-- 意大利埃尼集团 (ENI.MI) 大幅提高了拟议的股票回购计划,并将 2026 年现金流预期上调 20%,这主要得益于其第一季度强劲的财务表现,尽管能源市场动荡且大宗商品价格波动。 这家意大利能源集团周五公布,截至 3 月 31 日的三个月内,总收入为 200.6 亿欧元,高于去年同期的 191.9 亿欧元。同期营业收入也从 225.7 亿欧元增至 229.6 亿欧元。 另一方面,归属于股东的调整后净利润从 14.1 亿欧元降至 13 亿欧元,主要原因是勘探和生产业务税前利润的地域分布更加合理,导致税率降低。 加拿大皇家银行资本市场 (RBC Capital Markets) 的分析师将埃尼集团第一季度的业绩描述为“喜忧参半”,但同时指出该集团的运营势头依然强劲。 “展望未来,得益于我们高质量且多元化的资产组合,我们拥有显著的灵活性、较低的盈亏平衡价格以及稳健的财务结构,加上历史低位的杠杆率,我们具备独特的优势,能够把握各种有利情景,并与股东分享预期收益,”首席执行官克劳迪奥·德斯卡尔齐在盈利报告中表示。“我们新的2026财年现金流预期(基于修订后的情景)为138亿欧元,这反映了上述优势,并将转化为28亿欧元的股票回购计划,较原计划增长近90%。” 在股息方面,集团确认了2026年每股1.10欧元的计划股息,较上年增长5%。集团还预计本财年将持续实现运营增长和现金流增长。 “埃尼集团今日将其全球天然气和液化天然气业务组合的业绩预期上调至13亿欧元,较此前预期上调30%。鉴于天然气市场的动态,我们认为这一上调基本在意料之中。然而,埃尼集团此前曾多次上调业绩预期,因此我们认为,如果中东局势持续动荡,天然气市场波动加剧,投资者可能会预期其再次上调业绩预期。”该研究机构表示。 截至周五中午,埃尼集团在米兰的股价上涨近1%。

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.

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.
