Recent Company History
Over the past few months, Uni-Fuels has focused on expanding its global bunkering and regulatory capabilities. On Jan 5, 2026, it announced the next phase of global expansion, which saw a +87.59% move. Subsequent news covered EU ETS compliance solutions, ISCC certification renewal, and regional build-out in Thailand, with mostly positive price reactions. Today’s FY2025 results, highlighting 70% revenue growth and higher volumes but a net loss, follow this growth-and-expansion narrative while exposing profitability and margin pressures.

8 terms
current ratiofinancial
"Metric | FY2025 | FY2024 ------------------------ Current Ratio | 1.35 | 1.30"
The current ratio measures a company’s short-term ability to pay upcoming bills by comparing assets that can be turned into cash within a year (like cash, inventory, and receivables) to obligations due within the same period. Investors use it like a household budget check — a ratio above 1 suggests the company has more short-term resources than immediate debts, while a very low or very high ratio can signal liquidity risk or inefficient use of assets.
Debt-to-equity ratio shows how much a company relies on borrowed money compared with the owners’ funds; think of it as the amount of debt owed for every dollar of owner’s savings. Investors use it to judge financial risk and flexibility — a higher number means more borrowing and potentially greater interest burden or vulnerability in downturns, while a lower number suggests a more conservative, less risky balance sheet.
Gross profit margin shows how much money a company keeps from sales after paying for the goods or services it sold. It’s like checking how much profit is left over from each dollar earned before covering other costs. A higher margin indicates the company makes more money from its sales, which helps assess its profitability and efficiency.
commercial paperfinancial
"issuance of its 3M USD Commercial Paper Series 001 and Series 002, both fully repaid"
Short-term IOUs issued by companies to raise cash quickly, sold to investors for a fixed, brief period (usually up to a few months) and repaid with interest at maturity. Think of it as a business borrowing from the public without putting up collateral, like a friend asking to borrow money for a few weeks with a promise to pay back a bit more. Investors watch commercial paper to gauge a company’s short-term funding health and credit risk; difficulty issuing it or rising yields can signal liquidity stress or higher perceived risk.
renewable energy directiveregulatory
"biofuels compliant with the European Union Renewable Energy Directive (“RED II”)"
A renewable energy directive is a government or regional rule that sets targets, timelines and basic requirements to increase the use of wind, solar, bioenergy and other clean power sources. Like a roadmap or rulebook that steers how energy is produced and paid for, it matters to investors because it shifts demand, subsidies, permitting and compliance costs—changing project economics, revenue prospects and the long‑term value and risks of energy companies and related suppliers.
isccregulatory
"ISCC EU and ISCC PLUS certifications from the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification"
ISCC (International Sustainability and Carbon Certification) is a global certification system that verifies sustainable sourcing, greenhouse gas accounting, and traceability across supply chains for biomass, biofuels and circular materials. For investors, ISCC acts like a trusted label—similar to a food safety or organic stamp—that reduces the risk a company’s sustainability claims are misleading, helps maintain market access and regulatory compliance, and can influence reputation, demand and long-term value.
eu etsregulatory
"in line with RED II, EU ETS and FuelEU Maritime requirements."
A carbon market run across the European Union that limits total greenhouse gas emissions by issuing a shrinking number of tradable permits called allowances. Think of it as a market for tickets to pollute: companies must hold a ticket for each ton emitted, and the price of those tickets affects costs for energy- and pollution-heavy businesses, creates value for low-carbon assets, and influences investment decisions, risk assessments and profit forecasts.
eu allowances (euas)regulatory
"will offer EU Allowances (EUAs) to help shipowners and operators comply"
EU allowances (EUAs) are tradable permits issued by the European Union that give a company the right to emit one tonne of carbon dioxide (or its equivalent). Think of them like tickets or coupons for pollution that companies must hold to cover their emissions; their scarcity and price affect operating costs for energy- and industry-heavy firms and create a market that investors can trade or use to hedge regulatory risk. Changes in EUA prices can therefore influence profits, investment decisions, and the value of related financial instruments.

FY2025 Financial Results
Revenues
Total revenues increased by US$108.7 million, or 70.0%, to US$263.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from US$155.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The increase was primarily driven by the expansion of our core sales of marine fuels segment, which continues to be the principal contributor to the Company’s financial performance.
Cost of revenues
Cost of revenues increased by approximately US$107.2 million, or 71.0%, to approximately US$259.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from approximately US$152.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily in line with the growth in our sales of marine fuels segment. The increase was mainly attributable to higher volumes of fuel procured to meet increased customer demand, as well as the associated costs of securing supply across an expanded global supply network.
Gross profit
Gross profit increased by approximately US$1.5 million, or 47%, to approximately US$4.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from approximately US$3.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The total gross profit margin was approximately 1.8% for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to approximately 2.1% in the prior year, representing a decrease of approximately 0.3%.
The increase in gross profit was primarily driven by higher sales volumes. The decrease in gross margin reflected competitive market conditions and the Company’s continued focus on expanding market share across existing and new markets. Notwithstanding the lower margin, the increase in absolute gross profit demonstrates the scalability of our business and our ability to grow earnings alongside revenue expansion.
Operating expenses
Selling and marketing expenses increased to US$1.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from US$0.7 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to the expansion of our sales activities. The increase was mainly attributable to higher personnel costs arising from additional hires in our sales and marketing function, as well as increased business travel and marketing initiatives undertaken to support customer engagement and business development efforts.
General and administrative expenses increased by US$2.7 million to US$5.0 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, from US$2.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, primarily due to the expansion of our operations. The increase was mainly attributable to higher personnel costs and expenses associated with the establishment of new offices. In addition, professional fees have increased, driven in part by capital markets activities and higher costs associated with maintaining our status as a listed company, including public company compliance and other administrative expenses associated with our growing operations.
Other (loss)/income
Other income decreased by US$93,100, from US$55,083 for the year ended December 31, 2024, to a loss of US$38,017 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The decrease was mainly due to interest expenses of US$97,737 incurred in 2025 in connection with short-term financing arrangements, partially offset by interest income, compared to no such financing costs in 2024.
(Loss)/Income before income taxes
We recorded a loss before income taxes of US$1.6 million for the year ended December 31, 2025, compared to income before income taxes of US$0.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2024. The change was primarily driven by higher operating expenses, particularly the increase in general and administrative expenses as discussed above, which more than offset the growth in gross profit during the year.
Income tax expense
Income tax expense increased from US$98,000 for the year ended December 31, 2024, to US$134,000 for the year ended December 31, 2025. The increase was a result of the increase in profit before tax generated by our Singapore subsidiary.
Net (loss)/income
As a result of the foregoing factors, we incurred a net loss of US$1.8 million from net income of US$0.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2024.
