CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL 4 CONTENTS STATEMENT AND NOTES SUPPLEMENTARY
Equinor delivered a total equity production of 2,130 mboe per day for the first quarter, up from 2,106 mboe per day in the same quarter of 2022. The growth was driven by the ramp-up of new fields and wells, and fields back in production, such as Johan Sverdrup phase 2 and Snøhvit in Norway and Peregrino in Brazil. Short-term operational issues at Johan Sverdrup early in the quarter impacted the increase.
Gas production on the Norwegian continental shelf (NCS) remained high and stable, contributing to European energy security.
Production from renewable energy sources was 524 GWh in the quarter, slightly up from the same quarter last year, driven by good availability for the offshore wind farms and production from the floating wind farm Hywind Tampen on the NCS. Including gasto-power production in the UK, total power production for the quarter ended at 1,163 GWh.
Since the start of the year, Equinor has brought the satellite field Bauge on stream in the Norwegian Sea. The partner-operated Vito field was put on stream in the US Gulf of Mexico.
Equinor continued to optimise the oil and gas portfolio, deepening in core areas by entering into an agreement to acquire Suncor Energy UK. An interest in the Statfjord area on the NCS was divested in the quarter.
Equinor completed nine exploration wells offshore with three commercial discoveries in the quarter, and three wells were ongoing at the quarter end. Two of the discoveries were in the Troll area in the North Sea, where Equinor also agreed to acquire a further equity interest in five discoveries. Equinor was awarded 26 new production licences on the NCS.
In the UK, the Dogger Bank offshore wind farm is progressing towards first power this summer. Together with SSE, Equinor is exploring the option of developing a fourth phase, Dogger Bank D.
In the quarter, Equinor closed the acquisition of BeGreen, a leading solar project developer in Northwest Europe, with a project pipeline of over 6 GW in the early to medium stages of maturity.
Equinor continued to develop low-carbon value chains in collaboration with industrial partners and entered into a partnership with the German energy company RWE aiming to develop large-scale value chains for low-carbon hydrogen.
Equinor realised a price for piped gas to Europe of USD 18.8 per mmbtu and realised liquids prices were USD 73.8 per bbl, down by 37% and 24%, respectively, compared to the first quarter 2022.
Equinor delivers strong adjusted earnings at USD 12.0 billion and USD 3.51 billion after tax. This is down from the same quarter last year due to lower prices for liquids and gas but partly offset by production
growth. The Marketing, Midstream & Processing (MMP) segment contributed with earnings, well above the new and increased guided range, mainly driven by crude, products, and liquids trading.
Cash flow provided by operating activities before taxes paid and working capital items amounted to USD 15.3 billion for the first quarter and, cash flow from operations after taxes paid* was USD 9.72 billion. Equinor paid the first of three equal NCS tax instalments of USD 5.42 billion in the quarter and will pay the next two in the second quarter. Organic capital expenditure* was USD 2.31 billion for the quarter, and total capital expenditures were USD 3.18 billion. After taxes, capital distribution to shareholders and investments, net cash flow* ended at USD 4.20 billion for the first quarter.
Strong cash flow, a reduction in working capital and a reduction in collateral deposits resulted in a further strengthening of the financial position. Adjusted net debt to capital employed ratio* was negative 52.3% at the end of the first quarter, from negative 23.9% at the end of the fourth quarter of 2022.
The board of directors has decided an ordinary cash dividend of USD 0.30 per share and an extraordinary cash dividend of USD 0.60 per share for the first quarter of 2023, in line with communication at the Capital Markets Update in February.
Expected total capital distribution for 2023 is USD 17 billion, including a share buy-back programme of USD 6 billion. The board has decided to initiate a second
tranche of the share buy-back programme of USD 1.67 billion. The second tranche will commence on 11 May, end no later than 25 July 2023 and is subject to authorisation from the annual general meeting on 10 May 2023.
The first tranche of the share buy-back programme for 2023 was completed on 20 March 2023 with a total value of USD 1 billion.
All share buy-back amounts include shares to be redeemed by the Norwegian State.

CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL 6 CONTENTS STATEMENT AND NOTES SUPPLEMENTARY
Solid operational performance and production growth in the first quarter of 2023 provides strong results despite a lower price environment compared to 2022.
Snøhvit, which restarted in June 2022, and Johan Sverdrup phase two, which came on stream in December 2022, were the main drivers for increased production on the NCS relative to the same quarter last year. Peregrino in Brazil contributed significantly towards increased production from the international portfolio. Improved levels from Caesar Tonga in the USA following technical improvements, and a reduction in downtime compared to the prior year also added to the improvement in production.
Secure gas production to Europe remains a continued focus in 2023, representing 55% of NCS production for the quarter.
The overall production growth was impacted by short term operational challenges in the quarter for Johan Sverdrup and turnaround activity in Angola and Brazil. 2022 events relating to the exit from Russia, Ekofisk area divestment and Martin Linge ownership share reduction also partly offset the increase in production relative to the first quarter of 2022.
Price realisation in the quarter was lower than the extraordinary highs witnessed in the prior year. This is evident through reduced margins even with a stable production level. Additionally, there was a strong contribution to the overall business results from the Midstream, Marketing and Processing segment for
the first quarter of 2023. Strong physical crude and products margins and solid results from LNG and piped gas trading positively contributed to the first quarter results.
Increased operational capacity and activity in the quarter have contributed to an increased cost base. In addition, rising environmental costs together with inflationary pressures were evidenced by an increase in upstream operating expenditure compared to the prior year. An increase in proved reserves during the year 2022 contributed towards a downward trend in depreciation, partially offsetting the increase in operating expenditure. The strengthening of the USD against the NOK impacts the visibility of these increases in the reported costs.
In the first quarter of 2022, total operating expenses were negatively impacted by impairments of USD 1,080 million related to Equinor's exit from Russia.
The decrease in reported effective tax rate from 72.6% in the first quarter of 2022 to 63.8% in 2023 was mainly caused by a lower relative share of income from the NCS. Net foreign currency exchange gains with a low tax rate also contributed to this decrease in effective tax rate for the quarter.
The effective tax rate on adjusted earnings* of 70.6% for the first quarter of 2023 increased compared to 69.3% in 2022 due to the recognition of the US deferred tax assets in the fourth quarter of 2022.
A strong cashflow provided by operating activities before taxes paid and working capital items of USD 15,305 million was achieved despite lower income before tax which resulted from lower commodity prices in the first quarter of 2023.
Tax outflow of USD 5,589 million reduced by USD 8,599 million from the fourth quarter of 2022, resulting in a cash flow from operations after taxes paid* of USD 9,716 million (2022: USD 6,800 million in the prior quarter). The first of three equal instalments of Norwegian corporate income tax were paid in the first quarter of 2023, whereas two instalments were made in the prior quarter.
Due to reduced prices working capital decreased by USD 5,155 million in the first quarter (USD 23 million in the first quarter of 2022) positively contributing to a strong cashflow.
Net cash flow* of USD 4,201 million increased by USD 2,532 million compared to the prior quarter despite the lower price environment and continued increased dividend cash outflows (USD 2,861 million compared to USD 582 million).
Continued strong results have led to an increase in short term liquid assets in addition to a reduction in net collateral deposits, further strengthening the adjusted net debt to capital employed ratio* from negative 23.9% at the end of December 2022 to negative 52.3% at the end of March 2023.
Subject to approval at the AGM in May, the cash outflow to the Norwegian state in relation to the second, third, fourth tranche of the 2022, and first tranche of the 2023 share buy-back programme is expected to occur in the second quarter of 2023, in addition to two instalments of Norwegian corporate income tax.
The board of directors has decided an ordinary cash dividend of USD 0.30 per share, and an extraordinary cash dividend of USD 0.60 per share for the first quarter of 2023, in line with communication at the Capital Markets Update in February.
Expected total capital distribution for 2023 is USD 17 billion, including a share buy-back programme of USD 6 billion. The board has decided to initiate a second tranche of the share buy-back programme of USD 1.67 billion. The second tranche will commence on 11 May, end no later than 25 July 2023 and is subject to authorisation from the annual general meeting on 10 May 2023.
The first tranche of the share buy-back programme for 2023 was completed on 20 March 2023 with a total value of USD 1 billion.
All share buy-back amounts include shares to be redeemed by the Norwegian State.

Increased production supported by the ramp-up of new fields and continued high gas deliveries to Europe were somewhat offset by temporary operational issues at Johan Sverdrup. This delivered solid results for the years' first quarter, even in a lower-price environment.
Continued high focus on gas production maintained reliable energy deliveries to Europe. Gas volumes represented over 55% of the total production and contributed to a slight increase in volume from the first quarter of 2022. Johan Sverdrup Phase 2 and Snøhvit contributed to a 1% increase in gas volume and a 0.6% increase in liquids compared to the first quarter of 2022.
There was high exploration activity in the quarter with 3 commercial discoveries and activity in 10 wells. Discovered volumes amount to an estimated 40 mmboe, all close to infrastructure on the NCS.
Lower gas prices primarily drove the decrease in net operating income in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year. Realised gas prices were 33% lower in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same quarter in 2022.
In the first quarter of 2023, high environmental costs and higher operations and maintenance costs were the main drivers for the increase in operating and administrative expenses compared to the same period last year. An increase in proved reserves during the year 2022 contributed towards a downward trend in depreciation, partially offsetting the increase in operating expenditure. The development of the USD/NOK exchange rate had a significant positive effect on the total operating expenses.
The divestment of a 19% ownership share in Martin Linge in the fourth quarter of last year and the USD/ NOK exchange rate developments led to a decrease in adjusted depreciation and amortisation* in the first quarter compared to the first quarter of 2022.

The restart of production at the Peregrino field in Brazil in July 2022 and the start-up of phase 2 in October 2022 positively impacted the production in the first quarter of 2023. This was offset mainly by Equinor's exit from Russia, natural decline in several mature fields and the effect of turnarounds, resulting in slightly lower equity production than in the first quarter of 2022. The lower effects from production sharing agreements (PSA) were driven by a decrease in production from several fields with PSAs in combination with lower prices.
Lower liquids and gas prices negatively impacted revenues in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period last year. This was partially offset by increased entitlement production. The fair value of derivatives positively impacted reported total revenues by USD 89 million in the first quarter of 2023 (2022: negative USD 314 million) resulting in a 7% increase overall in total revenues.
Restart of production at the Peregrino field drove higher operations and maintenance expenses and increased royalties in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same quarter last year. This was also a major contributor to the increase in depreciation, together with new investments in several fields and the effect of an impairment reversal in the first quarter of 2022.
In the first quarter of 2023, total reported operating expenses were negatively impacted by a loss of USD 258 million from the sale of the Corrib field in Ireland, compared to a negative impact of USD 1,080 million related to Equinor's exit from Russia in the same period last year.

The Caesar Tonga field in the US Gulf of Mexico back in production with new flow lines, combined with additional wells online in the Appalachian basin, were the main drivers for increased production in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the prior year. The increase was partially offset by a natural decline in the Appalachian basin and several mature fields in the Gulf of Mexico.
Increased entitlement production helped to mitigate some of the downward impacts on revenue caused by the lower price environment.
Reduced downtime in certain Gulf of Mexico assets, the start-up of the Vito platform combined with increased maintenance activity in the Appalachian basin, contributed to higher operations and maintenance expenses. Depreciation and amortisation increased in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same period in 2022 due to increased production and added offshore and onshore capital expenditures. The improved proved reserves partially offset the increase.
In the first quarter of 2022, net operating income was positively impacted by impairment reversals of USD 532 million related to assets in the Gulf of Mexico.

Liquids sales volumes increased compared to the first quarter of 2022. This was mainly due to an increase in sales of international equity volumes and purchases from third parties, partially offset by a decrease in sales volume from NCS.
Compared to the first quarter of 2022, the restarted deliveries from Hammerfest LNG partially offset a reduction in gas sales volumes and third-party volumes. The realised piped gas price Europe decreased compared to the first quarter last year due to a drop in market prices caused by reduced demand amid mild winter temperatures, high LNG imports and healthy storage levels.
The realised US piped gas price decreased compared to the first quarter last year as market prices fell steadily throughout the quarter, driven by a mild winter season, driving down residential and commercial heating demand.

During the first quarter of 2023, Gas and Power adjusted earnings* contributed to solid results driven by LNG and piped gas trading. Strong physical crude and gasoline margins contributed to the solid adjusted earnings* for Crude, Products and Liquids.
Adjusted earnings* increased compared to the first quarter in the prior year primarily due to higher
results from LNG and piped gas trading, and Crude, Products and Liquids trading.
Net operating income in the first quarter of 2023 includes positive effects from changes in the fair value of mark to market derivatives on gas and LNG following the change in amended principles for adjusted earnings* with the effect from the first quarter of 2023.

Power generation comes mainly from offshore wind assets, and remained stable in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the same quarter last year.
Net income from equity-accounted investments decreased compared to same quarter in the prior year. Producing assets contributed positively to net income, however, the contribution was somewhat lower than in the first quarter of last year due to lower prices. Net income from producing assets was more than offset by net losses from projects under development. Project expenses have increased compared to the first quarter of 2022 due to higher activity levels as projects progress.
In the first quarter of 2023, the decrease in net operating income and adjusted earnings* compared to the same period last year was driven by increased business development costs due to higher activity levels in the US, the UK and Asia. In the first quarter of 2022, net operating income included divestment gains of USD 87 million from the Dogger Bank C wind farm project.
The acquisition of BeGreen which closed in the first quarter of 2023 and investment related to projects in the US significantly contributed to the additions to PP&E, intangibles and equity accounted investments for the first quarter of 2023 compared to last year.

FIRST QUARTER 2023 REVIEW CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL
Equinor Group (Equinor) consists of Equinor ASA and its subsidiaries. Equinor ASA is incorporated and domiciled in Norway and listed on the Oslo Børs (Norway) and the New York Stock Exchange (USA). The address of its registered office is Forusbeen 50, N-4035 Stavanger, Norway.
The objective of Equinor is to develop, produce and market various forms of energy and derived products and services, as well as other business. The activities may also be carried out through participation in or cooperation with other companies. Equinor Energy AS, a 100% owned operating subsidiary of Equinor ASA and owner of all of Equinor's oil and gas activities and net assets on the Norwegian continental shelf, is co-obligor or guarantor of certain debt obligations of Equinor ASA.
Equinor's condensed interim financial statements for the first quarter of 2023 were authorised for issue by the board of directors on 3 May 2023.
These condensed interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34 Interim Financial Reporting as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and as adopted by the European Union (EU). The condensed interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required
by International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) for a complete set of financial statements, and these condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated annual financial statements for 2022. IFRS as adopted by the EU differs in certain respects from IFRS as issued by the IASB, however the differences do not impact Equinor's financial statements for the periods presented. A description of the material accounting policies applied in preparing these condensed interim financial statements is included in Equinor`s consolidated annual financial statements for 2022.
There have been no changes to the material accounting policies during 2023 compared to the consolidated annual financial statements for 2022.
Certain amounts in the comparable periods in the note disclosures have been reclassified to conform to current period presentation. The subtotals and totals in some of the tables may not equal the sum of the amounts shown due to rounding. When determining fair value, there have been no changes to the valuation techniques or models and Equinor applies the same sources of input and the same criteria for categorisation in the fair value hierarchy as disclosed in the Consolidated annual financial statements for 2022.
The Condensed interim financial statements are unaudited.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of policies and reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and associated assumptions are reviewed on an on-going basis and are based on historical experience and various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making the judgments about carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates.
Equinor's operations are managed through operating segments identified on the basis of those components of Equinor that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision maker, Equinor's Corporate Executive Committee (CEC). The reportable segments Exploration & Production Norway (E&P Norway), Exploration & Production International (E&P International), Exploration & Production USA E&P USA), Marketing, Midstream & Processing (MMP) and Renewables (REN) correspond to the operating segments. The operating segments Projects, Drilling & Procurement (PDP), Technology, Digital & Innovation (TDI) and Corporate staff and functions are aggregated into the reportable segment Other based on materiality. The majority of the costs in PDP and TDI is allocated to the three Exploration & Production segments, MMP and REN.
The accounting policies of the reporting segments equal those described in these Consolidated financial statements, except for the line-item Additions to PP&E, intangibles and equity accounted investments in which movements related to changes in asset retirement obligations are excluded as well as provisions for onerous contracts which reflect only obligations towards group external parties. The measurement basis of segment profit is net operating income/(loss). Deferred tax assets, pension assets, noncurrent financial assets, total current assets and total liabilities are not allocated to the segments. Transactions between the segments, mainly from the sale of crude oil, gas, and related products, are performed at defined internal prices which have been derived from market prices. The transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.

On 26 January 2023, Equinor closed a transaction with the Bregentved Group and members of the executive board of BeGreen Solar Aps to acquire 100% of the shares in the Danish solar developer BeGreen Solar Aps. The cash consideration amounted to USD 252 million (EUR 235 million), in addition to a consideration contingent on the successful delivery of future solar projects above an agreed megawatt threshold. The transaction has been accounted for within the REN segment as a business combination, resulting in an increase of Equinor's intangible assets of USD 423 million. The purchase price and the purchase price allocation are preliminary.
On 3 March 2023, Equinor entered into an agreement to acquire 100% of Suncor Energy UK Limited for a total consideration of USD 850 million before adjustments for working capital and net cash. USD 250 million is contingent on a final investment decision on the Rosebank field. The transaction
includes a non-operated interest in the producing Buzzard oil field (29.89%) and an additional interest in the operated Rosebank development (40%). Closing of the transaction is expected to take place in the second quarter of 2023 subject to relevant regulatory approvals and will be recognised in the E&P International segment.
On 31 March 2023, Equinor closed the transaction with Vermilion Energy Inc (Vermillion) to sell Equinor's non-operated equity position in the Corrib gas project in Ireland, covering 100% of the shares in Equinor Energy Ireland Limited (EEIL). Prior to closing, Equinor received an extraordinary dividend of USD 371 million from EEIL. Total consideration amounted to USD 362 million, including cash settlement of contingent consideration. A loss of USD 258 million has been recognised and presented in the line item Operating expenses in the Consolidated statement of income within the E&P International segment.
When attributing the line item Revenues from contracts with customers for the first quarter of 2023 to the country of the legal entity executing the sale, Norway
constitutes 84% and USA constitutes 12% of such revenues. For the first quarter of 2022, Norway and USA constituted 86% and 10% of such revenues, respectively.

Equinor reports significant unrealised foreign currency gains in the first quarter, mainly related to strengthening of USD versus NOK. These effects are mainly due to a large part of Equinor's operations having NOK as functional currency, and the effects are offset within equity as OCI effects arising on translation from functional currency to presentation currency USD.
The increase in Interest income and other financial items in first quarter compared to the previous quarter and same quarter prior year mainly relates to higher
interest rates and increased Cash and cash equivalents and Current financial investments.
Equinor has a US Commercial paper programme available with a limit of USD 5 billion. As of 31 March 2023, USD 1.4 billion were utilised compared to USD 0.2 billion utilised as of 31 December 2022.

| Income tax | (8,741) | (6,572) | (12,509) |
| Effective tax rate | 63.8% | 45.4% | 72.6% |
The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2023 was significantly influenced by lower share of income from the Norwegian continental shelf and currency effects in entities that are taxable in other currencies than the functional currency.
The effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2022 was primarily influenced by high share of operating income from the Norwegian continental shelf and losses including impairments recognised in countries with lower effective tax rates, partially offset by positive income in countries with unrecognised deferred tax assets. The tax rate is also influenced by currency effects in entities that are taxable in other currencies than the functional currency.
During the normal course of its business, Equinor is involved in legal and other proceedings, and several unresolved claims are currently outstanding. The ultimate liability or asset in respect of such litigation and claims cannot be determined at this time. Equinor has provided in its Condensed interim financial statements for probable liabilities related to litigation and claims based on the company's best judgement. Equinor does not expect that its financial position, results of operations or cash flows will be materially affected by the resolution of these legal proceedings.
The line-item Prepayments and Financial Receivables includes USD 213 million which represent a gross receivable from the Norwegian state under the Marketing Instruction in relation to the state's (SDFI) expected participation in the gas sales activities of a foreign subsidiary of Equinor. At year-end 2022, the corresponding amount was USD 1,461 million. The decrease is mainly related to reduced gas storage volumes due to gas sales. A corresponding noncurrent liability of USD 213 million has been recognised, representing SDFI's estimated interest in the gas sales activities in the foreign subsidiary. Total non-current liabilities to SDFI amounts to USD 770 million at 31 March 2023 (USD 2,072 million at year end 2022).
On 3 May 2023, the Board of Directors resolved to declare an ordinary cash dividend for the first quarter of 2023 of USD 0.30 per share and an extraordinary cash dividend of USD 0.60 per share. The Equinor shares will be traded ex-dividend 14 August 2023 on the Oslo Børs and for ADR holders on the New York Stock Exchange. Record date will be 15 August 2023 and payment date will be 25 August 2022.
The purpose of the share buy-back programme is to reduce the issued share capital, and all shares repurchased will be cancelled. According to agreement between Equinor and the Norwegian State, a proportionate share of the Norwegian State's shares will be redeemed and annulled at the annual general meeting, ensuring that the State's ownership interest in Equinor remains unchanged at 67%. The
Board of Directors has proposed an annual buy-back programme for 2023 with up to USD 6 billion, including shares to be redeemed from the Norwegian State, subject to authorisation from the annual general meeting.
On 7 February 2023, Equinor launched the first tranche of USD 1 billion. USD 330 million order has been acquired in the open market and the full amount has been settled, while USD 670 million of shares from the Norwegian State will be redeemed at the annual general meeting in May 2023. On 3 May 2023, the Board of Directors resolved the commencement of the second tranche of the share buy-back programme for 2023 of a total of around USD 1.67 billion, including shares to be redeemed from the Norwegian State. The second tranche is subject to approval at the general meeting and will end no later than 25 July 2023.

Non-GAAP financial measures are defined as numerical measures that either exclude or include amounts or certain accounting items that are not excluded or included in the comparable measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP (i.e., IFRS).
Management considers adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings after tax together with other non-GAAP financial measures as defined below, to provide a better indication of the underlying operational and financial performance in the period (excluding financing), and therefore better facilitate comparisons between periods.
The following financial measures may be considered non-GAAP financial measures:
• Adjusted earnings are based on net operating income/(loss) and adjusts for certain items affecting the income for the period in order to separate out effects that management considers may not be well correlated to Equinor's underlying operational performance in the individual reporting period. Management considers adjusted earnings to be a supplemental measure to Equinor's IFRS measures, which provides an indication of Equinor's underlying operational performance in the period and facilitates an alternative understanding of operational trends between the periods. Adjusted earnings include adjusted revenues and other income, adjusted purchases, adjusted operating
expenses and selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted depreciation expenses and adjusted exploration expenses.
• Adjusted earnings after tax – equals the sum of net operating income/(loss) less income tax in business areas and adjustments to operating income taking the applicable marginal tax into consideration. Adjusted earnings after tax excludes net financial items and the associated tax effects on net financial items. It is based on adjusted earnings less the tax effects on all elements included in adjusted earnings (or calculated tax on operating income and on each of the adjusting items using an estimated marginal tax rate). In addition, tax effect related to tax exposure items not related to the individual reporting period is excluded from adjusted earnings after tax. Management considers adjusted earnings after tax, which reflects a normalised tax charge associated with its operational performance excluding the impact of financing, to be a supplemental measure to Equinor's net income. Certain net USD denominated financial positions are held by group companies that have a USD functional currency that is different from the currency in which the taxable income is measured. As currency exchange rates change between periods, the basis for measuring net financial items for IFRS will change disproportionally with taxable income which includes exchange gains and losses from translating the net USD denominated financial positions into the currency of the applicable tax return. Therefore, the effective tax rate may be significantly higher
or lower than the statutory tax rate for any given period. Adjusted taxes included in adjusted earnings after tax should not be considered indicative of the amount of current or total tax expense (or taxes payable) for the period.
Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings after tax should be considered additional measures rather than substitutes for net operating income/(loss) and net income/(loss), which are the most directly comparable IFRS measures. There are material limitations associated with the use of adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings after tax compared with the IFRS measures as such non-GAAP measures do not include all the items of revenues/gains or expenses/losses of Equinor that are needed to evaluate its profitability on an overall basis. Adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings after tax are only intended to be indicative of the underlying developments in trends of our ongoing operations for the production, manufacturing and marketing of our products and exclude pre-and post-tax impacts of net financial items. Equinor reflects such underlying development in our operations by eliminating the effects of certain items that may not be directly associated with the period's operations or financing. However, for that reason, adjusted earnings and adjusted earnings after tax are not complete measures of profitability. These measures should therefore not be used in isolation.

Equinor has made the following changes to the items adjusted for within Adjusted earnings:
These changes have been applied retrospectively to the comparative figures. The majority of the impact is due to the revised treatment of commodity derivatives. These changes only affect the MMP reporting segment and currently do not have an impact on other segments. Equinor deems that these changes lead to a better representation of performance in each period by appropriately reflecting the economic impact of its risk management activities.

capital expenditures included in this report are not reconcilable to its most directly comparable IFRS measure without unreasonable efforts, because the amounts excluded from such IFRS measure to determine organic capital expenditures cannot be predicted with reasonable certainty.

risk exposure relating to its commercial storage. These derivative contracts are carried at fair value while the inventories are accounted for at the lower of cost or market price. Therefore, measurement differences occur in relation to the recognition of gains and losses. An adjustment is made to align the valuation principles of inventories with related derivative contracts. With effect from the first quarter of 2023, the adjusted valuation of inventories is based on the forward price at the expected realisation date. This is so that the valuation principles between commercial storages and derivative contracts are better aligned.
