Highlights

Adjusted results > Adjusted operating profit of the first half: €0.77 billion, down by 75% due to lower commodity prices and margins with a negative effect of €2.8 billion, the Val d'Agri shutdown and other non-recurring items the G&P segment with a loss of €0.5 billion, partly offset by production growth in other areas, cost efficiencies and a reduced cost base, mainly in the E&P segment, amounting to €1 billion.

Adjusted net result: a loss of €0.27 billion. Net result: a loss of €0.83 billion (a loss of €1.24 billion including the loss recognized in the discontinued operations to align the book value of the residual Eni's interest in Saipem to its fair value at loss of control).

Adjusted EBIT > All mid and downstream business segments reported positive EBIT.

Cash flow > €3.1 billion. Proceeds from disposals of €0.95 billion comprised a 12.503% interest in Saipem and the completion of the divestment of the available-for-sale investment in Snam. Main cash outs were the payment of Eni's final dividend for 2015 (€1.44 billion), capital expenditure (€4.88 billion) and the amount cashed out to subscribe the share capital increase of Saipem (€1.07 billion). As of June 30, 2016, net borrowings was €13.81 billion, down by €3.06 billion due to the closing of the Saipem transaction with the reimbursement of intercompany financing receivables owed by Saipem to Eni (€5.8 billion).

Leverage > As of June 30, 2016, leverage was 0.26, down from 0.29 at December 31, 2015.

Capex optimization and self-financing > Confirmed a 20% y-o-y reduction at constant exchange rates. Organic cash coverage of capex confirmed at a Brent scenario of approximately 50\$/bl in 2016.

Interim dividend > In light of the financial results achieved in the first half of 2016 and the projected results of the Company's industrial plan, the interim dividend proposal to the Board of Directors on September 15, 2016 will amount to €0.40 per share.

New projects > Confirmed schedules and costs of ongoing development projects which will fuel future production growth higher than 5% in 2017 and will add 500 kboe/d of new production in the plan period.

Hydrocarbon production > 1.734 million boe/d in the first half of 2016, up by 0.5% from the first half of 2015. When excluding the impact of the shutdown at the Val d'Agri center and price effects in PSAs, production grew by 1.3%.

Start-ups > Achieved 5 out of the 6 main start-ups scheduled for 2016, among which was the Goliat oilfield in the Barents Sea. Confirmed contribution from new start-ups and ramp-ups of approximately 290 kboe/d for FY2016, including production of the Nooros project in Egypt, which started-up with record time-to-market

Exploration successes > In the first half of 2016 Eni continued its track record of exploration successes with 550 million boe of fresh resource additions, mainly near field. Upped to 600 million boe of new resources the initial guidance of 400 million boe for the full year.

Goliat > Started up the Goliat field (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in the Barents Sea. Achieved the scheduled production plateau of 100 kboe/d (65 kboe/d net to Eni).

Nooros > Excellent time-to-market of the Nooros project in Egypt which started up in just 10 months from the declaration of commercial discovery of July 2015. Production reached 65 kboe/d (33 kboe/d net to Eni). The success in developing the Egyptian field confirms the sustainability of Eni shift in exploration towards near-term, near-field opportunities, which, thanks to existing infrastructures, allow fast development of incremental discoveries and value generation.

Zohr > Sanctioned by the Egyptian Authorities the development plan of the Zohr discovery, where production start-up is expected by the end of 2017. Completed the drilling of wells and successfully performed the production test, which confirmed the mineral potential of discovery.

Mozambique > Authorities approved the development of the first development phase of Coral, targeting production of 5 Tcf of gas.

Safety > In the first half of 2016 the trend in safety improvement continued, reporting a recordable injury frequency rate down by 11.1% from the same period of 2015. There was a 27.5% improvement for employees while for contractors it was 4.2%. This positive performance leveraged on inspections on sites, roadshow on safety issues, activities carried out at the Safety Competence Center in Gela as well as specific training projects and programs to raise awareness of HSEQ issues.

Climate change > In May 2016, Eni launched a new and original model of integration between its traditional business and power from renewable sources. The model envisages fulfilment of power generation projects with zero emissions, located near Eni's plants and areas of operation, in order to make the most of all possible logistic, contractual and commercial synergies with the company's traditional activities. They will also enable abandoned industrial areas to be revived and enhanced. This new Eni's strategy aiming at energy transition towards a low-carbon future is based on the realization of pilot projects leveraging on the application of photovoltaic technologies in certain sites in Italy, Egypt and Pakistan.

Emissioni GHG > GHG emission recorded in the first half of 2016 declined by 5.8% compared to the first half of 2015. This trend reflected lower emissions from combustion (down 1 million tonnes), reduced methane emissions (down 0.2 million tonnes) leveraging on initiatives concluded in the second half of 2015 to contain fugitive emissions as well as energy efficiency projects. The trend of GHG emission index compared to operated gross hydrocarbon of the upstream segment remain positive with a reduction of 8.9%. This is in line with the 2016 full year target.

Operative oil spills > Oil spills due to operations (97% related to E&P segment) declined by 2.8% from the first half of 2015 and the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment reported a significant improvement with the overall volume spilled reducing to 19 barrels in the first half of 2016 from 100 barrels in the first half of 2015. In Nigeria, activities are underway to replace certain cases covering holes caused by sabotages, which are a potential weakness.

Mineral right portfolio and exploration activities

In the first half of 2016, Eni performed its operations in 42 countries located in five continents. As of June 30, 2016, Eni's mineral right portfolio consisted of 800 exclusive or shared rights for exploration and development activities for a total acreage of 339,946 square kilometers net to Eni (342,708 square kilometers net to Eni as of December 31, 2015). In the first half of 2016, changes in total net acreage mainly derived from: (i) new leases mainly in Ghana, Ireland, Norway and the United Kingdom for a total acreage of approximately 6,100 square kilometers; (ii) the total relinquishment of licenses mainly in Australia, Gabon, Ireland, Liberia, Norway and the United States covering an acreage of approximately 6,500 square kilometers; (iii) partial relinquishment in Portugal or interest reduction for approximately 2,400 square kilometers.

In the first half of 2016, a total of 8 new exploratory wells were drilled (4.8 of which represented Eni's share), as compared to 14 exploratory wells drilled in the first half of 2015 (9.2 of which represented Eni's share).

Oil and gas production

In the first half of 2016, Eni's hydrocarbon production1 was 1.734 million boe/d, slightly increased from the first half of 2015 (up by 0.5%). Excluding the price effects reported in Production Sharing Agreements and other effects, as well as production shutdown in the Val d'Agri district (down 33 kboe/d), production increased by 1.3%. New field start-ups and continuing production ramp-ups at fields started in 2015 mainly in Venezuela, Norway and Angola, as well as higher production in Iraq were partly offset

1 From January 1, 2016, as part of a regular reviewing procedure, Eni has updated the conversion rate of gas to 5,458 cubic feet of gas equals 1 barrel of oil (it was 5,492 cubic feet of gas per barrel in previous reporting periods). This update reflected changes in Eni's gas properties that took place in the last three years and was assessed by collecting data on the heating power of gas in all Eni's gas fields currently on stream. The effect of this update on production expressed in boe for the first half of 2016 was 5 kboe/d. Other per-boe indicators were only marginally affected by the update (e.g. realization prices, costs per boe) and also negligible was the impact on depletion charges. Other oil companies may use different conversion rates.

by planned facilities downtime, mainly the United Kingdom, Kazakhstan and Libya and mature fields decline. The share of oil and natural gas produced outside Italy was 93% (90% in the first half of 2015).

Liquids production (871 kbbl/d) decreased by 11 kbbl/d, or 1.2%, mainly due to production shutdown in the Val d'Agri district and planned facilities downtime. These negative effects were partly offset by startups/production ramp-ups in Norway and Angola as well as increased production in Iraq.

Natural gas production (4,713 mmcf/d) increased by 77 mmcf/d, or 1.5%, from the first half of 2015, due to higher production in Venezuela partly offset by planned facilities downtime and mature fields decline.

Oil and gas production sold amounted to 299 mmboe. The 16.7 mmboe difference over production (315.7 mmboe) mainly reflected volumes of natural gas consumed in operations (14.9 mmboe), changes in inventory levels and other variations.

Main exploration and development projects

Italy

In the Val d'Agri concession (Eni's interest 60.77%) the development plan is progressing in line with the commitments agreed with the Basilicata Region, particularly in 2016: (i) the Environmental Monitoring Plan is being implemented. This project represents a benchmark in terms of environmental protection for which Eni implements best practices in environmental protection by means of the Action Plan for Biodiversity in Val d'Agri; and (ii) programs to support a cultural and socio-economic development in the area are in progress.

As part of a penal proceeding about alleged environmental crimes in running operations at the Viggiano oil center in the Val d'Agri complex, on March 31, 2016, an Italian public prosecutor resolved to put under seizure certain plants and facilities functional to the production activity (two storage units for the treatment of water layer and the Costa Molina 2 re-injection well) which, as a consequence, has been shut down. The shutdown has been affecting around 60 kboe/d net to Eni.

On June 1, 2016, the Italian jurisdictional authorities granted Eni a temporary repeal of the seizure in order to allow the Company to perform certain plant upgrading. Those corrective measures, which do not alter the plant set up, are intended to address the claims made by the public prosecutor. The in-charge department of the Italian Ministry of Economic Development has duly authorized Eni to perform the works. Eni has executed the plant upgrading and has completed it by July 8, 2016. Once the public prosecutor verifies the correct execution of the plant upgrading, it is anticipated that it will definitively repeal the plant seizure (for further information see legal proceedings on page 102).

Other main development activities in the Adriatic Sea concerned: (i) maintenance and optimization of production, mainly at the Morena and Cervia fields; and (ii) start-up of the Clara NW development project.

Following the Memorandum of Understanding for the Gela area, signed with the Ministry of Economic Development in November 2014, Eni started preparatory study on the Argo Cluster offshore development project. In addition, the Memorandum includes certain Eni's projects to support sustainable development in the area with an overall expense of €32 million. Three implementing agreements were signed: one of the was already completed and concerned the construction of an exhibition hall at the Gela Archaeological Museum.

Rest of Europe

Norway In the first half of 2016, Eni was awarded the following exploration licences: (i) PL 128D (Eni's interest 11.5%) in the Norwegian Sea; (ii) PL 816 (Eni operator with a 70% interest) in the Norwegian section of the North Sea; and (iii) PL 229D (Eni operator with a 65% interest) and PL 849 (Eni's interest 30%) in the Barents Sea.

In March 2016, production start-up was achieved at the Goliat oilfield (Eni operator with a 65% interest) in the Barents Sea. Production has achieved the full-field plateau at 100 kbbl/d (65 kbbl/d net to Eni). The field is estimated to contain reserves amounting to approximately 180 mmbbl. The project includes a subsea system consisting of 22 wells linked to the largest cylindrical FPSO in the world by subsea production and injection flowlines. The use of well-advanced technologies, electricity supply provided to the platform from the mainland and the re-injection of produced water and natural gas into reservoir as well as zero gas flaring during production activities allow to minimize environmental impact.

Other main activities concerned: (i) the drilling of infilling wells to support production at the Ekofisk and Eldfisk fields in the PL018 (Eni's interest 12.39%) in the Norwegian section of the North Sea; and (ii) maintenance and optimization of production, mainly at the Asgard (Eni's interest 14.82%), Heidrun (Eni's interest 5.17%) and Norne Outside (Eni's interest 11.5%) fields in the Norwegian Sea.

North Africa

Algeria Development and optimization activities progressed at the MLE-CAFC production fields (Eni operator with a 75% interest), by means of construction and infilling activities as well as production optimization. The project includes an additional oil phase with a start-up expected in 2017, targeting a production plateau of more than 30 kboe/d net to Eni.

Other activities concerned infilling activities and production optimization at the operated Rod field (Eni's interest 66%), also by means of the application of the Enhanced Oil Recovery WAG (Water Alternate Gas injection) technology.

Egypt Exploration activities yielded positive results with the near-field discoveries: (i) the Nidoco North 1X exploration well in the Abu Madi West concession (Eni's interest 75%) in the Nile Delta. This new discovery, already put into production, and the Nidoco North West 4 development well allowed to achieve a production ramp-up at approximately 65 kbbl/d (33 kbbl/d net to Eni) at the Nooros field, just 10 months after the discovery that took place in July 2015; (ii) the Baltim South West 1X well in the Baltim South concession (Eni operator with a 50% interest), in the Nile Delta conventional offshore nearby the Nooros production field. Eni is already assessing the options for the fast track development. This new discovery is in line with Eni's exploration strategy of focusing on near-field incremental activities and nearby to fields already under development for a fast-track development.

In February 2016, the Egyptian Ministry of Petroleum and Mineral Resources approved to award Eni the Zohr Development Lease that allows the start-up of the development program at the Zohr gas field in the Shorouk operated licence (Eni's interest 100%). The first gas is expected at the end of 2017. Eni successfully performed the first production test of the Zohr 2X well, the first delineation well. The well yielded up to 46 mmcf/d and confirmed the quality of the discovery. In addition, the Zohr 3X delineation well and the Zohr 4X development well were already successfully drilled in the northern section and confirmed the mineral potential of discovery. Moreover, the onshore gas treatment plant construction was started and the bids for the offshore activities were launched and nearly completed.

Sales of natural gas in the first half of 2016 amounted to 45.25 bcm, reporting a decrease of 2.76 bcm or 5.7% from the first half of 2015, on the back of increasing competitive pressure and slight demand recovery. Sales included Eni's own consumption, Eni's share of sales made by equity-accounted entities and Exploration & Production sales in Europe and in the Gulf of Mexico.

Sales in Italy decreased to 19.42 bcm due to lower sales to hub (Italian gas exchange and spot markets) as well as lower volumes sold to the residential segment due to unfavorable weather conditions compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. Sales to importers in Italy slightly decreased by 0.12 bcm reflecting a lower availability of Libyan gas.

Sales in the European markets amounted to 19.82 bcm, declining by 1.9% from the same period of the previous year due to lower sales in Turkey, for lower sales to Botas, in France and the United Kingdom due to increasing competitive pressure as well as decreased volumes in Benelux due to lower hub sales. These negatives were partially offset by higher spot sales in Germany/Austria.

Sales in markets outside Europe decreased by 0.44 bcm to 2.41 bcm reflecting lower LNG volumes marketed in the Far East, due to the lack of contract renewal.

Direct sales of the Exploration & Production segment in the Northern Europe and the United States (1.48 bcm) decreased compared to the corresponding period of the previous year (1.60 bcm in the first half 2015) due to lower sales in the United Kingdom and in the United States, partially offset by higher sales marketed in Norway.

Refining

In the first half of 2016, Eni's refining throughputs in Europe were 12.09 mmtonnes, down by 1.41 mmtonnes or by 10.4% from the first half of 2015. On a homogeneous basis, when excluding the impact of the disposal of CRC refinery in Czech Republic finalized on April 30, 2015, refining throughputs reported a decrease of 5.3% compared to the first half of 2015.

Volumes processed in Italy were down by 5.7% due to lower availability of domestic crude oil driven by the shutdown of the Val d'Agri field, as well as, the other planned maintenance turnarounds.

The volumes processed outside Italy of 1.41 mmtonnes slightly decreased by 3%, net of the abovementioned disposal in Czech Republic.

Approximately 14% of processed crude volumes were supplied by Eni's Exploration & Production segment (down by 5 percentage points from 19% reported in the first half of 2015) due to the unavailability of equity production of Val d'Agri.

Barely unchanged the volumes of green feedstock processed at the Venice plant.

Retail sales in Italy

In the first half of 2016, retail sales in Italy amounted to 2.87 mmtonnes, were barely unchanged ktonnes from the first half of 2015. Eni's retail market share for the first half of 2016 was 24%, down by 0.5 percentage points from the corresponding period of 2015 (24.5%). This decrease referred mainly to lower sales in highway stations and dealer owned stations.

At June 30, 2016, Eni's retail network in Italy consisted of 4,421 service stations, barely unchanged from December 31, 2015 (4,420 service stations), resulting from the positive balance of acquisitions/releases of lease concessions (16 units) and the closing of 15 low throughput service stations.

Average throughput (746 kliters) slightly increased by 13 kliters from the first half of 2015 (733 kliters) due to effective marketing initiatives of rationalization.

Retail sales in the Rest of Europe

Retail sales in the rest of Europe of approximately 1.34 mmtonnes were barely unchanged from the corresponding period of 2015, when excluding the impact of the asset disposal in Eastern Europe occurred in July 2015.

At June 30, 2016, Eni's retail network in the rest of Europe consisted of 1,409 units, decreasing by 17 units from December 31, 2015, due to the service stations disposal in Slovenia, occurred in June 30, 2016.

Average throughput (1,117 kliters) slightly increased by 19 kliters compared to the first half of 2015.

Wholesale and other sales

Wholesale sales in Italy amounted to 3.85 mmtonnes, up by approximately 160 ktonnes or by 4.3% from the first half of the previous year, mainly due to higher volumes marketed of jet fuel, gasoil, fuel oil and lubricants partly offset by lower sales of bunkering and LPG.

Supplies of feedstock to the petrochemical industry (0.52 mmtonnes) decreased by 21.2% due to lower demand from industrial segment.

Wholesale sales in the rest of Europe were 1.50 mmtonnes, down by 7.9% from the first half of 2015 net of the above mentioned asset disposal.

Other sales in Italy and outside Italy (6.10 mmtonnes) decreased by approximately 0.74 mmtonnes or by 10.8%, mainly due to lower sales volumes to oil companies.

Petrochemical sales of 1,931 ktonnes slightly increased from the first half of 2015 (up 60 ktonnes, or up by 3.2%) mainly due to higher spot sales of olefins (in particular ethylene, up by 49%) and derivatives (up by 6.4%). Sales of elastomers increased by 5.6%. These effects were partially offset by lower sales of polyethylene (down by 14.1%) due to the unplanned standstills at Ragusa and Ferrara plants occurred in the first quarter and styrene (down by 6.9%) due to shutdown at EPS Mantova plant.

Petrochemical production of 2,898 ktonnes increased by 153 ktonnes (up by 5.6%). Major production increases occurred at the Brindisi site (up by 37.1%) and Dunkerque (up by 21.5%). These effects were partially offset by lower production registered at Ferrara (down by 23.3%) and Ragusa (down by 95.5%) due to the accidental standstill occurred at the beginning of 2016, at the polyethylene plants.

Capital expenditure

In the first half of 2016, capital expenditure in the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment amounted to €212 million and regarded mainly: (i) refining activity in Italy and outside Italy (€107 million) aiming fundamentally at plants improving, as well as initiatives in the field of health, security and environment; (ii) regulation compliance and stay in business initiatives in the refined product retail network in Italy and in the Rest of Europe (€33 million); (iii) a number of initiatives in the Chemicals segment (€72 million).

Financial review

Continuing and discontinued operations

Due to termination of negotiations with US-based SK hedge fund, to divest a 70% interest in Versalis SpA, as disclosed in the press release dated June 21, 2016, Eni's chemical business is no longer qualified as a disposal group held for sale. Therefore, Eni's consolidated accounts as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2016, have been prepared accounting this business as part of the continuing operations. Based on IFRS 5 provisions, in case a disposal group ceases to be classified as held for sale, management is required to amend financial statements retrospectively as if the disposal group has never been qualified as held for sale. Accordingly, the opening balance of the interim consolidated accounts 2016 has been amended to reinstate the criteria of the continuing use to evaluate Versalis. This adjustment to the Versalis evaluation increased the opening balance of Eni's consolidated net assets by €294 million and was neutral on the Group's net financial position. In presenting the Group's consolidated results, Versalis assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses have been recorded line-by-line in the Group accounts. Results of the comparative periods have been reclassified accordingly. In the Group segment information, Versalis results have been reported as part of the R&M and Chemical segment because a single manager is accountable for the performance at both operating segments and the two segments exhibit similar economic characteristics.

In relation to the Engineering & Construction segment classified as asset held for sale in the 2015 consolidated financial statements, on January 22, 2016 Eni closed the sale of a 12.503% stake in the entity to CDP Equity SpA, for a consideration of €463 million. Concurrently, a shareholder agreement between Eni and CDP Equity SpA entered into force, which established the joint control of the two parties over the target entity. Those transactions triggered loss of control of Eni over Saipem. Therefore, effective January 1, 2016, Eni has derecognized the assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses of the former subsidiary from the consolidated accounts. The retained interest of 30.55% in the former subsidiary has been recognized as an investment in an equity-accounted joint venture with an initial carrying amount aligned to the share price at the closing date of the transaction (€4.2 per share, equal to €564 million) recognizing a loss through profit of €441 million. This loss has been recognized in the Group consolidated accounts for the first half 2016 as part of gains and losses of the discontinued operations. Considering the share capital increase of Saipem, which was subscribed pro-quota by Eni at the same time as the aforementioned transactions (for an overall amount of €1,050 million), the initial carrying amount of the interest retained amounts to €1,614 million, which becomes the cost on initial recognition of the investment in Saipem for the subsequent application of equity accounting. Saipem reimbursed intercompany loans owed to Eni (€5,818 million as of December 31, 2015) by using the proceeds from the share capital increase and new credit facilities from third-party financing institutions.

In this interim report, adjusted results from continuing operations of the comparative periods of 2015 are reported on a standalone basis, thus excluding Saipem's results. A corresponding alternative performance measure has been presented for the net cash flow from operating activities. The net result of discontinued operations for the first quarter of 2016 and the first half of 2016 only comprised a loss recognized to align the book value of the Eni's residual interest in Saipem to its share price at January 22, 2016. This date marked the loss of control of Eni over Saipem, following the sale of a 12.503% interest to CDP Equity and the concurrent entering into force of the shareholder agreement between the parties. For further information, see the reconciliations and the explanatory notes furnished in the paragraph "Alternative performance measures" in the subsequent pages.

Profit and loss account

Net profit

In the first half of 2016 Eni reported a net loss from continuing operations of €829 million, with a steep decline from the €1,285 million net profit reported in the first half of 2015. The structural weakness of the oil market, oversupply and overcapacity headwinds in the European gas and refining sectors have negatively affected the Group's performance, eroding results from operations and cash flow.

The operating performance was lower by €3,050 million to €325 million and reflected sharply lower revenues of the E&P segment due to a prolonged downturn in commodity prices (the Brent benchmark was down by 31.4%, also Italian gas prices fell), the Val d'Agri production shutdown and a declining performance in the G&P segment. The negative impact of the trading environment on profitability and cash generation was partly offset by cost efficiencies, optimization gains and production growth.

Net loss for the first half was negatively impacted by the recognition of a net tax expense amounting to €939 million, which reduction y-o-y was proportionally much lower than the reduction in pre-tax earnings. This circumstance reflected the impact of a deteriorating price scenario in the upstream segment, which resulted in a large portion of the segment's taxable profit being earned in PSA contracts, which, although more resilient in a low-price environment, nonetheless bear higher-than-average rates of tax and a reduced capacity to recognize deferred tax assets on losses incurred in the period.

Group net loss pertaining to Eni's shareholders amounted to €1,242 million, which included a loss in the discontinued operations of €413 million taken to align the book value of the residual Eni's interest in Saipem to its fair value at the date of loss of control (January 22, 2016).

In the first half of 2016, adjusted operating profit was €771 million, down by 75% from the first half of 2015. This negative trend was driven by a declining operating performance in the Exploration & Production segment (down by €2,215 million, or 83.1%) due to sharply lower commodity prices and the Val d'Agri shutdown in the second quarter of 2016, partially offset by higher production in other areas, cost efficiencies (lower opex) and decrease in DD&A. The Gas & Power segment reported a negative performance (down by €269 million) reflecting lower one-off benefits associated to contract renegotiations, other non-recurring events and lower margins on LNG sales, partially offset by cost reduction and optimizations. In spite of a less favourable trading environment year-on-year, the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment recorded positive results (up by 47.3% from the first half of 2015) due to optimization and efficiency initiatives.

The main y-o-y headwinds faced by the Group operating results were lower commodity prices and margins with a negative effect of €2.8 billion, the Val d'Agri shutdown and non-recurring items, recoreded in 2015,in the G&P segment (down by €0.5 billion), partly offset by production growth in other areas, cost efficiencies and a reduced cost base for €1 billion, mainly in the E&P segment.

In the first half of 2016, Eni reported an adjusted net loss of €267 million, down by €1,498 million compared to €1,231 million net profit reported in the same period of the previous year. This was due to a lower operating performance and a lower than proportional reduction in the tax expense, mainly attributable to the E&P segment, which resulted in the concentration of taxable profit in PSA contracts, which, although more resilient in a low-price environment, bear higher-than average rates of tax.

Special items of the operating profit (net charges of €297 million) comprised:

  • (i) impairment losses (€148 million) mainly relating to gas properties in the upstream segment (€105 million) driven by the impact of a lower gas price environment in Europe. Furthermore, investments made for compliance and stay-in-business purposes were written off at cash generating units previously devaluated in the Refining & Marketing business (€34 million);
  • (ii) environmental provisions (€101 million);
  • (iii) the effects of the fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges under IFRS (a gain of €115 million).

Non-operating special items referred to income taxes including related to tax effects of special gains/charges in operating profit, the write-off of certain deferred tax assets (€149 million) due to projections of lower future taxable profit at Italian subsidiaries.

The breakdown of the adjusted net profit is shown in the table below:

(a) This item concerned mainly intragroup sales of commodities, services and capital goods recorded in the assets of the purchasing business segment as of end of the period.

In the first half of 2016 the trading environment featured a continuing decrease of commodity prices lead by a fall in the Brent marker price (down by 31.4% from the first half of 2015) due to global oversupplies. Gas prices were negatively affected by the weakness of the relevant markets (the United States and Europe).

The Standard Eni Refining Margin (SERM) that gauges the profitability of Eni's refineries, halved its value to 4.4 \$/bl (down by 47.2%) in a context of extreme volatility due to weak fundamentals of the European refining market, affected by sluggish demand growth, structural overcapacity, as well as the increasing competitive pressure from streams of oil products imported from Russia, Asia and the United States.

The natural gas market continues to be affected by a weak gas demand recovery and increasing competitive pressure. Pricing competition continues to be strong, fostered by minimum take clause in take-or-pay gas supply contracts and reduced sales opportunities.

Net finance expense of €288 million decreased by €275 million from the first half of 2015. The main drivers were: (i) lower interest rates reflecting accommodative monetary policies adopted by the central banks worldwide; (ii) the recycling through profit of a fair-valued option (up by €40 million) embedded in the convertible Snam bond, which was settled in the first half of 2016. In the first half of 2015 the option recorded a negative change in fair value reflecting the appreciation of the underlying shares; (iii) a positive change amounting to €200 million in exchange rate differences and exchange rate derivatives, with the latter being recognized through profit because such derivatives did not meet the formal criteria to be designed as hedges under IFRS. Those gains were partly offset by a loss recorded om securities held for trading due mainly to exchange rate exposures which was hedged by pooling it with other Group exposures on exchange rates and by hedging the net Group exposure.

Net income from investments amounted to €78 million and related to:

  • (i) gains from equity accounted investments (€81 million) mainly in the Exploration & Production segment and in the Corporate and other activities segment, relating to Eni's share of results of the equity-accounted Saipem;
  • (ii) dividends received from entities accounted for at cost (€55 million), mainly Nigeria LNG Ltd (€22 million) and Saudi European Petrochemical Co (€20 million);
  • (iii) a net loss on the sale of investments (€27 million) which included mainly the disposal of the residual interest of 2.22% in the share capital of Snam (€32 million) due to the settlement of the convertible bond, partly offset by a gain on the divestment of 100% interest in Eni Slovenija doo (€5 million).

Other income (expense) mainly related to an impairment loss recorded in G&P related to the interest in Union Fenosa Gas SA (€8 million).

The table below sets forth a breakdown of net income/loss from investments for the first half of 2016:

In the first half of 2016, the Exploration & Production segment reported an adjusted operating profit of €450 million, down by €2,215 million or 83.1% from the same period of the previous year. This change was driven by lower oil and gas realizations in dollar terms (down by 32.8% and 34.1%, respectively), reflecting lower prices for the marker Brent (down by 31.4%) and lower gas prices in Europe and in the United States. Furthermore, results were negatively impacted by the production shutdown at the Val d'Agri profit centre for the whole of the second quarter. These effects were only partially offset by higher production in other areas, cost efficiencies (lower opex) and decreasing DD&A.

Adjusted operating profit excluded a positive adjustment of €162 million, due to impairment losses relating to gas properties (€105 million) driven by the impact of a lower price environment in Europe and special gains of €25 million relating to exchange differences and derivatives related to exchange rate exposure in commodity pricing formulas and exposure on trade payables that are reclassified to adjusted operating profit as well as losses on fair-valued derivatives (a charge of €15 million) embedded in the pricing formulas of long-term gas supply agreements.

Adjusted net loss amounted to €290 million reflecting lower operating performance and a lower than proportional reduction in the tax expense, driven by a deteriorating price scenario, which resulted in the concentration of taxable profit in PSA contracts, which, although more resilient in a low-price environment, bear higher-than average rates of tax and a reduced capacity to recognize deferred tax assets on losses incurred in the quarter.

In the first half of 2016, taxes paid represented approximately 37% of the cash flow from operating activities of the E&P segment before changes in working capital and income taxes paid.

Gas & Power

(a) Excluding special items.

In the first half of 2016, the Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of €56 million, down by €269 million y-o-y. This reflected lower one-off benefits associated to contract renegotiations retroactive to previous reporting periods and other non-recurring items. Furthermore, the sector performance was hit by deteriorated margins on LNG sales. These negatives were partly offset by optimization initiatives and reduced logistics costs. The retail segment reported lower results due to unusual winter weather conditions.

Adjusted operating profit was calculated by excluding an inventory holding loss of €158 million and net gains of €31 million relating to the positive effect of fair-valued commodity derivatives lacking the formal requisites to be accounted as hedges under IFRS (€144 million) and other extraordinary charges for €153 million. Special items also included a negative balance of €40 million due to exchange rate differences and exchange rate derivatives reclassified in operating profit.

The Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted net profit of €3 million, due to an increased adjusted tax rate.

(a) Excluding special items.

In the first half of 2016, the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment reported an adjusted operating profit of €333 million, up by €107 million, or 47%, from a year ago.

The Refining & Marketing business reported an adjusted operating profit of €110 million. This was €21 million lower than the first half of 2015 (down by 16%) driven mainly by sharply lower refining margins, with the Eni benchmark refining margin (SERM) down by 47.2% from 8.3 \$/bl to 4.4 \$/bl y-o-y. Cost efficiencies, optimization and a better plant performance helped to mitigate the negative scenario. Higher margins boosted marketing activities.

The Chemical business registered an adjusted operating profit of €223 million, up by €128 million from the first half of 2015, in a mixed trading environment, benefitting from efficiency initiatives performed in previous reporting periods and increasing margins in polyethylene, while cracker margins resulted substantially stable.

Special items excluded from the adjusted operating profit of €122 million comprised impairment losses to write down capital expenditure of the period at assets impaired in previous reporting periods (€34 million), environmental charges (€67 million) as well as fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives (charges of €14 million) lacking the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges under IFRS.

Adjusted net profit of €248 million increased by €73 million, or 41.7% reflecting a better operating performance.

Alternative performance measures (Non-GAAP measures)

Management evaluates underlying business performance on the basis of Non-GAAP financial measures under IFRS ("Alternative performance measures"), such as adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit, which are arrived at by excluding inventory holding gains or losses, special items and, in determining the business segments' adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income. The adjusted operating profit of each business segment reports gains and losses on derivative financial instruments entered into to manage exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates which affect industrial margins and translation of commercial payables and receivables. Accordingly, also currency translation effects recorded through profit and loss are reported within business segments' adjusted operating profit. The taxation effect of the items excluded from adjusted operating or net profit is determined based on the specific rate of taxes applicable to each of them.

Management includes them in order to facilitate a comparison of base business performance across periods, and to allow financial analysts to evaluate Eni's trading performance on the basis of their forecasting models. Non-GAAP financial measures should be read together with information determined by applying IFRS and do not stand in for them. Other companies may adopt different methodologies to determine Non-GAAP measures.

Follows the description of the main alternative performance measures adopted by Eni. The measures reported below refer to the actual performance:

Adjusted operating and net profit

Adjusted operating and net profit are determined by excluding inventory holding gains or losses, special items and, in determining the business segments' adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income. The adjusted operating profit of each business segment reports gains and losses on derivative financial instruments entered into to manage exposure to movements in foreign currency exchange rates which impact industrial margins and translation of commercial payables and receivables. Accordingly, also currency translation effects recorded through profit and loss are reported within business segments' adjusted operating profit. The taxation effect of the items excluded from adjusted operating or net profit is determined based on the specific rate of taxes applicable to each of them.

Finance charges or income related to net borrowings excluded from the adjusted net profit of business segments are comprised of interest charges on finance debt and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents not related to operations. Therefore, the adjusted net profit of business segments includes finance charges or income deriving from certain segment operated assets, i.e., interest income on certain receivable financing and securities related to operations and finance charge pertaining to the accretion of certain provisions recorded on a discounted basis (as in the case of the asset retirement obligations in the Exploration & Production segment).

Inventory holding gain or loss

This is the difference between the cost of sales of the volumes sold in the period based on the cost of supplies of the same period and the cost of sales of the volumes sold calculated using the weighted average cost method of inventory accounting as required by IFRS.

Special items

These include certain significant income or charges pertaining to either: (i) infrequent or unusual events and transactions, being identified as non-recurring items under such circumstances; (ii) certain events or transactions which are not considered to be representative of the ordinary course of business, as in the case of environmental provisions, restructuring charges, asset impairments or write ups and gains or losses on divestments even though they occurred in past periods or are likely to occur in future ones; or (iii) exchange rate differences and derivatives relating to industrial activities and commercial payables and receivables, particularly exchange rate derivatives to manage commodity pricing formulas which are quoted in a currency other than the functional currency. Those items are reclassified in operating profit with a corresponding adjustment to net finance charges, notwithstanding the handling of foreign currency exchange risks is made centrally by netting off naturally-occurring opposite positions and then dealing with any residual risk exposure in the exchange rate market.

As provided for in Decision No. 15519 of July 27, 2006 of the Italian market regulator (CONSOB), non-recurring material income or charges are to be clearly reported in the management's discussion and financial tables. Also, special items allow to allocate to future reporting periods gains and losses on re-measurement at fair value of certain non hedging commodity derivatives and exchange rate derivatives relating to commercial exposures, lacking the criteria to be designed as hedges, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges and certain derivative financial instruments embedded in the pricing formula of long-term gas supply agreements of the Exploration & Production segment.

Adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit and cash flow from operating activities on a standalone basis

Considering the significant impact of the discontinued operations in the comparative reporting periods of 2015, management used an adjusted performance measures calculated on a standalone basis. This Non-GAAP measure excludes as usual the items "profit/loss on stock" and extraordinary gains and losses (special items), while it reinstates the effects relating to the elimination of gains and losses on intercompany transactions with the Engineering & Construction segment which, as of December 31, 2015, was in the disposal phase, represented as discontinued operations under the IFRS5. These measures obtain a representation of the performance of the continuing operations which anticipates the effect of the derecognition of the discontinued operations. Namely: adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit and cash flow from operating activities on a standalone basis.

Leverage

Leverage is a Non-GAAP measure of the Company's financial condition, calculated as the ratio between net borrowings and shareholders' equity, including non-controlling interest. Leverage is the reference ratio to assess the solidity and efficiency of the Group balance sheet in terms of incidence of funding sources including third-party funding and equity as well as to carry out benchmark analysis with industry standards.

Free cash flow

Free cash flow represents the link existing between changes in cash and cash equivalents (deriving from the statutory cash flows statement) and in net borrowings (deriving from the summarized cash flow statement) that occurred from the beginning of the period to the end of period. Free cash flow is the cash in excess of capital expenditure needs. Starting from free cash flow it is possible to determine either: (i) changes in cash and cash equivalents for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to financing debts/receivables (issuance/repayment of debt and receivables related to financing activities), shareholders' equity (dividends paid, net repurchase of own shares, capital issuance) and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences; (ii) changes in net borrowings for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to shareholders' equity and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences.

Net borrowings

Net borrowings is calculated as total finance debt less cash, cash equivalents and certain very liquid investments not related to operations, including among others non-operating financing receivables and securities not related to operations.

Financial activities are qualified as "not related to operations" when these are not strictly related to the business operations.

The following tables report the group operating profit and Group adjusted net profit and their break-down by segment, as well as is represented the reconciliation with net profit attributable to Eni's shareholders of continuing operations.

Summarized Group Balance Sheet

The summarized Group balance sheet aggregates the amount of assets and liabilities derived from the statutory balance sheet in accordance with functional criteria which consider the enterprise conventionally divided into the three fundamental areas focusing on resource investments, operations and financing. Management believes that this summarized group balance sheet is useful information in assisting investors to assess Eni's capital structure and to analyze its sources of funds and investments in fixed assets and working capital. Management uses the summarized group balance sheet to calculate key ratios such as the proportion of net borrowings to shareholders' equity (leverage) intended to evaluate whether Eni's financing structure is sound and well-balanced.

(a) For a reconciliation to the statutory statement of cash flow see the paragraph "Reconciliation of Summarized Group Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flow s to Statutory Schemes".

The Summarized Group Balance Sheet was affected by the movement in the EUR/USD exchange rate which determined a decrease in net capital employed, total equity and net borrowings by €950 million, €875 million and €75 million, respectively. This was due to translation into euros of the financial statements of US-denominated subsidiaries reflecting a 1.9% appreciation of the euro against the US dollar (1 EUR= 1.1102 USD at June 30, 2016 compared to 1.089 at December 31, 2015).

Fixed assets (€77,256 million) increased by €806 million from December 31, 2015. The item "Property, plant and equipment" slightly decreased mainly due to the appreciation of the euro and DD&A and writeoffs (€3,974 million) partly offset by capital expenditure for the period (€4,879 million). Finally the line item "Equity-accounted investments and other investments" increased by €1,214 million due to the recognition as an equity-accounted investment of the residual 30.55% stake in Saipem and the pro-quota amount cashed out to subscribe Saipem share capital increase for an overall amount of €1,614 million, as well as the entity result for the period attributable to Eni.

Net working capital was in negative territory at minus €10,184 million, barely unchanged compared to December 31, 2015. Reduced trade receivables, mainly in the G&P segment were partially offset by lower provisions as well as higher commercial exposure to joint-venture partners in the E&P segment.

Discontinued operations, asset held for sale including related liabilities (€75 million) decreased by €8.973 million due to the closing of Saipem transaction. The residual amount mainly referred to fuel distribution activities in Eastern Europe in disposal phase.

Leverage and net borrowings

Leverage is a measure used by management to assess the Company's level of indebtedness. It is calculated as a ratio of net borrowings which is calculated by excluding cash and cash equivalents and certain very liquid assets from financial debt to shareholders' equity, including non-controlling interest. Management periodically reviews leverage in order to assess the soundness and efficiency of the Group balance sheet in terms of optimal mix between net borrowings and net equity, and to carry out benchmark analysis with industry standards.

Shareholders' equity including non-controlling interest 57,409 52,303 (5,106)

Net borrowings as of June 30, 2016, amounted to €13,814 million, down by €3,057 million from December 31, 2015 due to the closing of the Saipem transaction. This comprised the reimbursement of intercompany financing receivables owed by Saipem to Eni (€5.8 billion), the proceeds from the divestment of 12.503% of Eni's interest in Saipem to the Italy-based CDP Equity SpA (€0.46 billion), net of the amount cashed out to subscribe pro-quota the Saipem share capital increase (€1.07 billion).

Total debt amounted to €25,788 million, of which €4,654 million were short-term (including the portion of long-term debt due within 12 months equal to €948 million) and €21,134 million were long-term.

The ratio of net borrowings to shareholders' equity including non-controlling interest – leverage – was 0.26 at June 30, 2016 (0.29 at December 31, 2015). This decrease was due to lower net borrowings partly offset by a reduction in total equity. The equity reduction was impacted by the negative result of the period, the de-recognition of the Saipem non-controlling interest and the dividend payment (€1.44 billion).

Shareholders' equity including non-controlling interest was €52,303 million, down by €5,106 million from December 31, 2015. This was due to net loss in comprehensive income (€1,756 million) given by net loss of €1,237 million and negative foreign currency translation differences (€875 million). Also affecting the total equity was the de-recognition of Saipem non-controlling interest (€1,872 million), dividend distribution and other changes of €1,478 million (€1,440 million being the 2015 final dividend and dividends to non-controlling interests). These effects were partially offset by the positive change in the cash flow hedge reserve (€428 million).

Summarized Group Cash Flow Statement

Eni's summarized Group cash flow statement derives from the statutory statement of cash flows. It enables investors to understand the link existing between changes in cash and cash equivalents (deriving from the statutory cash flows statement) and in net borrowings (deriving from the summarized cash flow statement) that occurred from the beginning of the period to the end of period. The measure enabling such a link is represented by the free cash flow which is the cash in excess of capital expenditure needs. Starting from free cash flow it is possible to determine either: (i) changes in cash and cash equivalents for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to financing debts/receivables (issuance/repayment of debt and receivables related to financing activities), shareholders' equity (dividends paid, net repurchase of own shares, capital issuance) and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences; and (ii) change in net borrowings for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to shareholders' equity and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences. The free cash flow and net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations on a standalone basis are non-GAAP measures of financial performance.

(b) Net cash used in investing activities included investments and divestments (on net basis) in held-for-trading financial assets and other investments/divestments in certain short-term financial assets. Due to their nature and the circumstance that they are very liquid, these financial assets are netted against finance debt in determining net borrow ings. Cash flow s of such investments w ere as follow s:

(300) Borrowings (repayment) of debt related to financing activities 25 5,199 5,174

In the first half of 2016, net cash provided by operating activities from continuing operations amounted to €3,100 million. Proceeds from disposals were €951 million and mainly related to the 12.503% interest in Saipem (€463 million) and an interest in Snam due to exercise of the conversion rights by bondholders (€332 million).

These inflows funded part of the financial requirements for the payment of Eni's balance dividend of 2015 (€1,440 million), capital expenditure (€4,879 million) and the amount cashed out to subscribe the share capital increase of Saipem.

When considering the cash flow associated to the reimbursement of intercompany financing receivables amounting to €5,818 million, as part of the closing of the Saipem deal, the Group's net debt decreased by €3,057 million.

From January 1, 2016, Eni's captive insurance subsidiary is required to meet certain capital and solvency ratios as minimum requirements to continue performing the insurance activity based on the provisions of EU Solvency II Directive (the so called Minimum Capital Requirement - MCR - and Solvency Capital Requirement - SCR). Therefore, it is no longer necessary to commit the financial assets of the insurance company to funding the loss provisions. Accordingly, those assets, which mainly comprise available-for-sale securities and bank deposits, have ceased to be classified as held for operating purposes and have been netted against finance debt in determining the Group net borrowing at June 30, 2016 with a positive impact of €569 million.

  • development activities deployed mainly in Egypt, Angola, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Norway, Iraq and Libya and exploratory activities primarily in Egypt, Angola and Congo;

  • refining activity (€107 million) aiming fundamentally at plants improving, as well as initiatives in the field of health, security and environment; regulation compliance and stay in business initiatives in the refined product retail network (€33 million);

  • initiatives relating to gas marketing (€29 million).

Risk factors and uncertainties

Foreword

In this section are described the main risks Eni faces in each of its business segments. For the disclosure on financial risks (market, counterparty and liquidity risk), see note N. 29 "Guarantees, commitments and risks" in the Notes to the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

Risks related to the cyclicality of the Oil & Gas sector

Eni's operating results, mainly of the Exploration & Production segment, are exposed to volatile prices of crude oil and natural gas. Higher oil prices increase the Group consolidated results of operations and cash flow; vice versa, in case of falling oil prices.

In the last two years, the oil industry has been in the midst of a downturn driven by global oversupplies and sluggish global growth. After dropping below \$30 per barrel in the first months of 2016 to its 13-year low, the price of Brent crude has recovered to about the \$50 mark thanks to a certain market stabilization. In the first half of 2016, the benchmark Brent price averaged \$40 per barrel, with a reduction of approximately 30% compared to the first half of 2015. In the next months, y-o-y comparison will gradually improve. On the base of the review of the fundamentals of demand and supply, being updated in light of the recent trends of the industry, Eni's management envisages that the oil market will gradually rebalance in the subsequent four-year plan period. This will be driven by reduced investments by international oil companies, a slowdown in the U.S. tight oil production, the difficulties of some major oil-producing countries to find financial resources to maintain their current levels of production and, in the longer term, thanks to the important contribution to demand growth expected from countries like India. This outlook is clouded by a number of risks and uncertainties, such as the trend in global energy demand, affected in the short term by risks of slowdown in the global economic activity, as well as aggressive policy of Saudi Arabia seeking to increase its market share. Eni's management has evaluated a number of risks and uncertainties inherent in such expectations, including technology evolution, structural changes that have been currently affecting oil industry such as the U.S. tight oil revolution, lower influence from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries ("OPEC"), reduced impact of geopolitical crises and the greater role played by renewable energy sources and risks associated with internationally-agreed measures intended to reduce GHG emissions. Based on this outlook, in performing the evaluations of the first half report 2016 Eni's management has substantially confirmed its conservative pricing assumptions of the Brent crude oil marker adopted in the Company's 2016-2019 strategic plan and 2015 Annual Report (based on the long-term reference price of 65 \$/barrel).

Looking forward to 2020 and beyond, Eni has defined a strategy, action plan and the first set of projects, in order to evolve its business model towards a low-carbon future in the context of macroeconomic growth. The Company took into consideration that the States committed to reduce their GHG emissions and foster energy saving, with a challenging goal of limiting the average increase of the global temperature below the two degrees threshold compared to pre-industrial levels. Based on this outlook, the renewable energy sources will play an increasingly greater role in Eni's portfolio, leveraging on industrial, marketing and contractual synergies with Eni's core activities.

Eni estimates that movements in oil prices affect approximately 50% of its current oil&gas production. The Company does not hedge this exposure, except for specific business's cases or market conditions. The remaining portion of Eni's current production is insulated from crude oil price movements considering that the Company's property portfolio is characterized by a sizeable presence of production sharing contracts, where, due to the cost recovery mechanism, the Company is entitled to a larger number of barrels in case of a fall in crude oil prices (see below). Based on the current portfolio of oil&gas assets, Eni's management estimates that the Company's consolidated net profit varies by approximately €200 million for each one-dollar change in the price of the Brent crude oil benchmark with respect to the price case assumed in our financial projections for 2016 at \$41/bbl. Free cash flow is expected to reduce/increase by a similar amount.

In addition to the adverse effect on revenues, profitability and cash flow, lower oil&gas prices over prolonged period could result in asset impairments and affect the return of development projects in case actual prices would be lower than the prices assumed when the final investment decision was made. In such a scenario, Eni would review its capex plan, re-phasing, delaying or cancelling certain projects, which would negatively affect our growth rate. The Company, like other players in the industry, assesses its oil&gas projects based on long-term scenarios for oil prices, which reflect management's best assumptions about the underlying fundamentals of global demand and supply. This approach supports the achievement of the expected returns on capital projects through the swings of the oil&gas cycle.

Lower commodity prices may also reduce Eni's access to capital and lead to a downgrade or other negative rating action with respect to our credit rating by rating agencies, including Standard & Poor's Ratings Services ("S&P") and Moody's Investor Services Inc ("Moody's"). These downgrades negatively affect our cost of capital, increase our financial expenses, and may limit Eni's ability to access capital markets and execute aspects of our business plans. At the end of March 2016, both agencies lowered Eni's long-term corporate credit rating (to BBB+ and Baa1, respectively).

Future oil prices may substantially differ from the price used in calculating Eni's estimated proved reserves and their net present value determined by using the 10% discount factor. The prices used in calculating Eni's estimated proved reserves are, in accordance with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the "U.S. SEC") requirements, calculated by determining the unweighted arithmetic average of the first-day-of-the-month commodity prices for the preceding 12 months.

For the 12-month period ending December 31, 2015, average prices were based on 54 \$/bbl for the Brent crude oil. This decline in the price of crude oil triggered the downward revision of those reserves that have become uneconomic in this type of environment. Commodity prices declined significantly in the first half of 2016. If oil prices do not increase significantly in the second half of the year, our future calculations of estimated proved reserves will be based on lower commodity prices which could result in our having to remove non-economic reserves from our proved reserves in future periods. This effect will be counterbalanced in full or in part by increased reserves corresponding to the additional volume entitlements under Eni's PSAs relating to cost oil: i.e. because of lower oil and gas prices, the reimbursement of expenditures incurred by the Company requires additional volumes of reserves.

At December 31, 2015, the net present value of our proved reserves totaled approximately €38 billion. The average prices used to estimate our proved reserves and the net present value at December 31, 2015 were \$54 per barrel for the Brent crude oil. Holding all other factors constant and using the 10% discount factor, if commodity prices used were in line with the pricing environment existing in the first half of 2016, Eni's PV-10 could decrease significantly compared to December 31, 2015.

Volatile oil prices represent an uncertainty factor in view of achieving the Company's operating targets of production growth and reserve replacement due to the relevant amount of Production Sharing Agreements (PSA) in Eni's portfolio. Under such contracts, the Company is entitled to receive a portion of the production, the sale of which should cover expenditures incurred and earn the Company a share of profit. Accordingly, the higher are the reference prices for crude oil used to determine production and reserve entitlements, the lower is the number of barrels to cover the same dollar amounts hence the amounts of booked production and reserves; and vice versa.

The Company currently estimates that production entitlements in its PSAs increases on average by approximately 1,500 bbl/d for each \$1 decrease in oil prices. This sensitivity analysis relates to the existing Eni portfolio and might vary in the future. The impact of price effects on the Company's production was about 27 kbbl/d in the first half of 2016, contributing by some percentage points to the production growth of the first half of 2016.

The oil and gas industry is capital intensive. Eni makes and expects to continue to make substantial capital expenditures in its business for the exploration, development, exploitation and production of oil and natural gas reserves. The Company's capital budget for the four-year plan 2016-2019 amounts to €37 billion and is substantially lower than our previous industrial plan (down by an estimated 21% at constant exchange rates) as a result of a planned reduction in spending prompted by significantly depressed commodity prices. The Company has budgeted €9.4 billion for capital expenditure in 2016 relating to continuing operations, which are 20% lower than in 2015 at constant exchange rates. In the first half of 2016, capital expenditure amounted to €4.88 million. For the rest of the year, the management may find that additional reductions in Eni's 2016 capital spending budget become necessary depending on market conditions.

Historically, Eni's capital expenditures have been financed with cash generated by operations, proceeds from asset disposal, borrowings under its credit facilities and proceeds from the issuance of debt and bonds. On the back of the current scenario, Eni's management expects to carry out a number of initiatives intended to reduce capital spending. Management forecasts that capex will be 100%-funded by cash flow from operations at about 50 \$/barrel scenario vs an initial guidance of 63 \$/barrel for the 2015- 2016 period. However, actual cash flow from operations may be affected by factors such as: (i) the actual prices Eni receives for sales of crude oil and natural gas; (ii) amount of actual production of oil & gas; (iii) time-to-market of Eni's reserves; iv) political risks; v) cost efficiencies.

If cash generated by operations, cash from asset disposal, or cash available under Eni's liquidity reserve or its credit facilities is not sufficient to meet capital requirements, the failure to obtain additional financing could result in a curtailment of operations relating to development of Eni's reserves, which in turn could adversely affect its business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows and its ability to achieve its growth plans. As of the date of this financial statement, the setting up and maintenance of the reserve of strategic liquidity is mainly aimed to: (i) guarantee of financial flexibility. Liquidity should allow Eni Group to fund any extraordinary need (such as difficulty in access to credit, exogenous shock, macroeconomic environment, as well as merger and acquisitions); and (ii) ensure a full coverage of short-term debts and a coverage of medium and long-term financial debts due within a time horizon of 24 months, even in case of restrictions to credit.

Because of the above-mentioned risks, an extended continuation of the current commodity price environment, or further declines in commodity prices, will materially and adversely affect our business prospects, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, liquidity, ability to finance planned capital expenditures and commitments and may impact shareholder returns, including dividends and the share price.

The Group's results from its Refining & Marketing and Chemicals business are primarily dependent upon the supply and demand for refined products and the associated margins on refined product sales, with the impact of changes in oil prices on results of these segments being dependent upon the speed at which the prices of products adjust to reflect movements in oil prices.

Country risk

A substantial portion of Eni's oil and gas reserves and gas supplies are located in Countries outside the EU and the North America, namely in Africa, Central Asia and Central-Southern America, where the sociopolitical framework and macroeconomic outlook is less stable than in the OECD countries. In those less stable countries, Eni is exposed to a wide range of risks and uncertainties which could materially impact the ability of the Company to conduct its operations in a safe, reliable and profitable manner.

As of December 31, 2015, approximately 81% of Eni's proved hydrocarbon reserves were located in such countries and 60% of Eni's supplies of natural gas came from outside OECD countries. Adverse political, social and economic developments, such as internal conflicts, revolutions, establishment of nondemocratic regimes, protests, strikes and other forms of civil disorder, contraction of economic activity and financial difficulties of the local governments with repercussions on the solvency of state institutions which are lifting their share of production from the development projects where they are partnering Eni, inflation levels, exchange rates and similar events in those non-OECD countries may negatively impair Eni's ability to continue operating in an economic way, either temporarily or permanently, and Eni's ability to access oil and gas reserves.

In particular, Eni faces risks in connection with the following, possible issues:

(i) lack of well-established and reliable legal systems and uncertainties surrounding enforcement of contractual rights;

(ii) unfavorable enforcement of laws, regulations and contractual arrangements leading, for example, to loss of value of Eni's assets, expropriations, nationalizations or forced divestitures of assets;

(iii) restrictions on exploration, production, imports and exports;

(iv) tax or royalty increases;

(v) political and social instability which could result in civil and social unrest, internal conflicts and other forms of protest and disorder such as strikes, riots, sabotage, acts of violence and similar incidents;

(vi) difficulties in finding qualified suppliers in critical operating environment;

(vii) complex process in granting authorizations or licences affecting time-to-market of certain development projects.

In recent years, Eni's production levels in Libya were negatively impacted by an internal revolution and a change of regime in 2011, which led to a prolonged period of political and social instability characterized by acts of local conflict, social unrest, protests, strikes and other similar events. Those political development forced Eni to temporarily interrupt or reduce its producing activities, negatively affecting Eni's results of operations and cash flow until the situation began to stabilize. Although our production levels in Libya since 2015 has returned to levels not seen from the outbreak of the civil war, the geopolitical situation remains unstable and unpredictable. In the first half of 2016, Eni's production in Lybia was 356 kboe/day, which represents approximately 20% of the Group total production.

To factor in possible risks of unfavorable geopolitical developments mainly in Libya but also elsewhere in other countries of Eni presence, which may lead to temporary production losses and disruptions in our operations in connection with, among others, acts of war, sabotage, social unrest, clashes and other form of civil disorder, we have applied a haircut to our future production levels based on management's appreciation of those risks, past experience and other considerations.

Also Eni's activities in Nigeria have been impacted in recent years by continuing episodes of theft, acts of sabotage and other similar disruptions which have jeopardized the Company's ability to conduct operations in full security, particularly in the onshore area of the Niger Delta.

Looking forward, Eni expects that those risks will continue to affect Eni's operations in those countries. Eni closely monitors political, social and economic risks of approximately 60 countries in which has invested or intends to invest, in order to evaluate the economic and financial return of certain projects and to selectively evaluate projects. While the occurrence of those events is unpredictable, it is likely that the occurrence of any such events could adversely affect Eni's results from operations, cash flow and business prospects, also including the counterparty risk arising from the financing exposure of Eni in case state-owned entities, which are party of Eni's upstream projects for developing hydrocarbons, fail to reimburse due amounts.

In the current depressed environment for crude oil prices, the financial outlook of certain countries where Eni's hydrocarbons reserves are located has significantly deteriorated due to lower proceeds from the exploitation of hydrocarbons resources. This trend has increased the risk of sovereign default, which may cause political and macroeconomic instability and trigger one or more of the above mentioned risks factors. State-owned petroleum companies of those countries are exposed to a liquidity risk too. Eni is partnering those national oil companies in executing certain oil&gas development projects. A possible sovereign default might jeopardize the financial feasibility of ongoing projects or increase the financial exposure of Eni, which is contractually obligated to finance the share of development expenditures of the first party in case of a financial shortfall of the latter. This risk is mitigated by the customary default clause, which states that in case of a default, the non-defaulting party is entitled to compensate its claims with the share of production of the defaulting party.

The political crisis in Russia and Ukraine referred to the Crimea's independence from Ukraine as a single united nation led the EU and the United States to impose a set of sanctions to Russia. The EU and US enacted sanctions are mainly targeting the financial sector and the energy sector in Russia.Approximately 30% of Eni's natural gas is supplied by Russia and Eni is currently partnering the Russian company Rosneft in executing exploration activities in the Russian sections of the Barents Sea and the Black Sea. Contracts pertaining to the above-mentioned exploration licences were entered into before the enactment of the restrictive measures and Eni started the required authorization procedure before the relevant EU Member States' Authorities who granted the Company certain authorizations that are valid throughout the whole European Union. However, given the uncertainty surrounding this matter, Eni cannot exclude major delays in certain ongoing or planned oil&gas projects in Russia.

Risks associated with the exploration and production of oil and natural gas

Safety, security, environmental and other operational risk

For these risks, see our disclosure in Annual Report on Form 20-2015.

Risks associated with the trading environment and competition in the gas market

The outlook of the European gas market remains unfavorable due to oversupply, exacerbated by increased availability of liquefied natural gas ("LNG") on global scale, which has found an outlet in Europe. Gas demand has showed signs of recovery, particularly in the thermoelectric sector thanks to lower use of coal following the introduction of carbon pricing and other factors in important countries (United Kingdom and Spain) and lower hydroelectric production in Italy, as well as higher level of economic activity. However, the rate of the demand growth is still insufficient to absorb the supply glut.

In 2016, gas demand in Italy and Europe is expected to increase by 2%. Looking forward, management does not expect any meaningful acceleration in gas demand growth in Italy and in Europe, targeting consumption levels of 70 bcm and 460 bcm by 2020, respectively, representing an average growth rate of approximately 1% over the period.

On the back of deteriorating competitive scenario, the management periodically renegotiated the Company's long-term supply contracts with take-or-pay clauses, where the Company is obligated to offtake a contractually set minimum volume of gas supplies or, in case of failure, to pay the contractual price (see below). The renegotiation allowed the Company to index approximately 70% of its supply portfolio to the market benchmark, ensuring better competitiveness for our gas.

Eni anticipates a number of risk factors to the profitability outlook of the Company's gas marketing business over the four-year planning period. Those include continuing oversupplies and strong competition. Eni believes that those trends will negatively affect the gas marketing business future results of operations and cash flows by reducing gas selling prices and margins. Eni financial outlook has factored in the rigidities of the Company's long-term supply contracts with take-or-pay clauses.

The main source of risk is concerning Eni's wholesale business which results are exposed to the volatility of the spreads between spot prices at European hubs and Italian spot prices because our supply costs are mainly indexed to spot prices at European hubs, whereas a large part of our selling volumes are indexed to Italian spot prices. Against this backdrop, Eni's management will continue to execute its strategy of renegotiating the Company's long-term gas supply contracts in order to align pricing and volume terms to current market conditions as they evolve. The revision clauses provided by these contracts states the right of each counterparty to renegotiate the economic terms and other contractual conditions periodically, in relation to ongoing changes in the gas scenario. Particularly, management is planning to renegotiate its main long-term supply contracts over the plan period targeting to align supply costs to prices prevailing in the wholesale market, which will allow the Company recover logistic costs to achieve structural breakeven.

Management believes that the outcome of those renegotiations is uncertain in respect of both the amount of the economic benefits that will be ultimately obtained and the timing of recognition in profit. Furthermore, in case Eni and the gas suppliers fail to agree on revised contractual terms, the claiming party has the ability to open an arbitration procedure to obtain revised contractual conditions. This would add to the level of uncertainty surrounding the outcome and timing of those renegotiations.

Similar considerations can be made for long-term sales contracts, which are currently being renegotiated or are expected to be renegotiated, with an aim to align the sale price and other terms to market conditions.

In the markets where the gas prices are mainly indexed to the price of crude oil (e.g., in the Far East), the profitability of the international LNG sales may be affected due to reduced arbitration margins.

Current negative trends in gas demands and supplies may impair the Company's ability to fulfill its minimum off-take obligations in connection with its take-or-pay, long-term gas supply contracts

In order to secure medium/long term access to gas availability, particularly with a view of supplying the Italian gas market and anticipating certain trends in gas demand which actually failed to materialize, Eni has signed a number of long-term gas supply contracts with national operators of certain key producing countries, where most of European gas supplies are sourced from. These contracts have a residual life of approximately 12 years. These contracts include take-or-pay clauses whereby the Company is required to off-take minimum, pre-set volumes of gas in each year of the contractual term or, in case of failure, to pay the whole price, or a fraction of that price, up to the minimum contractual quantity. Similar considerations apply to ship-or-pay contractual obligations. Long-term gas supply contracts with take-orpay clauses expose the Company to a price risk (and consequently to an opportunity) as well as volume risk, as the Company is contractually required to purchase minimum annual amounts of gas or, in case of failure, to pay the underlying price. Furthermore, in the light of the latest trend of low commodity prices, the above-mentioned take-or-pay clause exposes the Company to a risk, because the cost of gas that the Company recognizes at the incurrence of the take-or-pay clause may be higher than the current cost of gas supplies in the year when the accrued gas is actually reversed through profit and loss.

Looking forward, management believes that the current market outlook which will be driven by continued oversupplies, weak demand growth, strong competitive pressures as well as any possible change in sector-specific regulation represents a risk factor to the Company's ability to fulfill its minimum take obligations associated with its long-term supply contracts. In the medium term, this risk will be mitigated by expected reduction of the contractual minimum take, due to expiration of some contracts.

In this scenario, management is committed to the renegotiation of long-term gas supply contract and on portfolio optimization, in order to reduce the exposure to take-or-pay contracts and to the related financial risk.

Thanks to contract renegotiations and effective selling activities, the Company lifted part of the underlying volumes, the purchase cost of which the Company advanced to its gas supplies in previous years due to the incurrence of the take-or-pay clause. By this way, the Company has achieved a reduction in its deferred costs recorded in the balance sheet (from €2.4 billion at the end of 2012 down to approximately €0.3 billion as of June 30, 2016). Looking forward, management plans to substantially finalize the recovery of the residual amounts of gas paid in advance in the next few years, fulfilling contractual clauses and recovering the prepaid amounts.

Risks associated with sector-specific regulations in Italy

For these risks, see our disclosure in Annual Report on Form 20-2015.

Risks related to legal proceedings and compliance with anti-corruption legislation

Eni is the defendant in a number of civil actions and administrative proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. In addition to existing provisions accrued as of December 31, 2015 to account for ongoing proceedings, it is possible that in future years Eni may incur significant losses in addition to the amounts already accrued in connection with pending legal proceedings due to: (i) uncertainty regarding the final outcome of each proceeding; (ii) the occurrence of new developments that management could not take into consideration when evaluating the likely outcome of each proceeding in order to accrue the risk provisions as of the date of the latest financial statements; (iii) the emergence of new evidence and information; and (iv) underestimation of probable future losses due to the circumstance that they are often inherently difficult to estimate.

Certain legal proceedings where Eni or its subsidiaries or its officers are parties involve the alleged breach of anti-corruption laws and regulations and ethical misconduct. Ethical misconduct and non-compliance with applicable laws and regulations, including non-compliance with anti-bribery and anticorruption laws, by Eni, its partners, agents or others that act on the Group's behalf, could expose Eni and its employees to criminal and civil penalties and could be damaging to Eni's reputation and shareholder value.

Outlook

Management's forecasts for the Group's 2016 production and sale metrics are explained below:

  • Hydrocarbon production: management expects production stable y-o-y due to planned ramp-ups and start-ups of new fields particularly in Norway, Egypt, Angola, Venezuela and Congo. These increases will absorb a four-month production shutdown in the Val d'Agri profit centre, mature fields decline and a lower expected contribution from production one-offs;

- Natural gas sales: against a backdrop of continuing oversupply and strong competition, management expects gas sales to be in line with an expected reduction of the contractual minimum take of supply contracts. Management plans to retain its market share in the large customers and retail segments, also increasing the value of the existing customer base by developing innovative commercial initiatives, by integrating services to the supply of the commodity and by optimizing operations and commercial activities;

  • Refinery intake on own account: refinery intakes are expected to slightly decrease y-o-y, excluding the effect of the disposal of Eni's refining capacity in CRC refinery in the Czech Republic finalized in April 2015. This will reflect the disoptimization of the processing schedule following lower availability of feedstock from the Val d'Agri oilfield and planned maintenance shutdowns;

- Refined products sales in Italy and in the rest of Europe: against a backdrop of slight recovery in demand and strong competition, management expects to consolidate volume and market share in the Italian retail market while also increasing the value of the existing customer base. This will be achieved by leveraging on the competitive differentiation, the innovation of products and services as well as efficiency in logistics and commercial activities. In the rest of Europe, sales are expected to remain stable, excluding the effects of asset disposals in Eastern Europe;

- Chemical products scenario: scenario is expected mildly positive with the recover in polyethylene margins when compared to 2015, although declining since June 2016. Cracker and styrenics margins are foreseen slightly lower while the elastomer business is expected to be weak, but improving from 2015. Sales volumes expected to be barely unchanged.

In 2016 management expects to carry out a number of initiatives intended to reduce capital spending by 20% y-o-y on a constant exchange rate basis by re-phasing and rescheduling capital projects, being increasingly selective with exploration plays and renegotiating contracts for the supply of capital goods in order to cope with the slump in crude oil prices. This capex optimization is not expected to negatively affect production growth, which is confirmed at an average growth rate of above 3% across the plan period. The Group's leverage is projected to remain within the 0.30 threshold thanks to the closing of the Saipem transaction, optimization of the underlying performance and assuming to finalize by year-end the planned portfolio management deals.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements

1 Basis of presentation

The Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements (hereinafter "Interim Financial Statements") have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting". The statements are the same adopted in the last Annual Report, except for the new line item "Write-off", presented in the profit and loss account and in the statement of cash flows, which include the write-off of intangible and tangible assets. Management considered relevant the presentation of this additional line item due to the adoption, on a voluntary basis, of the accounting of oil & gas activities under the Successful Efforts Method (hereinafter SEM), as described below.

The Interim Financial Statements have been prepared adopting the same principles of consolidation and measurement criteria described in the last Annual Report, except for: (i) the adoption of the SEM; and (ii) the adoption of the international financial reporting standards effective from January 1, 2016 and disclosed in the note 7 "Recent accounting standards" of Annual Report 2015.

Because the criteria for the classification of Versalis as disposal group and discontinued operation are no longer met, the 2015 comparative figures have been amended as though Versalis never qualified as held for sale. Therefore, Eni reassessed the carrying amount of Versalis based on its recoverable amount, that is the higher of its fair value less costs of disposal and value in use, rather than the measurement of the disposal group at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less costs to sell. For the calculation of the value in use, Eni defined a specific Weighted Average Cost of Capital (WACC) for the "Chemical" business, on the basis of the beta of a sample of companies operating in the same segment, to discount the future cash flows expected from Versalis fixed assets1.

Because of the adoption of SEM2, the recognition and measurement criteria of oil & gas activities are as follows:

• Acquisition of exploration rights: costs associated with the acquisition of exploration rights (o for their extension), including costs related to acquired

exploration potential, are initially capitalized within the line item "Intangible assets" as "exploration rights – unproved" pending determination of whether the exploration and appraisal activities in the reference areas are successful or not. Unproved exploration rights are not amortized, but reviewed to confirm that there is no indication that the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount. This review is based on the confirmation of the commitment of the company to continue the exploration activities and on the analysis of facts and circumstances that can show the existence of uncertainties related to the recoverability of the carrying amount. If no future activity is planned, the carrying amount of the related exploration rights is written off. Lower value exploration rights are pooled and amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated period of exploration. In the event of a discovery of proved reserves (i.e. upon recognition of proved reserves and internal approval for development), the carrying amount of the related unproved exploration rights is reclassified to "proved exploration rights", within the line item "Intangible assets". When the reclassification is recognized and whether there is any indication of impairment, the carrying amount of exploration rights to reclassify as proved is tested for impairment considering the higher of their value in use and fair value less costs of disposal. From the commencement of production, proved exploration rights are amortized according to the unit of production (UOP) method over total proved reserves;

• Exploration and appraisal: geological and geophysical costs are charged against income as incurred. Costs directly associated with an exploration well are initially recognized within tangible assets in progress, as "exploration and appraisal costs - unproved" (exploration wells in progress) until the drilling of the well is completed and can continue to be capitalized in the following 12-month period pending the evaluation of drilling results (suspended exploration wells). If, at the end of this period, it is ascertained that the result is negative (no hydrocarbon found) or that the discovery is not sufficiently significant to justify the development, the wells are declared dry/unsuccessful and the related costs written-off. Conversely, these costs continue to be capitalized if and until: (i) the well has found a sufficient quantity of reserves to justify its completion as a producing well, and (ii) the entity is making sufficient progress

1 Further information is available in the note 26 "Discontinued operations, assets held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale".

2 The effects related to the adoption of SEM are disclosed in the note 2 "Changes in accounting policies".

Eni Interim Consolidated Report66

Notes to the Financial Statements

assessing the reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project; on the contrary, the capitalized costs are recognized in the income statements as write-off. Analogous recognition criteria are adopted for the costs related to the appraisal activity. When proved reserves of oil and/or natural gas are determined, the relevant expenditure recognized as unproved is reclassified to proved exploration and appraisal costs, within tangible assets in progress. When the reclassification is recognized and whether there is any indication of impairment, the carrying amount of the costs to reclassify as proved is tested for impairment considering the higher of their value in use and their fair value less costs of disposal. From the commencement of production, proved exploration and appraisal costs are depreciated according to the UOP method, considering proved developed reserves;

• Development: development costs, including the costs related to unsuccessful and damaged development wells, are capitalized as "Tangible asset in progress – proved". From the commencement of production, proved tangible assets are depreciated according to the UOP method over the proved developed reserves. When development projects are unfeasible/not carried on, the related costs are written-off when it is decided to abandon the project. The carrying amount of proved tangible assets is tested for impairment considering the higher of their value in use and their fair value less costs of disposal.

The report includes selected explanatory notes.

Current income taxes have been calculated based on the estimated taxable profit of the interim period. Current tax assets and liabilities have been measured at the amount expected to be paid to/recovered from the tax Authorities, using tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period and the tax rates estimated on an annual basis.

Investments in subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates as of June 30, 2016 are presented in the annex "List of companies owned by Eni SpA as of June 30, 2016". This annex includes also the changes in the scope of consolidation.

The Interim Financial Statements as at June 30, 2016, were approved by Eni's Board of Directors on July 28, 2016. The external auditor EY SpA carried out a limited review of the Interim Financial Statements; a limited review is significantly less in scope than an audit performed in accordance with the generally accepted auditing standards.

Amounts in the financial statements and in the notes are expressed in millions of euros (€ million).

2Changes in accounting policies

In accordance with IAS 8 "Accounting Policies, Changes in Accounting Estimates and Errors", the adoption of SEM represents a voluntary change in accounting policy, in order to increase the comparability with the companies operating in the same industry and provide a reliable and more relevant financial information. SEM is applied retrospectively; therefore, comparative amounts have been restated. Under the previous accounting policy: (i) the costs for the acquisition of exploration rights were amortized on a straight-line basis over the exploration period as contractually established; (ii) the costs associated with exploration activities were initially capitalized, in order to reflect their nature as capital expenditure, and fully amortized as incurred.

The line items affected by the new accounting policy are presented below.

The international financial reporting standards effective from January 1, 2016 did not have a significant impact on the financial statements.

3Significant accounting estimates or judgements

The significant accounting estimates and judgements are disclosed in the last Annual Report, except for those related to the accounting of oil & gas activities under the SEM.

In particular, the determination of whether potentially economic oil and natural gas reserves have been discovered by an exploration well is usually made within a year after well completion, but can take longer, depending on the complexity of the project and on the size of capital expenditure required. Therefore, exploration wells may remain suspended on the balance sheet for several years, while additional appraisal activities on the potential oil and natural gas field are performed or while the optimum development plans are established. All such carried costs are reviewed on at least an annual basis to confirm the continued intent to develop, or otherwise to extract value from the discovery.

Notes to the Financial Statements

4International Financial Reporting Standards not yet adopted

Besides the International Financial Reporting Standards not yet adopted that are disclosed in the last Annual Report, the IASB issued on April 12, 2016 the document "Clarifications to IFRS 15 Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which clarifies some requirements and provides additional transitional relief for companies that are implementing the new standard. The amendments to IFRS 15 shall be applied for annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 January 2018.

Eni is currently reviewing the International Financial Reporting Standards not yet adopted in order to determine the likely impact on the Group's financial statements.

Quoted securities amounting to €52 million (€39 million at December 31, 2015) were issued by financial institutions with a rating from Aaa to Baa3 (Moody's) and from AAA a BBB- (S&P).

Securities held for non-operating purposes of €362 million related to the Group's insurance company Eni Insurance Ltd.

Securities held for operating purposes of €282 million as of December 31, 2015, were designated to hedge the loss provisions of the Group's insurance company Eni Insurance Ltd. From January 1, 2016, insurance companies are required to meet certain capital and solvency ratios as minimum requirements to continue performing the insurance activity based on the provisions of EU Solvency II Directive (the so-called Minimum Capital Requirement - MCR - and Solvency Capital Requirement - SCR). Therefore, while it is advisable to maintain a sound investment policy of the proceeds associated with the activity, it no longer necessary to commit the financial assets of the insurance company to funding the loss provisions. Accordingly, those assets, which mainly comprise available-forsale securities and bank deposits, have ceased to be classified as held for operating purposes and have been netted against finance debt in determining the Group net borrowing at December 31, 2015.

The effects of fair value measurement of securities are reported in note 27 – Shareholders' equity.

The fair value was determined based on market quotations. The fair value hierarchy is level 1.

The value also includes amounts related to: (i) trade receivables owed by Egyptian State-owned companies overdue for €535 million. This amount was reduced from €771 million outstanding at December 31, 2015, due to reimbursements associated with the settlement of certain commercial agreements and other arrangements with the counterparties intended to reduce overdue amounts. Further recovery actions are ongoing leveraging on the established relationships with Egyptian counterparties; (ii) trade receivable owed by state-owned companies in Iran due, essentially, to a settlement agreement signed in 2015 regarding the recovery of past costs associated to certain petroleum projects already completed for €306 million.

Notes to the Financial Statements

of the gas sales. A memorandum of understanding has been signed with PDVSA aiming at securitizing the proceeds from the gas sales by placing onto a dedicated escrow account the revenues that PDVSA is expected to cash in from: (i) gas export; and (ii) direct Eni's commercialization of PDVSA's condensates volumes obtained from the separation process of Perla gas production. Negotiations are in progress to finalize in details both the agreements.

Financing receivables for operating purposes outstanding at December 31, 2015, of €287 million relating to Eni Insurance Ltd were reclassified as financing receivables not associated with operating activities following the adoption of the provisions of EU Solvency II Directive on capital requirements to be met for operating in the insurance activity.

Those receivables date back to few years ago. To recover that amount, Eni commenced two arbitration proceedings that led respectively to the issuance of a final ruling in 2014, in the case of the operated project, and a partial ruling in 2013, both of which with a favorable outcome. In the case of the partial award, a local court has dictated certain restrictions, which prevent the Arbitration Committee from issuing a final award; (ii) receivables of €975 million due in relation to its share of cost at certain projects operated by Eni. Following proposal received from the Nigerian Ministry of Petroleum negotiations are ongoing aimed to the reimbursement of the outstanding amounts.

Because of the short-term maturity and conditions of remuneration of trade receivables, the fair value approximated the carrying amount.

Receivables with related parties are described in note 37 – Transactions with related parties.

In preparing this interim report for the first half of 2016, management reviewed all the impairment indicators associated with the trading environment and did not recognize any major changes from the pricing assumptions incorporated in the evaluations of the annual report 2015. Management reaffirmed its crude oil pricing projections used in the Company's industrial plan for the years 2016-2019. Management considered an ongoing recovery in crude oil prices from the lows seen in the first quarter 2016, updated forward prices for future deliveries, recent estimates made by financial analysts and research boutiques, as well as internal assessment about market fundamentals which are currently pointing to a progressive rebalancing of supply and demand on the back of capex cuts made by international oil companies and appreciable trends in global crude oil demand.

The updated estimate of the weighted-average cost of capital to the Group (WACC) did not exhibits any significant change from the value used in the annual report 2015 because the improvement recorded in risk-free rates, cost of borrowings to the Group and an increased leverage slightly exceeded the increased volatility of the Eni share and a worsened country risk premium. Management estimates the impairment test rates applicable to expected future cash flow deriving from of the continuing use of the Group CGUs by adjusting the Group WACC to factor in a higher or lower-than average spread for the country risk. Finally, adding to an improved impairment indicator picture, the excess of the Group net assets over the Group market capitalization has been absorbed as of June 30, 2016, compared to a negative 10% at 2015 closing date. However, in contrast to crude oil prices, gas prices and refining margins in Europe weakened further from 2015 due to continued oversupplies and excess capacity in the Group European reference markets, triggering a downward review both on short-term and long-term.

Based on these considerations, management made the following procedures: (i) the impairment test of Exploration & Production CGUs outside Italy was not performed due to stable trends in crude oil prices and magnitude of the impairment charges taken in 2015 consolidated accounts; (ii) the impairment test was performed at certain Italian CGUs due to lower gas prices scenario in Europe. These CGUs were selected based on the amount of capital employed and small headroom; (iii) refineries with large book values were tested for impairment due to deteriorated refining margins; (iv) power plants were also tested in the light of weak fundamentals for the wholesale marketing of electricity.

No significant charges were recorded in connection with this review except for certain Italian gas properties which were impaired for an overall amount of €105 million. Furthermore, capital expenditures incurred in the period for safety and stay-in business purposes were written-off as they related to certain R&M CGUs which were fully impaired in previous reporting periods.

The criteria adopted by Eni in identifying the Group Cash Generating Unit (CGU) and in reviewing the recoverability of carrying amounts remained unchanged in respect of the Annual Report 2015 (see note 16 - Property, plant and equipment).

Finally, as discussed under note 26 - Discontinued operations, assets held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale, in this interim consolidated report for the first half 2016, Eni's chemical business no longer qualifies as assets held for sale. Therefore, management estimated its value-in-use retrospectively as of January 1, 2016 in order to amend the opening balance of the interim report in line with the provisions of IFRS 5 which require in case of cessation of classification as held for sale, that financial statements be amended retrospectively as though the disposal group never qualified as held for sale to evaluate Versalis by aligning its book value to the recoverable amount, given by the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value-in-use. In reviewing the value-inuse of Versalis as of June 30, 2016, management considered the impairment indicator of the negative outcome of the sale process of a majority stake of Eni's subsidiary. However, management considered to confirm the value-inuse determined in order to amend the first half report opening balances in light of current and expected business trends: (i) expectations of an EBITDA margin better than management's plans due to slightly improving products margins, which in spite of lower commodity prices benefitted from reduced oil-based feedstock costs. This trend was mainly recorded in the polyolefin business and other basic petrochemicals commodities; styrene was stable, while elastomers are seen trending down; (ii) a better expected performance on part of cash flow from operations and free cash flow; (iii) invariance of the impairment test rate.

Goodwill acquired through business combinations has been allocated to the cash generating units ("CGUs") that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the acquisition.

In the Gas & Power segment, the goodwill allocated to the CGU domestic gas market was recognized upon the buyout of the former Italgas SpA minorities in 2003 through a public offering (€706 million). The Company engaged in the retail sale of gas to the residential sector. In addition, further goodwill amounts have been allocated over the years following business combinations with small, local companies selling gas to residential customers in focused territorial reach and municipalities synergic to Eni's activities, the latest acquisition of which was Acam Clienti SpA finalized in 2014 (with an allocated goodwill of €32 million). In the first half of 2016, management did not identify any impairment indicator. The criteria adopted by Eni in reviewing the recoverability of the goodwill and the relevant sensitivity analysis remained unchanged in respect of the Annual Report 2015.

Goodwill allocated to the CGU European gas market amounting to €188 million was recorded following the business combinations of Altergaz SA (now Eni Gas & Power France SA) in France, Nuon Belgium NV (now merged in Eni Gas & Power NV) in Belgium, whose carrying amounts are valued on a stand-alone basis. The management did not identify any impairment indicator in the first half of 2016.

Acquisitions and subscriptions directed to equity-accounted entities of €1,151 million primarily related to the prorata subscription of the share capital of Saipem SpA for €1,069 million (see Other changes of this paragraph) and to subscription of the share capital of Angola LNG Ltd for €62 million which is currently engaged in upgrading a liquefaction plant in order to monetize Eni's gas reserves in that country (Eni's interest in the project being 13.6%).

Divestments and reimbursements of €500 million are stated net of gains on disposals (€32 million) and primarily related to a capital reimbursement of €116 million relating to Angola LNG Ltd and the sale of 2.22% interest in Snam SpA for €368 million. This disposal was carried out according with to two different modalities: (i) exercise of the conversion right by the bondholders of convertible bonds related to 76,888,264 shares, representing approximately 2.2% of the share capital, for a total consideration of €332 million corresponding to a price of €4.32 per share and a loss recognized in profit and loss of €32 million; (ii) the sale of the remaining 792,619 shares on the market for a total consideration of €4 million and a gain recognized in profit and loss of less than €1 million.

The share of profit and loss of equity-accounted investments of €81 million primarily related to CARDÓN IV SA (€41 million) and Saipem SpA (28 million).

Deductions for dividend distribution of €34 million primarily related to Transmed SpA (€11 million) and Eteria Parohis Aeriou Thessalonikis AE (€10 million).

Currency translation differences of €50 million were essentially related to translation of entities accounts denominated in US dollar (€41 million).

Other changes of €565 million include the initial recognition of the retained interest in Saipem SpA of €564 million. On January 22, 2016, Eni closed the sale of a 12.503% stake of Saipem share capital to CDP Equity SpA (Former Fondo Strategico Italiano SpA). Concurrently, a shareholder agreement between Eni and CDP Equity SpA entered into force, which established the joint control of the two parties over the target entity. Those transactions triggered loss of control of Eni over Saipem. Therefore, from the transaction date, Eni has derecognized assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses of the former subsidiary from the consolidated accounts. The retained interest of 30.55% has been recognized as an investment in an equity-accounted joint venture with an initial carrying amount aligned to the share price at the closing date of the transaction (€4.2 per share) recognizing a loss through profit and loss of €441 million. This loss has been recognized in the Group consolidated accounts for the first half 2016 as part of gains and losses of discontinued operations. This value becomes the cost on initial recognition of the investment in Saipem for the subsequent application of equity accounting. The carrying amount of the interest retained in Saipem exhibits a negative difference over the corresponding fraction of the investee's net assets for €497 million. This difference has been allocated in reduction to goodwill for €222 million and for the residual €275 million in reduction to the investee's property, plant and equipment, and hence amortized along the residual useful life of Saipem's plants and equipment. Within the end of February 2016, Eni subscribed pro-quota the share capital increase of Saipem (cash out Eni of €1,069 million). By using the proceeds from the share capital increase, Saipem reimbursed the intercompany loans owed to Eni (€5,818 million as of December 31, 2015). At June 30, 2016, the carrying amount of the interest in Saipem SpA was €1,668 million.

Management performed the impairment test of Eni's investment in Saipem considering the impairment indicator given by the excess of its carrying amount over the market capitalization of Saipem's share at the closing date. To that end, management obtained from the investee a minimum set of information, including financial information publicly available, and verified consistency between the impairment test methodologies of Eni and Saipem, the coherence of each party's assumptions about long-term trends in crude oil prices and capital plans of the oil industry and finally the estimation of future expected cash flows to determine the value-in-use of the net assets of

Notes to the Financial Statements

the investee. Saipem performed the impairment test of all of its identified CGUs (the business units of offshore and onshore constructions, rigs and onshore drilling activities as well as other minor assets) which covered more than 90% of its capital employed. The value-in-use of those CGUs was estimated based on the future expected cash flows of the current industrial plan 2016-2019, which was updated to factor in the most recent business. The estimate of the value-in-use of Eni's interest in Saipem exceeded for a significant amount its carrying amount. This headroom reduces to zero in case of a severe contraction in the operating results of the investee (a haircut of more than 60% applied to all plan periods and on the perpetual result). Based on management evaluation, this zeroing scenario is so wide as to absorb any detected difference between Eni's own Brent assumptions and those incorporated in Saipem's financial projections.

Investments in subsidiaries, joint arrangements and associates as of June 30, 2016 are presented in the annex "List of companies owned by Eni SpA as of June 30, 2016".

Receivables from divestments amounting to €387 million (€567 million at December 31, 2015) included: (i) a receivable of €309 million (€463 million at December 31, 2015) related to the divestment of a 1.71% interest in the Kashagan project to the local partner KazMunayGas on the basis of the agreements defined with the international partners of the North Caspian Sea PSA and the Kazakh government, which became effective. The reimbursement of the receivable is provided for in three annual instalments commencing from the date in which production target agreed is reached. The receivable accrues interest income at market rates. The current portion is reported in note 7 - Other current assets; (ii) a residual amount of €1 million is outstanding (€25 million at December 31, 2015) following compensation agreed with the Republic of Venezuela for the expropriated Dación oil field in 2006. In the first half of 2016, reimbursements amounted to €23 million related to the residual interests accrued as of December 31, 2015.

The fair value related to derivative financial instruments is disclosed in note 25 – Derivative financial instruments.

Other non-current assets amounted to €512 million (€533 million at December 31, 2015), of which €229 million (€277 million at December 31, 2015) were deferred costs of take-or-pay gas volumes in connection with the Company's long-term supply contracts. The amount was recognized due to the obligation to pay in advance the contractual price of the volumes of gas, which the Company failed to collect up to the minimum contractual take in previous reporting periods in order to fulfill the take-or-pay clause provided by the relevant long-term supply contracts. The Company is entitled to off-take the prepaid volumes in future years alongside contract execution, up to contract expiration or in a shorter term as the case may be. Those deferred costs, which are equivalent to a receivable in-kind, are stated at the purchase cost or the net realizable value, whichever is lower. Prior-year impairment losses are reversed up to the purchase cost, whenever market conditions indicate that impairment no longer exits or may have decreased. In the first half 2016, based on this accounting principle an impairment of €29 million was recorded. The reduction of €19 million in deferred costs at the reporting date compared to 2015 was due to the reclassification to other current assets of volumes that are expected to be recovered by June 30, 2017. A portion of the deferred costs was classified as non-current assets, because the Company plans to lift the prepaid quantities beyond the term of 12 months. In spite of weak market conditions in the European gas sector due to sluggish demand growth and strong competitive pressures fuelled by oversupplies, management plans to recover volumes underlying the deferred cost within the plan horizon. Management plans to achieve this by leveraging on an improved competitiveness of the Company in the gas market thanks to the benefit of contract renegotiations, an expected reduction in the Company's annual minimum obligations, and other actions of commercial optimizations which will leverage the Company's simultaneous presence in several markets and asset availability (logistics capacity, transportation rights).

Eni entered into long-term borrowing facilities with the European Investment Bank. These borrowing facilities are subject to the maintenance of certain financial ratios based on Eni's Consolidated Financial Statements or a minimum level of credit rating. According to the agreements, should the Company lose the minimum credit rating, new guarantees would be required to be agreed upon with the European Investment Bank. In addition, Eni entered into long-term and medium-term facilities with Citibank Europe Plc providing for conditions similar to those applied by the European Investment Bank. At June 30, 2016, debts subjected to restrictive covenants amounted to €1,993 million (€2,127 million and December 31, 2015). Eni complied with those covenants. Eni believes that any non-compliance with those covenants in the future can be managed through contractual agreements and the Company's ability to finance its operations will not be affected.

In the first half 2016, Eni issued a non-dilutive equity-linked bond for a total nominal value of €400 million with a redemption value linked to the market price of Eni's shares. The bondholders will have "conversion" rights at certain times and/or in the presence of certain events, while the bonds will be cash-settled. Accordingly, the issue and the conversion of the bonds will not give right to any share of Eni and there will be no dilution for shareholders. To hedge its exposure, Eni purchased cash-settled call options relating to Eni shares that will be settled on a net cash basis. The bonds will have a six-year maturity and will pay no interest and, accordingly, the coupon will be equal to 0%. The bonds were issued at a price equal to

Notes to the Financial Statements

100.5% of par and will be redeemed at par at maturity, unless previously converted or redeemed under their terms. The initial conversion price for the bonds has been set at €17.6222, representing a 35% premium above the share reference price of €13.0535 determined as the arithmetic average of the daily volume-weighted average prices of an ordinary share of Eni on the Milan Stock Exchange over a period of seven consecutive scheduled trading days starting from 7 April 2016. The settlement and closing took place on 13 April 2016. The convertible bond is measured at amortized cost. The conversion option, embedded in the financial instrument issued, and the call option on Eni's shares acquired are valued at fair value with effects recognized through profit and loss.

The bond convertible into ordinary shares of Snam SpA, amounting to €339 million as of 31 December 2015, expired on 18 January 2016. Following the exercise of the conversion rights, Eni delivered to the bondholders 76,888,264 shares ordinary representing approximately 2.20% of the share capital of Snam SpA. The residual bonds, amounting to €3.4 million, for which it was not exercised the conversion rights, were redeemed for cash.

As of June 30, 2016, Eni had undrawn long-term committed borrowing facilities of €6,572 million (€6,577 at December 31, 2015), of which €1,850 million due in 2017. Those facilities bore interest rates reflecting prevailing conditions on the marketplace.

Eni has in place a program for the issuance of Euro Medium Term Notes up to €20 billion, of which about €14.9 billion were drawn as of June 30, 2016.

The Group has credit ratings of BBB+ outlook stable and A-2, respectively for long and short-term debt, assigned by Standard & Poor's and Baa1 outlook stable and P-2, respectively for long and short-term debt, assigned by Moody's. Eni's credit rating is linked to the Company's industrial fundamentals and trends in the trading environment and, in addition, to the sovereign credit rating of Italy. Based on the methodologies used by Standard & Poor's and Moody's, a potential downgrade of Italy's credit rating may trigger a potential knock-on effect on the credit rating of Italian issuers such as Eni.

Fair value of long-term debt, including the current portion of long-term debt, amounted to €24,266 million (€23,899 million at December 31, 2015):

The fair value of bonds was calculated by discounting the expected future cash flows at discount rates ranging from -0.2% to 1.9% (0% and 2.7% at December 31, 2015).

As of June 30, 2016, Eni did not pledge restricted deposits as collateral against its borrowings.

Derivative fair values were estimated on the basis of market quotations provided by primary info-provider or, alternatively, appropriate valuation techniques generally adopted in the marketplace.

Fair values of non-hedging derivatives consisted of derivatives that did not meet the formal criteria to be designated as hedges under IFRS because they were entered into in order to manage net exposures to foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices. Therefore, such derivatives did not relate to specific trade or financing transactions.

Fair values of trading derivatives consisted of derivatives entered for trading purposes and proprietary trading.

Fair value of cash flow hedge derivatives related to the hedges entered by the Gas & Power segment. These derivatives were entered into to hedge variability in future cash flows associated with highly probable future sale transactions of gas or electricity or on already contracted sales due to different indexation mechanism of supply costs versus selling prices. A similar scheme applies to exchange rate hedging derivatives. The effects of the measurement at fair value of cash flow hedge derivatives are given in note 27 – Shareholders'

equity and in note 31 – Operating expenses. Information on hedged risks and hedging policies is disclosed in note 29 – Guarantees, commitments and risks - Risk factors.

Derivatives embedded in the pricing formulas related to certain long-term supply contracts of gas in the Exploration & Production segment.

Options embedded in convertible bonds of €2 million as of June 30, 2016, related to equity-linked cashsettled bonds issued in the first 2016. Options embedded in convertible bonds of €26 million as of December 31, 2015, related to the convertible bond into ordinary shares of Snam SpA expired on January 18, 2016. More information is disclosed in note 21 – Long-term debt and current portion of long-term debt. During the first half of 2016, there were no transfers between the different hierarchy levels of fair value.

26 Discontinued operations, assets held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale

Discontinued operations

Saipem

On January 22, 2016, following the fulfillment of all the conditions precedent, among which the consensus of the Antitrust Authority, Eni closed the sale transaction of 12.503% of the share capital of Saipem SpA to CDP Equity SpA. The transaction referred to 55,176,364 Saipem shares at a price of €8.3956 per share for a total consideration of €463 million. At the same date, the shareholder agreement between Eni and CDP Equity entered into force and established the joint control of Saipem. Therefore, following the loss of control, Saipem has been derecognized from Eni's consolidated accounts and accounted for using the equity method. At the date of the loss of the control (January 22, 2016), the residual interest of 30.42% in the former subsidiary was aligned to the market price at the closing of €4.2 per share corresponding to a carrying amount of €564 million with a charge through profit and loss of €441 million (considering the carrying value at December 31, 2015).

Versalis

Due to termination of the negations with US-based SK hedge fund who had shown an interest in acquiring a 70% stake in Versalis SpA, Eni's chemical segment no longer qualifies as held for sale in accordance to IFRS 5. Therefore, Eni's consolidated accounts as of and for the six months ended June 30, 2016 have been prepared accounting this business as part of the continuing operations. Based on IFRS 5 provisions, in case of cessation of classification as held for sale, management is required to amend financial statements retrospectively as though the disposal group never qualified as held for sale. Accordingly, the opening balance of the interim consolidated accounts 2016 have been amended to reinstate the criteria of the continuing use to evaluate Versalis by aligning its book value to the recoverable amount, given by the higher of fair value less cost to sell and value-in-use. Under IFRS 5, Versalis was measured at the lower of its carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell. Management estimated the value-in-use of the fixed assets of Versalis' business units by identifying a single Cash Generating Unit consistently with Eni's industrial plan for the four-year period 2016-2019 that considered Versalis as an integrated unit with a view to disposing or monetizing it as a whole. The value-in-use was estimated by discounting the future expected cash flows of the industrial plan of a standalone Versalis at a 10% rate, which factored in the earnings volatility of a pool of chemical peers of Versalis, thus determining a beta parameter independent form Eni in the same manner as the Gas & Power segment. Further information is provided in note 10 – Property, plant and equipment. This amendment in Versalis evaluation marginally affected the opening balance of Eni's consolidated net assets (an increase of €294 million) and was neutral on the Group's net financial position. In presenting the Group's consolidated results, Versalis profit and loss accounts and balances have been recognized as part of the Group's assets and liabilities and revenues and expenses. Results of the comparative periods have been reclassified accordingly. In the Group segment information, Versalis results have been reported as part of the Refining & Marketing and Chemical segment because a single manager is accountable of the performance at both operating segments and the two segments exhibit similar economic characteristics.

The main economic and financial data of the discontinued operations net of intragroup transactions are provided below.

Assets held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale

Assets held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale of €99 million and €24 million, respectively, related to the sale of 100% stake of the subsidiary Eni Hungaria Zrt, a company operating in the retail and wholesale marketing of fuels with activities in Hungary. The subsidiary was classified as assets held for sale following the sign at the end of 2015 of a binding agreement with MOL Group, a Hungarian oil&gas company. The finalization is expected in the third quarter of 2016. The carrying amount of assets held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets held for sale amounted to €85 million (of which current assets for €22 million) and €24 million (of which current liabilities for €23 million), respectively. Eni will continue to operate in those countries through the wholesale marketing of lubricants.

In the first half of 2016, Eni sold to MOL Group, a Hungarian oil&gas company, a 100% stake of the subsidiary Eni Slovenija doo, a company operating in the retail and wholesale marketing of fuels with activities in Slovenia.

29 Guarantees, commitments and risks

Guarantees

As of June 30, 2016, guarantees decreased compared with the Annual Report 2015 as a result of the deconsolidation following the sale of the control of the Engineering & Construction segment (€3,567 million) and the settlement of the guarantees given by Eni on behalf of the Saipem group (€530 million).

The amount of other guarantees remained substantially unchanged compared with the Annual Report 2015.

Commitments and risks

The amount of commitments and risks remained substantially unchanged compared with the Annual Report 2015.

Risk factors

Financial risks

Financial risks are managed in respect of guidelines issued by the Board of Directors of Eni SpA in its role of directing and setting of the risk limits, targeting to align and centrally coordinate Group companies' policies on financial risks ("Guidelines on financial risks management and control"). The "Guidelines" define for each financial risk the key components of the management and control process, such as the aim of the risk management, the valuation methodology, the structure of limits, the relation model and the hedging and mitigation instruments.

Market risk

Market risk is the possibility that changes in currency exchange rates, interest rates or commodity prices will adversely affect the value of the Group's financial assets, liabilities or expected future cash flows. The Company actively manages market risk in accordance with a set of policies and guidelines that provide a centralized model of handling finance, treasury and risk management operations based on the Company's departments of operational finance: the parent company's (Eni SpA) finance department, Eni Finance International SA, Eni Finance USA Inc and Banque Eni SA, which is subject to certain bank regulatory restrictions preventing the Group's exposure to concentrations of credit risk, and Eni Trading & Shipping, that is in charge to execute certain activities relating to commodity derivatives. In particular, Eni's finance department and Eni Finance International SA manage subsidiaries' financing requirements in and outside Italy, respectively, covering funding requirements and using available surpluses. All transactions concerning currencies and derivative contracts on interest rates and currencies different from commodities are managed by the parent company. The commodity risk associated with commercial exposures of each business unit (Eni's Divisions or subsidiaries) is pooled and managed by the Midstream Department which manages the market risk component in a view of portfolio, while Eni Trading & Shipping SpA executes the negotiation of commodity derivatives over the market. Eni SpA and Eni Trading & Shipping SpA (also through its subsidiary Eni Trading & Shipping Inc) perform trading activities in financial derivatives on external trading venues, such as European and non-European regulated markets, Multilateral Trading Facility (MTF), Organized Trading Facility (OTF), or similar and brokerage platforms (i.e. SEF), and over the counter on a bilateral basis with external counterparties. Other legal entities belonging to Eni that require financial derivatives enter into these operations through Eni Trading & Shipping and Eni SpA based on the relevant asset class expertise. Eni uses derivative financial instruments (derivatives) in order to minimize exposure to market risks related to fluctuations in exchange rates relating to those transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency (the euro) and interest rates, as well as to optimize exposure to commodity prices fluctuations taking into account the currency in which commodities are quoted. Eni monitors every activity in derivatives classified as risk-reducing (in particular, back-to-back activities, flow hedging activities, asset-backed hedging activities and portfolio-management activities) directly or indirectly related to covered industrial assets, so as to effectively optimize the risk profile to which Eni is exposed or could be exposed. If the result of the monitoring shows those derivatives should not

be considered as risk reducing, these derivatives are reclassified in proprietary trading. As the proprietary trading is considered separately from the other activities in specific portfolios of Eni Trading & Shipping, its exposure is subject to specific controls, both in terms of Value at Risk (VaR) and stop loss and in terms of nominal gross value. For Eni, the gross nominal value of proprietary trading activities is compared with the limits set by the relevant international standards. The framework defined by Eni's policies and guidelines provides that the valuation and control of market risk is performed on the basis of maximum tolerable levels of risk exposure defined in terms of: (i) limits of stop loss, which expresses the maximum tolerable amount of losses associated with a certain portfolio of assets over a pre-defined time horizon; (ii) limits of revision strategy, which consist in the triggering of a revision process of the strategy in the event of exceeding the level of profit and loss given; and (iii) VaR which measures the maximum potential loss of the portfolio, given a certain confidence level and holding period, assuming adverse changes in market variables and taking into account of the correlation among the different positions held in the portfolio. Eni's finance department defines the maximum tolerable levels of risk exposure to changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates in terms of VaR, pooling Group companies' risk positions maximizing, when possible, the benefits of the netting activity. Eni's calculation and valuation techniques for interest rate and foreign currency exchange rate risks are in accordance with banking standards, as established by the Basel Committee for bank activities surveillance. Tolerable levels of risk are based on a conservative approach, considering the industrial nature of the Company. Eni's guidelines prescribe that Eni Group companies minimize such kinds of market risks by transferring risk exposure to the parent company finance department. Eni's guidelines define rules to manage the commodity risk aiming at optimizing core activities and pursuing preset targets of stabilizing industrial and commercial margins. The maximum tolerable level of risk exposure is defined in terms of VaR, limits of revision strategy, stop loss and volumes in connection with exposure deriving from commercial activities, as well as exposure deriving from proprietary trading, exclusively managed by Eni Trading & Shipping. Internal mandates to manage the commodity risk provide for a mechanism of allocation of the Group maximum tolerable risk level to each business unit. In this framework, Eni Trading & Shipping, in addition to managing risk exposure associated with its own commercial activity and proprietary trading, pools the requests for negotiating commodity derivatives and executes them on the marketplace.

According to the targets of financial structure included in the financial plan approved by the Board of Directors, Eni has decided to retain a cash reserve to face any extraordinary requirement. Such reserve is managed by Eni's finance department with the aim of optimizing the efficiency and ensuring maximum protection of the capital and its immediate liquidity within the limits assigned. The management of strategic cash is part of the asset management pursued through transactions on own risk in view of optimizing financial returns, while respecting authorized risk levels, safeguarding the Company's assets and retaining quick access to liquidity.

The four different market risks, whose management and control have been summarized above, are described below.

Market risk - Exchange rate

Exchange rate risk derives from the fact that Eni's operations are conducted in currencies other than the euro (mainly the U.S. dollar). Revenues and expenses denominated in foreign currencies may be significantly affected by exchange rates fluctuations due to conversion differences on single transactions arising from the time lag existing between execution and definition of relevant contractual terms (economic risk) and conversion of foreign currency-denominated trade and financing payables and receivables (transactional risk). Exchange rate fluctuations affect the Group's reported results and net equity as financial statements of subsidiaries denominated in currencies other than the euro are translated from their functional currency into euro. Generally, an appreciation of the U.S. dollar versus the euro has a positive impact on Eni's results of operations, and vice versa. Eni's foreign exchange risk management policy is to minimize transactional exposures arising from foreign currency movements and to optimize exposures arising from commodity risk. Eni does not undertake any hedging activity for risks deriving from the translation of foreign currency denominated profits or assets and liabilities of subsidiaries which prepare financial statements in a currency other than the euro, except for single transactions to be evaluated on a case-by-case basis. Effective management of exchange rate risk is performed within Eni's central finance

department which pools Group companies' positions, hedging the Group net exposure by using certain derivatives, such as currency swaps, forwards and options. Such derivatives are evaluated at fair value based on market prices provided by specialized info-providers. Changes in fair value of those derivatives are normally recognized through profit and loss, as they do not meet the formal criteria to be recognized as hedges. The VaR techniques are based on variance/covariance simulation models and are used to monitor the risk exposure arising from possible future changes in market values over a 24-hour period within a 99% confidence level and a 20-day holding period.

Market risk - Interest rate

Changes in interest rates affect the market value of financial assets and liabilities of the Company and the level of finance charges. Eni's interest rate risk management policy is to minimize risk with the aim to achieve financial structure objectives defined and approved in the management's finance plans.

Borrowing requirements of Group companies are pooled by the Group's central finance department in order to manage net positions and the funding of portfolio developments consistently with management's plans while maintaining a level of risk exposure within prescribed limits. Eni enters into interest rate derivative transactions, in particular interest rate swaps, to manage effectively the balance between fixed and floating rate debt. Such derivatives are evaluated at fair value based on market prices provided from specialized sources. Changes in fair value of those derivatives are normally recognized through the profit and loss account, as they do not meet the formal criteria to be accounted for under the hedge accounting method. VaR deriving from interest rate exposure is measured daily based on a variance/covariance model, with a 99% confidence level and a 20-day holding period.

Market risk - Commodity

Eni's results of operations are affected by changes in the prices of commodities. A decrease in oil&gas prices generally has a negative impact on Eni's results of operations and vice versa, and may jeopardize the achievement of the financial targets preset in the Company's four-year plans and budget. The commodity price risk arises in connection with the following exposures: (i) strategic exposure: exposures directly identified by the Board of Directors as a result of strategic investment decisions or outside the planning horizon of risk. These exposures include those associated with the program for the production of proved and unproved oil&gas reserves, long-term gas supply contracts for the portion not balanced by ongoing or highly probable sale contracts, refining margins identified by the Board of Directors as of strategic nature (the remaining volumes can be allocated to the active management of the margin or to asset-backed hedging activities) and minimum compulsory stocks; (ii) commercial exposure: includes the exposures related to the components underlying the contractual arrangements of industrial and commercial activities and, if related to take-or-pay commitments, to the components related to the time horizon of the four-year plan and budget and the relevant activities of risk management. Commercial exposures are characterized by a systematic risk management activity conducted on the basis of risk/return assumptions by implementing one or more strategies and subjected to specific risk limits (VaR, stop loss). In particular, the commercial exposures include exposures subjected to asset-backed hedging activities, arising from the flexibility/optionality of assets; and (iii) proprietary trading exposure: includes operations independently conducted for profit purposes in the short term, and normally not finalized to the delivery, both within the commodity and financial markets, with the aim to obtain a profit upon the occurrence of a favourable result in the market, in accordance with specific limits of authorized risk (VaR, stop loss). In the proprietary trading exposures are included the origination activities, if not connected to contractual or physical assets.

Strategic risk is not subject to systematic activity of management/coverage that is eventually carried out only in case of specific market or business conditions.

Because of the extraordinary nature, hedging activities related to strategic risks are delegated to the top management. Strategic risk is subject to measuring and monitoring but is not subject to specific risk limits. If previously authorized by the Board of Directors, exposures related to strategic risk can be used in combination with other commercial exposures in order to exploit opportunities for natural compensation between the risks (natural hedge) and consequently reduce the use of derivatives (by activating logics of internal market). Eni manages exposure to commodity price risk arising in normal trading and commercial activities in view of achieving stable economic results. The commodity risk and the exposure to commodity prices fluctuations embedded in commodities quoted in currencies other than the euro at each business line (Eni's Divisions or subsidiaries) is pooled and managed by the Portfolio Management unit for commodities, and by Eni's finance department for exchange rate requirements. The Portfolio Management unit manages business lines' risk exposures to commodities, pooling and optimizing Group companies' exposures and hedging net exposures on the trading venues through the trading unit of Eni Trading & Shipping. In order to manage commodity price risk, Eni uses derivatives traded on the organized markets MTF, OTF and derivatives traded over the counter (swaps, forward, contracts for differences and options on commodities) with the underlying commodities being crude oil, refined products, electricity or emission certificates. Such derivatives are evaluated at fair value on the basis of market prices provided from specialized sources or, absent market prices, on the basis of estimates provided by brokers or suitable valuation techniques. VaR deriving from commodity exposure is measured daily based on a historical simulation technique, with a 95% confidence level and a one-day holding period.

Market risk - Strategic liquidity

Market risk deriving from liquidity management is identified as the possibility that changes in prices of financial instruments (bonds, money market instruments and mutual funds) would affect the value of these instruments when evaluated at fair value. In order to manage the investment activity of the strategic liquidity, Eni defined a specific investment policy with aims and constraints in terms of financial activities and operational boundaries, as well as Governance guidelines regulating management and control systems. The setting up and maintenance of the reserve of strategic liquidity is mainly aimed to: (i) guarantee of financial flexibility. Liquidity should allow Eni Group to fund any extraordinary need (such as difficulty in access to credit, exogenous shock, macroeconomic environment, as well as merger and acquisitions); and (ii) ensure a full coverage of short-term debts and a coverage of medium and long-term financial debts due within a time horizon of 24 months, even in case of restrictions to credit.

Strategic liquidity management is regulated in terms of VaR (measured on the basis of a parametrical methodology with a one-day holding period and a 99% confidence level), stop loss and other operating limits in terms of concentration, duration, ratings, liquidity and instruments to invest on. Financial leverage or short selling is not allowed. Activities in terms of strategic liquidity management started in the second half of the year 2013 and throughout the course of the year 2015, the investment portfolio has maintained an average credit rating of A/A-. During the first half of 2016, the rating decreased to level A-/BBB+, accordingly with the decrease in the Company's credit rating.

The following table shows amounts in terms of VaR, recorded in first half 2016 (compared with 2015) relating to interest rate and exchange rate risks in the first section and commodity risk. Regarding the management of strategic liquidity, the sensitivity to change of interest rates is expressed by the values of "Dollar Value per Basis Point" (DVBP).

Credit risk

Credit risk is the potential exposure of the Group to losses in case counterparties fail to perform or pay amounts due. The Group manages differently credit risk depending on whether credit risk arises from exposure to financial counterparties or to customers relating to outstanding receivables. Individual business units and Eni's corporate financial and accounting units are responsible for managing credit risk arising in the normal course of the business.

The Group has established formal credit systems and processes to ensure that before trading with a new counterpart can start, its creditworthiness is assessed. In addition, credit litigation and receivable collection activities are assessed.

Eni's corporate units define directions and methods for quantifying and controlling customer's reliability. With regard to risk arising from financial counterparties deriving from current and strategic use of liquidity, Eni has established guidelines prior to entering into cash management and derivative contracts to assess the counterparty's financial soundness and rating in view of optimizing the risk profile of financial activities while pursuing operational targets. Maximum limits of risk exposure are set in terms of maximum amounts of credit exposures for categories of counterparties as defined by the Company's Board of Directors taking into account the credit ratings provided by primary credit rating agencies on the marketplace. Credit risk arising from financial counterparties is managed by the Group operating finance department, including Eni's subsidiary Eni Trading & Shipping which specifically engages in commodity derivatives transactions and by Group companies and Divisions, only in the case of physical transactions with financial counterparties consistently with the Group centralized finance model. Eligible financial counterparties are closely monitored to check exposures against limits assigned to each counterparty on a daily basis.

Liquidity risk

Liquidity risk is the risk that suitable sources of funding for the Group may not be available, or the Group is unable to sell its assets on the marketplace in order to meet short-term finance requirements and to settle obligations. Such a situation would negatively affect Group results, as it would result in the Company incurring higher borrowing expenses to meet its obligations or under the worst of conditions the inability of the Company to continue as a going concern. As part of its financial planning process, Eni manages the liquidity risk by targeting such a capital structure as to allow the Company to maintain a level of liquidity adequate to the Group's needs, optimizing the opportunity cost of maintaining liquidity reserves also achieving an efficient balance in terms of maturity and composition of finance debt (in terms of: (i) maximum ratio between net financial debt and net equity (leverage); (ii) minimum incidence of medium and long-term debts over the total amount of financial debts; (iii) minimum amount of fixed-rate debts over the total amount of medium and long-term debts; and (iv) minimum level of liquidity reserve). For this purpose, Eni holds a significant amount of liquidity reserve (financial assets plus committed credit lines), which aims to: (a) deal with identified risk factors that could significantly affect the cash flow expected in the Financial Plan (i.e. changes in the scenario and/or production volumes, delays in disposals, limitations in profitable acquisitions); (b) ensure a full coverage of short-term debt and the coverage of medium and long-term debts with a maturity of 24 months, even in case of restrictions to the credit access; (c) ensuring the availability of an adequate level of financial flexibility to support the Group's development plans; and (d) maintaining/improving the current credit rating. The financial asset reserve is employed in short-term marketable financial instruments, favouring investments with very low risk profile.

At present, the Group believes to have access to sufficient funding to meet the current foreseeable borrowing requirements as a consequence of the availability of financial assets and lines of credit and the access to a wide range of funding at competitive costs through the credit system and capital markets.

Eni has in place a program for the issuance of Euro Medium Term Notes up to €20 billion, of which about €14.9 billion were drawn as of June 30, 2016.

The Group has credit ratings of BBB+ look stable and A-2, respectively for long and short-term debt, outlook stable, assigned by Standard & Poor's and Baa1 outlook stable and P-2, respectively for long and short-term debt, assigned by Moody's. Eni's credit rating is linked in addition to the Company's industrial fundamentals and trends in the trading environment to the sovereign credit rating of Italy. Based on the methodologies used by Standard & Poor's and Moody's, a downgrade of Italy's credit rating may trigger a potential knock-on effect on the credit rating of Italian issuers such as Eni.

In the course of the first half 2016, Eni issued bonds amounting to €1.5 billion related to the Euro Medium Term Notes Program and equity-linked bonds amounting to €0.4 billion.

As of June 30, 2016, Eni maintained short-term unused borrowing facilities of €12,555 million, of which €41 million committed. Long-term committed borrowing facilities amounted to €6,572 million, of which €1,850 million were due within 12 months. These facilities bore interest rates and fees for unused facilities that reflected prevailing market conditions.

Expected payments by period under contractual obligations

The Group has in place a number of contractual obligations arising in the normal course of the business. To meet these commitments, the Group will have to make payments to third parties. The Company's main obligations pertain to take-or-pay clauses contained in the Company's gas supply contracts or shipping arrangements, whereby the Company obligations consist of off-taking minimum quantities of product or service or, in case of failure, paying the corresponding cash amount that entitles the Company the right to collect the product or the service in future years. Future obligations in connection with these contracts were calculated by applying the forecasted prices of energy or services included in the four-year business plan approved by the Company's Board of Directors.

Legal Proceedings

Eni is a party to a number of civil actions and administrative arbitral and other judicial proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. Based on information available to date, and taking into account the existing risk provisions, Eni believes that the foregoing will likely not have a material adverse effect on Eni's Consolidated Financial Statements.

A description of the most significant proceedings currently pending is provided in the following paragraph. Unless otherwise indicated below, no provisions have been made for these legal proceedings as Eni believes that negative outcomes are not probable or because the amount of the provision cannot be estimated reliably.

1. Environment, health and safety

1.1 Criminal proceedings in the matters of environment, health and safety

(i) Syndial SpA and Versalis SpA - Porto Torres dock - Prosecuting body: Public Prosecutor of Sassari. In July 2012, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing, following a request of the Public Prosecutor of Sassari, requested the performance of a probationary evidence relating to the functioning of the hydraulic barrier of Porto Torres site (ran by Syndial SpA) and its capacity to avoid the dispersion of contamination released by the site in the near portion of sea. Syndial SpA and Versalis SpA have been notified that its chief executive officers and other managers are being investigated. The Public Prosecutor of the Municipality of Sassari requested that the above-mentioned individuals would stand trial. The Judge for Preliminary Investigation authorized that the two Eni's subsidiaries would be arraigned to compensate any possible damage in connection with the proceeding. The trial is undergoing with an abbreviated procedure. The plaintiffs Ministry of Environment and the Sardinia Region claimed environmental damage in an amount of €1 billion and €500 million, respectively. On the hearing dated July 22, 2016 the Judge pronounced an acquittal sentence for Syndial and Versalis. Certain of Eni's employees were found guilty: the environmental manager of the area, the environmental manager of Porto Torres site and the manager in charge of the Syndial's groundwater treatment plant, who were all condemned to one year, with a suspended sentence, for environmental disaster which took place in the area in the period limited to August 2010 – January 2011. The provisional settlement awards compensation payment of €200,000 to the Ministry, €100,000 to the Sardinia Region and €100,000 to the Municipality of Sassari. The Judge did not mention any possible malfunctioning of the hydraulic barrier of Porto Torres site or ineffective implementation of any emergency safety measure, as claimed by the Public Prosecutor. Syndial will file an appeal against this decision.

(ii) Proceeding Val d'Agri. The Italian Public Prosecutor's Office of Potenza started a criminal investigation in order to ascertain existence of an illegal handling of wastes material produced at the Viggiano oil center, part of the Eni-operated Val d'Agri oil complex, and disposed at treatment plants in the national territory. After a two-year investigation, the Prosecutors decided for the domiciliary detention of 5 Eni employees and to put under seizure certain plants functional to the production activity of the Val d'Agri complex which, as a consequences, has been shut down (60 kboe/d net to Eni,). From the commencement of the investigation, Eni has carried out several and in-depth technical and environmental surveys, with support of independent experts of international reach, who recognized full compliance of the plant and the industrial process with requirements of applicable laws, as well as with best available technologies and international best practices. The Company sought to obtain a repeal of the seizure before the jurisdictional authorities without an outcome. The Company studied certain corrective measures to upgrade plants which, although being not a structural solution, were intended to address the claims made by the public prosecutor about an alleged operation of blending which would have occurred during normal plant functioning. Those measures comprise building a gathering system of waters associated with the extraction of hydrocarbons at the gas lines. Those corrective measures were favourably reviewed by the public prosecutor, who granted Eni a temporary repeal of the seizure in order to allow the Company perform the works. The in-charge department of the Italian Ministry of Economic Development duly authorized the works and established a strict schedule to execute the plant upgrading as requested by the public prosecutor. Eni executed the plant upgrading according to this strict schedule. Once the public prosecutor verifies the correct execution of the plant upgrading, it is anticipated that it will definitively repeal the plant seizure. It is worth mentioning that, after the seizure, the Basilicata Region itself has decided to implement two specific measures: (i) the start of the AIA review; and (ii) the interruption of the well Costa Molina 2. Both measures, triggered by the statement of the Public Prosecutor, have been contested before an administrative tribunal of the Basilicata Region (no suspension requested). Contextually, referring to the interruption of the Costa Molina 2 well, also considering the motivations of the temporary measure to lift the seizure, the Company filed a request to revoke the measure, while the documents for AIA review are currently being prepared. The deadline is expected on August 14, 2016.

1.2 Civil and administrative proceedings in the matters of environment, health and safety

(i) Syndial SpA - Summon for alleged environmental damage caused by DDT pollution in the Lake Maggiore - Prosecuting body: Ministry of the Environment. In May 2003, the Ministry of the Environment summoned Syndial to obtain a sentence condemning the Eni subsidiary to compensate an alleged environmental damage caused by the activity of the Pieve Vergonte plant in the years 1990 through 1996. With a temporarily executive sentence dated July 3, 2008, the District Court of Turin sentenced the subsidiary Syndial SpA to compensate environmental damages amounting to euro 1,833.5 million, plus legal costs that accrued from the filing of the decision. Syndial and Eni technical legal consultants have considered the decision and the amount of the compensation to be without factual and legal basis and have concluded that a negative outcome of this proceeding is unlikely. Particularly, Eni and its subsidiary deem the amount of the environmental damage to be absolutely groundless as the sentence lacks sufficient elements to support such a material amount of the liability charged to Eni and its subsidiary with respect to the volume of pollutants ascertained by the Italian Environmental Minister. Based on these technical legal advices which is also supported by external accounting consultants, no provisions have been made with respect to the proceeding. In July 2009, Syndial filed an appeal against the above-mentioned sentence, and consequently the proceeding continued before a Second Degree Court of Turin. In the hearing of June 15, 2012, before the Second Degree Court of Turin, the Minister of the Environment, formalized trough the Board of State Lawyers its decision to not enforce the sentence until a final verdict on the matter is reached. The Second Degree Court requested Syndial to stand as defendant and then requested a technical appraisal of the matter. This technical appraisal was favorable to Syndial; however such outcome was questioned by the Board of State Lawyers. On July 8, 2015, the Court of Appeal of Turin requested the consultants appointed by the Court to perform again a technical appraisal of the matter with aim to identify adequate measures for environmental restoration of the external areas. The deadline for the completion of the technical appraisal is 180 days dating from the hearing of assignment (September 30, 2015). The next hearing is due to take place in July 8, 2016. On June 13, 2016, the consultants filed an integration to the technical appraisal. In brief, the consultants validated the technical review of the matter and other technical assessments which were carried out by the Company together with local and national technical entities. The consultants concluded that: (i) no further measure for environmental restoration is required; (ii) there was no significant and measurable impact on the environment and the usability of the ecosystem, therefore no restoration or damage compensation should be claimed. The only impact which could be recorded concerns fishing, with an estimated damage of €7 million which can be already restored by means of the measures proposed by Syndial; (iii) the necessity and convenience of dredging should be definitely excluded, both from the legal and scientific point of view, while confirming technical and scientific correctness of the Syndial's approach based on the monitoring of the process of natural recovery, which is estimated to require 20 years. The sentence is expected by the end of the year.

Notes to the Financial Statements

2. Other legal and arbitration proceedings

Eni is a party to a number of arbitration proceedings arising from price revisions of long-term gas supply contracts.

(i) Eni's arbitration with Gas Terra. In 2013, Eni initiated an arbitration against GasTerra, as part of a long-term supply contract signed in 1986, to obtain a revision of the price charged by GasTerra to Eni for the gas supplied in the 2012-2015 period. On that occasion, Eni and GasTerra agreed to apply a provisional price, which was lower than the previous price, until the definition of a new contractual price on the basis of an arrangement between parties or an arbitration award. An arbitration award of June 23, 2016 dismissed Eni's claim for price revision, without however determining a new price applicable in the relevant period. GasTerra considers that, by dismissing Eni's claim, the award restored the original contract price, on the basis of which GasTerra now claims an additional amount to be paid by Eni which corresponds to the difference between the provisional price and the contractual price. Eni, relying also on the opinion of its external consultants, does not agree with GasTerra's interpretation and regards GasTerra claim groundless. However GasTerra, on the basis of its own interpretation, commenced arbitration proceedings and obtained from a Dutch court the provisional seizure of Eni's investment in its subsidiary Eni International BV, for the amount of the alleged trade receivable due by Eni (equal to €1.01 billion). This measure, which was granted after a summary review only and without Eni being heard, does not prejudice the outcome on the merits of the proceedings. However, this measure is restricting Eni's ability to access the assets of the subsidiary. Eni considers that GasTerra's request for payment is groundless and will take all necessary steps to protect its rights. With respect to the interim seizure measure obtained by GasTerra, Eni will proceed to replace the seizure with a bank guarantee or its equivalent as soon as practicable, pending the outcome of the arbitration proceedings. Eni will further seek compensation for any damages it incurs, due to GasTerra's legal actions.

3. Antitrust, EU Proceedings, Actions of the Authority for Electricity Gas and Water and of other Regulatory Authorities

(i) Eni SpA - Investigation for alleged violations of the Consumer Code in the matter of billing of gas and power consumptions. With a decision notified on July 8, 2015, the Italian Antitrust Authority (AGCM) commenced an investigation to ascertain alleged unfair commercial practices under the Consumer Code in the billing of gas and power consumptions to retail customers. This preliminary investigation originated from certain reports of consumers and consumer organizations received by the AGCM in the period March 2014-June 2015. These complaints regard cases in which Eni allegedly started procedures of formal notice, credit recovery and suspension of supply in relation to: (i) claims for payment of invoices for amounts false, anomalous and/or un-correctly estimated; (ii) credits towards clients for significant amounts accrued in consequence of continued delay in issuing invoices or adjustment payments made after many years with respect to the effective consumption; and (iii) requests for payment of invoices already settled by consumers. The preliminary investigation and the request for information to the Company are aimed at obtaining relevant elements for assessing the existence of these alleged unfair trade practices. In order to close the investigation and to avoid sanctions, Eni filed with the Antitrust Authority a proposal of commitments, which were rejected, though. Having concluded the investigation, on June 13, 2016 the Italian Antitrust Authority notified to Eni its final decision to fine a company a total of €3.6 million. At present, Eni is considering whether to contest this decision before the Regional Administrative Tribunal.

4. Court inquiries on the matter of criminal/administrative corporate responsibility

(i) EniPower SpA. In June 2004, the Milan Public Prosecutor commenced inquiries into contracts awarded by Eni's subsidiary EniPower and on supplies from other companies to EniPower. It emerged that illicit payments were made by EniPower suppliers to a manager of EniPower who was immediately dismissed. The Court served EniPower (the commissioning entity) and Snamprogetti (now Saipem SpA) (contractor of engineering and procurement services) with notices of investigation in accordance with Legislative Decree No. 231/2001 that establishes that companies are liable for the crimes committed by their employees who acted on behalf of the employer. In August 2007, Eni was notified that the Public Prosecutor requested the dismissal of EniPower SpA and Snamprogetti SpA, while the proceeding continues against former employees of these companies and employees and managers of the suppliers under the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001. Eni SpA, EniPower and Snamprogetti presented themselves as plaintiffs in the preliminary hearing. In the preliminary hearing related to the main proceeding on April 27, 2009, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing requested all the parties that have not requested the plea-bargain to stand in trial, excluding certain defendants as a result of the statute of limitations. During the hearing on March 2, 2010, the Court confirmed the admission as plaintiffs of Eni SpA, EniPower SpA and Saipem SpA against the inquired parts under the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001. Further employees of the companies involved were identified as defendants to account for their civil responsibility. In September 2011, the Court of Milan found that nine persons were guilty for the above-mentioned crimes. In addition, they were sentenced jointly and severally to the payment of all damages to be assessed through a dedicated proceeding and to the reimbursement of the proceeding expenses incurred by the plaintiffs. The Court also resolved to dismiss all the criminal indictments for 7 employees, representing some companies involved as a result of the statute of limitations while the trial ended with an acquittal of 15 individuals. In relation to the companies involved in the proceeding, the Court found that 7 companies are liable based on the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001, imposing a fine and the disgorgement of profit. Eni SpA and its subsidiaries, EniPower and Saipem, which took over Snamprogetti, acted as plaintiffs in the proceeding also against the mentioned companies. The Court rejected the position as plaintiffs of the Eni Group companies, reversing a prior decision made by the Court. This decision may have been made on the basis of a pronouncement made by a Supreme Court which stated the illegitimacy of the constitution as plaintiffs made against any legal entity which is indicted under the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001. The Court filed the ground of the judgment on December 19, 2011. The condemned parties filed an appeal against the above mentioned decision. The Appeal Court issued a ruling which substantially confirmed the first-degree judgment except for the fact that it ascertained the statute of limitation with regard to certain defendants. The Third Degree Court annulled the sentence of the Appeal Court of Milan and referred the proceeding to another section.

(ii) Algeria. Legal proceedings are pending in Italy and outside Italy in connection with an allegation of corruption relating to the award of certain contracts to Saipem in Algeria. On February 4, 2011, Eni received from the Public Prosecutor of Milan an information request pursuant to Article 248 of the Italian Code of Criminal Procedure. The request related to allegations of international corruption and pertained to certain activities performed by Saipem Group companies in Algeria (in particular the contract between Saipem and Sonatrach relating to the construction of the GK3 gas pipeline and the contract between Galsi, Saipem and Technip relating to the engineering of the ground section of a gas pipeline). For that reason, the notification was forwarded by Eni to Saipem. The crime of international corruption is among the offenses contemplated by Legislative Decree of June 8, 2001, No. 231, relating to corporate responsibility for crimes committed by employees which provides fines and interdictions to the company and the disgorgement of profit. Saipem promptly began to collect documentation in response to the requests of the Public Prosecutor. The documents were produced on February 16, 2011. Eni also filed documentation relating to the MLE project (in which the Eni's Exploration & Production Division participates) even if not required, with respect to which investigations in Algeria are ongoing. On November 22, 2012, the Public Prosecutor of Milan served Saipem a notice stating that it had commenced an investigation for alleged liability of the company for international corruption in accordance to Article 25, second and third paragraph of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001. Furthermore, the Prosecutor requested the production of certain documents relating to certain activities in

Notes to the Financial Statements

Algeria. The proceeding was unified with the Iraq-Kazakhstan proceeding, concerning a different line of investigation, as it related to the activities carried out by Eni in Iraq and Kazakhstan. Subsequently Saipem was served a notice of seizure, then a request for documentation and finally a search warrant was issued, in order to acquire further documentation, in particular relating to certain intermediary contracts and subcontracts entered into by Saipem in connection with its Algerian business. Several former Saipem employees were also involved in the proceeding, including the former CEO of Saipem, who resigned from the office in December of 2012, and the former Chief Operating Officer of the Business Unit Engineering & Construction of Saipem, who was fired at the beginning of 2013. On February 7, 2013, on mandate from the Public Prosecutor of Milan, the Italian Finance Police visited Eni's headquarters in Rome and San Donato Milanese and executed searches and seized documents relating to Saipem's activity in Algeria. On the same occasion, Eni was served a notice that an investigation had commenced in accordance with Article 25, third and fourth paragraph of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001 with respect to Eni, Eni's former CEO, Eni's former CFO and another senior manager. Eni's former CFO had previously served as Saipem's CFO including during the period in which alleged corruption took place and before being appointed as CFO of Eni on August 1, 2008. Eni conducted an internal investigation with the assistance of external consultants, in addition to the review activities performed by its audit and internal control departments and a dedicated team to the Algerian matters. During 2013, the external consultants reached the following results: (i) the review of the documents seized by the Milan prosecutors and the examination of internal records held by Eni's global procurement department have not found any evidence that Eni entered into intermediary or any other contractual arrangements with the third parties involved in the prosecutors' investigation; the brokerage contracts that were identified, were signed by Saipem or its subsidiaries or predecessor companies; and (ii) the internal review made on a voluntary basis of the MLE project, the only project that Eni understands to be under the prosecutors' investigation where the client is an Eni Group company has not found evidence that any Eni employee engaged in wrongdoing in connection with the award to Saipem of two main contracts to execute the project (EPC and Drilling). Furthermore, in 2014, with the assistance of external consultants, Eni completed a review of the extent of its operating control over Saipem with regard to both legal and accounting and administrative issues. The findings of the review performed have confirmed the autonomy of Saipem from the parent company. The findings of Eni's internal review have been provided to the Judicial Authority in order to reaffirm Eni's willingness to fully cooperate. On October 24, 2014, Eni SpA received a request of probationary evidence by the Prosecutor of Milan relating to for the examination of two defendants: the former Chief Operating Officer of the Business Unit Engineering & Construction of Saipem and the former President and General Manager of Saipem Contracting Algérie SpA. On January 14, 2015, the Public Prosecutor of Milan notified the conclusion of preliminary investigations towards Eni, Saipem and eight persons (including, the former CEO and CFO of Eni and the Chief Upstream Officer of Eni who was responsible for Eni Exploration & Production activities in North Africa at the time of the events under investigation). The Public Prosecutor of Milan has issued a notice for alleged international corruption against all defendants (including Eni and Saipem on the base of the provisions of Legislative Decree No. 231/2001) in connection with the entry into intermediary contracts by Saipem in Algeria. Furthermore, some of the defendants (including the former CEO and CFO of Eni and the Chief Upstream Officer of Eni) were accused of tax offense for fraudulent misrepresentation in relation to the accounting treatment of these contracts for the fiscal years 2009 and 2010. Having acquired the actions of the court filed in relation to the request of probationary evidence, the minutes of the hearing and the documents filed for the conclusion of the preliminary investigation, Eni requested its consultants to perform additional analysis and investigation. As a result, Eni's consultants reaffirmed their conclusions previously reported to the Company. In February 2015, the Public Prosecutor indicted all the investigated persons for abovementioned crimes. On October 2, 2015, the Judge for the Preliminary Hearing of the Court of Milan dismissed the case and granted an acquittal in favor of Eni, former Chief Executive Officer and Chief Upstream Officer for all the alleged crimes. On February 24, 2016, the Court of Third Instance, upholding an appeal presented by the Public Prosecutor of Milan, reversed the dismissal, annulled the verdict, and remanded the proceedings to another Judge for the Preliminary Hearing in the Court of Milan. This new preliminary hearing was held on July 27, 2016. The Judge decided that all the investigated would stand trial including Eni. The first hearing before the Tribunal of Milan is scheduled for December 5, 2016. At the end of 2012, Eni contacted the U.S. Authorities – the DoJ and the U.S. SEC – in order to voluntary inform them about this matter and kept them informed about the developments in the Italian prosecutors' investigations. Following Eni's notification in 2012, both the U.S. SEC and the DoJ have started their own investigations regarding this matter. Eni has furnished various information and documents, including the findings of its internal reviews, in response to formal and informal requests.

(iii) Block OPL 245, Nigeria. The criminal proceeding regarding alleged international corruption in the acquisition of Block OPL 245 in Nigeria is still pending. On July 2, 2014, the Italian Public Prosecutor of Milan served Eni with a notice of investigation relating to potential liability on the part of Eni arising from alleged international corruption, pursuant to Italian Legislative Decree No. 231/2001 whereby companies are liable for the crimes committed by their employees when performing their tasks. According to the notice, the Prosecutor has commenced investigations involving a third party external to the Group and other unidentified persons. As part of the proceeding, Eni was also subpoenaed for documents and other evidence. According to the subpoena, the proceeding was commenced following a claim filed by ReCommon NGO relating to alleged corruptive practices which according to the Prosecutor would have allegedly involved the Resolution Agreement made on April 29, 2011 relating to the Oil Prospecting license of the offshore oilfield that was discovered in Block 245 in Nigeria. Eni is fully cooperating with the Prosecutor and has promptly filed the requested documentation. Furthermore, Eni has reported the matter to the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. SEC. Finally, in July 2014, the Eni's Board of Statutory Auditors jointly with the Eni Watch Structure resolved to engage outside consultants, experts in anticorruption, to conduct a forensic, independent review of the matter, upon informing the Judicial Authorities. On September 10, 2014, the Public Prosecutor of Milan notified Eni of a restraining order issued by a British judge who ruled the seizure of a bank account domiciled at a British bank following a request from the Italian Public Prosecutor. The order was also communicated to certain individuals, including Eni's CEO and the Chief Development, Operations and Technological Officer, as well as Eni's former CEO. From the available documents, it was inferred that such Eni's officers and former officers are under investigation by the Italian Public Prosecutor. During a hearing before a Court of London on September 15, 2014, Eni and its current executive officers gave evidence of their non-involvement in the matter regarding the seized bank account. Following the hearing, the Court reaffirmed the seizure. An investigation conducted by an independent U.S. law firm on behalf of Eni's Board of Statutory Auditors and Watch Structure found no evidence of misconduct in relation to Eni and Shell's 2011 transaction with the Nigerian government for the acquisition of the OPL 245 license. The outcome of the investigation has been made available to the judicial authority reaffirming Eni's full cooperation and transparency. In December 2015, the Public Prosecutor of Milan requested further postponement of the conclusion of the preliminary investigation. On April 5, 2016, the subsidiary Nigerian Agip Exploration Ltd received a summon in order to acquire information in an investigation relating to the concession OPL 245 conducted by the Nigerian EFCC (Economic and Financial Crime Commission). The lawyer of the subsidiary Nigerian Agip Exploration Ltd provided the requested information.

(iv) Eni SpA Refining & Marketing Division - Criminal proceedings on fuel excise tax (Criminal proceeding No. 6159/10 RGNR the Italian Public Prosecutor in Frosinone and criminal proceeding No. 7320/14 RGNR the Italian Public Prosecutor in Rome). Two criminal proceedings are currently pending, relating to alleged evasion of excise taxes in the context of the retail sales at the fuel market. In particular, the claim states that the quantity of oil products marketed by Eni was larger than the quantity subjected to the excise tax. The first proceeding, opened by the Public Prosecutor's Office of Frosinone against a third company (Turrizziani Petroli) purchaser of Eni's fuel, is still pending in the phase of the preliminary investigation. This investigation was subsequently extended to Eni. The Company has cooperated fully with the proceeding and provided all data and information concerning the performance of the excise tax obligations for the quantities of fuel coming from the storage sites of Gaeta, Naples and Livorno. Eni ensured the best possible collaboration, handing in all the required documentation with promptness. Such proceeding referred to quantities of oil products sold by Eni, allegedly larger than the quantity subjected to the excise tax. After the ending of the investigation, the Fiscal Police from Frosinone, along with the local Customs Agency, in November 2013 issued a claim related to the evasion of the payment of excise taxes in the 2007-2012 periods for euro 1.55 million. In May 2014, the Customs Agency of Rome issued a payment notice relating to the above-mentioned claim which was filed by the Fiscal Police

Notes to the Financial Statements

and Customs Agency of Frosinone. The Company immediately appealed to the Tributary Commission. The second proceeding, opened by the Public Prosecutor's Office of Rome, regarded alleged evasion of excise tax payment on the surplus of the unloading products, as quantity of such products was larger than the quantity reported in the supporting fiscal documents. This proceeding represents a development of the first proceeding above mentioned, and substantially concerns similar facts, with however some differences with regard to both the nature of the alleged crimes and the responsibility subjected to verification. In fact, the Public Prosecutor's Office of Rome has alleged the existence of a criminal conspiracy aimed at the habitual subtraction of oil products at all of the 22 storage sites which are operated by Eni over the national territory. Eni is cooperating with prosecutor in order to defend the correctness of its operation. Moreover, at the Company's request, the national association of refiners asked the Italian Customs Agency to provide its advice on the correctness of the operating models adopted by Eni. On September 30, 2014, a search was conducted at the office of the former Chief Operating Officer of Eni's Refining & Marketing Division as ordered by the Public Prosecutor of Rome. The motivations of the search are the same as the above mentioned proceeding as the ongoing investigations also relates to a period of time when he was in charge of that Eni's Division. On March 5, 2015, the Prosecutor of Rome ordered a search at all the storage sites of Eni's network in Italy as part of the same proceeding. The search was intended to verify the existence of fraudulent practices aimed at tampering with measuring systems functional to the tax compliance of excise duties in relation to fuel handling at the storage sites. The three criminal proceedings were united together at Public Prosecutor's Office of Rome, which is still conducting preliminary investigations. Ultimately, the Customs Agency, in reply to the national association of refiners, published a dedicated Circular which provides the rules the operators in the sector should follow to determine the quantity of oil products subjected to the excise tax, so as to give clarification to regional customs agencies, the Revenue Agency and the Finance Police. According to this Circular, Eni and other oil companies followed the correct procedures in order to determine the quantity subjected to the excise tax. In September 2015, the Public Prosecutor of Rome requested a one-off technical appraisal aimed to verify the compliance of the software installed at certain metric heads previously seized with those lodged by the manufacturer to the Ministry of Economic Development. The technical appraisal concluded that the installed software was in compliance with the Ministry specifications. On this occasion, it became clear that the proceeding has been extended to a large number of employees and former employees of the company. The proceeding is pending, as the preliminary investigations have been continuing.

5. Tax Proceedings

(i) Dispute for the omitted payment of a municipal tax related to certain oil platforms located in territorial waters in the Adriatic Sea. Several tax proceedings are pending, as certain municipalities claimed Eni SpA omitted payments of a tax on property relating offshore oil platforms located in the territorial waters under the municipality administration. After completing all degrees of judgment before Italian tax courts, on February 24, 2016, the Third Instance Court sentenced that: (i) property taxes on platforms are due by Eni; (ii) the taxable basis is to be defined by considering the platforms carrying amounts, instead of the replacement cost; and (iii) fines are not applicable. The proceeding continued with an indictment before a trial judge so as to determine the due amount. Eni has made a provision for this legal proceeding. Starting in 2016, the provisions of the Italian Budget Law provides that equipment, machinery, tools and other plants are excluded from the basis for calculating taxes on property, if functional to a comprehensive production process. In response to a question of the Italian association of upstream producers, in June 2016 the Italian Department of Finance clarified that oil platforms are part of the categories of plants and equipment which the rule is currently excluding when determining the taxable basis of the above mentioned property tax, effective from 2016. Shortly, a Third Instance Court – Section of Taxation – will rule again so as to clarify if this property tax has to be applied to oil platforms for the years up to 2016. In light of the outcome of Court's decision, Eni will assess whether to made any further tax provisions.

(ii) Excise taxes. On May 31, 2016 the Customs Agency issued to Eni a payment notice for a total sum of €134 million (of which €114 million referring to excise taxes and €20 million referring to interests), in addition to fines amounting to €34 million. This followed a claim filed in 2011, referring to legal proceeding started by the Court of Milan in 2010 pertaining to alleged culpable omission to pay excise taxes (for the period 2003 – 2008) due on 9.8 billion cubic meters of natural gas marketed by Eni in Italy. Considering the documentation filed by Eni in the aftermath, the volumes allegedly subtracted to tax payment were reduced to 650 million cubic meters. Thus, the corresponding amount of allegedly due excise taxes decreased from €1.7 million, initially claimed by the Public Prosecutor, to €144 million. Like the initial claim, the reproposed claim appears to be groundless, taking into account the fact that the gas volumes input into the national grid by Eni and gas volumes off-taken at each delivery points for reselling to final customers have different calorific power. This was confirmed by the opinion of the Head of Energy Department of the Politecnico di Milano and acknowledged by the Customs Agency itself during the consultation process with the Italian association of gas resellers. Therefore, on February 2, 2012 the Customs Agency issued a claim where, configuring erroneous compilation of the consumption declaration only, stated that it would open a procedure to recover the alleged missed payment of excise taxes depending on the outcome of the legal proceeding. With a sentence dated June 28, 2012 the Public Prosecutor of Milan the Tribunal resolved to dismiss the proceeding against all defendants because the fact did not constitute an offence. Also the appeal filed by the Public Prosecutor was rejected by a final-degree Court with sentence dated July 3, 2013 and filed on January 7, 2014. The Customs Agency reiterated the claim because - even if the incidence of the calorific value has been acknowledged from a technical and scientific point of view and shared by the Agency itself, - at the same time the matter has not been explicitly regulated by an administrative act. In order to safeguard the Company's assets, Eni's management commenced the following initiatives: (i) an administrative claim has been filed in order to suspend the tax collection; in case of failure a jurisdictional claim will follow suit; (ii) a possible appeal against the Agency's claim before a Tax Judge. As to date, taking into account the outcome of the legal proceeding, the claim is considered to be groundless. Therefore, no provision has been made as of June 30, 2016.

6. Settled proceedings

(i) Action commenced by the Municipality of Carrara for the remediation and reestablishment of previous environmental conditions at the Avenza site and payment of environmental damage. The Municipality of Carrara commenced an action before the Court of Genoa requesting Syndial SpA to remediate and restore previous environmental conditions at the Avenza site and the payment of environmental damage (amounting to €139 million), further damages of various types (e.g. damage to the natural beauty of this site) amounting to €80 million, as well as damages relating to loss of profit and property amounting to approximately €16 million. This request is related to an accident that occurred in 1984, as a consequence of which EniChem Agricoltura SpA (later merged into Syndial SpA), at the time owner of the site, carried out safety and remediation works. The Ministry for the Environment joined the action and requested environmental damage payment – from a minimum of €53.5 million to a maximum of €93.3 million – to be broken down among the various companies that ran the plant in the past. The Court of Genoa rejected all claims made by the Municipality of Carrara and the Ministry for the Environment. The Second Instance Court also confirmed the decision issued in the first judgment and rejected all the claims made by the plaintiffs. On December 4, 2012 the Ministry for the Environment filed an appeal before a third instance court on the belief that Syndial is liable for the environmental damage as the Eni subsidiary took over the site from the previous owners assuming all existing liabilities; it was responsible for managing the plant and inadequately remediating the site after the occurrence of an incident in 1984 and for omitted clean-up. Syndial established itself as defendant. On the hearing of November 19, 2015, the Ministry reaffirmed Syndial's strict liability as the Eni's subsidiary took over the site due to a law provision. In 2016, a Third Degree Court sentenced that only the first motivation of the appeal filed by the Ministry is valid, which related to the statute of limitations for the crime of disaster applicable exclusively to the previous owners of the site. Therefore, the Court has definitely confirmed that Syndial is not liable, neither for activities directly conducted (including alleged delay/omission of the clean-up activities claimed by the Notes to the Financial Statements

Ministry) nor for strict liability (as it took over the site from the previous owners). With reference to Syndial's position, the motivations of the appeal filed by the Ministry were rejected as considered inadmissible or groundless.

Net expense from derivatives of €5 million (net expense of €106 million in the first half of 2015) was recognized in connection with fair value valuation of certain derivatives which lacked the formal criteria to be treated in accordance with hedge accounting under IFRS as they were entered into for amounts equal to the net exposure to exchange rate risk and interest rate risk, and as such, they cannot be referred to specific trade or financing transactions. Exchange rate derivatives were entered into in order to manage exposures to foreign currency exchange rates arising from the pricing formulas of commodities in the Gas & Power segment. The lack of formal requirements to qualify these derivatives as hedges under IFRS also entailed the recognition in profit or loss of currency translation differences on assets and liabilities denominated in currencies other than functional currency, as this effect cannot be offset by changes in the fair value of the related instruments.

Net income on options of €24 million (net expense for €16 million in the first half 2015) related to: (i) the reversal through profit and loss of the fair value of the embedded options due to the settlement of the bond convertible into ordinary shares of Snam SpA for €26 million (expense of €16 million in the first half 2015); (ii) the fair value of the option embedded in non-dilutive equity-linked convertible bond for €2 million. More information is provided in note 21 – Long-term debt and current portion of long-term debt.

34 Income taxes

(€ million) First half

Current taxes:
- Italian subsidiaries 82 107
- Outside Italy 2,443 1,207

Net deferred taxes:
- Italian subsidiaries (12) 6
- Outside Italy (748) (381)
(760) (375)
1,765 939

The reconciliation between the statutory tax charge, calculated by applying the Italian statutory tax rate of 27.5% on the corporate profit before taxes, and the effective income taxes of €939 million determines a higher tax charge of €1,021 million. This difference is the consequence of the impact of the net profit reported by the non-Italian companies of the Exploration & Production segment which are subjected to a higher tax rate and of the write-off at deferred tax assets due to projections of lower future taxable profit in Italy.

Average number of shares used for the calculation of the basic and diluted 2015 2016
earnings per share 3,601,140,133 3,601,140,133
Eni's net profit (loss) (€ million) 735 (1,242)

Eni's net profit (loss) - Discontinued operations (€ million) (550) (413)
Basic and diluted earning (loss) per share (euro per share) (0.15) (0.11)

Basic earnings per ordinary share are calculated by dividing net profit for the period attributable to Eni's shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares issued and outstanding during the period, excluding treasury shares.

The average number of ordinary shares outstanding for the first half of 2015 and 2016, was 3,601,140,133.

As of June 30, 2015 and 2016, no pending issues of new shares that could dilute earnings were reported.

36 Information by industry segment

Eni's segmental reporting is established based on the Group's operating segments that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (the CEO) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance.

The main key financial information of the operating segments to be reported to the CEO are: revenues, operating income, assets and liabilities directly attributable.

Due to the amendment in accounting the Chemical business as discontinued operation and the application of the Successful Efforts Method (SEM), the information relating to compared periods was restated (see note 1 - Basis of presentation). The information relating to the Chemical business was re-aggregated with Refining & Marketing because a single manager is accountable of the performance at both operating segments and the two segments exhibit similar economic characteristics.

As of June 30, 2016, Eni's reportable segments have been regrouped as follows:

Exploration & Production: is engaged in exploring for and recovering crude oil and natural gas, including participation to projects for the liquefaction of natural gas;

Gas & Power: is engaged in supply and marketing of natural gas at wholesale and retail markets, supply and marketing of LNG and supply, production and marketing of power at retail and wholesale markets. The Gas & Power segment is engaged in supply and marketing of crude oil and oil products targeting the operational requirements of Eni's refining business and in commodity trading (including crude oil, natural gas, oil products, power, emission allowances, etc.) targeting to both hedge and stabilize the Group industrial and commercial margins according to an integrated view and to optimize margins.

Refining & Marketing and Chemical: is engaged in manufacturing, supply, distribution and marketing activities for oil products and chemicals.

Corporate and other activities: represents the key support functions, comprising holdings and treasury, headquarters, central functions like IT, HR, real estate, self-insurance activities, as well as the Group environmental clean-up and remediation activities performed by the subsidiary Syndial.

The comparative reporting periods have been restated consistently.

Certification pursuant to rule 154-bis, paragraph 5 of the Legislative Decree No. 58/1998 (Testo Unico della Finanza)

    1. The undersigned Claudio Descalzi and Massimo Mondazzi, in their respective role as Chief Executive Officer and officer responsible for the preparation of financial reports of Eni, also pursuant to rule 154- bis, paragraphs 3 and 4 of Legislative Decree No. 58 of February 24, 1998, hereby certify that internal controls over financial reporting in place for the preparation of the condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of June 30, 2016 and during the period covered by the report, were:

Subsidiaries, joint arrangements and affiliates resident in states with a privileged tax regime

The Law of 28 December 2015, no. 208 (Stability Law 2016), effective from 1 January 2016, amended the article no. 167, paragraph 4, of the Presidential Decree of 22 December 1986 no. 917, identifying all the tax regimes, even special, of states or territories to be considered as privileged with reference, exclusively, to a nominal level of taxation lower than 50 percent of the one applicable in Italy. Furthermore, the regimes of states or territories that are part of the European Union, or of states that are part of the European Economic Area that have concluded agreements with Italy ensuring an effective exchange of information are not to be considered as privileged. Up to 31 December 2015, according to the regulation in force, states and territories with a privileged tax regime were identified by the decree of the Minister of Economy and Finance dated 21 November 2001 on the basis of the so-called "Black List". At June 30, 2016, Eni controls 9 companies based in states with a privileged tax regime as identified by article no. 167, paragraph 4 of the Italian Income Tax Code. Of these 9 companies, 5 are subject to taxation in Italy because they are included in the tax return of Eni. The remaining 4 companies are not subject to Italian taxation, but to the specific local tax regimes, as a consequence of the exemption obtained by the Italian Revenue Agency by taking into account of the taxation level applied. Of these 9 companies, 8 come from the acquisitions of Lasmo Plc, the activities carried out in Congo by Maurel & Prom, Burren Energy Plc and Hess Indonesia. These subsidiaries, resident or located in states identified by the Decree, did not issued any financial instrument and all the financial statements for 2015 were audited by Ernst & Young.
