Should I Buy Exxon Mobil Stock? XOM Pros and Cons Explained

These pros and cons were generated based on recent news and financial data from MarketBeat in order to provide readers with the fastest and most accurate insights. They were last updated on Sunday, January 12, 2025. Please send any questions or comments about these Exxon Mobil pros and cons to contact@marketbeat.com.

Exxon Mobil
Bull Case

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Exxon Mobil:

Exxon Mobil has a strong market capitalization of $469.53 billion, indicating its significant presence and stability in the oil and gas sector.
The stock is currently trading at $106.83, which may present a buying opportunity for investors looking to enter at a lower price point compared to its 1-year high of $126.34.
Analysts have given Exxon Mobil a consensus rating of "Moderate Buy," with a target price averaging $128.74, suggesting potential upside for investors.
Institutional investors own 61.80% of Exxon Mobil's stock, reflecting confidence from large financial entities in the company's future performance.
Recent price target increases from firms like BMO Capital Markets and Scotiabank indicate positive sentiment and expectations for growth in the company's stock value.

Exxon Mobil
Bear Case

Investors should be bearish about investing in Exxon Mobil for these reasons:

Despite the positive outlook, one analyst has rated the stock with a sell rating, indicating some skepticism about its future performance.
The price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 13.30, while not excessively high, suggests that the stock may not be undervalued compared to its earnings, which could limit growth potential.
Exxon Mobil's beta of 0.91 indicates that the stock is less volatile than the market, which may appeal to conservative investors but could also mean less opportunity for high returns in a bullish market.
Recent price target reductions from firms like Piper Sandler and TD Cowen suggest that some analysts are cautious about the company's near-term performance.
The company's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.13 is relatively low, which is generally positive, but it may also indicate that Exxon Mobil is not leveraging debt to fuel growth, potentially limiting expansion opportunities.
