Analysis

Bargain bin

BP p.l.c. falls in the bargain bin: the price is low relative to peers, but the business metrics give reason to pause.

The price is fair. You pay 18.7× its owner earnings: the cash an owner could take out each year, which is in the historically fair zone. At today's price, the market is assuming roughly 5% yearly growth; analysts expect 15%. The price, in other words, assumes less than the experts do.

The trajectory is solid and the balance sheet is adequate. The company scores 10/20 on our value-creation score: creating some value.

Nothing is flagged here: no red or amber gates, no divergence between profits and cash. That is itself information: the numbers are straightforward. As always: this describes the company's numbers; it is not a recommendation.
