据OE网站1月3日报道，据分析师称，埃克森美孚(exxonmobil )2021年第四季利润应会超过华尔街的普遍预期，并超过疫情爆发前的水平，这得益于油气的收益好于预期。
瑞士信贷(Credit Suisse)、丰业银行(Scotiabank)和摩根大通(JPMorgan)在埃克森美孚上周公布油气营业利润大幅上升后，都上调了2021年第四季度收益预期。官方结果将于2月1日公布。
这一盈利预期的提高推动埃克森美孚股价周一上涨3.8%，至63.51美元，上周五涨幅不足1%。该公司股价去年上涨48%，但仍低于两年前的水平。
2020年，由于油价下跌和炼油利润率下降，这家美国最大的石油生产商遭受了历史性的224亿美元损失。成本削减和能源价格上涨使该公司得以在今年偿还债务，并计划实施股票回购计划。
瑞士信贷分析师Manav Gupta上周五在报告中写道，埃克森美孚提交的一份证券备案文件显示，“季度业绩”、“高于先前指引的中间值”，且“远高于疫情前水平”。
根据三家银行的中点平均估值（不包括一次性项目），该公司可能获利82亿美元，合每股1.93美元。这高于Refinitiv IBES统计的分析师调整后每股1.79美元的利润。
埃克森美孚还表示，其油气和成品油按市值计将获利多达11亿美元。据美国证券交易委员会(Securities and Exchange Commission)提交的一份文件显示，包括英国北海资产在内的资产出售所得可能高达5亿美元。

Exxon Q4 Earnings Poised to Exceed Pre-pandemic Level
Exxon Mobil Corp's fourth quarter profit should top Wall Street's consensus and surpass its pre-pandemic levels, lifted by better-than-expected earnings from oil and gas, analysts said.
Credit Suisse, Scotiabank and JPMorgan have raised their fourth quarter earnings estimates following Exxon's flagging of sharply higher oil and gas operating profit last week. Official results are due on Feb. 1.
The higher earnings outlooks lifted Exxon shares 3.8% on Monday to $63.51 on top of Friday's less than 1% gain. The stock rose 48% last year but remains below where it traded two years ago.
In 2020, the largest U.S. oil producer suffered a historic $22.4 billion loss from falling oil prices and lower refining margins. Cost cuts and energy price hikes allowed it to pay down debt and plot a share buyback program this year.
An Exxon securities filing signaled quarterly results "above the midpoint" of prior guidance and "well above pre-pandemic levels," Credit Suisse analyst Manav Gupta wrote in a note on Friday.
The company could earn $8.2 billion, or $1.93 per share, according to the mid-point average estimate of the three banks that have updated their estimates, excluding one-time items. That is above analysts' adjusted profit of $1.79 per share as tallied by Refinitiv IBES.
Exxon also signaled mark-to-market gains of up to $1.1 billion for oil and gas and refined products. Proceeds from asset sales including its U.K. North Sea assets could deliver up to $500 million, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing.
