Eni Earnings Fall on Lower Energy Prices
By David Sachs
Eni's net profit and operating profit fell in the fourth quarter, dragged by lower oil and natural-gas prices.
The Italian oil-and-gas company said Friday that its net profit fell to 149 million euros ($160.5 million) from EUR627 million in the fourth quarter of 2022. Adjusted net profit slumped to EUR1.64 billion from EUR2.49 billion while adjusted operating profit fell 23% to EUR2.77 billion, Eni said.
A reduction in crude-oil and natural-gas prices, as well as slowing demand in the chemicals business, dragged on the results, the company said.
Eni is due to release 2024 targets on March 14.
