Eni Reports 3Q Net Loss on Oil Slump

Updated on

Eni SpA, Italy’s largest energy producer, said profit was wiped out in the third quarter after its gas and power unit reported a wider loss and higher taxes hurt exploration and production.

The total adjusted net loss was 257 million euros ($281 million) compared with net income of 1.17 billion euros a year earlier, the Rome-based company said Thursday in a statement. The adjusted operating loss at the gas and power division expanded to 469 million euros from 180 million euros.
