Company Snapshot

Investment Thesis

Exxon Mobil marries a low-cost upstream portfolio with advantaged refining, petrochemicals, and emerging low-carbon solutions. Permian integration, Guyana FPSOs, and large-scale LNG projects extend durable free cash flow while a strong balance sheet funds dividends and share repurchases.

  • Permian Synergy: On-site processing and pipelines lower breakevens below $35 per barrel, keeping production growth self-funded.
  • Global LNG: Papua New Guinea, Qatar, and U.S. Gulf projects expand exposure to premium long-term contracts.
  • Carbon Solutions: CCS hubs and low-carbon fuels provide optionality as industrial customers pursue decarbonization targets.

Upstream 55% of FY24 earnings
Energy Products 25% — refining & fuels
Chemical 12% — performance materials
Low Carbon Solutions 8% — CCS, hydrogen, biofuels
