“Despite heightened geopolitical volatility and related supply disruptions, Chevron delivered solid first quarter performance, underscoring the resilience of our portfolio and the value of disciplined execution,” said Mike Wirth, Chevron’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Strong operating results in the United States, particularly following the integration of Hess, and continued growth in the Gulf of America and Permian Basin, drove higher production while maintaining financial flexibility.”
“Our U.S. refineries operated at record crude throughput in March, capital spending remains within guidance, and our structural cost reductions are firmly on track,” Wirth continued. “This disciplined performance supports dependable cash generation, enabling us to continue returning significant capital to shareholders, while investing in advantaged long-lived assets.”

“We continue to closely monitor developments in the Middle East with a focus on the safety of our workforce and the integrity of our assets and operations,” Wirth concluded. “The unpredictable external environment reinforces the importance of disciplined investment to ensure reliable energy supply and global energy security.”

Financial Highlights
•Reported earnings decreased compared to first quarter 2025 primarily due to unfavorable timing effects of approximately $2.9 billion. These effects include timing mismatches in earnings recognition related to the mark‑to‑market of financial derivatives prior to the physical delivery of the associated hydrocarbons, as well as the impact of LIFO inventory accounting. Excluding those unfavorable effects, earnings improved due to upstream production growth and higher refining margins.
•Production in the first quarter of 2026 was higher than first quarter last year largely due to the acquisition of Hess Corporation (Hess) and growth in the Gulf of America and the Permian Basin, partly offset by downtime at the company’s 50 percent owned affiliate Tengizchevroil (TCO) and curtailments in the Middle East (Israel and the Partitioned Zone between Saudi Arabia and Kuwait). U.S. production exceeded 2 million oil-equivalent barrels per day for the third consecutive quarter.
•U.S. refinery crude unit throughput remains over 1 million barrels per day for the fifth consecutive quarter and achieved a record in March 2026.
•Capex in the first quarter of 2026 was higher than last year largely due to spend on legacy Hess assets, partially offset by lower spend in the Permian Basin.
•Cash flow from operations in the first quarter of 2026 was lower than a year ago primarily due to higher working capital outflows largely resulting from the sharp increase in commodity prices in March 2026. Adjusted free cash flow benefited from a $1 billion loan repayment from TCO.
•The company returned $6.0 billion of cash to shareholders during the quarter, including share repurchases of $2.5 billion and dividends of $3.5 billion.
•The company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of one dollar and seventy-eight cents ($1.78) per share, payable June 10, 2026, to all holders of common stock as shown on the transfer records of the corporation at the close of business on May 19, 2026.
Business Highlights and Milestones
•Announced an agreement in Venezuela to expand Chevron’s heavy oil interest in the Petroindependencia, S.A. joint venture and include rights to develop the adjacent Ayacucho 8 area at the Petropiar, S.A. joint venture in the Orinoco Oil Belt.

•Entered into an exclusivity agreement with Microsoft and Engine No. 1 related to a proposed power generation and electricity offtake agreement to support the power project under development in West Texas.
•Expansions at Tamar and Leviathan in Israel have achieved start-up, adding production capacity to support growing demand and regional energy security.
•Reached a final investment decision on the Aseng gas project in Equatorial Guinea, advancing the country's efforts to expand its role in global gas markets.
•Discovered oil at the Bandit prospect in Green Canyon Block 680 in the Gulf of America, through a non-operated joint venture.
•Entered Libya as a winning bidder in the Sirte Basin, expanding the company’s exploration portfolio with high-quality acreage and high-impact prospects.
•Awarded four offshore exploration leases in Greece, further expanding the company's position in the Eastern Mediterranean region.
•Farmed into the OFF-7 block in Uruguay, building depth in the exploration portfolio.

NOTICE
Chevron’s discussion of first quarter 2026 earnings with security analysts will take place on Friday, May 1, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. CT. A webcast of the meeting will be available in a listen-only mode to individual investors, media, and other interested parties on Chevron’s website at www.chevron.com under the “Investors” section. Prepared remarks for today’s call, additional financial and operating information and other complementary materials will be available prior to the call at approximately 5:30 a.m. CT and located under “Events and Presentations” in the “Investors” section on the Chevron website. Chevron also publishes a “Sensitivities and Forward Guidance” document with consolidated guidance and sensitivities that is updated quarterly and posted to the Chevron website the month prior to earnings calls.
As used in this news release, the term “Chevron” and such terms as “the company,” “the corporation,” “our,” “we,” “us” and “its” may refer to Chevron Corporation, one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries, or to all of them taken as a whole. All of these terms are used for convenience only and are not intended as a precise description of any of the separate companies, each of which manages its own affairs. Structural cost reductions describe decreases in operating expenses from operational efficiencies, divestments, and other cost saving measures that are expected to be sustainable compared with 2024 levels.
Please visit Chevron’s website and Investor Relations page at www.chevron.com and www.chevron.com/investors, LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/chevron, X: @Chevron, Facebook: www.facebook.com/chevron, and Instagram: www.instagram.com/chevron, where Chevron often discloses important information about the company, its business, and its results of operations.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures - This news release includes adjusted earnings/(loss), which reflect earnings or losses excluding significant non-operational items including impairment charges, write-offs, decommissioning obligations from previously sold assets, severance costs, gains on asset sales, legal reserves for ceased operations, fair value adjustments for investments in equity securities, unusual tax items, effects of pension settlements and curtailments, foreign currency effects and other special items. We believe it is useful for investors to consider this measure in comparing the underlying performance of our business across periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) as prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation to net income (loss) attributable to Chevron Corporation is shown in Attachment 4.
This news release also includes cash flow from operations excluding working capital, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow. Cash flow from operations excluding working capital is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less net changes in operating working capital, and represents cash generated by operating activities excluding the timing impacts of working capital. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less capital expenditures and generally represents the cash available to creditors and investors after investing in the business. Adjusted free cash flow is defined as free cash flow excluding working capital plus proceeds and deposits related to asset sales and returns of investments plus net repayment (borrowing) of loans by equity affiliates and generally represents the cash available to creditors and investors after investing in the business excluding the timing impacts of working capital. The company believes these measures are useful to monitor the financial health of the company and its performance over time. Reconciliations of cash flow from operations excluding working capital, free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are shown in Attachment 3.
This news release also includes net debt ratio and net debt-to-CFFO ratio. Net debt ratio is defined as total debt less cash and cash equivalents, time deposits and marketable securities (net debt) as a percentage of net debt plus Chevron Corporation stockholders’ equity, which indicates the company’s leverage, net of its cash balances. The net debt-to-CFFO ratio is defined as net debt divided by CFFO for the prior four quarters, which measures the company’s ability to cover its net debt using the cash it generates from operations. The company believes these measures are useful to monitor the strength of the company’s balance sheet. A reconciliation of net debt ratio and net debt-to-CFFO ratio is shown in Attachment 2.
