Petrobras Stands Out Among Its Peers
Comparing Petrobras with other oil giants around the world, you can see that the company also stands out as an investment opportunity. We put the Brazilian company side by side with Shell (NYSE:SHEL), BP (NYSE:BP), Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM), and Chevron (NYSE:CVX).
The company has the highest upside potential in fair value and the lowest P/L. The runner-up in price upside, for example, is BP, with "only" 23.2%. BP's EV/EBTIDA is slightly lower, trading at 1.8x. But it's worth noting that all the oil companies mentioned are still underpriced and trade at low valuation multiples.
The Brazilian company also has the best Financial Health score (3.52), followed by BP (3.01) and Shell (3.0) with a B rating, while Exxon Mobil and Chevron have a C rating. Petrobras is also, by far, the best dividend payer on the list, with a DY of 26.6%, with Exxon Mobil in second place (6.1%).
