EXXON MOBIL CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis Of Financial Statement Preparation
These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in the context of the consolidated financial statements and notes
thereto filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission in the
corporation's 2002 Annual Report on Form 10-K. In the opinion of the
corporation, the information furnished herein reflects all known
accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results
for the periods reported herein. All such adjustments are of a normal
recurring nature. The corporation's exploration and production
activities are accounted for under the "successful efforts" method.
2. Stock Option Accounting
Effective January 1, 2003, the corporation adopted the recognition
provisions of Financial Accounting Standards Board Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123 (FAS 123), "Accounting for
Stock-Based Compensation" for all employee stock-based awards granted
after that date. In accordance with FAS 123, compensation expense for
future awards will be measured by the fair value of the award at the date
of grant and recognized over the vesting period. The fair value of awards
in the form of restricted stock is the market price of the stock. The fair
value of awards in the form of stock options is estimated using an
option-pricing model.
As permitted by FAS 123, the corporation has retained its prior method of
accounting for stock-based awards granted before January 1, 2003. Under
this method, compensation expense for awards granted in the form of stock
options is measured at the intrinsic value of the options (the difference
between the market price of stock and the exercise price of the options)
on the date of grant. Since these two prices are the same on the date of
grant, no compensation expense was recognized in income for these awards.
Additionally, compensation expense for awards granted in the form of
restricted stock is based on the price of the stock when it is granted and
is recognized over the vesting period, which is the same method of
accounting as under FAS 123.
If the provisions of FAS 123 had been adopted in the prior year quarter,
the impact on compensation expense, net income, and net income per share
would have been as follows:

3. Discontinued Operations
In 2002, the copper business in Chile and the coal operations in Colombia
were sold. Prior periods include reclassifications to reflect the
earnings of these businesses as discontinued operations. Income taxes
related to discontinued operations in the first quarter of 2002 were
$7 million. Revenues and earnings for these businesses were historically
reported in the "All Other" line in the segment disclosures located in
note 10 on page 12.
4. Accounting Change
As of January 1, 2003 the corporation adopted Financial Accounting
Standards Board Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No.
143 (FAS 143), "Accounting for Asset Retirement Obligations." The
primary impact of FAS 143 is to change the method of accruing for
upstream site restoration costs. These costs were previously accrued
ratably over the productive lives of the assets in accordance with
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 19 (FAS 19), "Financial
Accounting and Reporting by Oil and Gas Producing Companies." At the end
of 2002, the cumulative amount accrued under FAS 19 was approximately
$3.5 billion. Under FAS 143, the fair values of asset retirement
obligations are recorded as liabilities on a discounted basis when they
are incurred, which is typically at the time the assets are installed.
Amounts recorded for the related assets will be increased by the amount
of these obligations. Over time the liabilities will be accreted for
the change in their present value and the initial capitalized costs will
be depreciated over the useful lives of the related assets.
The cumulative adjustment for the change in accounting principle reported
in the first quarter of 2003 was after-tax income of $550 million
(net of $434 million of income tax effects, including ExxonMobil's share
of related equity company income taxes of $51 million), or $0.08 per
common share. The effect of this accounting change on the balance sheet
was a $0.3 billion increase to property, plant and equipment, a
$0.6 billion reduction to the accrued liability and a $0.4 billion
increase in deferred income tax liabilities.
This adjustment is due to the difference in the method of accruing site
restoration costs under FAS 143 compared with the method required by
FAS 19, the accounting standard that the corporation has been required to
follow since 1978. Under FAS 19, site restoration costs are accrued on a
unit-of-production basis of accounting as the oil and gas is produced. The
FAS 19 method matches the accruals with the revenues generated from
production and results in most of the costs being accrued early in field
life, when production is at the highest level. Because FAS 143 requires
accretion of the liability as a result of the passage of time using an
interest method of allocation, the majority of the costs will be accrued
towards the end of field life, when production is at the lowest level. The
cumulative income adjustment described above resulted from reversing the
higher liability accumulated under FAS 19 in order to adjust it to the
lower present value amount resulting from transition to FAS 143. This
amount being reversed in transition, which was previously charged to
operating earnings under FAS 19, will again be charged to those earnings
under FAS 143 in future years.
If FAS 143 had been in effect in the first quarter of 2002, net income
that would have been reported in that quarter would not have been
materially different from the net income that was reported under
FAS 19. The effect of FAS 143 on net income in the current quarter is
also not material.

5. Recently Issued Statements of Financial Accounting Standards
In January 2003, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued
Interpretation No. 46 (FIN 46), "Consolidation of Variable Interest
Entities," which provides guidance on when certain entities should be
consolidated or the interests in those entities should be disclosed by
enterprises that do not control them through majority voting interest.
Under FIN 46, entities are required to be consolidated by enterprises
that lack majority voting interest when equity investors of those
entities have insignificant capital at risk or they lack voting rights,
the obligation to absorb expected losses, or the right to receive
expected returns. Entities identified with these characteristics
are called variable interest entities and the interests that enterprises
have in these entities are called variable interests. These interests can
derive from certain guarantees, leases, loans or other arrangements that
result in risks and rewards that are disproportionate to the voting
interests in the entities.
The provisions of FIN 46 must be immediately applied for variable interest
entities created after January 31, 2003. For variable interest entities
created before February 1, 2003, FIN 46 must be adopted in the first
reporting period beginning after June 15, 2003.
There have been no variable interest entities created after
January 31, 2003 in which the corporation has an interest. The corporation
is reviewing its financial arrangements entered into before
February 1, 2003 to identify any that might qualify as variable interest
entities. There is a reasonable possibility that certain joint ventures in
which the corporation has an interest might be variable interest entities.
These joint ventures are operating entities and the other equity investors
are third parties independent from the corporation. The corporation's
share of net income of these entities is included in the consolidated
statement of income. The variable interests arise primarily because of
certain guarantees extended by the corporation to the joint ventures.
These guarantees are disclosed in note 7 beginning on page 9.
The corporation does not expect any impact on net income if it is
required to consolidate any of these possible variable interest entities
because it already is recording its share of net income of these entities.
The impact to the balance sheet would be an increase in both assets and
liabilities, estimated to be in the range of $500 million to $750 million
(less than one-half of 1 percent of total assets). However, there would be
no change to the calculation of return on average capital employed because
the corporation already includes its share of joint venture debt in the
determination of average capital employed.
6. Merger of Exxon Corporation and Mobil Corporation
On November 30, 1999, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Exxon Corporation
merged with Mobil Corporation so that Mobil became a wholly-owned
subsidiary of Exxon (the "Merger"). At the same time, Exxon changed its
name to Exxon Mobil Corporation.
There were no merger related expenses in the first quarter of 2003
reflecting the completion of the merger related activities in 2002. In the
first quarter of 2002, merger related costs were $83 million before tax
($60 million after tax). The severance reserve balance at the end of the
first quarter of 2003 is expected to be expended mainly in 2003 and 2004.
The following table summarizes the activity in the severance reserve for
the three months ended March 31, 2003:

7. Litigation and Other Contingencies
A number of lawsuits, including class actions, were brought in various
courts against Exxon Mobil Corporation and certain of its subsidiaries
relating to the accidental release of crude oil from the tanker Exxon
Valdez in 1989. The vast majority of the claims have been resolved leaving
a few compensatory damages cases to be resolved. All of the punitive
damage claims were consolidated in the civil trial that began in May 1994.
In that trial, on September 24, 1996, the United States District Court for
the District of Alaska entered a judgment in the amount of $5 billion in
punitive damages to a class composed of all persons and entities who
asserted claims for punitive damages from the corporation as a result of
the Exxon Valdez grounding. ExxonMobil appealed the judgment. On
November 7, 2001, the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
vacated the punitive damage award as being excessive under the
Constitution and remanded the case to the District Court for it to
determine the amount of the punitive damage award consistent with the
Ninth Circuit's holding. On December 6, 2002, the District Court reduced
the punitive damages award from $5 billion to $4 billion. This case will
return to the Ninth Circuit for its determination. The corporation has
posted a $4.8 billion letter of credit.
On January 29, 1997, a settlement agreement was concluded resolving all
remaining matters between the corporation and various insurers arising
from the Valdez accident. Under terms of this settlement, ExxonMobil
received $480 million. Final income statement recognition of this
settlement continues to be deferred in view of uncertainty regarding the
ultimate cost to the corporation of the Valdez accident.
The ultimate cost to ExxonMobil from the lawsuits arising from the
Exxon Valdez grounding is not possible to predict and may not be
resolved for a number of years.
A dispute with a Dutch affiliate concerning an overlift of natural gas by
a German affiliate was resolved by payments by the German affiliate
pursuant to an arbitration award. The German affiliate had paid royalties
on the excess gas and recovered the royalties in 2001. The only
substantive issue remaining is the taxes payable on the final compensation
for the overlift. Resolution of this issue will not have a materially
adverse effect upon the corporation's operations or financial condition.
On December 19, 2000, a jury in Montgomery County, Alabama, returned a
verdict against the corporation in a contract dispute over royalties in
the amount of $87.69 million in compensatory damages and $3.42 billion in
punitive damages in the case of Exxon Corporation v. State of Alabama,
et al. The verdict was upheld by the trial court on May 4, 2001. On
December 20, 2002, the Alabama Supreme Court vacated the $3.5 billion jury
verdict. The decision sends the case back to a lower court for a new
trial. The ultimate outcome is not expected to have a materially adverse
effect upon the corporation's operations or financial condition.
On May 22, 2001, a state court jury in New Orleans, Louisiana, returned a
verdict against the corporation and three other entities in a case brought
by a landowner claiming damage to his property. The property had been
leased by the landowner to a company that performed pipe cleaning and
storage services for customers, including the corporation. The jury
awarded the plaintiff $56 million in compensatory damages (90 percent to
be paid by the corporation) and $1 billion in punitive damages (all to be
paid by the corporation). The damage related to the presence of naturally
occurring radioactive material (NORM) on the site resulting from pipe
cleaning operations. The award has been upheld at the trial court.
ExxonMobil has appealed the judgment to the Louisiana Fourth Circuit Court
of Appeals and believes that the judgment should
-9-
be set aside or substantially reduced on factual and constitutional
grounds. The ultimate outcome is not expected to have a materially adverse
effect upon the corporation's operations or financial condition.
The U.S. Tax Court has decided the issue with respect to the pricing of
crude oil purchased from Saudi Arabia for the years 1979-1981 in favor of
the corporation. This decision is subject to appeal. Certain other issues
for the years 1979-1993 remain pending before the Tax Court. The ultimate
resolution of these issues is not expected to have a materially adverse
effect upon the corporation's operations or financial condition.
Claims for substantial amounts have been made against ExxonMobil and
certain of its consolidated subsidiaries in other pending lawsuits, the
outcome of which is not expected to have a materially adverse effect upon
the corporation's operations or financial condition.
The corporation and certain of its consolidated subsidiaries were
contingently liable at March 31, 2003, for $3.4 billion, primarily
relating to guarantees for notes, loans and performance under contracts.
This included $0.8 billion representing guarantees of non-U.S. excise
taxes and customs duties of other companies, entered into as a normal
business practice, under reciprocal arrangements. Also included in this
amount were guarantees by consolidated affiliates of $2.2 billion,
representing ExxonMobil's share of obligations of certain equity companies.
Additionally, the corporation and its affiliates have numerous long-term
sales and purchase commitments in their various business activities, all
of which are expected to be fulfilled with no adverse consequences
material to the corporation's operations or financial condition. The
corporation's outstanding unconditional purchase obligations at
March 31, 2003 were similar to those at the prior year-end period.
Unconditional purchase obligations as defined by accounting standards are
those long-term commitments that are noncancelable or cancelable only
under certain conditions, and that third parties have used to secure
financing for the facilities that will provide the contracted goods or
services.
The operations and earnings of the corporation and its affiliates
throughout the world have been, and may in the future be affected
from time to time in varying degree by political developments and laws
and regulations, such as forced divestiture of assets; restrictions
on production, imports and exports; price controls; tax increases
and retroactive tax claims; expropriation of property; cancellation of
contract rights and environmental regulations. Both the likelihood of
such occurrences and their overall effect upon the corporation vary
greatly from country to country and are not predictable.

in the All Other line, are now shown in the U.S. upstream for coal and
non-U.S. upstream for electric power. Earnings from the coal and minerals
businesses divested in 2002, reported as discontinued operations, are
included in the All Other line. Earnings and revenues for prior periods
have been reclassified to reflect these 2002 events consistent with current
period reporting.

REVIEW OF FIRST QUARTER 2003 RESULTS
Exxon Mobil Corporation estimated net income of $7,040 million ($1.05 per
share) in the first quarter of 2003, an increase of $4,950 million from the
first quarter of 2002. Net income included a $550 million positive impact from
the required adoption of FAS 143 relating to accounting for asset retirement
obligations. Net income also included a one-time gain of $1,700 million in the
non-U.S. upstream from the transfer of shares in Ruhrgas AG, a German gas
transmission company. The Ruhrgas shares were acquired by E.ON AG in March
2003.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2003 totaled $63,780 million compared with
$43,393 million in 2002. In the first quarter, ExxonMobil continued its active
investment program, spending $3,496 million on capital and exploration
projects, compared with $2,974 million last year, reflecting continued growth
in upstream spending.
First quarter earnings were strong and improved in all parts of the business.
Capex continued to grow consistent with our long-term investment plans. Asset
management steps continued to produce positive results.
Upstream earnings, including the Ruhrgas gain, were a record $5,693 million, an
increase of $3,604 million from first quarter 2002 results reflecting higher
realizations on sales of crude oil and natural gas. Average crude prices for
the quarter were at historical highs reflecting the temporary effects of the
national strike in Venezuela and civil unrest in Nigeria as well as market
speculation on the impacts from war in Iraq. Natural gas prices were higher
primarily due to cold weather in the United States. Both crude and natural gas
prices fell during March and are significantly lower thus far in the second
quarter. On an oil-equivalent basis, production increased 2 percent excluding
the effects of the national strike in Venezuela, lower entitlements caused by
higher prices and changes in OPEC quotas. Actual oil-equivalent production,
including these impacts, was flat. Plans for long-term capacity increases
remain on track as reflected by higher capital spending.
Downstream earnings were $723 million, an increase of $751 million from last
year's very weak first quarter, reflecting improved industry-wide conditions.
Refining and marketing margins were higher in most areas worldwide. Chemicals
earnings of $287 million were up $155 million from last year's first quarter.
Earnings benefited from record volumes, which were up 4 percent from last year.
During the quarter, the corporation acquired 35 million shares at a gross cost
of $1,191 million to offset the dilution associated with benefit plans and to
reduce common stock outstanding.
OTHER COMMENTS ON FIRST QUARTER 2003 COMPARED TO FIRST QUARTER 2002
Upstream earnings, including the $1,700 million Ruhrgas gain, were $5,693
million, an increase of $3,604 million from the first quarter 2002 reflecting
higher crude oil and natural gas realizations. Liquids production of 2,506 kbd
(thousands of barrels per day) decreased from 2,541 kbd in the first quarter of
2002. Higher production in Nigeria and Canada, and reduced OPEC quota
restrictions in Abu Dhabi, were more than offset by supply disruptions in
Venezuela, lower entitlements and natural field declines in mature areas.
Excluding the strike-related effects in Venezuela and entitlement/quota
impacts, liquids production was flat in the first quarter versus last year.
First quarter natural gas production increased to 12,048 mcfd (millions of
cubic feet per day), compared with 11,740 mcfd last year. Higher
weather-related demand in Europe more than offset natural field decline in
mature areas.
-18-
Earnings from U.S. upstream operations were $1,259 million, up $811 million.
Non-U.S. upstream earnings of $4,434 million were $2,793 million higher than
last year's first quarter including the $1,700 million Ruhrgas gain.
Downstream earnings of $723 million, representing about 2 cents per gallon,
increased $751 million from the first quarter of last year reflecting the
recovery in worldwide refining and marketing margins from very weak conditions.
Petroleum product sales were 7,861 kbd, 186 kbd higher than last year's first
quarter.
U.S. downstream earnings were $174 million, up $160 million due to higher
refining and marketing margins. Non-U.S. downstream earnings of $549 million
were $591 million higher than last year's first quarter. In addition to margin
effects, non-U.S. downstream results benefited from the absence of negative
foreign exchange effects in Argentina in the first quarter of 2002.
Chemicals earnings of $287 million were up $155 million from the same quarter a
year ago due to higher volumes, improved non-U.S. margins and favorable foreign
exchange effects. Prime product sales of 7,000 kt (thousands of metric tons)
were up 280 kt, reflecting higher demand in key commodity businesses across
most regions.
Corporate and financing expenses of $213 million increased $143 million mainly
due to higher U.S. pension costs.
MERGER OF EXXON CORPORATION AND MOBIL CORPORATION
On November 30, 1999, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Exxon Corporation merged
with Mobil Corporation so that Mobil became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Exxon
(the "Merger"). At the same time, Exxon changed its name to Exxon Mobil
Corporation.
There were no merger related expenses in the first quarter of 2003 reflecting
the completion of the merger related activities in 2002. In the first quarter
of 2002, merger related costs were $83 million before tax ($60 million after
tax). The severance reserve balance at the end of the first quarter of 2003 is
expected to be expended mainly in 2003 and 2004. The following table summarizes
the activity in the severance reserve for the three months ended
March 31, 2003:

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Net cash generation before financing activities was $7,911 million in the first
three months of 2003 versus $3,387 million in the same period last year.
Operating activities provided net cash of $8,646 million, an increase of $4,022
million from the prior year, influenced by higher net income.
Investing activities used net cash of $735 million, compared to a net use of
$1,237 million in the prior year, reflecting higher proceeds from asset
divestments and higher additions to property, plant, and equipment.
-19-
Net income in 2003 included a one-time gain of $1,700 million from the transfer
of ExxonMobil's interests in the Ruhrgas AG shares. The shares were valued at
approximately $2.6 billion. In the third quarter of 2002, a loan of $1.5
billion was received in connection with the restructuring of BEB Erdgas und
Erdoel GmbH that allowed for the transfer of the Ruhrgas shares. The remainder
was received upon completion of the share transaction and has been reported as
proceeds from sales of investments in the current period. The "All other items
- -- net" line in the current year includes an adjustment of the non-cash net
income gain included in first quarter 2003 for the cash received and reported
in the third quarter of 2002 and the cash received and reported in cash flows
from investing activities this quarter.
Net cash used in financing activities was $2,944 million in the first
quarter of 2003 versus $3,284 million in the same quarter last year
reflecting a lower level of debt reductions and purchases of ExxonMobil
stock in the current year.
During the first quarter of 2003, Exxon Mobil Corporation purchased 35 million
shares of its common stock for the treasury at a gross cost of $1,191 million.
These purchases were to offset shares issued in conjunction with company
benefit plans and programs and to reduce the number of shares outstanding.
Shares outstanding were reduced from 6,700 million at the end of 2002 to 6,679
million at the end of the first quarter 2003. Purchases may be made in both the
open market and through negotiated transactions, and may be discontinued at any
time.
Revenue for the first quarter of 2003 totaled $63,780 million compared to
$43,393 million in the first quarter 2002 reflecting significantly higher
prices.
Income and other taxes for the first quarter of $18,684 million were up
$4,121 million compared to last year. First quarter 2003 income tax expense
was $3,388 million and the effective tax rate was 36.4 percent, compared to
$1,265 million and 41.9 percent, respectively, in the prior year quarter.
The increase in income tax expense reflects higher pre-tax income. Excluding
the income tax effects of the gain on the Ruhrgas share transfer, the
effective rate in the current quarter was similar to the prior year quarter.
During both periods, the corporation continued to benefit from the favorable
resolution of tax related issues.
Capital and exploration expenditures were $3,496 million in the first quarter
2003 compared to $2,974 million in last year's first quarter. In 2003,
capital and exploration investments are expected to be about $14 billion,
similar to 2002 and reflecting the continued spending on ExxonMobil's large
portfolio of upstream projects.
Total debt of $10.7 billion at March 31, 2003 was comparable to year-end
2002. The corporation's debt to total capital ratio was 11.5 percent at the
end of the first quarter of 2003, compared to 12.2 percent at year-end 2002.
Although the corporation issues long-term debt from time to time and
maintains a revolving commercial paper program, internally generated funds
cover the majority of its financial requirements.
Litigation and other contingencies are discussed in note 7 to the unaudited
condensed consolidated financial statements. There are no events or
uncertainties known to management beyond those already included in reported
financial information that would indicate a material change in future
operating results or future financial condition.
-20-
The corporation, as part of its ongoing asset management program, continues
to evaluate its mix of assets for potential upgrade. Because of the ongoing
nature of this program, dispositions will continue to be made from time to
time which will result in either gains or losses.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Statements in this discussion regarding expectations, plans and future
events or conditions are forward-looking statements. Actual future
results; production growth; financing sources; the resolution of
contingencies; the effect of changes in prices, interest rates and other
market conditions; and environmental and capital and exploration
expenditures could differ materially depending on a number of factors,
such as the outcome of commercial negotiations; changes in the supply of
and demand for crude oil, natural gas and petroleum and petrochemical
products; and other factors discussed above and discussed under the
caption "Factors Affecting Future Results" in Item 1 of ExxonMobil's 2002
Form 10-K.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Information about market risks for the three months ended
March 31, 2003 does not differ materially from that discussed
under Item 7A of the registrant's Annual Report on Form 10-K for
2002.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
As indicated in the certifications on pages 26 through 28 of this
report, the corporation's principal executive officer, principal
accounting officer and principal financial office have evaluated the
corporation's disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2003.
Based on that evaluation, these officers have concluded that the
corporation's disclosure controls and procedures are effective for the
purpose of ensuring that material information required to be in this
quarterly report is made known to them by others on a timely basis.
There have not been changes in the corporation's internal controls or
in other factors that could significantly affect these controls
subsequent to the date of this evaluation.
PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) has issued a
Notice of Enforcement Action dated March 27, 2003, alleging violations
of certain reporting, calculation, and documentation requirements
under the Texas Clean Air Act and related implementing and operating
permit regulations in connection with upset events at the
corporation's Means Gas Conditioning Facility in Andrews County,
Texas. These administrative issues have been corrected. The Notice
also alleges that emissions associated with the identified events
violated the facility's air permit. The corporation does not believe
the events identified in the Notice constitute permit violations. TCEQ
has offered to settle the alleged violations for $177,100 but
negotiations are ongoing.
The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MDEP) has
issued a Notice of Enforcement received on January 22, 2003, alleging
that certain reports relating to remediation activities at certain
service stations and distribution terminals in Massachusetts were not
submitted within the deadlines provided under the Massachusetts
Contingency Plan. The corporation believes a penalty is not warranted
in this matter. The MDEP has indicated it may seek aggregate
penalties in excess of $500,000 but discussions with the agency are at
an early stage.
Refer to the relevant portions of note 7 on pages 9 and 10 of this
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for further information on legal
proceedings.
