 A. Noto said, "Mobil's significant increase in operating income was primarily due to higher income in our Chemical businesses as a result of improved industry conditions and better operating performance, including lower costs following restructuring.

COMPARISON OF SECOND QUARTER 1995 WITH SECOND QUARTER 1994

The following comments address operating income of the major business segments during the second quarter of 1995, compared with the same quarter of 1994: o Exploration and Producing income of $375 million was $40 million higher. In the United States, income was $109 million, up $30 million, as higher crude oil prices and lower operating expenses Operating expenses

-- Marketing and Refining income of $240 million was $16 million higher. Income in the United States Income in the United States is measured by the United States Department of Commerce either by household or individual. The differences between household and personal income is considerable since 42% of households, the majority of those in the top two quintiles with incomes  was $87 million, up $13 million, reflecting lower operating expenses, higher sales volumes, and increased lube income, as well as improved industry margins. These improvements were largely offset by higher costs this year associated with reformulated gasoline gasoline or petrol, light, volatile mixture of hydrocarbons for use in the internal-combustion engine and as an organic solvent, obtained primarily by fractional distillation and "cracking" of petroleum, but also obtained from natural gas, by  production.

International income was $153 million, up $3 million. Benefits from ongoing business initiatives, including expense savings in Europe, as well as the increased contribution from the Singapore Singapore (sĭng`gəpôr, sĭng`ə–, sĭng'gəpôr`), officially Republic of Singapore, republic (2005 est. pop. 4,426,000), 240 sq mi (625 sq km).  refinery upgrade, offset weaker refining margins in all enclaves. In Europe, development of a common business system was completed, which positions us to realize further benefits from using one unified system.

-- Chemical income of $186 million was a record quarter. This was up $147 million, reflecting better industry fundamentals in most businesses, particularly polyethylene polyethylene (pŏl'ēĕth`əlēn), widely used plastic. It is a polymer of ethylene, CH2=CH2, having the formula (-CH2-CH2-)n  resin resin, any of a class of amorphous solids or semisolids. Resins are found in nature and are chiefly of vegetable origin. They are typically light yellow to dark brown in color; tasteless; odorless or faintly aromatic; translucent or transparent; brittle, fracturing . Income also benefitted from the Singapore petrochemicals complex, and from business initiatives, notably in plastics fabricating and petrochemicals.

-- Corporate and Other expense of $22 million was $9 million lower, mainly due to timing of expenses.

-- Net Financing Expense of $73 million was $19 million higher, principally reflecting higher average effective interest rates.

COMPARISON OF SIX MONTHS 1995 WITH SIX MONTHS 1994

Mobil's estimated first half 1995 reported net income was $815 million, compared with $733 million for the same period of 1994 (excluding the effect of last years $680 million charge for the change in accounting principle related to inventories). First half 1995 net income included special charges of $527 million, primarily for the realignment of worldwide staff support services and restructuring of marketing and refining operations in the United States and Europe. Net special charges of $315 million for North American property writedowns and Chemical restructuring were included in the comparable period of 1994.

Excluding special items and the accounting change, first half 1995 operating income of $1,342 million was up $294 million, or 28%, from the comparable period of 1994. This improvement was mainly due to higher Chemical income, up $306 million, reflecting better margins and operating performance. In petroleum operations, income was essentially flat, despite significantly weaker international refining margins and North American natural gas prices, partly offset by stronger worldwide crude oil prices. The net unfavorable impact of these industry fundamentals was wholly offset by benefits from our business initiatives. In particular, expenses in worldwide Marketing and Refining and U.S. Exploration and Producing were lower, and worldwide lube income in Marketing and Refining was stronger.

Capital and Exploration Expenditures for the second quarter of 1995 were estimated at $960 million, an increase of $13 million from the comparable period last year. For the first six months of 1995, worldwide capital and exploration expenditures were estimated at $1,778 million, compared with $1,665 million for the year earlier period.

Mobil's estimated Return on Average Shareholders' Equity Shareholders' Equity

A firms' total assets minus its total liabilities. Equivalently, it is share capital plus retained earnings minus treasury shares. Shareholders' equity is the amount by which a company is financed through common and preferred shares.
 for the twelve months ended June 30, 1995, was 10.7%, compared with 10.4% for 1994 (excluding the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle). Estimated Return on Average Capital Employed Capital Employed

1. The total amount of capital used for the acquisition of profits.

2. The value of all the assets employed in a business.

3. Fixed assets plus working capital.

4. Total assets less current liabilities.
 for the twelve months ended June 30, 1995, was 8.6%, compared with 8.4% for 1994 (excluding the cumulative effect of the change in accounting principle).

Mobil's estimated Debt to Capitalization capitalization n. 1) the act of counting anticipated earnings and expenses as capital assets (property, equipment, fixtures) for accounting purposes. 2) the amount of anticipated net earnings which hypothetically can be used for conversion into capital assets.  Ratio was 30% at June 30, 1995 and 31% at December December: see month.  31, 1994.

Common Stock Dividends were $.925 per share in the second quarter of 1995 and $1.775 per share for the first half of 1995, up 7.5 cents from the comparable periods last year. -0-
