<strong>Oil</strong> price leverage: Ways to capture medium-term value from a bullish oil price view<br />

The companies in our oil price leverage screen exhibit high sensitivity to the oil price. This is usually the result of a combination of<br />

high operating or financial leverage, exposure to oil assets and a lack of exposure to production sharing contracts (PSCs) which<br />

generally reduce sensitivity to the commodity price. We exclude companies with high levels of risk from this screen in order to<br />

provide a cleaner exposure to our assumption of a rising oil price.<br />

Noreco, Nautical, PA Resources, Bankers and I<strong>Gas</strong> are the stocks in our <strong>Oil</strong> Price Leverage screen.<br />

Exhibit 16: <strong>Oil</strong> price levered stocks typically have high operating leverage and exposure to oil assets located in licence regimes<br />
