Unfortunately, Linda and her EIG HBR Chairman ally here have made plenty of money while Harbour Energy shareholders have only suffered throughout and Executive Team have somehow squandered HBR’s hard earned revenues and subsequently, free cash flows!

I also now have the bad feeling that this is going to go below 200p levels soon and then if there is even a hint of lower than anticipated dividends then there are no limits on how low the share price can go to moving forward, DYOR.

Also added more, Brent up, UK and European Gas prices up (and trading close to 1+ year highs), GBP is also weaker against USD (resulting in even higher dividends via improved exchange rates) and yet, HBR share price is down AGAIN on relatively little volumes! Now understandably, tired & fearful sellers of today will regrettably be buyers of tomorrow here and at lot higher prices, that’s generally how markets operate.

Note how each time over the past year the HBR share price has fallen to the current level, it has bounced each time. So now looks a good entry point, both for a trading buy and for long term holding.

Investors craving energy plays in 2025 may wish to consider this 8%-yielding UK stock

Harbour Energy is a UK stock with a diversified portfolio and yield level that may appeal to investors seeking traditional energy plays this year.

Traditional energy companies have been buoyed by rising prices and Donald Trump’s pro-oil US presidency at the start of the year. In this market climate, high-yield UK stock Harbour Energy (LSE: HBR) might be an option to consider for those eyeing returns as well as price appreciation.

Admittedly, the field of energy companies wooing investors is very competitive these days. It doesn’t help that Harbour Energy grabbed headlines due to its North Sea exposure. Operators, like the company, were clobbered last summer with heavy taxation by the UK’s Labour government for North Sea production.

But there’s more to the company and its performance.

Not just the North Sea

At the start of 2025, Harbour Energy remains the largest London-listed independent oil company. It has a geographically diverse portfolio comprising assets in Argentina, Mexico, North Africa and Southeast Asia. These sit alongside assets in Germany, and British and Norwegian North Sea holdings.

The company’s current global production level is around 475,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day, enabling it to offer income-chasing investors a near 8% yield.

A well-respected board and CEO Linda Cook have overseen its expansion over the last four years via both organic and acquisitive growth. Their latest strategic play was the acquisition of Wintershall Dea last year for $11.2bn.

Operational discipline

In the six months to January, marked by declining oil prices, Harbour Energy saw its share price fall by around 5%. But over the same period, this compares favourably with its peers along with UK majors Shell and BP, with both posting declines of 3% and 6% respectively.

The first three weeks of January also saw Harbour Energy’s share price rise by 11%, bringing it close to the 300p mark. It hit a 52-week high of 333p in May before oil price volatility and changes to North Sea taxation knocked investor confidence.

Harbour Energy has since been trying to regain it. The company’s net debt has decreased significantly in recent years. It expects to have a net cash position by the end of 2025. Unsurprisingly, dividends have slowly but steadily increased since March 2022.

Market rumours are also rife about Harbour Energy moving its primary listing to the US, giving the energy stock further positive vibes. The company has dismissed the rumours. Instead, it is pursuing an investment-grade credit rating (i.e. bond or other form of debt vehicle / security with a low default risk), through financial and operational discipline.

What’s not to like?

There is a lot to like about Harbour Energy, but caution is still merited. As trading in 2024 demonstrated, direction of oil and gas prices will impact the company’s share price no matter how operationally disciplined it is.

A US listing, should it happen, is not always a one-way ticket to a higher valuation, as Diversified Energy Company recently found out. Some may also find Harbour Energy’s risk versus reward profile to be too timid or conservative, with other small-to-mid sized oil and gas stocks offering greater potential for price appreciation.

On balance, this high-yield energy midcap UK stock with a low risk profile strikes the right note for me, and I will be adding more of it to my portfolio.

HBR share price should already be much higher than £3+ here while now trend for O&G prices is clearly bullish which along with a rapidly weakening £GBP (leading to higher $USD denominated dividends) are all excellent news for HBR!

Yip oil and gas prices spiking to the moon. Hbr share price down in the gutters

Meanreveter. All you need to know is that HBR share price will be around the 300p area for yrs to come. It's been around the 300p area for yrs.

All for no reason whatsoever

Spacedust is absolutely correct despite what the "experts" on here say. share price bobbing about at 270p to 300p for around 2 1/2 years, huge promises of "will rocket", hasnt. All bluster about mergers, Zama, Egypt blah blah blah. share price falls on good news almost every time. Fact is that HBR are a poorly managed company promoted and relegated from FTSE100 twice, yes twice. Still the rampers say 550p - 700p is coming. Need a management change for that. Most of these old duffers will be dead when that happens, if ever. HBR are really no better than a secong tier producer and that's where they are. Keep telling it as it is Spacedust.

Now simply looking at the extremely low daily trading volumes here subsequently followed by large post market closure trades (and at considerably higher share price in recent days), I tend to also strongly agree with this/below stated post, upside potential here now by far exceeds any downside risks!

Share price manipulation

When we are all really cheesed right off with the share price and the last of us bale out, then we’ll see the share price turn round. I think that we are in the final “shake them out” phase now, so it’s a matter of keeping your nerve in my opinion. With a great dividend, a mega merger, a healthy balance sheet and great cash flow…..I am sticking with this one for the long term. AIMHO and good luck all.

1 ex-FTSE 100 stock that I think will get promoted soon

Each quarter, the FTSE 100 and FTSE 250 have a reshuffle. Based on the rise and fall of the market cap of a stock, it could get promoted or relegated from either index. The largest companies sit in the FTSE 100. Here’s one firm that used to have a seat at the top table that I think could return shortly.

In the hot seat:

I’m talking about Harbour Energy (LSE:HBR). Back in late 2022, it was demoted out of the main index down to the FTSE 250, which is where it currently sits.

The business has been performing well recently, with the share price up 11% over the past year. Back in late December, the stock jumped on news that it had agreed to buy the upstream assets of German oil and gas producer Wintershall Dea. This gives Harbour Energy a much broader asset base around the world and will help for diversification purposes.

Habour Energy also has momentum when I consider the rising oil price. Brent crude recently hit levels not seen since last October and is above $81 per barrel right now. Should this continue to move higher into the summer, it should support higher earnings from the business.

Why promotion could be close:

From purely a numbers stand point, the stock could be due to rise up to the FTSE 100 soon. It currently has a market cap of £2.14bn. In comparison, St. James’s Place (which is in the FTSE 100) has a market cap of £2.33bn. Obviously we’ll have to wait for the final figures come the next quarterly rebalancing, but it’s clear that Harbour Energy isn’t far away.

Even if it doesn’t quite make it this time, the trajectory of the share price should mean that it will get to the top table at some point this year. Granted, past performance is no guarantee of future returns. But if the share price keeps rising, the market cap should also increase. As a result, this should help it to be in contention versus FTSE 100 stocks that are falling in value.

How it could help the share price:

One of the benefits that a promotion would bring is the buying demand from index funds. A FTSE 100 index fund has to purchase any new stock, and sell any that get demoted. This naturally acts to help the share price, at least in the short term.

Even though FTSE 250 index funds would sell Harbour Energy shares in this case, the index tracker market for the FTSE 100 is vastly larger than the FTSE 250.

Further, getting back to the FTSE 100 would give Harbour Energy more publicity and potentially open it up to new investors. For example, I know some of my friends that only want to invest in the main index.

Of course, I shouldn’t simply buy the stock because it might get promoted. Rather, this is a side benefit. The main reason I’d look to buy would be due to the fundamentals of the business. As a result, it’s a stock that I’m thinking about buying shortly.
