加拿大皇家银行资本市场表示,强劲的燃油利润率将支撑便利店运营商第一季度业绩。

By

-- 加拿大皇家银行资本市场(RBC Capital Markets)分析师周一在一份报告中指出,稳健的燃油利润率和稳定的消费者需求支撑了便利店运营商,预计其第一季度业绩将表现良好。 尽管燃油价格上涨、伊朗冲突引发的地缘政治紧张局势以及消费者日益注重性价比,该公司仍对该行业保持乐观展望。 分析师表示:“尽管面临地缘政治风险加剧、伊朗冲突导致原油价格高企以及消费者持续追求性价比的背景下,汽油利润率的相对强势、长期稳定的需求记录以及从第四季度延续到第一季度的增长势头,都支撑了我们对该行业的积极看法。” 分析师指出,从历史经验来看,油价和燃油价格的波动为更成熟的运营商提供了机会,使其能够获得高于行业平均水平的汽油利润率溢价,而燃油利润率在过去十年中持续改善。 分析师表示:“尽管近期汽油价格飙升,但零售价格仍维持在2023/2024年的峰值水平,远低于俄罗斯入侵乌克兰后的峰值水平。” 然而,汽油需求持续低于新冠疫情前的水平,分析师认为,伊朗冲突后原油价格的波动加剧了汽油需求。 分析师表示:“燃料需求持续低于疫情前的水平,这反映了生活方式和通勤模式的结构性转变、生活成本的上升,以及近期地缘政治因素导致的汽油价格飙升所带来的需求弹性。” 加拿大皇家银行(RBC)预测,美国第一季度Alimentation Couche-Tard汽油的利润率为每加仑45.75美分,比行业同期平均水平高出约8美分/加仑。分析师表示,该预测高于过去八个季度溢价区间的上限(此前区间为每加仑3美分至6美分),反映出地缘政治背景下燃油价格的显著波动。 加拿大皇家银行(RBC)预测凯西便利店(Casey's,CASY)的利润率为每加仑39美分,而墨菲美国公司(Murphy USA,MUSA)的零售利润率和综合利润率预计分别为每加仑24.5美分和32.7美分。

Middle East War to Push Up Food Costs, World Bank Says

The World Bank, on Tuesday, warned the Middle East conflict is set to drive up global food costs, as surging energy prices lift fertilizer prices and strain agricultural output.Fertilizer prices are projected to rise 31% in 2026, including a sharp increase in urea prices, reducing affordability for farmers and threatening crop yields, the bank said.The bank added that up to 45 million more people are at risk of being pushed into acute food insecurity this year if the conflict persists, as higher input costs ripple through global food supply chains.The World Bank said the shock highlights how energy disruptions are feeding into food inflation, with the poorest populations the most exposed to rising costs.
