In other recent news, Imperial Oil reported its second-quarter earnings for 2025, showcasing a significant earnings per share (EPS) beat while missing revenue expectations. The company achieved an EPS of $1.86, exceeding the forecast of $1.57 by 18.47%. However, its revenue reached $11.23 billion, falling short of the projected $12.12 billion by 7.34%. Despite this revenue miss, BMO Capital raised its price target for Imperial Oil to $120 from $118, maintaining an Outperform rating.
