OMV reported a clean CCS EBIT of EUR 1,160 mn in Q1 2025, down 16% quarter-on-quarter and 22% year-on-year, missing the market consensus of EUR 1,232 mn. The shortfall was primarily driven by the continued weak performance of the refining segment, which also disappointed significantly in Q4.
The company reported a clean CCS operating profit of RON 1,257 mn, representing a 32% increase QoQ but a 29% decline YoY. Operational performance remained broadly stable compared to the previous quarter, if we take into consideration that Q4 results were significantly impacted by year-end impairments in the E&P segment totalling RON 630 mn. The results are in line with our expectations and the market consensus, although outlook worsened for the coming quarters.
