Note: In March 2025, the Borealis Group, excluding Borouge investments, was reclassified to "held for sale" and in addition classifies as "discontinued operations." Since reclassification, the non-current assets are no longer depreciated or amortized and investments are no longer accounted for according to the equity method. If not mentioned otherwise, all indicators in the table above also include items classified as "held for sale" and "discontinued operations."

Adjusted for special items and CCS effects; further information can be found below the table >Reconciliation of clean CCS Operating Result to reported Operating Result
Special items from equity-accounted companies and temporary effects from commodity hedging for material transactions are included.
Organic free cash flow is cash flow from operating activities and cash flow from investing activities excluding disposals and material inorganic cash flow components.
Capital expenditure including acquisitions
Organic capital expenditure is defined as capital expenditure including capitalized E&A expenditure and excluding acquisitions and contingent considerations.
Calculated as a 12-month rolling average per 1 mn hours worked
contribution from Energy, which was partially offset by a significantly higher result in Fuels and Chemicals. The clean Operating Result of the Energy segment was markedly lower at EUR 586 mn (Q4/24: EUR 1,241 mn). In Fuels, the clean CCS Operating Result more than tripled to EUR 346 mn (Q4/24: EUR 112 mn), while the contribution from Chemicals increased significantly to EUR 236 mn (Q4/24: EUR 81 mn). The consolidation line was EUR 8 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR -42 mn).
The clean CCS Group tax rate decreased to 36% (Q4/24: 50%), mainly due to a lower share in the overall Group profits of certain companies in the Energy segment that are located in countries with a high tax regime, as well as a higher contribution from at-equity accounted investments to the Group profit. Clean CCS net income grew to
EUR 731 mn (Q4/24: EUR 701 mn). The clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders of the parent
amounted to EUR 548 mn (Q4/24: EUR 555 mn). Clean CCS Earnings Per Share were EUR 1.68 (Q4/24: EUR 1.70).
Net special items amounted to EUR -702 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR -367 mn) and were mainly driven by non-cash net impairment charges of E&P assets and an impairment of other financial assets related to abandonment obligations in Romania. CCS effects of EUR -52 mn were recorded in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR -26 mn). The Operating Result from continuing operations decreased significantly to EUR 333 mn (Q4/24: EUR 1,020 mn).
The net financial result amounted to EUR -24 mn (Q4/24: EUR 29 mn). The prior-year quarter was impacted by a more favorable foreign exchange result. The increase in the Group tax rate from continuing operations to 78% (Q4/24: 56%) was mainly triggered by a higher share in the overall Group profits of certain Energy segment
companies located in countries with a high tax regime in connection with the relatively low Group profit before tax, which was negatively impacted by the impairment of E&P assets and other financial assets. Additionally, effective tax rate was affected by the reassessment of the deferred tax asset position of the Austrian tax group. Net income declined to EUR 113 mn (Q4/24: EUR 377 mn) and net income attributable to stockholders of the parent went down to EUR 90 mn (Q4/24: EUR 301 mn). Earnings Per Share decreased to EUR 0.28 (Q4/24: EUR 0.92).
The leverage ratio, defined as (net debt including leases) / (equity + net debt including leases), was 14% as of
December 31, 2025 (December 31, 2024: 12%). For further information on the leverage ratio, please see the section
>Financial liabilities of the preliminary condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
In Q4/25, total capital expenditure decreased to EUR 1,146 mn (Q4/24: EUR 1,322 mn) due to lower investments in Fuels and Chemicals. Organic capital expenditure declined by 10% to EUR 1,144 mn (Q4/24: EUR 1,274 mn) due to lower investments in Fuels and Chemicals, though these were partially offset by higher investments in Energy.
January to December 2025 compared to January to December 2024 Consolidated sales revenues from continuing operations decreased by 7% to EUR 24,308 mn, mainly due to lower sales volumes from contracts with customers in the Gas Marketing & Power business of the Energy segment. The clean CCS Operating Result declined from EUR 5,141 mn in 2024 to EUR 4,607 mn because of lower performance in Energy, which was partly compensated for by a better result in Fuels and a significantly higher contribution from Chemicals. The clean Operating Result of Energy decreased to EUR 2,707 mn (2024: EUR 3,810 mn), while the clean CCS Operating Result of Fuels increased to EUR 1,116 mn (2024: EUR 927 mn). In Chemicals, the clean Operating Result rose considerably to EUR 784 mn (2024: EUR 459 mn). The consolidation line was EUR 75 mn in 2025 (2024: EUR 19 mn).The clean CCS Group tax rate remained relatively stable at 43% (2024: 45%). The clean CCS net income
decreased to EUR 2,649 mn (2024: EUR 2,814 mn). The clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders of the parent amounted to EUR 1,941 mn (2024: EUR 2,090 mn). Clean CCS Earnings Per Share were EUR 5.94 (2024: EUR 6.39).
Net special items amounted to EUR -924 mn in 2025 (2024: EUR -764 mn) and were mainly driven by non-cash net impairment charges of E&P assets and an impairment of other financial assets related to abandonment obligations
in Romania. In 2024, net special items were mainly related to asset impairments in the E&P business and temporary valuation effects. CCS effects of EUR -239 mn were recorded in 2025 as a consequence of declining crude oil prices (2024: EUR -123 mn). The Operating Result from continuing operations declined to EUR 3,110 mn (2024:
EUR 4,202 mn).
The net financial result amounted to EUR -63 mn (2024: EUR -103 mn). The deviation was mainly due to higher interest income following a positive outcome from litigation in Romania, partly offset by an unfavorable foreign exchange result. The Group tax rate from continuing operations increased to 60% (2024: 53%), mainly due to the
reassessment of the deferred tax asset position of the Austrian tax group (for further details, see chapter "Selected notes to the preliminary condensed consolidated financial statements," section >OMV and ADNOC to establish a new Polyolefins Joint Venture). Additionally, the increase in the effective tax rate was triggered by a higher share in the overall Group profits of certain Energy segment companies located in countries with a high tax regime. Net
income declined to EUR 1,520 mn (2024: EUR 2,024 mn) and net income attributable to stockholders of the parentwent down to EUR 1,017 mn (2024: EUR 1,389 mn). Earnings Per Share decreased to EUR 3.11 (2024: EUR 4.25).
Total capital expenditure declined to EUR 3,798 mn (2024: EUR 4,101 mn), as the previous year was impacted by the acquisition of filling stations in Austria and Slovakia, renewable power projects in Romania, and a mechanical recycling company in Bulgaria. Organic capital expenditure increased slightly to EUR 3,739 mn (2024:
EUR 3,710 mn) due to larger investments in Energy and Fuels, partly offset by lower investments in Chemicals.

Q4/25 compared to Q4/24
Adjusted for special items and CCS effects
The category "other" includes, for example: temporary commodity hedging effects and associated transactions, donations, and provisions.
The disclosure of special items is considered appropriate in order to facilitate the analysis of the ordinary business performance. To reflect comparable figures, certain items affecting the result are added back or deducted. These items can be divided into four subcategories: personnel restructuring, unscheduled depreciation and write-ups, asset disposals, and other.
In Q4/25, the category "other" was mainly affected by an impairment of other financial assets related to abandonment obligations, following the agreed principles between OMV Petrom and the Romanian state. In Q4/24, the category "other" was mostly impacted by FX recycling related to an E&P disposal.
In 2025, the category "other" was mainly affected by an impairment of other financial assets related to abandonment obligations, following the agreed principles between OMV Petrom and the Romanian state. In 2024, the category "other" was mostly impacted by temporary valuation effects.
Furthermore, to enable effective performance management in an environment of volatile prices and comparability with peers, the Current Cost of Supply (CCS) effect is eliminated from the operating result. The CCS effect, also called inventory holding gains and losses, is the difference between the cost of sales calculated using the current cost of supply and the cost of sales calculated using the weighted average method after adjusting for any changes
in valuation allowances. In volatile energy markets, measurement of the costs of petroleum products sold based on historical values (e.g., weighted average cost) can have distorting effects on reported results. This performance
measurement enhances the transparency of results and is commonly used in the oil industry. OMV therefore publishes this measurement in addition to the Operating Result determined in accordance with IFRS.

Q4/25 compared to Q4/24
Organic free cash flow before dividends is cash flow from operating activities and cash flow from investing activities excluding disposals and material inorganic cash flow components (e.g., acquisitions).
In Q4/25, cash flow from operating activities excluding net working capital effects amounted to EUR 821 mn (Q4/24: EUR 1,168 mn), reflecting a lower contribution from Energy, partly offset by lower tax payments in Q4/25 compared to Q4/24. Additionally, Q4/24 was positively impacted by a successful arbitration decision related to Gazprom supply disruptions in Germany in 2022. Net working capital effects generated a cash inflow of
EUR 860 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: outflow of EUR -138 mn), mostly stemming from the Chemicals and Fuels segments being impacted by lower inventory levels. As a result, cash flow from operating activities totaled EUR 1,681 mn in Q4/25 compared to EUR 1,030 mn in Q4/24.
Cash flow from investing activities showed an outflow of EUR -785 mn compared to EUR -376 mn in Q4/24. Q4/24 was positively impacted by inflows of EUR 715 mn from the successful divestment of OMV's 50% share in SapuraOMV, while Q4/25 contained inflows of EUR 158 mn from the transfer of shareholder loans in relation to Borouge 4 LLC to ADNOC's subsidiary MPP Holdings GmbH,1 as well as positive impacts from the redemption of short-term financial investments.
Free cash flow amounted to EUR 896 mn (Q4/24: EUR 654 mn). Cash flow from financing activities recorded an inflow of EUR 259 mn compared to an outflow of EUR -372 mn in Q4/24. Q4/25 contained the issuance of bonds totaling EUR 1 bn, partly offset by higher repayments of debt. Free cash flow after dividends totaled EUR 771 mn (Q4/24: EUR 360 mn). Organic free cash flow before dividends amounted to EUR 735 mn (Q4/24: EUR 15 mn). January to December 2025 compared to January to December 2024In 2025, cash flow from operating activities excluding net working capital effects decreased to EUR 4,494 mn (2024: EUR 5,308 mn), amongst other impacts reflecting a lower contribution from E&P business and the
deconsolidation of SapuraOMV in December 2024. This was partly offset by lower income taxes paid in 2025 compared to 2024 and solidarity contribution payments in Romania in 2024. Net working capital effects were
positive and came in at EUR 721 mn (2024: EUR 148 mn), impacted by lower inventory levels. As a result, cash flow from operating activities totaled EUR 5,215 mn (2024: EUR 5,456 mn).
Cash flow from investing activities showed an outflow of EUR -2,754 mn in 2025, compared to EUR -3,152 mn in 2024. Cash flow from investing activities in 2025 was positively impacted by the divestment of a 5% stake in the Ghasha concession, located in the United Arab Emirates, and a loan repayment by Bayport Polymers LLC. In 2024, cash flow from investing activities included inflows of EUR 766 mn from the successful divestment of OMV's 50% share in SapuraOMV. Free cash flow totaled EUR 2,461 mn (2024: EUR 2,304 mn). Cash flow from financing activities showed an outflow of EUR -2,834 mn compared to EUR -3,132 mn in 2024. In 2025, despite an increase in debt repayments, there was also a higher level of bond issuance. Additionally, dividend payments were lower compared to 2024.Renamed XRG Austria GmbH in January 2026
Risk management
As an international integrated energy, fuels, and chemicals company with operations extending from hydrocarbon exploration and production through to refining, marketing, and trading of mineral oil products, chemical products, and natural gas, OMV is exposed to a variety of risks, including market risks, financial risks, operational risks, and strategic risks. A detailed description of these risks and associated risk management activities can be found in the
/ 2024 Annual Report.
The main uncertainties that can influence the OMV Group's performance are commodity price risks, foreign
exchange risks, operational risks, and political and regulatory risks. Commodity price risk is monitored continuously and appropriate protective measures with respect to cash flow are taken, if required. The inherent exposure to
safety and environmental risks is monitored through HSSE (Health, Safety, Security, and Environment) and risk management programs, which have a clear commitment to keeping OMV's risks in line with industry standards.
While recent increases in US tariffs have had only a limited direct impact on OMV, we anticipate potential negative effects on economic growth and changing trade flows, which could potentially have a detrimental impact on both demand and price levels in the markets in which OMV operates. OMV has established a dedicated task force to
analyze and assess changes in relevant trade relations and product flows, and to address and mitigate the resulting impact on OMV's business activities.
OMV regularly assesses the potential risks associated with the ongoing Russian war against Ukraine, including the possible impact of additional sanctions, changes in Russian commodity flows, disruptions to global supply chains, and the continuing threat of cyberattacks on its business activities.
The recent military conflict and tensions in the Middle East have led to significant volatility in international oil and gas markets, with the market environment remaining uncertain. OMV is also closely monitoring developments in the wider MENA region, in particular potential effects on oil and gas infrastructure, logistics, and commodity prices.
OMV assesses potential impacts on supply security, logistics, and price developments to ensure business continuity and the reliable supply to our customers.
Additionally, increasing tensions between China and Taiwan in the South China Sea and between the USA and Venezuela could impact global trade routes and supply security. The introduction of more sanctions against certain countries (such as Venezuela, India, or China) could lead to restrictions on international trade and increased
regulatory risks. Geoeconomic fragmentation, trade wars, and changes in global supply chains could lead to cost increases for OMV as well as volatile commodity prices. This could also negatively impact economic growth, and, consequently, demand for OMV's products. Persistently low economic activity, particularly in Europe, could further delay the recovery of the chemicals industry and negatively affect OMV's financial performance in the Chemicals segment.
The credit quality of OMV's counterparty portfolio could also be negatively influenced by the risk factors mentioned above. OMV has therefore implemented closer monitoring of its counterparty exposures as part of its credit risk
management processes.
Furthermore, the increase in geopolitically motivated attacks, whether physical or cyber-based (hybrid warfare), poses a growing threat to OMV's IT and OT infrastructure and operational security. This threat landscape requires permanent surveillance of the security perimeters that have been implemented and targeted countermeasures to maintain security maturity at an adequate level.
Overall, the consequences of increasing geopolitical volatility, implementation of the European Green Deal and resulting regulatory measures, and other ongoing economic disruptions cannot be reliably estimated at this stage. From today's perspective, however, we assume that, based on the measures listed above, the Company's ability to continue its business operations is not materially affected.
Outlook 2026
As a result of the binding agreement between OMV and ADNOC for the combination of Borouge and Borealis into Borouge Group International and the acquisition of Nova Chemicals, with completion expected in Q1/26, the outlook for 2026 excludes all Borealis-related effects.

Including Gas Marketing Western Europe and Gas & Power Eastern Europe
Capital expenditure including acquisitions
Does not include Gas Marketing & Power
The average realized gas price is converted into MWh using a standardized calorific value across the portfolio of 10.8 MWh for 1,000 cubic meters of natural gas.
The clean Operating Result decreased significantly to EUR 586 mn, mainly due to a lower result in Exploration & Production (E&P). This was primarily a consequence of substantial negative market effects, as well as lower sales volumes and the missing contribution from the divested Malaysian assets (SapuraOMV).
Hydrocarbon production declined by 11% to 300 kboe/d, which was predominantly attributable to the divestment of SapuraOMV and natural decline.
The Gas Marketing & Power result decreased significantly to EUR 116 mn. An improved Gas & Power Eastern Europe result was unable to offset a weaker result in Gas Marketing Western Europe as Q4/24 was positively impacted by an arbitration award.
Compared to Q3/25, the Platts Dated Brent benchmark weakened by more than USD 5/bbl in Q4/25, representing a decline of close to 8%. Weak short-term demand outlooks from leading agencies and rising OPEC+ output
continued to weigh on market sentiment. The ceasefire in Gaza and renewed peace talks regarding the Russia-Ukraine conflict reduced the geopolitical risk premium. Partly countering these effects were elevated refinery margins and new US sanctions on major Russian oil exporters, which imposed a price floor on crude prices.
Compared to the prior-year quarter, the average Brent price was some 15% lower at USD 64/bbl (Q4/24:
USD 75/bbl). In a year-on-year comparison, the Group's quarterly average realized crude oil price declined by 13% from USD 72/bbl to USD 62/bbl, and thus developed better than the Brent benchmark. In the European gas sector, prices declined by almost 10% in Q4/25 compared to Q3/25 despite the start of the winter season and storage levels being significantly below the average of the past three years. Colder weather resulted in an uptick in gas
demand. However, this was easily met as the ample supply of LNG into the European market at relatively low prices drove wholesale levels down to a 30-month low, with less strict regional storage mandates compared to the last
couple of years. The THE gas price averaged EUR 31/MWh in Q4/25, down 28% compared to the prior-year quarter (Q4/24: EUR 44/MWh). OMV's average realized natural gas price decreased by 14% to EUR 26/MWh in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR 31/MWh), and thus declined less than the European benchmark prices, mainly due to the change in
portfolio composition following the divestment of SapuraOMV.
In Q4/25, the clean Operating Result decreased by 53% to EUR 586 mn (Q4/24: EUR 1,241 mn). In E&P, lower oil and gas prices and an unfavorable foreign exchange development resulted in negative market effects amounting to
EUR -312 mn. Furthermore, the E&P result reflected lower sales volumes in Libya and Norway as well as the lack of contribution from the Malaysian assets following their divestment in December 2024. These impacts were partially offset by lower E&A expenses in Austria.
Total hydrocarbon production volumes decreased to 300 kboe/d (Q4/24: 337 kboe/d). This was mainly aconsequence of the divestment of the Malaysian assets, which had produced 24 kboe/d in Q4/24. Production was also affected by natural decline in Norway, Romania, and New Zealand, while output in the United Arab Emirates was slightly higher. Production cost excluding royalties increased to USD 10.6/boe (Q4/24: USD 9.7/boe),
predominantly due to the lower production volumes and adverse foreign exchange rate developments, though these were partly mitigated by a reduced absolute cost base. Total hydrocarbon sales volumes decreased to 289 kboe/d (Q4/24: 354 kboe/d). The primary reason for the decline was the missing volumes from the divested SapuraOMV assets that had contributed 26 kboe/d in Q4/24. In addition, sales volumes from Norway and Libya were lower,
mainly due to the lifting schedule.
The result of Gas Marketing & Power fell by 57% to EUR 116 mn (Q4/24: EUR 268 mn). The main reason for this development was a substantially lower Gas Marketing Western Europe result, which decreased in Q4/25 to EUR 48 mn (Q4/24: EUR 283 mn). This was primarily attributable to a one-off effect in Q4/24 as a result of an
arbitration award, which had a positive net impact on the clean Operating Result of Gas Marketing Western Europe of around EUR 210 mn. In addition, a lower transport provision release in Q4/25 compared to Q4/24 further weighed on the result. An improved LNG contribution had a partially offsetting effect. The result of Gas & Power Eastern Europe rose strongly to EUR 68 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR -15 mn). This was essentially attributable to better power business performance, supported by power market deregulation in Romania effective from July 2025. In addition, the gas business result improved in Q4/25 thanks to outstanding operational performance and higher realized margins.
In Q4/25, net special items amounted to EUR -690 mn (Q4/24: EUR -306 mn). Around EUR 400 mn is related to
non-cash net impairment charges of E&P assets in Romania, Tunisia, and New Zealand. Furthermore, following the agreed principles for the extension of production licenses in Romania for an additional 15 years, an impairment of EUR 297 mn of other financial assets related to abandonment obligations was recorded in Q4/25. The Operating Result lessened to EUR -103 mn (Q4/24: EUR 934 mn).
Capital expenditure including capitalized E&A remained flat in Q4/25 at EUR 578 mn (Q4/24: EUR 578 mn). Organic capital expenditure increased by 6% and was directed primarily at projects in Romania, Norway, and Austria.Spending increased in Austria, due in part to the Wittau development. In addition, there were larger investments related to the Neptun Deep development in Romania. These higher expenditures were partly offset by a reduction subsequent to the divestment of the interest in the Ghasha concession in the United Arab Emirates. Exploration
expenditure decreased to EUR 22 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR 53 mn), largely due to the SapuraOMV divestment and a well write-off in Libya. E&A expenditure in the quarter was mainly related to activities in Austria, Norway, andRomania.
January to December 2025 compared to January to December 2024In 2025, the average Brent price amounted to around USD 69/bbl, representing a decrease of 14% compared to the prior-year level (2024: USD 81/bbl). The Group's average realized crude oil price declined by 14% to USD 67/bbl (2024: USD 78/bbl), in line with the Brent benchmark. The THE gas price increased by 8% to EUR 37/MWh (2024: EUR 35/MWh), while the average realized gas price in EUR/MWh increased by 21% to around EUR 30/MWh (2024:
EUR 25/MWh). It therefore developed better than the European benchmark prices, which was mainly due to the change in portfolio composition following the divestment of SapuraOMV.
The clean Operating Result declined by 29% to EUR 2,707 mn in 2025 (2024: EUR 3,810 mn), mainly due to negative market effects and a notably lower Gas Marketing & Power result. The E&P business was impacted by lower oil prices and an unfavorable foreign exchange development. Higher gas prices were only able to partly offset this. The resulting market effects amounted to EUR -634 mn. Reduced liftings in Norway and the missing sales volumes from the divested Malaysian assets further weighed on the result. This was partially compensated by lower depreciation in New Zealand, primarily attributable to the impairments of some E&P assets in 2024, and higher liftings from the United Arab Emirates and Libya.
The total hydrocarbon production volume decreased by 35 kboe/d to 305 kboe/d. This was largely a consequence of the divestment of SapuraOMV, which had produced 28 kboe/d in 2024. In addition, production in New Zealand,
Romania, and Norway came in lower, mostly due to natural decline. Output in Libya was higher than the previous year, as 2024 had been impacted by unplanned outages due to force majeure, and this had a partially offsetting effect. Production cost excluding royalties increased to USD 10.6/boe in 2025 (2024: USD 10.0/boe) due to lower
production volumes and an unfavorable foreign exchange development, though these factors were partly mitigated by a reduced absolute cost base. Total hydrocarbon sales volumes declined by 36 kboe/d to 288 kboe/d, mainly
following the production development.
The result of Gas Marketing & Power decreased significantly to EUR 252 mn in 2025 (2024: EUR 628 mn). This was primarily caused by the sharp decline in the Gas Marketing Western Europe result to EUR 181 mn (2024:
EUR 557 mn), which was largely attributable to one-off effects related to arbitration awards that had a positive impact on the previous year. In addition, a lower storage result due to decreased summer/winter spreads and a
lower sales result following reduced price volatility further weighed on the result. The result of Gas & Power Eastern Europe remained unchanged compared to the previous year at EUR 71 mn (2024: EUR 71 mn). The strong
performance achieved in the second half of 2025, supported by power market deregulation in Romania starting in July 2025, compensated for the negative results recorded in the first two quarters.
Net special items amounted to EUR -830 mn in 2025 (2024: EUR -605 mn), with the majority arising from non-cash net impairment charges of E&P assets. Furthermore, following the agreed principles for the extension of production licenses in Romania for an additional 15 years, an impairment of EUR 297 mn of other financial assets related to abandonment obligations was recorded in 2025. In 2024, net special items were mainly related to impairments of E&P assets. The Operating Result declined to EUR 1,877 mn (2024: EUR 3,205 mn).
Capital expenditure including capitalized E&A reduced to EUR 1,910 mn in 2025 (2024: EUR 1,972 mn), as 2024 was impacted by inorganic investments in renewable energy projects in Romania. This was partly offset by an increase in organic investments to EUR 1,881 mn (2024: 1,787 mn) related to Neptun Deep in Romania, as well as increased activity in Austria, Libya, and Norway, counterbalanced by the divestments of the Ghasha concession in the United Arab Emirates and SapuraOMV. Organic capital expenditure in 2025 was primarily directed at projects in Romania, Norway, and Austria. Exploration expenditure was EUR 148 mn in 2025, down from the 2024 level of EUR 229 mn. The decrease can be explained to a large extent by the SapuraOMV divestment and lower expenditure in OMVPetrom E&P. E&A expenditure in 2025 was mainly directed at activities in Norway, Austria, and Libya.
Proved reserves (1P) as of December 31, 2025, decreased from 979 mn boe (position at December 31, 2024) to 880 mn boe (thereof OMV Petrom: 411 mn boe). The one-year Reserve Replacement Rate (RRR) was 11% in 2025, as positive revisions were almost completely offset by the divestment of the Ghasha concession (2024: -26%). Thethree-year rolling average RRR is 57% (2024: 21%). Positive performance revisions to proved reserves mainly in the United Arab Emirates, Romania, and Norway and successful project maturations mainly in Romania, Libya, and
Norway did not fully compensate for the production and the divestment of the Ghasha concession. Proved plus probable reserves (2P) decreased from 1,543 mn boe (position at December 31, 2024) to 1,389 mn boe (thereof
OMV Petrom: 620 mn boe). Net additions, such as project maturations in the United Arab Emirates and Romania and better performance in Libya, fully replaced the production but could not offset the divestment of the Ghasha
concession.

OMV's share of clean CCS net income of the at-equity consolidated companies
Capital expenditure including acquisitions
Actual refining margins realized by OMV may vary from the OMV refining indicator margin due to factors including different crude oil slate, product yield, and operating conditions.
The clean CCS Operating Result more than tripled to EUR 346 mn (Q4/24: EUR 112 mn), mainly driven by substantially stronger refining indicator margins, a significantly higher ADNOC Refining & ADNOC Global Trading result, and an increased marketing business contribution. Partly offsetting were amongst others negative production effects related to repairs at the Burghausen refinery.
The OMV refining indicator margin Europe rose sharply to USD 14.0/bbl (Q4/24: USD 5.9/bbl), primarily supported by stronger middle distillate and gasoline cracks amid tight supply conditions in the region. In Q4/25, the utilization rate of the European refineries was on a similar level compared to the previous year at 89% (Q4/24: 90%). Fuels and other sales volumes Europe reached 4.27 mn t, an increase of 4% compared with Q4/24 (4.10 mn t). The
contribution of the retail business increased compared to the prior-year quarter due to higher fuel margins, which were primarily the result of a more favorable quotation development for oil products, a better non-fuel business result, and slightly higher sales volumes following the acquisition of retail stations in Slovakia. The result of the
commercial business also improved compared to Q4/24 due to a higher aviation business contribution and higher sales volumes.
The contribution from ADNOC Refining & ADNOC Global Trading, accounted for as OMV's share of clean CCS net income of the at-equity consolidated companies, increased significantly to EUR 51 mn (Q4/24: EUR -3 mn), mainly due to a better market environment.
Net special items amounted to EUR 4 mn (Q4/24: EUR -34 mn). In Q4/24, net special items were primarily related to the mark-to-market assessment of commodity derivatives and impairments of non-current assets. In Q4/25,
CCS effects of EUR -51 mn were recorded as a result of declining crude oil prices throughout the quarter (Q4/24: EUR -8 mn). The Operating Result of Fuels rose significantly to EUR 299 mn (Q4/24: EUR 70 mn). Capital expenditure in Fuels was EUR 288 mn (Q4/24: EUR 385 mn). The lower expenditure compared to the prior-year quarter was mainly the result of different phasing throughout the year. In Q4/25, besides ordinary ongoing business investments, organic capital expenditure mainly comprised investments in the SAF/HVO plant includingelectrolyzers, and investments for new filling stations in high-traffic areas in Romania.
January to December 2025 compared to January to December 2024The clean CCS Operating Result grew to EUR 1,116 mn (2024: EUR 927 mn), mainly as a result of higher refining indicator margins. Partly offsetting were higher utility costs, increased depreciation, negative production effects
related to repairs at the Burghausen refinery, and impacts related to the planned shutdown at the Petrobrazi refinery.
At USD 10.1/bbl, the OMV refining indicator margin Europe increased significantly (2024: USD 7.1/bbl) due to higher middle distillate crack spreads. In 2025, the utilization rate of the European refineries rose slightly to 89% (2024: 87%). The higher utilization rate at the Schwechat refinery in 2025 following the planned and unplanned shutdowns in 2024 more than offset the negative impact of the planned shutdown at the Petrobrazi refinery and coker repairs at the Burghausen refinery in 2025. At 16.4 mn t, fuels and other sales volumes in Europe were
slightly higher compared to 2024 (16.2 mn t). The retail business result increased primarily due to improved fuel
margins, higher sales volumes following the acquisition of retail stations in Austria and Slovakia, and better non-fuel business performance. The result of the commercial business decreased due to lower margins caused by slow
economic development.
In 2025, the contribution of ADNOC Refining & ADNOC Global Trading, accounted for as OMV's share of clean CCS net income of the at-equity consolidated companies, improved to EUR 101 mn (2024: EUR 78 mn). This was mainly due to higher refining indicator margins, partly offset by a lower trading result.
Net special items amounted to EUR -7 mn (2024: EUR -98 mn) and were primarily related to losses from
commodity derivatives and a reassessment of provisions at OMV Petrom. In 2024, special items were mainly driven by the mark-to-market assessment of commodity derivatives. CCS effects of EUR -243 mn were recorded in 2025 as a consequence of declining crude oil prices (2024: EUR -119 mn). The Operating Result of Fuels increased to EUR 866 mn (2024: EUR 709 mn).
Capital expenditure in Fuels amounted to EUR 883 mn (2024: EUR 980 mn). The previous year was impacted by the acquisition of filling stations in Austria and Slovakia. Besides ordinary ongoing business investments, organic capital expenditure in 2025 comprised investments in the SAF/HVO plant including electrolyzers in Petrobrazi, greenhydrogen electrolyzers in Austria, and the fast and ultra-fast EV charging network.

Note: In March 2025, the Borealis Group, excluding Borouge investments, was reclassified to "held for sale" and in addition classified as "discontinued operations." Since reclassification, the non-current assets are no longer depreciated or amortized and investments are no longer accounted for according to the equity method. If not mentioned otherwise, all indicators in the table above also include items classified as "held for sale" and "discontinued operations." For further details, in particular related to the restated reported figures, see the
preliminary condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, section > OMV and ADNOC to establish a new Polyolefins Joint Venture. When comparing the Chemicals clean Operating Result for Q4/25 with Q4/24, a positive deviation of around EUR 179 mn can be explained mainly by the differences in the accounting treatment.

Capital expenditure including acquisitions
On March 3, 2025, OMV and ADNOC signed a binding agreement for the combination of their shareholdings in Borealis and Borouge into Borouge Group International. Consequently, on March 3, 2025, the Borealis Group, excluding the Borouge investments, was reclassified to "held for sale" and in addition classified as "discontinued operations." Unless mentioned otherwise, the following descriptions of the business developments refer to
discontinued and continuing operations.
The clean Operating Result increased significantly to EUR 236 mn, which was to a large extent driven by the
reclassification of the Borealis Group (excluding Borouge investments). Additional support came from improved
olefin margins and lower fixed costs, while a lower utilization rate of the steam crackers, higher market discounts, and a weaker light feedstock advantage were partly offsetting.
The result of OMV base chemicals improved compared to Q4/24. While better olefin indicator margins were
supportive, lower steam cracker utilization and weaker benzene and butadiene margins had a mitigating effect. The ethylene indicator margin Europe increased by 16% to EUR 590/t (Q4/24: EUR 510/t), while the propylene indicator margin Europe grew by 21% to EUR 465/t (Q4/24: EUR 383/t). This was mainly a result of lower feedstock costs as naphtha prices declined.
At 72% in Q4/25, the utilization rate of the European steam crackers operated by OMV and Borealis decreased by 12 percentage points compared to Q4/24. The lower utilization rate was a result of weaker year-end demand and inventory optimization measures.
The contribution of Borealis excluding JVs grew to EUR 110 mn (Q4/24: EUR 27 mn), mostly driven by the stop of depreciation and amortization of non-current assets. Inventory valuation effects came in marginally negative. The contribution of the Borealis base chemicals business declined, mostly as a result of the lower utilization rate of
Borealis' steam crackers, negative inventory effects, a lower light feedstock advantage, and lower phenol margins. Improved olefin indicator margins in Europe and lower fixed costs did not fully manage to compensate for this. The polyolefin contribution decreased, mainly as a result of weaker polyolefin indicator margins and higher market
discounts, while lower fixed costs were partly compensating. The European polyethylene indicator margin
remained essentially flat at EUR 435/t (Q4/24: EUR 440/t), whereas the European polypropylene indicator margin declined by 19% to EUR 325/t (Q4/24: EUR 402/t). Both polyethylene and polypropylene faced continued import pressure and weak demand, while geopolitical factors supporting polyethylene faded. Polyethylene sales volumes excluding JVs grew by 6% and polypropylene sales volumes excluding JVs increased by 2%. Sales volumes in Q4/25 came in higher, in particular following increased sales of Borouge-sourced volumes in the infrastructure and consumer products sectors.
The contribution of Borealis JVs, accounted for as OMV's share of clean net income of the at-equity consolidated companies, increased to EUR 89 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR 48 mn). This was mainly the result of Baystar no longer being consolidated (previously consolidated at equity) because of its reclassification to the disposal group as of March 2025. The contribution from Borouge came in at a similar level to Q4/24 despite challenging markets,
demonstrating the resilience of the company. A less favorable market environment in Asia compared to Q4/24 was offset by substantially higher sales volumes at Borouge. Polyethylene sales volumes from the JVs increased by 8%, while polypropylene sales volumes from the JVs grew by 18%.
Net special items in Q4/25 amounted to EUR -24 mn (Q4/24: EUR -23 mn) and were mainly a result of expenses related to Borouge Group International. The Operating Result from discontinued operations grew in Q4/25 to EUR 66 mn (Q4/24: EUR -38 mn), while the Operating Result from continuing operations improved to EUR 146 mn (Q4/24: EUR 95 mn).
Capital expenditure declined to EUR 272 mn in Q4/25 (Q4/24: EUR 329 mn). Besides ordinary ongoing business investments, organic capital expenditure in Q4/25 was predominantly related to Borealis' construction of the new PDH plant in Kallo, Belgium, and investments fostering growth in specialty products. January to December 2025 compared to January to December 2024The clean Operating Result increased in 2025 to EUR 784 mn (2024: EUR 459 mn), mainly because of the
reclassification of the Borealis Group (excluding Borouge investments) to held for sale. Additional support came from improved olefin margins, while negative inventory effects, a lower light feedstock advantage, and increased market discounts were partly offsetting.
The contribution of OMV base chemicals grew substantially, mainly due to improved olefin indicator margins. A lower steam cracker utilization rate and higher market discounts were compensating in part. The ethylene indicator margin Europe grew by 13% to EUR 569/t (2024: EUR 505/t), while the propylene indicator margin Europe increased by 16% to EUR 445/t (2024: EUR 384/t). This was primarily due to lower feedstock costs, as
naphtha prices declined. While the weak economic environment led to several cracker closures in the European
market, import pressure persisted and the market faced further challenges to the recovery following ongoing tariffs and slowing economic growth.
At 82%, the utilization rate of the European steam crackers operated by OMV and Borealis was 2 percentage points lower than in the prior-year period (2024: 84%), but still around 10 percentage points higher than the European
average. 2025 experienced lower utilization rates at the Schwechat, Stenungsund, and Burghausen steam crackers, while the utilization rate at the Porvoo cracker increased.
The contribution of Borealis excluding JVs in 2025 grew to EUR 447 mn (2024: EUR 247 mn), mostly driven by the stop of depreciation and amortization of non-current assets. Negative inventory effects weighed on the result in 2025 as they were substantially more pronounced than in 2024. The contribution of the base chemicals business
declined sharply, mostly as a result of a weaker light feedstock advantage, negative inventory effects, higher market discounts, and lower phenol margins. Improved olefin indicator margins in Europe were only partly compensating.
The polyolefin contribution came in lower, mostly due to negative inventory effects, increased market discounts, and higher fixed costs. The European polyolefins market remained subdued in 2025, weighed down by weak
macroeconomic sentiment, policy uncertainty, and cautious buying behavior from customers. Overall demand levels were broadly unchanged versus 2024, stable but anemic, amid persistent cost of living pressures. The polyethylene
indicator margin Europe increased by 7% to EUR 461/t (2024: EUR 432/t), supported by heightened geopolitical uncertainty during the year, including concerns around potential EU tariffs on US imports, which temporarilystrengthened pricing power. In contrast, the polypropylene indicator margin Europe declined by 10% to EUR 361/t (2024: EUR 402/t), reflecting persistently weak underlying demand in key end-use sectors and sustained import availability, resulting in continued margin erosion over the year. Polyethylene sales volumes excluding JVs increased by 7%, while polypropylene sales volumes excluding JVs grew by 4% compared to 2024. Sales volumes in 2025 came in higher mainly due to increased sales of Borouge-sourced volumes.
The contribution of Borealis JVs, accounted for as OMV's share of clean net income of the at-equity consolidated companies, increased in 2025 to EUR 248 mn (2024: EUR 180 mn). This was mainly the result of Baystar no longer being consolidated (previously consolidated at equity) because of its reclassification to the disposal group as of March 2025. The contribution from Borouge declined in 2025, mainly as a result of reduced average market benchmark prices due to a less favorable market environment in Asia. Polyethylene sales volumes from the JVs remained essentially on a similar level to 2024, while polypropylene sales volumes from the JVs were 2% higher.
Net special items in 2025 amounted to EUR -75 mn (2024: EUR -55 mn) and were mainly related to personnel restructuring and expenses related to Borouge Group International. The Operating Result from discontinued operations grew markedly in 2025 to EUR 335 mn (2024: EUR 52 mn), while the Operating Result from continuing operations increased slightly to EUR 374 mn (2024: EUR 352 mn).
Capital expenditure in Chemicals decreased to EUR 971 mn (2024: EUR 1,081 mn), mainly as a result of lower non-cash effective CAPEX related to leases as well as the acquisition of Integra Plastics in Bulgaria in 2024. Besidesordinary ongoing business investments, organic capital expenditure in 2025 was predominantly related to Borealis' construction of the new PDH plant in Kallo, the construction of the sorting facility for chemical recycling in Walldürn, and investments fostering growth in specialty products.

1 "First consolidation" refers to newly formed companies, and "First consolidation (A)" indicates the acquisition of a company. "Deconsolidation" refers to companies that have been excluded from the Group investments following a sale. "Deconsolidation (M)" refers to subsidiaries that were deconsolidated following a merger into another Group company, and "Deconsolidation (I)" refers to companies that were deconsolidated due to immateriality.
2 Company consolidated at-equity
3 Borouge Group International AG (BGI) was established as part of the preparations for the formation of the polyolefins joint venture between OMV and ADNOC. BGI holds 100% of the shares in Borealis GmbH and is owned 75% by the OMV Group and 25% by MPP Holdings GmbH (renamed XRG Austria GmbH in January 2026). For further details please refer to subchapter "OMV and ADNOC to establish a new Polyolefins Joint Venture."
Seasonality and cyclicality
Due to the seasonal nature of the supply and demand of natural gas, higher sales volumes are usually seen during the heating season from October to March in the Energy segment. Additional seasonality effects impact the Fuels segment, mainly because of retail, with an expected fuel and non-fuel business peak in the third quarter. This
information is provided to allow for a better understanding of the results, however the OMV Group does not have a highly seasonal business.
Other significant transactions
EnergyOn May 29, 2025, OMV signed and closed an agreement to divest its 5% stake in the Ghasha concession, located in the United Arab Emirates, to Lukoil Gulf Upstream L.L.C. S.P.C. (Lukoil). The overall cash consideration amounted to USD 594 mn less USD 100 mn transaction fee. The cash impact amounting to EUR 457 mn is shown in the line
"Cash inflows from the sale of subsidiaries and businesses, net of cash disposed" in the cash flow from investing activities. The transaction did not have a material impact on the income statement in 2025.
Following the agreed principles between OMV Petrom and the Romanian state for 15 years extension of production licenses in Romania, the Group's Operating result for Q4/25 reflects an impairment of other financial assets of EUR 297 mn related to abandonment obligations foreseen to be incurred by OMV Petrom on its own costs, recorded in Other operating expenses.
OMV and ADNOC to establish a new Polyolefins Joint Venture
Description of the transactionOn March 3, 2025, OMV and ADNOC signed a binding agreement for the combination of their shareholdings in Borealis and Borouge into Borouge Group International. ADNOC has also entered in a share purchase agreement with Nova Chemicals Holdings GmbH, an indirectly wholly owned company of Mubadala Investment Company
P.J.S.C., for 100% of Nova Chemicals for an enterprise value of USD 13.4 bn. ADNOC and OMV have agreed that upon completion of the combination, Borouge Group International will acquire Nova Chemicals, further expanding its footprint in North America.
OMV and ADNOC will have equal shareholdings of 46.94% each and equal partnership in Borouge Group
International following a cash injection of EUR 1.6 bn (reduced by dividends paid out until closing) by OMV into the new company. The new entity will be headquartered and domiciled in Austria, with regional headquarters to be established in Abu Dhabi, and intended listing on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX). It is further intended that Borouge Group International will have a dual listing on the Vienna Stock Exchange (VSE) in the future. The equal shareholding structure enables joint control between OMV and ADNOC, allowing both parties to have equal decision-making rights in all strategic matters.
As part of the preparations for the formation of the polyolefins joint venture between OMV and ADNOC, Borealis' 40% participation in Borouge 4 LLC (Borouge 4), including associated shareholder loans and financial guarantees, was transferred to OMV subsidiaries (30%) and to ADNOC's subsidiary MPP Holdings GmbH1 (10%) on October 24, 2025. The transaction did not have a material impact on the consolidated income statement. The cash proceeds related to the associated shareholder loans amounted to EUR 158 mn and are reported in the line "Cash inflows in relation to non-current assets and financial assets" in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. Once fully
operational, Borouge 4 is envisaged to be retransferred to Borouge Group International AG. When combined, the three highly complementary businesses will create the fourth-largest global polyolefin group.
The acquisition of Nova Chemicals, a North American-based polyolefin producer and a leader in advanced
packaging solutions and proprietary technologies, will further strengthen Borouge Group International's presence across the Americas and increase its exposure to advantaged feedstock. Borouge Group International will be uniquely positioned to create value and generate through-cycle shareholder returns, supported by synergies and a
1 Renamed XRG Austria GmbH in January 2026
strong pipeline of organic growth projects. The Nova Chemicals transaction will be funded through acquisition debt, which is expected to be refinanced in the capital markets.
The combination of Borouge and Borealis and the acquisition of Nova Chemicals will be closed simultaneously, with expected completion in Q1 2026 subject to regulatory approvals and other customary conditions.
Reclassification to held for sale and discontinued operationsBased on the signed agreement, OMV is expected to lose control over Borealis group (excluding the Borouge investments), leading to deconsolidation after closing of the transaction. The closing of the transaction is expected to be completed within one year from the date of the announcement of the transaction. Consequently, on March 3, 2025, Borealis Group (excluding the Borouge investments) was reclassified to "held for sale" according to IFRS 5 (later referred to as "Borealis disposal group"). Since reclassification, the non-current assets are no longer depreciated or amortized and investments are no longer accounted for according to the equity method in line with IFRS 5 requirements. Applying the measurement principles of IFRS 5 did not lead to a remeasurement of Borealis disposal group.
Borealis disposal group represents a separate major line of business of OMV in the Chemicals segment and is therefore reported as a discontinued operation. The prior year statement of comprehensive income has been restated to present the discontinued operations separately from the continuing operations.
OMV entities will continue to purchase goods from and sell goods to the discontinued operations. The intra-group transactions are fully eliminated on Group level. For the presentation of the results from discontinued operations, OMV reclassifies consolidated amounts and provides additional disclosures on material transactions between OMV and the discontinued operations. For more details on material eliminated intercompany charges, see section "Additional disclosures related to discontinued operations."
The Borouge investments are currently jointly controlled by OMV and ADNOC and will continue to be jointly
controlled after the closing of the transaction. They, therefore continue to be accounted for according to the equity method.
Some entities of Borealis Group are members of the Austrian tax group and will continue to be part of the Austrian tax group after closing of the transaction via joint tax grouping (Beteiligungsgemeinschaft). This joint tax group will be formed by the Austrian shareholders of Borealis Group, and the proportional share of taxable result of the joint tax group will be attributable to the Austrian tax group. Expected partial disposal of Borealis Group from the Austrian tax group triggered the reassessment of the net deferred tax asset position (DTA) of the Austrian tax group in OMV Aktiengesellschaft. As a consequence, the DTA of the Austrian tax group decreased by EUR 129 mn. The impact of the reassessment is presented in the line "Taxes on income and profit" in the Consolidated Income Statement.
RestatementPrior year periods have been adjusted accordingly in order to comply with the requirements of IFRS 5.34 to reflect comparative information for discontinued operations. The tables below depict the financial information as reported in 2024 and restated:

Sales revenues to continuing operations were mainly related to the sale of chemical products, which were predominantly sold to OMV's Chemicals sites in Schwechat (Austria) and Burghausen (Germany) for production.
These sales revenues were eliminated before reclassification to "Net income from discontinued operations." The gross margin related to them is reflected in "Net income from discontinued operations." The before mentioned sales contracts will stay effective after closing of the transaction.
Purchases from continuing operations were mainly related to the sale of feedstock (base chemicals) from OMV's refinery sites in Schwechat (Austria) and Burghausen (Germany). These sales revenues from OMV's continuing operations to Borealis were eliminated and are therefore not included in the line "Sales revenues" in the
Consolidated Income Statement. The gross margin related to them is reflected in "Net income from continuing operations." In the table "Net income from discontinued operations," those purchases from OMV's continuing operations are reflected in the line "Other operating expenses." The before mentioned sales contracts will stay effective after closing of the transaction.
The current income tax charges related to the Borealis disposal group for members of the Austrian tax group were pooled with the tax charges of the other members of the Austrian tax group in OMV Aktiengesellschaft. These income taxes were eliminated prior to reclassification to "Net income from discontinued operations" and are
therefore not included in the line "Taxes on income and profit" in the table "Net income from discontinued operations."
