Summary
Occidental Petroleum Corporation (OXY) filed a Form 8-K on May 6, 2005, to disclose the full text of a speech delivered by Dr. Ray R. Irani at the company's 2005 Annual Meeting of Stockholders. This filing primarily serves to make the speech and its accompanying appendix, which reconciles non-GAAP financial measures, publicly available under Regulation FD. Investors should review the attached Exhibit 99.1 for insights into the company's performance, strategy, and financial outlook as presented by the Chairman, President, and CEO. The inclusion of non-GAAP financial measure reconciliations suggests the speech likely discussed financial metrics beyond those reported under Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, which is common for management presentations on operational performance and future targets.
