Lipigas stock: First-half EBITDA rises 14.3 percent

Empresas Lipigas posted stronger operating results in the first half of 2026, with EBITDA rising 14.3 percent to 93,873 million Chilean pesos, according to IT Boltwise on November 10. The figures cover the six months ended in the first half of 2026 and point to stronger operating leverage in the gas business.

Operating Gains Outpace Revenue

Revenue increased 1.4 percent to 467,332 million Chilean pesos, while gas sales rose 4.1 percent to 458,746 LPG-equivalent tons. Gross profit advanced 13.5 percent to 166,256 million Chilean pesos, and operating income gained 15.4 percent to 62,192 million Chilean pesos.

Profit attributable to owners rose 14.8 percent to 39,488 million Chilean pesos. Total profit after tax increased 15.7 percent to 40,044 million Chilean pesos, although lower non-operating income and higher taxes partly restrained the overall result.

Regional Expansion Remains Central

Lipigas generates business across Chile, Colombia and Peru, with operations spanning LPG, natural gas and related energy logistics. During the first half, markets outside Chile accounted for 24 percent of cumulative EBITDA and 39 percent of sales volume, according to the report cited by IT Boltwise.

The company has also outlined a 2030 strategy focused on gas, renewable gases, electric services and logistics. Its targets include raising the share of EBITDA generated outside Chile to 25 percent and obtaining 10 percent of EBITDA from businesses beyond traditional gas operations.

Next Results Date In Focus

The next scheduled milestone is Lipigas' third-quarter 2026 report on November 19. Investors will be watching whether the relationship between volume growth, gross profit and operating income remains favorable as the year progresses.
