Supermajor ExxonMobil lost its spot atop the list of the 500 most valuable US companies ranked by Fortune magazine despite posting the second highest annual profit in US history in 2012.
The Irving, Texas-based refiner and explorer, with annual revenues of $449.9 billion, lost the crown to retailing behemoth Wal-Mart, which posted $469.2 billion in revenues for 2012.
The oil giant, however, crushed the revenue champion in annual profits; ExxonMobil made a staggering $44.88 billion in profits, dwarfing Wal-Mart's $17 billion.............California-based Chevron came in a distant third - as it has for several years in a row - on revenues of $233.9 billion and profits of $26.18 billion.
