Company Report

ConocoPhillips Keeps the Focus on Capital Discipline and Shareholder Returns

Differentiating itself from peers big and small, ConocoPhillips has laid out a 10-year plan for restrained investment, steady growth, improving returns, and, importantly, returning cash to shareholders. Its strategy makes Conoco a compelling option in the energy sector, given its commitment to capital restraint and clear policy on return of cash to shareholders. Its low-cost portfolio gives it high return investment options to grow in a rising price environment while its strong financial position keeps the dividend safe in a downcycle.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

A large position in the Permian offers low-cost liquids growth with wider margins, lower risk, and higher returns than international operations.

Bears

Conoco is investing to reduce emissions, but not to diversify its business away from hydrocarbons, potentially risking future value destruction if demand declines faster than expected.
