Forward-looking statements

This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including statements which may include: trends in commodity prices and currency exchange rates; demand for commodities; plans; strategies and objectives of management; closure or divestment of certain operations or facilities (including associated costs); anticipated production or construction commencement dates; capital costs and scheduling; productivity gains; cost reductions; operating costs and shortages of materials and skilled employees; anticipated productive lives of projects, mines and facilities; provisions and contingent liabilities; tax and regulatory developments.

Forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as 'intend', 'aim', 'project', 'anticipate', 'estimate', 'plan', 'believe', 'expect', 'may', 'should', 'will', 'continue', 'annualised' or similar words. These statements discuss future expectations concerning the results of operations or financial condition, or provide other forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements are not guarantees or predictions of future performance, and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors, many of which are beyond our control, and which may cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed in the statements contained in this presentation. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements.

For example, future revenues from our operations, projects or mines described in this presentation will be based, in part, upon the market price of the minerals, metals or petroleum produced, which may vary significantly from current levels. These variations, if materially adverse, may affect the timing or the feasibility of the development of a particular project, the expansion of certain facilities or mines, or the continuation of existing operations.

Other factors that may affect the actual construction or production commencement dates, costs or production output and anticipated lives of operations, mines or facilities include our ability to profitably produce and transport the minerals, petroleum and/or metals extracted to applicable markets; the impact of foreign currency exchange rates on the market prices of the minerals, petroleum or metals we produce; activities of government authorities in some of the countries where we are exploring or developing these projects, facilities or mines, including increases in taxes, changes in environmental and other regulations and political uncertainty; labour unrest; and other factors identified in the risk factors discussed in BHP's filings with the US Securities and Exchange Commission (the 'SEC') (including in Annual Reports on Form 20-F) which are available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov.

Except as required by applicable regulations or by law, the Group does not undertake any obligation to publicly update or review any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information or future events. Past performance cannot be relied on as a guide to future performance.

Non-IFRS and other financial information

BHP results are reported under International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). This presentation may also include certain non-IFRS (also referred to as alternate performance measures) and other measures including Underlying attributable profit, Underlying EBITDA (all references to EBITDA refer to Underlying EBITDA), Underlying EBIT, Adjusted effective tax rate, Controllable cash costs, Free cash flow, Gearing ratio, Net debt, Net operating assets, Operating assets free cash flow, Principal factors that affect Underlying EBITDA, Underlying basic earnings/(loss) per share, Underlying EBITDA margin and Underlying return on capital employed (ROCE) (all references to return on capital employed refer to Underlying return on capital employed), Underlying return on invested capital (ROIC). These measures are used internally by management to assess the performance of our business and segments, make decisions on the allocation of our resources and assess operational management. Non-IFRS and other measures have not been subject to audit or review and should not be considered as an indication of or alternative to an IFRS measure of profitability, financial performance or liquidity.

Presentation of data

Unless specified otherwise: value represents BHP share of risked discounted cash flows at consensus prices; copper equivalent production based on 2018 financial year average realised prices (as published in BHP's Results for the year ended 30 June 2018 on 21 August 2018); data from subsidiaries are shown on a 100 per cent basis and data from equity accounted investments and other operations are presented reflecting BHP's share; medium term refers to our five year plan. Queensland Coal comprises the BHP Billiton Mitsubishi Alliance (BMA) asset, jointly operated with Mitsubishi, and the BHP Billiton Mitsui Coal (BMC) asset, operated by BHP. Numbers presented may not add up precisely to the totals provided due to rounding. References to disciplined supply refer to lower levels of investment across the industry. All footnote content contained on slide 24.

No offer of securities

Nothing in this presentation should be construed as either an offer or a solicitation of an offer to buy or sell BHP securities in any jurisdiction, or be treated or relied upon as a recommendation or advice by BHP.

Reliance on third party information

The views expressed in this presentation contain information that has been derived from publicly available sources that have not been independently verified. No representation or warranty is made as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of the information. This presentation should not be relied upon as a recommendation or forecast by BHP.

BHP and its subsidiaries

In this presentation, the terms 'BHP', 'Group', 'BHP Group', 'we', 'us', 'our' and 'ourselves' are used to refer to BHP Group Limited, BHP Group Plc and, except where the context otherwise requires, their respective subsidiaries set out in note 13 'Related undertaking of the Group' in section 5.2 of BHP's Annual Report on Form 20-F. Notwithstanding that this presentation may include production, financial and other information from non-operated assets, non-operated assets are not included in the BHP Group and, as a result, statements regarding our operations, assets and values apply only to our operated assets unless otherwise stated.

Footnotes

1.Slides 3,8,14,15: ROCE: Represents annualised attributable profit after tax excluding exceptional items and net finance costs (after tax) divided by average capital employed. Capital employed is net assets before net debt. Presentation of future Return on Capital Employed (ROCE) does not constitute guidance and represents outcomes based on differing price and other scenarios; does not consider impact of IFRS 16 Leases which is still being assessed.

2.Slide 5: Social investment: Our voluntary social investment is calculated as 1% of the average of the previous three years'pre-tax profit.

3.Slide 8: Unit cost: Represents weighted average change in unit costs for Conventional Petroleum, Escondida, Western Australia Iron Ore and Queensland Coal between FY16 and FY19e.

4.Slide 8: Latent capacity projects completed: Spence Recovery Optimisation (Copper), Los Colorado Extension (Copper), Caval Ridge Southern Circuit (Coal) and Southern Mine Area (Copper). Latent capacity projects underway: WAIO 290 Mtpa (Iron Ore), Escondida Water Supply Extension (Copper) and West Barracouta (Petroleum).

5.Slide 8: Average returns: Returns as presented in prior Bank of America Merrill Lynch Conference presentations.

6.Slide 8: Future options completed: Greater Western Flank A (Petroleum), Longford Gas Conditioning Plant (Petroleum), Escondida Water Supply (Copper) and Greater Western Flank B (Petroleum). Future options underway: Mad Dog Phase 2 (Petroleum), Spence Growth Option (Copper) and Atlantis Phase 3 (Petroleum).

7.Slide 8: A successful well is an exploratory or extension well that is not a dry well or met its exploration or appraisal objective. Successful wells include wells in which hydrocarbons were encountered and the drilling or completion of which has

been suspended pending further drilling. Excludes wells that had mechanical issues (Burrokeet-1 and Wildling-1 in FY17 and Bongos-1 in FY19) where the opportunities were tested by a subsequent well. Successful wells: Shenzi North-2,

Ruby-3,LeClerc-1,Caicos-1,Wildling-2,Samurai-2,Victoria-1,Bongos-2,Trion-2DEL and Bélé-1. Unsuccessful wells: Burrokeet-2, Scimitar and Concepcion-1.

8.Slides 9,10:Medium-term unit cost guidance: Based on an exchange rate of AUD/USD 0.75 and USD/CLP 663. Unit costs are in nominal terms.

9.Slide 10: Strip ratio: Represents prime excluding rehandle (bcm) to product (tonnes).

10.Slide 11: Reduction in overhead costs: Represents potential reduction from FY18 in scope Global Function costs.

11.Slide 14: Represents unit cost reduction from FY19e to medium term.

12.Slide 14: Volume growth: Copper equivalent production based on FY18 average realised prices.

13.Slides 14,18,19: Returns (IRR) and value (NPV): Calculated at 2019 analyst consensus price forecasts (except Potash which are at CRU and Integer (Argus Media) price forecasts); ungeared,post-tax, nominal rates.

14.Slide 14: Risked value uplift: Represents total potential increase in base value from the addition of upside opportunities.

15.Slides 14,20: Petroleum exploration and appraisal NPV: Unrisked values at BHPlong-term price forecasts.

16.Slide 18: Timing: Representsramp-up to steady state.

17.Slide 19: Risk: Based on a BHP assessment of each project against defined quantified andnon-quantified risk metrics rated out of 5; 5 represents more risk.

18.Slide 19: Olympic Dam: IRR of12-25% represents different development options of varying levels of certainty. The upper end of range relates to investment in a potential lower capital and production development towards BFX.

19.Slide 19: Jansen: Based on CRU and Integer (Argus Media) price assumptions(2025-2035 average mid-case: CRU US$325/t and Integer (Argus Media) US$342/t, rebased). Jansen Stage 1 IRR of 14-15% reflects capex range and excludes remaining funded investment of ~US$0.3 billion for completion of the shafts and installation of essential service infrastructure and utilities. Jansen Stages 2-4 capex is presented in real terms (July 2019) - those options would be brownfield and predominately require surface infrastructure, with shorter construction schedules and less risk than Stage 1. The execution of future stages would be subject to our review of supply and demand fundamentals and successful competition for capital under our Capital Allocation Framework. However, we expect that each subsequent expansion would be approved for development after the previous expansion had reached 3 to 4 years of full production. The existing shafts are capable of supporting production for Stages 2-4.
