Gerhard Roiss, CEO of OMV:
"2013 was a pivotal year for OMV, a year in which we made substantial progress in shaping the company from an integrated, predominantly downstream organization to an integrated but strongly upstream-focused company. Despite challenges in Libya and Yemen, historically low refining margins and depressed spot prices in the gas sector, we have laid the foundations for a strong profitable future. The USD 2.65 bn acquisition of upstream assets from Statoil will play a key part in delivering our strategy; this acquisition was largely funded by our successful efforts to reduce working capital and leaves balance sheet gearing at the end of the year at 30%, consistent with our long-term target. Furthermore, we strengthened the exploration portfolio by acquiring interests in Madagascar and Gabon and made promising discoveries in Norway, Pakistan and Libya. In downstream, we renegotiated our long-term gas supply contract with Statoil, reached an interim agreement with Gazprom and made substantial progress in our divestment program by signing the sale of OMV's 45% stake in the Bayernoil refinery network. We have now built the portfolio to successfully deliver our 2016 targets, enabling us to grow our long-term profitability as the projects within the portfolio are delivered."

Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. fourth quarter 2012 (Q4/12)
Q4/13 results burdened by lower sales volumes
Production decreased mainly due to security issues in Libya
Newly acquired asset Gullfaks in the North Sea, Norway, already contributing to production
The Brent price in USD was 1% below the Q4/12 level. The Group's average realized crude price, however, increased by 1% compared to Q4/12, since in Q4/12 a negative hedging result of EUR (37) mn was recorded. For the year 2013, no strategic oil price hedges were entered into. The OMV Group's average realized gas price in EUR was 19% above the level of Q4/12.
Clean EBIT decreased significantly by 63% to EUR 257 mn, mainly due to lower sales volumes in Libya and New Zealand. The weaker USD against the EUR had a negative effect on the results. Exploration expenses came in 82% above the same quarter of the previous year (EUR 221 mn vs. EUR 122 mn in Q4/12) due to the write-off of two exploration licenses in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (Rovi and Sarta) and two exploration wells in Norway (Bonna and Wisting Alternative), coupled with seismic acquisition related to the Wisting area. Net special charges of EUR (47) mn, mainly due to impairment of assets in Tunisia, led to a reported EBIT of EUR 209 mn, 73% below the level of Q4/12 (EUR 782 mn).
Production costs excluding royalties (OPEX) in USD/boe were 24% higher than in Q4/12 mainly due to the change in country mix, with lower production volumes in Libya, the UK and New Zealand and the contribution from Gullfaks, Norway. OPEX in USD/boe at Petrom increased by 13% due to negative FX effects, reassessment of the retirement benefit provision and higher service costs. OMV Group's total exploration expenditure increased by 22% compared to Q4/12 to EUR 193 mn mainly as a consequence of higher activity levels in Norway, New Zealand and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq.
Total OMV daily production of oil, NGL and gas was 8% below Q4/12 at 277 kboe/d despite the additional volume contribution from the newly acquired asset Gullfaks in the North Sea, Norway. Petrom's total daily oil and gas production decreased by 1% compared to Q4/12. Total OMV daily oil and NGL production decreased by 13%, mainly reflecting lower volumes from Libya, affected by security issues, lower contributions from the UK due to sold assets in the North Sea and as a consequence of the Maari field in New Zealand being shut-in for refurbishment works. Production volumes from Norway partially mitigated this development. Total OMV daily gas production was down 3% vs. Q4/12 mainly due to lower contributions from a key producing well in Austria affected by water influx. Total sales quantity decreased by 14% mainly due to lower sales volumes in Libya, New Zealand and Yemen.
Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. third quarter 2013 (Q3/13)
Clean EBIT decreased by 56%, mainly due to significantly higher exploration expenses and lower sales quantities in Libya and New Zealand. USD weakness against the EUR, as well as lower oil prices, had a negative effect on the Q4/13 results. Exploration expenses were almost twofold higher compared to the previous quarter (EUR 79 mn in Q3/13), influenced by the write-offs in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and Norway and the seismic acquisition related to the Wisting area in Norway. Additional, special charges related to the impairment of assets in Tunisia led to a reported EBIT 60% below the Q3/13 level. Total daily production increased by 1%. Daily oil and NGL production was down by 3% negatively impacted by security issues in Libya partly compensated by volumes from the Gullfaks asset in the North Sea. Daily gas production increased by 4% mainly due to additional volumes contributing from Gullfaks and higher production in Pakistan. Overall sales volumes
were 4% below the level of Q3/13, as a result of lower liftings in Libya and New Zealand and also oil liftings from Norway slipping into January 2014.
January to December 2013 vs. January to December 2012
The Brent price in USD decreased by 3% compared to the 2012 level. The Group's average realized crude price in USD/bbl increased by 1% to USD 100.84/bbl mainly reflecting a negative hedging result of EUR (174) mn in 2012, while no strategic oil price hedges were entered into for the year 2013. The Group's average realized gas price in EUR increased by 10% compared to the 2012 level.
Clean EBIT came in 26% lower than in 2012 at EUR 2,086 mn, mainly due to significantly lower sales volumes in Libya. Exploration expenses increased by 5% to EUR 513 mn in 2013 mainly driven by licenses acquisition in Norway, write-offs in connection with the relinquishment of some exploration blocks and higher drilling exploration expenses in Romania. Net special charges of EUR (96) mn in 2013 were related to impairment of assets in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and in Tunisia and led to a reported EBIT of EUR 1,990 mn, 27% below the level of 2012.
Production costs excluding royalties in USD/boe (OPEX) increased by 9% compared to 2012, mainly reflecting lower volumes from Libya and the UK, due to sold assets in the North Sea. At Petrom, OPEX was at a similar level as in 2012. Exploration expenditure increased by 32% in 2013, mainly driven by higher activity levels in Norway, New Zealand and the Kurdistan Region of Iraq. Total OMV daily production of oil, NGL and gas decreased by 5% compared to the level of 2012, mainly due to lower volumes from Libya and the UK (due to sold assets in the North Sea) as well as lower contributions from Austria. In Romania, daily production of oil, NGL and gas increased for the first time since privatization in 2004, to 171.4 kboe/d from 170.5 kboe/d in 2012. Total OMV daily oil and NGL production was down by 7%, mainly reflecting lower production levels in Libya and the UK. Total OMV daily gas production decreased by 3% vs. 2012, as the decline in Pakistan and the UK was not compensated by production increases in Romania and Tunisia. Driven mainly by significantly lower liftings in Libya, total sales quantity decreased by 9%.
As of December 31, 2013, proved oil and gas reserves were 1,131 mn boe (of which 728 mn boe related to Petrom). Proved and probable oil and gas reserves amounted to 1,916 mn boe (thereof Petrom: 1,025 mn boe). The three-year average reserve replacement rate stood at 93% in 2013 (2012: 79%). For the single year 2013, this rate was 113% (2012: 86%).

Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. fourth quarter 2012 (Q4/12)
- Positive EconGas result mainly driven by improved gas supply
- Performance of the gas logistics business impacted by challenging storage markets
Power result burdened by weak power market environment
Clean EBIT increased by 35% to EUR 80 mn mainly due to the significant positive contribution of the business unit supply, marketing and trading, partially offset by lower results from gas logistics and power. Special items of EUR (128) mn mainly resulting from the impairment of the Etzel gas storage in Germany, led to a reported EBIT of EUR (47) mn.
Total gas sales volumes in the business unit supply, marketing and trading decreased by 8% vs. Q4/12 from 128.67 TWh to 118.40 TWh mainly due to weak gas demand and reduced trading activities in EconGas. EconGas recorded lower gas sales volumes in all customer segments but especially a drop in demand from industrial and power plant customers in Austria and reduced gas trading activities. The EconGas margin was positive, driven by the interim agreement on the longterm gas supply contract reached with Gazprom, including a retroactive price adjustment as of April 1, 2013, as well as by the renegotiated long-term gas supply contract agreed with Statoil, effective as of October 1, 2013. The result contribution of the gas business in Petrom was below the level of Q4/12, mainly due to lower margins. Gas sales volumes of Petrom decreased by 6% to 13.56 TWh in Q4/13 vs. 14.44 TWh in Q4/12, due to weak demand from the industrial sector and above average temperatures. Estimated natural gas consumption in Romania decreased by 8%. The average estimated import price was USD 420/1,000 cbm (EUR 29.4/MWh), the regulated domestic gas price for non-household consumers increased to RON 68.3/MWh (EUR 15.3/MWh), and for households increased to RON 49.8/MWh (EUR 11.2/MWh) following the implementation of the gas price liberalization roadmap. In Turkey, OMV sold 3.14 TWh of natural gas and LNG in Q4/13 compared to 3.02 TWh in Q4/12.
In the business unit gas logistics, the new pricing in the Austrian gas storage business had a negative impact on the result. In order to react to current market conditions and to support long-term customer relations, a tariff and capacity reduction for running gas storage contracts has been in place for customers in Austria since July 2013. In the gas transportation business, the new gas market model with an entry/exit tariff system was introduced in Austria, which required the transformation of the existing point-to-point contracts. Therefore, the key performance indicator was changed to "gas transportation volumes sold entry/exit in TWh", which is reported from 2013 onwards. Profit contribution from the Austrian gas transportation business came in below last year's level mainly due to lower revenues in the secondary market as a result of adapted contracts and higher costs.
The business unit power reported a total net electrical output of 2.11 TWh in Q4/13, mainly from the gas-fired power plants in Romania and Turkey. The average base load electricity price in Romania was EUR 38.7/MWh in Q4/13, 11% lower than in Q4/12. The average base load electricity price in Turkey was EUR 58.9/MWh in Q4/13, down by 9% vs. Q4/12. Overall, the power business result was burdened by reduced power consumption in Romania and lower electricity prices in Romania as well as in Turkey.
Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. third quarter 2013 (Q3/13)
Clean EBIT increased significantly mainly due to the positive impact of the interim agreement on the long-term gas supply contract reached with Gazprom (the Q2/13 and Q3/13 effect was also reported in Q4/13) and the seasonal development of the supply, marketing and trading business. Reported EBIT showed a negative development due to the impairment of the Etzel gas storage in Germany. Total gas sales volumes in the supply, marketing and trading business increased by 38%, driven by seasonality. During the summer period, Petrom sold higher volumes of domestic gas to customers who stored it; therefore, the effect of the seasonal increase of 21% in Q4/13 was smaller than the 114% seasonal increase of estimated total Romanian gas consumption. Profit contribution from the Austrian gas transportation business was below the Q3/13 level mainly due to higher costs. Total net electrical output increased significantly vs. Q3/13 mainly driven by slightly better market conditions for gas-fired power plants in Turkey.
January to December 2013 vs. January to December 2012
Clean EBIT decreased by 25% to EUR 137 mn vs. EUR 184 mn in 2012 driven by the negative performance of the business unit supply, marketing and trading mainly due to lower gas margins as well as gas storage costs which were not covered by customer contracts. Reported EBIT dropped to EUR 1 mn vs. EUR 43 mn in 2012 due to special items of EUR (137) mn, mainly related to the impairment of the Etzel gas storage in Germany and the impairment of the heat recovery power plant in Weitendorf (Austria).
The business unit supply, marketing and trading recorded a 3% decrease in total gas sales volumes compared to 2012, mainly due to weak gas demand from industrial and power plant customers in Austria and reduced gas trading activities in EconGas. The performance of EconGas was slightly positive due to the renegotiated long-term gas supply contracts, an improved Gate LNG position as well as reduced logistics costs. Petrom's gas sales remained relatively stable with a volume increase of 1% vs. 2012, from 52.16 TWh to 52.70 TWh, despite an overall market decline of around 8%. Petrom's gas sales increase was mainly driven by the integrated gas supply to the gas-fired power plant Brazi. However, the result contribution of the gas business at Petrom was below the level of 2012, mainly due to lower margins. In Turkey, OMV sold approx. 11.94 TWh of natural gas and LNG in 2013 vs. 11.61 TWh in 2012. The weaker TRY against the USD in 2013 led to higher gas supply costs, hence lower natural gas margins vs. 2012 were recorded in Turkey.
In the business unit gas logistics, the storage business saw an increase in average storage capacities sold as well as in working gas volumes sold due to the higher contribution of the storage Etzel in Germany, which started operations in June 2012. In order to react to current market conditions and to support long-term customer relations, a tariff and capacity reduction for running gas storage contracts has been in place for customers in Austria since July 2013. Therefore, and due to low summer/winter gas price spreads, the result contribution of the storage business, however, decreased significantly. The gas transportation business increased the result mainly due to the start-up of the expansion of the West-Austria-Gas pipeline in January 2013, partially offset by higher costs.
The power business recorded a net electrical output of 4.34 TWh vs. 1.69 TWh in 2012 mainly from the gas-fired power plant in Brazi (Romania) and the gas-fired power plant Samsun (Turkey) which started operations in June 2013. The performance of the power business was, however, impacted by unfavorable market conditions. The average base load electricity price in Romania decreased significantly to EUR 35.3/MWh in 2013 vs. EUR 48.8/MWh in 2012. In Turkey, the average base load electricity price stood at EUR 59.2/MWh in 2013 vs. EUR 64.7/MWh in 2012. Both markets saw a weak power demand and higher renewable power generation, which burdened the result of the power business.

Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. fourth quarter 2012 (Q4/12)
Lower refining result driven by poor margin environment
Strong marketing result supported by strict cost management
High refinery utilization rate at 95%
At EUR 92 mn, clean CCS EBIT strongly decreased vs. EUR 145 mn in Q4/12, driven by a significantly lower OMV indicator refining margin and despite an increased contribution of the marketing business. Net special charges were recognized in Q4/13 in the amount of EUR (7) mn, mainly related to the write-off of marketing assets in Germany. Falling crude prices over the quarter contributed to negative CCS effects of EUR (43) mn, which led to a reported EBIT of EUR 42 mn vs. EUR 31 mn in Q4/12.
The clean CCS EBIT in refining was significantly below the level of Q4/12, mainly reflecting the poor margin environment. The OMV indicator refining margin decreased significantly from USD 4.03/bbl in Q4/12 to USD 1.16/bbl, mainly as a result of lower gasoline and middle distillates spreads. Refining West was strongly burdened by the decrease of the OMV indicator refining margin West from USD 5.58/bbl in Q4/12 to USD 2.46/bbl in Q4/13. At Petrom, the refining result suffered from the decline of the OMV indicator refining margin East from USD (2.51)/bbl in Q4/12 to USD (4.39)/bbl in Q4/13 mainly due to lower gasoline and middle distillates spreads and despite lower costs. At EUR 25 mn, the clean petrochemicals EBIT was above the EUR 9 mn recorded in Q4/12, driven by improved propylene margins.
Overall, the refinery utilization rate increased to a high level of 95%. In refining West, the utilization rate was at 96% vs. 94% in Q4/12. The utilization rate of the refinery Petrobrazi was 90% in Q4/13 compared to 93% in the same period of last year.
The contribution from Borealis (which is accounted for at equity and therefore shown in the financial result of OMV Group) was strong and increased by EUR 17 mn to EUR 53 mn in Q4/13, due to better polyolefin margins versus the same period in 2012, an improved base chemicals business and a solid contribution from Borouge. The Borouge 3 expansion project is on track for start-up in 2014 and will increase the annual production capacity of the integrated olefins/polyolefins site in Abu Dhabi from 2 mn t to 4.5 mn t.
The clean marketing EBIT was above the level of Q4/12, mainly driven by strict cost management in the retail and the commercial business. Overall, marketing sales volumes were up by 1% compared to Q4/12. As of December 31, 2013, the total number of filling stations in the Group stood at 4,192 compared to 4,432 at the end of December 2012, due to the sale of the marketing subsidiaries in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina as well as network optimization mainly in Turkey, Austria and Germany.
Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. third quarter 2013 (Q3/13)
At EUR 92 mn, clean CCS EBIT was slightly lower than the EUR 98 mn in Q3/13 due to the OMV indicator refining margin remaining at historically low levels. Naphtha spreads improved somewhat but these were largely offset by a further reduction in gasoline spreads. The petrochemicals result was EUR 25 mn, slightly below the EUR 27 mn level in Q3/13, driven by lower sales volumes and with relatively stable margins. In spite of seasonally lower volumes and with margins also weakening slightly vs. Q3/13, the marketing business still contributed strongly to the overall R&M result. This was driven by a strict cost management in both the retail and the commercial business.
January to December 2013 vs. January to December 2012
At EUR 462 mn, clean CCS EBIT came in slightly lower than the EUR 488 mn in 2012, despite a significantly lower OMV indicator refining margin, mainly reflecting a better performance in the marketing business. Net special gains of EUR 383 mn were recognized in 2013, mainly related to the completed sale of LMG Lagermanagement GmbH in Q1/13. Falling crude prices over the year contributed to negative CCS effects of EUR (73) mn vs. EUR 1 mn in 2012, which led to a reported EBIT of EUR 772 mn vs. EUR 417 mn in 2012.
The refining result was significantly down compared to 2012, mainly due to a strong decrease in the OMV indicator refining margin as a result of lower gasoline and middle distillate spreads. The OMV indicator refining margin East of USD (2.83)/bbl remained negative compared to the level of 2012, which was USD (1.39)/bbl.
At 92%, overall refining utilization in 2013 increased compared to the level of 88% in 2012, as the latter was impacted by a scheduled six-week shutdown in Petrobrazi in Q2/12. Total refining output increased accordingly by 4% year-on-year.
The clean petrochemicals EBIT increased to EUR 140 mn (vs. EUR 102 mn in 2012) due to higher ethylene and propylene margins, which more than compensated for lower butadiene margins.
The clean marketing result came in above the level of 2012, reflecting increased margins and better cost management in both the retail and the commercial business and despite slightly lower sales volumes, mainly due to the sale of the Marketing business in Croatia and Bosnia-Herzegovina.
Outlook
Mid-term guidance
The current upstream portfolio, including the completion of projects under development, should enable OMV to reach a production level of approximately 400 kboe/d and a three-year average reserve replacement rate of 100% by 2016. Average group CAPEX for the period 2014-2016 is expected to be EUR ~3.9 bn p.a. with roughly 80% being directed to E&P. Assuming market conditions similar to those currently prevailing, the Group's operating cash flow and planned divestments are expected to be adequate to fund this investment program as well as the dividends to shareholders with the gearing ratio remaining in line with the long-term target of ≤30%. ROACE performance in the mid-term will be adversely affected by capital consumed in project developments, though it will return towards target levels as these developments come on stream. The dividend is expected to increase in line with net income attributable to stockholders (payout ratio 30%).
Market environment
For 2014, OMV expects the average Brent oil price to remain above USD 100/bbl, whilst the Brent-Urals spread is anticipated to stay relatively tight. In Romania, scheduled domestic gas price increases due in January have already been implemented, with further increases due in April, July and October 2014. The G&P market environment is expected to remain highly challenging. Refining margins are forecast to remain under pressure in 2014 due to sluggish economic recovery and persisting overcapacity on European markets. In the petrochemical business, margins are expected to remain on similar levels as in 2013. Marketing volumes are anticipated to remain under pressure as ongoing demand weakness caused by a still weak economic environment continues to affect OMV's core markets. Marketing margins are expected to remain at or slightly below 2013 levels.
Group
- OMV aims to achieve world class HSSE performance with safe workplaces as well as processes and to further improve the Lost-Time Injury Rate (LTIR)
- CAPEX for 2014 is expected to be around EUR 3.9 bn
- The group-wide performance improvement program "energize OMV", which targets a 2% points ROACE contribution, is on track to achieve its target by the end of 2014
Exploration and Production
- The security situation in Libya and Yemen remains very difficult to predict. Taking this into account, the production level in 2014 is expected to be in the range of 320-340 kboe/d. In Romania and Austria, production is expected to remain within the targeted production range of 200-210 kboe/d
- In Norway, production from Gudrun (start-up expected in Q1/14) and Gullfaks is expected to rise to about 40 kboe/d during 2014
- Production in New Zealand is expected to be higher on a yearly basis following the successful completion of the refurbishment program in Maari in 2013 and additional production coming from the Maari Growth project in 2014
- E&P capital expenditure for 2014 will be around EUR 3 bn, with the following major investment projects: Gullfaks, Aasta Hansteen, Edvard Grieg and Gudrun in Norway, Schiehallion in the UK, Habban Phase 2 in Yemen, Nawara in Tunisia and field redevelopments in Romania and Austria
- In Romania, following data interpretation of the 3D seismic survey of the Neptun block, a new drilling campaign is anticipated to start around mid-2014
- In Norway, appraisal work on the oil discovery in Wisting Central is expected to start in H1/14
- Exploration and appraisal expenditure will be around EUR 0.7 bn with up to 12 high impact exploration wells expected to be drilled in Romania (Black Sea), Norway (Barents Sea), Gabon, New Zealand, Faroe Islands (West of Shetlands) and Austria
Gas and Power
- In EconGas, further renegotiations of the long-term gas supply contract with Gazprom will continue with the aim of achieving full market-based pricing. Focus on improving the Gate LNG position will continue
- Gas demand in Romania is expected to further decrease which will lead to increased competition and margin pressure in 2014
- The gas business in Turkey is expected to be significantly burdened by the gas prices as set by the dominant local gas supplier Botas and by the expected FX rate development
- In the gas storage business, the second tranche of caverns in Etzel will be handed over for operation in mid-2014. The very low level of summer/winter spreads and of storage prices are expected to further reduce profitability
- A significantly lower contribution from the Austrian gas transportation business is expected as restructuring measures following the changes in the Austrian Gas Act will be implemented
In Romania and Turkey, a further deterioration of spark spreads is expected, partly driven by the increase in Romanian gas prices, leading to an overall negative power result in 2014
Refining and Marketing
- The Petrobrazi refinery modernization program will be finalized during 2014, leading to improvements in both refining efficiency and yield structure. In this context, a 30-day shutdown and turnaround is planned for the refinery during Q2
- Further major shutdowns in 2014 are planned for the Schwechat refinery in Q2 (15 days for crude unit cleaning) and the Burghausen refinery in Q4 (40 days general shutdown for the regular TÜV inspection)
- Closing of the Bayernoil disposal is expected in the first half of 2014
- The divestment program is well on track and expected to deliver the target of up to EUR 1 bn by the end of 2014
- The recent volatility in the economic development in Turkey creates a challenge for Petrol Ofisi's profitability

Notes to the income statement
Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. fourth quarter 2012 (Q4/12)
Consolidated sales decreased by 9% vs. Q4/12, mainly due to lower marketing and gas sales volumes. The Group's reported EBIT was at EUR 213 mn, considerably below Q4/12 at EUR 791 mn, driven by lower E&P sales volumes and higher exploration expenses mainly related to write-offs in Norway and in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq, partly offset by a positive EconGas result coming from the interim agreement with Gazprom and the renegotiated long-term gas supply contract with Statoil. Petrom group's reported EBIT was at EUR 312 mn, below Q4/12 (EUR 372 mn), mainly due to higher depreciation, a lower OMV indicator refining margin East and a lower consolidation line. In Q4/13, net special charges of EUR (188) mn were recorded, mainly resulting from the impairment of the Etzel gas storage in Germany. Negative CCS effects of EUR (43) mn were recognized in Q4/13 due to the decrease of crude oil prices. Clean CCS EBIT decreased from EUR 956 mn in Q4/12 to EUR 444 mn. Petrom's contribution to the Group's clean CCS EBIT was EUR 310 mn, 24% lower vs. Q4/12.
The net financial result of EUR (194) mn in Q4/13 was lower compared to EUR (104) mn in Q4/12. This was mainly attributable to the EUR (117) mn write-down of financial assets being disposed as part of the ongoing divestment program and to higher FX losses.
Current tax expenses on Group income of EUR 58 mn and a deferred tax income of EUR 98 mn were recognized in Q4/13. The effective tax rate in Q4/13 was negative at (218)% (Q4/12: 41%), as on average the effective tax rate of those entities with a negative contribution was significantly higher than the effective tax rate of those entities with a positive contribution.
Net income attributable to stockholders was EUR (78) mn vs. EUR 317 mn in Q4/12. Minority and hybrid interests were EUR 137 mn (Q4/12: EUR 86 mn). Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders was EUR 178 mn (Q4/12: EUR 393 mn). EPS for the quarter was at EUR (0.24) and clean CCS EPS was at EUR 0.55 (Q4/12: EUR 0.97 and EUR 1.20 respectively).
Fourth quarter 2013 (Q4/13) vs. third quarter 2013 (Q3/13)
Sales decreased by 3%, mainly due to lower marketing sales volumes, due to seasonality effects. The reported EBIT was at EUR 213 mn, lower than in Q3/13 (EUR 576 mn), mainly driven by lower sales volumes in E&P, lower crude oil prices and net special charges due to impairment of the Etzel gas storage, partly compensated by a higher EconGas contribution. Clean CCS EBIT decreased by 28%. The net financial result was below last quarter, driven mainly by the write-down of financial assets being disposed as part of the ongoing divestment program. The negative effective tax rate of (218)% in Q4/13 (Q3/13: 26%) was mainly related to negative contributions from entities with high tax rates. Net income attributable to stockholders was EUR (78) mn (Q3/13: EUR 229 mn). Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders decreased to EUR 178 mn vs. EUR 263 mn in Q3/13.
January to December 2013 vs. January to December 2012
Consolidated sales decreased by 1% vs. 2012, mainly driven by lower oil sales volumes as well as lower marketing sales. The Group's reported EBIT was below 2012, at EUR 2,717 mn, burdened by lower E&P sales and decreased oil prices. Petrom's contribution to reported EBIT increased by 5% to EUR 1,336 mn vs. previous year, mainly due to the impact of Petrobrazi refinery shutdown on sales volumes in 2012, overall strict cost management and higher gas prices. Net special income of EUR 143 mn (2012: EUR (304) mn), was mainly related to the sale of LMG Lagermanagement GmbH, partly compensated by the impairment of E&P assets in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq and the impairment of the Etzel gas storage in Germany. Negative CCS effects of EUR (73) mn were recognized (2012: positive effect of EUR 1 mn). Clean CCS EBIT decreased by 22% to EUR 2,647 mn. Petrom's contribution was EUR 1,362 mn, 3% above 2012 (EUR 1,316 mn).
In 2013, the net financial result of EUR (427) mn was below that in 2012 (EUR (246) mn).This was mainly caused by the write-down of financial assets being disposed of as part of the ongoing divestment program as well as the write-off of assets related to the Nabucco West project which were booked as special items in the financial result. The contribution from associated companies was also lower.
The Group recognized current tax expenses on income of EUR 692 mn and a deferred tax income of EUR 131 mn in 2013. The effective tax rate was 25% in 2013 (2012: 37%). The decrease in effective tax rate was mainly a result of the lower profit contribution from highly taxed Libya.
Net income attributable to stockholders was at EUR 1,162 mn, below the 2012 level (EUR 1,363 mn). Minority and hybrid interests were EUR 566 mn (2012: EUR 427 mn). Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders was EUR 1,112 mn (2012: EUR 1,544 mn). EPS was EUR 3.56, clean CCS EPS was EUR 3.41 (2012: EUR 4.18 and EUR 4.73 respectively).

Notes to the balance sheet as of December 31, 2013
Capital expenditure increased to EUR 5,226 mn (2012: EUR 2,426 mn), mainly driven by the purchase of Statoil assets, together with E&P investments in Petrom and field developments in Norway and the UK.
E&P invested EUR 4,431 mn (2012: EUR 1,598 mn) mainly for the purchase of Statoil assets, together with field redevelopments in Romania and Austria, and field developments in Norway and the UK. CAPEX in the G&P business segment of EUR 270 mn (2012: EUR 351 mn) was mainly related to the acquisition of the non-controlling stake in Baumgarten-Oberkappel Gasleitungsgesellschaft m.b.H., to the exercise of put options held by Oberösterreichische Ferngas Aktiengesellschaft leading to an increase of OMV's indirect stake in EconGas GmbH, to the acquisition of RWE's stake in NABUCCO Gas Pipeline International GmbH, and to investments in the power plant project Samsun (Turkey). CAPEX in the R&M business segment amounted to EUR 493 mn (2012: EUR 435 mn), mainly comprising investments in the modernization of the Petrobrazi refinery in Romania, in Petrol Ofisi, the revamp of the butadiene plant in Schwechat and the start of construction of the butadiene plant in Burghausen. CAPEX in the Co&O segment was EUR 32 mn (2012: EUR 42 mn).
Compared to year-end 2012, total assets increased by EUR 1,267 mn to EUR 31,786 mn. Increasing effects came primarily from the rise in property, plant and equipment, partly compensated by the reduction in inventories and trade receivables mainly resulting from the implemented working capital measures.
Equity remained stable in 2013. The Group's equity ratio decreased slightly to 46% on December 31, 2013, compared with 48% at the end of 2012.
The total number of own shares held by the Company as of December 31, 2013, amounted to 1,038,404 (December 31, 2012: 1,078,780).
Short- and long-term borrowings, bonds and finance leases stood at EUR 5,076 mn (December 31, 2012: EUR 4,974 mn), thereof EUR 182 mn liabilities for finance leases (December 31, 2012: EUR 185 mn).
The cash position decreased to EUR 705 mn (December 31, 2012: EUR 1,227 mn). The decrease is mainly caused by the purchase of Statoil assets in Norway and the UK and is partly compensated by the completed sale of LMG Lagermanagement GmbH and the implemented working capital measures.
Net debt increased to EUR 4,371 mn compared to EUR 3,747 mn at the end of 2012 which reflects the issuance of a new bond and the decrease of the cash position. The EUR 500 mn Eurobond was issued on November 18, 2013 and has a coupon of 1,75% and a maturity date of November 25, 2019. On December 31, 2013, the gearing ratio stood at 30.1% (December 31, 2012: 25.8%).

Notes to the cash flows
In 2013, the inflow of funds from net income, adjusted for non-cash items such as depreciation, net change in long-term provisions, non-cash income from investments and other positions which include the gain from the sale of LMG Lagermanagement GmbH (LMG), was EUR 3,437 mn (2012: EUR 3,576 mn). Net working capital generated a cash inflow of EUR 673 mn (2012: EUR 237 mn) mainly as a result of the implemented working capital improvement measures such as securitization and factoring. These measures led to a EUR 297 mn increase in cash flow from operating activities as compared to 2012, reaching EUR 4,110 mn.
In 2013, net cash used in investing activities amounted to EUR 3,968 mn (2012: EUR 2,279 mn), mainly related to the purchase of Statoil assets in Norway and the UK. Apart from the payments for investments in intangible assets and property, plant and equipment (EUR 4,755 mn), there was a net cash inflow from the completed sale of LMG and other divestments.
Free cash flow (defined as net cash from operating activities less net cash used in investing activities) showed an inflow of funds of EUR 142 mn (2012: EUR 1,533 mn). Free cash flow less dividend payments resulted in a cash outflow of EUR 485 mn (2012: Cash inflow EUR 907 mn).
Cash flow from financing activities reflected a net outflow of funds amounting to EUR 641 mn (2012: EUR 658 mn), mainly related to the dividends paid during the period and to repayments of long-term debt and finance leases, partially compensated by the new EUR 500 mn Eurobond issued in November. The position also includes the acquisition of the noncontrolling stake of 49% in Baumgarten-Oberkappel Gasleitungsgesellschaft m.b.H. and the exercise of put options held by Oberösterreichische Ferngas Aktiengesellschaft that led to an increase of OMV's indirect stake in EconGas GmbH, partly compensated by the decrease in the stake held in Austrian Gas Grid Management AG.

Fair value measurement
Financial instruments recognized at fair value are disclosed according to the following fair value measurement hierarchy:
Level 1: Using quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.
Level 2: Using inputs for the asset or liability, other than quoted prices, that are observable either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).
Level 3: Using inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data such as prices, but on internal models or other valuation methods.

There are no Level 3 financial instruments used in OMV Group. There were no transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy.
With the exception of investments in other companies valued at cost, for which no reliable estimates of their fair values can be made, the carrying amounts of financial assets are the fair values.
Bonds and other interest-bearing debts amounting to EUR 4,895 mn (December 31, 2012: EUR 4,789 mn) are valued at amortized cost. The estimated fair value of these liabilities was EUR 5,142 mn (December 31, 2012: EUR 5,170 mn). The carrying amount of other financial liabilities is effectively the same as their fair value, as they are predominantly short-term.
Subsequent events
At the end of January 2014, the Matuku-1 exploration well (New Zealand) completed drilling. The final results did not confirm the presence of commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. This will lead to a write-off in Q1/14 amounting to approximately EUR 40 mn.
Declaration of the management
We confirm to the best of our knowledge that the preliminary and unaudited consolidated financial statements give a true and fair view of the assets, liabilities, financial position and profit or loss of the Group as required by the applicable accounting standards and that the Group Directors' report gives a true and fair view of the development and performance of the business and the position of the Group, together with a description of the principal risks and uncertainties the Group faces.
