Deep Analysis

OXY’s 5.9x sits well below the sector median of 13.6x, placing it in the 15th percentile among peers. The metric has been decreasing over the last eight quarters, with a year-over-year change of -18.9% and a quarter-over-quarter change of +2.8%. A low multiple can signal undervaluation, but the downward trend suggests the market has been steadily reducing its earnings expectations for OXY. That mix of cheap level and falling trend points to a value opportunity only if cash flows stabilize, while the recent small QoQ uptick hints at a possible floor. This supports the overall NEUTRAL verdict: the low EV/EBITDA offers potential upside, yet the persistent decline justifies caution rather than a bullish stance.
