Top Energy Stocks by Net Margin

Top energy companies ranked by net margin, latest annual filings.

What Net Margin Means for Energy Companies

Net margin inside energy is dominated by the commodity cycle. The same operating footprint can produce rich bottom-line margins when crude, natural gas, or refined products trade strongly and deeply negative ones in a cycle trough. Upstream producers, integrated majors, refiners, midstream operators, and oilfield services firms each interact with commodity prices differently, but the common thread across the sector is that headline net margin swings much more violently than in most industries.

Why It Matters Less in Energy

A single year's net margin rarely captures the true profitability of an energy asset base. Where the metric does reveal something enduring, it usually reflects reserve quality, operational efficiency, and hedging discipline. It is worth noting that non-cash impairments on oil and gas reserves can take net margin deeply negative in a downturn, and inventory and derivative accounting can move the headline number in ways that are disconnected from underlying cash generation.

What to Read Alongside

Pair net margin with [Gross Margin](/financials/top-gross-margin-stocks/energy/) for a read on realized price versus lifting cost, [Operating Margin](/financials/top-operating-margin-stocks/energy/) for the layer including overhead, and [Free Cash Flow](/financials/top-free-cash-flow-stocks/energy/) because reinvestment intensity varies widely across the sector.

How this ranking is built

Companies are ranked by net margin as reported in their most recent annual filing with the SEC. Figures shown are in US dollars (or percent, as noted), rounded to two decimals.

  • Source: annual 10-K / 20-F filings from companies trading on US exchanges (NYSE, Nasdaq, AMEX).
  • Fiscal year: whichever annual period the company has most recently filed. Fiscal years don't always align with the calendar year, so the "as of FY" stamp above reflects the most common year across the table.
  • Filtered out: warrants, preferred shares, and duplicate listings that share a parent company's financials.
  • Update cadence: refreshed as companies file new annual reports (typically within 60–90 days of fiscal year end).
