2Q 2015: WORLD KEY FINANCIAL POINTS

2Q 2015: WORLD KEY FINANCIAL POINTS

Key findings for second-quarter 2015 

  • Although crude oil prices increased in the second quarter over the first quarter, they remained well below the same period of last year.
  • Although companies reduced investment spending, declines in operating cash flow were greater, contributing to a decline in cash balances.
  • Many companies raised funds from debt or equity markets, although less than in the first quarter.
  • The global oil and natural gas companies were less profitable than the U.S. manufacturing sector, which also showed declining profitability.
  • Third-quarter 2015 results could show continued declines in profits, cash flow, and capital expenditure if crude oil prices continue to decline.

 

Geographic distribution of global oil and natural gas companies, Q2 2015

2Q 2015 production levels of liquids and natural gas were 7% and 0%, respectively, above 2Q 2014

Operating cash flow in 2Q 2015 increased $26 billion over 1Q

Companies reduced capital expenditure by $38 BLN over 2Q of 2014

The difference between cash from operations and capital expenditure was almost zero in 2Q 2015

The energy companies still have a wide deficit of operating cash to capital expenditure

This operating deficit continues to be funded from asset sales, debt issuance, and equity issuance

Companies refinanced debt and increased share issuance, but fixed debt payments took a higher share of operating cash flow

In 3Q 2015, Brent oil prices continue to decline, which will likely pressure companies’ cash flow and investment
