Wintershall makes up for weaker specialty margins at BASF
BASF (BASFn.DE) eked out a 5 percent gain in operating profit, thanks to an oil and gas unit that it is seeking to transfer into a joint venture and list separately, while high feedstock costs squeezed margins at its core specialty chemicals units. BASF's more complex, specialty products - which new chief executive Martin Brudermueller pins his hopes on for more stable future growth - have suffered from higher costs of petrochemical precursor materials, which are expensive due to supply bottlenecks and strong industrial demand. Baader Helvea analyst Markus Mayer said earnings at the group's specialty chemicals and farm pesticides units were significantly below expectations, which have been stoked by strong growth at domestic rivals Evonik (EVKn.DE) and Covestro (1COV.DE).
