受中东冲突带来的不利影响,SLB业绩喜忧参半。

-- 斯隆-凯特琳石油公司 (SLB) 周五公布了喜忧参半的第一季度业绩,同比表现不佳,反映出中东冲突带来的不利影响。 这家油田服务公司截至3月份的季度调整后每股收益从去年同期的0.72美元降至0.52美元,而FactSet调查的分析师预期为0.51美元。营收增长3%至87.2亿美元,超过华尔街预期的86.3亿美元。 首席执行官奥利维尔·勒佩什在一份声明中表示:“由于中东地区广泛的动荡影响了我们的业务,今年开局充满挑战。油井建设和油藏性能业务受到的影响最为显著,因为SLB响应客户为保障人员和设施安全而采取的措施,暂停了在多个国家的作业。” 油井建设业务的营收同比下降6%至28亿美元,但仍高于市场普遍预期的26.2亿美元。油藏性能业务的营收下降6%至15.9亿美元。数字业务收入增长9%,而生产系统业务收入飙升23%,达到35.1亿美元。 “除中东市场外,其他所有市场的收入均同比增长,这主要得益于我们针对ChampionX、数字业务和数据中心解决方案采取的战略举措,”Le Peuch表示。SLB(前身为斯伦贝谢)去年收购了竞争对手ChampionX。 在经历了数周的敌对行动后,美国和伊朗之间达成的长期停火协议仍在维持。美国总统唐纳德·特朗普周四表示,以色列和黎巴嫩之间的停火协议也将延长。以色列与黎巴嫩真主党之间的冲突一直是美伊和平努力的症结之一。 “我们进入2026年时预计,全球液体供需将在2026年及之后逐步恢复平衡,”Le Peuch表示。“然而,中东冲突加速了这一平衡进程,同时也暴露了全球能源供应链的关键脆弱性。” SLB在纽约证券交易所上市的股票周五上涨2.4%。该股今年以来已累计上涨46%。 “我们预计冲突后流动性较强的大宗商品价格将高于冲突前水平,”Le Peuch表示。“这反映了基础设施受损、生产受到影响以及地缘政治风险溢价造成的短期供应中断。”

Research Alert: CFRA Keeps Hold Opinion On Shares Of Otis Worldwide Corporation

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We cut our 12-month target to $90 from $100 following Q1 earnings, valuing OTIS shares at 19.6x our 2027 EPS outlook of $4.58 (down from $4.70; 2026 EPS view updated to $4.18 from $4.25), a modest discount to industrial machinery peers' and OTIS's five-year forward multiple average given unclear timing of ongoing margin headwinds. Service margins were disappointing in Q1 (contracting 160 bps to 23%) amid higher labor and material costs that came in above pricing. Weakness in China has yet to stabilize, though as noted in the past, this represents a shrinking area of OTIS's portfolio and will have a more limited effect going forward. Overall, the latest quarter was more of the same (China weakness/New Equipment decline), though with the added concern of margin quality being pressured within Service - the core profit driver for OTIS overall. While efforts to shore up profitability are underway, we see timing of recovery being uncertain.

Saudi Shares Start Week Higher; US-Iran Peace Talks Canceled

The Tadawul All Share Index closed Sunday 0.11% higher as investors assessed the latest updates regarding the conflict in the Middle East.US President Donald Trump said on his Truth Social account that the Pakistani trip for his envoys, Steve Witkoff and Jared Kushner, was canceled. The announcement dimmed the hopes for peace talks between Iran and the US to happen any time soon.Further to this, Israel launched an attack in Lebanon on April 25. The strikes, which targeted Hezbollah, resulted in four casualties and facility damage in Southern Lebanon.Back at home, Rabigh Refining and Petrochemical (SASE:2380), d/b/a Petro Rabigh, and Thob Al Aseel (SASE:4012) posted their financial results for the three months ended March 31. Petro Rabigh emerged from a loss in the first quarter, while Thob Al Aseel logged a higher net profit and revenue."The reason for net profit reported during the current quarter compared to a net loss recorded in the same quarter of last year was primarily attributable to improved product margins resulting from stronger refined product pricing and higher sales volumes," Petro Rabigh said in its report.Petro Rabigh rose 10% at closing, while Thob Al Aseel ticked down 1.59%.Meanwhile, the local calendar will be mostly empty except for the kingdom's preliminary figures for its GDP growth rate for the first quarter and the M3 money supply and private bank lending data for March on Thursday.

Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Hold Rating On Shares Of United Rentals Inc.

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We lift our 12-month target price to $1,100 from $950 following a strong first quarter, valuing shares at 20.5x our 2027 EPS outlook of $54.28 (in line with previous estimate; 2026 EPS also in line). We believe a higher multiple is justified given URI's firming market leadership within an expanding rental equipment industry. A robust Q1 beat enabled URI to raise its full-year revenue guidance to $16.9B-$17.4B and adjusted EBITDA to $7.625B-$7.875B, citing momentum heading into a busy season. With leverage well below historical levels, we believe accretive M&A deals could serve as a potential catalyst for additional guidance increases. Margin compression has been a sticky issue for URI, but Q1 indicated that pricing may have turned around and that headwinds are starting to ease as quarterly results begin to lap when tariff-related inflation began to pick-up. We remain cautious on margins, though are encouraged by signs of stabilization. New project activity is likely supporting pricing trends, in our view.
