Chevron Corp. reported net income of $3.7 billion ($1.76 per share – diluted) for the second quarter 2005, compared with $4.1 billion ($1.94 per share – diluted) in the year-ago period. The amount in 2004 included a special-item gain of $0.6 billion ($0.28 per share) from asset sales and a benefit of $0.2 billion ($0.12 per share) from a tax-law change for certain international operations.
For the first six months of 2005, net income was $6.4 billion ($3.04 per share – diluted), vs. $6.7 billion ($3.14 per share – diluted) in the 2004 first half, which included $0.8 billion ($0.37 per share) of benefits for the effect of special items and the tax-law change.
Sales and other operating revenues in the second quarter 2005 were $47 billion, up $11 billion from the 2004 period. Six-month sales and other operating revenues were $88 billion, up $18 billion. The increase in both periods was mainly attributable to higher prices for crude oil, natural gas and refined products.
