Business

Is the company getting stronger, not just bigger? · 4 findings
−10 of −30
  • ROIC and margin
    ROIC 12.0% and operating margin 11.2% TTM are a cyclical peak: in 2024–2025 ROIC was only 5.4–6.5% and the operating margin 5.0–5.6%, and the net margin has been 3.3–6.3% throughout 2021–2026.
    −3
  • Quality of growth
    Revenue is largely flat (€44.5bn in 2021 vs €48.3bn in 2025); the 2026 lift comes from refining margins (Industrial 1,243 of 1,838m adjusted earnings in Q2) and an inventory gain of €823m. Analysts expect EPS +106% in 2026 and −25% in 2027.
    −3
  • Moat and pricing power
    Repsol is a price taker on both crude oil and refining margins; the gross margin has been 26–28% in 2021–2025, and only the peaks in oil and product prices lift it (31.6% TTM).
    −2
  • Future segment
    Low Carbon Generation delivered only €10m in adjusted earnings in Q2 2026, and Repsol is selling 49.99% of a 705 MW portfolio to Masdar for about €150m – the transition segment is not growing into a core earnings driver.
    −2

Price

Today's multiples against the company's own history and its peers. · 2 findings
−9 of −35
  • Multiples vs own history
    Forward P/E 6.7 vs 4.2–6.3 in 2021–2025 (above the top), trailing P/E 9.7 vs 4.9–9.6 (at the top), P/B 1.11 vs 0.47–0.79 and P/FCF 14.4 vs 4.8–10.9 – all above its own range; only EV/EBITDA 4.7 vs 2.5–6.8 is mid-range.
    −6
  • Earnings at a cyclical peak
    The share has risen 90% in a year; the low forward P/E rests on EPS of EUR 5.07 in 2026 (from 2.46) at high oil and refining prices, while analysts already expect 3.79 in 2027 – at normalised earnings the multiple is markedly higher.
    −3

Cracks

Cash flow, customers, debt, insiders, guidance and what sits behind the headline numbers. · 2 findings
−5 of −35
  • Venezuela
    Receivables from PDVSA of €4,080m (provisioned €3,295m) and financing of €1,036m; the booked exposure rose to €361m as of 30/6-2026 from €276m, and Repsol is postponing recovery in order to use the oil payments to increase production in the country.
    −3
  • The EU methane regulation
    Repsol stated on 24/9-2026 that only 10–15% of the company's crude supply is confirmed as compliant with the EU's methane requirements from 1/1-2027, and that it continues to sign contracts without methane clauses; a postponement has been proposed but not adopted.
    −2

Plus

Only documented strengths. · 3 findings
+3 of +15
  • Low leverage
    Net debt fell to €3.67bn at the end of Q2 (−€1.13bn in the quarter) despite an inventory build of €2.4bn; net debt/EBITDA about 0.6x and interest cover 11x.
    +1
  • Buybacks
    Dividend €1.21bn + buybacks €0.17bn TTM vs. FCF €2.23bn; new buyback of €500m after a completed programme of €350m and a third planned in October; the share count has fallen 4.5% over a year.
    +1
  • New projects in operation
    The Pikka field in Alaska started production in H1 2026, and the renewable fuels plant in Puertollano is in operation.
    +1

Caveats

What the score does not capture, or where the data is weak.
Adjusted net result H1 2026 was €2,711m vs reported €2,201m; reported earnings also include a positive inventory effect of €823m from higher oil prices, which is not repeatable. Stockanalysis' fall in share count (−4.5%) matches the share capital (1,157 → 1,105m shares in 2025) and the cancellation of 15.8m shares in July 2026; 'Issuance of Common Stock' (€753m TTM) is the sale of minority stakes, not share issuance. FCF after leasing (about €0.5bn a year) is about €1.7bn TTM and still covers dividend + buyback of €1.38bn. The price (€29.80) is above the average price target (€28.51) and the median (€26.50); several targets were raised in September, others are stale after the +90% price rise – not used as a finding. Spanish energy tax, Libya/Algeria and insider trading have not been examined. Credit rating has not been examined.
