Shares of Petroleo Brasileiro SA Petrobras (PBR) plummeted 5.38% in pre-market trading on Thursday, following the company's release of disappointing fourth-quarter 2024 earnings results.
Petrobras reported a net loss for the quarter, with earnings per share (EPS) coming in at $(0.44). The company's sales for the quarter reached $20.82 billion.
