Exxon Mobil Corporation today announced third-quarter 2025 earnings of $7.5 billion, or $1.76 per share assuming dilution. Cash flow from operating activities was $14.8 billion and free cash flow was 6.3 billion. Shareholder distributions totaled $9.4 billion, including $4.2 billion of dividends and $5.1 billion of share repurchases, consistent with the company's announced plans.

“ExxonMobil had a strong third quarter, continuing to demonstrate that we are truly in a league of our own,” said Darren Woods, ExxonMobil chairman and chief executive officer.

“We delivered the highest earnings per share we've had compared to other quarters in a similar oil-price environment. 2 In Guyana, we broke records with quarterly production surpassing 700,000 barrels per day, and started up the Yellowtail development four months early and under budget. In the Permian, we also set another production record of nearly 1.7 million oil-equivalent barrels per day, while continuing to expand the use of proprietary technologies like our lightweight proppant that improves well recoveries by up to 20%. We’ve now started up eight of our 10 key 2025 projects, with the remaining two on track. No one else in our industry is executing at this scale, with this level of innovation, or delivering this kind of value.”

Financial Highlights

Year-to-date earnings totaled $22.3 billion compared to $26.1 billion in the same period last year. Earnings excluding identified items related to restructuring costs were $22.9 billion, versus $26.1 billion in the prior year. Weaker crude prices, bottom-of-cycle chemical margins, higher depreciation, growth costs, and lower base volumes from strategic divestments decreased earnings. These impacts were partially offset by advantaged volume growth in the Permian and Guyana, additional structural cost savings, and favorable timing effects. The company surpassed $14 billion in cumulative Structural Cost Savings since 2019, with an additional $2.2 billion achieved in 2025. The company is on track to achieve more than $18 billion in cumulative Structural Cost Savings by the end of 2030. The company generated strong year-to-date cash flow from operations of $39.3 billion and free cash flow of $20.6 billion. Shareholder distributions of $27.8 billion included $12.9 billion of dividends and $14.9 billion of share repurchases, consistent with the company's plan to repurchase $20 billion of shares this year. The Corporation declared a fourth-quarter dividend of $1.03 per share, an increase of 4%, payable on December 10, 2025, to shareholders of record of Common Stock at the close of business on November 14, 2025. The company has grown its annual dividend-per-share payments for 43 consecutive years. The company's industry-leading debt-to-capital and net-debt-to-capital ratio were 13.5% and 9.5%, respectively, with a period-end cash balance of $13.9 billion. 1 Cash capital expenditures were $8.6 billion in the third quarter, including $2.4 billion in growth acquisitions. Year-to-date spending is $20.9 billion, of which $20.9 billion was for additions to property, plant and equipment. Excluding acquisitions, the company expects full-year cash capital expenditures slightly below the lower end of the $27 billion to $29 billion guidance range.

| 1 Net debt is total debt of $42.0 billion less $13.8 billion of cash and cash equivalents excluding restricted cash. Net-debt to-capital ratio is net debt divided by the sum of net debt and total equity of $268.2 billion. Period-end cash balance includes cash and cash equivalents including restricted cash. ExxonMobil has lower net debt-to-capital and debt-to-capital than all IOCs. Net debt-to-capital and debt-to-capital are sourced from Bloomberg. Figures are actuals for IOCs that reported results on or before October 30, 2025, or estimated using Bloomberg consensus as of October 30, 2025. |

Upstream year-to-date earnings were $17.8 billion, a decrease of $1.1 billion compared to the same period last year. Lower earnings from weaker crude realizations and higher depreciation from Tengiz were largely offset by advantaged volume growth in the Permian and Guyana, structural cost savings, and favorable foreign exchange, tax impacts, and timing effects. Year-to-date net production was 4.7 million oil-equivalent barrels per day, highlighted by a new quarterly production record in both the Permian, with nearly 1.7 million oil-equivalent barrels per day, and Guyana, where gross production exceeded 700,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day. Third-quarter earnings were $5.7 billion, an increase of $277 million from the second quarter. Earnings improved from advantaged volumes, driven by record production in Guyana and the Permian, structural cost savings, and stronger crude realizations. These gains were partially offset by lower base volumes. Third-quarter net production increased by 139,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day to 4.8 million oil-equivalent barrels per day. The Yellowtail project was brought online in the third quarter, four months ahead of schedule. As the largest of four Guyana developments to date, Yellowtail is expected to add an initial annual average production of 250,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day, increasing total installed capacity in Guyana to over 900,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day. Additionally, the company made the final investment decision on its seventh project in the Stabroek block, Hammerhead, which is expected to add an additional 150,000 oil-equivalent barrels per day of production by 2029. The company acquired more than 80,000 additional net acres in the Permian Basin from Sinochem Petroleum in the third quarter. The transaction provides opportunities to further deploy the company's innovative technology, leading to greater returns. The company commissioned its next-generation supercomputer, Discovery 6, developed in collaboration with Hewlett Packard Enterprise and NVIDIA. This advanced supercomputer accelerates the company's ability to process, analyze, and act on reservoir and exploration data.

Energy Products year-to-date 2025 earnings were $4.0 billion, an increase of $402 million versus the same period last year despite weaker industry refining margins. Increases in earnings were driven by structural cost savings and record refinery throughput 1 , supported by lower scheduled maintenance and advantaged projects growth, partially offset by higher expenses related to growth projects. Third-quarter earnings were $1.8 billion, an increase of $474 million from the second quarter. The earnings improvement was driven by stronger industry refining margins due to supply disruptions, as well as higher volumes from record refinery throughput 1 and advantaged projects growth. These gains were partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange and tax impacts.

Chemical Products year-to-date earnings were $1.1 billion, a decrease of $1.4 billion versus the first three quarters of 2024. Results were impacted by weaker margins and higher China Chemical Complex related expenses, partially offset by structural cost savings and record high-value product sales 2 . Third-quarter earnings of $515 million increased $222 million compared to the second quarter. Higher margins, record high-value product sales 2 , and lower expenses were partially offset by unfavorable regional volume mix.

Specialty Products continued to deliver strong earnings from its portfolio of high-value products. Year-to-date earnings were $2.2 billion, a decrease of $131 million compared to the same period last year. Higher expenses, including spending on carbon materials market development and Proxxima TM systems, and unfavorable foreign exchange were partially offset by structural cost savings. Third-quarter earnings of $740 million were down $40 million from the prior quarter. Weaker margins and lower seasonal volumes were partially offset by lower expenses and favorable foreign exchange. The company announced the acquisition of key assets from Superior Graphite, a leader in the graphite and specialty carbon market. This acquisition advances entry into the battery anode materials market by leveraging Superior Graphite's furnace technology to accelerate progress toward advanced graphite production.

Excluding identified items related to restructuring costs, year-to-date net charges of $2.3 billion increased $1.1 billion compared to the same period last year due to lower interest income, unfavorable foreign exchange, and increased pension-related expenses. Higher net charges were partially offset by favorable tax impacts. Third-quarter net charges of $1.2 billion increased $467 million versus the second quarter. Excluding identified items related to restructuring costs, net charges were $716 million, which were comparable to the second quarter.

This press release references Structural Cost Savings, which describes decreases in cash opex excluding energy and production taxes as a result of operational efficiencies, workforce reductions, divestment-related reductions, and other cost-saving measures, that are expected to be sustainable compared to 2019 levels. Relative to 2019, estimated cumulative Structural Cost Savings totaled $14.3 billion, which included an additional $2.2 billion in the first nine months of 2025. The total change between periods in expenses above will reflect both Structural Cost Savings and other changes in spend, including market drivers, such as inflation and foreign exchange impacts, as well as changes in activity levels and costs associated with new operations, mergers and acquisitions, new business venture development, and early-stage projects. Structural Cost Savings from new operations, mergers and acquisitions, and new business venture developments are included in the cumulative Structural Cost Savings. Estimates of cumulative annual Structural Cost Savings may be revised depending on whether cost reductions realized in prior periods are determined to be sustainable compared to 2019 levels. Structural Cost Savings are stewarded internally to support management's oversight of spending over time. This measure is useful for investors to understand the Corporation's efforts to optimize spending through disciplined expense management.

ExxonMobil will discuss financial and operating results and other matters during a webcast at 8:30 a.m. Central Time on October 31, 2025. To listen to the event or access an archived replay, please visit www.exxonmobil.com .
