Russian Oil and Gas - 2Q19 Oils Preview: Maintaining Profits Despite Pressure on FCF

Although Urals gained 9% in 2Q19, the main macro indicators for the oil sector point to flattish EBITDA and net income in Q-o-Q terms and a decline of 10% and 20%, respectively, in y-o-y terms. The supply issue with the Druzhba pipeline could have had a negative impact on FCF generation via working capital buildups, though operations were largely unaffected. On balance, we expect Lukoil and Gazprom Neft to publish the strongest numbers. Gazprom Neft (August 8) and Rosneft will kick off earnings season next week, with Lukoil and Tatneft reporting at the end of the month.
