Petrobras: Oil Giant With Exceptional Margins Worth The Political Risk
Petrobras offers a compelling investment case due to its industry-leading margins, low breakeven costs, and robust financial health, even in volatile oil markets. Despite higher CAPEX and political risks, Petrobras remains undervalued, with a strong dividend yield and resilient cash flows supporting a Buy rating. The company's state ownership brings both advantages (favorable financing, strategic importance) and risks (political interference, lower valuation), but long-term prospects remain attractive.

Petrobras: When Market Fear Creates Long-Term Value
Petrobras delivered strong earnings, resilient margins, and rising production, yet the market continues to price the stock with distressed multiples far below global peers. Political noise explains the discount, but fundamentals remain solid with double-digit dividend yield, net debt/EBITDA of 1.0x, and one of the most profitable offshore portfolios worldwide. A long-term investment plan of $111B through 2029 consolidates pre-salt leadership while funding energy transition projects, showing Petrobras can balance growth, profitability, and financial discipline.

Petrobras' Dividend Story Still Rich, Thanks To Volatile State-Run Status
PBR's stock price moderation mirrors that of the normalizing Brent oil spot prices, thanks to the OPEC+ output hikes and the US's increased production through 2026. The management has opted to mitigate the lower realized prices by -20.1% YoY with higher production outputs by +12% YoY, allowing them to report stable top/bottom lines thus far. While the heightened capex has already triggered a declining free cash flow generation, we are not overly concerned, indeed, since it is part and parcel of oil/gas investing.
