The Mol announcement was a major surprise – we haven't seen anything like it since 2022.

The Downstream segment reached a record high, due to increased margins, normalized product supply, and the return of Russian oil. The Upstream segment also achieved strong results, making the third quarter the strongest in the period, with net profit exceeding analyst expectations by nearly 60 percent. The reasons and sustainability will also be examined.
