Analysis

Middle-of-the-road

LyondellBasell Industries N.V. is a middle-of-the-road business: neither the economics nor the price stand out from the peer group.

Valuation data is not available for this company.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is stretched. The company scores 2/20 on our value-creation score: not creating value. Analysts lean positive.

What to watch: The financial cushion is thinner than comfortable. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
