Occidental Petroleum Corp (NYSE:OXY) Beats Q2 2025 Earnings and Revenue Estimates Amid Debt Reduction Progress

Occidental Petroleum Corp (NYSE:OXY) reported its second-quarter 2025 financial results, delivering revenue and earnings per share (EPS) that exceeded analyst expectations. The market reaction has been moderately positive, with shares rising approximately 0.87% in after-hours trading following the release.

Key Financial Highlights

• Revenue: Reported at $6.456 billion, surpassing the consensus estimate of $6.339 billion.
• Earnings Per Share (EPS): Came in at $0.39, beating the estimated $0.2885.
• Debt Reduction Progress: The company has repaid approximately $7.5 billion in debt since April 2025, supported by $950 million in proceeds from recent asset sales.

Market Reaction & Performance Context

The positive after-hours movement suggests investor approval of the earnings beat, though broader performance trends show some weakness:

• Last Week: -4.21%
• Last Two Weeks: -4.28%
• Last Month: -6.65%

This indicates that while the earnings report provided a short-term boost, longer-term concerns—potentially around oil price volatility or debt levels—may still weigh on sentiment.

• Q3 2025 Revenue Estimate: $6.59 billion
• Q3 2025 EPS Estimate: $0.566
• Full-Year 2025 Revenue Estimate: $26.527 billion
