Petrobras’ Gross Debt for 2020 is $87 Billion
Due to the impacts resulting from the new coronavirus and the shock of oil prices, Petrobras informed yesterday, April 28, that it expects to conclude 2020 with gross debt of $87 billion, the same level as the closing of 201
The target set by Petrobras’ Board of Directors approved the revision of the top debt metric in the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan, replacing the net debt/EBITDA indicator with the gross debt indicator.
It is worth noting that the company continues to pursue a reduction of gross debt to US$ 60 billion. This amount is in line with the new dividend policy already announced, which provides for an increase in shareholder remuneration when gross debt reaches or falls below this level.
