OCCIDENTAL PETROLEUM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
SEPTEMBER 30, 2019

Note 1 - General

Nature of Operations
NOTE 1 - GENERAL

NATURE OF OPERATIONS
In this report, "Occidental" means Occidental Petroleum Corporation, a Delaware corporation (OPC), or OPC and one or more entities in which it owns a controlling interest (subsidiaries). Occidental conducts its operations through various subsidiaries and affiliates. On August 8, 2019, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 9, 2019 (the Merger Agreement), among Occidental, Baseball Merger Sub 1, Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Occidental (Merger Subsidiary), and Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (Anadarko), Occidental acquired all of the outstanding shares of Anadarko through a transaction in which Merger Subsidiary merged with and into Anadarko (the Merger), with Anadarko continuing as the surviving entity and as an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Occidental. See Note 3 - The Merger.

Occidental's principal businesses consist of 4 reporting segments: Oil and Gas, Chemical, Marketing and Other Midstream, and WES Midstream, which includes the operations of Western Midstream Partners, LP (WES), a publicly traded limited partnership and a consolidated subsidiary of OPC. The Oil and Gas segment explores for, develops and produces oil and condensate, natural gas liquids (NGL) and natural gas. The Chemical segment (OxyChem) mainly manufactures and markets basic chemicals and vinyls. The Marketing and Other Midstream segment purchases, markets, gathers, processes, transports and stores oil, condensate, NGL, natural gas, carbon dioxide (CO2) and power. It also trades around its assets, including transportation and storage capacity, and invests in entities that conduct similar activities. Also within the Marketing and Other Midstream segment is Oxy Low Carbon Ventures (OLCV). OLCV seeks to capitalize on Occidental’s enhanced oil recovery (EOR) leadership by developing carbon capture, utilization and storage projects that source anthropogenic carbon dioxide and promote innovative technologies that drive cost efficiencies and grow Occidental’s business while reducing emissions. The WES Midstream segment owns gathering systems, plants and pipelines and earns revenue from fee-based and service-based contracts with Occidental and third parties. WES is a variable interest entity (VIE) to Occidental.

Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and include the accounts of OPC, its subsidiaries, VIEs for which Occidental is the primary beneficiary, and its undivided interests in oil and gas exploration and production ventures. Occidental has made its disclosures in accordance with GAAPUnited States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) as they apply to interim reporting, and condensed or omitted, as permitted by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission'sCommission’s rules and regulations, certain information and disclosures normally included in consolidated financial statements and notes.the notes thereto. These unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in Occidental'sOccidental’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 20182019 (the 20182019 Form 10-K).

The Merger, includingIn the additionopinion of WES Midstream as a new reporting segment, introduced different revenue and expense streams to Occidental's legacy operations. As a result, changes were made toOccidental’s management, the structure of certainaccompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to fairly present Occidental’s consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the consolidated condensed statements of operations, comprehensive income, cash flows and stockholders' equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 and 2019. Certain data in the financial statements and notes and supplementary data to provide clarity andfor prior periods have been reclassified to conform to the current presentation. The income and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2020 and 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the income or cash flows to be expected for the full year.

Variable Interest EntitiesTHE ACQUISITION
On August 8, 2019, pursuant to the Agreement and Plan of Merger dated May 9, 2019, Occidental acquired all of the outstanding shares of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (the Acquisition). The Acquisition added to Occidental's oil and gas portfolio, primarily in the Permian Basin, DJ Basin, Gulf of Mexico and Algeria, and an interest in Western Midstream Partners, L.P. (WES). The Acquisition constituted a business combination. Under the acquisition method of accounting, the acquisition consideration is allocated to tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed based on their fair values.
As of June 30, 2020, Occidental has substantially completed the allocation of the consideration; however, Occidental continues to gather information related to the evaluation for a limited number of assets. Estimates were recorded as of the Acquisition date related to these remaining items and the valuations could change as additional information is received. For the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, there were no material changes to the allocation presented in the 2019 Form 10-K.
Occidental through its ownership ofexpensed $149 million and $297 million in acquisition-related costs for the general partner interest in WES, has the power to direct the activities that significantly affect the economic performance of WESthree and the obligation to absorb losses or the right to receive benefits that could be significant to WES; therefore, Occidental is considered the primary beneficiary and consolidates WES and all of its consolidated subsidiaries. WES maintains its own capital structure that is separate from Occidental, consisting of its own debt instruments and publicly traded common units. All intercompany transactions have been eliminated.

The assets of WES and its subsidiaries cannot be used by Occidental for general corporate purposes and are included in and disclosed parenthetically on Occidental's consolidated condensed balance sheets, if material. The carrying amount of liabilitiessix months ended June 30, 2020, respectively, primarily related to WES for which the creditors do not have recourse to Occidental's assets are also included in and disclosed parenthetically on Occidental's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets, if material.severance costs.



All outstanding debt for WES at September 30, 2019, including any borrowings under the WES revolving credit facility (WES RCF) and WES Term Loan Facility, is recourse to the general partner of Western Midstream Operating, LP (WES Operating), which in turn has been indemnified in certain circumstances by certain indirect wholly owned subsidiaries of Occidental for such liabilities. See Note 9 - Long-Term Debt.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
WES's sources of liquidity include cash and cash equivalents, cash flows generated from operations, interest income from a note receivable from Anadarko, borrowings under the WES RCF, the issuance of additional partnership units, and debt offerings.

Concurrent with the closing of its May 2008 initial public offering, WES Operating loaned Anadarko $260 million in exchange for a 30-year note bearing interest at a fixed annual rate of 6.50%, payable quarterly. The note receivable and related interest income are eliminated in consolidation.

Noncontrolling Interest
WES is a publicly traded limited partnership with its common units traded on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) under the ticker symbol "WES." WES also owns the entire non-economic general partner interest and a 98% limited partner interest in WES Operating, a Delaware limited partnership formed by Anadarko in 2007 to acquire, own, develop and operate midstream assets. In addition, Occidental has a 2% limited partner interest in WES Operating and its ownership is held through the investment in WES.

At September 30, 2019, Occidental’s ownership interest in WES consisted of the entire non-economic general partner interest and a 55.4% limited partner interest. The noncontrolling interest primarily consists of the 44.6% limited partner interest of WES owned by the public.

Discontinued Operations
In connection with the Merger,Acquisition, Occidental agreed to sell toentered into a purchase and sale agreement with TOTAL S.A. (Total) to sell all of the assets, liabilities, businesses, and operations of Anadarko's operations in Algeria, Ghana, Mozambique and South Africa (collectively, the Africa Assets) for $8.8 billion, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. In August 2019, a purchaseAfrica. Total and sale agreement was executed for these Africa Assets. This transaction is conditioned on the receipt of required regulatory approvals, as well as other customary closing conditions. On September 27, 2019, Occidental completed the sale of Anadarko’sthe Mozambique LNGassets in September 2019 and the South Africa assets in January 2020.
In April 2020, subsequent to communications with Algerian government officials, Occidental determined that the sale of the Algeria assets to Total would not be consummated, and the decision was made to continue to operate within Algeria. As a result, Occidental no longer classified the Algeria operations as a held for $4.2 billion.sale asset in discontinued operations and reclassified prior periods to reflect the Algeria operations as continuing operations, see Note 3 - Dispositions and Other Transactions for the impact on prior periods. In addition, Occidental recorded a $931 million impairment to remeasure the Algeria oil and gas properties to their fair value which was lower than the carrying amount as if depreciation, depletion and amortization (DD&A) were recorded from the date of the Acquisition. The fair value of the oil and gas properties was measured based on the income approach, see Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements for a description of inputs and assumptions utilized.
In May 2020, Occidental and Total mutually agreed to execute a waiver of the obligation to purchase and sell the Ghana assets, so that Occidental could begin marketing the sale of the Ghana assets to other third parties. Occidental is currently marketing the Ghana assets. The assets and liabilities for Algeria, Ghana and South Africa, areremain presented as held for sale at SeptemberJune 30, 2019.2020, and the carrying amount of the assets and liabilities of the Ghana disposal group were adjusted to their
9


estimated fair value. Occidental recorded an after-tax impairment of $1.4 billion to reflect the held for sale assets at their fair value less costs to sell based on the income approach, refer to Note 7 - Fair Value Measurements. The results of operations of the Africa Assets areGhana continue to be presented as discontinued operations, see Note 43 - Acquisitions, Dispositions and Other Transactions.

Unless otherwise indicated, information presented in the Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements relates only to Occidental's continuing operations. Information related to discontinued operations is included in Note 43 - Acquisitions, Dispositions and Other Transactions, and in some instances, where appropriate, is included as a separate disclosure within the individual Notes to the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
Goodwill resulting from the Merger was assigned to WES Midstream and represents the excess of the purchase price over the estimated fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed. Goodwill is subject to annual impairment testing. Changes in goodwill may result from, among other things, finalization of preliminary purchase price allocations, impairments, additional acquisitions, or divestitures. See Note 3 - The Merger.

Other intangible assets represent contractual rights obtained in connection with the Merger that had favorable contractual terms relative to market terms as well as customer-related intangible assets, including customer relationships. Other intangible assets are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are assessed for impairment with the associated long-lived asset group whenever impairment indicators are present. See Note 3 - The Merger.

EQUITY METHOD INVESTMENT-WES
On December 31, 2019, Occidental and WES executed several agreements to allow WES to operate as an independent midstream company. Occidental's loss of control of WES on December 31, 2019 resulted in Occidental recognizing, at fair value, an equity method investment of $5.1 billion based on the closing market price of WES. As of June 30, 2020, the carrying amount of the investment in WES was $4.9 billion. The decline in the equity method investment from December 31, 2019 to June 30, 2020 was primarily attributable to Occidental's interest in WES's approximately $440 million impairment of its goodwill during the first quarter of 2020. Occidental has concluded that the short-term loss in value did not meet the other-than-temporary criteria under accounting literature governing equity method investments as of June 30, 2020. However, if WES’s unit price remains significantly below its year-end 2019 unit price for the remainder of 2020, Occidental may be be required to reduce the carrying amount of its equity method investment in WES. WES owns gathering systems, plants and pipelines and earns revenue from fee-based and service-based contracts with Occidental and third parties, which could be impacted by lower demand for oil and gas associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

Note 2 - Accounting and Disclosure Changes

NOTE 2 - ACCOUNTING AND DISCLOSURE CHANGES

In January 2019,2020, Occidental adopted the new lease standard Accounting Standards Codification Topic 842Update (ASU) 2016-13 Financial Instruments - Leases (ASC 842)Credit Losses (Topic 326). The new standard requiresmakes significant changes to the accounting for credit losses on financial assets and disclosures regarding credit losses. For trade receivables, loans and held-to-maturity debt securities, entities will be required to estimate lifetime expected credit losses. This will result in the earlier recognition of credit losses than the current incurred-loss model. The acceleration of the recognition of losses is more material for entities whose receivables and other held-to-maturity debt investments are (1) long dated and (2) with less credit worthy counterparties.
The vast majority of Occidental's receivables are short dated with maturities of less than 60 days with creditworthy counterparties, including refiners, pipelines and resellers. Given Occidental’s continued effort to maintain a strong credit portfolio, there have been no negative indications regarding the collectability of these receivables as of the date of this filing. Therefore, adoption of this standard has no material impact for the quarter. Occidental will continue to recognize most leases, including operating leases, onassess the balance sheet.risk to its receivables in the future.
In January 2020, Occidental adopted ASU 2017-4 Intangibles, Goodwill and Other (Topic 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment. The new rules require lessees to recognizestandard simplifies the accounting for goodwill impairment by requiring a right-of-use asset (ROU)single step impairment test, whereby the impairment equals the difference between the carrying amount and lease liability for all leases with lease termsthe estimated fair value of more than 12 months. Occidental adopted the standard using the modified retrospective approach, including adopting several optional practical expedients. Seespecified units in their entirety, see Note 107 - Lease CommitmentsFair.



Note 3 - The Merger

On May 9, 2019, Occidental entered into the Merger Agreement with Anadarko. On August 8, 2019, Anadarko’s stockholders voted to approve the Merger and it was made effective the same day. The Merger added to Occidental's oil and gas portfolio, primarily in the Permian Basin, DJ Basin and Gulf of Mexico, and a controlling interest in WES.

In exchange for each share of Anadarko common stock, Anadarko stockholders received $59.00 in cash and 0.2934 of a share of Occidental common stock, plus cash in lieu of any fractional share of Occidental common stock that otherwise would have been issued, based on the average price of $46.31 per share of Occidental common stock on the NYSE on August 8, 2019.

In connection with the Merger, Occidental issued $13.0 billion of new senior unsecured notes, $8.8 billion of term loans (the Term Loans) and 100,000 shares of series A preferred stock (the Preferred Stock) with a warrant to purchase 80 million shares of Occidental common stock at an exercise price of $62.50 (the Warrant) for $10 billion. In addition, Occidental increased its existing $3.0 billion revolving credit facility by an additional $2.0 billion in commitments. See Note 9 - Long-term DebtandValue MeasurementsNote 14 - Stockholders' Equity for additional information.the results of this simplified goodwill impairment test.

The Merger constitutes a business combination and was accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting.

The aggregate purchase price noted above was allocated to the major categories of assets and liabilities acquired based upon their preliminary estimated fair values at the date of the Merger. The valuation of certain assets, including property and intangible assets, are based on preliminary appraisals. The majority of measurements of assets acquired and liabilities assumed, other than debt, are based on inputs that are not observable in the market and thus represent Level 3 inputs. The fair value of acquired properties and equipment is based on both available market data and a cost approach. Oil and natural gas properties were valued using either available market data based on the nature of the properties and the location or an income approach. Intangible assets primarily consist of third-party customer contracts, the fair value of which was determined using an income approach. Deferred income taxes, represent the tax effects of differenceswhich have been reclassified to continuing operations, subsequent to Occidental's decision to operate in the tax basis and merger-date fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed. The measurement of debt instruments was based on unadjusted quoted prices in an active market and are primarily Level 1; approximately $6.1 billion of the assumed debt is considered Level 2. The value of derivative instruments was based on observable inputs, primarily forward commodity-price and interest-rate curves and is considered Level 2.



The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary estimated fair value of the net tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired totaled $6.1 billion in goodwill. Goodwill is attributable to the difference in the WES Midstream market capitalization value at the date of the Merger and the WES Midstream net assets acquired, and primarily represents the intrinsic value of the customer relationship between WES Midstream and Occidental.

With the completion of the Merger, Occidental acquired proved and unproved properties of approximately $18.2 billion and $26.0 billion, respectively, primarily associated with the Permian Basin, DJ Basin, Gulf of Mexico and Powder River Basin. The remaining $5.0 billion is related to land, mineral interests and corporate properties.

Other intangible assets of $2.4 billion primarily relate to customer contracts associated with the WES Midstream segment. These contracts are amortized over 25 years. The annual aggregate amortization expenseAlgeria, for intangible assets is expected to be $108 million.

From the date of the Merger through September 30, 2019, revenues and net loss attributable to common stockholders associated with Anadarko assets totaled $1.5 billion and $400 million, respectively.

Employee severance and related cost primarily relates to one-time severance costs and the accelerated vesting of certain Anadarko share-based awards for former Anadarko employees based on the terms of the Merger Agreement and existing change of control provisions within the former Anadarko employment agreements.
DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In addition, employee severance and related cost includes expenses for a voluntary separation program for eligible employees. Occidental initiated this program to align the size and composition of its workforce with its expected future operating and capital plans. Employee notifications related to the voluntary separation program were ongoing at September 30, 2019, with additional expenses associated with the program expected to be incurred throughout the remainder of 2019 and through most of 2020.

The seismic licensing fees relate to relicensing of critical seismic data related to the Gulf of Mexico, Permian Basin and DJ Basin that Anadarko had licensed from third-party vendors. The third-party vendors who own the seismic data require a transfer fee in order for Occidental to use the data.

Occidental Stock-based Incentive Plans
On the date of the Merger, Occidental issued restricted share awards covering 1.7 million shares of common stock in exchange for Anadarko stock-based incentive shares to the former Anadarko employees. These restricted shares vest in periods ranging from one month to 3.5 years and are conditioned solely on the employees' continued service, with a weighted-average grant-date fair value of $47.13 and a weighted-average remaining life of 1.3 years. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, these restricted share awards would be subject to accelerated vesting based on a qualifying termination event.





Note 4 - Acquisitions, Dispositions and Other Transactions

On September 27, 2019,January 2020, Occidental completed the sale of Anadarko’s Mozambique LNGthe South Africa assets to Total for $4.2 billion, with proceeds used to pay down a portion of the Term Loans. Occidental and Total continue to work toward completing the sales of the remaining Africa Assets. Occidental anticipates that the remaining sales will be completed before June 2020. The carrying amount of the remaining Africa Assets will be adjusted in future periods based on changes in fair value.Total.

Sale of Plains Investment
NOTE 4 - REVENUE
On September 23, 2019, Occidental sold its remaining equity investment in Plains All American Pipeline, L.P. and Plains GP Holdings, L.P. (together, Plains) for net proceeds of $646 million, which resulted in a pre-tax gain of $111 million. The proceeds were used to pay down a portion of the Term Loans.

Ecopetrol Joint Venture
On July 31, 2019, Occidental and Ecopetrol entered into definitive agreements to form a joint venture to develop approximately 97,000 net acres of Occidental’s Midland Basin properties in the Permian Basin. Ecopetrol will pay $750 million in cash at closing and $750 million of carried capital in exchange for a 49-percent interest in the new venture. Occidental will own a 51-percent interest and operate the joint venture. During the carry period, Ecopetrol will pay 75-percent of Occidental’s share of capital expenditures, up to $750 million. The joint venture allows Occidental to accelerate its development plans in the Midland Basin, where it currently has minimal activity. Occidental will retain production and cash flow from its existing operations in the Midland Basin. This transaction is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2019.



Note 5 - Revenue Recognition

Revenue from customers is recognized when obligations under the terms of a contract with our customers are satisfied; this generally occurs with the delivery of oil, natural gas NGL,liquids (NGL), gas, chemicals or services, such as transportation. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, trade receivables, net, of $5.9$2.4 billion represent rights to payment, for which Occidental has satisfied its obligations under a contract and its right to payment is conditioned only on the passage of time.

TRANSACTION PRICE ALLOCATED TO REMAINING PERFORMANCE OBLIGATIONS
Revenue expected to be recognized from certain performance obligations that are unsatisfied as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020 is reflected in the table below. Occidental applies the optional exemptions in Topic 606ASU 2014-09 Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) and does not disclose consideration for remaining performance obligations with an original expected duration of one year or less or for variable consideration related to unsatisfied performance obligations. As a result, the following table represents a small portion of Occidental's expected future consolidated revenues, as future revenue from the sale of most products and services is dependent on future production or variable customer volume and variable commodity prices for that volume:

Occidental did 0t recognize any inventory impairments for the three or six months months ended June 30, 2019.
NOTE 6 - DERIVATIVES

Occidental uses a variety of derivative financial instruments and physical contracts to manage its exposure to commodity-price fluctuations, interest rate risks and transportation commitments and to fix margins on the future sale of stored commodity volumes and interest rate risks.volumes. Occidental also enters into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

Occidental may elect normal purchases and normal sales exclusions when physically delivered commodities are purchased or sold to a customer. Occidental occasionally applies cash flow hedge accounting treatment to derivative financial instruments to lock in margins on the forecasted sales of its natural gas storage volumes, and at times for other strategies, such as to lock rates on forecasted debt issuances. Derivatives are carried at fair value and on a net basis when a legal right of offset exists with the same counterparty.



Derivatives Not Designated as Hedging InstrumentsDERIVATIVES NOT DESIGNATED AS HEDGING INSTRUMENTS
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019, Occidental's2020, Occidental’s derivatives not designated as hedges consist of three-way oil collars and call options, interest rate swaps, and marketing derivatives and the Warrant.

derivatives.
Derivative instruments that are derivatives not designated as hedging instruments are required to be recorded on the statement of operations and balance sheet at fair value. Changes in fair value will impact Occidental'sOccidental’s earnings through mark-to-market adjustments until the physical commodity is delivered or the financial instrument is settled. The fair value does not reflect the realized or cash value of the instrument.

Three-way Oil Collars and Call OptionsTHREE-WAY OIL COLLARS AND CALL OPTIONS
In July 2019, Occidental entered into three-way costless collar derivative instruments for 2020 andalong with additional call options in 2021 to manage its near-term exposure to cash-flow variability from commodity-pricecommodity price risks. A three-way collar is a combination of three options: a sold call, a purchased put and a sold put. The sold call establishes the ceiling price that Occidental will receive for the contracted commodity volume for a defined period of time. The purchased put establishes the floor price that Occidental will receive for the contracted volumes unless the market price for the commodity falls below the sold put strike price, at which point the floor price equals the reference price plus the difference between the purchased put strike price and the sold put strike price for a defined period of time. Occidental entered into the 2021 call options to substantially improve the terms for the ceiling price that Occidental will receive for the contracted commodity volumes in 2020. In the Merger, Occidental also assumed three-way costless collars that expire throughout the rest of 2019. Net gains and losses associated with collars and calls are recognized currently in net sales. Hedge accounting was not elected forOccidental received cash of $322 million associated with these contracts.collars in the six months ended June 30, 2020.

Depending on market conditions, liability-managementliability management actions or other factors, Occidental may enter into offsetting interest rate swap positions or settle or amend certain or all of the currently outstanding interest rate swaps. In the first quarter of 2020, Occidental extended all 2020 mandatory termination dates to 2021 or thereafter.

In addition to the interest rate swaps, Occidental has approximately $1.5 billion of debt referenced to LIBOR that matures after 2021. It is expected that a number of private-sector banks currently reporting information used to set LIBOR will stop doing so after 2021. Occidental is currently evaluating the potential effect to its debt and derivative obligations due to the transition from LIBOR to another benchmark rate. The effect to our LIBOR indexed contracts will depend on the alternative reference rate selected by our counterparties and the contracts relative values at the time of the transition.
Derivative settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flowsflow from operating activities unless the derivatives contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, in which case the settlements and collateralization are classified as cash flows from financing activities. As a result of prior extensions of reference-period start dates without settlementDue to the liability position of the related interest rate derivative obligations,derivatives at the date of the Acquisition, the interest rate derivatives in Occidental'sOccidental’s portfolio contain an other-than-insignificant financing element, and therefore, any settlements, collateralization or cash payments for amendments related to these extended interest rate derivatives are classified as cash flowsflow from financing activities. Net cash paymentsreceipts (payments) related to settlements were $3 million and amendments of$(47) million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, respectively. Occidental paid collateral with respect to interest rate swap agreements were $43of $221 million duringand $320 million for the period from August 8, 2019, through Septemberthree months and six months ended June 30, 2019. Subsequent to September 30, 2019, Occidental settled interest rate swaps that had a mandatory termination date of October 11, 2019, and a notional value of $125 million.2020, respectively.

WES Interest Rate Swaps
In the Merger, Occidental also acquired interest rate swap contracts held by WES. WES exchanged a floating interest rate indexed to the three-month LIBOR for a fixed interest rate. Net gains and losses associated with these interest rate derivative instruments are recognized currently in losses on interest rate swaps and warrants, net.

At Occidental's May 29, 2020 annual shareholders meeting, all remaining approvals were obtained, and as of the date of this filing the MergerBerkshire Warrants can no longer be cash settled. Upon these approvals, the fair value of the Berkshire Warrants was remeasured at May 29, 2020 using the Black ScholesBlack-Scholes option model. The reclassification from liabilities to "Additional paid-in capital" was $102 million.
The following inputs were used in the Black ScholesBlack-Scholes option model;model: the expected life of the Berkshire Warrants, a volatility factor and the exercise price. The expected life is based on the estimated term of the Warrant,Berkshire Warrants, the volatility factor is based on historical volatilities of Occidental common stock, and the call optionexercise price for Occidentalis $62.50.
The Berkshire Warrants contain an anti-dilution provision that adjusts the exercise price and the number of shares of Occidental's common stock at $62.50.

Net gains and losses attributable to derivative instruments subject to cash flow hedge accounting reside in accumulated other comprehensive loss and are reclassified to earnings as the transactions to which the derivatives relate are recognized in earnings.

Cash Flow HedgesCASH FLOW HEDGES
Occidental’s marketing operations store natural gas purchased from third parties at Occidental’s leased storage facilities. Derivative instruments are used to fix margins on the future sales of the stored volumes. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019, Occidental had approximately 5 billion cubic feet (Bcf) of natural gas held in storage,2020, and hadDecember 31, 2019, cash flow hedges for the forecast sales, to be settled by physical delivery, of approximately 3 Bcf of stored natural gas. As of December 31, 2018, Occidental had approximately 5 Bcf of natural gas held in storage, and had cash flow hedges for the forecasted sales, to be settled by physical delivery, of approximately 4 Bcf of stored natural gas. The fair value of the cash flow hedges associated with stored natural gas was immaterial at September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018. The ineffective portion recognized through earnings was immaterial for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, and the year ended December 31, 2018.were immaterial.

In June 2019, in anticipation of issuing debt in the third quarter to partially finance the cash portion of the Merger consideration, Occidental entered into a series of U.S. treasury locks which were designated as cash flow hedges. In August 2019, the U.S. treasury locks were unwound with the issuance of the $13.0 billion new senior unsecured notes, and the resulting after-tax accumulated other comprehensive loss of $125 million will be amortized to interest expense over the life of the underlying senior notes.

CREDIT RISK
Occidental's counterparty credit risk related to the physical delivery of energy commodities results from its customers' potential inability to meet their settlement commitments. Occidental manages credit risk by selecting counterparties that it believes to be financially strong, by entering into netting arrangements with counterparties and by requiring collateral or other credit risk mitigants, as appropriate. Occidental actively evaluates the creditworthiness of its counterparties, assigns appropriate credit limits and monitors credit exposures against those assigned limits. Occidental also enters into future contracts through regulated exchanges with select clearinghouses and brokers, which are subject to minimal credit risk as a significant portion of these transactions settle on a daily margin basis.

Certain of Occidental's over-the-counter derivative instruments contain credit-risk-contingent features, primarily tied to credit ratings for Occidental or its counterparties, which may affect the amount of collateral that each party would need to post. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed at SeptemberJune 30, 20192020, was $1.6 billion (net of $0.3 billion collateral), primarily related to acquired interest-rate swaps, and $68$43 million (net of $1$424 million collateral), of collateral)which $23 million related to marketing activity, and the balance related to interest-rate swaps. The aggregate fair value of derivative instruments with credit-risk-related contingent features for which a net liability position existed at December 31, 2018.2019, was $787 million (net of $169 million of collateral).

Occidental has categorized its assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value in a three-level fair-valuefair value hierarchy, based on the inputs to the valuation techniques: Level 1 — using quoted prices in active markets for the assets or liabilities; Level 2 — using observable inputs other than quoted prices for the assets or liabilities; and Level 3 — using unobservable inputs. Transfers between levels, if any, are recognized at the end of each reporting period.

Fair Values — RecurringFAIR VALUES - RECURRING
In January 2012, Occidental entered into a long-term contract to purchase COcarbon dioxide (CO2). This contract contains a price adjustment clause that is linked to changes in NYMEX crude oil prices. Occidental determined that the portion of this contract linked to NYMEX oil prices is not clearly and closely related to the host contract, and Occidental therefore bifurcated this embedded pricing feature from its host contract and accounts for it at fair value in the Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements.

FAIR VALUES - NONRECURRING - IMPAIRMENTS
As a result of the nineexpected prolonged period of lower commodity prices brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on oil demand, Occidental tested substantially all of its oil and gas assets for impairment during the second quarter of 2020. Occidental recognized total pre-tax impairments to its oil and gas proved and unproved properties of $8.6 billion, of which $6.4 billion is included in oil and gas segment results and $2.2 billion ($1.4 billion net of tax) related to Ghana is included in discontinued operations for three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, Occidental measured assets and liabilities at merger-date fair value on a nonrecurring basis related to the Merger. See Note 3 - The Merger for more detail.2020.

DuringFor the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, Occidental's Oil and Gas segment recognized2020, Occidental recorded proved property pre-tax impairment and related chargesimpairments of $285 million related to domestic undeveloped leases that were set to expire in the near term, where Occidental had no plans to pursue exploration activities, and $40 million related to Occidental's mutually agreed early termination of its Qatar Idd El Shargi South Dome (ISSD) contract.

During 2018, Occidental recognized pre-tax impairment and related charges of $416 million$1.2 billion primarily related to Idd El Shargi North Dome (ISND)certain assets for its domestic onshore and ISSDGulf of Mexico assets and $0.9 billion to remeasure the Algeria oil and gas proved properties and inventory.to their fair value. The fair value of the proved properties was measured based on the income approach.
Unproved property pre-tax impairments of $4.3 billion were primarily related to domestic onshore unproved acreage. The fair value of this acreage was measured based on a market approach which incorporated a number ofusing an implied acreage valuation derived from domestic onshore market participants excluding the fair value assigned to proved properties.

Income approaches are considered Level 3 fair value estimates and include significant assumptions involving expectations of future cash flows. Theseproduction and timing of production, commodity price assumptions, includedand operating and capital cost estimates, discounted using a 10% weighted average cost of future product prices, which Occidentalcapital. Taxes were based on forward price curves,current statutory rates. Future production and timing of production is based on internal reserves estimates ofand internal economic models for a specific oil and gas asset. Internal reserve estimates consist of proved reserves estimatesand risk adjusted unproved reserves based on reserve category. Price assumptions were based on a combination of future expected operatingmarket information and published industry resources adjusted for historical differentials. Price assumptions ranged from approximately $40 per barrel of oil in 2020 increasing to approximately $70 per barrel of oil in 2034, with an unweighted arithmetic average price of $59.17 and $62.42 for WTI and Brent indexed assets for the 15 year period, respectively. Natural gas prices ranged from approximately $2.00 per MCF in 2020 to $3.60 per MCF in 2034, with an unweighted arithmetic average price of $3.13 for NYMEX based assets for the 15 year period. Both oil and natural gas commodity prices were held flat after 2034 and were adjusted for location and quality differentials. Operating and capital cost estimates were based on current observable costs and were further escalated 1% in every period where commodity prices exceeded $50 per barrel and 2% in every period where commodity prices exceeded $60 per barrel. The weighted average cost of capital is calculated based on industry peers and best approximates the cost of capital an external market participant would expect to obtain.
In the first quarter of 2020, Occidental's oil and gas segment recognized pre-tax impairment and related charges of $581 million primarily related to both proved and unproved oil and gas properties and a risk-adjusted discount ratelower of 10 percent. These inputscost or net realizable value adjustment for crude inventory. Occidental recorded proved property impairments of $293 million related to certain international assets and the Gulf of Mexico. Unproved property impairments, of approximately $241 million, primarily related to domestic onshore undeveloped leases and offshore Gulf of Mexico where Occidental no longer intends to pursue exploration, appraisal or development activities primarily due to the reduction in near-term capital plans.
If there is a further worsening of the macro-economic conditions and if such worsened conditions are categorized as Level 3expected to be prolonged, Occidental’s oil and gas properties may be subject to further testing for impairment, which could result in additional non-cash asset impairments, and such impairments could be material to our financial statements.

GOODWILL
As of December 31, 2019, Occidental had $1.2 billion of goodwill related to its ownership in WES. Significant declines in the fair-value hierarchy.
Other Financial Instruments
The carrying amountsmarket value of cash and cash equivalents and other on-balance-sheet financial instruments, otherWES’s publicly traded units resulted in management’s determination that, more likely than long-term, fixed-rate debt, approximate fair value. The cost, if any, to terminate Occidental's off-balance-sheet financial instruments is not, significant. Occidental estimates the fair value of fixed-ratethe reporting unit was significantly less than its carrying value and the remaining $1.2 billion in goodwill was fully impaired in the first quarter of 2020. The market value of WES's publicly traded units is considered a Level 1 input.

Debt Issued
On August 8, 2019, Occidental issued $13.0 billion of new senior unsecured notes, consisting of both floating and fixed rate debt. Occidental also borrowed under the Term Loans, which consist of: (1) a 364-day senior unsecured variable-rate term loan tranche of $4.4 billion and (2) a two-year senior unsecured variable-rate term loan tranche of $4.4 billion. In total, the $21.8 billion in debt issued was used to finance part of the cash portion of the purchase price for the Merger.

Debt Assumed as Part of the Merger
In the Merger, Occidental assumed Anadarko and WES debt with an outstanding principal balance of $11.9 billion and $4.6 billion, respectively. In addition, WES had borrowings of $2.9 billion under an RCF and term loan facilities at the Merger date. Debt assumed from Anadarko and WES was recorded at fair value at the Merger date, refer to Note 3 - The Merger. In September 2019, Occidental completed its offers to exchange the Anadarko senior notes and debentures assumed as part of the Merger for notes of a corresponding series issued by Occidental and cash, and related solicitation of consents. Of the approximately $11.9 billion in aggregate principal amount of Anadarko senior notes and debentures offered in the exchange, 97 percent, or approximately $11.5 billion, were tendered and accepted in the exchange offers. The portion not exchanged, approximately $400 million, remains outstanding with the original terms.

Debt Repayment
In September 2019, Occidental paid down $4.8 billion on the Term Loans, primarily using proceeds from the sales of both the Anadarko Mozambique LNG asset and Occidental's equity investment in Plains.

WES Debt
Debt related to WES included $4.6 billion in senior unsecured notes, $3.0 billion under the WES Term Loan Facility due December 2020, and $160 million drawn against the WES RCF at September 30, 2019. The WES Term Loan Facility has a maturity date of December 31, 2020 and requires that net cash proceeds received from future asset sales and debt or equity offerings must be used to repay amounts outstanding under the facility, with a $1.0 billion exclusion for debt offering proceeds. The WES RCF has a maturity date of February 2024 and a borrowing capacity of $2.0 billion. In September 2019, WES borrowed $1.0 billion under the WES Term Loan Facility and used the funds to repay borrowings under the WES RCF.

Revolving Credit Facility
On June 3, 2019, Occidental entered into an amendment to its existing $3.0 billion revolving credit facility (Occidental RCF) pursuant to which, among other things, the commitments under the Occidental RCF were increased to $5.0 billion at the closing of the Merger. Borrowings under the Occidental RCF bear interest at various benchmark rates, including LIBOR, plus a margin based on Occidental's senior debt ratings. The facility has similar terms to other debt agreements and does not contain material adverse change clauses or debt-ratings triggers that could restrict Occidental's ability to borrow, or that would permit lenders to terminate their commitments or accelerate debt repayment. The facility provides for the termination of loan commitments and requires immediate repayment of any outstanding amounts if certain events of default occur. Occidental has not drawn down any amounts under the Occidental RCF.

Zero Coupon Notes Due 2036
The Zero Coupon senior notes due 2036 (Zero Coupons) have an aggregate principal amount due at maturity of approximately $2.3 billion, reflecting an accretion rate of 5.24%. The Zero Coupons can be put to Occidental in October of each year, in whole or in part, for the then-accreted value of the outstanding Zero Coupons. None of the Zero Coupons were put to Occidental in October 2019. The Zero Coupons can next be put to Occidental in October 2020, which, if put in whole, would be $992 million at such date. Occidental has the ability and intent to refinance these obligations using long-term debt should a put be exercised.


Note 10 - Lease Commitments
NOTE 9 - LEASE COMMITMENTS

On January 1, 2019, Occidental adopted ASC 842 using the modified retrospective approach, which provided a method for recording existing leases at adoption and did not require restatement of prior year amounts and disclosures, which continue to be reflected in accordance with ASC 840. Occidental elected certain practical expedients as follows:

Leases that commenced before the effective date carried forward their historical lease classification.
Existing or expired land easements as of December 31, 2018, were not reassessed to determine whether or not they contained a lease.
Leases with a lease term of 12 months or less from lease commencement date are considered short-term leases and not recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet; however, the lease expenditures recognized are captured and reported as incurred.
For asset classes, except long-term drilling rigs, Occidental elected to account for the lease and non-lease components as a single lease component as the non-lease portions were not significant to separate in determining the lease liability. For long-term drilling rig contracts, Occidental bifurcated the lease and non-lease components using relative fair value as a stand-alone selling price between the asset rental and the services obtained.

ASC 842 requires lessees to recognize a ROU asset and lease liability for all long-term leases. A ROU asset represents Occidental’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and the associated lease liability represents the discounted obligation of future minimum lease payments. Occidental identifies leases through its accounts payable and contract monitoring process. Operating lease ROU assets and liabilities are recognized at commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. The ROU assets include the discounted obligation in addition to any upfront payments or costs incurred during the contract execution of the lease and amortized on a straight-line basis over the course of the lease term. Except for leases with explicitly defined contract terms, Occidental utilizes judgment to assess likelihood of renewals, terminations and purchase options, in order to determine the lease term. Occidental uses the incremental borrowing rate at commencement date to determine the present value of lease payments. The incremental borrowing rate equates to the rate of interest that Occidental would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term an amount equal to the lease payments in a similar economic environment. Certain leases include variable lease payments which are over and above the minimum lease liability used to derive the ROU asset and lease liability and are based on the underlying asset’s operations. These variable lease costs are reported in the lease cost classification table.

Recognition, measurement, and presentation of expenses and cash flows arising from a lease will depend on classification as a finance or operating lease. The criteria for distinguishing between finance and operating leases are substantially similar to the criteria under ASC 840. For Occidental operations, adoption of ASC 842 resulted in recording of net lease assets and lease liabilities of $772 million as of January 1, 2019. There was no material impact to net income, cash flows, or stockholders’ equity.

Merger Impact
ASC 805 Business Combinations requires lease-related assets and liabilities acquired to be measured as if the lease were new at the merger date. Occidental measured the Anadarko legacy lease agreements using an updated incremental borrowing rate curve. This resulted in legacy Anadarko assets and liabilities of $498 million and $574 million, respectively, excluding the Africa Assets at the Merger date. These agreements are still under further review for above-or below-market impacts.



The following table reconciles the undiscounted cash flows related to the operating and finance lease liabilities assumed in the Merger and recorded on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet at the Merger date:

Additionally, Occidental has elected short-term lease treatment for those acquired lease contracts which, at the Merger date, have a remaining lease term of 12 months or less. For the leases acquired through the Merger, Occidental will retain the previous lease classification.

Nature of Leases
Occidental’s operating lease agreements include leases for oil and gas exploration and development equipment, including offshore and onshore drilling rigs and storage platforms of $186$47 million, compressors of $174$133 million, storage facilities of $342 million, office space of $348 million and other field equipment of $97$71 million, which are recorded gross on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheet and in the lease cost disclosures below. Contract expiration terms generally range from two to seveneight years. Further, actual expenditures are netted against joint-interest recoveries on the income statement through the normal joint-interest billing process. Occidental’s leases also include pipelines, rail cars, storage facilities, easements, aircrafts and real estate of $682$219 million, which typically are not associated with joint-interest recoveries. Real estate leases have contract expiration terms ranging from 1one to 1613 years.

Occidental’s finance lease agreements include leases for oil and gas exploration and development equipment, as well as real estate offices, compressors and field equipment of approximately $100$335 million.

Note 11 - Lawsuits, Claims, Commitments and Contingencies
NOTE 10 - LAWSUITS, CLAIMS, COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Legal MattersLEGAL MATTERS
Occidental or certain of its subsidiaries are involved, in the normal course of business, in lawsuits, claims and other legal proceedings that seek, among other things, compensation for alleged personal injury, breach of contract, property damage or other losses, punitive damages, civil penalties, or injunctive or declaratory relief. Occidental or certain of its subsidiaries also are involved in proceedings under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) and similar federal, state, local and foreign environmental laws. These environmental proceedings seek funding or performance of remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties and injunctive relief. Usually Occidental or such subsidiaries are among many companies in these environmental proceedings and have to date been successful in sharing response costs with other financially sound companies. Further, some lawsuits, claims and legal proceedings involve acquired or disposed assets with respect to which a third party or Occidental retains liability or indemnifies the other party for conditions that existed prior to the transaction.

In accordance with applicable accounting guidance, Occidental accrues reserves for outstanding lawsuits, claims and proceedings when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the liability can be reasonably estimated. In Note 12 - Environmental Liabilities and Expenditures, Occidental has disclosed its reserve balances for environmental remediation matters that satisfy this criteria. Reserve balances for matters, other than for environmental remediation, that satisfy this criteria as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, and December 31, 2018,2019, were not material to Occidental’s Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets.

In 2016, Occidental received payments from the Republic of Ecuador of approximately $1.0 billion pursuant to a November 2015 arbitration award for Ecuador’s 2006 expropriation of Occidental's Participation Contract for Block 15. The awarded amount represented a recovery of 60 percent of the value of Block 15. In 2017, Andes Petroleum Ecuador Ltd. (Andes) filed a demand for arbitration, claiming it is entitled to a 40 percent share of the judgment amount obtained
25


by Occidental. Occidental contends that Andes is not entitled to any of the amounts paid under the 2015 arbitration award because Occidental’s recovery was limited to Occidental’s own 60 percent economic interest in the block. The merits hearing is scheduled for MaySeptember 2020. Occidental intends to vigorously defend against this claim in arbitration.

In August 2019, Sanchez Energy Corporation and certain of its affiliates (Sanchez) filed voluntary petitions for reorganization under Chapter 11 of the United States Bankruptcy Code. Sanchez is a party to agreements with Anadarko as a result of its 2017 purchase of Anadarko's Eagle Ford Shale assets. In a recent filing in the bankruptcy proceeding, Sanchez stated that it intends to reject all agreements related to the purchase of Anadarko’s Eagle Ford Shale assets. If Sanchez is permitted to reject certain of the agreements, then Anadarko may owe deficiency payments to various third parties. The Company intends to defend vigorously any attempt by Sanchez to reject the agreements.The Company expects a ruling on Sanchez's purported contract rejection by the fourth quarter of 2020.
On May 30, 2019,26, 2020, a complaintputative securities class action captioned City of Sterling Heights General Employees’ Retirement System, et al. v. Occidental Petroleum Corporation, et al., No. 651994/2020 (City of Sterling), was filed in the Supreme Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware by purported Occidental stockholders High River Limited Partnership, Icahn Partners Master Fund LPNew York. The complaint asserts claims under Sections 11, 12 and Icahn Partners LP (the “Icahn Complainants”), captioned High River Ltd. P’ship v. Occidental Petroleum Corp., C.A. No. 2019-0403-JRS, seeking inspection of Occidental’s books and records pursuant to Section 22015 of the Delaware General Corporation Law. InSecurities Act of 1933, as amended (the Securities Act), based on alleged misstatements in the Securities Act filings, including the registration statement filed in connection with the Anadarko Acquisition and Occidental’s related issuance of common stock and debt securities offerings that took place in August 2019. The lawsuit was filed against Occidental, certain current and former officers and directors and certain underwriters of the debt securities offerings, and seeks damages in an unspecified amount, plus attorneys’ fees and expenses. Since the filing of the City of Sterling complaint, two additional putative class actions have been filed in the Icahn Complainants noted that they had accumulated over $1.6 billionsame court (together with City of Occidental Common Stock. On June 14, 2019, Occidental filed an answerSterling, the State Cases) and the State Cases have now been consolidated. The Company intends to vigorously defend itself in all respects in regard to the complaint in the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware. A trial was held on September 20, 2019, and the parties are awaiting a ruling.

Cases.
The ultimate outcome and impact of outstanding lawsuits, claims and proceedings on Occidental cannot be predicted. Management believes that the resolution of these matters will not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on Occidental's Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. If unfavorable outcomes of these matters were to occur, future results of operations or cash flows for any particular quarterly or annual period could be materially adversely affected. Occidental’s estimates are based on information known about the legal matters and its experience in contesting, litigating and settling similar matters. Occidental reassesses the probability and estimability of contingent losses as new information becomes available.

Tax MattersTAX MATTERS
During the course of its operations, Occidental is subject to audit by tax authorities for varying periods in various federal, state, local and foreign tax jurisdictions. With the Merger, Occidental maintains 2 separate federal consolidated groups. For the legacy Occidental group, taxable years through 20162017 for United StatesU.S. federal income tax purposes have been audited by the United StatesU.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) pursuant to its Compliance Assurance Program and subsequent taxable years are currently under review. Taxable years through 2009 have been audited for state income tax purposes. While a single foreign tax jurisdiction is open for 2002 and subsequent years, all otherAll significant audit matters in foreign jurisdictions have been resolved through 2010.



For Anadarko, taxable years through 2016 for United States federal and state income tax purposes have been audited by the IRS and respective state taxing authorities. While the local country audit of a single foreign tax jurisdiction is open for tax years 2011 through 2013, there are no outstanding significant audit matters in foreign jurisdictions. During the course of tax audits, disputes have arisen and other disputes may arise as to facts and matters of law.
For Anadarko, its taxable years through 2016 for U.S. federal and state income tax purposes have been audited by the IRS and respective state taxing authorities. There are outstanding significant audit matters in one foreign jurisdiction. As stated above, during the course of tax audits, disputes have arisen and other disputes may arise as to facts and matters of law. Other than the matter discussed below, Occidental believes that the resolution of these outstanding tax matters would not have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial position or results of operations.

The tax deduction for the Anadarko received an $881 million tentative refund in 2016 related to its $5.2 billion Tronox Adversary Proceeding (Tronox) settlement payment contributed toin 2015. In September 2018, Anadarko received a statutory notice of deficiency from the IRS disallowing the net operating loss reported oncarryback and rejecting Anadarko’s 2015 federal income tax return thatrefund claim. As a result, Anadarko filed a petition with the U.S. Tax Court to dispute the disallowances in November 2018. The case was subsequently carried backin the IRS appeals process until the second quarter of 2020, however it has since been returned to previous years and resulted in a tentative cash refund of $881 million of prior taxes paid, which was received in 2016.the U.S. Tax Court where Occidental expects to continue pursuing resolution. While Occidental believes it is entitled to this refund, in accordance with ASC 740's740’s guidance on the accounting for uncertain tax positions, as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental has recorded no tax benefit on the tentative cash tax refund of prior federal taxes paid of $881 million. As a result, should Occidental not ultimately prevail on the issue, there would be no additional tax expense recorded for financial statement purposes other than future interest. However,A liability was recorded in thatdeferred credits and other liabilities - other at December 31, 2019, for the amount to be repaid plus interest in the event Occidental would be requireddoes not prevail.
On March 27, 2020, the President signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (hereafter, CARES Act), an economic stimulus package in response to repaythe COVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act contains several corporate income tax provisions, including provisions allowing for immediate refund of remaining unutilized AMT credits as well as allowing a 5-year carryback of net operating losses generated in tax years 2018, 2019, and 2020. As of the date of this report, Occidental received approximately $917$170 million ($898of cash refunds as a result of the aforementioned AMT credit and NOL carryback provisions and anticipates an additional $25 million federalcash refund by the end of the year. Occidental does not currently expect the various provisions of the CARES Act to have a material effect on current

Indemnities to Third PartiesINDEMNITIES TO THIRD PARTIES
Occidental, its subsidiaries, or both, have indemnified various parties against specified liabilities those parties might incur in the future in connection with purchases and other transactions that they have entered into with Occidental. These indemnities usually are contingent upon the other party incurring liabilities that reach specified thresholds. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental is not aware of circumstances that it believes would reasonably be expected to lead to indemnity claims that would result in payments materially in excess of reserves.

Purchase Obligations and Commitments
Occidental, its subsidiaries, or both, have entered into agreements providing for future payments to secure terminal and pipeline capacity, drilling rigs and services, electrical power, steam and certain chemical raw materials. Occidental has certain other commitments under contracts, guarantees and joint ventures, including purchase commitments for goods and services at market-related prices and certain other contingent liabilities.

As of September 30, 2019, there were no material changes to Occidental's legacy purchase obligations since disclosure in the 2018 Form 10-K. In the Merger, Occidental assumed purchase obligations of approximately $5.2 billion, which included approximately $315 million, $1.0 billion, $907 million, $735 million, $589 million and $1.6 billion that will be paid for the remainder of 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 and thereafter, respectively. These amounts were discounted at 3.88%. These purchase obligations are related to long-term and work-related commitments for drilling wells, obtaining and processing seismic data, and fulfilling rig commitments, as well as various processing, transportation, storage, and purchase agreements to access markets and provide flexibility to sell its oil, natural gas, and NGL in certain areas.

Note 12 - Environmental Liabilities and Expenditures
NOTE 11 - ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES AND EXPENDITURES

Occidental’s operations are subject to stringent federal, state, local and international laws and regulations related to improving or maintaining environmental quality. The laws that require or address environmental remediation, including the CERCLA and similar federal, state, local and international laws, may apply retroactively and regardless of fault, the legality of the original activities or the current ownership or control of sites. OccidentalOPC or certain of its subsidiaries participate in or actively monitor a range of remedial activities and government or private proceedings under these laws with respect to alleged past practices at operating, closed and third-party sites. Remedial activities may include one or more of the following: investigation involving sampling, modeling, risk assessment or monitoring; cleanup measures including removal, treatment or disposal; or operation and maintenance of remedial systems. The environmental proceedings seek funding or performance of remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties, injunctive relief and government oversight costs.


ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental participated in or monitored remedial activities or proceedings at 185177 sites. The following table presents Occidental’s current and non-current environmental remediation reservesliabilities as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019.2020. The current portion, $149$160 million, is included in accrued liabilities and the non-current portion, $905 million,$1.0 billion, in deferred credits and other liabilities - environmental remediation reserves. The reservesliabilities.
Occidental’s environmental remediation sites are grouped as environmental remediationinto four categories: sites listed or proposed for listing by the United StatesU.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) on the CERCLA National Priorities List (NPL) sites and 3three categories of non-NPL sites — third-party sites, Occidental-operated sites and closed or non-operated Occidental sites. Occidental continues to evaluate environmental liabilities assumed through the Merger with an initial determination that it will participate in or monitor remedial activities or proceedings at 42 sites. The underlying reserve balance for the environmental sites assumed through the Merger will change as more site-specific information and clean-up measures becomes available.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental’s environmental reservesremediation liabilities exceeded $10 million each at 19 of the 185177 sites described above, and 112100 of the sites had reservesliabilities from zero0 to $1 million each. Based on current estimates, Occidental expects to expend funds corresponding to approximately 4045 percent of the environmental reservesperiod-end remediation balance at the sites described above over the next three to four years and the remaining balance at these sites over the subsequent 10 or more years. Occidental believes its range of reasonably possible additional losses beyond those liabilities recorded for environmental remediation at these sites could be up to $1.2$1.1 billion. Other than the sites assumed through the Merger, theThe status of Occidental's involvement with the sites and related significant assumptions, including those sites indemnified by Maxus Energy Corporation (Maxus), has not changed materially since December 31, 2018.2019.

Maxus Environmental Sites

MAXUS ENVIRONMENTAL SITES
When Occidental acquired Diamond Shamrock Chemicals Company (DSCC) in 1986, Maxus, a subsidiary of YPF S.A. (YPF), agreed to indemnify Occidental for a number of environmental sites, including the Diamond Alkali Superfund Site (Site) along a portion of the Passaic River. On September 17, 2016, Maxus and several affiliated companies filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Federal District Court in the State of Delaware. Prior to filing for bankruptcy, Maxus defended and indemnified Occidental in connection with clean-up and other costs associated with the sites subject to the indemnity, including the Site.

In March 2016, the EPA issued a Record of Decision (ROD) specifying remedial actions required for the lower 8.3 miles of the Lower Passaic River. The ROD does not address any potential remedial action for the upper 9 miles of the Lower Passaic River or Newark Bay. During the third quarter of 2016, and following Maxus’s bankruptcy filing, Occidental and the EPA entered into an Administrative Order on Consent (AOC) to complete the design of the proposed clean-up plan outlined in the ROD at an estimated cost of $165 million. The EPA announced that it will pursue similar agreements with other potentially responsible parties.

Occidental has accrued a reserve relating to its estimated allocable share of the costs to perform the design and remediation called for in the AOC and the ROD, as well as for certain other Maxus-indemnified sites. Occidental's accrued estimated environmental reserve does not consider any recoveries for indemnified costs. Occidental’s ultimate share of this liability may be higher or lower than the reserved amount, and is subject to final design plans and the resolution of Occidental's allocable share with other potentially responsible parties. Occidental continues to evaluate the costs to be incurred to comply with the AOC, the ROD, and to perform remediation at other Maxus-indemnified sites in light of the Maxus bankruptcy and the share of ultimate liability of other potentially responsible parties. In June 2018, Occidental filed a complaint under CERCLA in Federal District Court in the State of New Jersey against numerous potentially responsible parties for reimbursement of amounts incurred or to be incurred to comply with the AOC, the ROD, or to perform other remediation activities at the Site.



In June 2017, the court overseeing the Maxus bankruptcy approved a Plan of Liquidation (Plan) to liquidate Maxus and create a trust to pursue claims against YPF, Repsol, and others to satisfy claims by Occidental and other creditors for past and future cleanup and other costs. In July 2017, the court-approved Plan became final and the trust became effective. Among other responsibilities, the trust will pursue claims against YPF, Repsol and others and distribute assets to Maxus' creditors in accordance with the trust agreement and Plan. In June 2018, the trust filed its complaint against YPF and Repsol in Delaware bankruptcy court asserting claims based upon, among other things, fraudulent transfer and alter ego. On February 15,During 2019, the bankruptcy court denied Repsol's and YPF's motions to dismiss the complaint.complaint as well as their motions to move the case away from the bankruptcy court. Discovery remains ongoing at the time of this report.

NOTE 12 - RETIREMENT AND POSTRETIREMENT BENEFIT PLANS

Occidental has various defined benefit pension plans for certain domestic union, non-union hourly and foreign national employees. In addition, Occidental also provides medical and other benefits for certain active, retired and disabled employees and their eligible dependents.

In conjunction with the Merger,Acquisition, Occidental acquired certain Anadarko contributory and non-contributory defined benefit pension plans, which include both qualified and supplemental plans, and plans that provide health care and life insurance benefits for certain retired employees.

CURRENT BUSINESS OUTLOOK

Occidental’s operations, financial condition, cash flows and levels of expenditures are highly dependent on oil prices and, to a lesser extent, natural gas and NGL prices, the Midland to Gulf Coast oil spreads and the prices it receives for its chemical products. The Mergerworldwide economy has been severely impacted by the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, which began during the first quarter of 2020. Beginning in the first quarter and continuing through the date of this report, travel restrictions and stay at home orders were implemented for much of the world to limit the spread of COVID-19, which has resulted in a dramatic reduction in oil and gas demand. In March 2020, despite falling demand, certain members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its broader partners (OPEC+) announced their intention to increase crude oil production, and the resulting oversupply led to further declines in oil and gas prices. On April 12, 2020, certain members of OPEC+ agreed to production cuts intended to mitigate the oil supply and demand imbalance to stabilize prices. These production cuts coupled with declining U.S. production helped mitigate the supply and demand imbalance, yet these reductions are not expected to be enough in the near-term to fully offset the decline in demand from the COVID-19 pandemic and prices have remained volatile. With the recent modest crude oil price recovery, several U.S. producers have announced plans to begin restoring some of their curtailed production. We expect that oil prices in the near-term will continue to be influenced by the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting impact on oil and gas demand, the extent to which countries abide by the OPEC+ production agreement, and U.S. production levels.
On August 8,
LIQUIDITY
In response to the dramatic drop in oil prices, Occidental has taken significant measures to reduce its 2020 capital expenditures and cash operating and corporate costs to increase its liquidity. Specifically, Occidental has:

Reduced its 2020 capital budget to a range of $2.4 to $2.6 billion from $5.2 to $5.4 billion, a midpoint reduction of more than 50%;
Made significant cuts to its 2020 operating and corporate costs that are expected to result in cash savings of over $1.0 billion;
Reduced the quarterly common stock dividend to $0.01 per share from $0.79 per share, effective July 2020, which on an annualized basis will reduce its dividend outlay by approximately $2.9 billion to enhance Occidental’s liquidity;
Elected to pay its quarterly dividend on the Series A preferred stock in the form of shares of common stock, in lieu of cash, for the first and second quarters of 2020, preserving $400 million of liquidity. The Board of Directors will assess market conditions and Occidental's financial position on a quarterly basis to determine whether the Series A preferred stock dividend will be paid in shares of common stock, in cash or a combination of shares of common stock and cash; and
Issued $2.0 billion in senior unsecured notes in July 2020 and used the proceeds to satisfy $2.0 billion of 2021 maturities.

In 2019, Occidental acquired allentered into three-way oil collar and calls derivative instruments to reduce its exposure to commodity-price risk and increase the predictability of near-term cash flows. As of June 30, 2020, these three-way oil collars covered 350 MBOED for the remainder of the outstanding sharescalendar year. Through June 30, 2020, Occidental has received $322 million of Anadarko Petroleum Corporation (Anadarko) through a transaction in which an indirect, wholly owned subsidiary of Occidental mergedproceeds associated with these instruments, and into Anadarko (the Merger). Occidental believes that the Merger will enhance Occidental’s Permian Basin leadership position and bolster its portfolio with additional free cash flow-generating assets; generate significant cost and capital synergies as well as capital spending efficiency; enhance its dividend growth strategy while maintaining balance sheet strength; permit Occidental to apply its proven technology and operational excellence to Anadarko’s asset portfolio; and create a global energy leader with enhanced scale and expertise to lead energy into a lower-carbon future.
In connection with the Merger, Occidental agreed to sell to Total all of Anadarko's assets, liabilities, businesses, and operations for Algeria, Ghana, Mozambique, and South Africa (collectively, the Africa Assets) for $8.8 billion, subject to certain purchase price adjustments. In August 2019, a purchase and sale agreement was executed for these assets. On September 27, 2019, Occidental completed the sale of Anadarko’s Mozambique LNG assets to Total for $4.2 billion. The assets and liabilities for Algeria, Ghana and South Africa, are presented as held for sale at September 30, 2019. The results of operationsremaining net fair value of the Africa Assets are presentedthree-way collars and calls was $463 million as discontinued operations.
of June 30, 2020. See Note 36 - The MergerDerivatives, in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part 1I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q,10-Q.
Occidental believes that the significant actions outlined above enhance its liquidity position to fund its operations. Occidental will continue to evaluate the economic environment as well as the commodity price environment and may make further adjustments to its levels of expenditures and operating and corporate costs. However, the ultimate impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Occidental's results of operations, cash flows and financial position are unknown, and those impacts could be material. Additionally, actions taken in response to the current macro-environment may result in the long-term reduction of its capital expenditure and production profile.

DEBT MATURITIES
In July 2020, Occidental issued $2.0 billion in senior unsecured notes (the Senior Notes Offering) of which $500 million matures in each of 2025 and 2027 and $1.0 billion matures in 2030. The net proceeds from the Senior Notes Offering were used to fund its concurrent cash tender offers for certain outstanding senior notes (the Tender Offers). The Tender Offers were completed in July 2020, resulting in the repayment of approximately $2.0 billion of maturities in 2021. After the completion of the Tender Offer, Occidental has debt maturities of approximately $4.4 billion in 2021 (including $480 million due in the first quarter of 2021) and $4.7 billion in 2022. Occidental’s Zero Coupon senior notes due 2036 (Zero Coupons) can be put to Occidental in October of each year, in whole or in part, for the then-accreted
34


value of the outstanding Zero Coupons. The Zero Coupons can next be put to Occidental in October 2020, which, if put in whole, would require a payment of $992 million at such date. Occidental currently has the intent and ability to meet this obligation, including using amounts available under the revolving credit facility (RCF) should the put right be exercised. As of June 30, 2020, Occidental had approximately $1.0 billion of cash and cash equivalents on hand, and as of the date of this filing, $5.0 billion of borrowing capacity under its existing RCF which matures in 2023.
Occidental continues to pursue divestitures of certain assets and intends to use the proceeds from asset sales and free cash flow to repay its nearer-term debt maturities, but the expected timing and final proceeds from such asset sales are uncertain. Occidental currently expects its cash on hand and funds available under its RCF to be sufficient to meet its debt maturities, operating expenditures and other obligations for the next 12 months from the date of this filing. However, given the inherent uncertainty associated with the duration and severity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting impact on oil demand, Occidental may need to seek additional liquidity sources, refinance debt maturities, or both, to fund its operations.

DEBT RATINGS
In connection with the Senior Notes Offering, Occidental's long-term debt credit ratings were reviewed by the three major rating agencies. As of June 30, 2020, Occidental’s long-term debt was rated BB+ by Standard and Poor’s (S&P), BB by Fitch Ratings (Fitch), and Ba2 by Moody’s Investors Service (Moody’s). Any additional downgrade in credit ratings could impact Occidental's ability to access capital and increase its cost of capital. In addition, given that Occidental’s current debt ratings are non-investment grade , Occidental may be requested, and in some cases required, to provide collateral in the form of cash, letters of credit, surety bonds, or other acceptable support as financial assurance of its performance and payment obligations under certain contractual arrangements such as pipeline transportation contracts, oil and gas purchase contracts and certain derivative instruments.
As of the date of this filing, Occidental has provided required financial assurances through a combination of cash, surety bonds, and letters of credit made available to us on a bilateral basis and has not issued any letters under the RCF. For additional information, see Risk Factors in Part II1, Item 1A of thisOccidental’s 2019 Form 10-Q10-K.

IMPACT OF COVID-19 PANDEMIC TO GLOBAL OPERATIONS
Occidental is focused on protecting the health and safety of its employees and contractors during the COVID-19 pandemic. Occidental has implemented workplace restrictions in our offices and work sites for more information. Occidental'shealth and safety reasons, including guidance for employees to work remotely, if able. Occidental has not incurred material costs as a result of new protocols and procedures. Occidental continues to monitor national, state and local government directives where we have operations and/or offices. While Occidental has not incurred any significant disruptions to its day-to-day operations as a result of any workplace restrictions related to the COVID-19 pandemic to-date, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, results of operations, includeand financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.
Occidental's current and future operations are impacted by the resultslower crude oil price environment. In order to maximize liquidity and free cash flow for the second half of Anadarko from August 8, 20192020 at the current commodity price forecast, Occidental plans to September 30, 2019.limit remaining 2020 capital expenditures to between $700 million and $900 million, which is expected to result in lower production volumes, compared to the first half of the year, for the remainder of 2020.

Consolidated ResultsPOTENTIAL FOR ADDITIONAL FUTURE IMPAIRMENTS
As a result of Operations
the expected prolonged period of lower commodity prices brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on oil demand, Occidental reported a loss fromtested substantially all of its oil and gas assets for impairment during the second quarter of 2020. Occidental recognized pre-tax impairment charges of $6.4 billion related to continuing operations of $737 million for the third quarter of 2019 on net sales of $5.7and $2.2 billion comparedrelated to income from continuing operations of $1.9 billion on net sales of $5.2 billion for the third quarter of 2018. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was a loss of $1.06 for the third quarter of 2019 compared to earnings of $2.44 for the third quarter of 2018.

Occidental reported income from continuing operations of $529 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 on net sales of $14.1 billion, compared to income from continuing operations of $3.4 billion on net sales of $13.1 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2018. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was $0.47 for the nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to $4.45 for the nine months ended September 30, 2018.

Excluding the impact of Anadarko merger-related costs, asset impairments, asset and equity investment sales gains, the decrease in income from continuingdiscontinued operations for the three and nine months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020. If there is a further worsening of the macro-economic conditions and if such worsened condition is expected to be prolonged, Occidental’s oil and gas properties may be subject to further testing for impairment, which could result in additional non-cash asset impairments, and such impairments could be material to our financial statements.
Occidental’s equity method investment carrying amount in WES is $4.9 billion as of June 30, 2020. The initial carrying amount was established based on WES’s market capitalization as of December 31, 2019 comparedupon Occidental’s loss of control of WES’s general partner. WES’ unit price has been volatile during the second quarter of 2020 trading from approximately $3.00 to over $12.00 per unit and closing at $10.04 per unit as of June 30, 2020. Accordingly, Occidental has concluded that the same periodscurrent short-term loss in 2018, is primarily related to lower crude oil prices, lower realized caustic soda pricesvalue has not met the other-than-temporary criteria under accounting literature governing equity method investments as of June 30, 2020 given the volatility of WES’ unit price and lower marketing margins, the effects of which were partially offset by higher crude oil production volumes acquired withsignificant unit price improvement over the Merger and from legacy Occidental operations in the Permian Basin.

Selected Statements of Operations Items
Net sales increasedsecond quarter. However, if WES’s unit price remains significantly below its year-end 2019 unit price for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, comparedremainder of 2020, Occidental may be be required to reduce the same periodcarrying amount of its equity method investment in 2018, primarily due to higher domestic crude oil volumes from the assets acquired through the Merger and from legacy Permian Resources operations. Increases in net sales were partially offset by lower crude oil prices and lower realized caustic soda prices in the Chemical segment.

Oil and gas operating expense and transportation expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, primarily due to higher production costs for surface operations and maintenance due to increased production as a result of the Merger. Purchased commodities increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, due to higher third-party crude purchases related to the Marketing and Other Midstream segment. DD&A (depreciation, depletion and amortization) expense increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, was primarily due to depreciation associated with assets acquired through the Merger.

Interest and debt expense, net, increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, compared to the same periods in 2018, due to the increase in debt issued to partially fund the Merger, as well as the debt assumed through the Merger.

The decrease in the provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018 reflects lower pre-tax income, which is offset by an increase in tax as a result of transaction-related costs for which Occidental received no tax benefit.



Segment Operations
Occidental conducts its operations through four segments: (1) Oil and Gas; (2) Chemical; (3) Marketing and Other Midstream; and (4)WES. WES Midstream. The Oil and Gas segment explores for, develops and produces oil and condensate, natural gas liquids (NGL) and natural gas. The Chemical segment mainly manufactures and markets basic chemicals and vinyls. The Marketing and Other Midstream segment purchases, markets, gathers, processes, transports and stores oil, condensate, NGL, natural gas, CO2 and power. Additionally, the Marketing and Other Midstream segment invests in entities that conduct similar activities. The WES Midstream segment owns gathering systems, plants and pipelines and earns revenue from fee-based and service-based contracts with Occidental and third parties.parties, which could be impacted by lower demand for oil and gas associated with the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

PROVED RESERVES
Occidental's proved reserves are estimated using the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month price for each month within the applicable year. The average first-day-of-the-month prices used to compute proved reserves at December 31, 2019, were $55.69 per barrel for WTI, $63.03 per barrel for Brent, and $2.58 per MMBtu for Henry Hub. The average first-day-of-the-month prices for the first eight months of 2020 are $39.13 per barrel for WTI, $43.69 per barrel for Brent, and $1.75 per MMBtu for Henry Hub. If commodity prices continue to remain below the average prices used to estimate Occidental's year-end 2019 proved reserves, Occidental would expect negative price-related reserve revisions at year-end 2020, the magnitude of which could be significant. In addition, as Occidental lowers its projected capital spending this could result in a material amount of proved undeveloped reserves no longer being supportable within a five-year development plan and thus no longer meeting the criteria to be classified as proved. Occidental had proved undeveloped reserves of 905 MMBOE at December 31, 2019.
The most significant ongoing financial statement effect from a change in Occidental’s oil and gas reserves or impairment of its proved properties would be to the DD&A (depreciation, depletion and amortization) rate. For example, a 5 percent increase or decrease in the amount of oil and gas reserves would increase or decrease pre-tax income by approximately $165 million for the remainder of the year.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Occidental reported a loss from continuing operations of $6.7 billion for the second quarter of 2020 on net sales of $2.9 billion, compared to income from continuing operations of $635 million on net sales of $4.4 billion for the second quarter of 2019. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was a loss of $7.58 for the second quarter of 2020 compared to earnings per share of $0.84 for the second quarter of 2019.
Occidental reported a loss from continuing operations of $8.7 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2020, on net sales of $9.5 billion, compared to income from continuing operations of $1.3 billion on net sales of $8.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2019. Diluted earnings from continuing operations per share was a loss of $10.12 for the six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to earnings per share of $1.68 for the six months ended June 30, 2019.
Excluding the impact of asset impairments, gains on the oil collars and calls, net losses on the interest rate swaps and acquisition-related costs, the decrease in income from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same periods in 2019, is primarily related to lower crude oil prices, which declined over 35%, lower marketing margins due to the tightening of the Midland to MEH differential and higher interest expense due to the increase in debt issued to partially fund the Acquisition, as well as the debt assumed through the Acquisition, the effects of which were partially offset by higher crude oil, NGLs, and natural gas production volumes acquired with the Acquisition.

SELECTED STATEMENTS OF OPERATIONS ITEMS
Net sales decreased for the second quarter of 2020 compared to the same period in 2019, primarily as a result of lower crude oil prices, which declined over 35%, lower marketing margins due to the tightening of the Midland to MEH differentials, and lower realized caustic soda prices and overall sales volumes in the chemical segment, which was partially offset by higher crude oil, NGLs, and natural gas production volumes.
Net sales increased for the six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to higher crude oil, NGLs, natural gas production volumes from the assets acquired through the Acquisition, which was partially offset by lower crude oil prices, lower marketing margins and lower realized caustic soda prices and overall sales volumes in the chemical segment.
Oil and gas operating expense and transportation expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to higher transportation expenses and production costs for surface operations and maintenance due to increased production as a result of the Acquisition. Purchased commodities decreased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, due to lower crude oil prices on third-party crude purchases related to the midstream and marketing segment. DD&A expense increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, primarily due to depreciation associated with assets acquired through the Acquisition. Asset impairments and other charges for the three months ended June 30, 2020 included $6.4 billion in pre-tax impairments on oil and gas proved and unproved properties. In addition, asset impairments and other charges for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included a $1.2 billion impairment of goodwill attributable to Occidental's ownership in WES as well as other impairments to both proved and unproved oil and gas properties and lower of cost or net realizable value adjustments for crude inventory.
Interest and debt expense, net, increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, compared to the same period in 2019, due to the increase in debt issued to partially fund the Acquisition, as well as the debt assumed through the Acquisition.
36


The decrease in the provision for income taxes from continuing operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 compared to the same period in 2019 reflects lower pre-tax income, which is primarily offset by the impairment of certain international assets and the WES goodwill, for which the company receives no tax benefit. The difference between the 15 percent effective tax rate for the first half of 2020 and the 21 percent U.S. federal statutory tax rate is similarly primarily driven by the international asset impairments and WES goodwill.

SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND ITEMS AFFECTING COMPARABILITY
SEGMENT RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Occidental’s principal businesses consist of three reporting segments: oil and gas, chemical, and midstream and marketing. The oil and gas segment explores for, develops and produces oil and condensate, natural gas liquids (NGL) and natural gas. The chemical segment (OxyChem) mainly manufactures and markets basic chemicals and vinyls. The midstream and marketing segment purchases, markets, gathers, processes, transports and stores oil, condensate, NGL, natural gas, carbon dioxide (CO2) and power. It also trades around its assets, including transportation and storage capacity, and invests in entities that conduct similar activities such as Western Midstream Partners, L.P. (WES).
The following table sets forth the sales and earnings of each operating segment and corporate items for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, and 2018:2019:

The decrease in the provision for income taxes for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 compared to the same periods in 2018, reflects lower pre-tax income, which is offset by an increase in tax as a result of merger-related costs for which Occidental received no tax benefit.




Oil and Gas SegmentOIL AND GAS SEGMENT
Oil and Gasgas segment earningslosses were $221 million$7.7 billion and $1.4$7.5 billion for the three and ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, respectively, compared with segment earnings of $767$726 million and $2.3$1.2 billion for the same periods of 2018. The2019. Excluding the impact of asset impairments and other charges and gains on the oil collars and calls, the decrease in earnings primarily reflected lower realized crude oil NGL and natural gas prices, partially offset by higher crude oil, NGL and natural gas sales volumes mostly due to added production from the Merger and increased production in the legacy Occidental Permian Resources business unit.Acquisition.

Chemical SegmentCHEMICAL SEGMENT
Chemical segment earnings for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2020 and 2019 and 2018 were $207$108 million and $321$208 million, respectively. Compared to the third quarter of 2018, the third quarter of 2019 reflected a decline in realized caustic soda prices along with weaker vinyl margins, slightly offset by stronger export caustic soda demand. Chemical segment earningsrespectively, and $294 million and $473 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020 and 2018, were $680 million and $936 million,2019, respectively. Compared to the same periodperiods in 2018,2019, the ninethree and six months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020 reflected lower realized caustic soda prices and overall lower sales volumes as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, partially offset by favorable feedstock costs. The ninelower natural gas costs and lower plant spending.

MIDSTREAM AND MARKETING SEGMENT
Midstream and marketing segment loss for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 was $7 million and $1.3 billion, respectively, compared with earnings also reflected fees received underof $331 million and $610 million for the same periods in 2019, respectively. Segment losses for the six months ended June 30, 2020 included impairments and related charges of $1.5 billion, primarily related to the impairment of goodwill related to WES, a loss from an equity investment related to WES's write-off of its goodwill and impairments to record inventory at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Excluding these impairments, midstream and marketing earnings declined compared to the prior period mainly due to lower marketing margins from the tightening of the Midland to MEH differentials, lower sulfur prices impacting Al Hosn Gas and lower pipeline easement agreement that was executed duringincome from the firstsale of the Plains equity investment in the third quarter of 2019.2019.

The difference between the 18 percent effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the three months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, compared with earnings2020 and the 21 percent U.S. federal statutory tax rate is primarily driven by the impairment of $1.7 billionAlgeria oil and gas properties, for which the company receives no tax benefit. The difference between the 15 percent effective tax rate for income from continuing operations for the same period of 2018. Marketing and Other Midstream earnings were $876 million for the ninesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019, compared with earnings2020 and the U.S. federal statutory tax rate is primarily driven by the impairment of $2.1 billionthe WES goodwill and international assets, for which the same period of 2018.

On March 27, 2020, the threePresident signed into law the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and nine months ended September 30, 2018 included a $902 million gain from the sale of non-core domestic midstream assets. Excluding this gain on sale, the decreaseEconomic Security Act (hereafter, CARES Act), an economic stimulus package in earnings was attributable to lower marketing margins due to decreased crude oil price spreads, lower NGL prices impacting gas processing and lower pipeline income dueresponse to the saleCOVID-19 pandemic. The CARES Act contains several corporate income tax provisions, including provisions allowing for immediate refund of non-core domestic midstream assetsremaining unutilized AMT credits as well as allowing a 5-year carryback of net operating losses generated in tax years 2018, 2019, and 2020. As of the third quarterdate of 2018.this report, Occidental received approximately $170 million of cash refunds as a result of the aforementioned AMT credit and NOL carryback provisions and anticipates an additional $25 million cash refund by the end of the year. Occidental does not currently expect the various provisions of the CARES Act to have a material effect on current income tax expense or the realizability of deferred income tax assets. Occidental will continue to monitor additional guidance issued by the U.S. Treasury Department and the Internal Revenue Service.

WES Midstream segment earnings from the Merger date to September 30, 2019 was $134 million and income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $42 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
At SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental had $4.8approximately $1.0 billion in cash and cash equivalents and $0.5approximately $0.1 billion in restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents, which was primarily associated with a benefits trust for former Anadarko employees that was funded as part of the Merger.Acquisition, payments of future hard-minerals royalties conveyed, and a judicially controlled account related to a Brazilian tax dispute. Restricted cash within the benefits trust will be made available to Occidental as payments are made to former Anadarko employees. InRefer to the third quarterCurrent Business Outlook section of 2019,the Management’s Discussion and Analysis for actions Occidental initiated a voluntary severance programhas taken to align the size and composition of its workforce with its expected future operating and capital plans. Additional expenses associated with the program are expected to be incurred throughout the remainder of 2019 and through most of 2020. With a continued focus on capital and operational efficiencies, Occidental expects to fundimprove its liquidity needs,position in the current business environment, including future dividend payments, through cash on hand, cash generated from operations, monetization of non-core assets or investmentsthe July 2020 Senior Notes Offering and if necessary, proceeds from other forms of capital issuance.

Operating cash flow from continuing operations was $5.4approximately $1.7 billion for the first ninesix months of 2019,2020, compared to $5.2approximately $3.0 billion for the same period of 2018.2019. The increasedecrease in operating cash flow from continuing operations mainly reflectedis primarily due to lower crude oil prices and higher production, which wasinterest expense, partially offset by lowerhigher crude oil, pricesNGLs, and Merger-related costs.

natural gas production volumes.
Occidental’s net cash used by investing activities from continuing operations was $27.6approximately $2.1 billion for the first ninesix months of 2019,2020, compared to $1.7approximately $2.7 billion for the same period of 2018.2019. Capital expenditures for the first ninesix months of 2020 and 2019 were $4.2approximately $1.7 billion and $2.5 billion respectively, of which $3.8 billionsubstantially all was for the Oiloil and Gas segment, compared to $3.6 billion for the first nine months of 2018, of which $3.2 billion was for the Oil and Gasgas segment. The primary use of cash for investing activities was the cash portion of the Merger consideration, net of the cash acquired in the Merger. Proceeds from the sale of assets and equity investments, net included the sale of Anadarko's Mozambique LNG assets, as well as proceeds from the sale of Occidental's Plains All American Pipeline equity investment.

Occidental’s net cash providedused by financing activities from continuing operations was $24.7approximately $2.0 billion for the first ninesix months of 2019,2020, compared to $2.2approximately $1.5 billion cash used for the same period of 2018.2019. Cash providedused by financing activities for the first ninesix months of 2020 and 2019 mainly reflected the issuance of long-term debt and preferred shares to consummate the Merger. These proceeds were partially offset by the partial repayment of the term loans and the payment of dividends. The nine months ended September 30, 2019,dividends of $1.6 billion and 2018, each included dividend payments of $1.8 billion.

$1.2 billion respectively.
As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, and as of the date of this filing, Occidental was in compliance with all covenants ofin its financing agreementsagreements. Occidental currently expects its cash on hand and had capacityfunds available under its RCF to be sufficient to meet its debt maturities, operating expenditures and other obligations for the paymentnext 12 months from the date of cash dividendsthis filing. However, given the inherent uncertainty associated with the duration and other distributionsseverity of the COVID-19 pandemic and its resulting impact on oil demand, Occidental may need to seek additional liquidity sources, refinance debt maturities, or acquisitionsboth, to fund its operations.

Environmental Liabilities and Expenditures
ENVIRONMENTAL LIABILITIES AND EXPENDITURES

Occidental’s operations are subject to stringent federal, state, local and foreign laws and regulations related to improving or maintaining environmental quality. Occidental’s environmental compliance costs have generally increased over time and are expected to rise in the future. Occidental factors environmental expenditures for its operations as an integral part of its business planning process.

The laws that require or address environmental remediation, including CERCLA and similar federal, state, local and international laws, may apply retroactively and regardless of fault, the legality of the original activities or the current ownership or control of sites. OccidentalOPC or certain of its subsidiaries participate in or actively monitor a range of remedial activities and government or private proceedings under these laws with respect to alleged past practices at operating, closed and third-party sites. Remedial activities may include one or more of the following: investigation involving sampling, modeling, risk assessment or monitoring; cleanup measures including removal, treatment or disposal of hazardous substances;disposal; or operation and maintenance of remedial systems. TheseThe environmental proceedings seek funding or performance of remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages, civil penalties, injunctive relief and government oversight costs.

See Note 2 - Accounting and Disclosure Changes, in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Occidental's primary market risks are attributable to fluctuations in commodity prices and interest rates. These risks can affect revenues and cash flows, and Occidental's risk-management policies provide for the use of derivative instruments to manage these risks. The types of commodity derivative instruments used by Occidental include futures, swaps, options and fixed-price physical-delivery contracts. The volume of commodity derivatives entered into by Occidental is governed by risk-management policies and may vary from year to year. Both exchange and over-the-counter traded derivative instruments may be subject to margin-deposit requirements, and Occidental may be required from time to time to deposit cash or provide letters of credit with exchange brokers or counterparties to satisfy these margin requirements. For additional information relating to Occidental's derivative and financial instruments, see Note 7—Derivative Instruments6-Derivatives in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Commodity Price Risk
COMMODITY PRICE RISK

Occidental's most significant market risk relates to prices for oil, natural gas, and NGL.NGLs. Management expects energy prices to remain unpredictable and potentially volatile. As energy prices decline or rise significantly, revenues and cash flows are likewise affected. In addition, a non-cash write-down of Occidental's oil and gas properties or goodwill may be required if commodity prices experience further declines or persist at current levels.
As a significant decline.

result of the expected prolonged period of lower commodity prices brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on oil demand, Occidental tested substantially all of its oil and gas assets for impairment during the second quarter of 2020. Occidental's oil and gas segment recognized pre-tax impairments of approximately $8.6 billion related to both proved and unproved oil and gas properties for the three months ended June 30, 2020. If the macro-economic conditions that exist as of the date of this Form 10-Q continue or worsen for a prolonged period, our operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected, and our oil and gas properties may be subject to further testing for impairment. This could result in additional non-cash asset impairments, and such impairments could be material to our financial statements.
Derivative Instruments Held for Non-Trading Purposes

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS HELD FOR NON-TRADING PURPOSES

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental had derivative instruments in place to reduce the price risk associated with future crude oil production of 300350 thousand barrels per day. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, these derivative instruments were at a $95$463 million net derivative asset position.

The following table shows a sensitivity analysis based on both a five-percent and ten-percent change in commodity prices and their effect on the net derivative asset position of $95$463 million at SeptemberJune 30, 2019:2020:

INTEREST RATE RISK



Interest Rate Risk
Occidental acquired interest rate swap contracts in the Merger.Acquisition. Occidental pays a fixed interest rate and receives a floating interest rate indexed to three-month London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (LIBOR). The swaps have an initial term of 30 years with mandatory termination dates in September 20202021 through 2023 and a total notional amount of $1.6$1.5 billion as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019. In October 2019, $125 million of notional interest rate swaps were terminated.2020. As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental had a net liability of $1.4approximately $1.6 billion based on the fair value of the swaps of negative $1.7$2.0 billion netted against $359$424 million in posted cash collateral. A 25-basis point decrease in implied LIBOR rates over the term of the swaps would result in an additional liability of approximately $130$120 million on these swaps.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental had $6.5variable rate debt with a notional value of $4.5 billion of variable-rate debt outstanding, excluding WES.outstanding. A 25-basis point increase in LIBOR interest rates would increase gross interest expense approximately $16$11 million per year.

As of SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, Occidental had $32.6fixed rate debt with a fair value of $27.1 billion of fixed-rate debt outstanding, excluding WES.outstanding. A 25-basis point change in Treasury rates would change the fair value of the fixed-ratefixed rate debt approximately $680$423 million.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Occidental's President and Chief Executive Officer and its Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer supervised and participated in Occidental's evaluation of the effectiveness of its disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, Occidental's President and Chief Executive Officer and Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded that Occidental's disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of SeptemberJune 30, 2019.

2020.
Except as described below, there has been no change in Occidental's internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) during the threesix months ended SeptemberJune 30, 2019,2020, that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, Occidental's internal control over financial reporting.

In January 2020, Occidental implemented an Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system for certain of its legacy U.S. businesses. As a result of this implementation, certain internal controls over financial reporting have been automated, modified or implemented to address the new environment associated with the implementation of this type of system. While Occidental believes that this new system will strengthen the internal control system, there are inherent risks in implementing any new system and Occidental will continue to evaluate these control changes as part of its assessment of internal control over financial reporting.
In the thirdsecond quarter of 2019,2020, Occidental startedcontinued the process of integrating Anadarko into its operations and internal control processes, resulting in some of Anadarko’s historical internal controls over financial reporting being superseded by Occidental’s internal controls.controls over financial reporting. Management will continue to integrate Anadarko's historical internal controls over financial reporting with Occidental's internal controls over financial reporting. This integrationreporting, which may lead to changes in Occidental's or Anadarko’s historical internal controls over financial reporting in future fiscal periods. Occidental is also in the process of implementing a new Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. Occidental intends to integrate Anadarko’s internal control processes into Occidental’s internal control processes in conjunction with implementation of the ERP system. Management expects the integration process to be completed during 2021.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

Other than as set forth below, there have been no material changes to the disclosure presented in the 20182019 Form 10-K under Part I. Item 1A and the disclosure presented in the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 under Part II. Item 1A.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected our business, and the ultimate effect on our operations and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected the global economy, disrupted global supply chains and created significant volatility in the financial markets. In addition, the pandemic has resulted in travel restrictions, business closures and the institution of quarantining and other restrictions on movement in many communities. As a result, there has been a significant reduction in demand for and prices of crude oil, natural gas and NGL. If the reduced demand for and prices of crude oil, natural gas and NGL continue for a prolonged period, our operations, financial condition, cash flows, level of expenditures and the quantity of estimated proved reserves that may be attributed to our properties may be materially and adversely affected. Our operations also may be adversely affected if significant portions of our workforce are unable to work effectively, including because of illness, quarantines, government actions, or other restrictions in connection with the pandemic. We have implemented workplace restrictions in our offices and work sites for health and safety reasons, including guidance for our non-essential employees to work remotely if able, and continue to monitor national, state and local government directives where we have operations and/or offices. Further, our business plan, including our financing and liquidity plan, includes, among other things, planned divestitures. If general economic conditions or conditions in the energy industry persist at current levels for an extended period of time, we may not be able to complete these transactions on favorable terms, in a timely manner or at all. The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted, including the scope and duration of the pandemic and actions taken by governmental authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic. The COVID-19 pandemic may also materially adversely affect our operating and financial results in a manner that is not currently known to us or that we do not currently consider to present significant risks to our operations. To the extent the COVID-19 pandemic adversely affects our business, operations, financial condition and operating results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this "Risk Factors" section, the 2019 Form 10-K under Part I Item IA and the Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2020 under Part II Item 1A.

The diversionCrude oil prices declined significantly in the first quarter of resources2020 and management’s attentionhave remained depressed. If oil prices further decline or remain at current levels for a prolonged period, our operations and financial condition may be materially and adversely affected.

In the first half of 2020, crude oil prices fell sharply and dramatically, due in part to significantly decreased demand as a result of the integrationCOVID-19 pandemic and the announcement by Saudi Arabia of Anadarko could adversely affect day-to-day business.

The integration of Anadarko places a significant burden on Occidental’s management and internal resources. The diversion of management’s attention away from day-to-day business concerns and any difficulties encounteredincrease in the transition and integration process could adversely affect financial results.

Occidental may not be able to integrate Anadarko successfully, and many of the anticipated benefits of combining Anadarko and Occidental may not be realized.

Occidental acquired Anadarko with the expectation that the Merger will result in various benefits, including, among other things, operating efficiencies. Achieving those anticipated benefits is subject to a number of uncertainties, including whether Occidental can integrate the business of Anadarko in an efficient and effective manner, and Occidental cannot assure you that those benefits will be realized as quickly as expected or at all. If Occidental does not achieve those benefits, costs could increase, expected net income could decrease, and future business, financial condition, operating results, and prospects could suffer.

The integration process could take longer than anticipated and involve unanticipated costs. Disruptions of each company’s ongoing businesses, processes, and systems or inconsistencies in standards, controls, procedures, practices, policies, and compensation arrangements could adversely affect the combined company. Occidental may also have difficulty addressing differences in corporate cultures and management philosophies, and in harmonizing other systems and business practices. Although Occidental expects that the elimination of certain duplicative costs,its maximum crude oil production capacity as well as the realizationannouncement by Russia that previously agreed upon oil production cuts among members of other efficiencies relatedthe Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its broader partners (“OPEC+”) would expire on April 1, 2020, and the ensuing expiration thereof. Recent agreed-upon production cuts by OPEC+ along with declining U.S. production have helped to correct the supply and demand imbalance; however, these reductions are not expected to be enough in the near-term to offset the significant inventory build caused by the demand destruction from the COVID-19 pandemic in the first half of 2020. Prices for WTI crude oil were over $60 per barrel at the beginning of 2020 before declining significantly through March and further declining into April. While crude oil prices modestly recovered in June 2020, a reversal of recent improvements or a prolonged period at current prices may materially and adversely affect our operations, financial condition, cash flows, level of expenditures and the quantity of estimated proved reserves that may be attributed to our properties.

As domestic demand for crude oil has declined substantially due to the integrationCOVID-19 pandemic, we cannot ensure that there will be a physical market for our production at economic prices until markets stabilize.

As a result of the two businesses, will over time offset the substantial incremental transactionlow commodity prices, we have curtailed a portion of our estimated crude oil production and Merger-related costs, Occidental may not achieve this net benefitstore rather than sell additional crude oil production in the near term,future. Additionally, the excess supply of oil could lead to further curtailments by our crude oil purchasers. We have contracted for additional storage capacity and began incurring incremental costs for such services in the second quarter of 2020. While we believe that the shutting-in of such production will not impact the productivity of such wells when reopened, there is no assurance we will not have a degradation in well performance upon returning those wells to production. The storing or at all.



Future results will be negatively impacted if Occidental does not effectively manage its expanded operations.

With completionshutting in of a portion of our production can also result in increased costs under our midstream and other contracts. Any of the Merger,foregoing could result in an adverse impact on our revenues, financial position and cash flows.

We have recorded impairments of our proved and unproved oil and gas properties and will continue to assess further impairments in the sizefuture.

We have recorded impairments of Occidental’s business has increased significantly. Occidental’s continued success depends,our proved and unproved oil and gas properties resulting from prolonged declines in part, uponoil prices and may record such impairments in the future. Past impairments include pre-tax impairment and related charges to both proved and unproved oil and gas properties, and a lower of cost or net realizable value adjustment for crude inventory. In the second quarter of 2020, Occidental recognized a pre-tax impairment to its ability to manage this expanded business, which poses substantial challenges for management, including challenges related tooil and gas proved and unproved properties of $8.6 billion. If the management and monitoring of new operations and associated increased costs and complexity. Occidental cannot assure youmacro-economic conditions that it will be successful or that it will realize the expected operating efficiencies, cost savings, and other benefits from the combination currently anticipated.

Occidental has incurred a substantial amount of indebtedness and other payment obligations in connection with the financingexist as of the Merger and may be unable to service and repay such indebtedness.

Occidental funded the cash portion of the Merger consideration by incurring $21.8 billion of third-party indebtedness and issuing shares of series A preferred stock and a warrant to acquire common stock pursuant to the Berkshire Hathaway Inc. investment. In addition, Occidental assumed approximately $11.9 billion aggregate principal amount of Anadarko’s outstanding long-term debt, excluding finance lease liabilities, as well as approximately $7.3 billion aggregate principal amount of WES Midstream’s outstanding short- and long-term debt in the Merger. Occidental cannot guarantee that it will be able to generate sufficient cash flow to service and repay this indebtedness or to pay the dividends required to be paid on the series A preferred stock, or that it will be able to refinance such indebtedness on favorable terms, or at all. The failure to so repay or refinance such indebtedness, or to pay dividends on such series A preferred stock, could have a material adverse effect on Occidental’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or share price. If Occidental is unable to service such indebtedness and fund its operations, Occidental may be forced to reduce or delay capital expenditures, seek additional capital, sell assets or refinance Occidental’s indebtedness. Any such action may not be successful and Occidental may be unable to service such indebtedness and its operations, which could have a material adverse effect on Occidental’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or share price.

Occidental may not be able to complete the sale to Total S.A. of the assets, liabilities, businesses and operations of Anadarko in Algeria, Ghana and South Africa or complete its planned divestitures of certain assets on favorable terms or at all.

The Total transaction is conditioned on the receipt of required regulatory approvals as well as other customary closing conditions. Occidental may not be able to complete the Total transaction or obtain the proceeds that could be realized from it, and those cash proceeds may not be adequate to meet any debt service obligations then due. In addition, although Occidental intends to complete $10 billion to $15 billion of divestitures of certain assets within 24 months after completion of the Merger (including the Total transaction), Occidental may not be able to complete its planned divestitures on favorable terms or at all. Any difficulties with respect to the completion of the Total transaction or other planned divestitures could have a material adverse effect on Occidental’s business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows and/or stock price. See Note 4 - Acquisitions, Dispositions, and Other, in the Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements in Part I Item 1date of this Form 10-Q continue or worsen for more information about the Total transaction.



Occidental’s operations and financial results could be significantly negatively impacted by its offshore operations.

Occidental is vulnerable to risks associated with our offshore operations that could negatively impacta prolonged period, our operations and financial results. Occidental conducts offshore operationscondition may be materially and adversely affected, and our oil and gas properties may be subject to further testing for impairment. This could result in the Gulf of Mexico, Ghanaadditional non-cash asset impairments, and other countries. Occidental's operations and financial resultssuch impairments could be significantly impacted by conditions in some of these areas and are also vulnerablematerial to certain unique risks associated with operating offshore, including those relating to the following:our financial statements.

• hurricanes and other adverse weather conditions
• geological complexities and water depths associated with such operations
• limited number of partners available to participate in projects
• oilfield service costs and availability
• compliance with environmental, safety, and other laws and regulations
• terrorist attacks or piracy
• remediation and other costs and regulatory changes resulting from oil spills or releases of hazardous materials
• failure of equipment or facilities
• response capabilities for personnel, equipment, or environmental incidents

In addition, Occidental conducts some of its exploration in deep waters (greater than 1,000 feet) where operations, support services, and decommissioning activities are more difficult and costly than in shallower waters. The deep waters in the Gulf of Mexico, as well as international deepwater locations, lack the physical and oilfield service infrastructure present in shallower waters. As a result, deepwater operations may require significant time between a discovery and the time that Occidental can market its production, thereby increasing the risk involved with these operations.


Item 2.Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds


On April 15, 2020, Occidental paid the quarterly dividend on its Series A Preferred Stock in the form of shares of Occidental's common stock. Pursuant to the Certificate of Designations dated as of August 8, 2019 in connection withestablishing the Merger, Occidentalrelative powers, preferences, rights, qualifications, limitations and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock, an aggregate of 17,274,130 shares of common stock were issued to Berkshire Hathaway Inc. and certainthe holders of its subsidiaries 100,000 sharesrecord of seriesthe Series A preferred stock (the Preferred Stock) with a warrant to purchase 80 million shares of Occidental common stock at an exercise price of $62.50 (the Warrant) for $10 billion.
