Approximately 60% of 4Q22 profit came from the LNG business.

The annualized dividend per ADS was boosted 15% to $2.30 (from $2.00). At the current ADS share price ($57.26), the yield is 4.0%.

Despite all of the above, SHEL is trading slightly down today because investors think SHEL’s business can’t get any better.
