AI Brief
Q3 FY26 earnings call · Oct 28, 2026TL;DR. Phillips 66 delivered $5.6 billion of third-quarter earnings and $6.2 billion of operating cash flow excluding working capital, supported by stronger refining margins, while returning $2.8 billion to shareholders, reducing debt and advancing growth projects including Western Gateway. Non-refining earnings declined, fourth-quarter turnaround expense and chemicals utilization indicate pressure, and demand weakness, collateral and tax timing, Middle East operating constraints and elevated Western Gateway spending remain risks.
