Occidental Petroleum: Hold Rating Amid Balanced Prospects and Strategic CautionWe reiterate our Neutral rating on OXY into its 3Q25 earnings. The OXYChem divestiture has been its most topical update, with net debt reduction the biggest positive. However, we viewed the transaction as dilutive and reducing the organic FCF uplift in 2026-27E. On Upstream, we see operational performance remaining strong in the Permian and GoA volumes having upside due to minimal hurricane impacts.

Occidental Petroleum (OXY) Receives a Rating Update from a Top AnalystWe rate Occidental Petroleum (OXY) shares Neutral due to the company's more levered balancesheet vs. peers, its lower long-term production growth rate vs. peers, its spending on DACcarbon-capture projects, which likely lose money near-term, and its plan to sell around $5bn inassets, which is likely dilutive.

Occidental Petroleum's Strategic Moves: Enhancing Shareholder Value through Divestment and IntegrationWe believe Oxy could resume share repurchases in 2026, while remaining committed to a sustainable and growing dividend, and forecast the company to generate USD4.35bn of FCF (after dividends) in total over the next two years (2026-27e). At the current share price, Oxy could retire 99m shares or c10% of shares outstanding and still have plenty of runway to build cash ahead of plans to begin redeeming preferred equity in August 2029. Aligning O&G with Midstream. Oxy expects the OxyChem transaction to “catalyze returns from its significant oil and gas resource opportunity.” The company targets organic growth through 1) its existing assets and infrastructure, 2) improving cost efficiencies, and 3) advanced recovery and integrated technologies.
