TOTAL Tops Zacks Estimate – Analyst Blog
Logo1
38%

TOTAL SA (TOT) reported third-quarter earnings of €0.84 per share ($1.20 per share), above the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.12 and second-quarter profit of €0.77. However, earnings declined from €1.81 reported a year ago. Earnings improved sequentially based on higher production, better realizations and lower costs.
 
Total revenues declined 31% from the year-ago quarter but improved 7% sequentially to €33.6 billion. The decline was caused mainly by lower realized oil and gas prices in the Upstream segment, reduced throughput volumes in the Downstream segment and a revenue decline at< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< />< /><>< /><>< /><><>< /><>< /><>< />< />...

Five European Oil Stock Bargains

Stocks of the European Oil group, made up of five buy-recommendations, Total (TOT), StatoilHydro (STO), Royal Dutch Shell (RDS), BP plc (BP) and BG Group (BRGXF.PK), have low McDep Ratios that fall within the tightest range (0.75-0.87) of the six industry groups in our coverage. McDep Ratios for the European stocks have reversed a three-year slump (see chart below). In the context that lower McDep Ratio stocks should return more than higher McDep stocks, BP has underperformed modestly over three years.

<>Otherwise, occasional extremes appear to get reduced in a pattern of reversion to the mea...

The Next Five Years In ETFs
That is the title to a post by Matt Hougan over at IndexUniverse. Five years seems like a long time for the ETF industry think of where it was in 2004 versus now. The next five years could see even more change than the last five.

In his post Matt talks about seeing a few funds in the filings that could become very important but doesn't say which ones. He also mentions big firms that are not yet in the business, like Schwab, getting in and staking a big claim. There are many S&P 500 index traditional mutual fund so there can be more than a couple of SPX ETFs.

<>The other point he made that stuck...

Total S.A. Offers Real Return, Secure Income

Buy-recommended Total S.A. (TOT) offers unlevered appreciation potential of 48% to a McDep Ratio of 1.0 where stock price would equal Net Present Value (NPV) of $90 a share. Released today, second quarter results were less than our estimate for unlevered cash flow (Ebitda) from three months ago in the downstream segment. While upstream matched the estimate, higher oil price was offset by lower natural gas price outside North America.

<>Total’s downstream cash flow trend is similar to that of Royal Dutch Shell (RDS.A) and less volatile than that of BP plc (BP). The currently stronger oil pro...

Six High Quality Energy Investments
<>Through the second quarter, six global energy companies with combined Enterprise Value of $1.3 trillion are producing more oil and gas, participating in recovering oil price and positioned for improving margins downstream. Their stocks are attractively priced at McDep Ratios ranging from 0.57 to 0.81. A McDep Ratio of 1.0 corresponds to an unlevered return of 7% a year after inflation. The estimated return presumes a long-term real price of $75 a barrel for oil that trades currently at an average $82 a barrel for the next six years in the futures market. Financial risk is low with debt rang...
