What the Analysts think about Imperial Oil
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Imperial Oil stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Imperial Oil stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Higher crude prices drove a sharp earnings rebound: second-quarter net income more than doubled year on year and operating cash flow reached C$2.7 billion. That stronger cash generation gives Imperial more room to fund investment and shareholder returns. (Reuters, Imperial Oil)
Imperial paid C$421 million in dividends in Q2 and plans to accelerate share repurchases under a programme covering up to 5% of its shares. It has also raised its annual dividend for 31 consecutive years. (Imperial Oil, Imperial Oil)
A Kearl secondary-recovery project is nearing start-up, with production expected in the fourth quarter of 2026. It aims to recover more bitumen from ore already processed, offering a route to incremental output without relying only on new large-scale developments. (The Motley Fool)
Refinery operations have been a weak spot: Q2 throughput was 331,000 barrels a day at 76% utilisation, and Imperial cut its 2026 throughput forecast by about 6% after unplanned downtime and a Strathcona rail-logistics problem. That reduces the volume available to support downstream earnings until operations recover. (Reuters, Morningstar DBRS)
Upstream production fell to 414,000 barrels of oil equivalent a day in Q2 from 427,000 a year earlier, with lower output at Kearl and Syncrude. Management expects 2026 production towards the low end of its guidance range, leaving near-term volumes vulnerable to operating setbacks. (Reuters, The Motley Fool)
Imperial’s oil-sands-heavy portfolio faces environmental compliance and emissions-cost pressures, according to credit analysts. The proposed Pathways carbon-capture project adds execution and funding uncertainty, with recent reporting putting its cost at about C$30 billion, up from an earlier C$16.5 billion estimate.
