    Another View on TotalEnergies’ Valuation

    Spot prices make TotalEnergies look appealing, with the share trading at a P/E of 11.3x. That is slightly above the immediate peer average of 11.2x, yet well below the European Oil and Gas group on 13.4x and the fair ratio estimate of 18.9x.

    This mix suggests the stock carries less optimism than the fair ratio points to, even after the recent rally. That raises the question of whether this reflects a margin of safety or a market view that there is meaningful execution risk in the transition story.
