Yankuang Energy reports strong Q3 2025 operating performance

Yankuang Energy Group Co., Ltd. announced its key operating data for the third quarter and first nine months of 2025, showing a notable increase in commodity coal output and sales. Commodity coal production rose by 4.92% to 4,603 million tons in Q3, with sales up 10.08% to 4,582 million tons compared to the previous year. For the first nine months, commodity coal production increased by 6.90% to 13,589 million tons, and sales grew by 2.43% to 12,624 million tons. This data includes the consolidation of Shandong Energy Group Northwest Mining Co., Ltd., with prior period figures restated for comparability.

In its chemical businesses, Yankuang Energy reported mixed results. Significant increases were observed in ethylene glycol production (up 33.00% to 11.61 million tons) and sales (up 35.31% to 11.48 million tons) for Q3, primarily due to system overhauls in the prior year. Urea production surged by 22.50% to 21.92 million tons in Q3, attributed to the Yanzhou Lunan Chemical Co., Ltd. plant commencing operations in Q2 2024. However, some segments like methanol saw a slight decrease in Q3 production.

Separately, Yankuang Energy's overseas subsidiary, Yancoal Australia Ltd., reported its Q3 2025 operating data, with commodity coal production (equity share) at 9.3 million tons, a 9% decrease, and sales (equity share) at 10.7 million tons, a 3% increase. The average realized price for Yancoal Australia decreased by 18% to A$140 per ton in Q3.
