Public Joint Stock Company "Oil Company "LUKOIL" Summary of 2015 performance results and main objectives for 2016

In 2015, despite the unfavorable macroeconomic conditions and economic sanctions, activities of PJSC "LUKOIL" (hereinafter also the Company) were focused on increasing the market capitalization, maintaining return on invested capital at the competitive level, increasing shareholder return and optimizing the Company's activities given the new fiscal conditions, which was ensured through high production efficiency and meeting the deadlines for implementing key investment projects. The steps taken will make it possible to enhance shareholder return thanks to growth of dividends to RUB177 per share1 (+15% versus 2014). The dividend yield may reach 6.9%2 .

Exploration work and reserves of oil and gas

2015 saw a landmark event: LUKOIL Group (hereinafter also the Group) obtained its first license in the Eastern Siberia, the subsoil license for the Eastern Taymyr. This enabled the Group to expand its hydrocarbon resources potentially opening up prospects for oil&gas production in the new Eastern Siberia region, if the exploration works prove to be successful.

In 2015, 18 fields (with the D41, D33, D6 South, the Baltic Sea shelf area, being the biggest ones) and 54 deposits were discovered by the Group. The success rate of the Group's exploration drilling reached 85% in 2015.

The Group is one of the leaders both in Russia and worldwide in terms of proven hydrocarbon reserves. The proven reserve life is 19 years.

LUKOIL group possesses a well-diversified portfolio of assets both in Russia and abroad. The Western Siberia and the Bolshekhetskaya Depression account for more than half of the Company's proven reserves, while the share of international projects is 12%. 59% of all the proven reserves are classified as drilled with oil reserves accounting for 66% and gas reserves for 34%. Such a reserve structure clearly indicates a high potential of expanding production by the Group in the mid-run, especially the gas production.

Having significant contingent resources (13.9 bln BOE) at its disposal, the Group is actively conducting exploration works using innovation technologies to speed up the conversion of resources into reserves as the time for their development is coming up. Increase in contingent resources by 1.9 bln BOE from 2014 was made possible by successful exploration works in the Baltic Sea shelf, the Western Siberia and the Komi Republic, as well as by the conversion of a portion of reserves into contingent resources.

The majority of the Group's proven reserves are conventional with only 4.7% of such reserves (3.4% of 3P reserves) being high-viscosity oil reserves and 5.5% (7.5% of 3P reserves) offshore reserves. This kind of structure helps the Group monitor its development costs effectively and promptly put new fields into operation.

Having ample resources, the Group is doing its best to take advantage of them and convert into proven resources for further development. Exploration works and discoveries made as a result, as well as production drilling, contributed to expanding proven reserves by 546m BOE. The biggest part of the growth was ensured by active development of the West

2 The dividend yield for 2015 is calculated based on the dividends recommended by the Board of Directors for payment based on the 2015 performance results equal to RUB177 per share and the average market price of the Company's ordinary share at the MICEX for the relevant period.

Qurna-2 field. At the same time the disposal of a 50% share in Caspian Investment Resources Ltd. deprived the Group of 49m BOE in overseas reserves.

Oil and gas production

In 2015, the oil production went up 3.6% reaching a record 100.7m t (736m barrels). Hydrocarbon production began at 14 new fields. The average yield of oil wells in the projects where the Group participates rose 3.7% making up 103 barrels/day (14.1 t/day).

The following works aimed at developing the Group's key projects were completed as planned: development of the Bolshekhetskaya Depression deposits and the Imilorsko-Istochny license area in the Western Siberia; development of the Denisovskaya Depression license area and the Yaregskoye field; facilities construction at the Filanovsky field in the Caspian; meeting the annual production targets set for the West Qurna-2 field in Iraq. Production at the Kuvachi-Alat field was launched in Uzbekistan as part of the Kandym early gas project.

In 2015, the Group's production of marketable gas (after own consumption, injection in the formation and transport losses) reached 20.3 bln m3 (119.2m BOE), a 1.4% increase compared to 2014. It was the Kandym early gas project that contributed most to the increase in marketable gas production (the Severnye Shady area and the Kuvachi-Alat field put into operation).

Oil refining

In 2015, the Company put into operation key assets as part of a large-scale refining investment project, including a facility for refining bottom products using the delayed coking method at the Perm Refinery; the second catalyst cracker and vacuum tar fractionation facility VT-2 at the Nizhny Novgorod Refinery; an atmospheric-vacuum pipe still unit at the Volgograd Refinery and a heavy still bottoms conversion complex at the Burgas refinery. Thanks to the ongoing modernization, the Group's output of light petroleum products reached 62.6%, while the production of fuel oil shrank by 10.5% across the Group and by 19% at the Russian refineries. High-octane gasoline now accounts for 100% in the total production of automotive gasoline in Russia.

Given the current market conditions against the backdrop of the "tax maneuver", margins of the oil product market redistributed from the wholesale channel to the retail one. This resulted in the Russian refineries utilization rate going down from 99% to 84% yoy. The refining volumes in Russia decreased by 7.6% to 41.9m t, while the refining volumes at the Group's overseas refineries went up 6.4% in 2015 totaling 22.6m t, which reflects 71% growth (yoy) in refining margins in Europe.

In the reporting year, the Company continued active development of the premium segments of its business channeling its efforts into the development of a promising line of oils, particularly marine oils. The Group is the leader in the Russian lubricant market with a 17% market share. In 2015, its share in the international marine oil market rose to 9.5% from 5% (2014). Steps were also taken to increase sales of aircraft fuel for into-plane fueling.

Power supply

In 2015, the Company completed the program under Capacity Supply Agreements. Over the five years, facilities with a total capacity of 949 MW were put into operation, which is 59 MW more than what the Company was obliged to provide under the agreements. The facilities included CCGT-410 at the Krasnodar heat power station, CCGT-110, CCGT-235 in Astrakhan and CCGT-135 in Stavrolen. Thus the Company fulfilled all its obligations to the state fully and in a timely manner.

The total output of electrical power in 2015 was 17.8 billion kWh. The total output of thermal power reached 12.8m GCal. The volume of thermal and electrical power produced was determined based on the conditions in the power generation market.

Sale of oil and gas

The aggregate amount of oil sold by the Company in 2015, including that refined at its own refineries, reached 143m t. Given higher profitability of oil exports compared to most domestic supplies, significant volumes of oil supplies were redirected from less profitable domestic channels to export markets. Although the export margins were lower in 2014 than the domestic market margins, the "tax maneuver" introduced in the oil sector in 2015 was a game changer.

Due to the redistribution of oil supplies, the export volumes went up 14.8% reaching 34.2m t in 2015. The share of exports outside the Customs Union rose from 87% to 89% with the utilization rate of the Company's own transport infrastructure increasing due to growth in production in the Komi Republic.

2015 saw increase in the amount of oil transported through the East Siberia–Pacific Ocean system and Kozmino Port. The amount of oil shipped so made up 1.5m t. This route enables to ensure sales of light crude maintaining its quality and with greater efficiency than traditional exports to the West. Tapping the Asia-Pacific Region market is in line with the Company's strategy to diversify its distribution.

Sale of oil products

Exports of oil products decreased by 12.5 % to 20.4m t in 2015, which was driven mainly by reduction in refining volumes and lower margins against the backdrop of the tax maneuver in the Russian oil sector. The commissioning of large secondary plants in 2015 resulted in exports of light oil products going up and dark oil products going vice versa down.

The daily average sales per petrol station in Russia amounted to 12.6 t/day shrinking 4.5% due to reduction in consumer demand driven by the unfavorable economic conditions.

The sales of non-fuel goods rose by 25%. Following 2015, 6.5m t of oil products (+19% versus 2014) worth more than RUB279 bln were sold in Russia through the LICARD system using fuel cards (non-cash settlements for legal entities) and Customer loyalty Program cards (private individuals). The total number of cards circulating in Russia reached about 7.9m, 16% more than in 2014, which was driven by customer loyalty cards introduced as part of a joint project with PJSC Rosgosstrakh.

Corporate social responsibility

Among private Russian oil and gas companies, PJSC "LUKOIL" is the only operator of offshore deposits, where strict compliance with the zero-emission principle ensures the preservation of the natural environment.

In 2015, the Company focused its attention on issues of health, safety and the environment in its regions of presence.

The key impacts on the environment were mitigated, including the reduction in air emissions by 17.7%, discharge of waste water by 5.9%, the area of polluted lands by 36.7%. The number of incidents resulting in environmental impacts went down. The percentage of annual pipeline replacements in the total length of pipelines was 2.4% with the average Russian ratio of about 2%.

As part of the APG Sustainable Use Program, 25 facilities were commissioned in the Caspian, Komi Republic, Perm and the Western Siberia in 2015. Reconstruction works were conducted at the Usinsky GPP.

In 2015, the second audit review was conducted competing the 2013–2015 certification cycle aimed at confirming the compliance of LUKOIL Group organizations with the requirements of ISO 14001 and OHSAS 18001 standards. This helped mitigate the risk of emergencies in the Group.

The vertical integration of process management and staff optimization drove growth in the efficiency indicators. Thus revenues per employee rise 8.5% to RUB54.1m.

Over the last years, there is a stable trend of decrease in the number of casualties. The growth of the number of casualties in 2015 was, inter alia, due to reasons beyond the Group's control (air crash).

The Company actively supports socially important projects in the regions of its operations annually stepping up investment in sponsor and charitable activities. Thus, 2015 saw 20.5% growth in this area due to increase in sports investments (almost threefold), providing support to the Far North peoples and preserving the cultural and historical heritage.

Corporate governance

The effective corporate governance system helps decrease the weighted average value of capital and investment risks of the Company contributing to its investment appeal and thereby growth of its shareholder value. One of PJSC "LUKOIL" priorities in this area is the protection of minority shareholders' rights.

Being a company incorporated in Russia, LUKOIL conducts its operations, inter alia, in accordance with the Corporate Governance Code recommended for use by the Bank of Russia pursuant to Letter No. 06-52/2463 dated 10.04.2014.

Since its establishment, the Company has been gradually increasing the amount of dividends per share maintaining leading positions in terms of dividend yield in the sector. Based on the 2015 results, despite the decrease in oil prices and weakened financial performance, the Board of Directors recommended to raise the dividends by 15% to RUB177 per share in line with best industry practices. The dividend yield may reach 6.9%, which is more than the average offered by peers.

In the reporting year, the following measures were taken to enhance information transparency and ensure that the shareholders' rights are respected:

  • conferences, the Investor's Day, one-on-one meetings, the offsite AGM (Volgograd) organized;
  • letters and requests, including those received by e-mail or telephone by the Investor Relations Department, processed;
  • regular reports of the Company published.

Stock market

During 2015, decrease in oil prices, ongoing geopolitical tensions and economic downturn put a pressure on the Russian stock indices. The average price for Urals-grade oil went down 47% in 2015, which resulted in the devaluation of the Russian rouble against the USD dollar by 23% for the same period. Therefore the RTS Index calculated in the USD dollars shrank 4.3%, while the MICEX rouble index rose 26.1%. This kind of performance may be explained by weaker rouble.

The Company's shares trading on the MICEX increased 5.4% to RUB2,354.9 per share, while the shares trading on the LSE went down 19.1% to USD32.2 per depository receipt.

Main objectives for 2016

The Company's strategy consists in seeking to increase the long-term shareholder value and shareholder return. The Company is completing a large-scale investment program establishing new efficient growth areas for steady development in the future. Investments in new projects are aimed at reinforcing the raw materials base, and at modernizing refining capacities to improve efficiency.

The key priority areas of PJSC "LUKOIL" for 2016 include:

  • ensuring smooth operations and financial stability of the Company in the unfavorable macroeconomic conditions through strict investment discipline, energy and labor efficiency improvement;

  • remaining competitive in the international and domestic markets in terms of the key performance indicators;

  • ensuring growth and competitiveness of dividend payments given inflation and devaluation changes;

  • raising accountability of management and professionals of all the grades, and providing incentives to them, for meeting the targets and key strategic goals.
