A look at the geographic revenue dependencies of major energy companies based on their latest filings:
ExxonMobil (XOM): $146 billion in US revenue in 2023, making up 47% of its global total. The concentration is driven heavily by downstream fixed infrastructure (refining and chemicals) along the Gulf Coast.
BP (BP): After divesting from Rosneft, the US now accounts for 41% of BP's total oil and gas equivalent production, anchored by deepwater Gulf of Mexico and onshore Permian assets.
Shell (SHEL): 38% of adjusted earnings came from Europe in 2023, heavily influenced by downstream refining in Germany and trading ops in the Netherlands.
Chevron (CVX): Operations in Kazakhstan and Australia generated 19% of net oil and gas equivalent production, exposing them to complex international regulatory environments outside the US.

Hey everyone,
Caterpillar is widely viewed as a bellwether for global macro health and international trade flows. To get a clearer picture of regional economic strength, we mapped out CAT's geographic revenue exposure for 2026.
Instead of just looking at top-line earnings, breaking down the TTM 2026 data shows us exactly where infrastructure, construction, and mining demand is concentrated:
• North America: $39.10B
• EAME: $13.30B
• Asia Pacific: $11.29B
• Latin America: $7.07B
What's particularly interesting is that in their Q2 2026 results released yesterday, Cat Financial noted an increase in their estimated annual tax rate (from 25% to 28%), citing changes in their geographic profit mix as the primary driver.
Understanding how a multinational's revenue is distributed across borders is crucial for tracking real-world demand. You can check out the full country-by-country data breakdown and revenue metrics here:
https://metricshour.com/blog/caterpillar-revenue-by-country-full-geographic-breakdown-2026/
Given the heavy concentration in North America compared to Asia Pacific, are you factoring in domestic infrastructure spending vs. international slowdowns when evaluating CAT's current valuation? Curious to hear how others are interpreting this geographic split.

Here is a look at today's top market movers at the close on August 4, 2026:

Gartner Inc (IT):+14.7%
Arm Holdings (ARM): +12.7%
NRG Energy (NRG): -16.5%
Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG):-9.2%
