Commenting the results for 9M 2015, I.I. Sechin, Chairman of Rosneft Management Board, said:

“Despite of challenging economic environment, the Company keeps improving its efficiency. This is demonstrated by keeping operating costs in rouble terms at sustainable level in conditions of 12.0% increase in industry prices. Preserving the cost base and efficient risk management contributed to an increase in profits for 9M 2015 compared to 9M 2014 despite oil price drop. The Company achieved a structural improvement in the credit profile, while the debt burden was reduced to the target level.”

Financial performance

Revenue

In Q3 2015 revenue amounted to RUB 1,266 bln (USD 20.6 bln), declining by 3.5% compared to Q2 2015 due to lower crude oil prices in RUB terms by 4.4%. The main compensating factors were an increase in domestic petroleum products sales volumes by 9.6% and in crude oil export to non - CIS markets by 2.0%.

In 9M 2015 revenue amounted to RUB 3,866 bln (USD 66.8 bln), decreasing by 7.8% compared to 9M 2014. Despite deteriorating market environment the Company increased sales volume of crude oil and oil products (+2.0%), sales of gas (+5.6%) and improved output of light oil products to 55.3%. Thus, Rosneft managed to reduce the negative impact of decline in crude oil prices by 12.9% in RUB terms and by 48.0% in USD terms.

Adjusted EBITDA1

Adjusted earnings before interests, tax and depreciation (EBITDA) was down by 18.1% to RUB 267 bln (USD 4.2 bln) due to a negative effect of export duty lag and an increase in export duty rate in RUB terms. Adjusted EBITDA margin reached 21.1% in Q3 2015. In deteriorating macroeconomic environment the downstream segment managed to improve profitability compared to Q2 2015 on the back of 8,4% increase in yield of Euro 4/5 motor fuels. The upstream segment keeps demonstrating effective control over operating expenses. In Q3 2015 lifting costs decreased by 1.3% q/q to 156 RUB/boe (2.5 USD/boe). Over the past three quarters the Company maintained low operating expenses per boe in RUB terms in conditions of elevated inflation levels.

Adjusted EBITDA in RUB terms increased by 1.0% up to RUB 879 bln despite of lower crude oil prices by 12.9% in RUB terms and a negative effect from tax maneuver at RUB 64 bln.

Net income

In Q3 2015 net income amounted to RUB 113 bln (USD 1.8 bln). In 9M 2015 net income reached RUB 303 bln, increasing by 16.1% compared to 9M 2014 despite the deteriorating macroeconomic environment.

Free cash flow

In Q3 2015 unit capital expenditures amounted to 254 RUB/boe (4 USD/boe). Thanks to the management efforts to maximize profits and efficient management of working capital adjusted free cash flow was at RUB 177 bln for Q3 2015. At this stage sustainable cash flow generation ensures payment of dividends, decreasing financial leverage and financing the investment program.

Debt burden

Gross debt decreased by 21.5% since the beginning of the year in USD terms and amounted to USD 47.5 bln as of the end of Q3 2015 due to repayment of a substantial part of short-term debt. A structural improvement in the credit profile of the Company was achieved mainly by generating stable free cash flows and receiving funds under long-term crude oil supply agreements for the last quarters.
