CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION OF GRUPA AZOTY GROUP

GRUPA AZOTY GROUP – CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION 17 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.
