TotalEnergies stock remained in focus on Thursday, November 12, after the energy group reported stronger third-quarter cash generation and maintained its shareholder-return plans. In its October 29 newsroom release, TotalEnergies reported adjusted net income of 9.1 billion US dollars and cash flow of 12.3 billion US dollars for the third quarter of 2026. TotalEnergies stock traded at 80.52 euros on Lang & Schwarz at 17:41 CET on Thursday, November 12, 2026, 0.02 percent above the Xetra close of Thursday.
Quarterly Cash Generation Improves
The company said its integrated business model and geographic diversification helped it benefit from strong market conditions, historically high refining margins and a bullish gas market. Net gearing fell below 10 percent at the end of the third quarter, improving financial flexibility for investment and capital returns.
The reported adjusted figures exclude the after-tax inventory effect, non-recurring items and changes in fair value. That distinction matters for investors assessing how much of the quarterly improvement reflects operating performance rather than valuation effects.
Dividend And Buybacks Continue
The board confirmed a third interim dividend of 0.90 euros per share for fiscal 2026, 5.9 percent above the comparable payment in 2025. It also authorized share buybacks for cancellation of 2.5 billion US dollars in the fourth quarter of 2026 and a further 2.5 billion US dollars in the first quarter of 2027.
