Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial StatementsOccidental Petroleum Corporation and Subsidiaries
NOTE 1 - GENERAL

NATURE OF OPERATIONS

Occidental conducts its operations through various subsidiaries and affiliates. Occidental has made its disclosures in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles as they apply to interim reporting, and condensed or omitted, as permitted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and regulations, certain information and disclosures normally included in Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto. These unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and the notes thereto in Occidental's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the opinion of Occidental’s management, the accompanying unaudited Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in this report reflect all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) that are necessary to fairly present Occidental’s results of operations and cash flows for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 and Occidental’s financial position as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. Certain data in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements and notes for prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The income and cash flows for the periods ended September 30, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the income or cash flows to be expected for the full year.

CASH EQUIVALENTS AND RESTRICTED CASH EQUIVALENTS

Occidental considers all highly liquid investments with a maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents or restricted cash equivalents. The cash equivalents and restricted cash equivalents balances for the periods presented included investments in government money market funds in which the carrying value approximates fair value.

The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents as reported in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Cash Flows as of September 30, 2022 and 2021:

millions20222021
Cash and cash equivalents$1,233$2,059

SUPPLEMENTAL CASH FLOW INFORMATION

The following table represents U.S. federal, domestic, state and international income taxes paid, tax refunds received and interest paid related to continuing operations during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively:

millions20222021

Interest paid (a)$1,236$1,432

(a) Net of capitalized interest of $50 million and $46 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively.

BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY OWNERSHIP

Berkshire Hathaway is a related party of Occidental due to its ownership of Occidental's common stock. During the third quarter of 2022, Berkshire Hathaway increased its ownership in Occidental to approximately 194 million shares of common stock. Occidental has, from time to time, contracted with Berkshire Hathaway for the provision of electricity, rail and insurance. In addition, certain Berkshire Hathaway subsidiaries purchase various chemicals from our chemical segment. While these types of transactions between Berkshire Hathaway and Occidental have not been significant, Occidental will continue to assess the financial significance of our transactions with Berkshire Hathaway and its subsidiaries.

WES INVESTMENT

In July 2022, Occidental sold 10.0 million limited partner units of WES for proceeds of $253 million, resulting in a gain of $62 million. As of September 30, 2022, Occidental owned all of the 2.3% non-voting general partner interest and 49.4% of the limited partner units in WES. On a combined basis, with its 2% non-voting limited partner interest in WES Operating, Occidental's total effective economic interest in WES and its subsidiaries was 51.5%.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS

The nine months ended 2021 included a $412 million after-tax loss contingency in discontinued operations associated with its former operations in Ecuador, which was primarily recorded in the first quarter of 2021. See Note 9 - Lawsuits, Claims, Commitments and Contingencies. In addition, the results of operations for Ghana for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, an after-tax loss of $32 million, are presented as discontinued operations. The Ghana assets were sold in October 2021.

NOTE 2 - REVENUE

Revenue from customers is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied; this generally occurs with the delivery of oil, NGL, gas, chemicals or services, such as transportation. As of September 30, 2022, trade receivables, net, of $4.0 billion represent rights to payment for which Occidental has satisfied its obligations under a contract and its right to payment is conditioned only on the passage of time.

The following table shows a reconciliation of revenue from customers to total net sales for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

NOTE 4 - DIVESTITURES AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS

In November 2021, Occidental entered into an agreement to sell certain non-strategic assets in the Permian Basin. The transaction closed in January 2022 for net cash proceeds of approximately $190 million. The difference in the proved assets' net book value and adjusted purchase price was treated as a normal retirement, which resulted in no gain or loss being recognized. The difference in the unproved assets' net book value and adjusted purchase price resulted in a gain on sale of approximately $123 million. The gain has been presented within gains on sales of assets and equity investments, net in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.

DEBT ACTIVITY

In the third quarter of 2022, Occidental repaid debt with maturities ranging from 2024 through 2048 and a face value of $1.3 billion.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2022, Occidental used $8.3 billion of cash to repay debt maturities ranging from 2022 through 2049 with a face value of $9.4 billion and a net book value of $8.7 billion, which resulted in a gain of $143 million. Subsequent to September 30, 2022, but before the date of this filing, Occidental repaid additional debt principal of $191 million with maturities ranging from 2024 to 2049. Following these repayments, the face value of Occidental's debt was $18.9 billion.

In October, Occidental exercised a par call for all $340 million of its 2.70% Senior Notes due February 2023. The 2.70% Senior Notes will be redeemed on November 15, 2022.

FAIR VALUE OF DEBT

The estimated fair value of Occidental’s debt as of September 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, substantially all of which was classified as Level 1, was approximately $18.6 billion and $31.1 billion, respectively.

NOTE 6 - DERIVATIVES

OBJECTIVE AND STRATEGY

Occidental uses a variety of derivative financial instruments and physical contracts to manage its exposure to commodity price fluctuations, interest rate risks and transportation commitments and to fix margins on the future sale of stored commodity volumes. Occidental also enters into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. Derivatives are carried at fair value and on a net basis when a legal right of offset exists with the same counterparty.

Occidental may elect normal purchases and normal sales exclusions when physically delivered commodities are purchased or sold to a customer. Occidental occasionally applies cash flow hedge accounting treatment to derivative financial instruments to lock in margins on the forecasted sales of its natural gas storage volumes, and at times for other strategies, such as to lock in rates on debt issuances. The value of cash flow hedges was insignificant for all periods presented.

DERIVATIVES NOT DESIGNATED AS HEDGING INSTRUMENTS

As of September 30, 2022, Occidental’s derivatives not designated as hedges consisted of marketing derivatives and interest rate swaps.

Derivative instruments that are not designated as hedging instruments are required to be recorded on the balance sheet at fair value. Changes in fair value will impact Occidental’s earnings through mark-to-market adjustments until the physical commodity is delivered or the financial instrument is settled.

MARKETING DERIVATIVES

Occidental's marketing derivative instruments not designated as hedges are short-duration physical and financial forward contracts. As of September 30, 2022, the weighted-average settlement price of these forward contracts was $86.82 per barrel and $6.11 per Mcf for crude oil and natural gas, respectively. The weighted-average settlement price was $74.85 per barrel and $4.61 per Mcf for crude oil and natural gas, respectively, as of December 31, 2021. Net gains and losses associated with marketing derivative instruments not designated as hedging instruments are recognized currently in net sales.

The following table summarizes net short volumes associated with the outstanding marketing commodity derivatives not designated as hedging instruments:

long (short)September 30, 2022December 31, 2021
Oil commodity contracts
Volume (MMbbl)(28)(28)
Natural gas commodity contracts
Volume (Bcf)(141)(136)

INTEREST RATE SWAPS

Occidental's interest rate swap contracts lock in a fixed interest rate in exchange for a floating interest rate indexed to the three-month London InterBank Offered Rate throughout the reference period. Net gains and losses associated with interest rate swaps are recognized currently in gains (losses) on interest rate swaps, net in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Operations.

Occidental had the following outstanding interest rate swaps as of September 30, 2022:

millions, except percentagesMandatoryWeighted-Average
Notional Principal AmountReference PeriodTermination DateInterest Rate

Depending on market conditions, liability management actions or other factors, Occidental may enter into offsetting interest rate swap positions as well as amend or settle certain or all of the currently outstanding interest rate swaps.

Derivative settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flow from operating activities unless the derivatives contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, in which case the settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from financing activities. Net cash receipts for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 related to interest rate

swap agreements were $61 million, which included $86 million paid to settle interest rate swaps, periodic interest settlements of $34 million and the return of $181 million of collateral.

CREDIT RISK

Certain of Occidental's over-the-counter derivative instruments contain credit-risk-contingent features, primarily tied to credit ratings for Occidental or its counterparties, which may affect the amount of collateral that each party would need to post. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed as of September 30, 2022 was $21 million (net of $64 million of collateral), which was primarily related to interest rate swaps. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-contingent features for which a net liability position existed as of December 31, 2021 was $107 million (net of $323 million of collateral), which was primarily related to interest rate swaps.

NOTE 7 - INCOME TAXES

LEGAL ENTITY REORGANIZATION

To align Occidental’s legal entity structure with the nature of its business activities after completing the acquisition of Anadarko and subsequent large scale post-acquisition divestiture program, management undertook a legal entity reorganization that was completed in the first quarter of 2022.

As a result of this legal entity reorganization, management made an adjustment to the tax basis in a portion of its operating assets, thus reducing Occidental’s deferred tax liabilities. Accordingly, in the first quarter of 2022, Occidental recorded an estimated non-cash tax benefit of $2.6 billion in connection with this reorganization. The timing of any reduction in Occidental’s future cash taxes as a result of this legal entity reorganization will be dependent on a number of factors, including prevailing commodity prices, capital activity level and production mix. Further refinement of the non-cash tax benefit may be necessary as Occidental finalizes its tax basis calculations, its 2022 tax returns and other information.

INFLATION REDUCTION ACT

In August 2022, Congress passed the Inflation Reduction Act which contains, among other provisions, a corporate book minimum tax on financial statement income, an excise tax on stock buybacks and certain tax incentives related to climate change and clean energy. Occidental is currently evaluating the provisions of this act. The ultimate impact of the Inflation Reduction Act to Occidental will depend on a number of factors including future commodity prices, interpretations and assumptions as well as additional regulatory guidance.

The following summarizes components of income tax expense on continuing operations for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021:

Income from continuing operations$2,746$830$11,377$1,229
Worldwide effective tax rate25%32%3%27%

The 25% and 32% worldwide effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, and 27% for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, were primarily driven by Occidental's jurisdictional mix of income. U.S. income is taxed at a U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%, while international income is subject to tax at statutory rates as high as 55%. These effective rates differ from the 3% tax rate for income from continuing operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, which was impacted by a non-cash tax benefit associated with Occidental's legal entity reorganization as described above.

NOTE 8 - ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES AND EXPENDITURES

Occidental’s operations are subject to stringent federal, regional, state, provincial, tribal, local and international laws and regulations related to improving or maintaining environmental quality. The laws that require or address environmental remediation, including CERCLA and similar federal, regional, state, provincial, tribal, local and international laws, may apply retroactively and regardless of fault, the legality of the original activities or the current ownership or control of sites. Occidental or certain of its subsidiaries participate in or actively monitor a range of remedial activities and government or private proceedings under these laws with respect to alleged past practices at operating, closed and third-party sites. Remedial activities may include one or more of the following: investigation involving sampling, modeling, risk assessment or monitoring; cleanup measures including removal, treatment or disposal; or operation and maintenance of remedial systems. The environmental proceedings seek funding or performance of remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties, injunctive relief and government oversight costs.

ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

As of September 30, 2022, Occidental participated in or monitored remedial activities or proceedings at 166 sites. The following table presents Occidental’s current and non-current environmental remediation liabilities as of September 30, 2022. The current portion, $155 million, is included in accrued liabilities and the non-current portion, $893 million, in deferred credits and other liabilities-environmental remediation liabilities.

Occidental’s environmental remediation sites are grouped into four categories: sites listed or proposed for listing by the U.S. EPA on the CERCLA NPL and three categories of non-NPL sites—third-party sites, Occidental-operated sites and closed or non-operated Occidental sites.

millions, except number of sitesNumber of SitesRemediation Balance
NPL sites30$445
Third-party sites71237
Occidental-operated sites13105
Closed or non-operated Occidental sites52261
Total166$1,048

As of September 30, 2022, Occidental’s environmental liabilities exceeded $10 million each at 16 of the 166 sites described above and 99 of the sites had liabilities from zero to $1 million each. Based on current estimates, Occidental expects to expend funds corresponding to approximately 40% of the period-end remediation balance at the sites described above over the next three years to four years and the remaining balance at these sites over the subsequent 10 or more years. Occidental believes its range of reasonably possible additional losses beyond those liabilities recorded for environmental remediation at these sites could be up to $1.2 billion. The status of Occidental's involvement with the sites and related significant assumptions, including those sites indemnified by Maxus, has not changed materially since December 31, 2021.

MAXUS ENVIRONMENTAL SITES

When Occidental acquired Diamond Shamrock Chemicals Company in 1986, Maxus, a subsidiary of YPF, agreed to indemnify Occidental for a number of environmental sites, including the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site along a portion of the Passaic River. On June 17, 2016, Maxus and several affiliated companies filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Federal District Court in the State of Delaware. Prior to filing for bankruptcy, Maxus defended and indemnified Occidental in connection with cleanup and other costs associated with the sites subject to the indemnity, including the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site.

In March 2016, the EPA issued a ROD specifying remedial actions required for the lower 8.3 miles of the Lower Passaic River (OU-2 ROD). This ROD did not address any potential remedial action for the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River or Newark Bay. During the third quarter of 2016, and following Maxus’s bankruptcy filing, OxyChem and the EPA entered into an AOC to complete the design of the proposed cleanup plan outlined in the ROD at an estimated cost of $165 million. The EPA announced that it would pursue similar agreements with other potentially responsible parties.

Occidental has accrued a reserve relating to its estimated allocable share of the costs to perform the design and remediation called for in the AOC and the OU-2 ROD as well as for certain other Maxus-indemnified sites. Occidental's accrued estimated environmental reserve does not consider any recoveries for indemnified costs. Occidental’s ultimate share of this liability may be higher or lower than the reserved amount, and is subject to final design plans and the resolution of Occidental's allocable share with other potentially responsible parties. Occidental continues to evaluate the costs to be

incurred to comply with the AOC and the OU-2 ROD and to perform remediation at other Maxus-indemnified sites in light of the Maxus bankruptcy and the share of ultimate liability of other potentially responsible parties. In June 2018, OxyChem filed a complaint under CERCLA in Federal District Court in the State of New Jersey against numerous potentially responsible parties for reimbursement of amounts incurred or to be incurred to comply with the AOC and the OU-2 ROD, or to perform other remediation activities at the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site.

In September 2021, the EPA issued a ROD with an estimated cost of $441 million for an interim remedy plan for the upper nine miles of the Lower Passaic River (OU-4 ROD). At this time, Occidental's role or responsibilities under the OU-4 ROD, and those of other potentially responsible parties, have not been determined with the EPA. In January 2022, OxyChem offered to design and implement the interim remedy for OU-4 subject to certain conditions. In March 2022, the EPA sent a notice letter to OxyChem and other parties requesting good faith offers to implement the selected remedies at OU-2 and OU-4. OxyChem responded to the EPA's letter in June 2022, reaffirming the offer to design the remedy for OU-4 and offering to enter into additional sequential agreements to remediate OU-2 and OU-4, subject to certain conditions. The EPA has not responded to OxyChem's June 2022 response.

In June 2017, the court overseeing the Maxus bankruptcy approved a Plan of Liquidation to liquidate Maxus and create a trust to pursue claims against current and former parents and certain of their respective subsidiaries and affiliates of YPF and Repsol, as well as others to satisfy claims by Occidental and other creditors for past and future cleanup and other costs. In July 2017, the court-approved Plan of Liquidation became final and the trust became effective. The trust is pursuing claims against YPF, Repsol and others and is expected to distribute assets to Maxus' creditors in accordance with the trust agreement and Plan. In June 2018, the trust filed its complaint against YPF and Repsol in Delaware bankruptcy court asserting claims based upon, among other things, fraudulent transfer and alter ego. During 2019, the bankruptcy court denied Repsol's and YPF's motions to dismiss the complaint as well as their motions to move the case away from the bankruptcy court. The trust, YPF, and Repsol each filed motions for summary judgment, and the bankruptcy court denied all but one motion in the second quarter of 2022. Trial is set for March 2023.

NOTE 9 - LAWSUITS, CLAIMS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

LEGAL MATTERS

Occidental or certain of its subsidiaries are involved, in the normal course of business, in lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage or other losses, punitive damages, civil penalties, or injunctive or declaratory relief. Occidental or certain of its subsidiaries also are involved in proceedings under CERCLA and similar federal, regional, state, provincial, tribal, local and international environmental laws. These environmental proceedings seek funding or performance of remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties and injunctive relief. Usually Occidental or such subsidiaries are among many companies in these environmental proceedings and have to date been successful in sharing response costs with other financially sound companies. Further, some lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings involve acquired or disposed assets with respect to which a third party or Occidental retains liability or indemnifies the other party for conditions that existed prior to the transaction.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, Occidental accrues reserves for outstanding lawsuits, claims and proceedings when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the liability can be reasonably estimated. Reserves for matters, other than for environmental remediation and the arbitration award disclosed below, that satisfy this criteria as of September 30, 2022 and 2021 were not material to Occidental’s Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

In 2016, Occidental received payments from the Republic of Ecuador of approximately $1.0 billion pursuant to a November 2015 arbitration award for Ecuador’s 2006 expropriation of Occidental’s Participation Contract for Block 15. The awarded amount represented a recovery of Occidental's 60% of the value of Block 15. In 2017, Andes filed a demand for arbitration, claiming it is entitled to a 40% share of the judgment amount obtained by Occidental. Occidental contends that Andes is not entitled to any of the amounts paid under the 2015 arbitration award because Occidental’s recovery was limited to Occidental’s own 60% economic interest in the block. On March 26, 2021, the arbitration tribunal issued an award in favor of Andes and against OEPC in the amount of $391 million plus interest. In June 2021, OEPC filed a motion to vacate the award due to concerns regarding the validity of the award. In addition, OEPC has made a demand for significant additional claims not addressed by the arbitration tribunal that OEPC has against Andes relating to Andes' 40% share of costs, liabilities, losses and expenses due under the farmout agreement and joint operating agreement to which Andes and OEPC are parties. In December 2021, the U.S. District Court Southern District of New York confirmed the arbitration award, plus prejudgment interest, in the aggregate amount of $558 million. OEPC has appealed the judgment.

If unfavorable outcomes of these matters were to occur, future results of operations or cash flows for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially adversely affected. Occidental’s estimates are based on information known about the legal matters and its experience in contesting, litigating and settling similar matters. Occidental reassesses the probability and estimability of contingent losses as new information becomes available.

TAX MATTERS

During the course of its operations, Occidental is subject to audit by tax authorities for varying periods in various federal, state, local and international tax jurisdictions. Tax years through 2020 for U.S. federal income tax purposes have been audited by the IRS pursuant to its Compliance Assurance Program and subsequent taxable years are currently under review. Tax years through 2014 have been audited for state income tax purposes. Significant audit matters in international jurisdictions have been resolved through 2010. During the course of tax audits, disputes have arisen and other disputes may arise as to facts and matters of law.

For Anadarko, its taxable years through 2014 and tax year 2016 for U.S. federal tax purposes have been audited by the IRS. Tax years through 2008 have been audited for state income tax purposes. There is one outstanding significant tax matter in an international jurisdiction related to a discontinued operation. As stated above, during the course of tax audits, disputes have arisen and other disputes may arise as to facts and matters of law.

Other than the matter discussed below, Occidental believes that the resolution of these outstanding tax matters would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

Anadarko received an $881 million tentative refund in 2016 related to its $5.2 billion Tronox Adversary Proceeding settlement payment in 2015. In September 2018, Anadarko received a statutory notice of deficiency from the IRS disallowing the net operating loss carryback and rejecting Anadarko’s refund claim. As a result, Anadarko filed a petition with the U.S. Tax Court to dispute the disallowances in November 2018. The case was in the IRS appeals process until the second quarter of 2020, however it has since been returned to the U.S. Tax Court, where a trial date has been set for May 2023 and Occidental expects to continue pursuing resolution.

In accordance with ASC 740’s guidance on the accounting for uncertain tax positions, Occidental has recorded no tax benefit on the tentative cash tax refund of $881 million. As a result, should Occidental not ultimately prevail on the issue, there would be no additional tax expense recorded relative to this position for financial statement purposes other than future interest. However, in that event, Occidental would be required to repay approximately $1.3 billion in federal taxes, $28 million in state taxes and accrued interest of $369 million. A liability for this amount plus interest is included in deferred credits and other liabilities-other.

INDEMNITIES TO THIRD PARTIES

Occidental, its subsidiaries, or both, have indemnified various parties against specified liabilities those parties might incur in the future in connection with purchases and other transactions that they have entered into with Occidental. These indemnities usually are contingent upon the other party incurring liabilities that reach specified thresholds. As of September 30, 2022, Occidental is not aware of circumstances that it believes would reasonably be expected to lead to indemnity claims that would result in payments materially in excess of reserves.

NOTE 11 - SEGMENTS

Occidental conducts its operations through three segments: (1) oil and gas; (2) chemical; and (3) midstream and marketing. Income taxes, interest income, interest expense, environmental remediation expenses, Anadarko acquisition-related costs and unallocated corporate expenses are included under corporate and eliminations. Intersegment sales eliminate upon consolidation and are generally made at prices approximating those that the selling entity would be able to obtain in third-party transactions.
