“Third quarter earnings were the highest since first quarter 2013 largely due to improved market conditions, strong operational performance and a lower cost structure,” said Mike Wirth, Chevron’s chairman and chief executive officer.
“Our free cash flow during the quarter was the best ever reported by the company,” Wirth added. “We paid dividends of $2.6 billion, reduced debt by $5.6 billion, and repurchased $625 million of shares during the quarter.”
Chevron continued to exercise capital discipline and actively manage its portfolio to advance its higher return, lower carbon objectives. Year-to-date capital spending was down 22 percent from a year ago. The company announced an agreement with Neste Oyj to acquire their Group III

base oil business and brand, NEXBASETM, and completed the acquisition of an equity interest in American Natural Gas LLC and its network of 60 compressed natural gas stations to grow its renewable natural gas value chain. In addition, the company completed the sales of several conventional Permian Basin properties during the quarter.
UPSTREAM
Worldwide net oil-equivalent production was 3.03 million barrels per day in third quarter 2021, an increase of 7 percent from a year ago.

Earnings
$1,962$116$4,349$(1,709)
U.S. upstream operations earned $1.96 billion in third quarter 2021, compared with $116 million a year earlier. The improvement was primarily due to higher crude oil realizations and sales volumes. Gains on assets sales during the quarter also contributed to the improvement between periods.
The company’s average sales price per barrel of crude oil and natural gas liquids was $58 in third quarter 2021, up from $31 a year earlier. The average sales price of natural gas was $3.25 per thousand cubic feet in third quarter 2021, up from $0.89 in last year’s third quarter.
Net oil-equivalent production of 1.13 million barrels per day in third quarter 2021 was up 145,000 barrels per day from a year earlier. The increase was due to an additional 224,000 barrels per day of production following the Noble Energy acquisition, partially offset by a 69,000 barrels per day decrease related to the Appalachian asset sale. The net liquids component of oil-equivalent production in third quarter 2021 increased 15 percent to 842,000 barrels per day, and net natural gas production increased 13 percent to 1.71 billion cubic feet per day, compared to last year’s third quarter.

International upstream operations earned $3.17 billion in third quarter 2021, compared with $119 million a year ago. The increase in earnings was primarily due to higher realizations and sales volumes. Foreign currency effects had a favorable impact on earnings of $392 million between periods.
The average sales price for crude oil and natural gas liquids in third quarter 2021 was $68 per barrel, up from $39 a year earlier. The average sales price of natural gas was $6.28 per thousand cubic feet in the third quarter, up from $3.89 in last year’s third quarter.
Net oil-equivalent production of 1.91 million barrels per day in third quarter 2021 was up 55,000 barrels per day from third quarter 2020. Higher production of an additional 158,000 barrels per day following the Noble Energy acquisition and lower production curtailments, were partially offset by unfavorable entitlement effects, normal field declines, and operational impacts that were mainly due to the planned turnaround at Tengizchevroil. The net liquids component of oil-equivalent production decreased 6 percent to 915,000 barrels per day in third quarter 2021,

Earnings
$1,083$141$1,729$(397)
U.S. downstream operations reported earnings of $1.08 billion in third quarter 2021, compared with $141 million a year earlier. The increase was mainly due to higher margins on refined product sales, higher earnings from the 50 percent-owned Chevron Phillips Chemical Company, and higher sales volumes.
Refinery crude oil input in third quarter 2021 increased 9 percent to 895,000 barrels per day from the year-ago period, as the company increased refinery runs in response to higher demand and the improved refining margin environment.
Refined product sales of 1.19 million barrels per day were up 18 percent from the year-ago period, mainly due to higher gasoline, jet fuel, and diesel demand as travel restrictions associated with the COVID-19 pandemic continue to ease.

Refinery crude oil input of 584,000 barrels per day in third quarter 2021 increased 2 percent from the year-ago period.
Refined product sales of 1.39 million barrels per day in third quarter 2021 increased 8 percent from the year-ago period, mainly due to higher demand for gasoline and jet fuel.

Chevron’s discussion of third quarter 2021 earnings with security analysts will take place on Friday, October 29, 2021, at 8:00 a.m. PT. A webcast of the meeting will be available in a listen-only mode to individual investors, media, and other interested parties on Chevron’s website at www.chevron.com under the “Investors” section.

As used in this news release, the term “Chevron” and such terms as “the company,” “the corporation,” “our,” “we,” “us” and “its” may refer to Chevron Corporation, one or more of its consolidated subsidiaries, or to all of them taken as a whole.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures - This news release includes adjusted earnings/(loss), which reflect earnings or losses excluding significant non-operational items including impairment charges, write-offs, severance costs, Noble Energy acquisition costs, gains on asset sales, unusual tax items, effects of pension settlements and curtailments, foreign currency effects and other special items. During the first quarter of 2021, the Company updated its calculation of adjusted earnings to exclude pension settlement costs. The Company recognizes settlement gains or losses when the cost of all settlements for a plan during a year is greater than the sum of its service and interest costs during the year. By adjusting earnings to exclude pension settlement costs, the Company believes it removes non-operational costs that would otherwise obscure its underlying operating results. Adjusted earnings/(loss) for 2020 were

recast to conform with the current presentation. We believe it is useful for investors to consider this measure in comparing the underlying performance of our business across periods. The presentation of this additional information is not meant to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) as prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. A reconciliation to net income (loss) attributable to Chevron Corporation is shown in Attachment 5.
This news release also includes free cash flow and free cash flow excluding working capital. Free cash flow is defined as net cash provided by operating activities less cash capital expenditures, and represents the cash available to creditors and investors after investing in the business. Free cash flow excluding working capital is defined as net cash provided by operating activities excluding working capital less cash capital expenditures and represents the cash available to creditors and investors after investing in the business excluding the timing impacts of working capital. The company believes these measures are useful to monitor the financial health of the company and its performance over time. A reconciliation of free cash flow and free cash flow excluding working capital are shown in Attachment 3.
