Clarification of News Report

We refer to your letter dated January 31, 2025 requesting JG Summit Holdings, Inc. ("JGS") to clarify and/or confirm a news article entitled “Gokongweis exit loss-making petrochemical business” posted in Inquirer.net on January 31, 2025.

The news article reported in part that:

“In what is seen as the ‘best decision’ under challenging market conditions, conglomerate JG Summit Holdings Inc. has decided to shut down its petrochemicals unit, which has been dragging down the group’s profitability.

The Gokongwei-led company said in a statement on Thursday that JG Summit Olefins Corp. (JGSOC) was now ‘on an indefinite commercial shutdown,’ although it would continue to sell from its existing product inventory.

. . . .

JG Summit clarified, however, that trading of liquefied petroleum gas under Peak Fuel Corp. ‘will remain unaffected by the shutdown.’

. . . .

In the first nine months of 2024, JGSOC’s net loss widened by 30 percent to P11.4 billion as industrywide polymer spreads “dropped to historic lows.”

JG Summit, in hopes of reviving its subsidiary, earlier planned to inject up to P17.1 billion in fresh capital into JGSOC via share subscription.

. . . .”

JG Summit Holdings, Inc. (“JGS”) confirms the information quoted above.

At this point, JG Summit Olefins Corporation (JGSOC) continues to evaluate various options to mitigate the adverse effects of challenging market conditions and to minimize impact to JGS operations and business. We do not expect this commercial shutdown to have a material impact on JGS operations, business and consolidated cash and debt levels.

JGS will make the appropriate decision in due course, and will make a full disclosure if and when warranted.
