1. 3Q17 highlights

  • Group RCA Ebitda increased €103 m YoY to €487 m, supported by the performance of E&P and R&M, which more than offset the effect of the deconsolidation of the gas infrastructure business.
  • RCA Ebitda for E&P was €215 m, up €88 m YoY supported by production growth and higher oil and natural gas prices, although impacted by the Dollar depreciation against the Euro.
  • Average working interest (WI) production reached 94.6 kboepd, up 28% YoY, supported by the development of Lula and Iracema, in Brazil. Production in the quarter benefited from the ramp-up of FPSO P-66 (#7), albeit also impacted by planned outages on FPSOs Cidade de Itaguaí (#4) and Cidade de Maricá (#5), and by the end of maintenance works on FPSO Cidade de Angra dos Reis (#1).
  • Meanwhile, the Group's upstream division has reached a new milestone, with Galp now producing over 100,000 boe per day.
  • RCA Ebitda for R&M rose €38 m YoY to €218 m, supported by Galp's refining margin increase to \$7.4/boe, which reflected improved margins in the international market and gasoline exports to the USA. However, the R&M business was impacted by the depreciation of the Dollar against the Euro, by refining margin hedgings and by the time lag of pricing formulas.
  • RCA Ebitda for G&P business stood at €45 m, with the increased volumes sold to direct clients offsetting the lower volumes sold in the trading segment.
  • Group RCA Ebit amounted to €302 m, mainly following the Ebitda performance. It should be noted that amortisation and depreciation charges in the E&P business were impacted by the depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the Euro.
  • RCA net income was €166 m, up €51 m YoY, while IFRS net income increased to €163 m. The inventory effect corresponded to €11 m, and non-recurring events were €14 m, mainly related to the tax on the energy sector in Portugal.
  • Capex totalled €227 m during the quarter, of which 82% was allocated to development and production activities, namely to the development of block BM-S-11 in Brazil. It is also worth noting the start of the investment in the development of the Coral South project in Mozambique.
  • Post-dividend free cash flow was negative €37 m, considering the €208 m payment of the interim dividend related to the 2017 financial year.
  • Net debt on 30 September amounted to €1.5 billion (bn), considering the loan to Sinopec as cash, with an implied net debt to Ebitda RCA of 0.9x.
  • On October 27, Galp, through Petrogal Brasil, acquired a 20% interest in the Carcará North area in the 2nd Pre-Salt Production Sharing Bidding Round in Brazil. The consortium also comprises Statoil (operator) and ExxonMobil, with a stake of 40% each. The consortium offered a profit oil share of 67.12%. Additional commitments include the payment of a signature bonus of c.\$186 m net to Petrogal Brasil. Following the award, Petrogal Brasil has agreed with Statoil the acquisition of an additional 3% stake in BM-S-8, for a total consideration of c.\$114 m, including an upfront cash payment of c.\$71 m.

3.Market environment

Dated Brent

During the third quarter of 2017, the average price of dated Brent increased \$6.2/bbl YoY to \$52.1/bbl. This resulted from declining global inventories, driven mainly by a positive performance by the world economy and the compliance with the OPEC production limitation agreement.

During the first nine months of 2017, dated Brent averaged \$51.8/bbl, up \$10.0/bbl YoY.

During the third quarter of 2017, the average price spread between Urals and dated Brent narrowed from -\$2.1/bbl in the previous year, to -\$1.3/bbl. The relative valuation of the Urals crude was due to the lower availability of this Russian crude, and similar quality crudes produced by members of OPEC, due to the agreed production limits.

During the first nine months of 2017, the price spread narrowed, from -\$2.2/bbl YoY to -\$1.4/bbl.

Natural gas

The natural gas price in Europe (NBP) increased YoY from \$4.4/mmbtu to \$5.4/mmbtu during the third quarter of 2017, as a result of reduced inventories, as well as the definitive closure of the largest natural gas storage facility in the United Kingdom.

During the first nine months of 2017, NBP averaged \$5.4/mmbtu, an increase of \$1.1/mmbtu YoY.

The natural gas reference price in the USA (Henry Hub) remained stable YoY at \$3.0/mmbtu, with increased production in the USA compensated by the development of new liquefied natural gas (LNG) export projects.

During the first nine months of 2017, Henry Hub increased \$0.7/mmbtu YoY to \$3.1/mmbtu.

Refining margins

Benchmark refining margin went up YoY from \$2.3/bbl to \$5.5/bbl, as a result of stronger distillate margins, namely diesel and gasoline.

During the third quarter of 2017, the diesel crack stood at \$14.3/bbl, up \$4.2/bbl YoY, supported by demand and impacted by the stoppage of a large refinery in Europe.

The gasoline crack was \$13.7/bbl, up \$4.6/bbl YoY, supported by demand and by outages in several refineries in the Gulf of Mexico, due to hurricane Harvey.

During the first nine months of 2017, the benchmark refining margin was \$4.5/bbl, up \$1.6/bbl YoY, due to higher diesel and gasoline crack spreads, which increased \$2.6/bbl and \$1.6/bbl, respectively.

Iberian market

During the third quarter of 2017, the Iberian market for oil products totalled 16.4 million tonnes (mton), compared to 16.0 mton the previous year, impacted by higher demand for jet.

During the first nine months, the Iberian oil market rose from 46.5 mton YoY to 47.3 mton.

During the third quarter, the Iberian natural gas market increased 17.5% YoY to 8,387 mm³, supported by the 53.7% increase in the electrical segment consumption, due to lower hydroelectric power generation.

During the first nine months, the Iberian natural gas market increased 12.9% YoY to 25,754 mm³.

Operations

Third quarter

During the third quarter of 2017, the average working interest production of oil and natural gas was 94.6 kboepd, of which 88% was oil production.

Production increased 28% YoY due to the continuous development of the Lula and Iracema projects.

During the quarter, there were maintenance works in some units in Brazil, particularly planned outages in FPSO #4 and #5, in the Iracema North and Lula Alto areas, respectively, as well as the end of maintenance works in FPSO #1 in the Lula Pilot area.

Currently, a fleet of seven FPSOs is operating in Lula and Iracema, with six units producing close to full capacity and the seventh unit, which started operations in May, ramping-up.

Regarding the next unit to be allocated to Lula (FPSO #8), in the Lula North area, the topsides' integration works proceed in COOEC's shipyard, in China. Regarding the unit to develop the Lula Extreme South area (FPSO #9), integration works are ongoing in the Brasfels shipyard, in Brazil.

In Angola, WI production was 7.8 kbpd, down 21% YoY, due to the natural decline of the fields in block 14. In turn, net entitlement production decreased 23%, impacted by the cost recovery mechanism under the production sharing agreement.

In block 32, the two FPSO units to be allocated to the Kaombo area are being converted in Singapore, with the remaining development works ongoing.

The Group's total net entitlement production

increased 29% YoY to 92.4 kboepd, following the growth of production coming from Brazil.

Nine months

During the first nine months of 2017, working interest production was 90.8 kboepd, a 47%

Results

Third quarter

Ebitda RCA amounted to €215 m, up €88 m YoY, mainly on the back of increased production and higher sale prices of oil and natural gas, and despite the Dollar depreciation against the Euro. The Group's average sale price was \$45.3/boe in the period, up \$8.8/boe from the previous year.

Production costs increased €10 m YoY to €54 m, mainly due to the start of production of FPSO #7 in May 2017. In unit terms and on a net entitlement basis, production costs remained stable at \$7.5/boe.

Amortisation and depreciation charges (including abandonment provisions) increased €8 m YoY to €90 m, with the depreciation of the Brazilian Real partially offsetting the increased producing asset base in Brazil. On a net entitlement basis, depreciation charges decreased from \$13.8/boe to \$12.4/boe, supported by higher production dilution.

RCA Ebit was €125 m during the third quarter, up €80 m YoY. IFRS Ebit was also €125 m in the period.

Results of associated companies related to the E&P business were €13 m.

increase YoY, on the back of the ramp-up of Brazilian FPSOs #5 and #6, and the start of production of FPSO #7.

Net entitlement production increased 50% YoY to 88.9 kboepd.

Nine months

During the first nine months of 2017, Ebitda on a RCA basis amounted to €606 m, up €345 m YoY, benefiting from increased production and average sale price, which reached \$44.4/boe compared to \$33.9/boe the year before.

Production costs increased €54 m YoY to €179 m, due to the higher number of operating units in Brazil. In unit terms and on a net entitlement basis, production costs were \$8.2/boe.

Amortisation, depreciation charges and abandonment provisions amounted to €290 m, up €76 m YoY, reflecting production growth. On a net entitlement basis, unit depreciation charges were \$13.3/boe in the period, compared to \$14.7/boe the previous year.

The first nine months of 2017 were also impacted by the impairment during the second quarter of the year, related to an exploration write-off in Portugal, which amounted to €22 m.

RCA Ebit was €295 m, while IFRS Ebit totalled €293 m.

The contribution of associated companies related to the E&P activities was €29 m during the first nine months of 2017, following the contribution of the activities related with the Brazilian projects.

Operations

Third quarter

During the third quarter of 2017, 29.7 million barrels of raw materials (mmboe) were processed, in line with the same period of 2016, benefiting from the high availability of the refining system. Crude oil accounted for 93% of raw materials processed, of which 83% corresponded to medium and heavy crudes.

Middle distillates (diesel and jet) accounted for 47% of production, whereas gasoline corresponded to 22%. Consumption and losses accounted for 7% of raw materials processed.

Volumes sold to direct clients stood at 2.4 mton, 5% higher than in the previous year, benefiting from the economic recovery in Iberia. Volumes sold in Africa increased 10% YoY and accounted for 9% of total volumes sold to direct clients.

Nine months

Raw materials processed during the first nine months increased 6% YoY to 85.8 mmboe, as a result of planned outages at the Sines and Matosinhos units in 2016. Crude oil accounted for 90% of raw materials processed, of which 83% corresponded to medium and heavy crudes.

Middle distillates accounted for 47% of production, whereas gasoline corresponded to 22%. Consumption and losses accounted for 8% of raw materials processed.

Volumes sold to direct clients reached 6.7 mton, up 1% YoY, despite the lower exposure to low margin activities within Iberia. Volumes sold in Africa increased 15% and accounted for 9% of total volumes sold to direct clients.

Results

Third quarter

Ebitda RCA for the R&M business increased €38 m to €218 m, due to higher refining margins.

Galp's refining margin stood at \$7.4/boe, compared to \$3.4/boe during the previous year. The spread to benchmark margin was \$1.8/boe, as the Company benefited from gasoline exports to the United States, and high utilisation of the conversion units.

Refining cash costs stood at €41 m, or \$1.6/boe.

During the period, refining margin hedging operations had a negative impact on Ebitda of €17 m.

The oil products marketing business benefited from the economic environment in Iberia, mainly in the retail segment. On the other hand, the results were impacted by the increase in commodities prices during the period and the time lag in the pricing formulas applied to clients.

Depreciation charges and provisions totalled €85 m.

RCA Ebit went up to €134 m, while IFRS Ebit totalled €148 m. The inventory effect was €15 m.

Nine months

Ebitda RCA for the R&M business increased €167 m to €639 m, supported by the market environment and by the refineries' operational availability.

Galp's refining margin stood at \$6.1/boe, compared to \$4.0/boe during the previous year. The spread to benchmark margin was \$1.7/boe.

Refining cash costs stood at €127 m, in line YoY. In unit terms, cash costs were \$1.6/boe.

The oil products marketing business benefited from the economic upturn in Iberia, with an emphasis on the increased demand in the retail segment and in some wholesale sub-segments such as aviation.

Depreciation charges and provisions totalled €266 m, up €51 m YoY, based on a revision of the useful life of certain refining assets at the end of 2016.

RCA Ebit was €373 m, while IFRS Ebit increased to €394 m. The inventory effect was €28 m.

Trading volumes decreased 18% YoY to 652 mm3 , following lower volumes sold under structured LNG contracts.

This decrease was partially offset by a 12% increase in volumes sold to direct clients, mainly due to the performance in the industrial segment in Iberia.

Sales of electricity were 1,292 GWh, in line with the previous year.

Nine months

Sales of natural gas were 5,450 mm³, up 246 mm³ compared to the previous year, as a result of higher volumes sold to direct clients.

Volumes sold in the conventional segment (including industrial and retail) went up 14%, due to the industrial segment. Volumes sold in the electrical segment increased 266 mm3 to 1,069 mm3 .

Volumes sold in the trading segment decreased 12% to 2,184 mm³.

Sales of electricity were 3,812 GWh, a 94 GWh increase YoY, which had been impacted by an outage of the Matosinhos cogeneration last year.

Results

Third quarter

Ebitda RCA for the G&P business was down €27 m YoY to €45 m, mostly as a result of the full deconsolidation of the gas regulated infrastructure business, which had accounted for €26 m during the third quarter of 2016. Excluding this impact, G&P Ebitda RCA would have been stable.

Ebitda for the natural gas segment was €36 m, down €3 m YoY, following the lower contribution from the LNG trading activities.

Ebitda for the power business rose €2 m YoY to €10 m.

RCA Ebit was €36 m, while IFRS Ebit was €34 m.

Results from associated companies reached €25 m, up €10 m YoY, reflecting the inclusion of results from the 77.5% stake in Galp Gás Natural Distribuição (GGND) in this caption.

Nine months

RCA Ebitda was €113 m during the period, down €146 YoY, affected by lower results from the natural gas activity and also by the deconsolidation of GGND.

Ebitda for the natural gas segment decreased €72 m YoY to €87 m, due to the lower results in the LNG trading activities, and considering the negative sourcing impact during the first quarter of 2017.

Ebitda for the power business was €26 m, compared to €9 m during the same period of 2016, which had been impacted by the outage of the Matosinhos cogeneration and by the unfavourable lag of the natural gas purchase price and the sale price of energy produced.

RCA Ebit decreased €121 m YoY to €90 m. IFRS Ebit was €95 m, compared to €208 m the previous year.

Results from associated companies related to the G&P business reached €75 m, up €26 m YoY.

Third quarter

RCA Ebitda went up 27% YoY to €487 m, following a higher contribution from E&P and R&M, which more than offset the effect of the gas infrastructure business deconsolidation. IFRS Ebitda reached €500 m.

Considering the increase in amortisations and depreciation charges, RCA Ebit stood at €302 m. IFRS Ebit reached €314 m.

Results from associated companies increased to €40 m, following the deconsolidation of the regulated infrastructure business and a higher contribution from Tupi B.V., related to the E&P business.

Financial results were negative €15 m, in line with the previous year.

RCA taxes increased to €135 m, considering the growth of the Group's operating results.

Non-controlling interests increased €12 m to €25 m, due to the higher results attributable to Sinopec's stake in Galp's Brazilian subsidiary.

RCA net income totalled €166 m, while IFRS net income was €163 m. The inventory effect was €11 m and non-recurring €14 m, mainly related to the tax on the energy sector in Portugal.

Results third quarter 2017 October 30, 2017

Nine months

RCA Ebitda was €1,379 m, a 36% increase YoY, supported by the performance of E&P and R&M. IFRS Ebitda was €1,407 m.

RCA Ebit increased €242 m to €775 m and IFRS Ebit reached €799 m.

Results from associated companies increased €52 m to €113 m, on the back of the E&P and G&P associated vehicles contribution.

Financial results were negative €37 m, down €40 m YoY, mainly due to a €56 m change in the mark-to-market of refining hedging derivatives.

RCA taxes increased €177 m to €378 m, with taxes on oil and gas production reaching €170 m.

Non-controlling interests, mainly attributable to Sinopec's stake in Petrogal Brasil, reached €56 m.

RCA net income was €416 m, while IFRS net income was €397 m. The inventory effect was €30 m and non-recurring items accounted for €48 m.

CESE in Portugal had a negative impact on IFRS results of around €43 m, including €17 m related to CESE I, which annual impact is fully accounted for in the first quarter of the year. These provisions related to CESE result from the strict applicability of accounting standards. However, in Galp's opinion, based on the opinion of renowned national legal experts, the laws regarding CESE have no legal grounds and, accordingly, such amounts are not due.

8.Subsequent events

On October 27, Galp, through Petrogal Brasil, acquired a 20% interest the Carcará North area pursuant to the 2nd Production Sharing Bidding Round in Brazil. The consortium also comprises Statoil (operator) and ExxonMobil, with a stake of 40% each.

The consortium offered a profit oil share of 67.12%. Additional commitments include the payment of a signature bonus of c.\$930 m (gross), or c.\$186 m net to Petrogal Brasil, and the drilling of an exploration well.

In this context, Petrogal Brasil has agreed with Statoil the acquisition of an additional 3% stake in BM-S-8, for a total consideration of c.\$114 m, comprising an upfront cash payment of c.\$71 m and a cash payment contingent on certain conditions being met, which include the unitisation process between Carcará and Carcará North areas.

Pursuant to the two above-mentioned transactions, Petrogal Brasil's total exposure to the Carcará reservoir will consist of a 20% interest in Carcará North and a 17% interest in the BM-S-8 concession.

It was also agreed that Statoil will be the operator of the unitised areas, subject to the relevant authorities' approval.

These acquisitions reflect Galp's strategic interest in expanding its presence in core areas, such as the Brazilian pre-salt, from selected high-quality assets to be developed through strong partnerships.

9.Basis of presentation

Galp's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The financial information in the consolidated income statement is reported for the quarters ended on 30 September 2017 and 2016 and 30 June 2017. The consolidated financial position is reported on 30 September and 30 June 2017, and on 31 December 2016.

Galp's financial statements are prepared in accordance with IFRS, and the cost of goods sold is valued at weighted-average cost. When goods and commodity prices fluctuate, the use of this valuation method may cause volatility in results through gains or losses in inventories, which do not reflect the Company's operating performance. This is called the inventory effect.

Another factor that may affect the Company's results, without being an indicator of its true performance, is the set of non-recurring items, namely gains or losses on the disposal of assets, impairments or reinstatements of fixed assets, and environmental or restructuring charges.

For the purpose of evaluating Galp's operating performance, RCA profit measures exclude nonrecurring items and the inventory effect, the latter because the cost of goods sold and materials consumed has been calculated according to the Replacement Cost (RC) valuation method.

Recent changes

Effective on 1 January 2017, exploration expenses written-off in the E&P business are considered as recurring items.

Effective on 1 October 2016, the contribution of the trading activity of oil produced, which was previously accounted for in the R&M business, started to be accounted for in the E&P business.

During the fourth quarter of 2016, the useful life of certain refining assets was revised, contributing to an increase in depreciation and amortisation charges starting from the second half of 2016.

Replacement cost (RC)

According to this method of valuing inventories, the cost of goods sold is valued at the cost of replacement, i.e. at the average cost of raw materials on the month when sales materialise irrespective of inventories at the start or end of the period. The Replacement Cost Method is not accepted by the Portuguese IFRS and is consequently not adopted for valuing inventories. This method does not reflect the cost of replacing other assets.

Replacement cost adjusted (RCA)

In addition to using the replacement cost method, RCA items exclude non-recurrent events such as capital gains or losses on the disposal of assets, impairment or reinstatement of fixed assets and environmental or restructuring charges which may affect the analysis of the Company's profit and do not reflect its operational performance.

Important factors that may lead to significant differences between the actual results and the statements of expectations about future events or results include the Company's business strategy, industry developments, financial market conditions, uncertainty of the results of future projects and operations, plans, objectives, expectations and intentions, among others. Such risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors could cause the actual results of Galp or the industry to differ materially from those results expressed or implied in this report by such forward-looking statements.

Real future income, both financial and operating; an increase in demand and change to the energy mix; an increase in production and changes to Galp's portfolio; the amount and various costs of capital, future distributions; increased resources and recoveries; project plans, timing, costs and capacities; efficiency gains; cost reductions; integration benefits; ranges and sale of products; production rates; and the impact of technology can differ substantially due to a number of factors. These factors may include changes in oil or gas prices or other market conditions affecting the oil, gas, and petrochemical industries; reservoir performance; timely completion of development projects; war and other political or security disturbances; changes in law or government regulation, including environmental regulations and political sanctions; the outcome of commercial negotiations; the actions of competitors and customers; unexpected technological developments; general economic conditions, including the occurrence and duration of economic recessions; unforeseen technical difficulties; and other factors.
