OXY NYSE Oil & Gas Exploration & Production Financials FY2016βFY2025
Occidental, known as Oxy, is an energy company that finds and produces oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. Its assets are mostly in the United States, the Middle East and North Africa. It says it is among the largest oil and gas producers in the United States, with positions in the Permian and DJ Basins and the offshore Gulf of America, and that it is the largest independent oil producer in Oman.
Hi! I read Occidental Petroleumβs latest annual report (fiscal 2025). Here is what stands out:
Good So-so Weak
Are sales growing?
β1.9%
No. Sales fell 1.9% last year.
Does it make a profit?
11.0%
Yes. It keeps 11.0% of every sale as profit.
Does profit turn into cash?
19.0%
Yes. 19.0% of sales ends up as free cash.
Is debt under control?
1.7x
Keep an eye on it. Repaying its debt would take 1.7 years of operating profit.
How healthy are the accounts?
4 / 8
Mixed. It passes 4 of 8 health tests.
How is the share priced?
9.9x
One share costs 9.9 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. Occidental's 2025 filing no longer tags a total cost of sales, so gross profit and gross margin for 2025 are left blank. Shareholders' equity includes the small share of minority owners, because the SEC's structured data holds a wrong figure for Occidental's own equity in 2017.
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 Occidental Petroleum did it, and the next one. Share prices often move a lot on those days.

From SEC filings: the results press release (8-K) or, without one, the quarterly or annual report.
KIRA Β· Occidental Petroleum had $21.6B of revenue in fiscal 2025, down 1.9% on the year before. Over five years, revenue changed +3.9% a year on average.
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).

KIRA Β· Occidental Petroleum made $2.4B of net profit in fiscal 2025.
Loss periods are shown in red.
In plain words: Net income is the profit left after every cost and tax. Earnings per share (EPS) splits that profit across every share, so it shows what one share earned.

How much cash comes in, and where does it go?
KIRA Β· Free cash flow was $4.1B in fiscal 2025, 19.0% 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· Occidental Petroleum returned $1.6B to shareholders in fiscal 2025, 39% of free cash flow. The diluted share count rose 3.4%.
In plain words: Companies hand cash back in two ways: dividends (cash paid to shareholders) and buybacks (buying back their own shares, so each remaining share owns a bigger slice).

KIRA Β· In the last 12 months, insiders bought $0.4M of shares on the open market and sold 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.

Can it carry its debts, and how well does it use its money?
KIRA Β· Occidental Petroleum owes $20.4B more than it holds in cash, about 1.7 years of operating profit.
Cash, debt and the ratios that show how comfortably Occidental Petroleum can carry it.
In plain words: What the company owns and what it owes. More cash than debt is a cushion for bad times; a lot of debt leaves less room when business slows down.

KIRA Β· Its return on capital was 4.9%: every 100 invested in the business earned about 5 in a year.
After-tax operating income as a share of the money invested in the business: debt plus equity, minus cash.
In plain words: How much profit the business makes on the money put into it. A higher percentage means each dollar invested works harder.

Change the assumptions and see what they imply per share. These are models, not forecasts or price targets β the answer depends entirely on what you put in.
In plain words: Move the sliders to try your own guesses about growth. The result is what one share would be worth if those guesses came true. Different guesses give very different answers.
