Keeping in mind they are still making significant profits at the current lower gasoline retail prices.
Exon 2014 Quarterly Profits
1st Quarter 8.52%
2nd Quarter 7.86%
3rd Quarter 7.51%
Average 2014 APR to-date = ~7.96%
Chevron
1st Quarter 8.47%
2nd Quarter 9.78%
3rd Quarter 10.23%
Average 2014 APR to-date = ~9.49%
etc...
Caveat : Those are published company wide profits .. so it also includes revenue from other non-gasoline sources .. and it also includes non-gasoline costs they paid for buying new equipment , upgrading facilities, etc.
