TotalEnergies Marketing Nigeria Plc, a member of the TotalEnergies Group, and a player in the petroleum downstream sector has released its unaudited financial statements for 2023.
The company posted a pre-tax profit of N17.6 billion in FY 2023, which reflects a 28% decline from the N24.5 billion pre-tax profit posted in 2022.
In 2023, the company recorded a revenue of N636.0 billion, representing a 32% growth from the N482.5 billion recorded in 2022.
However, there was a corresponding 31% growth in cost of sales to N554.1 billion in FY 2023 from N422.3 billion posted in FY 2022.
The company’s revenue growth was linked to the growth in the sales of petroleum products off the back of the removal of subsidies on petroleum products.
The company recorded a 40% growth in petroleum products revenue to N509.3 billion from FY 2022’s N362.7 billion.
The company recorded a 36% growth in gross profit to N81.8 billion in 2023, from the N60.2 billion posted in 2022.
However, there was a 14% decline in operating profit to N23.9 billion in the fiscal year, from the N27.7 billion posted in 2022.
The decline in operating profit is linked to the net foreign exchange loss of N11.5 billion caused by the devaluation of the Naira in 2023.
