Welcome to our dedicated page for Bp Plc SEC filings (Ticker: BP), a comprehensive resource for investors and traders seeking official regulatory documents including 10-K annual reports, 10-Q quarterly earnings, 8-K material events, and insider trading forms.
BP p.l.c. (BP) files as a foreign private issuer with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, using Form 20-F for annual reporting and Form 6-K for current reports. These SEC filings provide detailed insight into BP’s financial performance, capital structure, share activity, and significant corporate developments across its integrated oil and gas operations.
Recent 6-K filings illustrate the breadth of information available to investors. The third-quarter 2025 group results (filed 4 November 2025) include segment-level replacement cost profit figures, operating cash flow, capital expenditure, divestment proceeds, and commentary on refining margins, upstream production, and gas & low carbon energy performance. A 4Q25 trading statement filed on 14 January 2026 offers updated guidance on reported upstream production, expected impacts of realizations in gas & low carbon energy and oil production & operations, and anticipated adjusting items related to impairments in transition businesses.
BP’s filings also cover share capital and buybacks. Multiple 6-Ks in late 2025 detail “Total voting rights and share capital,” specifying the number of ordinary and preference shares outstanding and the volume of treasury shares. A series of exhibits titled “Share Repurchases” and “Transaction in Own Shares” document daily repurchases on the London Stock Exchange and Cboe (UK), including volumes, prices, and the intention to transfer repurchased shares into treasury. These disclosures allow investors to track BP’s execution of its share buyback programmes and changes in voting rights.
Other filings address debt and listing status. A Form 25 (25-NSE) dated 18 December 2025, filed by the New York Stock Exchange, relates to the removal from listing and/or registration of specific BP-guaranteed notes due 2026. This Form 25 identifies the securities as guaranteed notes and does not concern BP’s ordinary shares or American Depositary Shares.
Strategic transactions and governance changes also appear in 6-K exhibits. The 24 December 2025 filing includes a press release on BP’s agreement to sell a 65% shareholding in Castrol to Stonepeak, explaining expected net proceeds, planned use of proceeds to reduce net debt, and the structure of the new joint venture. A 17 December 2025 6-K announces a leadership transition, naming Meg O’Neill as BP’s next CEO and outlining interim arrangements and advisory roles.

BP p.l.c. issues a trading statement outlining expectations for fourth-quarter and full-year 2025 results. Reported upstream production in the fourth quarter is expected to be broadly flat versus the prior quarter, with oil production & operations broadly flat and gas & low carbon energy lower. Segment results are being affected by weaker realizations, with gas & low carbon energy and oil production & operations each seeing estimated negative impacts of up to several hundred million dollars compared with the third quarter.
Customers & products is expected to face seasonally lower customer volumes and broadly flat fuels margins, while stronger realized refining margins of around $0.1 billion are offset by heavier turnaround activity and temporary capacity loss after a fire at the Whiting refinery; the oil trading result is expected to be weak. Fourth-quarter results are expected to include post-tax impairments of $(4) to (5) billion, mainly in transition businesses in gas & low carbon energy, excluded from underlying replacement cost profit. Net debt is expected between $22 and $23 billion versus $26.1 billion at the end of the third quarter, supported by about $3.5 billion of divestment proceeds in the quarter and around $5.3 billion for the full year. The underlying effective tax rate for 2025 is now expected to be about 42%, up from prior guidance of around 40%. Full-year and fourth-quarter 2025 results are scheduled for publication on 10 February 2026.
