FREE CASH FLOW SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN A CONCERN FOR SOME TIME

I BELIEVE NO SURPRISE FOR SOME

IMO IT SHELL B A CONCERN

[montyhedge] 01/2/2018 11:16

Yes cash flow surprise.

[discodave4] 01/2/2018 08:54

Very positive and as usual marked down, the only slight negative IMO is production flat yoy.DD

[chiefbrody] 01/2/2018 08:42

Profit taking patel?No probs here. Hell I don't mind a sharp pullback to add more.£30 sooner or later...

[uapatel] 01/2/2018 08:25

Well as usual we are down on what is good news. Can't see any real negatives here. Yes there is a US Tax adjustment, but that's known and going forward its positive. Anyone else shed some light on the down SP?

Not selling as this is a good business, good income earner and is developing new business.

Good luck all holders.

OUTLOOK FOR THE FIRST QUARTER 2018

Compared with the first quarter 2017, Integrated Gas production volumes are
expected to be positively impacted by some 210 thousand boe/d, mainly
associated with Pearl, Gorgon and portfolio impacts.

Compared with the first quarter 2017, Upstream earnings are expected to be
negatively impacted by a reduction of some 270 thousand boe/d associated with
completed divestments, and positively impacted by some 40 thousand boe/d
associated with lower maintenance activities. Earnings are expected to be
positively impacted by 40 thousand boe/d associated with restored production in
Nigeria; however, the security situation remains sensitive. The production
outlook for NAM in the Netherlands is subject to decisions on production
volumes by the Dutch government following the earthquake in Zeerijp in January
2018.

Refinery availability is expected to decrease in the first quarter 2018 as a
result of higher levels of maintenance compared with the same period a year
ago.

Chemicals manufacturing plant availability is expected to increase in the first
quarter 2018, due to lower levels of maintenance compared with the first
quarter 2017.

As a result of the separation of the Motiva assets and completed divestments,
oil products sales volumes are expected to decrease by some 175 thousand
barrels per day compared with the same period a year ago.

Corporate results, excluding the impact of currency exchange rate effects and
interest rate movements, are expected to be a net charge of $300 - 350 million
in the first quarter and around $1.4 - 1.6 billion for the full year.

As a result of the expected change in the fiscal functional currency of some
Shell entities in Australia to US dollars, the impact of exchange rate
movements of the Australian dollar on deferred tax balances will be
significantly reduced in 2018.

FORTHCOMING EVENTS

The LNG Outlook will be held on February 26, 2018 in London.

The Downstream Open House for Investors will be held on March 21, 2018.

The Annual General Meeting will be held on May 22, 2018.

First quarter 2018 results and dividends are scheduled to be announced on April
26, 2018. Second quarter 2018 results and dividends are scheduled to be
announced on July 26, 2018. Third quarter 2018 results and dividends are
scheduled to be announced on November 1, 2018.

Howling at the moon...chuckle

[fjgooner] 31/1/2018 22:54

2hoggy,

Tomorrow will be just great. We should all thoroughly enjoy reading the full year results.

In 13 weeks' time - so long as Brent stays above $60 (and it is currently circa $69 AND 2018 Brent average has a run rate at about the same) - 2018Q1 will be MASSIVE.

Happy days for Shell holders.

I'm nipping back into the garden for the moon now ... catch you all tomorrow.

[fjgooner] 31/1/2018 22:26

Love the divi's..

here on the border of france and switzerland the moon too shines big and bright

[fjgooner] 31/1/2018 22:05

With just hours to go to our 2017FY results, I don't know if anyone's ever noticed, but I really like this stock. :)

I feel sure that our year end results will shine, but suspect that they may be hugely eclipsed by the bright future outlined by our CEO in his view for the year ahead.

By the way, nip outside right now and look at the moon - it's huge. And wonderful.

It's well worth seeing.

Tomorrow, Shell will be the news - and also in a positive light.

FJ :)

Thursday should certainly add support to the share price

A substantial move into the 2575 to 2675p BOX still expected,THEN up further if no disappointments


Some are already pencilling in 2975p within 3 months

FREE CASH FLOW THE MOST IMPORTANT INDICATOR FOR ME

IT WILL BE INTERESTING TO SEE WHETHER ALL THE NEW RECENT PROJECTS HAS AND WILL INCREASE AGAIN cap ex


as i say free cash flow the more important factor

AWAIT REPORT WITH IMPATIENCE

this company has changed from yesta year and can no longer be measured on the daily oil prices alone
