Petrolina Profit Rises To €8.3M In 2025, Dividend Proposed

Robust Financial Performance

Petrolina (Holdings) Public Limited reported consolidated profit after tax of €8,300,087 for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared with €2,725,272 in 2024, indicating a higher level of profitability year on year. At the same time, profit before tax reached €8,726,827, up from €3,070,903 in the previous year, according to the consolidated management report.

Dividend Policy And Shareholder Returns

Following this performance, the board proposed a final dividend of 2.0 cents per share, corresponding to a 5.88% payout, in addition to interim dividends of 1.0 cents and 1.2 cents paid in November and December 2025. Approval of the dividend remains subject to the upcoming annual general meeting.

Strategic Expansion And Market Diversification

Operations include 95 service stations in Cyprus and 223 in Greece through the subsidiary Silk Oil, indicating the group’s presence across both markets. Expansion continued with the acquisition of ExxonMobil Cyprus Limited on January 30, 2026, which was subsequently renamed eWise Cyprus Ltd and allows Petrolina to supply Esso-branded products in Cyprus.

Commitment To Innovation And Renewable Energy

Alongside its core operations, the company is expanding into renewable energy through the rollout of electric vehicle charging stations under the “pcharge” brand. Infrastructure developments include a new station in Frenaros, upgrades to point-of-sale systems, and the relocation of fuel storage and LPG facilities to Vassiliko.

Managing Geopolitical And Market Challenges

External conditions continue to affect operations, particularly developments in the Middle East and disruptions in energy supply routes such as the Strait of Hormuz. In response, sourcing has shifted toward Greek refineries and partners in the Eastern Mediterranean, while trade measures introduced in 2025 have increased costs related to imports, financing, and inventory.

Looking Ahead

The results combine higher profitability with continued expansion across operations and infrastructure. At the same time, sourcing adjustments and cost pressures reflect current conditions in energy markets and international trade.
