Aramco ’s shares climbed slightly higher today after media reports that the company planned to sell more shares as soon as next month. The news about a planned sale was exclusively reported by Reuters, which cited two unnamed sources as saying there were such intentions at Aramco . One of these sources said the deal could bag Aramco some $10 billion in proceeds.
According to some reports, the Saudi government has been having trouble making the project work financially and was in need of fresh cash. Aramco reported first-quarter profits of $27.3 billion. This was down from $31.9 billion for the same period of 2023, due to lower crude oil volumes sold, weakening refining and chemicals margins, and lower finance and other income.
