Working interest (WI) production was up 21% YoY to 136.9 kboepd, supported by the ramp-up of FPSOs #8 and #9 located in Lula, the start-up of the unit allocated to the Berbigão/Sururu area during the period, as well as the increased contribution from the Kaombo project in block 32, in Angola.
▪ Capex totalled €282 m in the quarter, of which 65% allocated to the E&P business, mostly focused on BM-S-11 and Mozambique execution. Investments in downstream activities were mainly directed to energy efficiency improvements in the refining system, part of the "\$1/boe" initiatives.
Note: As of January 1, 2019, Galp adopted the IFRS 16 accounting standard. 2018 figures were not restated according to this accounting standard. For comparison purposes, the report also includes 2019 adjusted figures excluding the IFRS 16 impacts.

3 Includes unitisation impacts.
WI production increased 21% YoY to 136.9 kboepd, mainly driven by the continued development of the Lula and Iracema and Berbigão/Sururu projects, as well as the higher contribution from the Kaombo project, in Angola. Natural gas amounted to 11% of Galp's production.
In Brazil, production was higher YoY, benefiting from FPSO #8 performance, which produced at plateau levels after concluding its ramp-up process in just 10 months, and the ongoing ramp-up of FPSO #9, which started operations on February 2019. No relevant maintenance activities were performed during the quarter.
FPSO #10, located in the Berbigão/Sururu area, initiated operations in November 2019 and is currently in its ramp-up phase.
In Angola, WI production increased 4.9 kbpd YoY to 15.1 kbpd, supported by the Kaombo project in block 32, namely with the ramp-up of the Kaombo South FPSO, which reached plateau production in December 2019, nine months after its start.
Group's net entitlement production increased YoY to 135.1 kboepd.
RCA Ebitda was €500 m, up 47% YoY, mainly supported by the higher production, which more than offset the lower oil prices environment in the period.
Production costs were €31 m, now excluding the €34 m costs related with operating leases following the IFRS 16 application. In unit terms, and on a net entitlement basis, production costs were \$2.7/boe. Excluding IFRS 16 effects, production costs decreased YoY to \$5.8/boe, reflecting a higher production dilution from the projects' ramp-up in Brazil and Angola.
Amortisation and depreciation charges (including abandonment provisions) increased €72 m YoY to €168 m, reflecting the higher operating asset base, both in Brazil and Angola, as well as a €22 m impact from IFRS 16. On a net entitlement basis, DD&A was \$15.2/boe, or \$13.1/boe on a comparable YoY basis.
Average WI production during 2019 was 121.8 kboepd, 14% higher YoY, mainly supported by the continued ramp-up of the Lula project in Brazil, and block 32 in Angola. The strong execution led the WI production to stand above the 8-12% expected increase.
RCA Ebitda was €1,751 m, up 22% YoY, driven by higher production, a stronger U.S. Dollar against the Euro and the application of IFRS 16, more than offsetting lower Brent prices.
Production costs were €139 m, excluding costs related with operating leases of €135 m. In unit terms, and on a net entitlement basis, production costs were \$3.6/boe, or \$7.0/boe on a pre-IFRS 16 basis.
Amortisation and depreciation charges (including abandonment provisions) amounted to €561 m, an increase of €214 m YoY, impacted by the increased asset base and IFRS 16 effects of €90 m. On a net entitlement basis, DD&A was \$14.4/boe, (or \$12.1/boe on a comparable YoY basis).
During the year, the ANP (Brazilian National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels) approved the Unitisation Agreements (UA) related with the accumulations of Lula, Atapu and Sépia.
The Lula accumulation extends outside the BM-S-11 licence towards the adjacent areas of South of Tupi, a Transfer of Rights area, and to an open area. The agreement, effective from April 1, 2019, establishes that the licence represents 92.09% of the unitised area (BM-S-11 consortium + Transfer of Rights area + Open area), with Galp now holding a 9.209% interest, though its 10% stake in BM-S-11.
The Atapu accumulation extends towards the BM-S-11A licence. The agreement, effective from September 1, 2019, establishes that the licence represents 17.03% of the unitised area (BM-S-11A + ToR + Open Area), with Galp now holding a 1.703% interest through its 10% stake in BM-S-11A. It should be highlighted that the BM-S-11A licence holds two additional accumulations, Berbigão and Sururu, which are still subject to unitisation processes. These agreements have been submitted to ANP in 2018 and are pending approval from the regulator.
The Sépia discovery extends towards the Sépia East area, within the BM-S-24 licence. The agreement, effective from September 1, 2019, establishes that the licence represents 12.07% of the unitised area (BM-S-24 + ToR), with Galp now holding a 2.414% interest through its 20% stake in BM-S-24. Block BM-S-24 also holds the large Júpiter discovery, which is a separate accumulation and therefore not included in this agreement.
Unitisation processes require equalisations among the parties, based on past capital expenditures carried by partners for their original interest and the net profits received thereunder. These equalisations should therefore lead to reimbursements among partners as per the terms and conditions agreed between themselves.
Galp recognised in its financial statements the best estimate for the impacts on its Brazilian subsidiary from the stake dilution in these accumulations.
On Lula, during the year Galp recognised a negative €96 m non-recurring item in net income and a €132 m decrease in the other assets/liabilities caption resulting from the past income and net investments from the BM-S-11 consortium and the Transfer of Rights area. Additional amounts related with associated companies are still to be recognised. Total net equalisation payable position is estimated at c.€100 m.
Atapu's unitisation agreement impact has yet to be recognised on Galp's financial statements considering that the impact to Galp from this process is mostly concentrated in associated companies and therefore dependent on certain legal and regulatory procedures. Nevertheless, the amounts related with associated companies are estimated to originate a net equalisation receivable position of c.€165 m.
Regarding Sépia, impacts include a negative €4 m non-recurring item in net income and increased investments of €17 m, contributing to an estimated net equalisation payable position of €26 m.
Considering the already approved unitisation agreements of Lula, Atapu and Sépia, as well as the remaining ongoing processes mentioned, Galp expects a to be in a net receivable position of c.€100 m.

1 Impact on Ebitda.
Raw materials processed in Galp's refining system were 26.5 mmboe during the quarter, 38% higher YoY, as the fourth quarter of 2018 performance was impacted by planned maintenance activities in both Sines and Matosinhos refineries. Crude oil accounted for 92% of raw materials processed, of which 90% corresponded to medium and heavy crudes.
Middle distillates (diesel and jet) accounted for 47% of production and gasoline for 23%. Fuel oil production accounted for 16%, of which low and very low sulphur fuel oil accounted for c.80%, reflecting a shift to lower sulphur fuel oil supply from November ahead of IMO regulation implementation. Consumption and losses accounted for 8% of raw materials processed.
Total product sales increased 18% YoY, mainly benefiting from higher exports. Volumes sold to direct clients declined 5% YoY to 2.0 mton.
RCA Ebitda for the R&M business was €99 m, considering the application of IFRS 16 (positive impact of €14 m in Ebitda). Results reflected a lower performance YoY of the refining activity impacted by the weaker refining margins environment, despite the higher availability of the system and robust performance from the marketing activity.
Galp's refining margin was down YoY to \$3.3/boe, considering a sub-optimal utilisation in October after maintenance, impacted by the deterioration of products' cracks, namely light and middle distillates, and with the raw materials spreads not absorbing the impact from the lower product cracks.
Refining costs were €89 m or \$3.7/boe in unit terms, still considering costs related with maintenance activities performed during the third quarter of 2019. Refining margin hedging had a positive impact on Ebitda of €6 m during the quarter.
The marketing activity maintained a robust contribution, despite the lower volumes sold to direct clients.
RCA Ebit was negative by €26 m, impacted by impairments related with industrial projects and decommissioning provisions related with the marketing activity. IFRS Ebit was negative by €29 m.
Raw materials processed were 96.0 mmboe during the period, 5% lower YoY due to the planned maintenance works and operational restrictions in the refining system during the year. Crude oil accounted for 86% of raw materials processed, of which 87% corresponded to medium and heavy crudes.
Middle distillates (diesel and jet) accounted for 46% of production, gasoline for 23% and fuel oil for 16%. Consumption and losses accounted for 8% of raw materials processed.
Total product sales decreased 3% YoY, impacted by lower exports volumes considering the refining system restrictions. Volumes sold to direct clients increased 1% YoY to 8.7 mton driven by the positive demand evolution in Iberia.
RCA Ebitda for the R&M business was €415 m, considering the application of IFRS 16 (positive €51 m impact on Ebitda), down YoY impacted by the lower contribution from the refining activity.
Galp's refining margin decreased YoY to \$3.1/boe, reflecting a volatile international environment, as well as operational restrictions in the refining system during the period, namely in Q1 and Q3.
Refining costs increased YoY to €247 m, or \$2.9/boe in unit terms, given maintenance expenditures.
The oil products marketing activity maintained a robust contribution from sales to direct clients, benefiting from the improvement YoY of the Iberian oil market.
RCA Ebit was €8 m, while IFRS Ebit was €55 m, with a negative inventory effect of €19 m and negative nonrecurring items of €26 m related to the business unit's restructuring and decommissioning provisions.

Total volumes of NG/LNG sold reached 1,992 mm³, 16% up YoY, following an increase in network trading sales. Sales to direct clients were 1,224 mm³, up 44 mm3YoY, supported by a stronger performance from the industrial segment in Iberia.
Sales of electricity to direct clients were 808 GWh, down 8% YoY, due to lower volumes sold to B2B clients.
Sales of electricity to the grid were up 30% YoY to 354 GWh, as the cogenerations' operations were impacted by maintenance activities during the same period of 2018.
RCA Ebitda reached €48 m, up 91% YoY supported by a stronger network trading activity, as well as a better performance from the commercial activity.
RCA Ebitda for the Power generation activity was stable at €9 m.
RCA and IFRS Ebit stood at €43 m and €45 m, respectively.
Results from associated companies were €20 m, related to the equity interest in Galp Gás Natural Distribuição, S.A. (GGND) and in the international pipelines.
Sales of NG/LNG were 7,646 mm3 , slightly up YoY, with the increase in network trading offsetting a decline in the LNG trading activity. Sales to direct clients were slightly down YoY, with a decrease in electrical sales offsetting a better performance from the industrial segment in Iberia.

Includes SPT payable in Brazil and IRP payable in Angola.
RCA Ebitda increased 32% YoY to €653 m, considering the €48 m positive effect from IFRS 16. The increase was mainly driven by a stronger performance YoY from E&P, driven by the production ramp-up, and a resilient contribution from the commercial activities. IFRS Ebitda was €650 m.
RCA Ebit was up YoY to €354 m, considering a €14 m impact in depreciation charges from the application of IFRS 16 and higher DD&A, namely in the upstream segment. IFRS Ebit was €353 m.
During the quarter, financial results were positive at €43 m, considering €22 m in interest charges related to operating leases (IFRS 16). Mark-to-market variations, mostly related with derivatives to cover natural gas price risks amounted to €66 m, and exchange gains, reflecting the effect of the Brazilian Real appreciation versus U.S. Dollar on the IFRS 16 lease liabilities reached €24 m.
RCA taxes increased from €132 m to €215 m, following the higher operating results, namely from the upstream.
Non-controlling interests of €46 m, mainly attributable to Sinopec's stake in Petrogal Brasil, were up YoY reflecting the stronger performance from this activity.
RCA net income was €157 m, while IFRS net income was €106 m, with non-recurring items of -€49 m, which include the impact from SPT adjustments from previous periods, and an inventory effect of -€2 m.
RCA Ebitda was €2,381 m, up 7% YoY, considering the positive impact from IFRS 16. Excluding such effect, RCA Ebitda would have been 1% down, reflecting the lower contribution from refining.
RCA Ebit was €1,387 m, down YoY, impacted by higher DD&A, given the increased asset base in the upstream, and impacted by depreciation charges from the application of IFRS 16. IFRS Ebit was €1,232 m.
Financial results were -€54 m, impacted by the €90 m interest expenses related with operational leases under IFRS 16. Otherwise, financial results were strong, reflecting the positive mark-to-market variations, mostly related with derivatives to cover natural gas price risks, exchange gains and lower net interests. Excluding the IFRS 16 effect, financial results would have been positive by €63 m.
RCA taxes increased YoY to €758 m, reflecting the stronger results, namely in the upstream.
Non-controlling interests of €150 m were mainly attributable to Sinopec's 30% stake in Petrogal Brasil.
RCA net income was €560 m and IFRS net income reached €389 m. Non-recurring items, which amounted to €177 m, include the impact from the unitisation of the Lula and Sépia fields, as well as c.€50 m related to CESE and SPT adjustments from previous periods.
The provision related to CESE results from the strict applicability of accounting standards. However, in Galp's opinion, based on the opinion of renowned legal experts, the laws regarding CESE have no legal grounds and, accordingly, such amounts are not due.

Capex totalled €282 m during the quarter, of which 65% allocated to the E&P business.
Investment in development and production activities reached €188 m and were mostly related with the execution of Lula and Bacalhau (ex-Carcará) projects in Brazil, as well as with the Mozambican projects Coral FLNG and Rovuma LNG.
Investments in downstream activities were mainly directed to energy efficiency improvements in the refining system, part of the "\$1/boe" initiatives, and maintenance works.
During 2019, capex reached €856 m. E&P accounted for 70% of total capex, with development and production activities accounting for 81% of the total investments in the upstream. E&A capex was mainly related with works in the Bacalhau area and the acquisition of the final 3% stake in BM-S-8 in Brazil.
Investments in the downstream were mainly focused on the improvement of refining energy efficiency as well as to the renewal of the retail network.

CFFO was up YoY to €446 m, considering the €48 m positive effect from IFRS 16, and benefiting from the higher contribution from the upstream business, which offset a lower downstream contribution.
FCF was €229 m, considering a net capex of €170 m. Cash flow after the payment of dividends to noncontrolling interests stood at €204 m.
CFFO of c.€1.9 bn, up 19% YoY, considering the €189 m positive impact from IFRS 16, of which 72% generated outside Iberia. Excluding this effect, CFFO would have increased 7% YoY, with an increased contribution from the upstream as well as from the downstream activities, despite the weak refining environment.
2019 FCF reached €922 m, up 45% YoY, or €232 m considering the full year dividend to shareholders of €559 m, and non-controlling interest payments of €132 m, mainly to Sinopec.

1 For the periods ending in 30 September 2019 and 31 December 2019, net fixed assets and other assets/liabilities include the estimated impact from unitisations.
On December 31, 2019, net fixed assets were €7,358 m, up €18 m YoY. Work-in-progress, mainly related to the E&P business, stood at €1,927 m.
Other liabilities increased €282 m QoQ, following an increase in CESE provisions, abandonment provisions due to the Brazilian Real appreciation, and impacted by the reversal of deferred SPT credits, both within the upstream business. On a YoY basis, it should be noted that this caption also includes a €155 m estimated payable related to the estimated impact from unitisations, while the receivable amount is still to be booked according to the ongoing unitisation process (see 'Other E&P highlights' on page 9).
ROACE was 7.3% at the end of the year. Excluding impacts from adjustments related to previous periods, namely unitisation processes, ROACE would have reached 9.7%.

1 Includes €50.4 m in inventories made on behalf of third parties as of 31 December 2019. ## 6. Basis of reporting
Galp's consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IFRS. The financial information in the consolidated income statement and in the consolidated financial position is reported for the quarters ended on December 31, 2019 and 2018, and September 30, 2019.
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 material items considering the Group's activities.
For the purpose of evaluating Galp's operating performance, RCA profitability 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.
With regards to risks and uncertainties, please read chapter 7. Part I – C. III Internal control and risk management of Galp's Integrated Report 2018.
Galp started adopting IFRS 16 as of January 1, 2019. Under this accounting standard, most lease agreements were recognised in the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a financial liability. Subsequently, the rightof-use asset is depreciated through the shortest of its economic useful life or the lease agreement maturity. The financial liability considers interest based on the agreement's effective interest rate or the contracting entity's incremental borrowing rate. Lease payments are reflected as a reduction of lease liabilities.
The adoption of IFRS 16 does not materially impact the Company's cash generation.
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 of 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 IFRS and is consequently not adopted for valuing inventories. This method does not reflect the cost of replacing other assets.
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, extraordinary taxes, 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.

This report has been prepared by Galp Energia SGPS, S.A. ("Galp" or the "Company") and may be amended and supplemented.
This report does not constitute or form part of and should not be construed as, an offer to sell or issue or the solicitation of an offer to buy or otherwise acquire securities of the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates in any jurisdiction or an inducement to enter into investment activity in any jurisdiction. Neither this report nor any part thereof, nor the fact of its distribution, shall form the basis of, or be relied on in connection with, any contract or commitment or investment decision whatsoever in any jurisdiction.
This report may include forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are statements other than in respect of historical facts. The words "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "intends", "estimate", "will", "may", "continue", "should" and similar expressions usually identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements may include statements regarding: objectives, goals, strategies, outlook and growth prospects; future plans, events or performance and potential for future growth; liquidity, capital resources and capital expenditures; economic outlook and industry trends; energy demand and supply; developments of Galp's markets; the impact of regulatory initiatives; and the strength of Galp's competitors.
The forward-looking statements in this report are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company's records and other data available from third parties. Although Galp believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, these assumptions are inherently subject to significant known and unknown risks, uncertainties, contingencies and other important factors which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond its control. No assurance, however, can be given that such expectations will prove to have been correct. 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.
The information, opinions and forward-looking statements contained in this report speak only as at the date of this report, and are subject to change without notice. Galp and its respective representatives, agents, employees or advisors do not intend to, and expressly disclaim any duty, undertaking or obligation to, make or disseminate any supplement, amendment, update or revision to any of the information, opinions or forward-looking statements contained in this report to reflect any change in events, conditions or circumstances.
