BofA: Adnoc Gas Poised to Gain from Higher Oil, Gas Prices; EBITDA Estimates Up

BofA Global Research is optimistic on Adnoc Gas' (ADX:ADNOCGAS) long-term growth story amid expectations of higher oil and gas prices over the near term, according to its MENA Oil and Gas & Utilities report published Wednesday."ADNOC Gas stands to benefit from a stronger commodity backdrop, with our commodities team raising its Brent assumptions to US$83/bbl for 2026 (fromUS$76/bbl) and US$75/bbl for 2027 (from US$70/bbl previously)," analysts wrote. "Spot LNG prices have also moved higher and, with around 20% of LNG volumes exposed to spot markets, ADNOC Gas offers additional leverage to improving gas fundamentals. We estimate that a US$5/bbl change in oil prices impacts EBITDA by c.4.6%, assuming a corresponding move in LPG and LNG prices."The research firm increased its 2026 and 2027 EBITDA forecasts by 3% and 10.1%, respectively, as it took into account the company's results for the second quarter of 2026, higher oil price assumptions for 2027, and management's updated guidance on volumes and margins."The company is also supported by an attractive 5.5% dividend yield. Despite elevated capex and ongoing shipping disruptions, we see no risk to dividend sustainability, with operating cash flow expected to comfortably fund distributions. Higher oil prices and stronger volumes through the remainder of 2026 should support a meaningful recovery in earnings," BofA added.The buy rating on the stock was maintained, with a price objective 4.1 Emirati dirhams.

UAE Shares in Red as Geopolitical Jitters, Volatile Oil Prices Remain in Focus

Stocks in the United Arab Emirates closed lower on the first trading day of the week as uncertainty surrounding the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz and fluctuating oil prices dampened sentiment.At the close of Monday trading, the FTSE ADX General Index lost 0.101%, while the DFM General Index was down 0.73%."Oil prices remain supported by uncertainty surrounding the Strait of Hormuz. While US President Donald Trump said Washington is 'semi-negotiating' with Iran, suggesting a focus on economic pressure rather than military escalation, significant hurdles remain before any broader agreement is reached," ING analysts said. "Reports indicate that Iran and Oman are nearing an agreement on a shipping route through Hormuz, though a full reopening of the waterway is still likely to depend on progress in US-Iran talks."As of 3:45 pm UAE time, the Brent crude oil futures stood at nearly $84.803 per barrel, up 1.50% from the previous day.Zooming in at home, the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange recorded a 3.7% year-over-year growth in total trading volume in the first half, achieving a market capitalization of 2.8 billion Emirati dirhams and net positive inflows of 1.4 billion dirhams."In H1 2026, we continued to expand market access, strengthen infrastructure, and introduce innovations and solutions to enable local and international investors to participate in our market more efficiently and in a more timely manner. The results reflect an agile platform designed for resilience, sustainable growth, and long-term value creation," Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange Group Chief Executive Officer Abdulla Salem Alnuaimi commented.Over to corporates, Adnoc Gas (ADX:ADNOCGAS) gained 0.59% at closing and was the Abu Dhabi bourse's most traded stock by value and volume. The natural gas distribution company's profit for the first half fell 34% year-on-year due to export disruptions amid ongoing regional developments in the Middle East.Emirates Investment Bank (DFM:EIBANK) logged a lower profit of 11.1 million dirhams for the period. Shares of the Dubai-listed lender were flat at the time of closing.

BofA Notes Adnoc Gas Q2 Beat, Upgraded FY30 Outlook; Buy Rating Maintained

BofA Global Research reiterated Adnoc Gas (ADX:ADNOCGAS) at buy, with a price objective of 4.10 Emirati dirhams, highlighting the United Arab Emirates-based integrated gas company's better-than-expected second-quarter performance and upgraded full-year 2030 guidance."ADNOC Gas now targets c.60% EBITDA growth by 2030 versus 2023 (previously c.40% by 2029), underpinned by c.45% volume growth and [final investment decision on rich gas development's phase 2 and 3]. This is supported by ADNOC's exit from OPEC+ constraints and progression towards 5 [million barrels per day] production capacity, providing greater visibility on feedgas availability and de-risking ADNOC Gas's growth targets. [Capital expenditure] guidance for 2026-30 has increased to US$28bn from US$20bn. Also, pre-FID Bab Gas Cap development is excluded from both the new EBITDA target and capex guidance, providing further potential upside," according to a Monday note."Despite the heavier investment programme, management expects operating cash flow to more than cover its 5% annual dividend growth policy through 2030, with balance-sheet capacity sufficient to fund capex. We see the upgraded long-term targets as supportive, as it explains the higher capex and de-risk growth and reaffirms estimates," analysts added.The research firm also noted that Adnoc Gas' net income for the three months ended June 30 of $664.6 million came in 5% ahead of consensus and 1% behind BofA's forecast. Meanwhile, the company's revenue for the three months was $3.11 billion, which surpassed consensus and BofA estimates by 9% and 4%, respectively.
