据股票交易所的文件显示，马国油化工公司报告去年四季度实现净利润10亿林吉特（2.58亿美元），而上年同期为9.87亿林吉特。这个利润水平也超过了此前Eikon调查平均估计的9.9395亿林吉特。

马国油化工表示，去年四季度公司的营业收入同比增加20%，从上年同期的39.5亿林吉特增加至47.4亿林吉特，主要受益于产品价格上涨和销售量增加，但是部分受到美元疲软的抵消。

Petronas Chemicals 4th-Quarter Net Profit Topped Forecasts
Petronas Chemicals Group Bhd. (5183.KU) said Tuesday net profit in the fourth quarter climbed 1.8% from a year earlier, beating forecasts, on increased sales.
The chemical-processing arm of Petroliam Nasional Bhd., or Petronas--Malaysia's national oil company--posted net profit of 1 billion ringgit ($258 million), compared with MYR987 million a year ago, according to a stock-exchange filing. The result beat the average estimate of MYR993.95 million in an Eikon poll.
Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization rose 16% to MYR1.7 billion. Increased tax expenditure and depreciation translated into a softer rise in net profit.
Revenue climbed 20% to MYR4.74 billion from MYR3.95 billion largely thanks to rising prices and sales volume, but this was partly offset by a weakening dollar, the company said.
