Exxon Q3 Adjusted Earnings Reach $17.5B, Beating Estimates

ExxonMobil reported third-quarter 2026 adjusted earnings of $17.5 billion, or $4.23 per share, beating estimates as a war-driven refining surge lifted results, according to Reuters. Free cash flow, the cash left after capital spending, was $19.1 billion. Exxon's adjusted figure differs from Chevron's headline number.
