Exhibit 99.4
UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
On December 10, 2023, Occidental Petroleum Corporation (“Occidental”) and certain of its subsidiaries entered into an agreement (the “purchase agreement”) to purchase CrownRock, L.P. (“CrownRock”) for total consideration of approximately $12.5 billion (“the acquisition”) consisting of $9.4 billion of cash consideration (inclusive of and subject to certain working capital adjustments set forth in the purchase agreement), approximately 29.6 million shares of common stock of Occidental, and the assumption of $1.2 billion of existing debt of CrownRock. Concurrent with or prior to the acquisition closing, Occidental intends to issue $9.7 billion aggregate principal amount of new debt.
In 2019, Occidental Midland Basin, LLC, a wholly owned indirect subsidiary of Occidental (“Occidental Midland Basin”), and Ecopetrol Permian LLC (“Ecopetrol”), formed Rodeo Midland Basin, LLC (the “Rodeo Midland Basin Joint Venture”), as a joint venture to develop and operate oil and gas properties in the Midland Basin. Under that joint venture, each of Occidental Midland Basin and Ecopetrol were given the right, subject to certain conditions, to participate in oil and gas interests acquired by the other and its affiliates in an area of mutual interest. On March 4, 2024, Occidental Midland Basin and Ecopetrol entered into a letter agreement regarding Ecopetrol’s evaluation of CrownRock’s assets. On May 31, 2024, Ecopetrol notified Occidental of its intent to acquire an undivided thirty percent (30%) interest in the CrownRock assets, subject to the negotiation of a mutually agreeable transaction structure. Occidental and Ecopetrol are engaged in discussions regarding a structure for Ecopetrol’s potential acquisition of an undivided thirty percent (30%) interest in the CrownRock assets (the “Ecopetrol Transaction”). If consummated, Occidental expects the Ecopetrol Transaction purchase price to be approximately $3.6 billion (which equates to approximately thirty percent (30%) of the aggregate consideration to be paid by Occidental in connection with the acquisition), subject to customary purchase price adjustments based on a January 1, 2024 effective date. If Occidental and Ecopetrol are unable to reach agreement regarding the structure of the Ecopetrol Transaction and the joint ownership, development and operation of the CrownRock assets related to such Ecopetrol Transaction in August 2024, then Ecopetrol will have an option to elect for the Rodeo Midland Basin Joint Venture to acquire the CrownRock assets, resulting in an indirect ownership by Ecopetrol of an undivided forty-nine percent (49%) interest in the CrownRock assets (the “Ecopetrol Option”). The Ecopetrol Option expires in August 2024, and there is no assurance that Ecopetrol can or would exercise the Ecopetrol Option.
The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements (the “pro forma financial statements”) presented below have been prepared from the respective historical consolidated financial statements of Occidental and CrownRock and have been adjusted to reflect (i) the completion of the acquisition, (ii) Occidental’s incurrence of $9.7 billion aggregate principal amount of new indebtedness, (iii) the issuance of approximately 29.6 million shares of Occidental’s common stock, (iv) the redemption of CrownRock’s unsecured senior notes due in 2025 (the “CrownRock 2025 notes”) and (v) the Ecopetrol Transaction (which is subject to entry into definitive agreements and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby). The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet (the “pro forma balance sheet”) is presented as if the transactions had been completed on March 31, 2024. The unaudited pro forma combined statements of operations (the “pro forma statements of operations”) for the year ended December 31, 2023, and for the three months ended March 31, 2024, are presented as if the transactions had been completed on January 1, 2023. The amounts related to discontinued operations in Occidental’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024 have been excluded from the pro forma statements of operations.
The pro forma financial statements have been prepared from, and should be read in conjunction with, (i) the unaudited consolidated financial statements of Occidental contained in its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024, (ii) the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of CrownRock for the three months ended March 31, 2024 included as Exhibit 99.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K which these pro forma financial statements are filed with as Exhibit 99.4, (iii) the audited consolidated financial statements of Occidental contained in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and (iv) the audited consolidated financial statements of CrownRock for the year ended December 31, 2023, included as Exhibit 99.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K which these pro forma financial statements are filed with as Exhibit 99.4. Certain of CrownRock’s historical amounts have been reclassified to conform to Occidental’s financial statement presentation.
The pro forma financial statements have been prepared to reflect adjustments to Occidental’s historical consolidated financial information that are (i) directly attributable to the acquisition, (ii) factually supportable and (iii) with respect to the pro forma statements of operations only, expected to have a continuing impact on Occidental’s results.
The pro forma financial statements reflect the following pro forma adjustments, based on available information and certain assumptions that Occidental believes are reasonable:
• the acquisition of CrownRock contemplated by the purchase agreement under the acquisition method of accounting;
• the assumption of liabilities for expenses related to the transactions;
• the incurrence by Occidental of $9.7 billion of new indebtedness, consisting of (i) $2.0 billion in term loans with a maturity of 364 days and $2.7 billion in term loans with a maturity of two years borrowed under a term loan agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as administrative agent, and certain financial institutions party thereto, as
1
lenders, and (ii) $5.0 billion in senior unsecured long-term debt issued or incurred in lieu of borrowings pursuant to, and termination of, a 364-day senior unsecured bridge loan facility;
•the redemption of the CrownRock 2025 notes, totaling approximately $868 million, and the obligor exchange of CrownRock’s unsecured senior notes due in 2029, totaling approximately $376 million;
•the issuance of approximately 29.6 million shares of Occidental’s common stock; and
•subject to entry into definitive agreements and consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, the acquisition of a thirty percent (30%) interest in CrownRock by Ecopetrol for $3.6 billion and the use of proceeds therefrom to pay down a portion of the term loans.
In the event a definitive agreement for the Ecopetrol Transaction is entered into, Occidental expects such transaction to be subject to the satisfaction or waiver of customary closing conditions, including, among other things, the expiration of the waiting period under the Hart-Scott-Rodino Antitrust Improvement Act of 1976, the receipt of approval from the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States and the closing of the acquisition, which may not be ultimately satisfied or waived. In the event (i) a definitive agreement for the Ecopetrol Transaction is not entered into and the Ecopetrol Option expires or (ii) the Ecopetrol Transaction does not close, the acquisition and the other transactions contemplated in connection therewith will still close, and Occidental will own a one hundred percent (100%) interest in CrownRock.
The pro forma financial statements do not include the realization of cost savings from operating efficiencies, revenue synergies or other integration costs expected to result from the acquisition.
The pro forma financial statements have been prepared using the acquisition method of accounting using the accounting guidance in Accounting Standards Codification 805, Business Combinations (“ASC 805”), with Occidental treated as the acquirer. The acquisition method of accounting is dependent upon certain valuations and other studies that, as of the date of these pro forma financial statements, have yet to commence or progress to a stage where there is sufficient information for a definitive measure. As indicated in the pro forma financial statements and under “—Estimated Purchase Price and Allocation” below, Occidental has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair value of CrownRock’s assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed and has made certain adjustments to the historical book values of the assets and liabilities of CrownRock to reflect preliminary estimates of the fair values necessary to prepare the pro forma financial statements. Occidental will perform a detailed review of CrownRock’s accounting policies in connection with the completion of the acquisition. Accordingly, the pro forma financial statements and pro forma adjustments are preliminary and have been made solely for the purpose of preparing the pro forma financial statements. Amounts used in these pro forma financial statements will differ from ultimate amounts once Occidental has closed the acquisition and has completed the valuation studies necessary to finalize the required purchase price allocation and identified any necessary conforming accounting policy changes for CrownRock. Differences between these preliminary estimates and the final acquisition accounting may have a material impact on the pro forma financial statements and the combined company’s future results of operations and financial position.
The pro forma financial statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and do not purport to represent what the actual consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position of Occidental would have been had the transactions occurred on the dates assumed, nor are they necessarily indicative of future consolidated results of operations or consolidated financial position.
The pro forma financial statements and related notes should be read in conjunction with the separate historical consolidated financial statements and related notes of Occidental included in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended March 31, 2024, and CrownRock included elsewhere as Exhibits 99.1 and 99.3 to the Current Report on Form 8-K which these pro forma financial statements are filed with as Exhibit 99.4.
Estimated Purchase Price and Allocation
The estimated aggregate value of the purchase price is approximately $11.3 billion based on the closing price of Occidental common stock of $63.15 on July 17, 2024, the last practicable trading date prior to the date of these pro forma financial statements. The value of the purchase price will fluctuate based upon changes in the share price of Occidental’s common stock until the date of closing.

Estimated Purchase Price
The following table summarizes the cash and common stock components of the estimated purchase price:
in millions, except per-share amounts | Total | ||||
Cash portion of estimated purchase price | $ | 9,100 | |||
Closing Adjustments | |||||
Net Working Capital and Other Purchase Price Adjustments | 285 | ||||
Pre-closing dividends declared by Occidental | $ | 7 | |||

Assumed share price of Occidental common stock | $ | 63.15 | |||
Stock portion of estimated purchase price | $ | 1,867 | |||
Total estimated purchase price | $ | 11,259 |
Occidental anticipates incurring approximately $9.7 billion aggregate principal amount of new indebtedness and using available cash to finance the cash purchase price of the acquisition, redeem the CrownRock 2025 notes and pay related fees and expenses.
Purchase Price Sensitivity
The table below illustrates the potential impact to the total estimated purchase price resulting from a ten percent (10%) increase or decrease in the assumed share price of Occidental's common stock of $63.15. For purposes of this calculation, the stock portion of the estimated purchase price is based on the number of shares of Occidental common stock to be issued as dictated by the purchase agreement.
in millions | 10% increase in Occidental share price | 10% decrease in Occidental share price | ||||||
Cash portion of estimated purchase price | $ | 9,392 | $ | 9,392 | ||||
Stock portion of estimated purchase price | 2,053 | 1,680 | ||||||
Total estimated purchase price | $ | 11,445 | $ | 11,072 |
From December 8, 2023, the last trading day before the public announcement of Occidental's proposal to acquire CrownRock, to July 17, 2024, the last practicable trading day prior to the date of these pro forma financial statements, the preliminary value of the purchase price to be transferred increased by approximately $197 million, as a result of the increase in the share price of Occidental's common stock from $56.47 to $63.15. Changes in the purchase price would result in a re-evaluation of the preliminary purchase price allocation, particularly the values determined for property, plant and equipment.
Preliminary Purchase Price Allocation
The preliminary allocation of the estimated purchase price to the fair values of assets acquired and liabilities assumed includes pro forma adjustments for the fair value of CrownRock's assets and liabilities. The final allocation will be determined as of the closing of the acquisition once Occidental has determined the final purchase price and completed the necessary detailed valuation analysis and calculations. The final allocation could differ materially from the preliminary allocation used in these pro forma financial statements and related pro forma adjustments.

Occidental has performed a preliminary valuation analysis of the fair market value of the CrownRock assets to be acquired and liabilities to be assumed and the related allocations to such items of the estimated purchase price.

1 Represents an estimate of acquisition-related transaction costs, including fees related to advisory, legal, investment banking and other professional services, all of which are directly attributable to the acquisition. These are non-recurring charges and have been excluded from the unaudited pro forma statements of operations.
b) Reflects the fair value adjustments to CrownRock’s assets and liabilities, including property, plant, and equipment and debt. See "Estimated Purchase Price and Allocation" above.
c) Represents pro forma adjustments to current and long-term debt, which includes the incurrence of $9.7 billion aggregate principal amount of new indebtedness, with an estimated weighted average annual interest rate of 6.25%, yielding net proceeds of $2.0 billion and $7.6 billion in current and long-term debt, respectively. Anticipated proceeds are net of $54 million in debt issuance costs. If the sale of an undivided thirty percent (30%) interest in the CrownRock assets to Ecopetrol is consummated, Occidental anticipates using the proceeds to repay $3.6 billion aggregate principal amount of its term loans. After giving effect to such repayment, the estimated weighted average annual interest rate of the remaining $6.1 billion in new indebtedness is 5.81%. Estimated interest rates are based on underlying U.S. Treasury rates adjusted for Occidental's anticipated credit spreads across a range of maturities.

results in a decrease in CrownRock’s interest expense of $12 million and $49 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and the year ended December 31, 2023, respectively.
Prior to completion of the Ecopetrol Transaction, 1/8 of a percent change in the assumed interest rate of the $9.7 billion aggregate principal amount of new indebtedness would increase or decrease the interest expense by $3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $12 million for the year ended December 31, 2023. If the Ecopetrol Transaction is consummated, a 1/8 of a percent change in the assumed interest rate of the remaining $6.1 billion aggregate principal amount of new indebtedness would increase or decrease the interest expense by $2 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $8 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
d) Reflects adjustments to historical depreciation, depletion and amortization ("DD&A") expense related to the step up of property, plant and equipment to estimated fair value. Pro forma DD&A expense related to the assets acquired through the acquisition is $51 million for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and $182 million for the year ended December 31, 2023.
e) Reflects the income tax effects of the pro forma adjustments included in the pro forma statements of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and for the year ended December 31, 2023, including an adjustment for income taxes for historical CrownRock that would have been recorded as a result of the acquisition. The effective tax rate of the combined company could be significantly different from what is presented in these pro forma financial statements for a variety of reasons, including post-merger activities.
f) Reflects adjustments to eliminate CrownRock’s historical revenue and expense related to certain subsidiaries retained by CrownQuest Operating, LLC (“CrownQuest”), the parent company of CrownRock, per the purchase agreement. Revenue and expenses related to such subsidiaries totaled $26 million and $10 million, respectively, for the year ended December 31, 2023. These subsidiaries were distributed to CrownQuest as of January 31, 2024. Revenue and expenses related to these subsidiaries for the month of January are immaterial.

Standardized measure of discounted future net cash flows
The following tables present the estimated pro forma discounted future net cash flows at December 31, 2023. The pro forma standardized measure information set forth below gives effect to the transactions as if the transactions had been completed on January 1, 2023. The disclosures below were determined by referencing the "Standardized Measure of Discounted Future Net Cash Flows" reported in Occidental's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and in the consolidated financial statements and related notes of CrownRock for the year ended December 31, 2023. An explanation of the underlying methodology applied, as required by U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission regulations, can be found within Occidental’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 and CrownRock’s consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended December 31, 2023. The calculations assume the continuation of existing economic, operating and contractual conditions at December 31, 2023.
Therefore, the following estimated pro forma standardized measure is not necessarily indicative of the results that might have occurred had the transactions been completed on January 1, 2023 and is not intended to be a projection of future results. Future results may vary significantly from the results reflected because of various factors, including those discussed in the section entitled "Risk Factors" in Occidental’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023.
The pro forma adjustments below reflect the acquisition of an undivided thirty percent (30%) interest in the CrownRock assets by Ecopetrol in connection with the Ecopetrol Transaction.
