ACTIVITY REPORT

RUBIS GROUP

Business in the first half of 2021 continued to be affected by the impact of Covid-19, as vaccination campaigns were not harmonized globally and the appearance of variants led to new restrictions with different intensities according to the country.

The period was marked by the sharp rise in oil prices (+ 40%), the deterioration of the situation in Haiti, which nevertheless opened up new prospects, the excellent performance of the bitumen business and the continuous improvement of indicators in East Africa (volumes and profitability).

The Covid-19 effect measured in terms of loss of profit (EBITDA) compared to 2019 amounted to €ͳͺm. This estimate was calculated by comparing the volumes achieved in the first half of 2021 with those of the first half of 2019, on a like-for-like scope, in the main segments affected by the pandemic.

Against this backdrop, the 10% growth in EBIT compared to 2020 as well as the limited 12% decline compared to 2019 (a year spared by Covid) were good performances.

Net profit for the half year was down ʹ% on ʹͲʹͲ, impacted by the increase ȋ€mȌ in the accounting charge (non-cash) for the benefits granted to the Group's employees in the form of share-based payments.

As a reminder, the net income for the first half of 2020 was impacted by significant non-recurring items1. Consequently, the comparison of continuing activities with 2019 provides a more appropriate measure of performance, with a limited 11% decline (excluding Rubis Terminal's contribution and non-recurring items).

Cash flow amounted to €ʹ͵ͺm (+21%) and exceeded the record level reached in 2019 (excluding Rubis Terminal), attesting to the quality of its results.

1 Significant non-recurring items in the first half of 2020 mainly relate to the capital gain on the disposal of 45% of Rubis Terminal for €;m, the impairment of assets in (aiti for €ͺͼm, and an impairment of financial assets for €ͷͽm net of tax.

CONSOLIDATED RESULTS FOR THE SIX MONTHS TO JUNE 30, 2021

Retail & Marketing division

Europe, favored by its strong LPG positioning, recorded current operating income up 8% compared to 2020, returning to a level close to the pre-Covid-19 figures seen in 2019 ȋ€͵ͻmȌ.

The Caribbean region, marked by the deteriorated situation in Haiti and the temporary drop in margins, recorded a fall of 33% in EBIT to €͵͵m ȋ(ͳ ʹͲʹͲ: €Ͷͻm, (ͳ ʹͲͳͻ: €ͺmȌ, a level that was nevertheless stable compared to the second half of 2020.

Lastly, Africa reported an excellent performance with EB)T of €m ȋ+Ͷ% vs (ͳ ʹͲʹͲ ȋ€ͶmȌ and above pre-Covid levels ȋ(ͳ ʹͲͳͻ: €ͻmȌȌ, driven by ȋaȌ the robust development of the bitumen business in terms of volumes, both with expansion in new markets, and in terms of profits, (b) improving volumes and profitability in Kenya thanks to the commercial investments and rebranding, as well as (c) strong rebound observed in the Indian Ocean (Madagascar and Réunion Island) penalised by the stock effects in 2020.

The support & services division posted a record result for the period with EBIT up ͳͺ% to €ͳm thanks to the good margins generated by the trading and shipping activities and the strong development of the bitumen sector ȋcompared with €ͷʹm in (ͳ ʹͲʹͲ and €ͷͳm in (ͳ ʹͲͳͻȌ.

The Rubis Terminal JV successfully integrated Spanish storage leader Tepsa and again demonstrated resilient growth with a 41% increase in EBITDA2 to €ͳm ȋ+ͷ% on a pro forma3 basisȌ vs €Ͷ͵m in (ͳ ʹͲʹͲ and €Ͷͳm in (ͳ ʹͲͳͻ. The good performance of biofuels and chemicals, together with the increase in capacity in the ARA region and a high-capacity utilisation rate (95%), supported the growth in EBITDA. Overall, the share of net income from JV ȋ€ͳ.ʹmȌ was down after the effect of PPA (purchase price allocation) amortisations related to the 2020 acquisitions and higher financial charges in line with the existing debt structure.

2 Including JV Antwerp at 50 %.

3 Pro-forma including Tepsa as of 01/01/2020.

CSR – highlights

RETAIL & MARKETING DIVISION

The Retail & Marketing division includes all fuel distribution activities (service station networks), liquefied gas, bitumen, commercial, aviation and marine fuels and lubricants in three geographical areas: Europe, the Caribbean and Africa.

Prices of petroleum products

Diesel prices rose 40% compared to the first half of 2020, with an almost continuous increase since the collapse of prices in the first quarter of 2020. This configuration did not prevent the unit margin from remaining at a high level (+2% compared to H1 2020).

General activity was dominated by the depressive effect of Covid-19, as the effect of vaccination campaigns was not uniform across countries.

In total, volumes were up 7% compared to 2020, and down 6%, on a like-for-like scope, compared to 2019. The table below shows the robust resistance of the LPG and the retail network segments (70% of the branch gross profit) to impacts from Covid-19, while aviation remains particularly exposed. Whereas the bitumen sector saw a very strong increase in sales.

The commercial positioning in Europe, strongly focused on LPG, made it possible to withstand the Covid-19 crisis with volumes and margins up 9% and 4% respectively compared to 2020 and unit margins higher than in 2019, despite the sharp increase in supply prices.

RESULTS OF THE CARIBBEAN SUBGROUP AS OF JUNE 30, 2021

A total of 19 island facilities distribute fuel locally (400 gas stations, aviation, commercial, LPG, lubricants and bitumen).

The price mechanism administered in the region applies changes in supply prices with a lag from a few weeks to two months. The sharp steady increase in supply prices exacerbated the consequence of this, which are reflected in a decline in margins, which should be reabsorbed during the second half of the year.

The 33% decrease in EBIT was only 16% excluding Haiti, indicating that the island was the main source of the deterioration. However, the overall results for the first half show stability compared to the second half of 2020.

In Haiti, since the violent political crisis coupled with an earthquake in July, the new authorities seem to be launching a new political deal intended to bring greater stability, in an environment garnering increased attention from the US administration and international donors.

RESULTS OF THE AFRICA SUBGROUP AS OF JUNE 30, 2021

The continent, which had been strongly affected by the impact of Covid-19 in 2020, saw its situation improve significantly (EBIT: +64%), due mainly to:

  • the strong progress of the bitumen sector in retail distribution, with market share gains and infrastructure developments in new territories in West Africa;
  • the acceleration of rebranding investments in Kenya, with a rapid positive impact on sales in service stations and the effects of new management, contributing to the almost tripling of current operating income;
  • the Indian Ocean region (Madagascar and Réunion), which was heavily penalized in 2020 by negative inventory effects, which recorded a significant reversal over the period.

Investments 21 39 29

RESULTS OF THE SUPPORT &SERVICES DIVISION AS OF JUNE 30, 2021

This subgroup includes Rubis Énergie's supply tools for petroleum products and bitumen:

  • the 71% interest in the refinery in the French Antilles (SARA);
  • the trading-supply activity in the Caribbean (Barbados) and Africa/Middle East, with operational headquarters in Dubai;
  • in support-logistics, the shipping activity ȋͳͶ vesselsȌ and Dzstorage and pipedz in Madagascar.

Sales revenue was down by 29%, reflecting lower volumes (Covid effect) largely offset by a more favorable product mix.

The intensity of the Trading activity results in part from the trade-offs made with the distribution activity. In bitumen, priority was thus given to the use of vessels for downstream activity (distribution) over the half-year, allocating less capacity to trading operations. This resulted in a reduction in the volumes handled in Support & Services.

The refinery results are still governed by the decree setting the profitability at 9% of the equity employed.

In total, unit margins generated by trading-shipping were up sharply, reaching a record EBIT of €ͳm (+18%).

CONTRIBUTION OF THE RUBIS TERMINAL JV

In the Covid environment, the Rubis Terminal JV demonstrated strong resilience, recording a further increase in revenue of 4% (pro forma) and up by 38.5% including the contribution of Tepsa (Spain) and 50% of the Antwerp JV.

All countries with the exception of Turkey (which represents less than 10% of sales revenue) posted good growth in H1 2021. France (+1%) was supported by the recovery in Corsica after lockdown and new contracts. The ARA zone including the Antwerp JV (+16%) benefited from new capacities and a high utilization rate. Turkey is a region whose results remain volatile and exposed to contango; the market moving into backwardation, its revenues fell by 16%.

In terms of segments, petroleum products and biofuels posted pro forma growth of 5%, thanks to France (Corsica) and double-digit growth in biofuels in Spain. Chemicals recorded a 5% increase in sales revenue thanks to the increase in capacity in the ARA zone and despite the end of certain contracts in France. Agrifood products were down by 11%, mainly due to the decline in fertilizer revenues.

Despite the decline in revenue from contango in 2020, particularly for Turkey, EBITDA increased by 41% pro forma to €ͳm.

Following the sale by Rubis of 45% of share capital of Rubis Terminal and the creation of the JV with I Squared, the capital structure of the JV changed with a significantly higher financial leverage. As a result, financial expenses almost tripled to reach €ʹͲm in H1 2021. This, together with the amortization of the revalued assets related to the acquisition of Tepsa ȋ€͵m in H1 2021), led to a reduction in net income to €ͳm, compared to €ͳͳm in H1 2020. It is important to note that Rubis Terminal was fully consolidated over the first four months of 2020, then consolidated under the equity method from April 30, 2020.

The free cash flow after tax, financial expenses and maintenance investment amounted to €ͶͲ/ͷͲm on an annual basis, which, compared to total shareholders' equity of €ͷͺm, gives a cash return of 9%.

OUTLOOK FOR THE SECOND HALF OF 2021

The half-year financial statements show good growth in activity and results, particularly in regions that have seen an easing of restrictions due to Covid-19.

While a more rapid return to normal had initially been anticipated, the Group is confident that the current growth momentum will be maintained; its medium and long-term growth drivers remaining intact thanks to its product and geographical diversification, and the balance of its midstream/downstream activities and the strong development potential of East Africa, the bitumen sector and LPG as a transition energy.

Benefiting from a solid financial position, the Group will continue to study development projects, both organic and acquisitions.

DESCRIPTION OF THE MAIN RISKS AND CONTINGENCIES FOR THE REMAINING SIX MONTHS OF THE YEAR

The main risks and contingencies to which the Group could be exposed are described in Chapter ͵ DzRisk Factors, )nternal Control and )nsurancedz of the ʹͲʹͲ Universal Registration Document.

Other than the uncertainties linked to the development of the Covid-19 pandemic and the subsequent effects of any government measures, to the best of Rubis' knowledge, there are no extraordinary items, litigation, risks or off-balance sheet commitments liable to have a significant impact on the financial position, the assets and liabilities, the income or the businesses of the Group.

POST-BALANCE SHEET EVENTS

1. ACCOUNTING POLICES

The Group's financial statements for the first half of ʹͲʹͳ were finalized by the Management Board on September 8, 2021, and reviewed by the Supervisory Board on September 9, 2021.

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the first half of 2021 of Rubis and its subsidiaries ȋthe GroupȌ were prepared in accordance with )AS ͵Ͷ Dz)nterim Financial Reporting.dz The condensed interim consolidated financial statements do not include all of the information required under )FRS, and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated annual financial statements published for the year ended December 31, 2020. The accounting policies applied in the preparation of the condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2021 are identical to those applied for the consolidated annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020 except for the application of new standards applicable for financial periods open from January 1, 2021.

The main areas of judgment and estimates used in the preparation of the condensed interim financial statements are identical to those described in note 2 to the 2020 consolidated financial statements.

The Group experiences seasonal changes in its business activities that can, from one six-month period to another, affect the level of revenue and operating income. As such, half-year results are not necessarily indicative of what may be expected for the full year in 2021.

Standards, interpretations and amendments applicable as of January 1, 2021

The following standards, interpretations and amendments, published in the Official Journal of the European Union as of the closing date, were applied for the first time in 2021:

Standard/Interpretation Date of mandatory
application
Benchmark interest rate reform (IBOR) – Amendments to IFRS 9, IAS 39, IFRS 7, IFRS 4 and January 1, 2021
phase 2 IFRS 16

The first-time application of these standards, interpretations and amendments did not have a material impact on the Group's financial statements.

The Group is currently examining two IFRS IC decisions:

  • Publication in March 2021 of a decision relating to IAS 38 Intangible Assets concerning recognition of configuration or customization costs in a cloud computing arrangement as part of a Software as a Service contract.
  • Publication in April 2021 of a decision relating to IAS 19 Employee Benefits concerning the attribution of benefits to periods of service.

Standards, interpretations and amendments for which early application may be chosen

The Group has not opted for the early adoption of the standards, interpretations and amendments whose application is not mandatory as of June 30, 2021 or which have not yet been adopted by the European Union.

Specific information on the Covid-19 pandemic

The Group's performance in the first half of ʹͲʹͳ was penalized by Covid-19, which continued to affect aviation, network and commercial sales in particular, as well as LPG to a lesser extent.

The impact on reported gross operating profit (EBITDA) at June 30, 2021 was estimated at -€ͳ8m. This estimate was calculated by comparing the volumes achieved in the first half of 2021 with those of the first half of 2019 in the main segments affected by the pandemic, independently of the growth initially forecast in the business plans. For the record, the impact published on June 30, 2020 amounted to -€45m.

As in 2020, the JV Rubis Terminal showed strong resistance throughout the half-year.

The Group did not make use of government support schemes in any of its subsidiaries.

2. SCOPE OF CONSOLIDATION AS OF JUNE 30, 2021

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements for the six months ended June 30, 2021 include the Rubis financial statements and those of its subsidiaries listed in note 18.

3. CHANGES IN THE SCOPE OF CONSOLIDATION

Only the most material transactions are set out below.

3.2. DISPOSAL OF 45% OF RUBIS TERMINAL (2020 TRANSACTION)

Following this transaction, the Group still held nearly 55% of the share capital of Rubis Terminal.

The governance arrangements set out in the shareholders' agreement entered into with ) Squared Capital involve joint control. The Group's interest in the Rubis Terminal joint venture has been accounted for using the equity method since April 30, 2020.

8. GOODWILL AND INTANGIBLE ASSETS

8.1. GOODWILL

Goodwill is subject to an impairment test at least once per year, or more frequently if there are indications of a loss in value, in accordance with the requirements of )AS ͵ Dz)mpairment of Assets.dz The impairment test consists of comparing the recoverable value and net book value of the Cash-Generating Unit (CGU) or group of CGUs, including goodwill. The recoverable value is the higher of fair value minus disposal costs and value in use. When the recoverable value is lower than the net book value of the asset (or group of assets), impairment, corresponding to the difference, is recorded in the income statement.

An impairment loss of €Ͷm was recognized as of June 30, 2020, reflecting changes in the political and economic environment specific to (aiti, which could have a lasting impact on the Group's operating conditions in that country.

During the first half of 2021, in a political and economic environment that showed no improvement, the economic performance of activities in Haiti was below that initially expected. Management considered that this situation could constitute an indication of impairment on June 30, 2021. An impairment test was therefore performed on that date. The recoverable value was determined on the basis of the value in use calculation. The calculation of the value in use was based on cash flow projections using a revised strategic business plan approved in June 2021 by Management covering a period of six years. The main assumptions made concern volumes and unit margins. Cash flows beyond the six-year period were extrapolated at a growth rate of 2.25%.

The discount rate used on June 30, 2021 (9.9%) was based on the concept of the weighted average cost of capital (WACC), and reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and risks specific to the CGU.

No impairment losses were observed as of June 30, 2021.

A 1-point increase in the discount rate or a 1-point reduction in the growth rate would not result in the impairment of goodwill as of June 30, 2021.

Similarly, a 5% reduction in discounted future cash flows would not call into question the findings of the tests as of June 30, 2021.

Finally, the one-year delay in the assumptions made by the Group in the business plan does not call into question the conclusions of the test on June 30, 2021. The value in use of the CGU tested would remain higher than its net book value.

13.3. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENT LIABILITIES (EXCLUDING PROVISIONS)

Rubis SCA and its subsidiaries are subject to tax audits and adjustments are sometimes proposed. The Group considers that it has solid means of defense, that it implements all legal procedures at its disposal to prevent any unfavorable outcomes and that it has set aside all the provisions necessary to cover disbursements deemed probable. The financial consequences of these tax assessments are recognized as liabilities for the amounts notified and accepted or considered uncertain and presenting a probable outflow of resources that can be reliably determined.

The Group periodically reviews its estimate of these risks in the light of changes in audits and litigation, and believes that none of the audits currently underway will have a material impact on its financial position or cash.

Provisions for clean-up and asset renovation 30,443 32,037
TOTAL 154,675 142,893

Provisions for contingencies and expenses include:

  • the Group's obligations in terms of collecting energy-saving certificates. These provisions are recognized throughout the three-year period currently in progress (2018-2020 extended to 2021);
  • a provision relating to the Rubis Group's obligation to bring its acquisitions under its own banner.
  • provisions relating to risks or disputes that could potentially lead to action being taken against the Rubis Group.

These items are assessed using estimates of the amounts that may be needed to settle any related obligation, and by including the probabilities of the various scenarios envisaged taking place.

Provisions for clean-up and the replacement of fixed assets are compliant with IAS 16. The Group has estimated its clean-up and dismantling costs largely based on the findings of outside consultants. In compliance with IAS 16, the present value of these expenses was incorporated into the cost of the corresponding facilities.

Rubis Antilles Guyane holds a minority interest in five economic interest groupings (EIG) in the French Antilles; as these entities are not material, they are not consolidated.

Rubis Energia Portugal currently holds non-material and non-consolidated investments.

In view of the political and monetary problems in Burundi, the Group has decided since 2019 not to consolidate Kobil Burundi due to the lack of effective control over this activity. The corresponding shares were fully impaired. The political and monetary situation did not improve in fiscal year 2021.

STATUTORY AUD)TORS' REVIEW REPORT ON THE INTERIM FINANCIAL INFORMATION

For the period from January 1 to June 30, 2021

This is a free translation into English of the statutory auditors' review report on the interim financial information issued in French and is provided solely for the convenience of English-speaking users. This report includes information relating to the specific verification of information given in the Group's half-year management report. This report should be read in conjunction with, and construed in accordance with, French law and professional standards applicable in France

To the Shareholders,

)n compliance with the assignment entrusted to us by Shareholders' Annual General Meeting and in accordance with the requirements of article L. 451-1-2 III of the French Monetary and Financial Code ȋDzCode monétaire et financierdzȌ, we hereby report to you on:

  • the review of the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements of Rubis, for the period from January 1 to June 30, 2021;
  • the verification of the information presented in the half-year management report.

Due to the global crisis related to the Covid-19 pandemic, the condensed interim consolidated financial statements of this period have been prepared and reviewed under specific conditions. Indeed, this crisis and the exceptional measures taken in the context of the state of sanitary emergency have had numerous consequences for companies, particularly on their operations and their financing, and have led to greater uncertainties on their future prospects. Those measures, such as travel restrictions and remote working, have also had an impact on the companies' internal organization and the performance of our procedures.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements are the responsibility of the Management Board. Our role is to express a conclusion on these financial statements based on our review.

I. Conclusion on the financial statements

We conducted our review in accordance with professional standards applicable in France. A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with professional standards applicable in France and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying condensed interim consolidated financial statements are not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34- standard of the IFRSs as adopted by the European Union applicable to interim financial information.

II. Specific verification

We have also verified the information presented in the half-year management report on the condensed interim consolidated financial statements subject to our review.

We have no matters to report as to its fair presentation and consistency with the condensed halfyear consolidated financial statements.
