What To Know: Petrobras stated that approximately 15.6 billion reals (approximately $2,685,997,080) of the payout would come from a capital reserve. The reserve had been holding cash investors expected to receive earlier as extraordinary dividends for the 2023 period.
Earlier in the week, Petrobras <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42137060/petrobras-boosts-five-year-investment-to-111b-aims-for-32m-boed-production">announced its strategic plan</a> for 2025-2029, outlining $111 billion in investments, including $77 billion for exploration and production and $20 billion for refining, transportation and sales. The plan also emphasizes a focus on sustainable practices, such as reducing the carbon footprint of its operations and prioritizing pre-salt asset development.
The company expects total production of 3.2 million barrels of oil and gas equivalent per day during the period and plans to distribute $45 billion to $55 billion in ordinary dividends, with an additional $10 billion reserved for extraordinary dividends or projects.
PBR Price Action: Petrobas Brasileiro shares were up 5.19% at $14.89 at the time of publication on Friday, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro.</a>

Despite flat earnings and challenging market conditions, Cresco Labs Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRLBF#OTC">CRLBF</a>) remains an &#8220;Overweight&#8221; stock, according to analysis firm Zuanic &amp; Associates. In his latest report, Zuanic underscores Cresco&#8217;s strong positioning in emerging adult-use markets such as Pennsylvania and Ohio while identifying valuation advantages that set the company apart. 
Cresco trades at 5.5x forward EBITDA, below Green Thumb Industries Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GTBIF#OTC">GTBIF</a>) at 7x and Curaleaf Holdings Inc. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CURLF#OTC">CURLF</a>) at 10x. 
&#8220;This discount presents an appealing entry point for investors looking beyond short-term volatility,&#8221; Zuanic writes.

You can't afford to miss out if you&#8217;re serious about the business.</li>
</ul>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Market Dynamics: Cresco In The Tier 1 Landscape</h3>
Zuanic's report benchmarks Cresco against other Tier 1 multi-state operators (MSOs), including Green Thumb, Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TCNNF#OTC">TCNNF</a>), Verano Holdings Corp. (OTC:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VRNOF#OTC">VRNOF</a>), and Curaleaf.&nbsp;
While Cresco&#8217;s third-quarter revenue of $180 million fell 2% sequentially, the decline aligns with broader industry trends, with peers like Curaleaf and Verano posting declines of 3% and 5%, respectively. By contrast, Green Thumb achieved a 2% increase, reaching $287 million.
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis/earnings">Adjusted EBITDA margins </a>further illustrate Cresco's position: the company held steady at 29% in Q3, compared to Green Thumb at 31% (-200 basis points) and Trulieve at 34% (-100 basis points). However, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/CRLBF">Cresco lags in adjusted cash flow.</a>&nbsp;
Its negative $3 million adjusted figure for the first nine months of 2024, factoring in tax liabilities, contrasts sharply with Green Thumb's $139 million (17% of sales) and Trulieve's $37 million (4% of sales). <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/pablo-zuanic">Zuanic highlights</a> cash flow conversion as a critical area where Cresco &#8216;lags&#8217; its competitors.&#8221;&nbsp;

<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Valuation Analysis: Digging Into The Numbers</h3>
Cresco's <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis/earnings">valuation metrics reveal potential upside</a>. Its enterprise value (EV) to current sales ratio stands at 1.6x, lower than Curaleaf and Green Thumb, both at 2.2x. This discount extends to EV-to-EBITDA multiples, with Cresco trading at 5.5x compared to Green Thumb at 7x and Curaleaf at 10x.&nbsp;
These figures include tax liabilities, financial net debt, and other obligations. "Cresco's lower EV multiples, alongside its gross cash holdings of $157 million, make it a compelling value play among Tier 1 operators," Zuanic explains.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Strategic Hurdles And Growth Catalysts</h3>
Despite these advantages, Zuanic identifies several hurdles. Cresco&#8217;s total leverage, including financial and tax liabilities, amounts to 80% of trailing sales, the highest among Tier 1 MSOs. In contrast, Green Thumb's leverage is just 9%. Moreover, while Cresco holds promising positions in <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/pennsylvania-cannabis">Pennsylvania</a> and <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/ohio-cannabis">Ohio</a>, Zuanic emphasizes the need for a strategic partner to close the scale gap with peers like Green Thumb and Curaleaf. &#8220;A partnership would help Cresco achieve operational efficiencies and capitalize on upcoming recreational markets,&#8221; he notes.
Zuanic&#8217;s projections account for regulatory uncertainty, including delays in Pennsylvania's adult-use legalization timeline to mid-2026 and the potential impact of federal rescheduling challenges. Nonetheless, he remains optimistic about Cresco's long-term prospects. &#8220;We see Cresco as a buy for investors with a one-to-two-year horizon, particularly given its discounted valuation,&#8221; he concludes.

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>) shares are trading higher Friday. There were multiple developments this week, including unionization efforts at its Kentucky battery plant and broader industry calls to President-elect Donald Trump to preserve key EV tax credits. Here&#8217;s <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/F/news">what you need to know.</a>
What To Know: Earlier this week, the United Auto Workers (UAW) announced that a supermajority of workers at Ford's BlueOval SK battery plant in Kentucky, a joint venture with SK On, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/24/11/42104199/supermajority-of-workers-at-fords-jv-battery-plant-sign-union-authorization-cards-says-uaw">signed union authorization cards</a>.
The workers cited pay and benefit disparities compared to unionized Ford employees as key motivators. UAW stated that BlueOval SK workers earn significantly less than their unionized counterparts, starting pay at $21 per hour compared to $26.32 for Ford's UAW production workers.
Additionally, a group representing major automakers, including Ford, urged the incoming Trump administration to preserve the $7,500 federal tax credit for electric vehicle purchases and support self-driving car technologies. The group also expressed concerns over emissions regulations and potential revisions to rules mandating automatic emergency braking systems. This lobbying effort potentially highlights the auto industry&#8217;s focus on sustaining momentum in EV and autonomous vehicle development while addressing regulatory challenges.
What Else: On Wednesday, the company announced plans to cut about 4,000 jobs or 14% of its European workforce, due to weak demand for electric vehicles and increasing competition. The layoffs, representing 2.3% of Ford&#8217;s global headcount, are expected to occur by the end of 2027. Ford&#8217;s European sales have dropped 17.9% this year, largely due to reduced EV subsidies in markets like Germany, contributing to the company&#8217;s challenges as its transition to electric vehicles.
F Price Action: Ford Motor shares were up 3.56% at $11.18 at the time of writing, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga pro.</a>
