Siam Cement (SCC TB) - Timeline For LSP Project To Resume Operations R...
We expect 2Q25 core profit to rise qoq, driven by improvements in the cement, petrochemical and packaging businesses, supported by higher cement prices, lower production costs and a recovery in petrochemical spreads. The LSP project restart remains unscheduled, and we are closely monitoring the supply situation. While trade tensions could reduce supply and support spreads, they may also weigh on demand. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt160.00.

Siam Cement (SCC TB) - 1Q25 Net Profit Expected To Increase qoq
We expect SCC to report a 1Q25 net profit of Bt652m. The CBM and packaging businesses have shown a strong recovery, supported by seasonal demand growth. For 2Q25, we anticipate a significant qoq rise in net profit, driven by improved performances in the CBM and petrochemical businesses. However, we believe the improvement in petrochemical spreads is temporary. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt160.00.

Siam Cement (SCC TB) - Net Loss Reported In 4Q24
SCC recorded a net loss in 4Q24 of Bt512m due to underperformance in its core businesses, including CBM, petrochemicals and packaging. Although SCC has benefited from a higher dividend income and stock gains, these were insufficient to counterbalance the losses from its core operations. However, the petrochemical sector continues to face challenges, particularly in 1H25, leading to a persistently negative outlook for this segment. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt160.00.

Siam Cement (SCC TB) - Net Loss Expected In 4Q24
We expect SCC to report a net loss of Bt930m in 4Q24, with earnings declining across all business segments. The petrochemical division will be particularly affected, continuing its downturn due to weak olefins spreads. We have lowered our net profit forecasts for 2024-25 to reflect reduced profitability across all business segments, especially with the ongoing supply challenges that are expected to pressure the petrochemical business over the next 2-3 years. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt1...

Siam Cement (SCC TB) - 3Q24: Net Profit Down Both qoq And yoy
SCC reported a qoq and yoy drop in net profit for 3Q24 due to reduced sales and margins across all sectors, compounded by the appreciated Thai baht. The 3Q24 net profit included substantial extra gains, and without these, the loss would have been greater than our and consensus estimates. We still expect a rebound in net profit in 4Q24 due to the low base effect from 3Q24. We are still cautious on the petrochemical business. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt220.00.

Siam Cement (SCC TB) - Net Loss Expected In 3Q24
We expect SCC to report a net loss of Bt286m, with weaker performances across all business segments and a rise in stock losses. While we expect net profit to rebound in 4Q24, the petrochemical sector remains a concern due to a slower-than-expected demand recovery and a significant increase in new supply. These supply challenges are likely to keep exerting pressure on the petrochemical business over the next 2-3 years, prompting us to remain cautious. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt250.00.

SCC has revised its business strategy to prioritise the production of green products and reduce production costs by incorporating alternative fuels and renewable energy into its processes. SCC is also adjusting its feedstock plans for the petrochemical business to enhance flexibility. Additionally, SCC has reduced its capex to align with the increasingly challenging business outlook. We have a negative outlook on the petrochemical business. Maintain HOLD. Target price: Bt276.00.
