General The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by Occidental Petroleum Corporation (Occidental) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and disclosures normally included in notes to consolidated financial statements have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations, but resultant disclosures are in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles as they apply to interim reporting. The consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto in Occidental's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1999 (1999 Form 10-K). In the opinion of Occidental's management, the accompanying consolidated condensed financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary to present fairly Occidental's consolidated financial position as of June 30, 2000 and the consolidated results of operations for the three and six months then ended and the consolidated cash flows for the six months then ended. The results of operations and cash flows for the periods ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations or cash flows to be expected for the full year. Certain financial statements and notes for the prior year have been changed to conform to the 2000 presentation. Reference is made to Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements in the 1999 Form 10-K for a summary of significant accounting policies. 2. Comprehensive Income The following table presents Occidental's comprehensive income items (in millions):
Periods Ended June 30 ----------------------------------------------------- Three Months Six Months ------------------------- ------------------------- 2000 1999 2000 1999 ================================================== =========== ============ =========== ============ Net income (loss) $ 564 $ 9 $ 835 $ (61) Other comprehensive income items Foreign currency translation adjustments 6 (20) 10 (28) Other (1) 1 (1) 1 ----------- ------------ ----------- ------------ Other comprehensive income, net of tax 5 (19) 9 (27) ----------- ------------ ----------- ------------ Comprehensive income (loss) $ 569 $ (10) $ 844 $ (88) =========== ============ =========== ============
6 3. Asset Acquisitions and Dispositions Reference is made to Note 3 to the consolidated financial statements in the 1999 Form 10-K for a description of asset acquisitions and dispositions. In June 2000, Occidental announced that it had signed a letter of intent with Olin Corporation to combine the companies' chlor-alkali and related businesses for contribution to a newly-formed partnership. Occidental, through its subsidiaries, will own approximately 66 percent of the partnership. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals, is expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2000. On May 8, 2000, Occidental completed an agreement to sell its producing properties in Peru to Pluspetrol. In connection with this transaction, Occidental recorded an after-tax charge of approximately $29 million in December 1999 to write-down the properties to their fair values. On April 24, 2000, Occidental completed the acquisition of ARCO Long Beach Inc. (THUMS), an oil producing property, for approximately $67 million. On April 19, 2000, Occidental completed its acquisition of all of the common interest in Altura Energy Ltd. (now "Occidental Permian Ltd.") (Altura), the largest oil producer in Texas. Occidental, through its subsidiaries, paid approximately $1.2 billion to the sellers, affiliates of BP Amoco plc and Shell Oil Company, to acquire the common limited partnership interest and control of the general partner which manages, operates and controls 100 percent of the Altura assets. The partnership borrowed approximately $2.4 billion, which has recourse only to the Altura assets. The partnership also loaned approximately $2.0 billion to affiliates of the sellers, evidenced by two notes, which provide credit support to the partnership. The sellers retained a preferred limited partnership interest of approximately $2.0 billion and are entitled to certain distributions from the partnership. The acquisition is valued at approximately $3.6 billion. Occidental's results of operations include the operations of the Altura assets from the date of acquisition. Pro forma net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, including historical Altura results as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2000, would have been $573 million ($1.55 earnings per share) and $915 million ($2.48 earnings per share), respectively. Pro forma net income for the three and six months ended June 30, 1999, including historical Altura results as if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 1999, would have been income of $7 million ($.02 earnings per share) and a loss of $93 million ($.27 loss per share), respectively. Pro forma revenues would have been $6.7 billion and $3.4 billion for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively, and $3.8 billion and $1.9 billion for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The pro forma calculations were made with historical operating results from Altura prior to ownership by Occidental and give effect to certain adjustments including increased depreciation, depletion and amortization to reflect the value assigned to the Altura property, plant and equipment, increased interest expense, and income tax effects. The pro forma results are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had been made at the beginning of the periods presented or that may be obtained in the future. Also, the pro forma calculations do not reflect anticipated cost savings, synergies, changes in realized prices or production rates and certain other adjustments that are expected to result from the acquisition and operation of Altura. On April 18, 2000, Occidental completed the sale of its 29.2 percent stake in Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd. (CanOxy) for gross proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion Canadian, following approval of the sale by CanOxy stockholders. Of Occidental's 40.2 million shares of CanOxy, 20.2 million were sold to the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan Board and 20 million to CanOxy. These sales resulted in a net pre-tax gain of approximately $493 million. In addition, Occidental and CanOxy exchanged their respective 15 percent interests in joint businesses of approximately equal value, resulting in Occidental owning 100 percent of an oil and gas operation in Ecuador and CanOxy owning 100 percent of sodium chlorate operations in Canada and Louisiana. 7 4. Supplemental Cash Flow Information Cash payments during the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999 included federal, foreign and state income taxes of approximately $343 million and $51 million, respectively. Interest paid (net of interest capitalized) totaled approximately $241 million and $219 million for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. 5. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash equivalents consist of highly liquid money-market mutual funds and bank deposits with maturities of three months or less when purchased. Cash equivalents totaled $43 million and $162 million at June 30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, respectively. 6. Inventories A portion of inventories is valued under the LIFO method. The valuation of LIFO inventory for interim periods is based on management's estimates of year-end inventory levels and costs. Inventories consist of the following (in millions):
Balance at June 30, 2000 December 31, 1999 ======================== ===================== ===================== Raw materials $ 61 $ 60 Materials and supplies 137 167 Work in process 3 7 Finished goods 314 294 --------- --------- 515 528 LIFO adjustment (5) (25) --------- --------- Total $ 510 $ 503 ========= =========
7. Property, Plant and Equipment Reference is made to the consolidated balance sheets and Note 1 thereto in the 1999 Form 10-K for a description of investments in property, plant and equipment. 8. Trust Preferred Securities Reference is made to Note 12 to the consolidated financial statements in the 1999 Form 10-K for a description of the Trust Preferred Securities. The Trust Preferred Securities balances reflected in the consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2000, and December 31, 1999, are net of issue costs and also reflect amortization of a portion of the issue costs, and the repurchase during 2000 and 1999 of 433,560 shares and 937,436 shares with liquidation values of $10.8 million and $23.4 million, respectively. 9. Retirement Plans and Postretirement Benefits Reference is made to Note 14 to the consolidated financial statements in the 1999 Form 10-K for a description of the retirement plans and postretirement benefits of Occidental and its subsidiaries. 8 10. Lawsuits, Claims, Commitments, Contingencies and Related Matters Occidental and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants or as potentially responsible parties in a substantial number of lawsuits, claims and proceedings, including governmental proceedings under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) and corresponding state acts. These governmental proceedings seek funding, remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages and civil penalties, aggregating substantial amounts. Occidental is usually one of many companies in these proceedings, and has to date been successful in sharing response costs with other financially sound companies. Occidental has accrued reserves at the most likely cost to be incurred in those proceedings where it is probable that Occidental will incur remediation costs which can be reasonably estimated. In December 1998, David Croucher and others filed a purported class action suit in the Federal District Court in Houston, Texas on behalf of persons claiming to have been beneficiaries of the MidCon Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP). The plaintiffs allege that each of the U.S. Trust Company of California (the ESOP Trustee) and the MidCon ESOP Administrative Committee breached its fiduciary duty to the plaintiffs by failing to properly value the securities held by the ESOP, and allege that Occidental actively participated in such conduct. The plaintiffs claim that, as a result of this alleged breach, the ESOP participants are entitled to an additional aggregate distribution of at least $200 million and that Occidental has been unjustly enriched and is liable for failing to make that distribution. During the course of its operations, Occidental is subject to audit by taxing authorities for varying periods in various tax jurisdictions. Occidental has certain other commitments under contracts, guarantees and joint ventures, and certain other contingent liabilities. It is impossible at this time to determine the ultimate liabilities that Occidental and its subsidiaries may incur resulting from the foregoing lawsuits, claims and proceedings, audits, commitments, contingencies and related matters. Several of these matters may involve substantial amounts, and if these were to be ultimately resolved unfavorably to the full amount of their maximum potential exposure, an event not currently anticipated, it is possible that such event could have a material adverse effect upon Occidental's consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, in management's opinion, after taking into account reserves, it is unlikely that any of the foregoing matters will have a material adverse effect upon Occidental's consolidated financial position or results of operations. Reference is made to Note 9 to the consolidated financial statements in the 1999 Form 10-K for information concerning Occidental's long-term purchase obligations for certain products and services. 11. Income Taxes The provision for taxes based on income for the 2000 and 1999 interim periods was computed in accordance with Interpretation No. 18 of APB Opinion No. 28 on reporting taxes for interim periods and was based on projections of total year pre-tax income. At December 31, 1999, Occidental had, for U.S. federal income tax return purposes, an alternative minimum tax credit carryforward of $60 million available to reduce future income taxes. The alternative minimum tax credit carryforward does not expire. 12. Investments Investments in entities, other than oil and gas exploration and production companies, in which Occidental has a voting stock interest of at least 20 percent, but not more than 50 percent, and certain partnerships are 9 accounted for on the equity method. At June 30, 2000, Occidental's equity investments consisted primarily of a 29.5 percent interest in Equistar acquired in May 1998 and interests in various chemical partnerships and joint ventures. The following table presents Occidental's proportionate interest in the summarized financial information of its equity method investments (in millions):

(a) Includes unallocated net interest expense, administration expense and other items. (b) Includes unallocated income taxes. (c) Includes pre-tax charge of $120 million related to the decision to exit several chemical intermediate businesses. (d) Includes pre-tax gain of approximately $493 million related to the sale of the CanOxy investment. (e) Includes income taxes of approximately $193 million related to the sale of the CanOxy investment. 14. Subsequent Event On July 20, 2000, Occidental announced that it had entered into agreements with respect to two transactions with Apache Corporation ("Apache") involving Occidental's interests in the Continental Shelf of the Gulf of Mexico ("GOM"). In one transaction, Occidental agreed to sell its share of future gas production from these GOM interests for approximately $280 million. In the second transaction, Occidental agreed to sell an interest in the subsidiary that holds the GOM assets for approximately $61 million, with an option for Apache to purchase additional interests for $44 million over the next four years. As a result of these transactions, which are expected to close in August 2000, and the consequent elimination of a portion of Occidental's responsibility for abandonment liabilities, Occidental expects to record a pre-tax gain of approximately $65 million in the third quarter of 2000. 10 ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Occidental reported net income for the first six months of 2000 of $835 million, on net sales of $5.6 billion, compared with a net loss of $61 million, on net sales of $3.0 billion, for the same period of 1999. Occidental's net income for the second quarter of 2000 was $564 million, on net sales of $3.1 billion, compared with net income of $9 million, on net sales of $1.6 billion, for the same period of 1999. Basic earnings per common share were $2.27 for the first six months of 2000, compared with a loss of $.20 per share for the same period of 1999. Basic earnings per common share were $1.53 for the second quarter of 2000, compared with earnings per share of $.02 for the same period of 1999. The 2000 results included an after-tax gain of approximately $300 million related to the sale of Occidental's 29.2 percent interest in Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd. (CanOxy), an after-tax charge of approximately $80 million for the decision to exit several of Occidental's chemical intermediate businesses and a pre-tax insurance dividend of $11 million. Earnings before special items were $343 million and $607 million for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, respectively, compared with earnings of $4 million and a loss of $64 million for the same periods in 1999, respectively. The increase in earnings before special items for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same period in 1999, reflected the impact of higher worldwide crude oil, natural gas and chemical prices, higher production volumes and lower costs. The increase in earnings before special items for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same period in 1999, reflected higher worldwide oil, natural gas and chemical prices and lower costs. The 1999 second quarter earnings included an after-tax extraordinary loss of $3 million related to the early extinguishment of debt and a second quarter gain of $12 million related to the sale of a chemical plant by an equity affiliate. The 1999 results also included a pre-tax insurance dividend of $18 million in the first quarter and an after-tax charge of $13 million, reflecting the cumulative effect of adopting accounting principles changes mandated by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants and the Emerging Issues Task Force of the Financial Accounting Standards Board. The increase in net sales for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same periods in 1999, primarily reflected higher crude oil, natural gas and chemical prices, higher oil and gas trading revenues and higher domestic oil production as a result of acquisitions, partially offset by lower international production. Interest, dividends and other income for 2000 included interest income of $30 million on notes receivable from Altura partners. Gains on disposition of assets for 2000 included a pre-tax gain of $493 million on the sale of the investment in CanOxy. Selling, general and administrative and other operating expenses for 2000 included a pre-tax charge of $120 million to exit several chemical intermediate businesses. Minority interest includes distributions on the Trust Preferred Securities and the minority interest in the net income of subsidiaries and partnerships and, for 2000, also included a $30 million preferred distribution to the Altura partners. The provision for income taxes increased for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same periods in 1999, primarily due to higher earnings and asset sales. 11 The following table sets forth the sales and earnings of each operating division and corporate items (in millions):

(a) Earnings before special items reflect adjustments to net income (loss) to exclude the after-tax effect of certain infrequent transactions that may affect comparability between periods. These transactions are discussed in this Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and are shown in the table below. Management believes the presentation of earnings before special items provides a meaningful comparison of earnings between periods to the readers of the consolidated financial statements. Earnings before special items is not considered to be an alternative to operating income in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The following table sets forth the special items for each operating division and corporate (if applicable):

* These amounts are shown after-tax. 12 Oil and gas earnings for the first six months of 2000 were $951 million, compared with $231 million for the same period of 1999. Oil and gas earnings for the second quarter of 2000 were $557 million, compared with $166 million for the same period of 1999. The increase in earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same period in 1999, reflected the impact of higher worldwide crude oil and natural gas prices, higher production volumes and lower costs. The increase in earnings for the six months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same period in 1999, reflected the impact of higher worldwide crude oil and natural gas prices and lower costs. The increase in revenues for the three and six months ended June 30, 2000, compared with the same periods in 1999, reflected the impact of higher worldwide crude oil and natural gas prices and higher oil and gas trading activity. Approximately 44 percent and 38 percent of oil and gas net sales were attributable to oil and gas trading activities in the first six months of 2000 and 1999, respectively. The results of oil and gas trading activity were not significant. Oil and gas prices are sensitive to complex factors, which are outside the control of Occidental, therefore, we are unable to predict with certainty the direction, magnitude or impact of future trends in sales prices of oil and gas. Occidental will continue to implement its strategy of focusing on competitive core assets with economies of scale to further reduce both operating and overhead costs. The strong mix of long-lived oil and gas assets that we have acquired through acquisitions and asset swaps should continue to shape Occidental's performance in the future. Chemical earnings for the first six months of 2000 were $177 million, compared with $45 million for the same period of 1999. Chemical earnings before special items were $297 million for the first six months of 2000, compared with $33 million for the first six months of 1999. Chemical earnings for the second quarter of 2000 were $34 million, compared with $33 million for the same period of 1999. Chemical earnings before special items were $154 million for the second quarter of 2000, compared with $21 million for the second quarter of 1999. The 2000 results include a $120 million pre-tax charge resulting from the decision to exit several chemical intermediate businesses. The 1999 results included a second quarter gain of $12 million related to the sale of a chemical plant by an equity affiliate. The increase in 2000 earnings before special items is due to higher prices and sales volumes for polyvinyl chloride resins (PVC), ethylene dichloride, vinyl chloride monomer and chlorine. Partially offsetting these increases were higher raw material and feedstock costs. Occidental will continue to implement its strategy of focusing on competitive core assets and developing economies of scale and cost reductions through strategic alliances. Occidental's strong chemical asset mix should continue to result in improved efficiencies and reductions in overhead costs despite the higher raw material costs that were absorbed in 2000. Occidental expects a moderate decrease in demand for PVC during the second half of 2000 which in turn will temper demand for chlorine and result in a tightening in the caustic soda markets. Divisional earnings include credits in lieu of U.S. federal income taxes. In the first six months of 2000 and 1999, divisional earnings benefited by $11 million and $41 million, respectively, from credits allocated. This included credits of $3 million and $8 million at oil and gas and chemical, respectively, in the first six months of 2000 and credits of $33 million and $8 million at oil and gas and chemical, respectively, for the first six months of 1999. The higher 1999 amounts related to the transactions with Unocal which is discussed below under Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources. Occidental and certain of its subsidiaries have been named as defendants or as potentially responsible parties in a substantial number of lawsuits, claims and proceedings, including governmental proceedings under the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act (CERCLA) and corresponding state acts. These governmental proceedings seek funding, remediation and, in some cases, compensation for alleged property damage, punitive damages and civil penalties, aggregating substantial amounts. Occidental is usually one of many companies in these proceedings, and has to date been successful in sharing response costs with other financially sound companies. Occidental has accrued reserves at the most likely cost to be incurred in those proceedings where it is probable that Occidental will incur remediation costs which can be reasonably estimated. During the course of its operations, Occidental is subject to audit by taxing authorities for varying periods in various tax jurisdictions. Occidental has certain other commitments under contracts, guarantees and joint ventures, and certain other contingent liabilities. It is impossible at this time to determine the ultimate liabilities that Occidental and its subsidiaries may incur resulting from the foregoing lawsuits, claims and proceedings, audits, commitments, contingencies and related matters. Several of these matters may involve substantial amounts, and if these were to be ultimately resolved 13 unfavorably to the full amount of their maximum potential exposure, an event not currently anticipated, it is possible that such event could have a material adverse effect upon Occidental's consolidated financial position or results of operations. However, in management's opinion, after taking into account reserves, it is unlikely that any of the foregoing matters will have a material adverse effect upon Occidental's consolidated financial position or results of operations. FINANCIAL CONDITION, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES Occidental's net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations was $922 million for the first six months of 2000, compared with net cash provided of $192 million for the same period of 1999. The 2000 amount is primarily attributed to higher net income before special items. Occidental's net cash used by investing activities was $3.1 billion for the first six months of 2000, compared with net cash provided of $1.1 billion for the same period of 1999. The 2000 amount primarily reflected the $3.6 billion cost of the Altura acquisition partially offset by pre-tax asset sale proceeds mainly from the sale of Occidental's 29.2 percent interest in CanOxy for approximately $800 million. The 1999 amount included the proceeds from the $1.4 billion note receivable received in connection with the sale of MidCon, Occidental's natural gas pipeline subsidiary. The 1999 amount also reflected net cash used of $113 million in connection with the formation of a PVC resin partnership. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 2000 were $333 million, including $287 million in oil and gas and $44 million in chemical. Capital expenditures for the first six months of 1999 were $263 million, including $205 million in oil and gas and $55 million in chemical. Financing activities provided net cash of $2.1 billion in the first six months of 2000, compared with cash used of $1.1 billion for the same period of 1999. The 2000 amount mainly reflects proceeds of $2.4 billion from non-recourse debt and cash dividends paid of $184 million. The 1999 amount reflected the use of the proceeds from the $1.4 billion note receivable to repay outstanding debt and also reflected the payment of dividends of $181 million. On July 20, 2000, Occidental announced that it had entered into agreements with respect to two transactions with Apache Corporation ("Apache") involving its interests in the Continental Shelf of the Gulf of Mexico ("GOM"). In one transaction, Occidental agreed to sell its share of gas production from these GOM interests for approximately $280 million. In the second transaction, Occidental agreed to sell an interest in the subsidiary that holds the GOM assets for approximately $61 million, with an option for Apache to purchase additional interests for $44 million over the next four years. As a result of these transactions, which are expected to close in August 2000, and the consequent elimination of a portion of Occidental's responsibility for abandonment liabilities, Occidental expects to record a pre-tax gain of approximately $65 million in the third quarter of 2000. In June 2000, Occidental announced that it had signed a letter of intent with Olin Corporation to combine the companies' chlor-alkali and related businesses for contribution to a newly-formed partnership. Occidental, through its subsidiaries, will own approximately 66 percent of the partnership. The transaction, which is subject to regulatory approvals, is expected to close by the fourth quarter of 2000. The partnership is expected to have annual sales of approximately $1.2 billion and to achieve annual cost savings of $60 million from operating efficiencies and consolidation of administrative functions. On May 8, 2000, Occidental completed an agreement to sell its producing properties in Peru to Pluspetrol. In connection with this transaction, Occidental recorded an after-tax charge of approximately $29 million in December 1999 to write-down the properties to their fair values. On April 24, 2000, Occidental completed the acquisition of ARCO Long Beach Inc. (THUMS), an oil producing property, for approximately $67 million. The acquisition adds approximately 95 million barrels of net oil reserves and approximately 25,000 barrels per day of net oil production to Occidental's growing California operations. On April 19, 2000, Occidental completed its acquisition of all of the common interest in Altura Energy Ltd. (now "Occidental Permian Ltd.") (Altura), the largest oil producer in Texas. Occidental, through its subsidiaries, paid approximately $1.2 billion to the sellers, affiliates of BP Amoco plc and Shell Oil Company, to acquire the common limited partnership interest and control of the general partner which manages, operates and controls 100 percent of 14 the Altura assets. The partnership borrowed approximately $2.4 billion, which has recourse only to the Altura assets. The partnership also loaned approximately $2.0 billion to affiliates of the sellers, evidenced by two notes, which provide credit support to the partnership. The sellers retained a preferred limited partnership interest of approximately $2.0 billion and are entitled to certain distributions from the partnership. As a result of the acquisition, which is valued at approximately $3.6 billion, Occidental's worldwide oil and gas production is expected to increase by approximately 135,000 barrels per day of oil equivalent and Occidental's worldwide production is expected to increase by 12 percent to an average of approximately 475,000 barrels of oil equivalent per day this year versus 425,000 barrels per day in 1999. Proved reserves at Altura were 850 million barrels of oil equivalent at December 31, 1999. This acquisition will bring Occidental's proved reserves to approximately 2.2 billion barrels of oil equivalent. On April 18, 2000, Occidental completed the sale of its 29.2 percent stake in Canadian Occidental Petroleum Ltd. (CanOxy) for gross proceeds of approximately $1.2 billion Canadian, following approval of the sale by CanOxy stockholders. Of Occidental's 40.2 million shares of CanOxy, 20.2 million were sold to the Ontario Teachers Pension Plan Board and 20 million to CanOxy. In addition, Occidental and CanOxy exchanged their respective 15 percent interests in joint businesses of approximately equal value, resulting in Occidental owning 100 percent of an oil and gas operation in Ecuador and CanOxy owning 100 percent of sodium chlorate operations in Canada and Louisiana. After-tax proceeds from the CanOxy disposition together with tax benefits from the disposition of the Peru producing properties totaled approximately $700 million and were applied to the acquisition of the Altura and THUMS acquisition. In December 1999, Occidental and EOG Resources, Inc. (EOG) exchanged certain oil and gas assets. Occidental received producing properties and exploration acreage in its expanding California asset base, as well as producing properties in the western Gulf of Mexico near existing operations in exchange for oil and gas production and reserves in east Texas. Occidental also farmed out Oklahoma panhandle properties to EOG and retained a carried interest. In the third quarter of 1999, pursuant to a series of transactions, Occidental indirectly acquired the remaining ownership of INDSPEC Chemical Corporation (INDSPEC) through the issuance of approximately 3.2 million shares of Occidental common stock at an estimated value of approximately $68 million and the assumption of approximately $80 million of bank debt. As a result of the transactions, Occidental owns 100 percent of the stock of INDSPEC. In the third quarter of 1999, Occidental acquired Unocal International Corporation's (UNOCAL) oil and gas interests in Yemen and UNOCAL acquired Occidental's properties in Bangladesh. Effective April 30, 1999, Occidental and The Geon Company (Geon) formed two partnerships. Occidental has a 76 percent interest in the PVC commodity resin partnership, OxyVinyls, LP (OxyVinyls), which is the larger of the partnerships, and a 10 percent interest in a PVC powder compounding partnership. OxyVinyls also has entered into long-term agreements to supply PVC resin to Geon and VCM to Occidental and Geon. In addition, as part of the transaction, Occidental sold its pellet compounding plant in Pasadena, Texas and its vinyl film assets in Burlington, New Jersey to Geon. On June 1, 2000, Occidental redeemed all of its outstanding 11-1/8 percent senior debentures due June 1, 2019, at a redemption price of 100 percent of the principal amount thereof. The outstanding aggregate principal amount of the debentures, which were issued on May 15, 1989, was $75 million. On June 30, 1999, Occidental established a program under which Occidental may offer, from time to time, up to $1 billion aggregate initial offering price of its Medium-Term Senior Notes, Series C and its Medium-Term Subordinated Notes, Series A. On June 1, 1999, Occidental called for redemption $68.7 million of its 11-1/8 percent senior debentures due June 1, 2019, at a redemption price of 105.563 percent of the principal amount thereof. Occidental recorded an after-tax extraordinary loss of $3 million in the second quarter of 1999 related to the redemption. 15 In February 1999, Occidental issued $450 million of 7.65 percent senior notes due 2006 and $350 million of 8.45 percent senior notes due 2029 for net proceeds of approximately $792 million. In January 1999, a subsidiary of Occidental issued $525 million of 8.16 percent Trust Preferred Securities due in 2039, for net proceeds of $508 million. The net proceeds were used to repay commercial paper. The Trust Preferred Securities balances reflected in the consolidated financial statements at June 30, 2000 and December 31, 1999 are net of issue costs and also reflect amortization of a portion of the issue costs, and the repurchase during 2000 and 1999 of 433,560 shares and 937,436 shares, respectively, with liquidation values of $10.8 million and $23.4 million, respectively. Occidental expects to have sufficient cash in 2000 for its operating needs, capital expenditure requirements, dividend payments and debt repayments. Occidental currently expects to spend, in total, approximately $1.0 billion on its 2000 capital spending program, of which approximately $800 million has been allocated to the oil and gas division and approximately $200 million has been allocated to the chemical division. Available but unused lines of committed bank credit totaled approximately $1.8 billion at June 30, 2000, compared with $2.1 billion at December 31, 1999. Occidental has a projected target of reducing total debt by $2.0 billion by the end of 2000. In April, total debt, which includes the Trust Preferred Securities and the obligation under natural gas delivery commitment but excludes non-recourse debt, was $6.6 billion, mainly resulting from $1.2 billion of short-term borrowings to finance the cash cost of the Altura acquisition. Since April, Occidental has reduced total debt by approximately $1.2 billion, with $700 million generated from asset sales and $500 million from internal cash flow. Additionally, Occidental reduced non-recourse debt related to Altura by $125 million. Occidental plans to meet this debt reduction target through internal cash flow and further asset sales in the second half of the year. ENVIRONMENTAL MATTERS Occidental's operations in the United States are subject to stringent federal, state and local laws and regulations relating to improving or maintaining the quality of the environment. Foreign operations also are subject to varied environmental protection laws. Costs associated with environmental compliance have increased over time and may continue to rise in the future. The laws which require or address environmental remediation may apply retroactively to previous waste disposal practices. And, in many cases, the laws apply regardless of fault, legality of the original activities or ownership or control of sites. Occidental is currently participating in environmental assessments and cleanups under these laws at federal Superfund sites, comparable state sites and other remediation sites, including Occidental facilities and previously owned sites. Occidental does not consider the number of Superfund and comparable state sites at which it has been notified that it has been identified as being involved to be a relevant measure of exposure. Although the liability of a potentially responsible party (PRP), and in many cases its equivalent under state law, may be joint and several, Occidental is usually one of many companies cited as a PRP at these sites and has, to date, been successful in sharing cleanup costs with other financially sound companies. As of June 30, 2000, Occidental had been notified by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) or equivalent state agencies or otherwise had become aware that it had been identified as being involved at 126 Superfund or comparable state sites. (This number does not include those sites where Occidental has been successful in resolving its involvement.) The 126 sites include 34 former Diamond Shamrock Chemical sites as to which Maxus Energy Corporation has retained all liability. Of the remaining 92 sites, Occidental has denied involvement at 10 sites and has yet to determine involvement in 20 sites. With respect to the remaining 62 of these sites, Occidental is in various stages of evaluation, and the extent of liability retained by Maxus Energy Corporation is disputed at 2 of these sites. For 54 of these sites, where environmental remediation efforts are probable and the costs can be reasonably estimated, Occidental has accrued reserves at the most likely cost to be incurred. The 54 sites include 11 sites as to which present information indicates that it is probable that Occidental's aggregate exposure is immaterial. In determining the reserves, Occidental uses the most current information available, including similar past 16 experiences, available technology, regulations in effect, the timing of remediation and cost-sharing arrangements. For the remaining 8 of the 62 sites being evaluated, Occidental does not have sufficient information to determine a range of liability, but Occidental does have sufficient information on which to base the opinion expressed above under the caption "Results of Operations." SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT REGARDING OUTLOOK AND FORWARD-LOOKING INFORMATION Portions of this report contain forward-looking statements and involve risks and uncertainties that could significantly affect expected results of operations, liquidity and cash flows. Factors that could cause results to differ materially include, but are not limited to: global commodity pricing fluctuations; competitive pricing pressures; higher than expected costs including feedstocks; the supply/demand considerations for Occidental's products; any general economic recession domestically or internationally; regulatory uncertainties; and not successfully completing any development of new fields, expansion, capital expenditure, efficiency improvement, acquisition or disposition. Forward-looking statements are generally accompanied by words such as "estimate", "project", "predict", "believes" or "expect", that convey the uncertainty of future events or outcomes. Occidental undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or otherwise. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, the forward-looking events discussed might not occur. ITEM 3.
