Report on review of interim condensed financial statements

To the shareholders of Saudi Kayan Petrochemical Company (Saudi Kayan) (A Saudi Joint Stock Company)

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed statement of financial position of Saudi Kayan Petrochemical Company (Saudi Kayan) (the "Company") as of 30 September 2023 and the related interim condensed statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income for the three- month and nine-month periods then ended and interim condensed statements of changes in equity and cash flows for the nine-month period ended 30 September 2023 and other explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of these interim condensed financial statements in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 - "Interim Financial Reporting" ("IAS 34"), as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on these interim condensed financial statements based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of interim financial information performed by the independent auditor of the entity", as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. A review of interim financial statements consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing, as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34, as endorsed in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

SAUDI KAYAN PETROCHEMICAL COMPANY (SAUDI KAYAN)

(A SAUDI JOINT STOCK COMPANY)

INTERIM CONDENSED STATEMENT OF CASH FLOWS (CONTINUED) FOR THE NINE-MONTH PERIOD ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2023

(EXPRESSED IN SAUDI RIYALS IN THOUSANDS, UNLESS OTHERWISE STATED)

  1. CORPORATE INFORMATION
    Saudi Kayan Petrochemical Company (Saudi Kayan) ("the Company'') is a Saudi Joint Stock Company registered under Commercial Registration No. 2055008450 issued in Al Jubail on 26 Jumada'I 1428 H (12 June 2007G). The registered address of the Company is P.O. Box 10302, Al Jubail Industrial City, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. 35% of the Company's shares are owned by Saudi Basic Industries Corporation ("SABIC") and the remaining held by the general public.
    The Company is engaged in production of polypropylene, propylene, acetone, polyethylene, ethoxylate, ethylene, ethylene glycol, bisphenol, ethanolamine, industrial fatty alcohol, polycarbonate and other petrochemical products under an industrial license No. (218) dated 14 Shawwal 1443H (corresponding to 16 May 2022G) and ending on 14 Shawwal 1446H (corresponding to 13 April 2025G) issued by the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources.
    The Company has 33.33% interest in Saudi Butanol Company (Sabuco), a Saudi Arabian Mixed Limited Liability Company. Sabuco's principal activities comprise of a Butanol plant in Jubail for the production of N­Butanol and lso-Butanol. All of the N-Butanol and lso-Butanol produced by Sabuco is sold to the parties to the joint arrangement (i.e. the Company and other shareholders of Sabuco). Based on these facts and circumstances, it was assessed that the Company has rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to Sabuco and has therefore been classified as a joint operation. The Company has accounted for its share of assets, liabilities, income and expenses based on its 33.33% shareholding interest.
    During 2023, the Company has conducted major inspections (turnarounds / shutdown plans) in certain plants.
    Starting the second half of 2022, there was a significant decline in the sales prices of the Company's products in the global markets which resulted in a significant decrease in revenue, margin and profitability for the three and nine-month periods ended 30 September 2023 and 2022. Management believes that such decrease in sales prices is short‐term and the sales prices are expected to improve in the foreseeable future. Also see Note 5.
    As at 30 September 2023, the Company's current liabilities exceeded its current assets by SR 1.03 billion primarily due to expected scheduled debt repayments of SR 3.1 billion over the next twelve months which include SR 1.5 billion due against a revolving credit facility. The master facility agreement for this revolving credit facility is valid until 16 November 2027. Based on the terms of the agreement, a cash settlement cannot be enforced by the lender except in the case of non-compliance with the underlying covenants, a situation that management considers to be an unlikely event given the nature of these covenants. Accordingly, management believes that the repayment date of amounts due under the revolving credit facility will continue to be rolled over until the expiry of the agreement, as was the case in the past. Furthermore, as at 30 September 2023, the Company has access to undrawn borrowing facilities amounting to SR 1.5 billion under the same revolving credit facility.
    These interim condensed financial statements have been approved on 8 Rabi Al Thani 1445H (corresponding to 23 October 2023G).
  2. BASIS OF PREPARATION AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

2.1 Statement of compliance
