What the Analysts think about BP
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for British Petroleum stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
BP outperformed Q2 profit forecasts, delivering an underlying replacement cost profit of $2.4 billion, boosting its quarterly dividend by 4% to 8.32 cents, and maintaining a $750 million share buyback program, underscoring strong cash flow and a commitment to shareholder returns (Reuters).
BP’s largest oil and gas discovery in 25 years in Brazil’s Santos basin could meaningfully extend its upstream reserve life, as the Bumerangue block is expected to become a new production hub supporting future growth (Reuters).
The owners of the Shah Deniz gas field, led by BP, have approved a $2.9 billion investment to increase output by 50 billion cubic metres of gas and 25 million barrels of condensate, helping BP achieve its goal of raising upstream production to 2.3–2.5 million barrels of oil equivalent per day by 2030 (Reuters).
Despite surpassing Q2 expectations, BP’s underlying replacement cost profit dropped to $2.4 billion, down 14% from $2.8 billion a year earlier, highlighting margin pressure from weaker commodity prices (Reuters).
BP’s strategic reset in February—focusing on spending cuts and $20 billion in asset sales—has yet to restore investor confidence. Shares have fallen 18% since the announcement, and activist Elliott Management is pressing for deeper cuts to BP’s $3 billion annual buyback program to address rising debt (Reuters).
Short-term Brent crude price forecasts, expected to decline from $68 per barrel in 2025 to $51 in 2026, have led BP to reduce its buybacks and plan over 7,000 job cuts as part of cost-saving measures, demonstrating near-term operational and financial challenges (Reuters).
