This morning the company released their second quarter financial earnings and the results didn’t meet the analyst’s expectations.
The net income for second quarter 2015 is $571 million, or $0.30 per share, compared
with earnings of $5.7 billion ($2.98 per share) in the 2014 second quarter.
Included in the quarter were impairments of $1.96 billion andother charges of approximately $670 million relating to project suspensions andadverse tax effects, all of which were non-cash charges stemming from adownward revision in the company’s longer-term crude oil price outlook.Partially offsetting were gains on asset sales totaling $1.80 billion in thecurrent quarter. Foreign currency effects decreased earnings in the 2015quarter by $251 million, compared with a decrease of $232 million a yearearlier.
Lower oil prices had hurt the oil giant and this inevitably reflected the reporting. This is the worst result for the last 13 years.
