As of Mar 31, 2024, Petrobras (PBR) records a net debt of $43,646 million. The company ends the quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $11,547 million.
The next chief executive of Petrobras, Magda Chambriard, arrives with the résumé and mandate to make Brazil's state-run oil firm what it was under prior Workers Party governments: an engine of job creation and industrial development, said people familiar with the matter. President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva - who used Petrobras to spur domestic shipbuilding and major refinery projects during his earlier 2002-2010 presidency - has tapped the four-decade petroleum industry veteran to reboot that vision, sources said. Petrobras shares tumbled on Wednesday on news of the CEO swap, as investors balked at the prospect of more intense capital spending that may mean sacrificing the generous dividends of recent years.
