Petkim falls after Q3 loss misses expectations

BUZZ-Petkim falls after Q3 loss misses expectations

** Shares in Turkey's Petkim Petrokimya Holding PETKM.IS fall more than 3%, after the petrochemicals producer reported third-quarter results below market expectations

** The company reports a Q3 net loss of 817 million lira ($16.33 million), compared with a loss of 1.6 billion lira a year earlier; revenue rises to 32.0 billion lira from 28.8 billion lira a year ago

** Brokerage Is Yatirim says the results are significantly below expectations; the company reports a Q3 net loss versus forecasts for a net profit of 1.44 billion lira

** Q3 EBITDA comes in at 299 million lira, below estimates of 390 million lira, as a sharp contraction in petrochemical margins weighs on profitability

** Weaker-than-expected operating performance, lower monetary gains and higher tax expenses drive the earnings miss, the brokerage says

** Shares are on track for their worst day since October 28 and hit their lowest level in more than a week

($1 = 50.0383 lira)
