OMV Group Report January – March 2016

including interim consolidated financial statements as of March 31, 2016

  • Q1/16: Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders at EUR 174 mn, down by 27% vs. Q1/15, clean CCS EBIT at EUR 167 mn, down by 50% vs. Q1/15
  • Strong cash flow from operating activities at EUR 579 mn, up by 43% vs. Q1/15
  • Planned activity reductions led to lower CAPEX (down by 34%) and lower exploration expenditure (down by 24%) vs. Q1/15
  • Improved cost position supported the Group performance
  • Takeover of the minority stake of 35.75% in EconGas by OMV cleared by the competition authority
  • Strategic cooperations with Gazprom and ADNOC strengthened

Rainer Seele, CEO of OMV:

"The year 2016 started with a further sharp decrease in oil prices, with average Brent price dropping 37% to USD 34/bbl in Q1/16 vs. Q1/15, and exceptionally low gas prices. In this environment, as outlined in our strategy, we are focusing primarily on cash and costs. Group CAPEX was 34% lower, exploration expenditures were down by 24% and Upstream OPEX in USD/boe decreased by 13% compared to Q1/15. The Downstream business achieved a solid result, supported by a strong petrochemical performance, continuing to show the benefits of our integrated business model. We also improved our cash flow from operating activities, driven by the cash generation in Downstream but also supported by increased production in Norway. In the past months, we have made further progress in implementing our strategy: We have agreed with Gazprom that a share in an OMV North Sea subsidiary will be discussed for the asset swap and we have signed a technical evaluation agreement with ADNOC. In restructuring our Downstream Gas business, we are currently preparing to fully integrate EconGas within OMV to enable us to develop a strong gas sales business in Northwest Europe."

Group performance

First quarter 2016 (Q1/16) vs. first quarter 2015 (Q1/15)

Consolidated sales decreased by 31% vs. Q1/15, mainly due to lower Downstream sales. Clean CCS EBIT decreased from EUR 333 mn in Q1/15 to EUR 167 mn, driven by a lower Upstream result due to declined oil and gas prices. OMV Petrom group's Clean CCS EBIT was at EUR 92 mn, below Q1/15 (EUR 133 mn), as Q1/16 was burdened by lower oil prices. Net special items of EUR (15) mn were recorded in Q1/16, mainly related to a further provision charged against the Gate LNG obligation and associated transportation commitments due to changes in discount rates and forward market prices. This was partly offset by the reduction in the fine imposed to OMV Petrom by the Romanian Competition Council in 2011, following the final court decision. Negative CCS effects of EUR (104) mn were recognized in Q1/16 due to the decrease of oil prices during the quarter. The Group's reported EBIT was at EUR 48 mn, below Q1/15 (EUR 228 mn), driven by a lower Upstream result due to the decline in oil and gas prices. OMV Petrom's contribution to the Group's reported EBIT was EUR 77 mn, 30% lower vs. Q1/15. The net financial result of EUR 41 mn in Q1/16 improved significantly compared to the EUR (23) mn reported in Q1/15, mainly due to a higher income from at equity-accounted investments and an improved net interest result.

Current taxes on Group income of EUR (11) mn and deferred taxes of EUR 59 mn were recognized in Q1/16. The effective tax rate in Q1/16 was (54)% (Q1/15: (8)%) and was mainly driven by the strong performance of at-equity consolidated companies, the negative contribution of Norway as well as tax incentives in Norway and the United Kingdom.

Net income attributable to stockholders was EUR 95 mn vs. EUR 163 mn in Q1/15. Minority and hybrid interests were EUR 41 mn (Q1/15: EUR 58 mn). Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders was EUR 174 mn (Q1/15: EUR 237 mn). EPS for the quarter was at EUR 0.29 and clean CCS EPS was at EUR 0.53 (Q1/15: EUR 0.50 and EUR 0.73 respectively).

First quarter 2016 (Q1/16) vs. fourth quarter 2015 (Q4/15)

Consolidated sales in Q1/16 decreased by 21% vs. the previous quarter mainly due to lower product prices and seasonality in the Downstream Oil business. The Group's Clean CCS EBIT was at EUR 167 mn, lower compared with Q4/15 (EUR 187 mn) as a result of decreased oil prices and refining margins. The Group's reported EBIT increased from EUR (1,729) mn in Q4/15 to EUR 48 mn, as the Q4/15 result was burdened by impairments, mainly in the Upstream business. The net financial result was above last quarter, mainly driven by an improved net interest result.

The effective tax rate in Q1/16 was (54)% compared to 24% in Q4/15. The positive effective tax rate in Q4/15 was influenced by impairments. The negative effective tax rate in Q1/16 was mainly the result of the strong performance of atequity consolidated companies, the negative contribution of Norway as well as tax incentives in Norway and the United Kingdom.

Net income attributable to stockholders was EUR 95 mn (Q4/15: EUR (1,017) mn). Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders decreased to EUR 174 mn vs. EUR 180 mn in Q4/15.

In Q1/16, 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 was EUR 653 mn (Q1/15: EUR 680 mn). Net working capital components in the cash flow statement generated a cash outflow of EUR 73 mn (Q1/15: EUR 274 mn). Cash flow from operating activities increased by EUR 173 mn, compared to Q1/15, reaching EUR 579 mn.

In Q1/16, net cash from investing activities resulted in an outflow of EUR 724 mn (Q1/15: EUR 923 mn), mainly related to investments in Romania and Norway.

Free cash flow (defined as net cash from operating activities less net cash used in investing activities) showed an outflow of funds of EUR 145 mn (Q1/15: EUR 517 mn). Free cash flow less dividend payments resulted in a cash outflow of EUR 145 mn (Q1/15: EUR 517 mn).

Cash flow from financing activities reflected a net outflow of funds amounting to EUR 32 mn (Q1/15: Net inflow of EUR 434 mn), mainly related to repayments of long-term debt partially compensated by new drawings of long-term debt and short-term borrowings.

Risk management

As an international oil and gas company with operations extending from hydrocarbon exploration and production through trading and marketing of mineral products and gas, OMV is exposed to a variety of risks including market and financial risks, operational and strategic risks. A detailed description of risks and risk management activities can be found in the Annual Report 2015 (pages 31-33).

For 2016 the main uncertainties which can influence OMV Group's performance remain the commodity price risk, FX risk, operational risks and also political as well as regulatory risks. The commodity price risk is being monitored constantly and when appropriate protective measures for the cash flow are taken. The inherent exposure to safety and environmental risks is monitored through HSSE (Health, Safety, Security and Environment) and risk management programs, having the clear commitment to maintain OMV's risks in line with industry standards.

See also Outlook section of Director's report below for more information on the current risks.

Outlook

Market environment

For the year 2016, OMV expects the Brent oil price to average around USD 40/bbl. The Brent-Urals spread is anticipated to be wider than in recent years. The gas market environment is expected to remain challenging in 2016. Refining margins are expected to be below 2015 levels due to persisting overcapacity in European markets. In the petrochemical business, margins are also expected to decline from 2015. Due to the decreased oil price, lower product prices are expected to support the demand for mineral oil products.

Group

  • CAPEX (incl. capitalized E&A) for 2016 is expected to be around EUR 2.4 bn
  • OMV is currently implementing a cost reduction and efficiency improvement program which targets savings of at least EUR 100 mn in 2017 vs. 2015 on a comparable basis

Upstream

  • Production in Libya and Yemen is expected to be affected throughout the year due to the extended critical security situation. Excluding these two countries, OMV expects total production for 2016 to average approximately 300 kboe/d
  • The combined production of Romania and Austria is expected to average in the range of 190-200 kboe/d. In Austria, a turnaround is planned at a gas facility in Q2/16 while in Romania works at onshore facilities, including shut-ins at key wells, are planned in H2/16
  • In Norway, the average production for 2016 is expected to increase to above 60 kboe/d due to additional volumes mainly from the ramp up of Edvard Grieg. The total production level will be affected by planned turnarounds in Q3/16
  • Upstream capital expenditure for 2016 is expected to be roughly 70% of total Group CAPEX and includes, among others, drilling and workover activities in Romania and Austria and the following major investment projects: Gullfaks, Aasta Hansteen and Edvard Grieg in Norway, Nawara in Tunisia, Schiehallion in the UK and field redevelopment projects in Romania
  • In the Neptun Deep block (Romanian Black Sea), the second exploration drilling campaign was completed in January 2016 with seven wells finalized, the majority of them encountering gas. Further interpretation and analysis of the data gathered is required to enhance the assessment and determine the full block potential. The results of the drilling campaign are sufficiently encouraging to progress more detailed work to determine if a development is commercially viable
  • Exploration and appraisal expenditure is expected to be around EUR 450 mn in 2016

Downstream

  • Capacity utilization adjusted for turnaround periods is expected to remain high due to the strong performance in all sales channels and will support the stable profit and cash contribution from the Downstream Oil business
  • Following the successful completion of the major shutdown in the Schwechat refinery, a further major shutdown is planned in the Petrobrazi refinery for approx. one month, starting at the end of May 2016
  • OMV has initiated a process to sell up to 100% of its wholly owned subsidiary OMV Petrol Ofisi and has selected its advisors to support the potential transaction and the structuring of the envisaged process
  • Natural gas sales margins are expected to remain at low levels, due to the continued weak gas market environment
  • Spark spreads in Romania and Turkey are expected to remain weak
  • The divestment of a stake of up to 49% in Gas Connect Austria has been initiated and the transaction is expected to be signed in 2016
  • The takeover of the minority stake of 35.75% in EconGas by OMV was cleared by the competition authority. Consequently, EconGas will be fully integrated into OMV Group, representing a further step in restructuring and increasing the efficiency of the gas business
  • Final investment decision for the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project is planned to be taken in the course of 2016

First quarter 2016 (Q1/16) vs. first quarter 2015 (Q1/15)

  • Lower oil and gas prices negatively impacted the result in Q1/16
  • Strict cost management and planned spending reductions led to lower OPEX and exploration costs
  • Production was 3% higher than in Q1/15, driven by higher production in Norway

In Q1/16, the average Brent price in USD was 37% lower than in Q1/15. The Group's average realized crude price decreased by 35% and the average realized gas price in USD/1,000 cf decreased by 11% compared to Q1/15.

Clean EBIT turned negative to EUR (97) mn vs. EUR 33 mn in Q1/15, largely driven by lower oil and gas prices. Lower production costs and exploration expenses only partially offset this effect. Exploration expenses decreased to EUR 36 mn from EUR 61 mn in Q1/15, mainly driven by a lower activity level and the absence of write-offs of wells in Q1/16. Net special items recorded in the quarter amounted to EUR (6) mn, mainly relating to restructuring costs. These net special items led to a reported EBIT of EUR (103) mn (Q1/15: EUR 29 mn).

Production costs excluding royalties (OPEX) in USD/boe were 13% lower than in Q1/15, mainly due to lower service as well as personnel costs, driven by strict cost management, the favorable EUR-USD FX-rate and higher production. These effects were partly offset by higher costs in Norway due to the Edvard Grieg field coming on stream. OPEX in USD/boe at OMV Petrom decreased by 14%, driven mainly by lower service and personnel costs and supported by the RON-USD FXrate development. OMV Group's exploration expenditure decreased to EUR 115 mn, down by 24% compared to Q1/15, reflecting lower activities in line with the revised exploration strategy. Thus, exploration expenditures were lower in Romania, the United Arab Emirates and Austria, partly offset by increased expenditures in Norway.

Total OMV daily production of oil, NGL and gas was 312 kboe/d. This was 3% higher than in Q1/15, driven by the higher contribution from Norway, partly offset by lower production in Romania and the shut-in in Yemen. OMV Petrom's total daily oil and gas production decreased by 5% compared to Q1/15, mainly due to natural decline reflecting the reduced investment level. Total OMV daily oil and NGL production increased by 7%, reflecting the strong contribution from Norway, driven by the contribution from the Edvard Grieg field which started production at the end of 2015. This was partly offset by the shut-in in Yemen. Total OMV daily gas production was 1% lower than in Q1/15, mainly due to declines in Romania and Austria, partly offset by increased production in Norway. Total sales volumes increased by 7%, predominantly related to higher volumes from Norway.

First quarter 2016 (Q1/16) vs. fourth quarter 2015 (Q4/15)

Clean EBIT decreased to EUR (97) mn in Q1/16 vs. EUR (62) mn in Q4/15, mainly driven by the further decline in oil and gas prices. This was partly offset by significantly lower exploration expenses and lower depreciation due to a lower asset base following the impairments recorded in Q4/15. In Q1/16, exploration expenses stood at EUR 36 mn, substantially below the EUR 185 mn in Q4/15 which, however, included significant impairments of exploration assets treated as special items (clean exploration expenses were EUR 130 mn in Q4/15). This was due to lower exploration activities and the absence of write-offs of wells in Q1/16. Total daily production increased by 1% compared to Q4/15. The increase was mainly driven by

higher production contribution from Norway, as the Edvard Grieg field was on stream for the whole quarter, while only for one month in Q4/15. Daily oil and NGL production increased by 4% due to higher production in Norway. Daily gas production was 2% lower compared to the previous quarter, mainly driven by lower volumes from Austria and Romania. Sales volumes were 5% lower compared to the previous quarter primarily as a result of lower gas sales in Austria due to lower customer nominations, lower sales volumes in Romania, and in Norway due to lifting schedules.

Calculated based on West European Contract Prices (WECP)

First quarter 2016 (Q1/16) vs. first quarter 2015 (Q1/15)

  • Increased petrochemicals and Borealis contribution
  • Downstream Oil result broadly stable despite decreased refining margins

Downstream Gas burdened by weak market environment

The clean CCS EBIT decreased to EUR 225 mn vs. EUR 260 mn in Q1/15, driven mainly by a lower contribution of the Downstream Gas business. Net special items of EUR (9) mn were recognized in Q1/16, mainly related to a further provision charged against the Gate LNG obligation and associated transportation commitments due to changes in discount rates and forward market prices. This was partly offset by the reduction in the fine imposed to OMV Petrom by the Romanian Competition Council in 2011, following the final court decision. Decreased crude prices over the quarter contributed to negative CCS effects of EUR (78) mn, which led to a reported EBIT of EUR 137 mn.

The Downstream Oil clean CCS EBIT decreased slightly to EUR 204 mn vs. EUR 205 mn in Q1/15, reflecting the lower refining margin which was partially compensated by a strong petrochemicals result and an improved OMV Petrol Ofisi contribution. The OMV indicator refining margin decreased from USD 7.45/bbl in Q1/15 to USD 5.08/bbl in Q1/16, mainly due to lower middle distillate spreads (OMV indicator refining margin West from USD 7.19/bbl in Q1/15 to USD 4.09/bbl in Q1/16; OMV indicator refining margin East from USD 8.24/bbl in Q1/15 to USD 8.06/bbl in Q1/16). Overall, the refinery utilization rate in Q1/16 was strong at 90% (92% in Q1/15), however affected by an external power supply failure in the Schwechat refinery. Total refined product sales were 4% above the level of Q1/15. In Q1/16, total retail sales volumes were stable compared to Q1/15. At EUR 53 mn, the clean petrochemicals EBIT was above the EUR 32 mn registered in Q1/15, driven by higher volumes and margins.

The contribution from Borealis (which is accounted for at-equity and therefore shown in the financial result of OMV Group) increased to EUR 92 mn in Q1/16 vs. EUR 50 mn in Q1/15, mainly driven by strong polyolefin margins and an improved contribution from the base chemicals business. The contribution from Borouge was however lower than in Q1/15, due to limited feedstock availability.

The Downstream Gas clean EBIT decreased to EUR 21 mn in Q1/16 vs. EUR 55 mn in Q1/15, as a result of a weak gas market environment resulting in lower gas sales volumes and low natural gas margins and a lower storage result. Additionally, the Q1/15 result reflected positive one-off effects. Natural gas sales volumes decreased by 14% to 32.49 TWh, mostly due to lower sales volumes in Romania and Austria. Overall, the natural gas sales margin was lower compared to the level of Q1/15. The contribution of the gas transportation business in Austria was broadly stable compared to Q1/15. Net electrical output decreased to 0.78 TWh in Q1/16 compared to 1.02 TWh in Q1/15. This resulted from a lower net electrical output in Turkey.

First quarter 2016 (Q1/16) vs. fourth quarter 2015 (Q4/15)

Clean CCS EBIT decreased to EUR 225 mn vs. EUR 247 mn, driven by a lower Downstream Oil result partly compensated by a significantly improved Downstream Gas result. The Downstream Oil clean CCS EBIT in Q1/16 was EUR 204 mn, lower than EUR 288 mn in Q4/15, mainly driven by the lower refining margins and lower sales volumes. The OMV indicator refining margin decreased vs. Q4/15, mainly due to lower middle distillates spreads partly compensated by lower crude prices (reducing the cost for own energy costs). The petrochemicals result remained on a comparable level to the previous quarter, amounting to EUR 53 mn in Q1/16 vs. EUR 52 mn in Q4/15. The retail business saw decreased sales volumes due to seasonality and network optimization activities at OMV Petrol Ofisi. The Downstream Gas clean EBIT increased significantly to EUR 21 mn in Q1/16 from EUR (40) mn in Q4/15, as the previous quarter was burdened by higher losses from valuation of forward contracts. Natural gas sales volumes increased in Q1/16, in the context of seasonally higher gas demand, to 32.49 TWh. The gas transportation business in Austria recorded a similar result compared to Q4/15. Net electrical output decreased from 1.92 TWh in Q4/15 to 0.78 TWh in Q1/16, due to the decrease in the net electrical output in Romania and Turkey.

Financial liabilities

As of March 31, 2016, short- and long-term borrowings, bonds and finance leases amounted to EUR 5,350 mn (December 31, 2015: EUR 5,386 mn), thereof EUR 286 mn liabilities for finance leases (December 31, 2015: EUR 290 mn).

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.

Total 387 617 1,004 779 1,008 1,787

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 5,056 mn (December 31, 2015: EUR 5,087 mn) are valued at amortized cost. The estimated fair value of these liabilities was EUR 5,557 mn (December 31, 2015: EUR 5,449 mn). The carrying amount of other financial liabilities is effectively the same as their fair value, as they are predominantly short-term.

In Q1/16, OMV received dividend income of EUR 153 mn (Q1/15: EUR 36 mn) from Borealis AG and EUR 7 mn (Q1/15: EUR nil) from Enerco Enerji Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş.

In June 2015, Borealis received a reassessment decision from the Finnish tax authority for its Finnish subsidiary Borealis Technology Oy with regard to the year 2010. The authority requested Borealis to pay an additional amount of EUR 125 mn, comprising taxes, late payment interest and penalties. This reassessment decision follows the reassessment decision received by Borealis at the end of 2014 for Borealis Technology Oy with regard to the year 2008 requesting Borealis to pay an additional EUR 282 mn. Borealis believes that both reassessment decisions are unjustified and has appealed by filing claims for adjustment with the Finnish tax authority's Board of Adjustment.

At the end of December 2015, Borealis received a reassessment decision from the Finnish tax authority for its Finnish subsidiary Borealis Polymers Oy with regard to the year 2009. The authority is requesting Borealis to pay an additional EUR 153 mn, an amount comprising taxes, late payment interest and penalties. Borealis believes also this reassessment decision is unjustified and has appealed against it by filing a claim for adjustment with the Finnish tax authority's Board of Adjustment.

Subsequent events

On April 29, 2016, OMV finalized the acquisition of 100% of the shares in FE-Trading GmbH, based in Anif (Austria) and FE-Trading trgovina d.o.o., based in Ljubljana (Slovenia). The companies operate a chain of unmanned filling stations in Austria and Slovenia.

Due to the limited information and time available after the transaction was closed, the initial accounting for the business combination is incomplete at the date of the interim financial statements approval. The effects on the Group's assets and liabilities and the consolidated statement of cash flows are not expected to be material.
