resuming to standard capacity in the 4th, thus contributing 1.8 billion than
 the 3rd. An increase of 0.43 billion happened to SM because of the

With the restriction lifted, Filament fabric is much favored during A/W.
Also, recovering purchasing power and the Vietnamese plant situation were
also the positive factors making the revenue higher.
3.Impact of selling price variance�G
Quotations of PTA, ABS, PP and PC were affected because of the weak
downstream demand and competitors�� new production line. Other than that,
most of the petrochemical and plactic products performed better as a result

 billion, decreasing by 6.51 billion compared with the last quarter.

Production cost went up as a result of the increasing quotation of oil and

control�� policy. Thus, some of the products price and the processing
spread went down, affecting the quarterly revenue.

dividends of FPC, NYPC and NTC were recognized last quarter.

and the less demand for COVID prevention.
(2)FCNB�G+7.77 billion
Expansion of plant phenol and PIA had come to a completion, generating 9.31
 billion. However, electricity generator set decreased by 1.52 billion as
 the rising quotation of coal and the dual control policy.

Market demand recovered thanks to the control of COVID.
(4)FICC�GScheduled overhaul in 2021 resulted in a decrease of 0.32 billion.
