Investing.com -- Exxon Mobil (NYSE:XOM) reported better-than-expected earnings and revenue for the fourth quarter, though shares in the oil major slipped over 2% following the release.
The company posted earnings per share (EPS) of $1.71, ahead of consensus expectations of $1.68, while revenue eased from the year-ago quarter to $82.31 billion, but topped forecasts of $81.04 billion.
"ExxonMobil is a fundamentally stronger company than it was just a few years ago, and our 2025 results demonstrate that," said Darren Woods, ExxonMobil chairman and CEO.
"We’re capturing more value from every barrel and molecule we produce and building growth platforms at scale - creating a long runway of profitable growth through 2030 and beyond."
Exxon generated $12.7 billion in cash flow from operating activities during the quarter, with free cash flow totaling $5.6 billion.
