CVX Earnings: Chevron Q2 2022 profit beats estimates; revenue up 83%

Chevron Corporation (NYSE: CVX) reported a sharp increase in second-quarter profit as the energy giant’s revenues soared 83%. Both earnings and the top line exceeded the consensus estimates.

Total revenues and other income rose sharply to $68.8 billion in the June quarter and came in above analysts’ forecast. Revenues benefited from a record growth in crude oil prices.

Reflecting the positive top-line performance, second-quarter adjusted profit moved up to $5.82 per share from $1.71 per share in the same period of 2021. Unadjusted profit rose to $11.6 billion or $5.95 per share from $3.08 billion or $1.60 per share last year. Earnings also beat the estimates.
