“We had another quarter of strong operational and financial performance and delivered superior cash returns to shareholders,” said Mike Wirth, Chevron’s chairman and chief executive officer. “U.S. production was up 35 percent from a year ago, and we continued to meet major project milestones.”

Chevron’s return on capital employed in the first quarter 2024 was greater than 12 percent, as the company increased its dividend per share payout by 8 percent from fourth quarter 2023 and repurchased nearly $3 billion of its shares. U.S. net oil-equivalent production increased by 35 percent from a year ago period primarily due to the acquisition of PDC Energy, Inc. (PDC) and sustained strong execution in the Permian and Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basins. The company’s affiliate Tengizchevroil safely started up the Wellhead Pressure Management Project (WPMP) in April, and Chevron also advanced its carbon capture value chain, hydrogen, and renewable fuels businesses during the quarter.

Financial Highlights

• First quarter 2024 earnings decreased compared to last year primarily due to lower margins on refined product sales and lower natural gas realizations, partly offset by higher upstream sales volumes in the U.S.
• Worldwide production was up 12 percent from a year ago primarily due to the acquisition of PDC and strong operational performance in the Permian and DJ Basins in the U.S. and the Tengizchevroil affiliate in Kazakhstan, partly offset by planned downtime in Nigeria.
• Capex in the first quarter of 2024 was up from last year largely due to higher investments in upstream, including post-acquisition spend on legacy PDC assets.
• Cash flow from operations was lower than a year ago mainly due to lower earnings and higher spend on expansion of the retail marketing network and asset retirements, partly offset by lower working capital.
• The company returned $6.0 billion of cash to shareholders during the quarter, including dividends of $3.0 billion and share repurchases of nearly $3.0 billion.
• The company’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of one dollar and sixty-three cents ($1.63) per share, payable June 10, 2024, to all holders of common stock as shown on the transfer records of the corporation at the close of business on May 17, 2024.

Business Highlights and Milestones

• Started up WPMP at the company’s 50 percent-owned affiliate, Tengizchevroil, with the first pressure boost facility compressor online and first metering station conversion completed.
• Reached final investment decision to add midstream infrastructure expected to increase production capacity at the Tamar gas field in Israel to 1.6 billion cubic feet per day.
• Entered an agreement to assume a 60 percent operated interest in Uruguay’s AREA OFF-1 offshore exploration block, subject to customary closing conditions.
• Expanded fuel marketing network in key U.S. West Coast and Gulf Coast markets, encompassing more than 250 retail stations.
• Launched a $500 million Future Energy Fund III focused on venture investments in technology-based solutions that have the potential to enable affordable, reliable and lower carbon energy.
• Drilled onshore and offshore stratigraphic wells to delineate carbon dioxide storage potential through the company’s joint venture Bayou Bend CCS LLC.
• Reached final investment decision to build an oilseed processing plant in Louisiana through the company’s joint venture Bunge Chevron Ag Renewables LLC.
• Announced the company’s first solar-to-hydrogen production project that is expected to utilize solar power and non-potable water from existing assets in California.
• Withdrew from Chevron’s nonoperated working interests in Myanmar effective April 1, 2024.

• U.S. upstream earnings were higher than the year-ago period primarily due to higher sales volumes, including from legacy PDC assets, partly offset by higher depreciation, depletion and amortization mainly from higher production, and lower realizations.
• U.S. net oil-equivalent production was up 406,000 barrels per day from a year earlier primarily due to the acquisition of PDC and higher production in the Permian and DJ Basins.

• International upstream earnings were lower than a year ago primarily due to lower natural gas realizations, partly offset by favorable tax impacts, including the absence of first quarter 2023 tax charges related to the energy profits levy in the United Kingdom, higher liquids realizations and favorable foreign currency effects.
• Net oil-equivalent production during the quarter was down 39,000 barrels per day from a year earlier primarily due to a planned turnaround in Nigeria and normal field declines, partly offset by stronger operational performance at Tengizchevroil.

the potential liability resulting from pending or future litigation; the ability to successfully integrate the operations of the company and PDC Energy, Inc. and achieve the anticipated benefits from the transaction, including the expected incremental annual free cash flow; the risk that Hess Corporation (Hess) stockholders do not approve the potential transaction, and the risk that regulatory approvals are not obtained or are obtained subject to conditions that are not anticipated by the company and Hess; potential delays in consummating the Hess transaction, including as a result of regulatory proceedings or the ongoing arbitration proceedings regarding preemptive rights in the Stabroek Block joint operating agreement; risks that such ongoing arbitration is not satisfactorily resolved and the potential transaction fails to be consummated; uncertainties as to whether the potential transaction, if consummated, will achieve its anticipated economic benefits, including as a result of regulatory proceedings and risks associated with third party contracts containing material consent, anti-assignment, transfer or other provisions that may be related to the potential transaction that are not waived or otherwise satisfactorily resolved; the company’s ability to integrate Hess’ operations in a successful manner and in the expected time period; the possibility that any of the anticipated benefits and projected synergies of the potential transaction will not be realized or will not be realized within the expected time period; the company’s future acquisitions or dispositions of assets or shares or the delay or failure of such transactions to close based on required closing conditions; the potential for gains and losses from asset dispositions or impairments; government mandated sales, divestitures, recapitalizations, taxes and tax audits, tariffs, sanctions, changes in fiscal terms or restrictions on scope of company operations; foreign currency movements compared with the U.S. dollar; higher inflation and related impacts; material reductions in corporate liquidity and access to debt markets; changes to the company’s capital allocation strategies; the effects of changed accounting rules under generally accepted accounting principles promulgated by rule-setting bodies; the company’s ability to identify and mitigate the risks and hazards inherent in operating in the global energy industry; and the factors set forth under the heading “Risk Factors” on pages 20 through 26 of the company’s 2023 Annual Report on Form 10-K and in subsequent filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. Other unpredictable or unknown factors not discussed in this news release could also have material adverse effects on forward-looking statements.
