Meeting the world’s energy needs and reducing emissions ESG summary for shareholder engagements ExxonMobil Research Center April 2023 Clinton, New Jersey


Cautionary statement Outlooks; projections; plans; ambitions; estimates; and descriptions of strategic plans and objectives are forward-looking statements. Similarly, emission-reduction roadmaps are dependent on future market factors, such as continued technological progress and policy support, and also represent forward-looking statements. Actual future results from our capital plans, lower-emissions spending and structural cost reductions efforts; 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 reduce methane emissions, to meet ExxonMobil’s emission reduction plans, 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 could differ materially due to a number of factors. These include the evolution of the energy market compared to our investments in current and future potential markets; the ability to bring new technologies to commercial scale on a cost-competitive basis, including carbon capture projects, biofuel projects and hydrogen projects; policy and consumer support for lower-emissions products and technologies in different jurisdictions; regulatory actions to implement the Inflation Reduction Act; changes in law, taxes, regulation, or policies, including environmental regulations, political sanctions, and international treaties; the timely granting or freeze, suspension or revocation of government permits; regional differences in product concentration and demand; the severity, length and ultimate impact of future pandemics and government responses on people and economies; war, trade agreements, shipping blockades or harassment and other political or security concerns; feasibility and timing for regulatory approval of potential investments or divestments; the capture of efficiencies between business lines; unexpected technological developments; general economic conditions, including the occurrence and duration of economic recessions; unforeseen technical or operating difficulties; and other factors discussed here, in Item 1A. Risk Factors in our Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2022 and under the heading Factors Affecting Future Results on the Investors page of our website at www.exxonmobil.com under the heading News & Resources. The forward-looking statements and dates used in this presentation are based on management’s good faith plans and objectives as of the date of this presentation, unless otherwise stated. We assume no duty to update these statements as of any future date and 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. This presentation includes a number of third-party scenarios such as the IPCC 74 Lower 2°C scenarios, made available through the IPCC SR 1.5 scenario explorer data, and the International Energy Agency’s (IEA) Net Zero Emissions by 2050 Scenario. These third-party scenarios reflect the modeling assumptions and outputs of their respective authors, not ExxonMobil, and their use and inclusion herein is not an endorsement by ExxonMobil of their likelihood or probability. The analysis done by ExxonMobil on the IPCC Lower 2°C scenarios and the IEA NZE 2050 scenario and the representation thereof aims to reflect the average or trends across a wide range of pathways. Where data was not or insufficiently available, we conducted further analysis to enable a more granular view on trends within these scenarios. Actions needed to advance the Company’s 2030 greenhouse gas emission-reductions plans are incorporated into its medium-term business plans, which we update annually. The reference case for planning beyond 2030 is based on the Company’s Energy Outlook research and publication, which contains the Company’s demand and supply projection based on its assessment of current trends in technology, government policies, consumer preferences, geopolitics, and economic development. Reflective of the existing global policy environment, the Energy Outlook does not 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 reported emissions, including reductions and avoidance performance data, are based on a combination of measured and estimated data using reasonable efforts and collection methods. Calculations are based on industry standards and best practices, including guidance from the American Petroleum Institute (API) and Ipieca. The uncertainty associated with the emissions, reductions and avoidance performance data depends on variation in the processes and operations, the availability of sufficient data, the quality of those data and methodology used for measurement and estimation. Changes to the performance data may be reported as updated data and/or emission methodologies become available. ExxonMobil works with industry, including API and Ipieca, to improve emission factors and methodologies, including measurements and estimates. 2 EXXONMOBIL

Supplemental information Definitions and non-GAAP financial measure reconciliations Structural savings (also structural cost savings, structural cost reductions, structural efficiencies). 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 31. Lower-emission fuels. Fuels with lower life cycle emissions than conventional transportation fuels for gasoline, diesel, and jet transport. Roadmap (emission reductions). The Company’s roadmap approach identifies greenhouse gas emission reduction opportunities and the investment and policy needs required to get to net zero. The roadmaps are tailored to account for facility configuration and maintenance schedules, and they will be updated as technologies and policies evolve. Separately, the reference case for planning beyond 2030 (including impairment assessments and future planned development activities) is based on the Energy Outlook, which contains the Company’s demand and supply projection based on its assessment of current trends in technology, government policies, consumer preferences, geopolitics, and economic development. As the roadmaps evolve, they continue to inform the company’s planning process. Operating cash flow modeled under IEA NZE 2050 scenario. Operating cash flow is defined as net income, plus depreciation, depletion and amortization for consolidated and equity companies, plus noncash adjustments related to asset retirement obligations plus proceeds from asset sales. The Company believes this measure can be helpful in assessing the resiliency of the business to generate cash from different potential future markets. The performance data presented in this publication, including on emissions, is not financial data and is not GAAP data. 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. 33
