Fundamentals
Valuation and ratings
BP p.l.c. trades at $7.34, close to the $8.08 our fair value estimate puts on the business. On this measure the market and the model broadly agree, so the interesting question is which of them is wrong.
Our moat model scores it 43 out of 100, which is little in the way of a moat. A moat is a structural reason competitors cannot take the profits away, and it matters more to a long holding period than any single quarter's numbers do.
It changes hands at 34.4 times earnings. Be careful reading that in isolation: for a cyclical business a low P/E arrives at the top of the cycle, when profits are peaking and about to fall, which is exactly when the shares look cheapest and are not.

Common questions
Is BP p.l.c. (BPAQF) undervalued?
Against our fair value estimate of $8.08, BPAQF at $7.34 is 10% below fair value. That is one model's answer, not a recommendation. It is built from normalized earning power with growth capped deliberately low, which understates companies whose value is mostly future growth.
What is BPAQF's P/E ratio?
BPAQF trades at 34.4 times earnings. A low P/E is not automatically cheap: on a cyclical company it is usually a warning that earnings are at a peak.
Does BP p.l.c. (BPAQF) pay a dividend?
Yes. BP p.l.c. yields 4.61% at the current share price. It has paid $0.083 per share over the trailing twelve months. It has paid a dividend in each of the last 7 complete calendar years. A dividend is declared by the board and can be cut at any time; a yield is a fact about the current price, not a promise.
