Exxon earned $8.6 billion, or $1.92 per share, for the three months ended Sept. 30. A year earlier the Spring, Texas-based company earned $9.07 billion, or $2.25 per share.

Analysts surveyed by Zacks Investment Research were calling for earnings of $1.91 per share.Revenue totaled $90.02 billion, falling short of Wall Street's estimate of $93.51 billion.
