OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORP /DE/ 8-K

What Happened
On May 5, 2026, Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) announced its financial condition and quarterly results for the period ended March 31, 2026 via a press release. The company furnished the press release as Exhibit 99.1 to the Form 8-K. The filing notes that the information is furnished (not “filed”) under the Exchange Act, and therefore is not incorporated by reference into other filings except by explicit reference.

Key Details

• Press release announcing Q1 2026 results dated May 5, 2026 (furnished as Exhibit 99.1).
• Quarter covered: three months ended March 31, 2026.
• Company treated the release as “furnished,” not “filed,” under Section 18 of the Exchange Act.
• Form 8-K signed by Christopher O. Champion, Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer (controller).

Why It Matters
This 8-K signals that Occidental has released its quarterly earnings and related financial metrics (earnings, revenue, cash flow, production and any guidance will be in the press release). Retail investors should read the Exhibit 99.1 press release to see the company’s reported revenue, net income or loss, operational metrics and any commentary on outlook. The filing’s “furnished” status is a legal detail that generally limits incorporation of the release into other SEC filings and affects the scope of certain liabilities under the Exchange Act.
