TotalEnergies Profit Hits Record on High Oil Prices

The French oil major doubled earnings from a year earlier as record refining margins and stronger trading lifted downstream cash flow.

  • On Thursday, French energy giant TotalEnergies reported a record adjusted net income of $9.1 billion for the third quarter, surpassing average analyst expectations of $8.3 billion.
  • According to CEO Patrick Pouyanné, the gains resulted from historic refining margins and robust trading, as the Middle East conflict drove up hydrocarbon prices and LNG values.
  • TotalEnergies' downstream division booked a record $4.1 billion in operating income, while European peers like Shell reported $10.8 billion, tracking a sector-wide trend of exceptional profits.
  • The company confirmed a third interim dividend of €0.90 per share and plans $2.5 billion in share buybacks for the fourth quarter and first quarter 2027.
  • Management will launch a capital increase reserved for employees, who will benefit from a 20% discount on the share price, as TotalEnergies bolsters supply security across Europe.
