What this business is made of

The business

Chevron is a discipline refinery: it pumps cheap barrels and weathers storms.

Integrated supermajor: extracts crude and gas, refines them and sells them. Permian and Kazakhstan are the heart of upstream; downstream and chemicals smooth out the cycle.

Scale, low-extraction-cost reserves and a balance sheet that holds up with crude at $50. It's not a structural moat, it's capital discipline built up over decades. Replicating it takes time, not money.

From $94.5B to $202.8B in 4 years — nearly 2.1x its size. Selling more and more is the base of everything else.

Catalysts and risks

Hess closing: access to Stabroek (Guyana), one of the cheapest barrels in the world.

38 years of raising the dividend; payout sustainable with Brent above $60.

Permian production targeting 1 MMboe/d by 2025.

⚠️

Crude price: FCF moves with Brent, not with Excel.

⚠️

Arbitration with ExxonMobil over 30% of Stabroek could break the Hess thesis.

⚠️

Energy transition compresses terminal multiples even if cash flow holds.

Charlie's note

Decent business at a decent price. The signal says wait and so do I: oil is bought when nobody wants it, and right now too many people want it.

We do not calculate a value here: Chevron does not generate cash flows you can project, and putting a number on it would be making it up. What you can do is follow it and tell us the price you care about — we will email you when it gets there.
