In Q2/2025, the operating capital was efficiently managed, which decreased by 7,164 MB compared to Q1/2025. The net debt decreased by 8,365 MB compared to the end of Q1/2025. Cash at the end of Q2/2025 was 45,542 MB.
For its H1/2025 operating results, SCG recorded sales of 249,077 MB and a net profit of 18,436 MB. Without additional items in connection with the restructuring of companies, profit was 3,266 MB.
One of the most important operational highlights for the first half of 2025 are:
- Reduction of costs for competition with global manufacturers. For example, SCGC optimized the raw material costs and increased the value of by -products, which led to cost savings and added value of 912 MB. The company also improved plant operation to maximize efficiency, achieve additional cost savings of 616 MB and reduce the operating capital by 6,989 MB. SCG Cement and Green Solutions used environmentally friendly and alternative energy sources in production processes and lowered the costs by 1,100 MB. The SCG decor increased the use of clean energy, negotiated for lower raw material costs and efficiently managed inventory, which leads to total cost savings of over 146 MB per year. SCG Smart Living implemented robotics and clean energy in the production process and saves 105 MB at costs.
- Operating and business restructuring efforts. For example Pt Chandra Asri Pacific TBK. (Cap) in Indonesia and some SCGC operations in Europe and some companies under SCG Smart Living in Indonesia, the costs and expenses in the second quarter of the second quarter/2025 were over 15,170 MB.
- Expansion of the product portfolio to satisfy the demand in all market segments. For example, SCGC products with high value developed into additional products (HVA) to operate important sectors, including infrastructure, consumer packaging, automotive, medical and healthcare and energy solutions. The SCG Decor has expanded its product portfolio from decorative surface and bathroom to the import of complementary products such as tire adhesive and joint mortar, doors and windows as well as kitchen worktops. It also uses high-quality segments with HVA products such as glazed porcelain tiles and intelligent sanitary goods.
However, SCG considers the prospects for the second half of 2025 to be very challenging because the Thailand, Asean and the world of US tariffs, geopolitical conflicts and volatile energy prices are affected. Therefore, SCG accelerates the effort to improve its company competitiveness in order to cope with these challenges, including:
1.) Use of various production bases in “Asean” (regional optimization). This is an important strength and a competitive advantage for SCG. The strategy focuses on the production and export of Vietnam to use a cheap US importer of 20% and competition costs. This is combined with the fact that Vietnam is a domestic consumption basis with high growth potential. For example, SCGC plans to resume the operation in the Long Son Petrochemicals (LSP) facility in Vietnam at the end of August 2025. In the meantime, the project to improve the competitiveness of LSP is continued with the help of Ethane Feedstock as planned, whereby the completion is expected in 2027. SCG cement and green solutions expand its low carbon carbon base in southern Vietnam. With a maximum capacity of 8,000 tons per day, the facility will serve the domestic Vietnamese market and support exports to the USA, Canada, Australia and Oceania. The SCG decor increased the production capacity of glazed porcelain tiles in Vietnam to meet the growing market demand and the reduced production costs in order to meet the world-class player. SCGP continues to strengthen its integrated packaging business in Vietnam, which covers the entire value chain from the production of packaging to paper packaging, polymer packaging and food service packaging.
In addition, SCG is actively looking for opportunities in other top -class markets. Examples are: In Africa, SCG sales and retail expanded their market for cement clinkers. In Asia, the “3D printing solution” market has increased quickly, whereby the sale of 3D print mortar has strategically shifted, which enables the market entry in Japan, Saudi Arabia and Malaysia for faster and waste-free buildings. In Oceania, SCG Smart Living “Dach and Ceiling” products have expanded to the Australia and New Zealand products markets, by selecting products that are tailored to the specific needs and usage requirements of every market. SCG Cement and Green Solutions also expanded the market for SCG “Low Carbon Cement Gen 1 and Gen 2”, which was certified as part of the new Thai industrial standards 2594-2567 and an environmental product declaration (EPD) was granted in North America and the first Thai brand was achieved. It is preparing to launch “SCG Low Carbon Cement Gen 3” on the market and are currently carrying out pilot projects with more than 15 locations. In Europe, the SCG decor has expanded the “glazed porcelain tiles” market to the Czech Republic, and SCGP has optimized the “Foodservice Packaging Production” for the cost competitiveness.
2.) “lower costs” to compete with global manufacturers
- The use of robotics and AI: For example, SCG Cement and Green Solutions use robot systems to automate the packaging of cement bags and their shipping to the warehouse. In addition, the company uses an automated storage and calling system (AS/RS) to efficiently organize products for loading on transport vehicles. In cooperation with Strategic Partners, SCG is also the development of the first autonomous electric mining car in Thailand. SCG Smart Living has implemented automation systems in the production of roof tiles, Ridge caps and smartboard wall and ceiling panels, which leads to standardized product quality, reduced production waste and lower administrative costs. In addition, the company has started the introduction of AI technologies to improve efficiency in the design and development of new products. The SCG Decor instructs automated systems to move tiles and sanitary negotiations during the production process, including applied AI to support product design, simulate processes before actual production, carry out quality inspections and manage its warehouse. SCGC uses robotics to manage its facility, as with Nawaplastic Industries, the PVC pipes, attacks and finished PVC products, on a robot density ratio that is comparable to the global best-in-class level. Digital technology and AI are also used to shorten polymer development and further improve production efficiency.
- Reduce administrative costs By centralizing the production of redundant plant operation.
3.) Expand “Smart Value – HVA – Green Products” to penetrate high growth markets
- Smart Value Products (SVP) This corresponds to the needs of consumers in the current economic climate. Examples are: “Adamax Cement” in Vietnam, “5 -star cement” in Cambodia and “Bezt Cement” in Indonesia by SCG cement and green solutions. “SCG Ceramic Dach Tiles – Celica -curve” by SCG Smart Living and “Sosuco Tile and Bad” by SCG Decor.
- Products with high value creation (HVA) and service solutions. Examples are: “Chillox”, an energy -saving solution for cooling stores that maintain stable temperatures, reduce power consumption and keep cold during emergencies. This solution uses by-products from the polyolefins system to create new business opportunities. and “DRS” (Digital Reliability Service Solutions), the world's first fully integrated digital service solutions for industrial sectors, from SCGC; “High-strength concrete manloch covers for underground electrical conduction systems” using the ultra-high performance technology to improve durability and reduce accidents and noise caused by vehicles. And the first in Thailand, which is specially designed for corners, “enables the construction of smooth, straight and precisely angled edges by SCG cement and green solutions;” Onnex ArcBox “, an innovative fire brigade device for solar panels systems, the advanced technology from Great Britain and” SCG Smartboard Zuper -Wall Panels “, which are used by SCG Smart Living has been improved by SCG -Smart -Living for greater strength and flexibility. “Model Automatic Sanitary;
- Green products. Examples are the first in Thailand “Windsor” with low -carbon vinyl doors and windows of SCGC and “Decaar of SCG -Comfort” concrete paving tiles with an exclusive heating technology for superior heat reflection and quick heat frame by SCG smart living.
Thammasak came to the conclusion: “Although the trade war situation remains uncertain, SCG is confident that our clear strategy, our quick and agile adaptation and commitment of our teams in all business units enable us to maintain the financial strength and competitiveness of the organization. In addition, in cooperation with partners over the entire business ecosystems that work together on warm growth. Accelerator. Program 'and' Go together, 'Organizing the leadership forum under the' ESG Symposium, 'To Be Held Between August and October 2025. This forum Will Bring Together World Class Organizations Search as the United Nations Development Coordination Office (DCO) and the Massachusetts of Technology (with), Along with) Leading Thai Institutions Search AS the Bank of Thailand, The Thailand Development Research Institute (TDRI), and the Federation of Thai Smu, to jointly develop approaches to improve corporate competitiveness and to restructure the Thai economy in the direction of a low -carbon society (green transition) to ensure the willingness of Thailand, in the middle of the challenges worldwide compete. “
In addition, the board of directors has approved the H1/2025 -Interim payment of 2.50 baht per share of a total of 3,000 MB in order to continuously support shareholders. The dividend is to be paid on August 28, 2025 on August 13, 2025 and the record date on August 14, 2025.
