The higher spot price after the explosion at Shanghai Huayi (in June 2013) does not seem to have benefitted Sunvic -- its AA/AE ASP in 2013 was the lowest for the 4-year period between 2010 and 2013:
..........Sales vol (tonnes)....Rev (RMB m)...ASP (RMB)..Profit (RMB m)
2013...........512,200...............5,486...........10,710........370
2012...........347,700...............3,940...........11,330..........97
2011...........216,000...............3,360...........15,560........504
2010...........228,500...............3,268...........14,300........650
2009...........174,600...............1,466.............8,400...........4
Could the higher 2013 profit be due to lower raw material (proplyene) price, higher AA/Ae price in 4Q 2013 after the explosion? Or was Sunvic constrained by supply agreements with downstream companies in adopting the higher spot price?
