,836 billion in revenue, up 15.6% compared to the performance in 2020; profit after tax reached VND 773 billion, significantly improving the loss of VND 166 billion last year. Thus, PV OIL exceeded the revenue target by 4% and the profit target by 132%.

According to the annual report for 2021, PV OIL sets a revenue target of VND 45,000 billion and a profit after tax of VND 400 billion, both significantly down compared to last year’s results.
