Net income rose 55% to $275.3 million, and diluted earnings per share (EPS) were $0.92, beating the estimated $0.81. Adjusted EBITDA increased 50% to $328.8 million. The company’s membership surged past 2 million, contributing to operational efficiency despite a slight rise in the medical loss ratio to 75.4%. Oscar Health reaffirmed its 2025 revenue guidance of $11.2 billion to $11.3 billion and operating earnings guidance of $225 million to $275 million. CEO Mark Bertolini highlighted continued top-line growth and bottom-line performance. In the energy sector, Occidental Petroleum Corp. reported adjusted EPS of $0.87, beating estimates of $0.73, with total revenue of $6.80 billion slightly below expectations. The company generated $3 billion in operating cash flow before working capital and $1.2 billion in free cash flow, producing an average of 1.39 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (BOE/D) in Q1 2025. Occidental reduced its 2025 capital expenditure guidance midpoint by $200 million amid strong operational performance and natural gas prices. ConocoPhillips posted adjusted EPS of $2.09 and revenue of $17.1 billion, both exceeding estimates. The company reported record drilling performance in the Eagle Ford basin and returned $2.5 billion to shareholders. However, it cut its 2025 capital expenditure guidance by 3.5% to a midpoint of $12.45 billion due to lower oil prices, while maintaining its production outlook. CEO Ryan Lance warned that sustained crude prices in the low $50s could prompt widespread activity reductions across the oil industry. Canadian oil producer Cenovus Energy announced layoffs ahead of its Q1 earnings report amid weak oil prices below $60 per barrel. Despite the job cuts, Cenovus surprised the market with a profit beat, leading to a stock price increase. Other Canadian producers like Suncor and Colombia’s Ecopetrol are also planning cost cuts in response to the challenging market environment.
