Engine No. 1 Releases Investor Presentation Highlighting Need for Change at ExxonMobil

Details ExxonMobil Board’s Failure to Position the Company for Long-Term Value Creation in a Changing Industry and World

Engine No. 1’s Nominees Have a Diverse Set of Experiences in Successful, Global Energy Operations and Decades of Leading Value-Creating Transformations in the Energy Industry

Urges ExxonMobil Shareholders to Vote the WHITE Proxy Card TODAY “FOR ALL” of Engine No. 1’s Highly Qualified, Independent Nominees

Engine No. 1, which has nominated four highly qualified, independent director candidates to the Exxon Mobil Corporation (NYSE: XOM) (“ExxonMobil” or the “Company”) Board of Directors (the “Board”), today released an in-depth presentation to ExxonMobil shareholders detailing the need for change at ExxonMobil to protect and enhance long-term shareholder value in a changing industry and world. Engine No. 1 encourages ExxonMobil shareholders to review the facts set forth in its presentation so they can make an informed decision at the Company’s 2021 Annual Meeting regarding the future of the Company and their investment.

Engine No. 1’s investor presentation can be found here.

Key issues under the current Board examined in the presentation include:

  • Issue #1: Failure to Position ExxonMobil for Long-Term Value Creation
  • Issue #2: Rhetoric Does Not Address Long-Term Business Risk from Emissions
  • Issue #3: Lack of Capital Allocation Discipline
  • Issue #4: Little Reason to Trust Newfound Spending Discipline
  • Issue #5: Lack of Successful and Transformative Energy Experience on the Board
  • Issue #6: Misaligned Incentives

Engine No. 1’s director candidates add a highly relevant, unique and complementary set of skills to the Board, and, as directors, would help to address the fundamental issues at the Company by bringing to bear their collective experiences in value-creating transformational change in the energy sector.

Vote the WHITE proxy card TODAY to Reenergize ExxonMobil.
