77

out of 100

ConocoPhillips grows profitably: it increases revenue at double digits (24.1% a year) without giving up profitability (net margin 12.6%). On fundamental quality it scores 77 out of 100, profiling it as a company with solid fundamentals. Its weakest area is its growth (revenue +24.1%/yr). Whether it's cheap or expensive depends on the current price, which you can compute in the tool.

What the company does

ConocoPhillips is one of the world's largest independent oil companies, focused on exploring and producing oil and gas (it doesn't do refining or gas stations). Its business depends almost entirely on commodity prices.

What will shape its future

  • The price of oil and gas, the main driver of its profits and outside its control.
  • Its cost discipline and the quality of its acreage to make money even at low prices.
  • Its policy of returning cash to shareholders (dividends and buybacks) and its large LNG projects.
