results; Sell
We update our 2026E EBITDA estimate for SCC by +9% primarily to reflect 2Q26 Nikhil Bhandari

results, which came in ahead on (1) higher-than-expected petchem margin capture nikhil.bhandari@gs.com

amid volatile naphtha prices, and (2) stronger-than-expected cost reduction in the
John Tsang
cement segment. +65-6654-5454 | john.tsang@gs.com
We do not view these changes as material and there is no change to our investment
thesis or rating. Our 2027E EV/EBITDA-based 12m TP remains unchanged at Bt185.
What to do with the stock
We remain cautious on olefin (key product of SCC’s chemical business) chain spreads
recovery due to industry overcapacity amid China’s self-sufficiency drive. We
acknowledge the company’s strategic progress, including dual-feed LSP cracker in
Vietnam and ongoing capex to add further feedstock diversification towards ethane
(in 2027) eventually positioning them at the lower part of global ethylene cost curve.
However, valuation appears to have already priced in these positives alongside a
more favorable ethylene chain macro to continue with the stock trading at ~1SD
above mid-cycle EV/EBITDA valuations. Maintain Sell.
