Jeopardized by impairments, SINOPEC CORP (00386.HK)'s 2024 earnings were 15% below the broker's forecast, said BOCI in its report.

In BOCI's estimate, SINOPEC CORP's earnings will remain flat in 2025 if there are no further impairments, and a recovery in refining margins will make up much of the shortfall in exploration and production earnings due to oil price reduction.
