• Major acquisition aligned with strategy in current medium-term plan: On

May 14, ENEOS announced it would acquire (i) a 50% stake in the SGP

refinery (Singapore Refining Company; remaining 50% held by PetroChina)

owned by US Chevron, and (ii) fuel oil sales facilities (storage terminals and

service stations) in Singapore, Australia, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam,

and Indonesia, for $2,170 million (¥336.0 billion). Management looks for

FY2030 operating profit of $250 million (approx. ¥39.0 billion) and EBITDA

of $380 million (approx. ¥59.0 billion). On a simple calculation basis, EV/

EBITDA would be 5.7x. Management expects to close the deal in 1H 2027. As

a result of this acquisition, the overseas sales ratio is expected to rise from 16%
