Buriram Sugar Public Company Limited

World sugar prices have recovered to over 17 cents per pound, up from a low of around 13 cents per pound in April 2026, due to tight supply from El Niño drought and India's plan to consider reducing or abolishing its 100% sugar import tax to increase domestic supply. Analysts at Innovest X Securities are positive on sugar stocks, especially KSL, KBS, and KTIS, which will benefit from higher selling prices. Meanwhile, BRR expects cane crushing volume for 2026/27 to increase to 2.5-2.6 million tons from 2.2 million tons last year, and expects the second half of the year to continue growing from the first half, supported by expanding demand and a weaker baht.

Buriram Sugar Public Company Limited, or BRR, said global sugar prices are beginning to show signs of recovery, which will support its business direction in the second half of the year. In the second quarter of 2026, the company posted revenue from sales and services of 1.745 billion baht, up 11.54 percent from the same period last year. However, the average selling price of sugar per tonne fell 21.60 percent and the average selling price of molasses fell 26.44 percent, resulting in a net loss of 2.83 million baht for the second quarter of 2026. For the first six months, BRR still recorded a net profit of 238.62 million baht. Chief Executive Officer Anan Tangtrongvechakit said operating results from the power plant business and a higher proportion of refinery products helped support performance. The company will continue to manage costs, expand non-sugar businesses including power plants, alternative energy, fertiliser, and packaging from bagasse, while upgrading the sugar business through its refinery to add value and reduce reliance on sugar revenue alone.
