31/3/2020 06:11 | if you are uk tax resident rdsb would be a better buy
DIVIS IN UK NOT SUBJECT TO WITHHOLDING TAX
At a guess companies still paying a divi might start going at a premium
secondly the oil price fiasco might soon be sorted
it is hoped that virus will subside
Many now believe we have reached a bottom
HAVING SAID THAT IT MIGHT WELL FALL AGAIN BEFORE GOING BACK UP |  waldron | |
31/3/2020 06:01 | Is rdsa a good long term buy at the moment, why is it rising significantly in this crisis and also with oil so low at the moment? Cheers |  rmc100 | |

Shell in plan to save $10bn as Covid-19, oil price crash bite
Shell said it was cutting capital expenditure, underlying operating costs and postponing the next phase of its share buyback to save $10bn in the face of the Covid-19 pandemic.

The oil giant said it would cut underlying operating costs by $3bn - $4bn a year over the next 12 months compared to 2019 levels and reduce cash capital expenditure to $20bn or below for 2020 from a planned level of around $25bn. Shelving the share buyback would save anther $1bn.
“Together, these initiatives are expected to contribute $8bn - $9bn of free cash flow on a pre-tax basis. Shell is still committed to its divestment programme of more than $10bn of assets in 2019-20 but timing depends on market conditions.”
Chief executive Ben van Beurden said he was “taking immediate steps to ensure the financial strength and resilience of our business”. Covid-19 has led to a slump in the demand for oil, particularly in the aviation industry exacerbated by the oil price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia.
“The combination of steeply falling oil demand and rapidly increasing supply may be unique, but Shell has weathered market volatility many times in the past.”
Brent crude was trading almost 5% lower at less than $26 a barrel on Monday. Shell launched a $25bn share buyback to offset dilution from shares issued during the 2016 takeover of BG Group as well as shares issued as dividend payments after the last oil price crash of 2014 -16.
Hargreaves Lansdown analyst Nicholas Hyett said the company could come under pressure to put aside its " totemic dividend policy".
"However some shareholder returns have already proven less than sacrosanct, with the share buyback suspended. If we’re in a new era of sustained sub-$40 oil then the dividend could yet become a burden that’s too much to bear," he said..
"That’s the rub for Shell investors. The group’s taking emergency action to protect cash flow in the short term, but the influence of the oil price means its future is largely out of its hands. There’s no knowing exactly how long the toxic combination of increased global supply and falling demand will last.” |  sarkasm | |

(Bloomberg) --
Royal Dutch Shell Plc said it won’t continue with the next phase of its share buyback program, joining a growing list of energy companies enacting cost savings to weather the market crisis.
The oil major announced Monday it was taking “immediate steps to ensure the financial strength and resilience” of its business. While its intention to complete the share buyback remains unchanged, “it is not likely to be feasible before the end of 2020,” according to a statement.
Shell sees a reduction in cash capital spending to $20 billion or below for 2020 from a planned level of around $25 billion. It also expects a reduction in underlying operating costs by $3 billion to $4 billion a year over the next 12 months compared with 2019 levels, and a “material̶1; decline in working capital.
Together, the measures are expected to contribute $8 billion to $9 billion of free cash flow on a pretax basis. The company said it’s still committed to its divestment program of more than $10 billion of assets in 2019-20 but timing depends on the market.
Across the oil and gas industry, companies are reining in spending as they seek to weather a crash in the oil market. Exxon Mobil Corp. has announced a slowdown in its spending program, while European counterpart BP Plc’s head Bernard Looney said it would reduce capital and operational spending.
