CHRD Nasdaq Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Financials FY2015βFY2025
Chord Energy had $4.9B of revenue in fiscal 2025, down 7.1% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +20.4% a year on average.
Hi! I read Chord Energyβs latest annual report (fiscal 2025). Here is what stands out:
Good So-so Weak
Are sales growing?
β7.1%
No. Sales fell 7.1% last year.
Does it make a profit?
0.9%
A little. It keeps 0.9% of every sale as profit.
Does profit turn into cash?
14.2%
Yes. 14.2% of sales ends up as free cash.
Is debt under control?
0.8x
Yes. It could repay its debt with 0.8 years of operating profit.
How healthy are the accounts?
4 / 8
Mixed. It passes 4 of 8 health tests.
How is the share priced?
10.6x
One share costs 10.6 times its yearly profit per share. Typical for its sector: 17.4x.
Rules of thumb on reported numbers. A starting point, not a recommendation.
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.
Is it selling more, and how much does it keep?
In plain words: Every quarter, companies publish how much they sold and earned. These are the days Chord Energy did it, and the next one. Share prices often move a lot on those days.

KIRA Β· Chord Energy had $4.9B of revenue in fiscal 2025, down 7.1% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +20.4% a year on average. Its operating margin was 4.1%, down 16.9Β pts: of every 100 in sales, about 4 is left after running the business.
In plain words: Revenue is all the money customers paid. The margins show how many cents of each dollar of sales are left over at each step: after making the product (gross), after running the business (operating) and after everything, tax included (net).

How much cash comes in, and where does it go?
KIRA Β· Free cash flow was $693M in fiscal 2025, 14.2% of revenue.
Cash from operations minus capital spending.
In plain words: Profit on paper is not the same as cash in the bank. Free cash flow is the cash left after paying to run and maintain the business: the money it can hand back to shareholders, save or invest.

KIRA Β· Chord Energy returned $683M to shareholders in fiscal 2025, 99% of free cash flow. The diluted share count rose 9.7%.

KIRA Β· In the last 12 months, insiders sold $8.8M of shares on the open market and bought none.
Open-market purchases and sales by officers, directors and 10% owners, from Form 4 filings. βPlanβ marks trades under a pre-arranged Rule 10b5-1 plan.
In plain words: Insiders are the people who run or own a big part of the company. Buying with their own money can signal confidence; selling often has personal reasons, like taxes or diversifying.
