Shares of energy companies are trading lower. The sector may be seeing weakness due to recession worries because of the uncertainty surrounding tariffs and trade policy.

Frontline Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FRO#NYSE">FRO</a>) reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.frontlineplc.cy/fro-fourth-quarter-and-full-year-2024-results/" rel="noreferrer noopener">fourth-quarter</a> revenue growth of 6.9% year-over-year to $443.491 million, surpassing the $300.67 million consensus.
Adjusted EPS for the quarter declined to 20 cents from 46 cents a year ago, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the consensus of 36 cents.</a>
Reported spot TCEs for VLCCs, Suezmax tankers, and LR2/Aframax tankers were $35,900 (vs. $39,200 last year), $33,300 (vs. $45,700 last year) and $26,100&nbsp;(vs. $42,900 prior year) per day.
At the close of the fourth quarter of 2024, contracted ballast days totaled 1,116 for VLCCs, 238 for Suezmax tankers, and 174 for LR2/Aframax tankers.
Net operating income for the quarter declined to $129.72 million from $138.05 million a year ago, and margin contracted 400 bps to 29.3%.
Operating cash flow was $167.85 million in the fourth quarter, compared to $100.49 million in the same quarter a year ago. For 2024, it stood at $736.41 million, down from $856.18 million a year ago. Frontline held cash and cash equivalents of $413.53 million as of the quarter end.
The Board declared a $0.20 per share dividend for the fourth quarter, with a record date of March 14, 2025, ex-dividend dates of March 13 (Oslo) and March 14 (NYSE), and payment on March 31, 2025.
As of December 31, 2024, the Company owned a fleet of 81 vessels, including 41 VLCCs, 22 Suezmax tankers, and 18 LR2/Aframax tankers, with a total capacity of approximately 17.8 million DWT.
"The fourth quarter of 2024 came in unusually soft compared to previous years. Global oil demand was up marginally as the year came to an end, but global seaborne exports slowed in the fourth quarter. During the quarter we saw positive developments in the enforcement of sanctions against Iran and Russia in particular, but we could not escape the fact that these two countries represent a material part of the supply to Asia, at cost to demand for the vessels Frontline operates," commented Lars H. Barstad, Chief Executive Officer of Frontline Management.
"For 2025 we have already seen broader sanctions with a wider scope, at the same time as key importers of exposed crude are diversifying away from the mentioned suppliers. Compliant fleet growth for the asset classes we deploy peaked a few years back, making the outlook very constructive as Frontline sail into the new year with our cost-efficient operations and modern fleet," added Barstad.
Outlook: Frontline expects spot TCEs for the first quarter of 2025 to be lower than the currently contracted rates, primarily due to the impact of ballast days.
Price Action: FRO shares traded higher by 1.05% at $15.47 premarket at last check Friday.

Jefferies Maintains Buy on Frontline, Maintains $26 Price Target

Frontline Plc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FRO#NYSE">FRO</a>) shares are down following mixed third-quarter results. Revenue rose 29.9% year-over-year to $490.4 million, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/42207256" rel="noreferrer noopener">surpassing the $361.42 million consensus.</a>
Reported spot TCEs for VLCCs, Suezmax tankers, and LR2/Aframax tankers were $39,600 (vs. $42,500 last year), $39,900 (vs. $37,600 last year) and $36,000 (vs. $33,900 prior year) per day.
In the quarter, ballast days totaled 947 days for VLCCs, 331 days for Suezmax tankers, and 255 days for LR2/Aframax tankers.
Net operating income for the quarter improved to $144.81 million from $114.752 million a year ago. Adjusted EPS was $0.34 versus $0.36 a year ago, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the consensus of $0.45.</a>
Operating cash flow was $164.553 million in the third quarter, compared to $202.532 million in the same quarter a year ago. Frontline held cash and cash equivalents of $320.885 million as of the quarter end.
As of September 30, 2024, the company&#8217;s 82-vessel fleet (17.9M DWT) averages 6.4 years, with 46 scrubber-fitted Eco vessels. Six vessels (1 VLCC, 1 Suezmax, 4 LR2/Aframax) were on long-term charters over 12 months.
In October 2024, the company secured a $512.1 million sale-and-leaseback deal with CMB Financial for 10 Suezmax tankers.
Dividend: The company declared a dividend of $0.34 per share for the&nbsp;third quarter&nbsp;of 2024, payable on December 31, with a record date of December 11.
&#8220;The third quarter of 2024 performed in line with seasonal expectations, as oil demand slowed over the summer months and domestic demand by oil exporting countries in the Middle East increased. We continue to sail in a troubled geopolitical landscape and with lower year-on-year demand in Asia, and especially China, the tanker markets have yet to experience the seasonal upswing into winter. The increase in sanctioned oil trade and movement of illicit barrels have negatively impacted our trade environment,&#8221; commented Lars H. Barstad, Chief Executive Officer of Frontline Management AS.
Inger M. Klemp, Chief Financial Officer of Frontline Management AS, added, &#8220;In 2024 we have optimized the capital structure of the Company by refinancing debt of 36 vessels, which has extended maturities and improved margins, divesting eight older vessels and the subsequent repayment of the Hemen shareholder loan and the $275.0 million senior unsecured revolving credit facility with an affiliate of Hemen in an aggregate amount of $470.0 million.&#8221;
Outlook: Frontline expects the spot TCEs for the fourth quarter&nbsp;to be lower than the spot TCEs currently contracted due to the impact of ballast days during the quarter.
Price Action: FRO shares are trading lower by 7.03% at $16.81 premarket at the last check Wednesday.
