The market’s most important stocks, simplified

Occidental Petroleum (OXY) reported Q1 2025 earnings with mixed results. Adjusted EPS of $0.87 exceeded the consensus estimate of $0.77, but revenue of $6.84 billion fell slightly short of the $6.89 billion forecast. Operating cash flow was $2.1 billion, with capital spending at $1.9 billion, and total production reached 1,391 Mboed. The company repaid $2.3 billion in debt year-to-date, completed $1.3 billion in divestitures, and announced a $0.24 per share dividend payable on July 15, 2025. Additionally, Occidental reduced its 2025 capital guidance midpoint by $200 million and domestic operating costs by $150 million, citing efficiency gains in the Permian Basin and Gulf of America. Despite these operational improvements, concerns remain about Occidental's debt levels, particularly from the Anadarko acquisition and the $12 billion CrownRock deal. Analysts, including JPMorgan's Arun Jayaram, noted that the company's debt-reduction target is unlikely to be achieved before 2027, and its leverage and capital returns lag behind peers. While Occidental has demonstrated progress in cost optimization and deleveraging, challenges in meeting longer-term financial goals persist, especially as Q1 2025 production guidance fell below expectations due to weather and asset divestitures.
