BP's headline issued-share figure already excludes 782,141,266 treasury shares; the gross issued count is 16,486,312,994. Do not subtract treasury twice.
Share counts move on a filing cadence, prices move continuously — so this figure is exact only as of the two dates above, and we publish both rather than a single undated number. This company is quoted here through a depositary receipt (BP), where one receipt represents 6 ordinary shares; the price is put on an ordinary-share basis before it meets the share count. Provenance.

Market cap / net income 84.7× — a market value from 2026-08-28 divided by earnings for a year that ended 2025-12-31. The two dates are far apart on purpose: this is arithmetic on two published numbers, not a valuation.
Every figure above is read from the same 20-F, filed 2026-03-06, and each row names the XBRL tag it came from so it can be checked against the document. Metrics absent from that filing are absent here rather than sourced from a different year — a table mixing periods is individually true and collectively meaningless.
