Exxon Mobil Profit Soars 41%
Exxon Mobil reported a 41% increase in net income for the third quarter, compared to last year. NEW YORK (CNNMoney) -- Exxon Mobil reported third quarter earnings of $10.3 billion on Thursday, a surge of 41% from the year-earlier quarter that beat expectations. Exxon's (XOM, Fortune 500) stock rose 1% in premarket trading, as the company attributed the increase to higher prices for oil and natural gas. The net profit for the world's leading oil company soared compared to the year-earlier net income of $7.4 billion. Per-share income climbed to $2.13 per share from $1.44 in the prior year. The company said that revenue rose to $125.3 billion from $95.3 billion in the year-ago quarter. Analysts were expecting revenue to jump 19% to $113.6 billion for the third quarter, and a surge in net income to $10.2 billion, with earnings of $2.12 per share. That's according to a consensus of forecasts from Thomson Reuters. But Exxon's income was well below its record profit of $14.83 billion for the third quarter in 2008. Oil industry competitors also saw stock gains. In premarket trading, Chevron Corp (CVX, Fortune 500). and BP PLC (BP) rose about 1%, while Royal Dutch Shell (RDSA) climbed nearly 2% and Total SA (TOT) jumped 4%. Bottom Line: The People are suffering while they make billions.
