Petrobras financial performance in 3Q22
Rio de Janeiro, November 03, 2022
Message from the CFO
Dear shareholders and investors,
Once again, I am pleased to share with you the excellent results achieved by Petrobras in the third quarter of 2022. The numbers make clear the value that a company can generate for society and shareholders by making the right choices.
Guided by this commitment, we advanced significantly in the procurement of critical facilities to enable the sustained and profitable growth in oil and gas production, focused on the pre-salt. We signed contracts for three new FPSOs (P-80, P-82 and P-83) for the Búzios field, the largest in our portfolio and which will account for about 1/3 of our production in 2026. As a result, only one of the fifteen platforms included in our 2022-2026 Strategic Plan remains to be contracted.
The relevance of these contracts is demonstrated by the fact that, in the absence of this additional capacity, we would not be able to exploit our reserves efficiently and profitably, forsaking the economic benefits. Therefore, we are increasing the levels of confidence in achieving the goals of our plan, which is even more important in a scenario of rising costs and challenges in global supply chains.
From the financial point of view, we brought our cash position to a level more compatible with the financial needs of the company, considering that besides cash balances of US$ 6.8 billion, we have access to revolving credit facilities, resulting in additional liquidity to the company should stress scenarios eventually materialize. We managed to keep the company's capital structure at extremely healthy levels. It is worth highlighting the issuance of R$ 3 billion in commercial notes in September, and the signing of a credit line with sustainability commitments in July, in the amount of US$ 1.25 billion. The relevance of ESG in our business decisions is also reflected in the approval of the first thirteen projects amounting to US$ 76 million to be incorporated in the decarbonization fund. We estimate that these projects can mitigate 1.05 million tCO2e per year. The decarbonization fund was created in the 2022-26 Strategic Plan, with US$ 248 million allocated to develop solutions, studies and implementation of projects to mitigate our carbon emissions.
Our operational cash generation alongside low debt level and solid liquidity perspectives allowed us to return to society and shareholders dividends of R$ 3.35 per common and preferred share in the third quarter of 2022, totaling R$ 13.80 per common and preferred share in 2022. It is important to highlight that Brazilian society receives about 37% of this total, the largest single portion, in addition to benefiting from tax payments, amounting to R$ 73 billion in the third quarter and reaching the record for the first nine months of the year of R$ 222 billion, an amount already surpassing the total collected in 2021 (R$ 203 billion). It is worth noting that our shares went up 1,436% [1] relative to its lowest level in the previous decade, Additionally, R$ 20.91 in shareholder remuneration was declared or paid out in this time span, including the amount approved in 3Q22. In this period, The Federal Government 2 received R$ 113.8 billion in cumulative dividends. The fact that on October 21, 2022 Petrobras reached a record market value in reais of R$ 521 billion - reflecting the Company's strategic choices and management - should also not be underestimated since it results in higher wealth for society. We cannot fail to emphasize that our operating cash flow is directly related to management efficiency, our strategic decisions and our exposure and alignment to Brent prices. In a business characterized by long-term projects, that require relevant capital expenditures and investments in state-of-the-art technologies, and that depend on highly trained and motivated professionals, it is impossible to be successful if we deviate from the rationality of market prices. Moreover, it is worth remembering that not only our production taxes are referenced to international prices: our expenditures and investments also correlate to them to the extent that our industry’s inflation reflects pricing contexts and our exploratory risk – a key element in deepwater and ultra-deepwater exploration - is also quantified premised on market prices.

Additional to these considerations is the fact that, obviously, we must respect the existing legal framework, represented by laws such as the corporate act, the state-owned company act and the oil law, besides the Company's governance - recently strengthened on the matter of pricing policy, through the formalization of pricing guidelines by our BoD, which establishes a set of criteria and procedures for the approval of capital expenditures, with personal liabilities to the executives involved in the decisions.
Furthermore, Petrobras is not alone in the fuel market: nowadays we have in Brazil a dynamic that encompasses private refining capacity and importers that are necessary to meet oil products demand, which exceeds Brazilian production capacity. Without market prices, there is a risk of shortage of products, with obvious negative consequences for society as a whole.
Finally, it is also worth considering another aspect of our strategy that generates social benefits. Petrobras continuously manages its portfolio of assets, holding only to the most accretive to the Company. The ones eventually divested foster a positive economic dynamic not only by diversifying market agents but also because the buyers increase investments, jobs generation and income for society.
I conclude by reiterating our deep conviction that we are building a Petrobras which is more solid, more resilient and healthier and is able to invest, generate jobs, pay taxes, and return value to society and its shareholders.
Rodrigo Araujo Alves

In 3Q22, revenues remained roughly stable compared to 2Q22. Revenues from oil products in the domestic market grew 10% compared to 2Q22 - despite the drop in international prices - due to higher sales volumes of all products in 3Q22. Crude oil revenues in the domestic market fell 22% due to lower sales to Acelen and the drop in Brent prices.
Exports fell 26% in 3Q22 compared to 2Q22. In addition to the global depreciation of Brent and oil products prices, there were lower volumes of oil and fuel oil exports, mostly explained by exports that remained in progress for 4Q22.
In terms of revenue composition in the domestic market, diesel and gasoline remained the main products, accounting for 74% of the oil products revenue in 3Q22.

As the conflict in Ukraine persists, we maintained the strategy of diversifying oil flows carried out in 1H22. Russian exports, which previously supplied Europe, were diverted to Asian markets, mainly India and China. Throughout the years Petrobras has been implementing a constant search for global opportunities and the development of new clients, which was decisive for the company to change the flow of its exports as well, taking advantage of new arbitrages and maximizing value generation in its sales. In 3Q22, we continued to work on market development for pre-salt oils, focusing on Atapu and Sépia, which were the last streams added to Petrobras' export basket. In this quarter, four new clients were added, spread among Asia, Europe and South America.
In 3Q22, we had the following distribution of export destinations by volume:

In 3Q22, cost of goods sold grew 11% compared to 2Q22, mainly reflecting higher purchases and imports of crude and oil products. The depreciation of Brent prices contributed to the drop in government participation.
It is worth noting the continued decline of LNG in the composition of natural gas purchases, with a reduction of 2 MMm³/day in regasification volumes, reaching 5 MM m3/day in 3Q22, essentially explained by the low demand for gas for thermoelectric plants due to the positive hydrological scenario

In 3Q22, selling expenses grew 4% compared to 2Q22, mainly due to higher logistics expenses related to offshore trading operations.
General and Administrative expenses rose 10% compared to 2Q22, mainly reflecting wage adjustments under the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
The increase in exploration expenses is explained mostly by the reversal of expenses in 2Q22, due to the approval of the execution of a Conduct Adjustment Agreement (TAC) with the National Petroleum Agency to offset local content fines. The TAC provides for the conversion of fines into investment commitments in Exploration and Production with local content, and, under the terms of the agreement, Petrobras commits to invest in local content until 2026. In addition, there were higher expenses with geology and geophysics. The signature of the TAC does not alter the investments foreseen in the Strategic Plan 2022-26, disclosed by Petrobras on November 24, 2021, and is in line with the strategy of generating value by managing the Company's liabilities and improving its capital allocation.
In 3Q22, other expenses totaled R$ 911 million against revenues of R$ 10.9 billion in 2Q22. This variation is mainly explained by capital gain of R$ 14.2 billion in 2Q22 related to the co-participation agreements in the Sepia and Atapu fields.
Adjusted EBITDA
In 3Q22, Adjusted EBITDA reached R$ 91.4 billion, a 7% decrease compared to 2Q22, mainly due to the depreciation of Brent prices in the period and lower sales in the foreign market due to the increase in ongoing exports.

The financial result in 3Q22 was negative by R$ 8 billion, a 49% improvement over 2Q22 (R$ 15.8 billion), mainly reflecting the weaker depreciation of the BRL against USD (3% in 3Q22 against 11% in 2Q22). In addition, there was an improvement in monetary variations mainly due to the monetary restatement of anticipated dividends for the fiscal year 2022. In 3Q22, we also observed lower transaction costs in the repurchase of securities and a lower goodwill compared to 2Q22, when we carried out a tender offer of US$ 2.0 billion in April 2022.
Net profit (loss) attributable to Petrobras shareholders
Net income in 3Q22 was R$ 46.1 billion, compared to R$ 54.3 billion in 2Q22. This result is mainly explained by the depreciation of Brent prices, as well as capital gain of R$ 14.2 billion related to the co-participation agreements in Sepia and Atapu in 2Q22. These factors were partially offset by the improved financial result (R$ 7.8 billion) reflecting the lower depreciation of the BRL versus the USD in 3Q22 compared to 2Q22. With the lower pre-tax income, there was a lower income tax and social contribution expense of R$ 5.8 billion.
Recurring net income attributable to Petrobras shareholders and recurring Adjusted EBITDA
In 3Q22, net income was negatively impacted by R$ 0.2 billion and would have summed up to R$ 46.3 billion without the non-recurring items. Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by R$ 0.8 billion and would have summed up to R$ 92.3 billion without the non-recurring items.

Capex
Investment (Capex) encompasses acquisition of property, plant and equipment, including costs with leasing, intangible assets, investments in subsidiaries and affiliates, costs with geology and geophysics and pre-operating costs.
Table 9 - Capex
| US$ million | 3Q22 | 2Q22 | 3Q21 | 9M22 | 9M21 | Variation (%) — 3Q22 X 2Q22 | 3Q22 X 3Q21 | 9M22 X 9M21 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exploration and Production | 1,685 | 1,674 | 1,456 | 4,734 | 5,030 | 0.7 | 15.8 | (5.9) |

| Total | 2,131 | 3,073 | 1,863 | 6,972 | 6,140 | (30.6) | 14.4 | 13.5 |
In 3Q22, capex totaled US$ 2.1 billion, 31% below 2Q22, mainly due to the impact of the signature bonus of the Sépia and Atapu fields that occurred in 2Q22. In the first nine months of the year, capex totaled US$ 7.0 billion, an increase of 14% compared to 9M21, reaching 59% of the US$ 11.9 billion initially estimated for 2022, in the Strategic Plan 2022-26, including the $0.9 billion signing bonus.
Considering: (i) adjustments to the schedule of activities, (ii) optimization of exploratory expenses, and (iii) non-replacement of pipelines affected by SCC-CO2 in Búzios and Tupi, which when inspected indicated a longer useful life, we project investments between US$ 9 and US$ 10 billion for the year, with no impact on the 2022 production target.
Investments in growth correspond to 48% of total capex in 3Q22.
Growth capex are those with the primary objective of increasing the capacity of existing assets, deploying new production, offloading, and storage assets, increasing asset efficiency or profitability, and deploying essential infrastructure to enable other growth projects. It includes acquisitions of assets/companies and remaining investments in systems that started up as of 2020 and exploratory investments.
Sustaining capex, on the other hand, has the main objective of maintaining the operation of existing assets. It does not aim at increasing the capacity of the facilities. It includes investments in safety and reliability of facilities, replacement well projects, complementary development, remaining investments in systems that started up before 2020, scheduled stoppages and revitalizations (without new systems), 4D seismic, health, environment, and safety (HSE) projects, subsea line exchanges, operational infrastructure and information technology (IT).
In 3Q22, capex in the Exploration & Production segment totaled US$ 1.7 billion, in line with 2Q22. Investments in growth corresponded to 57% and were mainly concentrated on: (i) the development of ultra-deepwater production in the Santos Basin pre-salt (US$ 0.6 billion); (ii) development of new deepwater projects (US$ 0.2 billion); and (iii) exploratory investments in the pre-salt and post-salt (US$ 0.1 billion).
In the Refining, Transportation and Marketing segment, capex totaled US$ 0.3 billion in 3Q22, of which approximately 18% was related to growth. In Gas & Power, capex totaled US$ 0.1 billion in 3Q22, with approximately 10% related to growth.

In 3Q22, cash generated from operating activities reached R$ 63.2 billion and positive free cash flow totaled R$ 53.0 billion. This level of cash generation, along with our cash balances and the inflow of funds from the divestments of R$ 2.9 billion were used to: (a) pay remuneration to shareholders (R$ 111.0 billion) (b) prepay debt and amortize principal and interest due in the period (R$ 15.0 billion), (c) amortize lease liabilities (R$ 7.0 billion) and (d) make investments of R$ 10.2 billion.
** Free cash flow (FCF) is in accordance with the Shareholder Remuneration Policy, which is the result of the equation: FCF = net cash provided by operating activities less acquisitions of PP&E and intangible assets.

Debt
As of September 30, 2022, gross debt reached US$ 54.3 billion, a variation of 1.3% compared to June 30, 2022.
Average maturity shifted from 13 years on June 30, 2022, to 12 years on September 30, 2022, mainly because of the repurchase of long-term bonds in the international market, taking advantage of falling prices.
The gross debt/EBITDA ratio reached 0.85x on September 30, 2022, compared to 0.93x on June 30, 2022.
On September 30, 2022, net debt reached US$ 47.5 billion, as a result of the cash level optimization during 3Q22. The net debt/adjusted EBITDA ratio increased from 0.60x on June 30, 2022 to 0.75x on September 30, 2022.

In 3Q22, E&P gross profit was R$ 62.3 billion, a reduction of 8.1% when compared to 2Q22, mainly due to the lower Brent prices. Operating income was 25.3% lower, reflecting the drop in gross profit and the fact that the compensation from the co-participation agreements of Sépia and Atapu fields took place in 2Q22. We recorded a 2% reduction in the lifting cost without leasing and government take when compared to 2Q22 due to the 7% BRL depreciation against the USD, partially offset by higher expenses related to project integrity, mainly subsea inspections in the Tupi field.
In the pre-salt, there was a slight increase of 4% in lifting cost, mainly driven by the higher expenses related to the subsea inspections, partially offset by the BRL depreciation.
In the post-salt, there was a 4% reduction in the same indicator when compared to 2Q22, mainly due to the aforementioned FX effect in the period.
In onshore and shallow water assets, we observed lower lifting costs due to the effect of the BRL depreciation against USD and to the stoppage of production in Sergipe-Alagoas fields, with higher lifting costs, for operational safety procedures.
The reduction in government take per barrel in 3Q22 reflects the lower Brent prices in the period.

In 3Q22, gross profit from the Refining, Transportation and Marketing (RTM) segment was R$ 14.4 billion, a decrease of 43% when compared to 2Q22, due to the negative effect of inventories turnover, because of the decline in Brent prices, in contrast to the positive effect in 2Q22. Excluding the effect of inventory turnover (-R$ 8.4 billion in 3Q22 and +R$ 5.7 billion in 2Q22) gross profit would have been R$ 22.8 billion in 3Q22 and R$ 19.9 billion in 2Q22.
There were higher margins for oil products in the domestic market, mainly diesel, due to the high international margins, besides higher sales volumes for diesel, due to the typical seasonality, and gasoline, due to higher attractiveness compared to ethanol.
In 3Q22, the operating income was lower than in 2Q22, due to the lower gross profit, partially offset by lower expenses with lawsuits.
In 3Q22, refining cost per barrel in BRL increased by 25% when compared to 2Q22, due to the increase in expenses with inputs and maintenance for the upkeep and revitalization of the refineries, in addition to readjustments in personnel costs.

In 3Q22, gross profit was R$ 7.9 billion, an increase of 17.7% when compared to 2Q22, mainly reflecting the recovery in commercialization margins, resulting from: (a) the improvement in the natural gas sales portfolio, and; (b) the lower need for regasified LNG with the resumption of stoppages in production platforms throughout 2Q22.
In 3Q22, operating income was R$ 4.8 billion, 78.2% higher than in 2Q22, due to higher gross profit and lower operating expenses due to the capital gain related to the sale of Gaspetro.

Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is an indicator calculated as the net income for the period plus taxes on profit, net financial result, depreciation and amortization. Petrobras announces EBITDA, as authorized by CVM Resolution 156 of June 2022.
In order to reflect the management view regarding the formation of the company's current business results, EBITDA is also presented adjusted (Adjusted EBITDA) as a result of: results in equity-accounted investments; impairment, reclassification of comprehensive income (loss) due to the disposal of equity-accounted investments, results with co-participation agreement in production fields and gains/losses on disposal/write-offs of assets.
Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting the sum of the last twelve months (Last Twelve Months), also represents an alternative to the company's operating cash generation. This measure is used to calculate the Gross Debt and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA metric, helping to evaluate the company's leverage and liquidity.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not provided for in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and should not serve as a basis for comparison with those disclosed by other companies and should not be considered as a substitute for any other measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. These measures should be considered in conjunction with other measures and indicators for a better understanding of the company's performance and financial condition.

This measure is not defined under the International Financial Reporting Standards – IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash and cash equivalents computed in accordance with IFRS. It may not be comparable to adjusted cash and cash equivalents of other companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental measure to assess our liquidity and supports leverage management. Adjusted EBITDA - Adjusted EBITDA (a non-GAAP measure defined as net income plus net finance income (expense); income taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; results in equity-accounted investments; impairment of assets (reversals); results on disposal/write-offs of assets, remeasurement of investment retained with loss of control and reclassification of CTA; and results from co-participation agreements in bid areas).
