RE-AFFIRMATION OF CREDIT RATING

Caltex Australia (ASX:CTX) acknowledges that S&P Global Ratings has re-affirmed the BBB+ long term issuer credit rating for Caltex following the profit downgrade last week. S&P has also revised its outlook on Caltex to negative from stable. The negative outlook reflects the challenging industry conditions, especially for the convenience retail business.

Importantly, Caltex recently communicated its strong emphasis on both reducing costs and improving returns and capital efficiency, including in the Convenience Retail business. Delivering these priorities will ensure Caltex's balance sheet remains strong.
