《盈警響號》中信資源(01205.HK)料中期盈轉虧
中信資源(01205.HK)公布,集團預期今年上半年將錄得虧損,對比去年同期為錄溢利3.62億元。預期虧損主要由於集團於今年首4個月的原油平均售價較去年同期大幅下降。
集團指,今年1月末爆發的新型冠狀病毒及之後相關防疫措施,包括全球部分地區實施人潮管制、停課及居家工作的安排,導致今年首4個月的燃油需求量大幅下降。燃油需求的下降導致原油需求減少,全球亦因原油生產過剩而缺乏足夠儲油空間。儲油空間不足、原油供過於求以及第一季度爆發的原油價格戰導致原油價格急劇下挫,而大宗商品價格亦於首4個月出現不尋常波動。
布倫特原油價格及普氏迪拜原油價格為集團銷售原油的主要參考基準價。截至4月底,布倫特原油價格下跌至每桶19.7美元,較年初每桶65.7美元下跌70%。普氏迪拜原油價格則由年初的每桶66.1美元下跌至4月底的每桶20.7美元,跌幅68.7%。
為應對2019冠狀病毒病爆發產生的負面影響,集團已採取多項成本管控措施,以降低疫情對集團財務表現的影響。近期原油價格有所回穩,5月中旬起布倫特原油價格及普氏迪拜原油價格均維持在每桶30美元以上,但原油價格的恢復程度及恢復至年初水平並維持穩定所需的時間仍不確定。原油業務為集團業績的主要動力,預期於期間內將錄得較大虧損。儘管如此,集團認為整體財務狀況依然穩健。
