Devin McDermott has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight Exxon Mobil’s strong financial outlook and strategic advancements. The company has demonstrated significant progress, with management projecting an increase in earnings by $25 billion and cash flow by $35 billion between 2024 and 2030, both figures surpassing previous guidance by $5 billion. This growth is attributed to the outperformance in the Permian Basin, structural cost reductions, and optimization of the base portfolio, all achieved without additional capital spending.
Furthermore, Exxon Mobil anticipates generating approximately $145 billion in surplus cash flow above capital expenditures and dividends by 2030, assuming a $65 per barrel Brent price. This financial strength supports potential dividend growth and aligns with the company’s strategic guidance for 2026. The company’s ability to maintain a falling reinvestment rate and achieve a breakeven point of $30 Brent by 2030 further solidifies its robust financial position, justifying the Buy rating from Devin McDermott.
