<p>萨索尔最新的财报电话会议描绘了在艰难的外部环境中进行有序执行的画面。管理层强调了回归正自由现金流、更加严格的成本和资本控制，以及其核心南非资产的运营收益。然而，巨额减值、疲软的化工市场和天然气延误对收益造成了压力，并抑制了短期的乐观情绪。</p>
<h2>正自由现金流和改善的现金生成</h2>
<p>萨索尔在 2026 财年上半年首次实现正自由现金流，较前期改善超过 100%。管理层将此视为现金杠杆有效的证明，强劲的现金生成现在成为投资案例的核心支柱。</p>
<h2>净债务和流动性状况</h2>
<p>截至半年度，净债务为 38 亿美元，流动性空间超过 40 亿美元，毛债务同比下降 9%。公司仍在去杠杆化的道路上，目标是到年底净债务降至 37 亿美元以下，尽管在当前宏观条件下，其更广泛的净债务目标已推迟至 2028 财年左右。</p>
<h2>塞昆达和南非价值链的运营恢复</h2>
<p>塞昆达的生产同比增长 10%，得益于煤炭质量的改善和南非价值链中气化炉的可用性提高。一个关键的推动因素是去石头工厂，该工厂于 12 月达到有利运行，正在以接近 12% 的目标灰分水平运行，并帮助恢复生产稳定性。</p>
<h2>成本和资本纪律</h2>
<p>集团现金固定成本同比下降约 2%，2026 财年上半年的资本支出下降 43%，突显出对回报的更强关注。全年资本支出指引下调 20 亿南非兰特至 220-240 亿南非兰特，管理层强调这反映了真正的效率，而不仅仅是将支出推迟到后几年。</p>
<h2>国际化学品自助进展</h2>
<p>尽管市场疲软，国际化学品的调整后 EBITDA 同比增长约 10%，自助措施开始见效。现金固定成本在报告中下降 6%，在外汇正常化基础上下降约 10%，这得益于资产优化、可变成本节省和有针对性的商业举措。</p>
<h2>对冲和风险管理</h2>
<p>2026 财年的对冲计划现已完成，为萨索尔提供了一定程度的保护，以应对石油和货币的宏观波动。石油对冲覆盖了大约 55-60% 的风险，平均底线约为每桶 59 美元，而 25-30% 的兰特 - 美元风险通过零成本区间对冲在 18-22 南非兰特范围内。</p>
<h2>可再生能源和成长与转型进展</h2>
<p>萨索尔获得了额外的 300 兆瓦可再生能源，将其合同容量提升至超过 1.2 吉瓦，朝着 2030 年 2 吉瓦的目标迈进。目前约有 180 兆瓦已上线，740 兆瓦正在建设中，同时新的可再生能源交易许可证和约 900 万吨的合同抵消支持其更广泛的脱碳战略。</p>
<h2>Natref 和 RBCT 的商业和运营胜利</h2>
<p>Natref 精炼厂的运营表现更佳，得益于其最后一台低碳锅炉的投产。同时，萨索尔在理查兹湾煤炭码头实现了闲置产能的货币化，从出口和租赁安排中产生了可观的额外收入，支持整体现金流。</p>
<h2>集团收益压力和调整后 EBITDA 下降</h2>
<p>由于宏观条件疲软和化工价格低迷，集团调整后 EBITDA 同比下降。毛利率下降约 6%，收益受到商品价格疲软和外汇动态的影响，掩盖了一些内部效率提升的成果。</p>
<h2>巨额减值和非现金重估</h2>
<p>息税前利润下降 52%，主要是由于非现金重估和总计 78 亿南非兰特的巨额减值。这些减值包括对塞昆达液体燃料精炼厂现金生成单元的 30 亿南非兰特减值，以及与莫桑比克和 PSA 天然气资产相关的 39 亿南非兰特费用。</p>
<h2>挑战性的宏观环境</h2>
<p>在外部环境中，萨索尔面临布伦特原油同比下降 14% 和兰特油价约下降 17% 的压力，压缩了上游盈利能力。全球化工市场因产能过剩、需求疲软和高昂的欧洲能源成本而持续承压，这些因素共同影响了价格和利润率。</p>
<h2>莫桑比克/PSA 天然气延误和推迟货币化</h2>
<p>CTT 气电项目的启动延迟和 PSA 领域的物理限制推迟了天然气货币化，并触发了修订的生产计划。这导致对莫桑比克/PSA 资产的 39 亿南非兰特减值，天然气 EBITDA 也因较低的产量和汇率压力而下降。</p>
<h2>意外停工和投资组合干扰</h2>
<p>在上一年末，合资的乙烯裂解装置发生意外停工，干扰了国际化学品的产量和收益势头。投资组合中的其他运营瓶颈进一步限制了表现，迫使管理层加快重置和优化措施。</p>
<h2>安全事件</h2>
<p>此次电话会议因 2025 年 9 月的一起致命事件而蒙上阴影，管理层将其描述为安全旅程中的严重挫折。调查显示在风险意识和规则遵守方面存在不足，促使加强控制和流程，即使在其他安全指标有所改善的情况下。</p>
<h2>净债务仍高于短期目标</h2>
<p>尽管取得了一定进展，净债务仍略高于全年目标的 37 亿美元以下，这突显了较弱的盈利和营运资本增加带来的拖累。管理层现在预计，与股息恢复相关的长期净债务门槛预计要到 FY27-FY28 年才能达到，这取决于宏观经济的结果。</p>
<h2>营运资本和库存时机</h2>
<p>由于生产增加早于销售，净营运资本在上半年暂时上升，导致现金被占用，抑制了更强自由现金流的好处。Sasol 预计在年底前有部分回落的空间，但重申其目标是将净营运资本保持在 15.5%-16.5% 的区间内。</p>
<h2>指导和前瞻性展望</h2>
<p>展望未来，Sasol 重申其严格的财务框架，同时承认减值和利润率下降对盈利的拖累。集团目标是在年底前净债务低于 37 亿美元，资本支出为 220-240 亿南非兰特，持续低于通胀的现金成本增长，以及国际化学品调整后的 EBITDA 今年约为 4.5 亿美元，目标到 FY28 年达到 7.5-8.5 亿美元。</p>
<p>Sasol 的财报电话会议强调了公司在艰难的宏观环境和资产特定的挫折中，稳步增强其资产负债表和运营能力。投资者将关注改善的自由现金流、更严格的成本控制以及不断增长的可再生能源管道是否能够抵消未来几年持续的利润率压力、减值和项目延误。</p>

</div><p>Sasol’s latest earnings call painted a picture of disciplined execution battling tough external headwinds. Management highlighted a return to positive free cash flow, tighter cost and capital control, and operational gains in its core South African assets. Yet heavy impairments, weaker chemical markets, and gas delays weighed on earnings and tempered near‑term optimism.</p>

</div><h2>Positive free cash flow and improved cash generation</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>正自由现金流和改善的现金生成</h2>
</div><p>Sasol generated positive free cash flow in H1 FY26 for the first time in four years, marking a more than 100% improvement versus the prior period. Management portrayed this as proof that cash levers are delivering, with stronger cash generation now a central pillar of the investment case.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>萨索尔在 2026 财年上半年首次实现正自由现金流，较前期改善超过 100%。管理层将此视为现金杠杆有效的证明，强劲的现金生成现在成为投资案例的核心支柱。</p>
</div><h2>Net debt and liquidity position</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>净债务和流动性状况</h2>
</div><p>Net debt closed the half at USD 3.8 billion, with liquidity headroom above USD 4 billion and gross debt 9% lower year‑on‑year. The company remains on a deleveraging path, targeting net debt below USD 3.7 billion by year‑end, though its broader net‑debt ambition has shifted out to around FY28 under current macro conditions.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>截至半年度，净债务为 38 亿美元，流动性空间超过 40 亿美元，毛债务同比下降 9%。公司仍在去杠杆化的道路上，目标是到年底净债务降至 37 亿美元以下，尽管在当前宏观条件下，其更广泛的净债务目标已推迟至 2028 财年左右。</p>
</div><h2>Operational recovery at Secunda and Southern Africa value chain</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>塞昆达和南非价值链的运营恢复</h2>
</div><p>Secunda production rose 10% year‑on‑year, supported by improved coal quality and better gasifier availability across the Southern Africa value chain. A key enabler was the destoning plant, which reached beneficial operation in December, is running at target ash levels near 12%, and is helping restore production stability.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>塞昆达的生产同比增长 10%，得益于煤炭质量的改善和南非价值链中气化炉的可用性提高。一个关键的推动因素是去石头工厂，该工厂于 12 月达到有利运行，正在以接近 12% 的目标灰分水平运行，并帮助恢复生产稳定性。</p>
</div><h2>Cost and capital discipline</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>成本和资本纪律</h2>
</div><p>Group cash fixed costs fell by about 2% year‑on‑year and capital expenditure dropped 43% in H1 FY26, underscoring a sharper focus on returns. Full‑year CapEx guidance was cut by ZAR 2 billion to ZAR 22–24 billion, with management stressing that this reflects genuine efficiency rather than simply pushing spend into later years.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>集团现金固定成本同比下降约 2%，2026 财年上半年的资本支出下降 43%，突显出对回报的更强关注。全年资本支出指引下调 20 亿南非兰特至 220-240 亿南非兰特，管理层强调这反映了真正的效率，而不仅仅是将支出推迟到后几年。</p>
</div><h2>International Chemicals self-help progress</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>国际化学品自助进展</h2>
</div><p>Despite weak markets, International Chemicals posted roughly 10% adjusted EBITDA growth year‑on‑year as self‑help measures started to bite. Cash fixed costs fell 6% in reported terms and around 10% on an FX‑normalised basis, driven by asset optimisation, variable cost savings, and targeted commercial initiatives.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>尽管市场疲软，国际化学品的调整后 EBITDA 同比增长约 10%，自助措施开始见效。现金固定成本在报告中下降 6%，在外汇正常化基础上下降约 10%，这得益于资产优化、可变成本节省和有针对性的商业举措。</p>
</div><h2>Hedging and risk management</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>对冲和风险管理</h2>
</div><p>The FY26 hedging programme is now complete, giving Sasol a degree of protection from macro swings in oil and currency. Oil hedges cover roughly 55–60% of exposure with an average floor of about $59 per barrel, while 25–30% of rand‑dollar risk is hedged through zero‑cost collars in the ZAR18–22 range.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>2026 财年的对冲计划现已完成，为萨索尔提供了一定程度的保护，以应对石油和货币的宏观波动。石油对冲覆盖了大约 55-60% 的风险，平均底线约为每桶 59 美元，而 25-30% 的兰特 - 美元风险通过零成本区间对冲在 18-22 南非兰特范围内。</p>
</div><h2>Renewables and Grow &amp; Transform progress</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>可再生能源和成长与转型进展</h2>
</div><p>Sasol secured an additional 300 MW of renewable power, lifting its contracted capacity to more than 1.2 GW toward a 2 GW target by 2030. About 180 MW is already on line and 740 MW is under construction, while a new renewable trading licence and roughly 9 million tonnes of contracted offsets support its broader decarbonisation strategy.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>萨索尔获得了额外的 300 兆瓦可再生能源，将其合同容量提升至超过 1.2 吉瓦，朝着 2030 年 2 吉瓦的目标迈进。目前约有 180 兆瓦已上线，740 兆瓦正在建设中，同时新的可再生能源交易许可证和约 900 万吨的合同抵消支持其更广泛的脱碳战略。</p>
</div><h2>Commercial and operational wins at Natref and RBCT</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>Natref 和 RBCT 的商业和运营胜利</h2>
</div><p>The Natref refinery delivered better operational performance, helped by the commissioning of its final low‑carbon boiler. At the same time, Sasol monetised spare capacity at the Richards Bay Coal Terminal, generating significant extra income from exports and leasing arrangements that support overall cash flow.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>Natref 精炼厂的运营表现更佳，得益于其最后一台低碳锅炉的投产。同时，萨索尔在理查兹湾煤炭码头实现了闲置产能的货币化，从出口和租赁安排中产生了可观的额外收入，支持整体现金流。</p>
</div><h2>Group earnings pressure and lower adjusted EBITDA</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>集团收益压力和调整后 EBITDA 下降</h2>
</div><p>Group adjusted EBITDA fell year‑on‑year as weaker macro conditions and subdued chemical prices squeezed profitability. Gross margin declined around 6% and earnings were hit by softer commodity prices and foreign‑exchange dynamics, overshadowing some of the internal efficiency gains.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>由于宏观条件疲软和化工价格低迷，集团调整后 EBITDA 同比下降。毛利率下降约 6%，收益受到商品价格疲软和外汇动态的影响，掩盖了一些内部效率提升的成果。</p>
</div><h2>Significant impairments and non-cash remeasurements</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>巨额减值和非现金重估</h2>
</div><p>Earnings before interest and tax dropped 52%, driven largely by non‑cash remeasurements and sizeable impairments totalling ZAR 7.8 billion. These included a ZAR 3.0 billion impairment that fully wrote down the Secunda liquid fuels refinery cash‑generating unit and a ZAR 3.9 billion charge tied to Mozambique and PSA gas assets.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>息税前利润下降 52%，主要是由于非现金重估和总计 78 亿南非兰特的巨额减值。这些减值包括对塞昆达液体燃料精炼厂现金生成单元的 30 亿南非兰特减值，以及与莫桑比克和 PSA 天然气资产相关的 39 亿南非兰特费用。</p>
</div><h2>Challenging macro environment</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>挑战性的宏观环境</h2>
</div><p>Externally, Sasol faced a 14% year‑on‑year decline in Brent crude and an approximate 17% fall in the rand oil price, crimping upstream profitability. Global chemical markets remained under pressure from overcapacity, softer demand, and high European energy costs, which collectively weighed on prices and margins.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在外部环境中，萨索尔面临布伦特原油同比下降 14% 和兰特油价约下降 17% 的压力，压缩了上游盈利能力。全球化工市场因产能过剩、需求疲软和高昂的欧洲能源成本而持续承压，这些因素共同影响了价格和利润率。</p>
</div><h2>Mozambique/PSA gas delays and deferred monetization</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>莫桑比克/PSA 天然气延误和推迟货币化</h2>
</div><p>Start‑up delays at the CTT gas‑to‑power project and physical constraints at the PSA fields postponed gas monetisation and triggered a revised production profile. This led to the ZAR 3.9 billion impairment on the Mozambique/PSA assets, with gas EBITDA also down on lower volumes and exchange‑rate headwinds.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>CTT 气电项目的启动延迟和 PSA 领域的物理限制推迟了天然气货币化，并触发了修订的生产计划。这导致对莫桑比克/PSA 资产的 39 亿南非兰特减值，天然气 EBITDA 也因较低的产量和汇率压力而下降。</p>
</div><h2>Unplanned outages and portfolio disruption</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>意外停工和投资组合干扰</h2>
</div><p>An unplanned outage at a joint‑venture ethylene cracker at the end of the prior year disrupted International Chemicals volumes and earnings momentum. Additional operational bottlenecks across the portfolio further constrained performance, forcing management to accelerate reset and optimisation actions.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>在上一年末，合资的乙烯裂解装置发生意外停工，干扰了国际化学品的产量和收益势头。投资组合中的其他运营瓶颈进一步限制了表现，迫使管理层加快重置和优化措施。</p>
</div><h2>Safety incident</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>安全事件</h2>
</div><p>The call was overshadowed by a fatality in September 2025, which management described as a serious setback in its safety journey. An investigation revealed shortcomings in risk awareness and rule compliance, prompting strengthened controls and processes even as leading safety metrics have otherwise improved.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>此次电话会议因 2025 年 9 月的一起致命事件而蒙上阴影，管理层将其描述为安全旅程中的严重挫折。调查显示在风险意识和规则遵守方面存在不足，促使加强控制和流程，即使在其他安全指标有所改善的情况下。</p>
</div><h2>Net debt still above near-term target</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>净债务仍高于短期目标</h2>
</div><p>Despite progress, net debt remains slightly above the full‑year goal of less than USD 3.7 billion, highlighting the drag from weaker earnings and working‑capital build. Management now expects the longer‑term net‑debt threshold linked to dividend resumption to be met only around FY27–FY28, depending on macro outcomes.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>尽管取得了一定进展，净债务仍略高于全年目标的 37 亿美元以下，这突显了较弱的盈利和营运资本增加带来的拖累。管理层现在预计，与股息恢复相关的长期净债务门槛预计要到 FY27-FY28 年才能达到，这取决于宏观经济的结果。</p>
</div><h2>Working capital and inventory timing</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>营运资本和库存时机</h2>
</div><p>Net working capital rose temporarily in H1 as higher production preceded sales, tying up cash and muting the benefit of stronger free cash flow. Sasol sees scope for a partial unwind before year‑end but reiterated its aim to keep net working capital within a 15.5–16.5% band over time.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>由于生产增加早于销售，净营运资本在上半年暂时上升，导致现金被占用，抑制了更强自由现金流的好处。Sasol 预计在年底前有部分回落的空间，但重申其目标是将净营运资本保持在 15.5%-16.5% 的区间内。</p>
</div><h2>Guidance and forward-looking outlook</h2>
<div class="lb-trans"><h2>指导和前瞻性展望</h2>
</div><p>Looking ahead, Sasol reaffirmed its disciplined financial framework while acknowledging the earnings drag from impairments and softer margins. The group targets year‑end net debt below USD 3.7 billion, CapEx of ZAR 22–24 billion, continued below‑inflation cash cost growth, and International Chemicals adjusted EBITDA of about USD 450 million this year with ambitions of USD 750–850 million by FY28.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>展望未来，Sasol 重申其严格的财务框架，同时承认减值和利润率下降对盈利的拖累。集团目标是在年底前净债务低于 37 亿美元，资本支出为 220-240 亿南非兰特，持续低于通胀的现金成本增长，以及国际化学品调整后的 EBITDA 今年约为 4.5 亿美元，目标到 FY28 年达到 7.5-8.5 亿美元。</p>
</div><p>Sasol’s earnings call underscored a company steadily strengthening its balance sheet and operations despite a difficult macro and asset‑specific setbacks. Investors will watch whether improved free cash flow, tighter cost control, and a growing renewables pipeline can offset ongoing margin pressure, impairments, and project delays over the next few years.</p>
<div class="lb-trans"><p>Sasol 的财报电话会议强调了公司在艰难的宏观环境和资产特定的挫折中，稳步增强其资产负债表和运营能力。投资者将关注改善的自由现金流、更严格的成本控制以及不断增长的可再生能源管道是否能够抵消未来几年持续的利润率压力、减值和项目延误。</p>
