TotalEnergies on Smartkarma
Analyst coverage of TotalEnergies on Smartkarma reveals insights from Suhas Reddy with a bullish lean. In the research report titled “[Earnings Preview] TotalEnergies Banks on LNG Growth to Offset Weak Oil Prices,” TotalEnergies is projected to experience a decline in revenue and EPS for Q4 and 2024 primarily due to lower crude prices. However, the company stands out from its peers as it expects to benefit from increased LNG output and prices.
TotalEnergies foresees a 22.5% YoY drop in Q4 revenue and a 14.8% YoY decrease in EPS, with further declines expected for 2024. Despite the challenges posed by lower crude prices, the company anticipates positive outcomes from higher LNG production and stronger gas trading. This strategic focus on LNG growth is likely to differentiate TotalEnergies in the market, supported by a modest rise in oil and gas production in Q4 and favorable developments in the Integrated LNG segment.
