Verdict: Miss
ExxonMobil meldete am 31. Juli 2026 (vor Marktöffnung) ein bereinigtes Q2-EPS von 3,52 USD (bereinigte Gewinne: 14,7 Mrd. USD). Die Vorhersage basierte auf einem vollständig falschen Konsens-EPS von ~2,35 USD — der tatsächliche Analystenkonsens lag bei ~3,68 USD (Zacks/Alphastreet). Gegenüber diesem realen Konsens verfehlte ExxonMobil das bereinigte EPS um ca. 4,3 % (3,52 USD vs. 3,68 USD). Ursachen für das Miss: höhere Wartungskosten (scheduled maintenance), gestiegene Abschreibungen aus Neuinvestitionen sowie Produktionsunterbrechungen im Nahen Osten. Umsatzseitig wurde der Konsens mit ~116 Mrd. USD deutlich übertroffen. Die Vorhersage war damit in ihrem Kern falsch: ExxonMobil hat den tatsächlichen EPS-Konsens nicht übertroffen, sondern verfehlt.
