Key Observation

• Quarterly Gross Profit and Gross Profit Margin

▪ QoQ : +15.1% in Gross Profit and +1.4% in Gross Profit Margin

mainly from increase in Co-Gen sale compared to Q4/20.

▪ YoY : -1.4% in Gross Profit but +2.9% in Gross Profit Margin

Though slight decrease in GP, GPM still increased as a result of cost

saving by using in-house O&M service.

Contribute to the Paris Agreement Decreasing greenhouse gas emission.

Future Potential To provide base-load to grid in place of conventional energy

• Saves government’s spending on putting down forest fires and farm fires

• Saves government’s spending on PM 2.5 related health problems such as respiratory

complications, masks distributions and water spraying in cities, to from PM 2.5 particle.

• Prevents economic loss from the decrease in tourism due to PM 2.5 problems.

Solves PM 2.5 problem at the root

• Additional income to farmers

• Stabilize income for farmers under market uncertainty → reduce empty subsidies that

the government has to give out

• Distribution of revenue to grassroots : Shift from LNG imports to purchasing fuel from individual Thai

farmers
