Murphy Oil reported Q2 2026 results on August 5, 2026. Earnings per share were $1.55, just short of the $1.57 estimate, a 1.12% miss. Revenue of $928.3 million beat the $888.5 million consensus by 4.48%. Against Q2 2025, EPS was almost six times the $0.27 earned a year earlier, and revenue rose about 33% from $695.6 million. Q1 2026 EPS had been $0.32.

Before this quarter, the table shows a long decline. Annual EPS fell from $5.60 in 2022 to $4.52 in 2023, $2.75 in 2024 and $1.38 in 2025, a drop of about 75% over three years. The low point in the table was Q4 2025 at $0.14 per share. Q2 2026 brought both EPS and revenue to their highest levels since Q3 2023, and the first half of 2026 totals $1.87, about 125% more than a year earlier. Over the last 20 quarters, Murphy Oil topped the EPS estimate 14 times.

Murphy Oil reported Q3 results between November 2 and November 7 in each of the past five years. That points to early November 2026 for the next report, which will show whether revenue holds near the Q2 level.
