Management Commentary

CEO Claudio Descalzi stated, “The enhancement of our portfolio continues with the completion of the sale of 30% of the Baleine field in Côte d’Ivoire, according to the well-established dual exploration model, and with the progress of the process of selling 20% of the share of Plenitude to the Ares fund, for which all the conditions precedent have been completed.”

“The execution of the transition strategy also proceeds in line with plan: the upgrade of the Sannazzaro hub and the conversion of Priolo mark new biorefining development projects and contribute to the transformation of our downstream; at the same time, Plenitude has reached 4.8 GW of installed renewable capacity, in line with the target of 5.5 GW by the end of the year.”

Outlook

Eni’s outlook points to continued operational momentum, as the company now sees 2025 oil and gas production of 1.71–1.72 million boe/d, implying a fourth-quarter output of around 1.8 million boe/d.

The company confirmed its growth acceleration will continue, fueled by the development of new fields in Congo, the UAE, Qatar, and Libya, with further support expected from the Indonesia-Malaysia business combination.

Despite acknowledging an “unsupportive commodity and currency scenario,” Eni has again revised its annual outlook upward for cash generation, boosting its expected cash flow from operations before working capital adjustments to 12 billion euros from the earlier 11.5 billion euros guidance.

Moreover, the target for cash initiatives and self-help measures was raised to around 4 billion euros, up from the previous 3 billion euros target.

Price Action: E shares were trading higher by 1.71% at $36.82 premarket at last check Friday.
