Eni S.p.A.&nbsp;(NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/E#NYSE">E</a>) shares are trading higher after the company reported Q2 FY24 pro forma adjusted EBIT of €4.1 billion, down 8% Y/Y, in the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.eni.com/content/dam/enicom/documents/press-release/migrated/2024-en/07/PR-2024-second-quarter-results.pdf" rel="noreferrer noopener">quarter</a>.
Hydrocarbon production rose 6% Y/Y to €1,712 kboe/d, with installed capacity from renewables of 3.1 GW at the end of the period.
Production benefitted from a continued ramp-up of the company&#8217;s flagship projects in Côte d&#8217;Ivoire and Congo Floating LNG, a higher contribution from Libya, and the full integration of Neptune.
In Q2 2024, E&amp;P proforma adjusted EBIT was €3.5 billion, up 26% Y/Y, fueled by higher production and efficiency gains.
GGP proforma adjusted EBIT stood at €0.33 billion, reflecting ongoing optimization of the gas and LNG portfolio.
Adjusted net profit stood at €1.5 billion, down 21% Y/Y, in the quarter but above an analyst consensus of €1.42 billion (as per Reuters).
Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital at replacement cost fell 8% Y/Y to €3.91 billion.
CEO Claudio Descalzi stated, "We are upgrading our Upstream portfolio, having recently announced the divestment of our non-core assets in Alaska, the ongoing completion of the sale of onshore Nigeria, and agreed a combination with Ithaca Energy for our UK assets.&#8221;
Apart from this, PETRONAS, Eni&#8217;s Enilive S.p.A, and Euglena Co. finalized the investment decision to build a biorefinery at PETRONAS&#8217; Pengerang Integrated Complex (PIC) in Johor, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.eni.com/en-IT/media/press-release/2024/07/petronas-enilive-and-euglena-reach-final-investment-decision-to-construct-a-biorefinery-in-malaysia.html" rel="noreferrer noopener">Malaysia</a>.
The biorefinery, slated for completion in late 2028, will produce Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) and other biofuels.
Construction starts in Q4 2024, and the facility will process 650,000 tonnes of raw materials per year to produce SAF, HVO, and bio-naphtha.
Outlook: The company projects hydrocarbon production to reach the upper end of the 1.69 &#8211; 1.71 million boe/d range, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">given a forecast Brent price of $86/bbl</a>.
The company now expects proforma adjusted EBIT of around €15 billion, with adjusted CFFO before working capital expected to exceed €14 billion for the year.
Eni anticipates the next quarterly dividend, following shareholder approval of a €1 per share dividend for FY 2024 (a 6% increase from 2023), will be €0.25 per share, payable on Sept. 25, 2024.
After shareholder approval of a new €3.5 billion buyback plan, management confirms a 2024 buyback of €1.6 billion, with a faster pace of repurchases than previously planned.
The company&#8217;s disposal plan is advancing ahead of schedule, with nearly all of the €8 billion net proceeds over the four-year period now clearly visible.

If You Invested $1000 In This Stock 5 Years Ago, You Would Have $2,400 Today

Personal finance guru Dave Ramsey gave tough advice on The Ramsey Show to a woman and her husband living paycheck to paycheck yet making $11,500 a month. Here's what advice Ramsey gave the couple.&nbsp;
Alyssa called in for guidance from the finance expert because she and her husband were worried about finances. Alyssa tells Ramsey that she's remarried, and together as a couple, they bring in $11,500 per month, yet they're unable to <a href="http://www.benzinga.com/money/smartasset">contribute to their retirement</a> and only have around $3,000 in their savings.&nbsp;
Don't Miss:
<ul>
<li>Can you guess how many Americans successfully retire with $1,000,000 saved?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/red-ventures"> The percentage may shock you</a>.</li>
<li>Are you richer than most people you know?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/are-you-richer-than-most-people"> Here&#8217;s the net worth you need at every age to be above average.</a></li>
</ul>
Earning a combined salary puts the couple at an annual salary of $140,000, much higher than the average annual salary in the U.S. For example, USA Today reported that the U.S. Bureau of Labor released findings that the average American earned $59,384. Even with the amount doubled, Alyssa and her husband earn significantly more. So, why are they living paycheck to paycheck? This is what Ramsey wants to find out.&nbsp;
He starts by finding out how much debt the pair have, and Alyssa reveals that combined, they have $138,000 in debt, with $90,000 of it from Alyssa's studies to become a mental health care therapist. Her husband has the remaining $40,000 from his time at college, even though he did not want to attend college. But that wasn't all. They still owed an additional $60,000 on car payments and a mortgage with $240,000 still to go. So, the total debt is more than $130,000.&nbsp;
Ramsey's co-host, George Kamel, an expert on all things money, questions Alyssa about how quickly they can pay this debt off. He asks if they can throw up to $5,000 per month at the smallest debt. Alyssa's sigh of hesitance worries Kamel, and he asks her what is holding her back from zapping her debt away.&nbsp;
See Also: How much money will a $200,000 annuity pay out each month?<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/200k-annuities-adv"> The numbers may shock you.</a>
Alyssa&#8217;s fear of taking $5,000 per month to pay off debt is motivated by ensuring her daughter has enough. Because Alyssa is self-employed and her husband works in construction, she reveals that she gets worried about "catastrophic expenses." But that's not what Ramsey was worried about listening to her talk.&nbsp;
He tells her, "You know what I'm worried about?" and dishes out some hard truths, "You make $130,000 a year and you're freaking broke. That's what I'm worried about." Ramsey points out that they're living a lifestyle they can't afford, and that's what she must be worried about.&nbsp;
Trending: This Jeff Bezos-backed startup will allow you to<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/bezos-landlord-100-dollars"> become a landlord in just 10 minutes, and you only need $100</a>.
"You have a lifestyle that's absolutely asinine, and that's nothing to do with a nine-year-old," Ramsey said. Alyssa tells the two finance experts that the money she needs for her daughter is for "just in case," an emergency savings fund. But Ramsey didn't buy it and explained, "But you're not doing anything about it. You got $3,000." He tells her in disbelief that her $3,000 in savings is just a "red herring" and "you're doing nothing about that except creating anxiety."&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Ramsey tells Alyssa that she and her husband have no idea where their money goes, so to help them, Ramsey puts them on a detailed written budget. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/personal-finance/24/05/38922057/dave-ramsey-tells-caller-to-stop-funding-his-401-k-with-a-6-employer-match-while-in-debt-experts">Ramsey tells her that looking objectively at their finances</a>, he could easily see them being able to put aside at least $50,000 a year toward debt and should consider selling a car or two. He then dishes out some tough advice, "You live like no one else so that later you can give and live like no one else."

Lockheed Martin To Rally Over 14%? Here Are 10 Top Analyst Forecasts For Friday

The Biden-Harris Administration revealed that the U.S. Department of Commerce and Amkor Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMKR#NASDAQ">AMKR</a>) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.commerce.gov/news/press-releases/2024/07/biden-harris-administration-announces-preliminary-terms-amkor" rel="noreferrer noopener">signed </a>a preliminary memorandum of terms to provide up to $400 million in funding under the CHIPS and Science Act.
This funding supports Amkor&#8217;s planned $2 billion semiconductor packaging facility in Peoria, Arizona, which is expected to create 2,000 jobs and boost the domestic semiconductor supply chain.
Amkor announced in November 2023 its plans to build its first domestic outsourced semiconductor <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/39978603">assembly and test facility in Peoria, Arizona.</a>
Amkor&#8217;s Arizona facility will utilize technology, including 2.5D technology crucial for AI and high-performance computing.
President Biden&#8217;s CHIPS and Science Act, a pivotal part of his Investing in America agenda, aims to revitalize U.S. semiconductor manufacturing, enhance supply chain security, and foster job creation.
The proposed funding will help Amkor build the largest advanced packaging facility in the U.S., supporting high-performance computing, AI, communications, and automotive markets.
Amkor has secured approximately 55 acres and intends to build the campus with more than 500,000 square feet of clean room space. The first phase of the manufacturing facility is targeted to be ready for production within three years.
Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo highlighted the significance of this investment in meeting the rising demand for AI chips and securing economic and national security.

This initiative ensures that companies like Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSM#NYSE">TSM</a>), Apple Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAPL#NASDAQ">AAPL</a>), and GlobalFoundries Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GFS#NASDAQ">GFS</a>) can package and test essential chips domestically, reinforcing the entire chip manufacturing process within the U.S. 
Amkor plans to take advantage of the Department of the Treasury&#8217;s Investment Tax Credit, which is expected to be up to&nbsp;25%&nbsp;of qualified capital expenditures.
In addition to the proposed direct funding of up to $400 million, the CHIPS Program Office would make approximately $200 million of proposed loans, which is part of the $75 billion in loan authority provided by the CHIPS and Science Act, available to Amkor under the preliminary memorandum of terms.
Price Action: AMKR shares are trading lower by 0.75% at $37.90 at last check Friday.
