Highlights

The presenter is “very excited” about the upside potential for shares of LyondellBasell (LYB) over the coming 12-24 months. He is long the stock, and explained his view that a combination of the company’s earnings power and capital deployment strategy justify a substantially higher stock price ($140). LYB appears to be generating what he considers to be trough EBITDA and EPS of $6.5 - $7 billion, and at ~$91 the FCF yield is ~8%. If oil stays in the low $50s per barrel, he thinks the company can generate $10 of EPS in 2017, but with the share repurchase activity and any recovery in Crude, the earnings power could be above $12 - $13 per share (in 2017).
