Occidental Petroleum files prospectus supplement for shares tied to warrant exercise

Occidental Petroleum Corporation (NYSE:OXY) filed a prospectus supplement Monday related to the issuance of common stock upon the exercise of its outstanding publicly traded warrants. The filing, made under the company’s existing shelf registration statement, covers shares of Occidental’s common stock with a par value of $0.20 per share that may be issued when holders exercise these warrants.

The company stated that the warrants were originally issued on August 3, 2020. As of July 21, 2025, there were 31,990,880 warrants outstanding. Each warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Occidental common stock.

The prospectus supplement and related legal opinion were filed as part of the company’s ongoing disclosure requirements. The legal opinion regarding the validity of the common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants was provided by Cravath, Swaine & Moore LLP.

Occidental Petroleum’s common stock and warrants are both listed on the New York Stock Exchange under the symbols OXY and OXY WS, respectively.

This information is based on a statement from the company’s press release included in its SEC Form 8-K filing.
