Credit

China Oil & Gas (COG) has reported reasonable H1/24 results. Gross profit and EBITDA weakened slightly, mainly weighed down by lower earnings from residential connections amid the property market downturn. That said, there was slight earnings growth from the other business segments. Leverage was broadly stable, supported by reduced capex. Liquidity was adequate, as the company drew down on its new USD 315 mn three-year syndicated loan and repaid the bridging facility. COG's next meaningful debt maturity is in June 2026 (when the USD 300 mn notes will come due). We believe the company has options to address the bond repayment, considering its steady business operations and stable (albeit moderately weak) financial profile.
