Commenting on the results, Aramco President & CEO Amin H. Nasser said:

“We have delivered market-leading performance once again, with strong earnings and cash flows in the first half of the year. Leveraging these strong earnings, we continued to deliver a base dividend that is sustainable and progressive, and a performance-linked dividend that shares the upside with our shareholders.

“We have also continued to create and deliver both value and growth, as demonstrated by the positive investor response to the government’s secondary public offering of Aramco shares and our recent $6 billion bond issuance. Our drive to create value is supported by our distinctive long-term competitive advantages, our exceptional financial resilience through cycles, and our strong balance sheet.

“Building on these strengths, we also made significant progress in key strategic areas during the second quarter from advancing our gas program and expanding our new energies portfolio, to partnering with leading car manufacturers on lower-emission vehicle technologies and growing our global retail network.

“These are exciting times for Aramco as we continue to seek new opportunities to enhance our portfolio and our capabilities to enable a secure and more sustainable energy future.”
