| 3. | MAJOR REASONS FOR ESTIMATED LOSS IN THE RESULTS FOR THE PERIOD | |
| --- | --- |
In 2022, the crude oil prices rose sharply and the market demand is sluggish. The increase of the average price of the petrochemical products did not match the increase of the average price of the crude oil and thus the products’ gross profit decreased. Affected by the Covid-19 pandemic and the Company’s production equipment accident, the Company’s crude oil processing volume dropped significantly as compared with that in the previous year. In addition, the Company’s investment income has dropped significantly, etc. The combination of the above reasons led to a significant decline in the Company’s operating results.
| 4. | RISK WARNING |
|---|
The Company does not have any significant uncertainties that will affect the accuracy of the contents of this estimated results.

| 5. | OTHER INFORMATION |
|---|
The estimated figures above are based on preliminary assessment only. Specific and accurate financial figures will be disclosed in the 2022 annual report to be officially published by the Company. Investors are advised to pay attention to the investment risk.
