Summary

Occidental Petroleum reported second-quarter 2026 net income attributable to common stockholders of $2.8 billion, or $2.75 per diluted share, and adjusted EPS from continuing operations of $2.40, alongside a quarterly dividend increase of 8% to $0.28 per share and a $1.9 billion reduction in principal debt to $11.8 billion. CEO Richard Jackson said the company expects significant free cash flow growth by 2030 through advanced recovery capabilities, cost efficiencies and a strong balance sheet.

Key points

  • Global production averaged 1,433 Mboed in the quarter, above the high end of guidance, with the Permian and Gulf of America units outperforming.
  • Occidental generated $5.1 billion of operating cash flow from continuing operations and $3.0 billion of free cash flow before working capital, its highest since the third quarter of 2022, on capital expenditures of $1.6 billion.
  • Oil and gas pre-tax income was $2.8 billion versus $1.0 billion in the first quarter, driven by a 38% rise in average worldwide realized crude oil prices to $96.78 per barrel, partly offset by lower domestic natural gas prices.
  • The dividend is payable October 15, 2026 to stockholders of record as of September 10, 2026.
