Summary
Chevron Corporation's Q2 2014 report shows a modest increase in net income attributable to Chevron Corporation, reaching $5.7 billion compared to $5.4 billion in the same period of the prior year. For the first six months of 2014, net income was $10.2 billion, a decrease from $11.5 billion in the first half of 2013. This decline in year-to-date net income was primarily driven by lower earnings in the upstream segment, which saw increased depreciation, exploration, and operating expenses, partially offset by gains on asset sales and higher crude oil realizations. The downstream segment experienced mixed results, with strong U.S. performance boosted by chemical affiliate earnings and refined product margins, while international downstream margins declined. Cash flow from operations remained robust, providing $16.3 billion in the first six months of 2014, an increase from $14.2 billion in the prior year, largely due to lower working capital requirements. However, capital expenditures rose to $19.6 billion for the first half of 2014, up from $18.3 billion in the same period of 2013, reflecting continued investment in major projects like Gorgon and Wheatstone LNG. The company continued its shareholder return program by repurchasing $1.25 billion of its common stock in the second quarter, and declared a quarterly dividend of $1.07 per share.
