    ConocoPhillips and Chevron gain on projected triple-digit Q3 net income growth

    Question

    ConocoPhillips and Chevron gain on projected triple-digit Q3 net income growth

    Direct answer

    Integrated energy majors demonstrated clear relative strength as equity benchmarks traded flat to lower. ConocoPhillips advanced 2.43% to $140.90, while Chevron added 1.39% to reach $217.99. Sell-side consensus points to substantial bottom-line inflection for Q3. Chevron is forecast to deliver $4.73 in EPS on October 30, representing a 155.68% year-over-year increase, alongside $58.88 billion in revenue. ConocoPhillips expectations sit at $2.69 per share, up 67.08% YoY. The upstream earnings trajectory highlights resilient cash-flow generation across deep-water and unconventional assets, keeping sector multiples near cycle lows relative to broader capitalization. — bullish pressure on CVX.
