Eni's Board of Directors, chaired by Lucia Calvosa, yesterday approved the unaudited consolidated results for the second quarter and first half 2022. Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi said:

"Amid uncertainty and volatility in markets we moved fast to secure new energy supplies. After new gas agreements with our partners in Algeria, Congo and Egypt earlier in the year, in June Eni entered the North Field East venture in Qatar, part of the world's largest LNG project. In East Africa, gas production started from the Eni's operated Coral South FLNG, the first development of Mozambique's large potential. In Italy, we have invested to rebuild gas storage ahead of winter and our refineries raised their processing rates significantly to ensure oil products are available for the market.

While maximizing our efforts on energy security, we continue to execute our decarbonisation strategy. In Plenitude the build-up of our renewable generation capacity progresses towards over 2 GW by year end; given market condition, the IPO has been postponed but remains our intention. Our Sustainable Mobility business will enhance the value of our biorefineries, vertically integrating with our innovative agri-business and portfolio of decarbonized solutions. Development of breakthrough technology is at our core and the construction of the magnetic fusion demonstration plant is well underway, aiming at producing net energy by 2025.

Financial delivery is underpinned by our continued efforts on efficiency and cost control. The Group adjusted EBIT for the quarter was €5.8 billion driven by E&P and R&M and adjusted net income was €3.8 billion. With an adjusted cash flow of €10.8 billion we are able to cover our organic capex of €3.4 billion, and our distribution policy for the full year. Based on these robust results and our updated market outlook, we are enhancing shareholders' distribution by raising the 2022 share buyback to €2.4 billion."

Financial highlights of the second quarter of 2022

• Group adjusted EBIT in the second quarter 2022 was €5.84 billion, up 13% q-o-q and more than doubling y-o-y driven by the favorable commodity price environment, strong refining margins and the focus on cost management and business operating performance.
• E&P delivered €4.87 billion of adjusted EBIT in the second quarter 2022, up by 11% q-o-q and more than doubling y-o-y, fully capturing the improved scenario. Production in the quarter was 1.58 million boe/d down 1% y-o-y and slightly decreasing from the previous quarter due to primarily force majeure events in Libya, Nigeria and Kazakhstan.
• After a strong first quarter thanks to the LNG business and portfolio flexibility, GGP was at break-even in the second quarter, reflecting normal seasonal patterns in profitability.
• R&M performed very well, achieving adjusted EBIT of €979 million driven by strong refining margins but outperforming thanks to higher utilization, output optimization, efficiency measures to address utilities costs, and despite the higher expenses required to replace Russian crudes in our refinery slate.
• Despite the rising prices of oil-based feedstock and higher utilities costs driven by natural gas prices, the chemicals business managed by Versalis reported a positive result of €125 million in the second quarter, reversing the €115 million loss of the first quarter 2022, thanks to efficiency initiatives and the optimization of production volumes.
• Plenitude (including the retail, renewables & electric mobility businesses) reported second quarter adjusted EBIT of €112 million (+58% y-o-y) driven by a ramp-up in produced volumes of renewable electricity, higher wholesale prices and effective customer base management, confirming the resilience of our integrated business model.

The legacy business of natural gas-fired power and steam production reported a lower adjusted EBIT compared to the second quarter 2021 (down 24%) due to a less favorable scenario, partly offset by higher revenues on services (capacity market and dispatching). At the end of July, the divestment of a 49% stake of the business to a minority shareholder was closed with net proceeds to Eni of €0.55 billion.

• Group adjusted net profit in the second quarter was €3.81 billion (€7.08 billion in the first half 2022), an improvement of €2.9 billion y-o-y (€5.9 billion increase in the first half) reflecting this strong EBIT result and further helped by the performance of our equity-accounted entities and a lower tax rate (quarter on quarter tax rate was essentially in line). The year over year reduction in the tax rate mainly relates to an improvement in the geographical mix of pre-tax profits and scenario-related effects in E&P, as well as in Italy better profitability in the lower taxed downstream, and also for the first half midstream.
• In the second quarter 2022, the Group adjusted cash flow before working capital at replacement cost was €5.19 billion. In the first half of 2022, it reached €10.80 billion, more than doubling y-o-y. After funding first half organic capex of €3.44 billion, +18% y-o-y due to a stronger US dollar and planned post lockdown activity, and working capital needs, the Group realised an organic FCF of about €5 billion.
• Dividend distribution: in May Eni paid its final 2021 dividend of €0.43 per share, amounting to €1.52 billion. The first quarterly instalment of 2022 dividend of €0.22 per share will be paid in September 2022.
• Buy-back program: based on the authorization granted by the Shareholders Meeting on May 11, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a new share purchase program to be executed through April 2023, providing for a minimum outlay of €1.1 billion and a possible upside up to €2.5 billion depending on trends in the scenario.
• The 2022 buy-back program commenced at the end of May and through July 22, 2022, 29.4 million shares have been purchased for a cash outlay of €355 million. Following the Board's revised outlook for the Brent crude oil prices, now expected at 105 \$/bbl average for the full year 2022 and reflecting the effects of the stronger US dollar plus broader strength in the Group's cash flows the buy-back commitment has been raised by €1.3 billion to €2.4 billion.
• Net borrowing ex IFRS 16 as of June 30, 2022, was €7.9 billion down by €1.1 billion compared to December 31, 2021, and the Group leverage stood at 0.15 versus 0.20 as of December 31, 2021.

Main business developments

Strengthening the natural gas portfolio

• Secured alternative sources of gas supply to Italy and Europe by leveraging Eni's strong strategic alliances, accelerating a key component of Eni's long-term strategy, where equity gas will progressively play a major role.
• New supply agreements with Algeria, Egypt and Congo were signed and additional opportunities may also arise in other countries in our global gas portfolio: including Libya, Angola, Mozambique, Indonesia and Italy.
• The initiatives are designed to deliver up to an equivalent of 100% of Russia's 20 billion cubic meters of annual gas import to the Italian market secured by 2025.
• In June, Eni entered in the Qatar's North Field East project, the world's largest LNG project, expanding its presence in the Middle East and gaining access to a leading LNG producer country.

Exploration & Production

• In the first half of 2022 added about 300 million boe of new resources to reserve base. Main discoveries were made close to existing assets and facilities as part of our fast-track development model: in Algeria, near to the Bir Rebaa North field complex and in the Berkine North basin, in Angola Block 15/06 in particular with the incremental result of the appraisal well Ndungu-2, and in Abu Dhabi with the well XF-002. In addition, findings in the Meleiha concessions, in Egypt's Western Desert, have already been tied to existing production facilities.
• Appraisal of the Baleine discovery with the well Baleine East-1X in Block CI-802, increasing the potential mineral resources of the area to around 2.5 bbbl and 3.3 Tcf of associated gas in place. The well has been successfully tested, allowing the optimization of ongoing and future development plans.
• Start-up in Angola: the Ndungu field started production by hooking it up to the Ngoma Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) located in the operated Block 15/06.
• In July, reached the final investment decision (FID) by New Gas Consortium (Eni 25.6%, operator) for the development of the Quiluma and Maboqueiro fields in Angola. The project, the first non-associated gas development in the country, is planned to start-up in 2026 with an expected production plateau at 330 mmcf/d.
• In July, signed with Sonatrach, Oxy and TotalEnergies a new Production Sharing Contract (PSC) for blocks 404 and 208 located in the Berkine basin in Algeria. This will allow to boost investments, increasing the fields' reserves while enabling future valorization of associated gas, available for export, further contributing to the diversification of gas supplies to Europe.
• In July, completed the construction of an oilseed collection and pressing plant (agri-hub) in Makueni, Kenya and started the production of the first vegetable oil for bio-refineries. The first agri-hub will have an installed capacity of 15,000 tons with an expected production of 2,500 tons in 2022.
• In June, started the commissioning of the Coral Sul Floating Liquefied Natural Gas (FLNG) vessel, offshore Mozambique, by safely achieving the introduction of natural gas from the Coral South reservoir into the treatment plant. First LNG cargo is scheduled for the second half of 2022.
• In May, Solenova, a venture equally owned by Eni and the Angolan national oil company Sonangol, commenced construction of the Country's first photovoltaic project in Caraculo, with a targeted generation capacity of 50 MW, being the first phase of 25 MW.
• In May, signed with Sonatrach a MoU to evaluate viability of a green hydrogen project at the Bir Rebaa North concession, to enable decarbonizing the operations of the gas complex.

Refining & Marketing and Chemicals

In July, Versalis, Eni's chemical company, agreed terms with Forever Plast to acquire a license to build a mechanical recycling unit for post-consumer plastics from waste, capable of manufacturing 50 ktonnes/year of recycled polymer compounds. The expected start-up is in 2024 and the plant will be located in Porto Marghera contributing to the progressive transformation of industrial hub.

• In June, Versalis started recycling plastics from used industrial packaging. The project has successfully tested sacks made at 50% with recycled materials for the packaging and shipping of polyethylene products. The new product will be deployed at all Versalis industrial hubs.
• In June, the first Eni-branded hydrogen refuelling station was inaugurated in Venice Mestre. The station is equipped with two dispensing points with a capacity of over 100 kg/day, where vehicles or buses could be filled in about 5 minutes.
• In May, Enjoy, Eni's car sharing service, introduced in the City of Turin the first 100 new XEV YOYO city cars among its fleet. The XEV YOYO is a fully electric city car designed for battery swapping, which can be done in just a few minutes.
• In April, signed a cooperation agreement with Iveco to develop a sustainable mobility platform for commercial fleets by offering innovative vehicles powered by biofuels and other sustainable energy vectors, as well as the related supply infrastructure.
• In April, signed an agreement with the Chinese Shandong Eco Chemical Co. Ltd. to license Versalis proprietary continuous mass technology to manufacture styrenic polymers with a low-carbon footprint.

Plenitude and Power

• In July, Plenitude and HitecVision reached a deal to boost the joint venture Vårgrønn in Norway to become a material full cycle offshore wind player. Plenitude will contribute to the venture a 20% interest in the Dogger Bank offshore wind project in the UK, with HitecVision increasing its ownership share from 30.4% to 35% through a cash injection.
• In May, signed an agreement with Ansaldo Energia to evaluate technologies for storing electricity, as an alternative to electrochemical batteries. Those technologies will be implemented in synergy at Eni's industrial hubs in Italy, leveraging existing power generation and consumption systems.
• In April, Plenitude announced an investment in EnerOcean S.L., a Spanish developer of the W2Power technology for floating wind power. The agreement is structured as a long-term partnership focused on the deployment of the W2Power technology as a lead solution for floating wind power developments worldwide. Plenitude will contribute with capital and expertise to the EnerOcean development program and initially retain a 25% equity share in EnerOcean S.L., which will continue to operate independently.
• In April, GreenIT, a joint venture between Plenitude and the Italian agency CDP Equity, signed an agreement with the equity fund Copenhagen Infrastructure Partners (CIP) to build and operate two floating offshore wind farms in Sicily and Sardinia, with an expected total capacity of approximately 750 MW.

Decarbonization & Sustainability

• In July, signed a new €6 billion five-year Sustainability-Linked revolving credit line, linked to two targets of Eni "Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework" updated in May 2022. The new facility will increase the Group financial flexibility, further strengthening its solid liquidity position, and is consistent with Eni's goal of fully integrating its financing with its decarbonization strategy.
• In July, Eni was awarded the Energy Intelligence's Energy Innovation Award, in recognition of its preparedness for the energy transition and acceleration in low-carbon investments. Eni was ranked strongly in terms of emissions reduction targets, portfolio resilience and transformation of its business model.
• In June, Eni strengthened the collaboration with the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO) to pursue joint initiatives in the fields of green hydrogen, renewables, energy efficiency, technical education, youth employment and the agricultural value chain, particularly in Africa, as part of Eni's commitment to develop the UN's SDG.
• In June, an Eni-led sustainable initiative was launched in the Ivory Coast involving distribution of improved cookstoves to vulnerable households. It is estimated that more than three hundred thousand people from the Region of Gbêkê, will benefit from the projects, which aims at delivering one hundred thousand cookstoves over a period of 6 years.

Outlook 2022

The Company is issuing the following updated operational and financial guidance for the FY '22 based on information available to date, management's judgement of potential risks and uncertainties and assuming no additional material disruptions to Russian gas flow:

• E&P: Hydrocarbon production is expected at 1.67 million boe/d, in line with previous guidance of 1.7 million boe/d adjusted for force majeure effects and at the Company's updated price deck of 105 \$/bbl.
• E&P: Around 700 million boe of new exploration resources are expected to be discovered in 2022, up from 600 million boe previously guided.
• GGP: Reaffirmed guidance of adjusted EBIT of at least €1.2 billion. Second half EBIT is expected to be concentrated in the fourth quarter.
• Plenitude & Power: Reaffirmed Plenitude's EBITDA guidance, expected to be higher than €0.6 billion. We also confirm our guidance of more than 2 GW of installed renewable generation capacity by yearend.
• Downstream: Adjusted EBIT (R&M with ADNOC pro-forma and Versalis) is raised to the range of €1.8- 2 billion vs previous guidance of just positive territory, assuming a SERM of 6 \$/bbl in the second half of 2022.
• Our main price sensitivities foresee a variation of €130 million in free cash flow for each one-dollar change in the price of Brent crude oil and around €700 million for a 5 USD/cent movement in the USD/EUR cross rate vs our new assumption of 1.08 USD/EUR for 2022 and considering 105 \$/bbl Brent price.
• Adjusted cash flow before working capital at replacement cost is now expected to be €20 billion at 105 \$/bbl, vs our previous guidance of €16 billion at 90 \$/bbl.
• Organic capex is seen at €8.3 billion, in line with previous guidance of €7.7 billion adjusting for EUR/USD exchange rate updated assumption.
• Cash neutrality on a normalized basis is expected at a Brent price of around 40 \$/bbl, reflecting current strong underlying performance and cost management across our businesses.
• 2022 leverage ante IFRS 16 is seen at 0.13 at our price assumption.

• In the second quarter of 2022, hydrocarbon production averaged 1.58 million boe/d (1.62 million boe/d in the first half of 2022), down 1% compared to the second quarter of 2021 (down 2% compared to the first half of 2021). The decrease was due to unplanned outages, such as force majeure at the CPC export pipeline affecting our volumes in Kazakhstan, plant shutdowns in Libya due to a resumption of internal clashes, and rising sabotage and oil thefts in Nigeria. Net of those events, price effects and the progressive easing of OPEC+ production quotas (particularly in the United Arab Emirates), production increased by 1% year-on-year (essentially unchanged compared to the first half of 2021). Production was supported by ramp-ups in Indonesia, in a context of strong global demand for LNG, as well as by higher activity levels in Algeria and Angola, while Italy and the UK benefitted from a lower maintenance activity compared to 2021.
• Liquid production was 740 kbbl/d in the quarter, down 5% year-on-year (down 5% compared to the first half of 2021). The reduction in Kazakhstan, Nigeria and Libya was partly offset by production growth in Angola, Algeria and Italy as well as the progressive easing of OPEC+ production quotas.
• Natural gas production was 4,447 mmcf/d in the quarter, up 2% year-on-year (up 1% compared to the first half of 2021). Production ramp-ups in Indonesia and higher production in Algeria, the UK and Italy were partly offset by reductions in Libya and Nigeria.

In the second quarter of 2022, Exploration & Production continued on a strong uptrend with adjusted operating profit of €4,867 million, a 164% increase compared to the same period of 2021, driven by an ongoing recovery in the oil scenario and a tight worldwide market for natural gas, as well as by cost discipline. Against this backdrop, Eni's realized prices of liquids increased by 65%, whereas natural gas realized prices increased by 84% compared to the same period of 2021. In the first half of 2022 adjusted operating profit was €9,248 million, up 187% compared to the first half of 2021, due to the same drivers as for the second quarter.

In the second quarter of 2022, the segment reported an adjusted net profit of €3,228 million, an increase of about €2.2 billion compared to the second quarter of 2021 (€6,148 million in the first half of 2022, an increase of €4,376 million compared to the same period of 2021) helped by a robust performance of the equity-accounted entities Vår Energi (up €139 million) and Angola LNG, as well as a lower tax rate (down 5 and 7 percentage points compared to the second quarter and the first half of 2021, respectively). The lower tax rate is related to scenario effects and a more favorable geographic profit mix reflecting a higher share of taxable income earned in countries with more favourable statutory tax rates.

(*) Data include intercompany sales.

In the second quarter of 2022, natural gas sales of 13.38 bcm decreased by 21% compared to the same period of 2021, due to the lower gas volumes marketed in Italy, particularly at the spot market and in the wholesale segment, and in the European markets, mainly in France. Also, worldwide LNG sales decreased compared to the second quarter of 2021. These negatives were partly offset by higher gas volumes marketed in Germany. In the first half of 2022, natural gas sales amounted to 31.64 bcm, down 8% vs the same period of 2021, due to the same drivers as for the quarter.

• In the second quarter of 2022, the Standard Eni Refining Margin recorded an exceptional level, setting an average of 17.2 \$/barrel (8.2 \$/barrel in the first half of 2022) vs. negative values reported in the previous quarter and in the same period of 2021. Growing demand for gasoline, jet fuel and gasoil has materialized from the second half of March 2022 due to the restart of economic activity against a backdrop of limited supply, particularly of gasoil, owing to bottlenecks and capacity constrains across the industry, resulting in very strong products crack spreads.
• In the second quarter of 2022, throughputs on own accounts at Eni's refineries in Italy were 4.63 mmtonnes, 16% higher than in the second quarter 2021 due to a favorable refining scenario, with the main increases recorded at Milazzo, Sannazzaro and Taranto refineries (in the first half of 2022 throughputs increased by 4%). Throughputs in the rest of world increased by 1% in both 2022 reporting periods compared to 2021, thanks to higher volumes processed in Germany.
• In the second quarter of 2022, bio throughputs were 144 ktonnes, barely changed compared to the same period of 2021, impacted by lower volumes processed at the Gela biorefinery following a shutdown that occurred in the first months of the year, offset by higher volumes at the Venice biorefinery. In the first half of 2022, bio throughputs decreased by 22% compared to the same period of 2021.
• In the second quarter of 2022, retail sales in Italy were 1.35 mmtonnes, up 6% year-on-year due to higher volumes of gasoil, gasoline and LPG following the restarting of economic activities and travel. In the first half of 2022, retail sales amounted to 2.55 mmtonnes, up 10% vs. the first half of 2021. The market share in the second quarter 2022 was 21.7% (22.3% in the second quarter 2021).
• In the second quarter of 2022, wholesale sales in Italy were 1.60 mmtonnes, up 10% compared to the same period in 2021, driven by higher sales in the jet fuel segment. Positive performance was also recorded in the first half of 2022 at 2.92 mmtonnes: up 6% vs. the first half of 2021.
• Sales of chemical products were 1.07 mmtonnes in the second quarter of 2022, down 6% compared to the same period in 2021, due to lower chemicals and raw materials availability and the unfavorable scenario mainly in the polyethylene segment. In the first half of 2022, sales amounted to 2.20 mmtonnes, down 5% vs. the first half of 2021.
• In the second quarter of 2022 cracker, elastomers and styrenics margins improved supported by higher prices due to demand recovery and lower imports and in the elastomer segment following higher demand in the tyre segment. Margin in the polyethylene segments reported a sharp decreased compared to the second quarter of 2021.

• In the second quarter of 2022, the Refining & Marketing business achieved an adjusted operating profit of €979 million, a significant improvement compared to a loss in same period of 2021 (€1,003 million in the first half of 2022, compared to loss of €171 million in the first half 2021). The performance was driven by materially higher refining margins, which the business was able to fully capture by ensuring high levels of plant availability. Results also benefitted from optimization measures and initiatives to reduce energy costs of industrial processes by replacing gas with cheaper alternatives. The marketing business reported better results due to higher sales volumes benefitting from the reopening of the economy and increased mobility.
• The Chemicals business, managed by Versalis, in the second quarter of 2022, reported an adjusted operating profit of €125 million, down €77 million compared to the second quarter of 2021 mainly due to a strong increase in the cost of oil-based feedstock and higher plant utilities expenses indexed to the price of natural gas. These were partly offset by optimization measures intended to reduce natural gas consumption and steady margins of polymers. In the first half of 2022, the adjusted operating result was a profit of €10 million, compared to a profit of €241 million reported in the first half of 2021, reflecting unusual market conditions in the first part of 2021.

• Retail and business gas sales amounted to 0.95 bcm in the second quarter of 2022, decreasing by 12% compared to the same period in 2021 mainly due to lower gas volumes marketed outside Italy particularly in France. In Italy retail and business gas sales were substantially unchanged vs. the comparative period. In the first half of 2022 sales amounted to 4.37 bcm, down by 5% due to the same drivers as for the second quarter.
• Retail and business power sales to end customers were 4.49 TWh in the second quarter of 2022, up 16% and benefitting from the growth of activities in Italy as well as from the acquisition of Aldro Energía (9.58 TWh in the first half of 2022, up 27% from the same period in 2021).
• Energy production from renewable sources amounted to 662 GWh in the second quarter of 2022, an almost five-fold increase year-on-year, mainly thanks to the contribution from the acquired assets in operation.
• As of June 30, 2022, the installed capacity from renewables was 1.5 GW. Capacity increased by 0.4 GW from December 31, 2021, mainly due to the acquisition of Corazon photovoltaic plant in the USA, the installation of the first plant of the Brazoria photovoltaic project (68 MW) in the USA, as well as the acquisition of Fortore Energia wind farm in Italy.
• Power sales in the open market were 5.61 TWh in the second quarter of 2022, down 14% year-onyear mainly due to lower volumes marketed to power exchange (11.34 TWh in the first half of 2022, representing a reduction of 13% compared to the same period in 2021).

In the second quarter of 2022, Plenitude reported an adjusted operating profit of €112 million, an increase of €41 million compared to the same period in 2021, due to a ramp-up in produced volumes of renewable electricity and higher wholesale prices, as well as effective customer base management, partly offset by a negative trading environment, adverse regulatory effects. In the first half of 2022, adjusted operating result was €251 million barely unchanged from the same period in 2021 due to the same drivers as for the second quarter.

The Power generation business from gas-fired plants in the second quarter of 2022, reported an adjusted operating profit of €28 million, down 24% compared to the same period in 2021, mainly due to lower power sales in the open market. In the first half of 2022, adjusted operating result was €74 million, up €11 million compared to the first half of 2021.

Adjusted results

• In the second quarter of 2022, the Group reported an adjusted operating profit of €5,841 million, more than doubling the second quarter of 2021 (up €3,796 million) due to strengthening hydrocarbon prices, supported by better fundamentals and a tight natural gas market, and materially higher refining margins. These positive trends boosted the E&P performance (up €3,026 million compared to the second quarter of 2021) and the R&M business which earned almost €1 billion of operating profit vs losses in the comparative periods. In the first half of 2022, the Group reported an adjusted operating profit of €11,032 million, an improvement of €7,666 million compared to the first half of 2021 thanks to the E&P segment and R&M business due to the above-mentioned drivers and also the GGP segment due to a strong performance in the first quarter of the year.
• Adjusted net result was €3,808 million in the second quarter of 2022, an improvement compared to €929 million in the second quarter of 2021, due to significantly higher results at equity-accounted JVs and associates (up €712 million from the second quarter of 2021) and a better consolidated tax rate. In the first half of 2022 the Group reported an adjusted net result of €7,078 million, up by €5,879 million from the first half of 2021.
• Review of the Group's tax rate: the consolidated tax rate was 38.7% in the second quarter of 2022, down by approximately 9 percentage points vs. the second quarter of 2021. In the first half of 2022, the tax rate was lowered to 38.1%. This was mainly driven by the improved tax rate in E&P due to scenario-related effects and a more favorable geographic profit mix reflecting a higher share of taxable income earned in countries with more favorable statutory tax rates. Furthermore, the Group mix of taxable profit improved from a year ago due to a recovery in the profitability outlook of Italian subsidiaries, whereas in 2021 the recognition of deferred tax asset on losses for the period was limited by lower profitability prospects.

Net cash provided by operating activities for the first half of 2022 was €7.3 billion, an increase of €3.2 billion compared to the first half of 2021, driven by a better scenario in the upstream segment and a strong contribution from R&M business. The cash flow benefitted from trade receivables (€2.7 billion) due in subsequent reporting periods divested to financing institutions, up by approximately €0.6 billion compared to the amount divested at the end of 2021 and slightly higher than the net benefit made in the first half 2021.

The outflow relating to the working capital of approximately €3.8 billion was due to the change in the value of inventory holding accounted for under the weighted-average method in a rising price environment, the build-up of gas inventories and invoice payments for gas supplies. The dividends received by investments mainly related to Vår Energi and Nigeria LNG.

Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital at replacement cost was €10,797 million. This non-GAAP measure includes net cash provided by operating activities before changes in working capital and excluding the following items: inventory holding gains or losses relating to oil and products, the timing difference between gas inventories accounted at weighted average cost and management own measure of performance leveraging inventories to optimize margin, provisions for extraordinary credit losses and charges, and the fair value of commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be designated as hedges, the first instalment of an Italian one-off windfall tax levied on energy companies for fiscal year 2022, as well as the reclassification as an operating cash flow of a reimbursement of share capital made by an associate.

Organic capex was €3.44 billion, higher than the comparative period in 2021 (up 18%), and included the funding of the CFS (Commonwealth Fusion Systems) venture engaged in developing magnetic fusion. They were fully funded by the adjusted net cash flow.

Cash outflows for acquisitions net of divestments were €0.9 billion (including acquired net finance debt) and related to the acquisition of a 20% stake in the Dogger Bank C offshore wind project in the North Sea, the 100% stake in SKGR company owner of a portfolio of photovoltaic plants in Greece, renewable capacity in the United States as well as a capital contribution to our joint venture Saipem to support a new industrial plan and a financial restructuring of the investee. These outflows were partly offset by the divestment of a stake of the joint venture Vår Energi, with proceeds net to Eni of about €0.5 billion.

Net financial borrowings before IFRS 16 decreased by around €1.1 billion due to the organic free cash flow (approximately €5 billion), partly offset by the payment of the 2021 balance dividends to Eni's shareholders of approximately €1.5 billion, the €0.2 billion buy-back program, net effect of acquisitions and divestments (€0.9 billion of cash outflow), payments of lease liabilities for €0.6 billion, the payment of the coupon of perpetual subordinated bonds, as well as by the effect of exchange differences and other minor changes on net borrowings (€0.6 billion).

As of June 30, 2022, fixed assets of €72.8 billion decreased by €1.5 billion from December 31, 2021, due to the reclassification of Eni Angola's assets as held for sale following the merger agreement signed in March 2022 with BP. Other movements in fixed assets included capital expenditure and acquisitions incurred in the period and positive currency translation differences (the period-end exchange rate of EUR vs. USD was 1.039, down 8.3% compared to 1.133 as of December 31, 2021), partly offset by DD&A (€3,612 million).

Net working capital (-€12.6 billion) increased by €2.1 billion mainly as a result of increased value of oil and product inventories due to the weighted-average cost method of accounting in an environment of rising prices (up €2.7 billion). These were partly offset by the accrual of income taxes for the period of €1.2 billion (net of payments made), as well as by a decrease in other current assets and liabilities (down €2.04 billion) due to fair value changes of derivative instruments.

Shareholders' equity (€52 billion) increased by approximately €7.5 billion compared to December 31, 2021, due to the net profit for the period (€7.4 billion), positive foreign currency translation differences (about €3.5 billion) reflecting the appreciation of the US dollar vs. the euro as of June 30, 2022, vs. December 31, 2021, partly offset by the negative change in the cash flow hedge reserve of €2.7 billion reflecting trends in gas prices and dividend payments.

Net borrowings¹ before lease liabilities as of June 30, 2022, were €7.9 billion, down €1.1 billion from December 31, 2021. Leverage2 – the ratio of the borrowings to total equity calculated before the impact of IFRS 16 - was 0.15 on June 30, 2022, lower than December 31, 2021 (0.20).

Special items

The breakdown of special items recorded in operating profit by segment (net charges of €1,061 million and of €509 million in the first half and in the second quarter, respectively) is as follows:

• E&P: net charges of €125 million in the first half (net charges of €88 million in the second quarter) mainly related to the impairment of certain assets to align the book value to fair value (€43 million and €35 million in the first half and second quarter, respectively), impairment losses of credits (€27 million in the first half), provisions for redundancy incentive (€17 million in the first half) and risk provision (€7 million in both reporting periods).
• GGP: net charges of €2,977 million in the first half (€1,069 million in the second quarter) mainly included the accounting effect of certain fair-valued commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be classified as hedges or to be elected under the own use exemption (charge of €2,874 million and of €831 million in the first half and in the second quarter, respectively) following a noticeable increase in natural gas prices; and the difference between the value of gas inventories accounted for under the weighted-average cost method provided by IFRS and management's own measure of inventories, which moves forward at the time of inventory drawdown the margins captured on volumes in inventories above their normal levels leveraging the seasonal spread in gas prices net of the effects of the associated commodity derivatives (gains of €53 million in the first half and charges of €121 million in the second quarter).

The reclassification to adjusted operating profit of the positive balance of €148 million (€113 million in the second quarter) related to derivative financial instruments used to manage margin exposure to foreign currency exchange rate movements and exchange translation differences of commercial payables and receivables.

• R&M and Chemicals: net charges of €122 million (€112 million in the second quarter) and mainly related to environmental charges (€124 million and €110 million in the first half and the second quarter, respectively), the write-down of capital expenditures made for compliance and stay-in-business at certain Cash Generating Units with expected negative cash flows (€103 million and €58 million in the first half and in the second quarter, respectively). These charges were partly offset by the reclassification to adjusted operating profit of the negative balance of €41 million (€34 million in the quarter) related to exchange rate differences and derivatives, an insurance compensation (gains of €23 million) and net gains on disposal of €7 million as well as the accounting effect of certain fair-valued commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be classified as hedges (gains of €27 million in the first half).
• Plenitude & Power: net gains of €2,288 million (€879 million in the second quarter) including the accounting effect of certain fair-valued commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be classified as hedges driven by material increases of natural gas prices.

The other special items in the first half of 2022 were related to: (i) the gain on the share offering of the Vår Energi investee through an IPO and listing at the Norwegian stock exchange; (ii) a charge relating to an Italian windfall tax levied on energy companies for fiscal year 2022 enacted by Law 51/2022; (iii) the alignment to current values of the raw materials and products inventory of the ADNOC refinery.

Alternative performance indicators (Non‐GAAP measures)

Management evaluates underlying business performance on the basis of Non-GAAP financial measures, which are not provided by IFRS ("Alternative performance measures"), such as adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit, which are arrived at by excluding from reported results certain gains and losses, defined special items, which include, among others, asset impairments, including impairments of deferred tax assets, gains on disposals, risk provisions, restructuring charges, the accounting effect of fair-valued derivatives used to hedge exposure to the commodity, exchange rate and interest rate risks, which lack the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges, and analogously evaluation effects of assets and liabilities utilized in a relation of natural hedge of the above mentioned market risks. Furthermore, in determining the business segments' adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income are excluded (see below). In determining adjusted results, inventory holding gains or losses are excluded from base business performance, which 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, except in those business segments where inventories are utilized as a lever to optimize margins.

Finally, the same special charges/gains are excluded from the Eni's share of results at JVs and other equity accounted entities, including any profit/loss on inventory holding.

Management is disclosing Non-GAAP measures of performance 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 performance of the reporting periods disclosed in this press release:

Adjusted operating and net profit

Adjusted operating profit and adjusted 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. 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 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 derivative market. Finally, special items include the accounting effects of fair-valued commodity derivatives relating to commercial exposures, in addition to those which lack the criteria to be designed as hedges, also those which are not eligible for the own use exemption, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, as well as the accounting effects of settled commodity and exchange rates derivatives whenever it is deemed that the underlying transaction is expected to occur in future reporting periods.

Correspondently, special charges/gains also include the evaluation effects relating to assets/liabilities utilized in a natural hedge relation to offset a market risk, as in the case of accrued currency differences at finance debt denominated in a currency other than the reporting currency, where the cash outflows for the reimbursement are matched by highly probable cash inflows in the same currency. The deferral of both the unrealized portion of fair-valued commodity and other derivatives and evaluation effects are reversed to future reporting periods when the underlying transaction occurs.

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.

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.

Gearing

Gearing is calculated as the ratio between net borrowings and capital employed net and measures how much of capital employed net is financed recurring to third-party funding.

Cash flow from operations before changes in working capital at replacement cost

This is defined as net cash provided from operating activities before changes in working capital at replacement cost. It also excludes certain non-recurring charges such as extraordinary credit allowances and, considering the high market volatility, changes in the fair value of commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be designed as hedges, including derivatives which were not eligible for the own use exemption, the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, as well as the effects of certain settled commodity derivatives whenever it is deemed that the underlying transaction is expected to occur in future reporting periods.

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

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 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.

In the first half of 2022, capital expenditure amounted to €3,211 million (€2,405 million in the half of 2021), increasing by 34% y-o-y, and mainly related to:

• oil and gas development activities (€2,062 million) mainly in the Egypt, United States, Angola, Mexico, the United Arab Emirates, Kazakhstan, Congo, Ivory Coast, Iraq, Italy and Algeria;

• refining activity in Italy and outside Italy (€139 million) mainly relating to the activities to maintain plants' integrity and stay-in-business, as well as HSE initiatives; marketing activity (€32 million) for regulation compliance and stay-in-business initiatives in the retail network in Italy and in the rest of Europe;

• Plenitude (€258 million) mainly relating marketing initiatives, acquisition of new customers and development activities in the renewable business.

KPIs refer to 100% of the operated assets.

• TRIR (Total recordable injury rate) of the workforce amounted to 0.38, a decrease compared to the first half of 2021, driven by a better performance reported in the employees.
• Direct GHG emissions (Scope 1) of the operated assets: 19.9 million tCO2eq., slightly increasing compared to the first half of 2021, due to the higher operating activities, mainly in the Power and GGP businesses.
• Direct GHG emissions (Scope 1)/operated hydrocarbon gross production (upstream): 20.8 tCO2eq./kboe, increasing compared to the same period of 2021 due to different operating conditions and lower production level.
• Direct methane emissions (Scope 1): a slight increase from the first half of 2021 to 28 ktonnes CH4 reflecting the direct GHG emissions trend.
• Volumes of hydrocarbon sent to routine flaring of 0.5 billion Sm3, a decrease from the first half of 2021.
• Total volume of oil spills: down by over 10% compared to the first half of 2021. The reduction in the upstream operating activities was partly offset by higher spills from sabotage, in Nigeria, where the installation program of the proprietary e-vpms technology (Eni Vibroacoustic Pipeline Monitoring System) is ongoing, aimed at the detection of vibro-acoustic variations in the pipelines and in the transported fluid.
• Upstream water reinjection decreased from the first half of 2021 due to non-strategic production assets razionalization.
