On September 1, Petroleo Brasileiro SA Petrobras rose 3.15% in regular trading, trading at $19.975/share, with turnover of $57.92 million, extending its recent rebound trend.
On the news front, the rally was driven by a combination of robust first-half financial results and a jump in crude oil prices. The company reported H1 net income attributable to shareholders of $16.627 billion, surging 55.3% year-over-year, on total revenue of $57.14 billion, up 35.7%. Q2 EPS came in at $1.62, beating the consensus estimate of $1.36 by 19.12%. On the production side, June output hit an all-time record, and the CEO previously noted Q2 oil production exceeded targets by 200,000 barrels per day, with mature field decline rates reduced from 12% to 4%. Meanwhile, escalating U.S.-Iran tensions pushed Brent crude back above $90 per barrel, further lifting oil equities. The company also demonstrated financial discipline by redeeming approximately $1 billion in bonds ahead of schedule and approved a $1.2 billion biorefining investment at its Presidente Bernardes refinery.
