EGCO reported a net profit in 3Q24 of THB 2,463 million, representing an increase of 4% compared to the same period last year. This was mainly from an increase in operating profit together with a recognized unrealized net gain from the change in the fair value of financial instruments.

Meanwhile, total revenue for the period stood at THB 12,354 million, showing a decrease of 11% compared to the same period last year.

The operating profit of EGCO Group for the 3-month period was THB 3,604 million, an increase of 8% compared to 3Q23, attributed to higher electricity sales volumes from Quezon, NT1PC and KLU, as well as increased revenue recognition from project sales by Apex. Additionally, there was an increase due to the acquisition of a 50% ownership interest in Compass Portfolio on January 9, 2024. However, Paju ES had lower electricity revenue, XPCL had lower electricity sales volumes and Solarco no longer received revenue from the subsidy of adders.
