Exxon Mobil Corporation today announced second-quarter 2025 earnings of $7.1 billion, or $1.64 per share assuming dilution. Cash flow from operating activities was $11.5 billion, and free cash flow was 5.4 billion. Shareholder distributions totalled $9.2 billion, including $4.3 billion of dividends and $5.0 billion of share repurchases, consistent with the company's announced plans.
“The second quarter, once again, proved the value of our strategy and competitive advantages, which continue to deliver for our shareholders no matter the market conditions or geopolitical developments,” said Darren Woods, ExxonMobil chairman and chief executive officer.
“We achieved our highest second-quarter Upstream production since the merger of Exxon and Mobil more than 25 years ago. It was also our best quarter yet for high-value product sales volumes in Product Solutions. Since 2019, we've delivered $13.5 billion in structural cost savings, more than all other IOCs combined.4 And our 2030 structural cost savings plan exceeds their cumulative cost savings targets.4 We began start-up operations for the first six of ten key projects this year and remain on track to start up the remaining four. Collectively, these projects are expected to improve our earnings power by more than $3 billion in 2026 at constant prices and margins.5 These results demonstrate how our competitive advantages are delivering industry-leading value today and providing a long runway of profitable growth far into the future.”
Financial Highlights
  • Year-to-date earnings were $14.8 billion versus $17.5 billion in the first half of 2024. Advantaged volume growth in the Permian and Guyana, additional structural cost savings, favourable timing effects, partially offset by lower earnings due to weaker crude prices, a decline in industry refining margins, higher depreciation costs and lower base volumes from strategic divestments.
  • The company achieved year-to-date Structural Cost Savings of $1.4 billion. Since 2019, the company has delivered $13.5 billion of cumulative Structural Cost Savings, more than all cost savings reported by other IOCs combined. The company expects to deliver $18 billion of cumulative savings through the end of 2030 versus 2019, also exceeding the total targets disclosed by other IOCs.
  • Generated strong cash flow from operations of $24.5 billion and free cash flow of $14.2 billion in the first half of the year. Industry-leading year-to-date shareholder distributions of $18.4 billion included $8.6 billion of dividends and $9.8 billion of share repurchases, consistent with the company's plan to deliver $20 billion of share repurchases this year. The company has repurchased approximately 40% of shares issued to acquire Pioneer Natural Resources since May of 2024.
  • The Corporation declared a third-quarter dividend of $0.99 per share, payable on September 10, 2025, to shareholders of record of Common Stock at the close of business on August 15, 2025.
