Cautionary Statement

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS. Statements of future events, conditions, expectations, plans, or ambitions in this presentation or the subsequent discussion period are forward-looking
statements. Similarly, discussions of future carbon capture, biofuels, and hydrogen plans to drive toward net zero are dependent on future market factors, such as continued technological
progress and policy support, and represent forward-looking statements. Actual future results, including financial and operating performance; potential earnings, cash flow, and rates of return;
total capital expenditures and mix, including allocations of capital to low carbon solutions; realization and maintenance of cost reductions and efficiency gains, including the ability to offset
inflationary pressures; ambitions to reach Scope 1 and Scope 2 net zero from operated assets by 2050, to reach Scope 1 and 2 net zero in Upstream Permian Basin unconventional operated
assets by 2030, to eliminate routine flaring in-line with World Bank Zero Routine Flaring, to reach near-zero methane emissions from its operations, to meet ExxonMobil’s emission reduction
plans and goals, divestment and start-up plans, and associated project plans as well as technology efforts; success in or development of future business markets like carbon capture, hydrogen
or biofuels; maintenance and turnaround activity; drilling and improvement programs; price and margin recovery; shareholder distributions; planned integration benefits; resource recoveries
and production rates; and product sales levels and mix could differ materially due to a number of factors. These include global or regional changes in oil, gas, petrochemicals, or feedstock
prices, differentials, seasonal fluctuations, or other market or economic conditions affecting the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries and the demand for our products; government policies
supporting lower carbon investment opportunities such as the U.S. Inflation Reduction Act or policies limiting the attractiveness of investments such as European taxes on the energy sector;
variable impacts of trading activities each quarter; policy and consumer support for emission-reduction products and technology; the outcome of competitive bidding and project wins;
regulatory actions targeting public companies in the oil and gas industry; changes in local, national, or international laws, regulations, and policies affecting our business including with respect
to the environment; taxes, trade sanctions, and actions taken in response to pandemic concerns; the ability to realize efficiencies within and across our business lines and to maintain current
cost reductions as efficiencies without impairing our competitive positioning; the outcome and timing of exploration and development projects; decisions to invest in future reserves; reservoir
performance, including variability in unconventional projects; the outcome of exploration projects and decisions to invests in future resources; timely completion of construction projects; war
and other security disturbances; expropriations, seizures, and capacity, insurance or shipping limitations by foreign governments or international embargoes; changes in consumer preferences;
opportunities for and regulatory approval of investments or divestments that may arise; the outcome of our or competitors’ research efforts and the ability to bring new technology to
commercial scale on a cost-competitive basis; the development and competitiveness of alternative energy and emission reduction technologies; unforeseen technical or operating difficulties
including the need for unplanned maintenance; and other factors discussed here and in Item 1A. Risk Factors of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and under the heading “Factors Affecting
Future Results” available through the Investors page of our website at exxonmobil.com. All forward-looking statements are based on management’s knowledge and reasonable expectations
at the time of this presentation and we assume no duty to update these statements as of any future date. Neither future distribution of this material nor the continued availability of this
material in archive form on our website should be deemed to constitute an update or re-affirmation of these figures as of any future date. Any future update of these figures will be provided
only through a public disclosure indicating that fact.

Reconciliations and definitions of non-GAAP and other terms are provided in the text or in the supplemental information accompanying these slides beginning on page 26.

Supplemental Information

ExxonMobil reported emissions, including reductions and avoidance performance data, are based on a combination of measured and estimated data. Calculations are
based on industry standards and best practices, including guidance from the American Petroleum Institute (API) and Ipieca. Emissions reported are estimates only, and
performance data depends on variations in processes and operations, the availability of sufficient data, the quality of those data and methodology used for
measurement and estimation. Emissions data is subject to change as methods, data quality, and technology improvements occur, and changes to performance data
may be updated. Emissions, reductions and avoidance estimates for non-ExxonMobil operated facilities are included in the equity data and similarly may be updated as
changes in the performance data are reported. ExxonMobil’s plans to reduce emissions are good faith efforts based on current relevant data and methodology, which
could be changed or refined. ExxonMobil works to continuously improve its approach to identifying, measuring and addressing emissions. ExxonMobil actively engages
with industry, including API and Ipieca, to improve emission factors and methodologies, including measurements and estimates.
All references to production rates, project capacity, resource size, and acreage are on a gross basis, unless otherwise noted.
Actions needed to advance the Company’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 the Company’s Energy Outlook research and publication. The Outlook is reflective of the existing
global policy environment. The Energy Outlook does not attempt to 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 the
Company’s business plans will be updated accordingly.
ExxonMobil has business relationships with thousands of customers, suppliers, governments, and others. For convenience and simplicity, words such as venture, joint
venture, partnership, co-venturer, operated by others, and partner are used to indicate business and other relationships involving common activities and interests, and
those words may not indicate precise legal relationships.
Competitor data is based on publicly available information and, where estimated or derived, done so on a consistent basis with ExxonMobil data. Future competitor
data, unless otherwise noted, is taken from publicly available statements or disclosures by that competitor and has not been independently verified by ExxonMobil or
any third party. We note that certain competitors report financial information under accounting standards other than U.S. GAAP (i.e., IFRS).
See the Cautionary Statement at the front of this presentation for additional information regarding forward-looking statements.

Supplemental Information

DEFINITIONS AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE RECONCILIATIONS


Debt-to-capital ratio (leverage). Total debt / (total debt + total equity). Total debt is the sum of (1) Notes and loans payable and (2) Long-term debt, as reported in Form 10-Q
along with Total equity.
Divestments. Refers to asset sales; results include associated cash proceeds and production impacts, as applicable, and are consistent with our internal planning.
Free cash flow. Free cash flow is cash flow from operations and asset sales less additions to property, plant and equipment, and additional investments and advances, plus
other investing activities, including collection of advances. This measure is useful when evaluating cash available for financing activities, including shareholder distributions, after
investment in the business. See reconciliation on page 30; for information concerning the calculation and reconciliation of free cash flow for historical periods see the
Frequently Used Terms available on the Investors page of our website at www.exxonmobil.com under the heading News & Resources.
Operating costs (Opex). Operating costs are the costs during the period to produce, manufacture, and otherwise prepare the company’s products for sale – including energy,
staffing, and maintenance costs. They exclude the cost of raw materials, taxes, and interest expense and are on a before-tax basis. While ExxonMobil’s management is
responsible for all revenue and expense elements of net income, operating costs, as defined above, represent the expenses most directly under management’s control, and
therefore are useful for investors and ExxonMobil management in evaluating management’s performance. For information concerning the calculation and reconciliation of
operating costs see the table on slide 29.
Performance product (performance chemicals). Refers to Chemical products that provide differentiated performance for multiple applications through enhanced properties
versus commodity alternatives and bring significant additional value to customers and end-users.
Project. The term “project” as used in this presentation can refer to a variety of different activities and does not necessarily have the same meaning as in any government
payment transparency reports. May not reflect investment decisions made by the company. Individual opportunities may advance based on a number of factors, including
availability of supportive policy, technology for cost-effective abatement, and alignment with our partners and other stakeholders. The company may refer to these
opportunities as projects in external disclosures at various stages throughout their progression.
Returns, rate of return, IRR. Unless referring specifically to external data, references to returns, rate of return, IRR, and similar terms mean future discounted cash flow returns
on future capital investments based on current company estimates. Investment returns exclude prior exploration and acquisition costs.

DEFINITIONS AND NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURE RECONCILIATIONS, CONTINUED


Structural savings (also structural cost savings, structural cost reductions, structural efficiencies). Structural cost savings describe decreases in cash opex excluding energy
and production taxes as a result of operational efficiencies, workforce 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 $7 billion. The total change between periods in expenses above 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. 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. For information concerning the calculation and reconciliation of
operating costs see the table on slide 29.
Total shareholder return (TSR). Measures the change in value of an investment in stock over a specified period of time, assuming dividend reinvestment. We calculate
shareholder return over a particular measurement period by: dividing (1) the sum of (a) the cumulative value of dividends received during the measurement period, assuming
reinvestment, plus (b) the difference between the stock price at the end and at the beginning of the measurement period; by (2) the stock price at the beginning of the
measurement period. For this purpose, we assume dividends are reinvested in stock at market prices at approximately the same time actual dividends are paid. Shareholder
return is usually quoted on an annualized basis.

Capital employed is a measure of net investment. When viewed from the perspective of how the capital is used by the businesses, it includes ExxonMobil’s net share of
property, plant and equipment and other assets less liabilities, excluding both short-term and long-term debt. When viewed from the perspective of the sources of capital
employed in total for the Corporation, it includes ExxonMobil’s share of total debt and equity. Both of these views include ExxonMobil’s share of amounts applicable to equity
companies, which the Corporation believes should be included to provide a more comprehensive measure of capital employed.

Return on average capital employed – corporate total (non-GAAP) 24.9%

Return on average capital employed (ROCE) is a performance measure ratio. From the perspective of the business segments, ROCE is annual business segment earnings
divided by average business segment capital employed (average of beginning and end-of-year amounts). These segment earnings include ExxonMobil’s share of segment
earnings of equity companies, consistent with our capital employed definition, and exclude the cost of financing. The Corporation’s total ROCE is net income attributable to
ExxonMobil excluding the after-tax cost of financing, divided by total corporate average capital employed. The Corporation has consistently applied its ROCE definition for
many years and views it as one of the best measures of historical capital productivity in our capital-intensive, long-term industry. Additional measures, which are more cash flow
based, are used to make investment decisions.
