IMPACT OF COVID-19

EFFECT OF PANDEMIC ON CHEMICAL INDUSTRY

Agricultural market

The COVID-19 pandemic had no significant impact on the crop segment of Poland’s agriculture.

Fertilizers - Poland

The COVID-19 pandemic had no significant impact on the Fertilizer segment in Poland.

Fertilizers - other countries

Except temporary logistics constraints of local nature, the COVID-19 pandemic had no significant impact on the fertilizer segment in the EU.

Polyamide

Record-high price declines in polyamide 6. Increased demand from the food packaging and healthcare sectors.

Melamine

Oversupply on Asian markets. Demand is still low due to the pandemic.

OXO ALCOHOLS

Demand expected to pick up in Q3 2020. Very low crude oil prices expected to keep in check any meaningful increase in product prices.

Titanium white

There has been no reduction in the supply of titanium white in Europe, while the demand is strongly affected by the measures taken in response to the spread of coronavirus.

Natural gas

Record-high winter temperatures in Europe. Subdued demand due to the COVID-19 epidemic.

PRICES OF HARD COAL ELECTRICITY PRICES CO2 PRICES [Q/Q]

PLN/MWh USD/t EUR/t

The long-term growth trend initiated in Q3 2017 is in the correction phase. The number of emission allowances held by the Grupa Azoty Group companies is sufficient to cover their CO2 emissions for 2019. The EC continues to work on the European Green Deal which will enforce emission reductions and reduce the allocation of free emission allowances. We expect the downward trend to continue. The Grupa Azoty Group companies have secured the required volumes under their contracts. We are awaiting decisions about reliefs under the Capacity Market Act. Regulations on the amount of charges come into force as of October 1st 2020, already accounted for in the 2020 budget. We expect prices to continue at recent levels. In Poland, the supply exceeds the demand in both the producer and the customer segments of the market. The Group companies are parties to long-term contracts securing the required volumes. Deliveries are made as planned. In mid-year, the EC plans to start its revision of the Community framework for the taxation of energy products.

NATURAL GAS PRICES

40% year-on-year decline in the average quarterly gas prices according to Gaspool data High stock levels maintained in case transit through Ukraine is suspended Significant increase in LNG supply on the global market Low gas prices in Asia – Europe more favourable to LNG suppliers from the Atlantic region.
