Article Summary
HOLD- Petrobras (NYSE: PBR) investors will vote Thursday on a new board as the state-controlled oil giant faces mounting pressure from surging crude prices tied to the Iran war and pressure from investors to raise domestic fuel prices.
- The government, led by Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva, holds a controlling stake and has nominated eight candidates for the 11-seat board, while shareholder advisory firms are backing opposition nominees who could challenge government influence over PBR's strategy.
- The incoming board will also face strategic decisions around refining, with the government pushing for greater self-sufficiency in fuel production even though refining offers lower margins than Petrobras's core upstream business.
- PBR has kept prices steady to shield consumers from volatility, a stance analysts say may not be sustainable if oil remains elevated.
