Texas-based Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) is a globally diversified energy company with operations spanning the United States, the Middle East, and North Africa. It ranks among the largest oil and gas producers in the U.S., with significant positions in the Permian and DJ basins, as well as offshore in the Gulf of America. The company’s midstream and marketing segment supports the transportation and commercialization of its production, while its subsidiary, Oxy Low Carbon Ventures, focuses on developing technologies and business models aimed at lowering emissions alongside energy development.
Currently valued at a market capitalization of approximately $42.1 billion, the energy giant is gearing up to lift the curtains on its fiscal 2025 fourth-quarter earnings on Feb. 19, 2026. And ahead of this event, Wall Street is projecting a steep 58.8% year-over-year drop in Q4 earnings to $0.33 per share. Still, the company enters the results with credibility, having beaten analysts’ bottom-line estimates in each of the past four quarters.
