Occidental Petroleum Corporation stock dividends

Occidental Petroleum Corporation dividend payout ratio: 35.56% of net profits

Recently Occidental Petroleum Corporation has paid out, on average, around 35.56% of net profits as dividends. That has enabled analysts to estimate a "forward annual dividend yield" of 2.27% of the current stock value.

This means that, over a year, based on recent payouts (which are sadly no guarantee of future payouts), Occidental Petroleum Corporation shareholders could enjoy a 2.27% return on their shares in the form of dividend payments. In Occidental Petroleum Corporation's case, that would currently equate to about $0.94 per share.

While Occidental Petroleum Corporation's payout ratio might seem fairly standard, it's worth remembering that Occidental Petroleum Corporation may be investing much of the rest of its net profits in future growth.

Occidental Petroleum Corporation's next dividend payout is expected around January 15, 2026. To benefit, you'll need to buy Occidental Petroleum Corporation stocks before December 10, 2025 (the "ex-dividend date").

Occidental Petroleum Corporation stock performance metrics

Here are some common key metrics for Occidental Petroleum Corporation stock that analysts often use to help gauge a stock's value—P/E ratio, PEG ratio and EBITDA.

• Occidental Petroleum Corporation's P/E ratio

  Occidental Petroleum Corporation's current share price divided by its per-share earnings (EPS) over the past 12 months gives a trailing price/earnings (P/E) ratio of roughly 31x. In other words, Occidental Petroleum Corporation shares trade at around 31 times recent earnings.

  That's relatively high compared to, say, the trailing 12-month P/E ratio for the NASDAQ 100 at the end of 2019 (27.29). The high P/E ratio could mean that investors are optimistic about the outlook for the stock or simply that they're over-valued.

• Occidental Petroleum Corporation's PEG ratio

  Occidental Petroleum Corporation's price/earnings-to-growth (PEG) ratio is calculated by dividing its P/E ratio by its earnings growth, which comes out to about 2.3551. A lower ratio can suggest a stock offers better value, while a higher ratio may suggest worse value.

  The PEG ratio provides a broader view than the P/E ratio alone, as it factors in Occidental Petroleum Corporation's expected earnings growth. By accounting for growth, investors can use the PEG ratio to compare the valuations of multiple high-growth companies.

• Occidental Petroleum Corporation's EBITDA

  Occidental Petroleum Corporation's EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) is $12.7 billion. EBITDA is a measure of a company's overall financial performance and is often used as a proxy for a company's profitability.

Has Occidental Petroleum Corporation stock ever split?

Occidental Petroleum Corporation's stocks were split on a 10000:9983 basis on February 24, 2016.

This wouldn't directly have changed the overall worth of your Occidental Petroleum Corporation stocks, just the quantity.

However, indirectly, the new 0.2% lower stock price could have impacted the market appetite for Occidental Petroleum Corporation stocks, which in turn could have impacted Occidental Petroleum Corporation's stock price.
