| 27.06.25 05:05:32 | BP (LON:BP. shareholders incur further losses as stock declines 6.1% this week, taking one-year losses to 17% | |
| Passive investing in an index fund is a good way to ensure your own returns roughly match the overall market. But if you buy individual stocks, you can do both better or worse than that. Unfortunately the BP p.l.c. (LON:BP.) share price slid 22% over twelve months. That contrasts poorly with the market return of 8.9%. Longer term shareholders haven't suffered as badly, since the stock is down a comparatively less painful 4.9% in three years. Furthermore, it's down 15% in about a quarter. That's not much fun for holders. After losing 6.1% this past week, it's worth investigating the company's fundamentals to see what we can infer from past performance. We've found 21 US stocks that are forecast to pay a dividend yield of over 6% next year. See the full list for free. There is no denying that markets are sometimes efficient, but prices do not always reflect underlying business performance. One way to examine how market sentiment has changed over time is to look at the interaction between a company's share price and its earnings per share (EPS). During the last year BP saw its earnings per share drop below zero. Buyers no doubt think it's a temporary situation, but those with a nose for quality have low tolerance for losses. Of course, if the company can turn the situation around, investors will likely profit. You can see how EPS has changed over time in the image below (click on the chart to see the exact values).LSE:BP. Earnings Per Share Growth June 27th 2025 We like that insiders have been buying shares in the last twelve months. Having said that, most people consider earnings and revenue growth trends to be a more meaningful guide to the business. Before buying or selling a stock, we always recommend a close examination of historic growth trends, available here.. What About Dividends? When looking at investment returns, it is important to consider the difference between total shareholder return (TSR) and share price return. The TSR incorporates the value of any spin-offs or discounted capital raisings, along with any dividends, based on the assumption that the dividends are reinvested. It's fair to say that the TSR gives a more complete picture for stocks that pay a dividend. In the case of BP, it has a TSR of -17% for the last 1 year. That exceeds its share price return that we previously mentioned. And there's no prize for guessing that the dividend payments largely explain the divergence! A Different Perspective BP shareholders are down 17% for the year (even including dividends), but the market itself is up 8.9%. However, keep in mind that even the best stocks will sometimes underperform the market over a twelve month period. Longer term investors wouldn't be so upset, since they would have made 9%, each year, over five years. If the fundamental data continues to indicate long term sustainable growth, the current sell-off could be an opportunity worth considering. I find it very interesting to look at share price over the long term as a proxy for business performance. But to truly gain insight, we need to consider other information, too. Even so, be aware that BP is showing 2 warning signs in our investment analysis, you should know about... Story Continues BP is not the only stock that insiders are buying.

| 26.06.25 13:17:59 | Shell Says No Plan to Make Offer for BP | |
| This article was first published on Rigzone here Shell PLC on Thursday dismissed media reports it could be intending to approach smaller rival BP PLC for a potential merger. Shell “has not been actively considering making an offer for BP and confirms it has not made an approach to, and no talks have taken place with BP with regards to a possible offer”, it said in an online statement. “This is a statement to which Rule 2.8 of the Code applies and accordingly Shell confirms it has no intention of making an offer for BP”, Shell said. It was referring to restrictions imposed by the United Kingdom Takeover Code on an entity that has made a statement of not intending to make an offer for a company. “We remain focused on delivering more value with less emissions through performance, discipline and simplification”, Shell said. However, it added, “Under Note 2 on Rule 2.8 of the Code, Shell reserves the right to set the restrictions in Rule 2.8 aside in the following circumstances: with the agreement of the board of BP; if a third party announces a firm intention to make an offer for BP; if BP announces a Rule 9 waiver or a reverse takeover; and if there has been a material change of circumstances (as determined by the Takeover Panel)”. Rigzone emailed a comment request to BP. Take control of your future. Search THOUSANDS of Oil & Gas jobs on Rigzone.com Search Now >> Earlier on Thursday The Wall Street Journal cited unnamed people familiar with the matter as saying Shell was holding “early-stage talks” with BP. “Talks between company representatives are active, the people said, and BP is considering the approach carefully”, the Journal reported. “Potential terms of any deal couldn’t be learned and a tie-up is far from certain, the people familiar with the matter warned”, it added. “Bankers working on behalf of the companies have been engaged in the discussions, which are moving slowly, the people said”. Earlier in May Bloomberg reported, citing unnamed sources, that Shell was consulting advisers on a potential acquisition of BP but that it was “waiting for further stock and oil price declines before deciding whether to pursue a bid”. According to Bloomberg’s sources, Shell may favor share buybacks and bolt-on acquisitions over a megamerger. A Shell spokesperson told Bloomberg then, “As we have said many times before, we are sharply focused on capturing the value in Shell through continuing to focus on performance, discipline and simplification”.

| 20.06.25 00:00:00 | Why Big Oil Isn’t Afraid of Peak Oil Demand | |
| Big Oil firms expect global oil demand to stop growing at some point early next decade. But the decline will be very slow and gradual and will look more like a plateau than a downward spiral. The world’s biggest international oil and gas companies have started to acknowledge that demand growth could slow or stop within a decade. But these firms keep pumping oil and gas more than they did earlier this decade as they expect that oil demand – regardless of a peak – isn’t going anywhere. Big Oil’s Big Pivot Despite the headline-grabbing surge in renewable energy capacity, solar and wind cannot replace fossil fuels in many industrial processes and production while demand for petrochemicals drives increased oil and gas consumption. The strategic shift of BP and Shell from early this decade to boost investments in renewables while scaling back oil production lasted only a couple of years. Europe’s Big Oil found out firsthand that the renewables business isn’t bringing the profits that the core oil and gas business is generating. Faced with the difficult task of rewarding shareholders with attractive yields and payouts and stopping the investor outflow from the industry, and with an energy crisis with soaring oil and gas prices, Shell and BP drastically scaled on their ambitions in renewables and shifted their focus on oil and gas again. Equinor of Norway, where electric vehicles hold an enormous market share and power comes from hydro and wind, also reduced investments in renewables, in order to boost returns for shareholders and adapt to an uneven energy transition. The Norwegian major, which dropped ‘oil’ from its name and rebranded to Equinor seven years ago with more renewables business in mind, acknowledged that market conditions in the clean energy sector have changed and the energy transition is going forward with an uncertain and uneven pace. At the same time, Equinor, which now produces a large part of the gas going to Europe via pipelines, expects to keep a high level of oil and gas production in Norway “all the way to 2035.” “What we are working on is to make sure that we are able to squeeze every molecule out of the Norwegian continental shelf,” chief executive Anders Opedal told the Financial Times. “So we have to drill around 100 wells a year for the next decade.” Low returns from higher-cost renewables and the uncertain pace of the transition amid the push for security of supply have had European majors scale back plans and investments in renewables and look to grow low-cost lower-carbon oil and gas production. Story Continues In the U.S., ExxonMobil and Chevron didn’t have to pivot as they weren’t deep into renewable energy even before the 2022-2023 energy crisis and soaring prices. Oil Isn’t Going Anywhere Unlike the International Energy Agency (IEA), which has just doubled down on its forecast of peak oil demand by the end of this decade, Big Oil companies don’t see any peak by 2030. Some have put a peak at some point in the 2030s, but all say that oil and gas will remain essential for global economic growth and development in 2050. “Under any credible scenario, oil and natural gas remain essential,” ExxonMobil says in its latest Global Outlook to 2050. The U.S. supermajor also believes that “Lower-carbon technology needs policy support to grow rapidly but ultimately must be supported by market forces.” In 2050, more than 50% of global energy demand will still be met by oil and natural gas, Exxon reckons. “The world will be different in 2050, but the need to provide the reliable, affordable energy that drives economic prosperity and better living standards, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions, will remain just as critical as it is today,” it says. Shell’s CEO Wael Sawan has said that reducing global oil and gas production would be “dangerous and irresponsible” as the world still needs those hydrocarbons. In its 2025 Energy Security Scenarios, Shell sees oil demand likely to grow by 3?5 million barrels per day (bpd) into the early 2030s, with a long but slow decline after that as petroleum remains an affordable and convenient fuel, particularly in transport, and an important feedstock for the petrochemical industry. In all three scenarios analyzed by Shell, upstream investment of around $600 billion a year “will be required for decades to come as the rate of depletion of oil and gas fields is two to three times the potential future annual declines in demand.” In the most-discussed strategy reset this year, BP slashed spending on clean energy and boosted upstream investments. The UK-based supermajor will aim for 10 new major oil and gas projects to start up by the end of 2027, and a further 8–10 projects by the end of 2030. Production is also expected to grow: to 2.3–2.5 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (boed) in 2030, with capacity to increase to 2035. That’s a stark departure from BP’s previous strategy to lower oil and gas output by 2030. “We will grow upstream investment and production to allow us to produce high margin energy for years to come,” CEO Murray Auchincloss said. Whenever peak oil demand occurs, it will not be a steep downhill in global consumption—it will be a long plateau with a soft decline afterward, Big Oil says. A steep drop could only occur if there is an aggressive political push toward net-zero emissions by 2050, Shell’s head of scenario planning, Laszlo Varro, told FT. But such a push would be “significantly outside society’s current comfort zone.” By Tsvetana Paraskova for Oilprice.com More Top Reads From Oilprice.com Middle East Conflict Sparks Exodus of Foreign Oil Personnel The Permian Basin is Fueling America's Electric Future The Physics of Collapse: How to Adapt to Economic Shifts Read this article on OilPrice.com View Comments |
