XOM--
The current consensus on Exxon Mobil is a Moderate Buy, with an average price target of $124.68. This reflects a 17.25% upside from the current market price. The company reported Q1 revenue of $81.06 billion and net profit of $7.71 billion, underscoring its strong financial performance [2].
Exxon Mobil's quarterly dividend, announced earlier this year, is $0.99 per share, translating to an annualized yield of 3.7%. The dividend payout ratio is 56.25%, indicating a significant portion of earnings is being returned to shareholders [1].
Analysts have mixed views on Exxon Mobil, with several research firms upgrading their ratings in recent months. For instance, Wall Street Zen upgraded Exxon Mobil from a "sell" to a "hold" rating, while Wells Fargo & Company set a $127.00 price target and gave the company an "overweight" rating [2].
Institutional investors have shown continued interest in Exxon Mobil, with several firms increasing their stakes in the company. For example, 10Elms LLP acquired a new stake worth about $25,000, and Clarity Asset Management Inc. boosted its position by 29.7% during the fourth quarter [2].
Despite the Hold rating, Exxon Mobil's strong financial performance and consistent dividend payouts make it an attractive investment for income-oriented investors. However, the company's exposure to volatile oil prices and geopolitical risks should be carefully considered.
