Chord Energy
CHRD Nasdaq Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Financials FY2015βFY2025
Chord Energy's revenue fell 7.1% to $4.9 billion in fiscal 2025. Its operating margin was 4.0%, down from 20.9% a year earlier. Free cash flow was $693 million, down 24.6%. It paid out $683 million in dividends and buybacks, 99% of free cash flow. The diluted share count rose 9.7%.
About these figures. Chord doesn't report a gross profit; the only cost of sales its filings tag is a line for oil and gas it buys and resells, so gross profit and gross margin are left blank. Capital spending is Chord's (until 2022 Oasis Petroleum's) spending on drilling and developing its oil and gas properties, its main capital spending line in every year; acquisitions are a separate line. Oasis Petroleum emerged from bankruptcy in November 2020, so 2020 is split into two periods with no full-year figures and is not shown. Its old shares were cancelled, so earnings per share before and after 2020 aren't comparable.
