Investment thesis

🔼 OPEC has extended production restrictions. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) last week maintained the current quotas for the countries participating in the cartel and those that have joined the agreement. The extension of restrictions will support oil prices, which significantly affect the revenue of the oil and gas sector in general and Exxon Mobil in particular.

🔼 The American economy is feeling confident. The recent labour market report showed that the U.S. economy is in good shape. This allows for expectations of strong demand for energy resources.

🔼 Dividends and buyback. The high level of cash flow allows Exxon Mobil to regularly share profits with shareholders through dividends and share buybacks. The company offers a fairly attractive dividend yield of 3.42%. Additionally, in Q1 2024, it spent $3 bln on buybacks and has an approved plan to repurchase another $20 bln.

🔽 Risks. The key risk for Exxon Mobil shares is oil prices, which can decrease for various reasons.
