The Brazilian State Oil Company Petrobras Reported Its Highest Quarterly Profit on Thursday, Easily Surpassing Analysts’ Estimates, Thanks Largely to Billions of Reais in Asset Sales.

In a record release, Petrobras, as the company is known, said that its net income for the second quarter was 18.87 billion reais (US $ 4.92 billion). This was well above the Refinitiv consensus estimate of 8.06 billion reais at current exchange rates.

Adjusted for non-recurring items, the net income would have reached 5.2 billion reais, said CEO Roberto Castello Branco in written comments accompanying the results.

The earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA), a closely watched indicator, given the many losses and one-time gains of Petrobras in recent years, hit market estimates. Petrobras reported that EBITDA reached 32.67 billion reais, almost exactly in line with Refinitiv’s estimate of 32.7 billion.
