據(jù)8月3日BP官網(wǎng)報道，BP業(yè)績強勁，并在不斷改善的環(huán)境中持續(xù)減少凈債務(wù)，公司在有紀律的財務(wù)框架內(nèi)增長彈性股息。2021年上半年從盈余現(xiàn)金流中計劃回購14億美元股票。4個重大項目的啟動、太陽能和便利設(shè)施的增長將進一步推動公司戰(zhàn)略開展。

　　一是強勁的業(yè)績和凈債務(wù)減少

　　公司第二季度的運營表現(xiàn)很有彈性，有四個主要項目啟動，經(jīng)營業(yè)績表現(xiàn)強勁，包括便利設(shè)施毛利率的實質(zhì)性增長，與2019年相比，運行節(jié)省了25億美元的現(xiàn)金成本。

　　二季度報告利潤為31億美元，而2021年第一季度的利潤為47億美元。

　　基礎(chǔ)重置成本利潤為28億美元，而上一季度為26億美元。這一結(jié)果受到油價上漲的推動，而天然氣營銷和交易的下降抵消了利潤率的上升。

　　54億美元的營運現(xiàn)金流包括墨西哥灣漏油支付的稅前12億美元和5億美元的營運資本（在調(diào)整存貨持有收益和公允價值會計影響后）。

　　二是凈債務(wù)在第二季度末下降到327億美元。

　　在對用于投資評估和使用價值減值測試的價格假設(shè)進行年度審查后，BP對2030年布倫特原油價格的預(yù)期提高了，反映出預(yù)期的供應(yīng)限制，而長遠預(yù)期有所降低，因為BP預(yù)計向低碳經(jīng)濟轉(zhuǎn)型的步伐將加快。

　　由于這些假設(shè)的改變，報告的結(jié)果包括30億美元的稅前凈減值恢復(fù)。

　　三是在嚴格的財務(wù)框架內(nèi)實現(xiàn)分銷增長。

　　在BP嚴謹?shù)呢攧?wù)框架內(nèi)，彈性派息是其首要任務(wù)。

　　董事會宣布將第二季度普通股股息提高4%，至5.46美分，以反映業(yè)務(wù)的基本表現(xiàn)、環(huán)境前景的改善、對資產(chǎn)負債表的信心以及股份回購計劃的啟動。這一增長將在2021-2025年布倫特原油平均現(xiàn)款結(jié)存價格在40美元/桶，菜粕主力(RMM)約為11美元/桶，Henry Hub約為3美元/ 百萬英熱的范圍內(nèi)實現(xiàn)。

　　在達到凈債務(wù)350億美元的目標(biāo)后，BP第二季度產(chǎn)生了7億美元的盈余現(xiàn)金流，上半年產(chǎn)生了24億美元。考慮到上半年產(chǎn)生的盈余現(xiàn)金流，BP計劃在2021年第三季度業(yè)績公布前回購14億美元的股票。2021年，在保持較高投資級信用評級的前提下，董事會仍致力于將剩余現(xiàn)金流的60%用于股票回購，并計劃將剩余的40%用于繼續(xù)加強資產(chǎn)負債表。

　　根據(jù)英國石油公司目前的預(yù)測，在布倫特原油每桶60美元左右的情況下，根據(jù)董事會每個季度的決定，英國石油公司預(yù)計每個季度能夠回購約10億美元，并有能力每年將普通股股息增加約4%，到2025年。財務(wù)框架內(nèi)的其他要素保持不變。

　　董事會在設(shè)定每股股息和每季度股票回購時，將考慮現(xiàn)金流盈余的累積水平及前景、現(xiàn)金平衡點及維持較高的投資級信用評級等因素。

　　英國石油預(yù)計將在公布第三季度業(yè)績時概述第四季度股票回購計劃。

　　四是向綜合能源公司轉(zhuǎn)型的出現(xiàn)重大進展

　　自一年前概述其新戰(zhàn)略以來，英國石油公司在向IEC轉(zhuǎn)型方面取得了巨大進展。已經(jīng)交付了8個重大項目，建設(shè)了21千兆瓦的可再生能源管道，增長了便利設(shè)施和電氣化。資產(chǎn)重組，達到了100億美元的撤資收益，加強了財務(wù)實力，并開始股票回購。

　　今年第二季度，印度、埃及、安哥拉和墨西哥灣的四個主要項目開始投產(chǎn)。

　　英國石油繼續(xù)大幅擴大其可再生能源管道，在美國購買了一條9吉瓦的太陽能開發(fā)管道。Lightsource bp也繼續(xù)擴張，增長在葡萄牙，西班牙，希臘和澳大利亞的業(yè)務(wù)。英國石油公司證實，它打算與英格蘭風(fēng)力發(fā)電公司（EnBW）在蘇格蘭和挪威分別與斯塔特卡夫公司（Statkraft）和阿克爾公司（Aker）競購海上風(fēng)電租約。

　　英國石油在倫敦開設(shè)了英國首個車隊專用電動汽車快速充電中心，這是旨在面向歐洲各城市的一系列項目中的第一個。在美國，該公司同意全面擁有桑頓公司（thornton）的業(yè)務(wù)，該業(yè)務(wù)預(yù)計將于2021年第三季度完成，使bp成為美國中西部領(lǐng)先的便利店運營商。

　　BP首席執(zhí)行官伯納德·魯尼表示：“我們已經(jīng)實現(xiàn)了英國石油成為綜合能源公司的戰(zhàn)略一年，并且取得了良好的進展。在以有紀律的方式投資未來的同時，又取得了一個季度的強勁業(yè)績。基于我們業(yè)務(wù)的基本表現(xiàn)、環(huán)境前景的改善以及對我們資產(chǎn)負債表的信心，我們將普通股的彈性股息提高4%，此外，我們將從上半年的盈余現(xiàn)金流中回購14億美元。若油價在平均每桶60美元左右，我們預(yù)計每個季度能夠回購約10億美元，并有能力每年將普通股股息增加約4%，直至2025年。這表明我們在為股東創(chuàng)造價值的同時，在向著未來轉(zhuǎn)型的同時，我們?nèi)栽诶^續(xù)努力。”

　　Second quarter and half year 2021

　　Strong results and continued net debt reduction in an improving environment

　　Growth of resilient dividend within disciplined financial frame

　　Executing $1.4 billion buybacks from first half 2021 surplus cash flow

　　Further strategic progress with 4 major project start-ups, growth in solar and convenience

　　Strong results and continued net debt reduction in an improving environment

　　Operating performance was resilient in the second quarter with four major project* start-ups, strong momentum in the customers business, including material growth in convenience gross margin*, and delivery of $2.5 billion of cash costs* savings on a run-rate basis relative to 2019, around six months earlier than targeted.

　　Reported profit for the quarter was $3.1 billion, compared with $4.7 billion for the first quarter 2021.

　　Underlying replacement cost profit* was $2.8 billion, compared with $2.6 billion for the previous quarter. This result was driven by higher oil prices and margins offset by a lower result in gas marketing and trading.

　　Operating cash flow* of $5.4 billion includes $1.2 billion pre-tax of Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments within a working capital* build of $0.5 billion (after adjusting for inventory holding gains and fair value accounting effects).

　　Net debt* fell to $32.7 billion at the end of the second quarter.

　　Following the annual review of price assumptions used for investment appraisal and value-in-use impairment testing, bp's Brent oil price assumption to 2030 is increased to reflect expected supply constraints, while longer-term assumptions are lowered as bp expects an acceleration of the pace of transition to a low carbon economy.

　　As a result of these changed assumptions, the reported result includes a pre-tax net impairment reversal of $3.0 billion.

　　Distribution growth within disciplined financial frame

　　A resilient dividend is bp's first priority within its disciplined financial frame.

　　Reflecting the underlying performance of the business, an improving outlook for the environment, confidence in our balance sheet and commencement of the share buyback programme, the board has announced an increase in the second quarter dividend of 4% to 5.46 cents per ordinary share. This increase is accommodated within a 2021-5 average cash balance point* of around $40 per barrel Brent, $11 per barrel RMM and $3 per mmBtu Henry Hub (all 2020 real).

　　bp generated surplus cash flow* of $0.7 billion in the second quarter and $2.4 billion in the first half after having reached its net debt target of $35 billion. Taking into account surplus cash flow* generated in the first half of the year, bp intends to execute a share buyback of $1.4 billion prior to announcing its third quarter 2021 results. For 2021, and subject to maintaining a strong investment grade credit rating, the board remains committed to using 60% of surplus cash flow for share buybacks and plans to allocate the remaining 40% to continue strengthening the balance sheet.

　　On average, based on bp’s current forecasts, at around $60 per barrel Brent and subject to the board's discretion each quarter, bp expects to be able to deliver buybacks of around $1.0 billion per quarter and have capacity for an annual increase in the dividend per ordinary share of around 4%, through 2025. Other elements of the financial frame are unchanged.

　　The board will take into account factors including the cumulative level of and outlook for surplus cash flow, the cash balance point and the maintenance of a strong investment grade credit rating in setting the dividend per ordinary share and the buyback each quarter.

　　bp expects to outline plans for the fourth-quarter share buyback at the time of its third quarter results.

　　Strong progress in our transformation to an integrated energy company

　　Since outlining its new strategy a year ago, bp has made strong progress in its transformation to an IEC. It has delivered 8 major projects*, built a 21GW renewable pipeline, grown convenience and electrification, reorganized, reached over $10 billion of divestment proceeds, strengthened the financial frame and begun share buybacks.

　　Four major projects began production in the second quarter – in India, Egypt, Angola and the Gulf of Mexico.

　　bp has continued to significantly expand its renewables pipeline, buying a 9GW solar development pipeline in the US. Lightsource bp also continued to expand, growing in Portugal, Spain, Greece and Australia. bp confirmed its intention to bid for offshore wind leases in Scotland with EnBW and in Norway with Statkraft and Aker.

　　bp opened the UK’s first fleet-dedicated EV rapid charging hub in London, the first of a series intended for cities across Europe. In the US, bp agreed to take full ownership of the Thorntons business, which is expected to complete in the third quarter of 2021, positioning bp to be a leading convenience operator in the Midwest US.

　　Bernard Looney,chief executive officer said, we are a year into executing bp's strategy to become an integrated energy company and are making good progress - delivering another quarter of strong performance while investing for the future in a disciplined way. based on the underlying performance of our business, an improving outlook for the environment and confidence in our balance sheet, we are increasing our resilient dividend by 4% per ordinary share and in addition, we are commencing a buyback of $1.4 billion from first half surplus cash flow. On average at around $60 per barrel, we expect to be able to deliver buybacks of around $1.0 billion per quarter and to have capacity for an annual increase in the dividend per ordinary share of around 4%, through 2025. This shows we continue to perform while transforming bp - generating value for our shareholders today while we transition the company for the future.
