HSBC Research said in a report that SINOPEC CORP (00386.HK) recorded a 27% YoY increase in net profit in 1QYY, beating the brokers expectations, mainly supported by strong refining margins. However, the broker expects profitability to weaken in 2QYY as higher crude oil procurement and logistics costs start to surface, while the temporary price cap on refined oil products continues to limit the companys ability to pass on costs downstream. For the chemicals segment, the broker expects QoQ losses to widen, affected by lower operating rates, limited inventory gains and persistent difficulties in passing on costs amid weak downstream demand. HSBC Research raised its earnings forecasts for SINOPEC CORP for 2026 to 2028 by 18%, 11% and 9%, respectively. It maintained a Hold rating and a TP of HKD4.4 on SINOPEC CORP H shares, and set a TP of RMB5.5 for SINOPEC (600028.SH) A shares, with the rating also at Hold.
