Exxon Mobil Corp 10-Q

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Overview During the second quarter of 2025, the price of crude oil decreased slightly relative to first quarter 2025, remaining near the middle of the 10-year historical range (2010-2019) supported by strong demand which helped to offset increased OPEC supply. Natural gas prices remained above the 10-year range on strong global demand. Global industry refining margins improved in the second quarter, moving back to the middle of the 10-year historical range driven by strong seasonal demand. Chemical margins remained at bottom of cycle, well below the 10-year range, with continued industry oversupply. During 2025, the U.S. announced a variety of trade-related actions, including the imposition of tariffs on imports from several countries. In response, many countries announced their own retaliatory tariffs. Certain tariffs were paused for a period of time but have not been withdrawn, while others have been revised. The global trade environment continues to be volatile. The likelihood of the U.S. or its trading partners resuming tariffs, imposing new or revised reciprocal tariffs, export restrictions, or other forms of trade-related sanctions is highly uncertain. Despite the current uncertainty as to what effects these actions will ultimately have on the Corporation, our suppliers and our customers, as well as on the overall macroeconomic environment, we do not anticipate any material near-term financial impacts. Selected Earnings Driver Definitions The earnings drivers provide additional visibility into our business results. The Corporation evaluates these drivers periodically to determine if any enhancements may provide helpful insights to the market. Listed below are descriptions of the earnings drivers: Advantaged Volume Growth. Represents earnings impacts from change in volume/mix from advantaged assets, advantaged projects, and high-value products. • Advantaged Assets (Advantaged growth projects). Includes Permian, Guyana, and LNG. • Advantaged Projects. Includes capital projects and programs of work that contribute to Energy, Chemical, and/or Specialty Products segments that drive integration of segments/businesses, increase yield of higher value products, or deliver higher than average returns. • High-Value Products. Includes performance products and lower-emission fuels. Performance products (performance chemicals, performance lubricants) refers to products that provide differentiated performance for multiple applications through enhanced properties versus commodity alternatives and bring significant additional value to customers and end-users. Lower-emission fuels refers to fuels with lower life cycle emissions than conventional transportation fuels for gasoline, diesel and jet transport. Base Volume. Represents all volume/mix drivers not included in Advantaged Volume Growth defined above. Structural Cost Savings. Represents after-tax earnings effects of Structural Cost Savings as defined on page 23 , including cash operating expenses related to divestments. Expenses. Represents all expenses otherwise not included in other earnings drivers. Timing Effects. Represents timing effects that are primarily related to unsettled derivatives (mark-to-market) and other earnings impacts driven by timing differences between the settlement of derivatives and their offsetting physical commodity realizations (due to LIFO inventory accounting). 21 Table of Contents Earnings (loss) excluding Identified Items (Non-GAAP) Earnings (loss) excluding Identified Items are earnings (loss) excluding individually significant non-operational events with, typically, an absolute corporate total earnings impact of at least $250 million in a given quarter. The earnings (loss) impact of an Identified Item for an individual segment may be less than $250 million when the item impacts several segments or several periods. Earnings (loss) excluding Identified Items does include non-operational earnings events or impacts that are generally below the $250 million threshold utilized for Identified Items. Management uses these figures to improve comparability of the underlying business across multiple periods by isolating and removing significant non-operational events from business results. The Corporation believes this view provides investors increased transparency into business results and trends, and provides investors with a view of the business as seen through the eyes of management. Earnings (loss) excluding Identified Items is not meant to be viewed in isolation or as a substitute for net income (loss) attributable to ExxonMobil as prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Relative to 2019, estimated cumulative Structural Cost Savings totaled $13.5 billion, which included an additional $1.4 billion in the first six months of 2025. The total change between periods in expenses below will reflect both Structural Cost Savings and other changes in spend, including market factors, 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 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.

The decrease in earnings was mainly driven by weaker crude prices , lower chemical realizations, and higher expenses from growth initiatives; partly offset by increased volumes from advantaged Upstream investments in the Permian and Structural Cost Savings. Cash capital expenditures were $6.3 billion, down $0.2 billion from second quarter 2024. Earnings for the first six months of 2025 were $14.8 billion, compared to $17.5 billion a year earlier. Cash capital expenditures were $12.3 billion, up $0.5 billion from the first six months of 2024. The Corporation distributed $8.6 billion in dividends to shareholders and repurchased $9.8 billion of common stock.

YTD 2025 versus YTD 2024 4.6 million oil-equivalent barrels per day in 2025 increased 520 thousand oil-equivalent barrels per day from 2024, driven by Permian production. Listed below are descriptions of ExxonMobil’s volumes reconciliation drivers which are provided to facilitate understanding of the terms. Entitlements - Net Interest are changes to ExxonMobil’s share of production volumes caused by non-operational changes to volume-determining drivers. These drivers consist of net interest changes specified in Production Sharing Contracts (PSCs), which typically occur when cumulative investment returns or production volumes achieve defined thresholds, changes in equity upon achieving pay-out in partner investment carry situations, equity redeterminations as specified in venture agreements, or as a result of the termination or expiry of a concession. Once a net interest change has occurred, it typically will not be reversed by subsequent events, such as lower crude oil prices. Entitlements - Price / Spend / Other are changes to ExxonMobil’s share of production volumes resulting from temporary changes to non-operational volume-determining drivers. These drivers include changes in oil and gas prices or spending levels from one period to another. According to the terms of contractual arrangements or government royalty regimes, price or spending variability can increase or decrease royalty burdens and/or volumes attributable to ExxonMobil. For example, at higher prices, fewer barrels are required for ExxonMobil to recover its costs. These effects generally vary from period to period with field spending patterns or market prices for oil and natural gas. Such drivers can also include other temporary changes in net interest as dictated by specific provisions in production agreements. Government Mandates are changes to ExxonMobil's sustainable production levels as a result of production limits or sanctions imposed by governments. Divestments are reductions in ExxonMobil’s production arising from commercial arrangements to fully or partially reduce equity in a field or asset in exchange for financial or other economic consideration. Growth and Other comprise all other operational and non-operational drivers not covered by the above definitions that may affect volumes attributable to ExxonMobil. Such drivers include, but are not limited to, production enhancements from project and work program activities, acquisitions including additions from asset exchanges, downtime, market demand, natural field decline, and any fiscal or commercial terms that do not affect entitlements. 27 Table of Contents ENERGY PRODUCTS Energy Products Financial Results (millions of dollars) Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Earnings (loss) (U.S. GAAP) United States 825 450 1,122 1,286 Non-U.S. 541 496 1,071 1,036 Total 1,366 946 2,193 2,322 Identified Items (1) United States — — — — Non-U.S. — — — — Total — — — — Earnings (loss) excluding Identified Items (1) (Non-GAAP) United States 825 450 1,122 1,286 Non-U.S. 541 496 1,071 1,036 Total 1,366 946 2,193 2,322 (1) Refer to page 22 for definition of Identified Items and earnings (loss) excluding Identified Items. 28 Table of Contents Energy Products Second Quarter Earnings Driver Analysis (millions of dollars) Margin – Industry refining margins increased earnings by $270 million, on higher fuel demand and industry supply outages.

Corporate and Financing expenses were $759 million for the second quarter of 2025, $449 million higher than the second quarter of 2024, due to lower interest income, unfavorable foreign exchange and increased pension-related expenses. Corporate and Financing expenses were $1,557 million for the first six months of 2025, $885 million higher than 2024, due to lower interest income, unfavorable foreign exchange and increased pension-related expenses. 34 Table of Contents LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES (millions of dollars) Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Net cash provided by/(used in) Operating activities 24,503 25,224 Investing activities (10,315) ( 9,446 ) Financing activities (22,264) ( 20,540 ) Effect of exchange rate changes 600 ( 318 ) Increase/(decrease) in cash and cash equivalents (7,476) ( 5,080 ) Cash and cash equivalents (at end of period) 15,711 26,488 Cash flow from operations and asset sales Net cash provided by operating activities (U.S. GAAP) 11,550 10,560 24,503 25,224 Proceeds associated with sales of subsidiaries, property, plant & equipment, and sales and returns of investments 176 926 1,999 1,629 Cash flow from operations and asset sales (Non-GAAP) 11,726 11,486 26,502 26,853 Because of the ongoing nature of our asset management and divestment program, we believe it is useful for investors to consider proceeds associated with asset sales together with cash provided by operating activities when evaluating cash available for investment in the business and financing activities, including shareholder distributions. Cash flow from operations and asset sales in the second quarter of 2025 was $11.7 billion, an increase of $0.2 billion from the comparable 2024 period. Cash provided by operating activities totaled $24.5 billion for the first six months of 2025, $0.7 billion lower than 2024. Net income including noncontrolling interests was $15.4 billion, a decrease of $2.8 billion from the prior year period. The adjustment for the noncash provision of $11.8 billion for depreciation and depletion was up $1.2 billion from 2024. Changes in operational working capital were a reduction of $4.8 billion during the period. All other items net increased cash flows by $2.2 billion in 2025 versus a decrease of $0.9 billion in 2024. See the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows for additional details. Investing activities for the first six months of 2025 used net cash of $10.3 billion, an increase of $0.9 billion compared to the prior year. Spending for additions to property, plant and equipment of $12.2 billion was $0.9 billion higher than 2024. Proceeds from asset sales were $2.0 billion, an increase of $0.4 billion compared to the prior year. Net investments and advances decreased $0.4 billion from $0.5 billion in 2024. Net cash used in financing activities was $22.3 billion in the first six months of 2025, including $9.8 billion for the purchase of 89.9 million shares of ExxonMobil stock, as part of the previously announced buyback program. This compares to net cash used in financing activities of $20.5 billion in the prior year. Total debt at the end of the second quarter of 2025 was $39.0 billion compared to $41.7 billion at year-end 2024. The Corporation's debt to total capital ratio was 12.6 percent at the end of the second quarter of 2025 compared to 13.4 percent at year-end 2024. The net debt to capital ratio (1) was 8.4 percent at the end of the second quarter, an increase of 1.9 percentage points from year-end 2024. The Corporation's capital allocation priorities are investing in competitively advantaged, high-return projects; maintaining a strong balance sheet; and sharing our success with our shareholders through more consistent share repurchases and a growing dividend. The Corporation distributed a total of $8.6 billion to shareholders in the first six months of 2025 through dividends. The Corporation has access to significant capacity of long-term and short-term liquidity. Internally generated funds are expected to cover the majority of financial requirements, supplemented by long-term and short-term debt. The Corporation had undrawn short-term committed lines of credit of $0.2 billion and undrawn long-term committed lines of credit of $0.7 billion as of the end of second quarter 2025. The Corporation, as part of its ongoing asset management program, continues to evaluate its mix of assets for potential upgrade. Because of the ongoing nature of this program, dispositions will continue to be made from time to time which will result in either gains or losses. Additionally, the Corporation continues to evaluate opportunities to enhance its business portfolio through acquisitions of assets or companies, and enters into such transactions from time to time. Key criteria for evaluating acquisitions include strategic fit, cost synergies, potential for future growth, low cost of supply, and attractive valuations. Acquisitions may be made with cash, shares of the Corporation’s common stock, or both. Litigation and other contingencies are discussed in Note 3 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. (1) Net debt is total debt of $39.0 billion less $14.4 billion of cash and cash equivalents excluding restricted cash . Net debt to capital ratio is net debt divided by net debt plus total equity of $270.0 billion. Total debt is the sum of notes and loans payable and long-term debt, as reported in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. 35 Table of Contents TAXES (millions of dollars) Three Months Ended June 30, Six Months Ended June 30, 2025 2024 2025 2024 Income taxes 3,351 4,094 6,918 7,897 Effective income tax rate 34% 34% 34% 35% Total other taxes and duties (1) 7,204 7,531 14,270 14,691 Total 10,555 11,625 21,188 22,588 (1) Includes “Other taxes and duties” plus taxes that are included in “Production and manufacturing expenses” and “Selli ng, general and administrative expenses”, each from the Consolidated Statement of Income.

The effective income tax rate, which is calculated based on consolidated company income taxes and ExxonMobil's share of equity company income taxes, was 34 percent, comparable with the prior year period. Total other taxes and duties decreased by $0.3 billion to $7.2 billion. Total taxes were $21.2 billion for the first six months of 2025, a decrease of $1.4 billion from 2024. Income tax expense decreased by $1.0 billion to $6.9 billion reflecting lower commodity prices. The effective income tax rate of 34 percent was down compared to the prior year period due primarily to favorable one-time items. Total other taxes and duties decreased by $0.4 billion to $14.3 billion. CASH CAPITAL EXPENDITURES (Non-GAAP) Cash capital expenditures (Cash Capex) is the sum of "Additions to property, plant and equipment"; "Additional investments and advances"; and "Other investing activities including collection of advances"; reduced by "Inflows from noncontrolling interests for major projects", each from the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows.

These include global or regional changes or imbalances in the supply and demand for oil, natural gas, petrochemicals, and feedstocks and other market factors; economic conditions and seasonal fluctuations that impact prices, differentials, and volume/mix for our products; developments or changes in local, national, or international laws, regulations, taxes, trade sanctions, trade tariffs, or policies affecting our business, such as government policies supporting lower carbon and new market investment opportunities, the punitive European taxes on the oil and gas sector and unequal support for different technological methods of emissions reduction or evolving, ambiguous and unharmonized standards imposed by various jurisdictions related to sustainability and greenhouse gas reporting; timely granting of governmental permits and certifications; uncertain impacts of deregulation on the legal and regulatory environment; changes in interest and exchange rates; variable impacts of trading activities on our margins and results each quarter; actions of co-venturers, competitors and commercial counterparties; the outcome of commercial negotiations, including final agreed terms and conditions; the outcome of competitive bidding and project awards; the ability to access debt markets on favorable terms or at all; the occurrence, pace, rate of recovery and effects of public health crises; adoption of regulatory incentives consistent with law; reservoir performance, including variability and timing factors applicable to unconventional resources, the success of new unconventional technologies, and the ability of new technologies to improve recovery relative to competitors; the level, outcome, and timing of exploration and development projects and decisions to invest in future reserves and resources; timely completion of construction projects and commencement of start-up operations, including reliance on third-party suppliers and service providers; final management approval of future projects and any changes in the scope, terms, costs or assumptions of such projects as approved; the actions of government or other actors against our core business activities and acquisitions, divestitures or financing opportunities; war, civil unrest, attacks against the company or industry, and other geopolitical or security disturbances, including disruption of land or sea transportation routes; decoupling of economies, realignment of global trade and supply chain networks, and disruptions in military alliances; expropriations, seizure, or capacity, insurance, shipping, import or export limitations imposed directly or indirectly by governments or laws; opportunities for potential acquisitions, investments or divestments and satisfaction of applicable conditions to closing, including timely regulatory approvals; the capture of efficiencies within and between business lines and the ability to maintain near-term cost reductions as ongoing efficiencies without impairing our competitive positioning; unforeseen technical or operating difficulties and unplanned maintenance; the development and competitiveness of alternative energy and emission reduction technologies; consumer preferences including willingness and ability to pay for reduced emission products; the results of research programs and the ability to bring new technologies to commercial scale on a cost-competitive basis; and other factors discussed under "Item 1A. Risk Factors" of ExxonMobil’s 2024 Form 10-K. Forward-looking and other statements regarding environmental and other sustainability efforts and aspirations are not an indication that these statements are material to investors or require disclosure in our filing with the SEC or any other regulatory authority. In addition, historical, current, and forward-looking environmental and other sustainability-related statements may be based on standards for measuring progress that are still developing, internal controls and processes that continue to evolve, and assumptions that are subject to change in the future, including future rule-making. 37 Table of Contents Actions needed to advance ExxonMobil’s 2030 greenhouse gas emission-reductions plans are incorporated into its medium-term business plans, which are updated annually. The reference case for planning beyond 2030 is based on ExxonMobil’s Global Outlook (Outlook) research and publication. The Outlook is reflective of the existing global policy environment and an assumption of increasing policy stringency and technology improvement to 2050. Current trends for policy stringency and development of lower-emission solutions are not yet on a pathway to achieve net-zero by 2050. As such, the Outlook does not project the degree of required future policy and technology advancement and deployment for the world, or ExxonMobil, to meet net zero by 2050. As future policies and technology advancements emerge, they will be incorporated into the Outlook, and ExxonMobil’s business plans will be updated accordingly. References to projects or opportunities may not reflect investment decisions made by ExxonMobil or its affiliates. Individual projects or opportunities may advance based on a number of factors, including availability of stable and supportive policy, permitting, technological advancement for cost-effective abatement, insights from the Corporate planning process, and alignment with our partners and other stakeholders. Capital investment guidance in lower-emission investments is based on our Corporate plan; however, actual investment levels will be subject to the availability of the opportunity set and public policy support, and focused on returns. The term “project” as used in this report can refer to a variety of different activities and does not necessarily have the same meaning as in any government payment transparency reports. ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK Information about market risks for the six months ended June 30, 2025, does not differ materially from that discussed under Item 7A of the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2024.
