Chevron Holds Firm After Strong Earnings Beat
Chevron's stock price held firm after the company reported strong earnings and revenue growth in its latest quarter. The energy giant posted $6.06 in adjusted EPS for the quarter ended July 31, 2026, beating analyst expectations of $5.55. Revenue reached $67.20 billion, a 57.4% year-over-year increase from the prior quarter.
The company's net margin was 9.57%, and its return on equity stood at 11.09%. Analysts have nudged their earnings per share estimates for the current fiscal year to 15.86, suggesting that Chevron's recent run rate can hold.
