BP Share Price (BP.)

BP plc will continue to pump out “prolific” natural gas volumes from the Haynesville Shale as hedges are in place pricing the supply at around $4.00/Mcf through this year, CEO Murray Auchincloss said Tuesday.

For UBS, however, the main takeaway from the update concerned the company’s confidence in its 2025 earnings guidance, which currently sits 16% above the City consensus.

Reiterating its buy rating, the bank highlighted the potential for earnings and dividend growth and said the valuation looked undemanding at a 10% discount versus peers.

What has been awarded is the maximum they can receive which is highly unlikely - they haven’t just been handed that amount today. Do your research before spouting nonsense please

The share buybacks improve the EPS. Nothing improved in the business, but bonus measure delivered. Easy work if you can get.

Obscene ….they already trouser more than ‘cancer surgeon salaries’ for the very short period they have been learning the ropes around the complexities of ‘the counting of the BP beans’.

Not to worry - the BoD can just issue a new block of shares to make up the deficits.

What was all this buyback smokescreen ?

Thank heavens these extra extra bonus awards are performance related.

What performance KPI, one wonders ?
