BP p l c
- BP Plc declined 4.8% to 508.70 pence after the energy company reported a decline in profit driven by lower crude oil and natural gas prices.
The company declared an ordinary share dividend of 61.6 cents per share and announced to purchase $1.75 billion of its shares prior to the release of its second quarter results around the first week in July.
The company also slowed its pace of stock repurchase to $4.0 billion, at the lower end of its $14 billion to $18 billion in capital expenditure in 2023, based on the $60 a barrel Brent crude price forecast.
Net profit attributable to shareholders declined to $8.2 billion from $10.2 billion in the fourth quarter of 2022 but ahead of $20.4 billion in losses a year ago.
