The information below aims to provide the key macroeconomic, operational and trading conditions experienced by Galp during the first quarter of 2022.
All data referred to below is currently provisional and may differ from the final figures which will be reported on May 3, 2022.
Galp’s 1Q22 results, will be published on May 3, before the opening of Euronext Lisbon. On that day, the Company will hold a conference call and webcast at 11:30 a.m. (Lisbon/London time). Further details can be found at the end of the Trading Update document.
Financial Position
- The expected robust Adjusted Operational Cash Flow (OCF) in 1Q22 should be partially offset by a working capital build, reflecting the higher commodities prices and temporary effects from increased margin account balances from hedging positions to cover TTF vs Brent spread risks.
- Galp’s net debt is estimated to remain in line with year-end 2021, with net debt to RCA Ebitda expected to stand at <1x.
