The Company has implemented a significant transition in our financial reporting framework to better reflect our operational reality as a Thai-listed entity. Effective this period, we have shifted from US Dollar-based adjusted metrics to "reported" results denominated in Thai Baht (THB). This move is designed to align our management reporting directly with our statutory accounts and international definitions of business performance. By reporting in THB, management gains critical visibility into currency translation impacts, enabling more robust balance sheet and exposure management. Furthermore, by moving away from adjusted EBITDA and focusing on reported figures, we aim to instill greater accountability for operating efficiency and inventory performance, ensuring that factors such as inventory gains or losses are not excluded from our primary performance assessments.

IVL Snapshot - 1Q 2026 Highlight
This quarter's presentation marks a deliberate shift in our reporting philosophy, embracing "Radical Clarity" by moving to reported Thai Baht financials. This change is foundational to how we explain our performance, particularly concerning inventory gains and losses. We firmly believe these are not exceptional items but are a part and parcel of operating in a commodity business. We will no longer seek to explain away these fluctuations but will instead own them as a feature of our operational reality.
The first quarter of 2026 marked a decisive inflection point for Indorama Ventures, demonstrating a strong operational and financial recovery from the cyclical trough of 2023-2025. Amid a volatile global petrochemical landscape, the Company delivered clear sequential momentum, driven by the disciplined execution of our "IVL 2.0" strategy and a fundamentally altered market environment following geopolitical disruptions in the Middle East.
Management has conducted extensive analysis of historical cycle data across our businesses and industries during the quarter. That work reinforces a consistent conclusion: the underlying indicators are characteristic of an early-to-mid upcycle, and the sequential recovery observed in first quarter 2026 is consistent with that trajectory. We enter the remainder of 2026 with conviction. The operational and financial recovery has been supported not only by improving external conditions but also by deliberate internal actions that place the business to better capture the upcycle.
In line with our new reporting philosophy, we analyze our performance across three dimensions: volume, margin and portfolio mix, and currency. This framework provides
greater transparency into the underlying drivers of earnings.
Consolidated revenue in 1Q26 rose 7% quarter-on-quarter (QoQ) to THB 109,296 million, reflecting broad-based sequential improvement across volume, mix and pricing, partially offset by a 2% currency headwind from the appreciation of Thai Baht against the US Dollar. On a volume basis, the normalization of our turnaround cycle in 2025 restored capacity across key assets and contributed to sequential revenue growth, supported by resilient offtake across our demand-inelastic end markets. Margin and portfolio mix, together with a higher crude oil price environment, was the major contributor, reflecting both the pass-through of feedstock cost movements and improved commercial positioning within the portfolio.
EBITDA for 1Q26 increased significantly by 89% QoQ to THB 8,048 million, with positive contribution along each of these dimensions. Volume improvement stems from the completion of our turnaround cycle in 2025 and improved operating rates. The dominant driver of sequential performance has been the improvement in margin and portfolio mix driven by a combination of higher industry spreads in our core products and improved operating leverage across the business. The appreciation of the Thai Baht has impacted a modest translational loss of 3% to the earnings. Management expects 2026 performance to remain supported across all three dimensions as the year progresses.
Our North American operations navigated a winter freeze event during the quarter, an exceptional weather disruption. Rapid response by our operations teams contained damage effectively, keeping unplanned maintenance capital expenditure to a minimum and preserving asset integrity. The primary financial impacts were twofold: a temporary reduction in operating rates, while the associated surge in natural gas prices added energy cost headwinds.
Our sequential improvement is largely driven by proactive self-help measures, centered on five enterprise priorities, are delivering measurable results. The institutionalization of S&OE as our core operating rhythm has provided real-time visibility, enabling tighter inventory management and accelerating our cash conversion cycle.
In 1Q26, the company generated operating cash flow (post maintenance capex) of THB
8.76 billion, reflecting an EBITDA conversion rate of 109%. A key feature of the quarter was a THB 3.23 billion reduction in net working capital, particularly notable given that sales volumes grew 3% QoQ and average crude prices rose 23%. The improvement was driven by tighter inventory management and enhanced discipline through Sales & Operations Execution (S&OE), enabling more responsive positioning against evolving demand signals and price movements.
Balance sheet momentum continued in the quarter. Net debt-to-equity improved to
1.73x from 1.83x, supported by working capital discipline and favorable currency translation from Thai baht weakness. This improving leverage profile provides financial flexibility to support our strategic priorities while maintaining our commitment to deleveraging. The proposed merger of our Indovida packaging business with EPL Limited, in which IVL will retain a controlling ~51.8% stake, is a key strategic milestone that will
create a formidable Packaging Federation and enhance our long-term earnings quality.
Looking ahead, the combination of external tailwinds and our embedded self-help programs supports our confidence in sustaining performance momentum into Q2 2026. We expect continued favorable pricing, higher utilization of our advantaged assets, and further margin expansion. These factors position IVL to deliver additional sequential earnings improvement, accelerate deleveraging toward our target of 3x Net Debt/EBITDA, and make solid progress toward our 2028 ambitions.

IVL reported EBITDA of THB 8,048 million in 1Q26, representing a 10% decline YoY, while increasing significantly by 89% QoQ.
Combined PET (CPET): This segment was the standout performer, with EBITDA surging 134% QoQ and 38% YoY, to THB 5,464 million. The strong rebound was driven by volume normalization following planned turnarounds and improved industry spreads starting since January. The segment's "Shale-to-PET" integration in the Americas provided a widening structural cost advantage as crude-linked feedstock costs for competitors rose.
Indovida: Improved both QoQ and YoY, posting EBITDA of THB 743 million, as the segment continued to demonstrate resilience, maintaining stable high-teen EBITDA margins supported by a broad recovery in key growth markets.
Indovinya: EBITDA declined 7% QoQ and 44% YoY to THB 1,715 million. While the North America portfolio remained largely resilient, the South America portfolio faced supply demand pressure, impacting volumes and margins in the region. The segment is poised for a structural turnaround as ongoing supply chain disruptions neutralize cheap Asian imports into key markets like Brazil, enabling our local assets to reprice to elevated import-parity levels.
Fibers: EBITDA improved 70% QoQ to THB 879 million but fell 48% YoY, reflecting continued demand softness in Mobility and Lifestyle applications. In line with our "Radical Clarity" culture, management deliberately reduced production rates to align supply with demand, prioritizing cash flow and inventory discipline over chasing underutilized volume.
YoY, on a regional basis, you can see that both Asia and EMEA contributed a larger portion to overall earnings this quarter, coming from both management actions as well as improved industry spreads and demand.
While the Americas remains the primary contributor, it has declined, largely coming from Indovinya, and more specifically from South America.

In this evolving landscape, IVL's four powerful competitive moats are being validated and amplified.
The global "local-for-local" operating model ensures supply-chain resilience for customers and suppliers alike, while positioning us to capture higher import-parity pricing in Western markets.
We today have 4 business engines, serving attractive diversified markets. All four are served from one global core platform, leveraging global scale, customer access, know-how, and feedstock integration.
Our unmatched "Shale-to-PET" integration in the Americas continues to deliver a widening structural cost advantage through low-cost ethane linked to US shale gas versus volatile crude-linked naphtha for competitors.
And, finally our Operating Rhythm. IVL manages a complex global footprint. To manage the associated risks, we are refining our Sales & Operations Execution discipline, allowing us to steer in real time, adjusting production and stock levels on a weekly basis to match actual market demand. The consequent improvement in inventory turns will free up vital cash flow, contributing to our target of reducing Net Debt/EBITDA to less than 3 times by 2028.

Now, if we look at the PET industry, this is where we are seeing a lot of structural improvement in the industry environment - not just a temporary spike driven by geopolitical events.
Yes, Hormuz has clearly accelerated the recent margin uplift. But the more important point is that the PET industry itself is becoming healthier and more disciplined.
For several years, the industry suffered from excessive capacity additions, particularly in China. That phase is now slowing materially. Between 2022 and 2025, global PET capacity grew very aggressively. Going forward, growth drops to almost 1% CAGR, which is a completely different supply environment.
At the same time, weak industry returns over the past 3 years have forced players to be more rational. Nearly 4 million tons of China PET capacity is currently offline, and producers today are prioritizing profitability over chasing volume. This is a major behavioral shift for the industry.
You can already see the impact in operating rates and inventories. Operating rates remain controlled, while inventory days continue to decline. That tells us discipline is improving across the value chain.
Importantly, PET margins had already started recovering before the Hormuz situation. The disruption simply tightened the market further and pushed spreads above $200 per ton.
Now, we do not assume these very elevated margins are permanent. Naturally, margins will normalize from current peak levels. But structurally, we believe the floor is now much higher than what we experienced in 2024 and 2025.
And for IVL, this is very important.
It means PET can once again become a more stable and resilient earnings contributor, supported not by short-term shortages, but by a healthier industry structure and much better supply discipline.

What we are seeing now is not simply a short-term geopolitical reaction. The underlying market structure has already been changing over the past 12-18 months.
Globally, the ethylene chain is undergoing rationalization. In Europe, we are already seeing permanent shutdowns and additional high-cost capacity at risk. In Korea and Japan, producers are openly discussing material cracker reductions and industry consolidation. China is also moving toward stricter discipline around older and less competitive assets.
We are also beginning to see this trend in Southeast Asia. In Thailand, our two major industry peers are pursuing collaboration in the olefins and polyolefins value chain to improve operating efficiency, optimize assets, and strengthen long-term competitiveness. This is another sign that the industry is moving toward a more disciplined supply environment.
So the first point is: global supply growth is no longer unconstrained. The industry is becoming more disciplined after several years of oversupply and weak returns.
Against this backdrop, the recent Hormuz disruptions have further accelerated tightening in the market. More than 15% of global petrochemical capacity is exposed to the region, so naturally customers are becoming more cautious around supply security and availability.
The US remains structurally advantaged because of its cost position. However, many downstream ethylene derivatives are export-oriented products. As global markets tighten, that means higher international realizations translate directly into stronger US ethylene economics and higher spot adders.
You can see on the right-hand side that US ethylene margins had been under pressure during the period of aggressive global capacity additions and elevated natural gas costs. But as rationalization progresses and global balances improve, margins are now recovering quite meaningfully.
So our view is that this is not only a cyclical rebound. We believe the industry is entering a healthier and more disciplined phase, where supply rationalization and export parity dynamics can support a more sustainable margin environment going forward.

What we are trying to illustrate on this slide is how to think about the different building blocks of our PET earnings profile - and more importantly, where we believe we can structurally improve the quality and consistency of our earnings going forward.
At the bottom, the grey area is the Asia PET melt cost. Naturally, that moves with Brent and raw material prices. We cannot control that.
On top of that, the blue layer is the Asia PET spread, which is fundamentally driven by industry supply-demand. As we will be discussing later, we believe the industry is now going through a reset and we are already seeing improvement beginning to come through.
Then the light blue portion is what we call the IVL PET net premium. This is very important because this reflects our local-for-local advantage, our commercial positioning, our operating rhythm and ultimately the quality of our Sales & Operations Execution - or S&OE.
Now, if you look carefully, you will see two periods where the premium got squeezed quite sharply.
The first was in late 2022. That period was during the rapid destocking cycle when prices were falling very aggressively across the chain. We had inventory liquidation happening during a declining market, and naturally that compressed the premium. So that was really a falling-price destocking environment.
Then you see another squeeze in 1Q26, but the dynamics there were actually different.
In this case, we had already taken the strategic decision which we told you about back in Nov 2025, to aggressively reduce inventory and improve inventory turns. So commercially we became very aggressive in securing orders and building the order book.
At the same time, feedstock prices moved up sharply in March which we could not have anticipated.
So the premium temporarily got squeezed.
What is important here is that both these situations are operational in nature. They are not structural issues with the competitiveness of the business.
And this is exactly why, since Capital Markets Day, we have been putting so much focus on disciplined S&OE rhythm, tighter inventory management and improving inventory turns across the organization.
If you normalize for these temporary dislocations, the underlying premium profile is actually much steadier - and that is what the green overlay is intended to illustrate.
So the key message is:
We cannot control Brent, and we cannot fully control industry spreads, but we can absolutely improve our premium through better execution, better inventory discipline and a stronger operating rhythm.
The objective is to reduce volatility and deliver a healthier, more consistent premium profile through the cycle.

Indicative P&L impact from market variability

Let me explain an important dynamic in our business model that becomes particularly relevant during periods of market volatility.
In CPET and several of our downstream businesses, there is naturally a timing difference between when raw materials are procured and when finished products are sold to customers. Procurement cargoes may arrive in one pricing month, while sales deliveries occur across subsequent months. In stable markets, this timing effect is manageable. However, in volatile markets, it can create P&L exposure.
This timing mismatch can create earnings variability depending on the market and volatility environment.
To proactively manage this exposure, IVL's S&OE discipline gives us weekly visibility into procurement positions, sales commitments, inventory exposure, and pricing movements.
With that visibility, management can take concrete actions:
adjust inventory positions ahead of anticipated supply-demand imbalances, better align procurement arrivals with customer commitments,
provide forward cost visibility to commercial teams to support pricing discussions, optimize product flows across plants and geographies during disruptions,
and increasingly structure longer-term contracts to create more natural hedges between
sourcing and sales pricing.
We are institutionalizing processes and data visibility to actively manage and reduce that variance over time.
And now I would like to hand it over to our Executive Presidents to take us through their segment performance. Over to you, Muthu.

QoQ 1Q26 vs 4Q25
CPET
Combined PET EBITDA for 1Q26 was THB 5.5 billion, representing a 38% increase YoY and a 134% improvement QoQ.
Integrated PET (IPET) was the primary contributor to the segment's performance. While asset optimization actions reduced PTA volumes, the improvement in PET volumes especially from favorable demand trends in the Americas, and expanded spreads were key drivers of performance. The quarter benefited from higher China integrated PET benchmark spreads from average of $116 per ton in 4Q25 to an average of $176 per ton in 1Q26. Importantlythe improvement in the benchmark spreads this quarter started before the ongoing Middle East conflict, driven by supply-side discipline. The conflict then accelerated the trend sharply, with spreads reaching $219 per ton in March, as high export demand combined with tightened raw material availability across Asian markets created short market conditions. The YoY improvement was also supported by lower fixed costs, primarily from recycling sites and PTA capacity rationalization.
In Specialty Chemicals, EBITDA was sequentially lower, mainly due to reduced NDC volumes, however partially negated by higher margins. Performance was further impacted by lower PIA margins in Europe.
For Intermediate Chemicals, earnings improved QoQ due to the normalization of volumes post the MTBE turnaround, stronger MTBE and US integrated EG spreads, partially offset by winter freeze impact and reliability issues in Ethylene and EG sites during 1Q26.
Overall, 1Q26 marked strong earnings rebound for Combined PET, driven by improved
margins and enhanced operating leverage across the value chain.

Indovida EBITDA (THB M)
Indovida
Indovida delivered EBITDA of THB 743 million in 1Q26, increasing both YoY and QoQ, while maintaining an EBITDA margin in the high-teen levels.
The 8% YoY increase was primarily driven by a broad recovery in demand across various markets, particularly in Egypt, the Philippines, and Ghana. Performance was further supported by an improved portfolio mix and margins in Nigeria and Egypt and by improved demand environment in Thailand.
The continued ramp-up in Tanzania following the March 2025 startup of the greenfield facility enabled a full-quarter contribution, leading to incremental volumes and enhanced EBITDA performance.
EBITDA increased by 10% QoQ, reflecting strong volume growth across all regions, particularly in Asia, driven by strengthened domestic demand which was supported by the seasonal uplifts due to hot weather and inventory restocking ahead of the peak season. Margin improvement in Nigeria and Egypt further supported profitability.

Indovinya posted EBITDA of THB 1,715 million in 1Q26 with an overall EBITDA margin of 9.1% and HVA margins of 12.0%. In 1Q26, HVA specialty products generated 78% of net revenue and accounted for all of Indovinya's EBITDA. This quarter was negatively impacted by strengthening of BRL currency, accounting for THB 253 million variance YoY, however there has been a much higher positive YoY translation gain of appox. THB 1.4 billion in Equity of IVL due to net long Brazilian Rial Investments.
In North America, YoY sales volumes rose 5%, despite the winter freeze event and related outages. The primary sales volume increase came from normalization post the Q4 PO TAR, and the start of implementation of new PO sales contracts. This quarter was impacted by higher feedstock costs, both on ethane and the oleochemical chain, compressing integrated margins. Meanwhile, volume and revenue for the HVA markets saw resilience, with growing support from tighter supply in certain products. Higher cost of catalyst also impacted earnings.
In South America, HVA YoY sales volumes grew 2%, whereas the essential business sales fell 20%, primarily due to a weaker solvents business pressured by supply demand dynamics and Tariff frameworks. HVA margins were affected by higher raw material and lower by-product credits on the oleochemical chain, whereas the essential business margins were primarily a function of the solvents business. Higher cost of catalyst further impacted results. QoQ, impacts were primarily due to aforementioned solvents supply demand dynamics and oleochemical chain pricing. Pricing actions are underway, and seasonal demand will support higher volumes into H2. Improvements in Brazilian industry support, through REIQ, ADD and reduction of the IEEPA tariffs, towards the end of Q1 has been well received, adding to forward looking structural tailwinds.
