Second quarter 2021 (Q2/21) compared to second quarter 2020 (Q2/20)
Consolidated sales revenues increased substantially by 132% to EUR 7,266 mn due to the additional revenues stemming from full consolidation of Borealis as well as higher market prices and sales volumes. The clean CCS Operating Result improved by EUR 1,154 mn from EUR 145 mn to a record EUR 1,299 mn. The clean Operating Result of Exploration & Production grew to EUR 498 mn (Q2/20: EUR (152) mn), while the clean CCS Operating Result of Refining & Marketing declined to EUR 181 mn (Q2/20: EUR 231 mn). In Chemicals & Materials, the clean Operating Result rose sharply to EUR 647 mn (Q2/20: EUR 78 mn). The consolidation line was EUR (10) mn in Q2/21 (Q2/20: EUR (9) mn).
At 33%, the clean CCS Group tax rate was higher than in the same quarter last year (Q2/20: 19%) due to the contribution from high tax regime countries turning from negative in Q2/20 to positive in Q2/21. The clean CCS net income increased to
EUR 853 mn (Q2/20: EUR 124 mn). The clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders of the parent was EUR 643 mn
(Q2/20: EUR 65 mn). Clean CCS Earnings Per Share grew to EUR 1.97 (Q2/20: EUR 0.20).
Net special items of EUR (127) mn were recorded in Q2/21 (Q2/20: EUR (12) mn) and mainly related to temporary hedging effects, write-offs, and provisions. CCS effects of EUR 66 mn were recognized in Q2/21. The OMV Group's reported Operating Result was up considerably to EUR 1,238 mn (Q2/20: EUR 63 mn).
The net financial result decreased to EUR (31) mn (Q2/20: EUR 8 mn). This development was mainly due to a lower net interest result and foreign exchange effects. With a Group tax rate of 33%, net income grew substantially to EUR 809 mn (Q2/20:
EUR 58 mn). The net income attributable to stockholders of the parent increased considerably to EUR 622 mn (Q2/20: EUR 24 mn). Earnings Per Share rose to EUR 1.90 (Q2/20: EUR 0.07).
As of June 30, 2021, the net debt excluding leases amounted to EUR 7,148 mn compared to EUR 3,401 mn on June 30, 2020, mainly due to increased financing impacted by the acquisition of an additional 39% share in Borealis. As of June 30, 2021, the gearing ratio excluding leases stood at 34% (June 30, 2020: 21%). For further information on the gearing ratio, please see section "Financial liabilities". The leverage ratio defined as (net debt including leases) / (equity + net debt including leases) amounted to 28% as of June 30, 2021 (June 30, 2020: 21%).
Total capital expenditure came in at EUR 659 mn (Q2/20: EUR 386 mn) and was mainly driven by organic projects, with the majority in the Exploration & Production and Chemicals & Materials segments. In Q2/21, organic capital expenditure was up by 70% to EUR 632 mn (Q2/20: EUR 372 mn), mainly due to the full consolidation of Borealis.

Second quarter 2021 (Q2/21) compared to second quarter 2020 (Q2/20)
▸

The clean Operating Result grew robustly to EUR 498 mn, thanks to strong positive market effects.
Production up by 26 kboe/d to 490 kboe/d, driven by Libya, Malaysia, and Tunisia; sales volumes followed suit.
Production cost increased to USD 6.8/boe due to adverse FX effects.
In Q2/21, the clean Operating Result increased markedly from EUR (152) mn in Q2/20 to EUR 498 mn. A very solid operational performance was bolstered by a highly beneficial market environment . Net market effects boosted returns by EUR 521 mn, owing to extraordinary commodity price growth. Adverse factors were FX movements and hedging losses. Operational performance added another EUR 130 mn on the back of higher production and sales volumes, mainly driven by the return to full operations in Libya and the commissioning of new natural gas fields in Malaysia and Tunisia. A lower number of exploration write-offs reduced E&A expenses, improving the result.
In Q2/21, net special items amounted to EUR (114) mn (Q2/20: EUR (85) mn), mainly consisting of temporary natural gas hedging
effects. The Operating Result improved to EUR 383 mn (Q2/20: EUR (237) mn).
Production cost excluding royalties increased to USD 6.8/boe (Q2/20: USD 6.2/boe), mainly owing to adverse FX effects.
The total hydrocarbon production volume expanded by 26 kboe/d to 490 kboe/d. Libyan production was at full capacity during the entire quarter, while it had been severely affected by a force majeure situation in the same period last year. Output in Malaysia and Tunisia grew on the back of the commissioning of new natural gas fields. Natural decline in Romania, lower natural gas extraction in New Zealand, and the full divestment of operations in Kazakhstan in May 2021 stifled production growth to some extent. Total hydrocarbon sales volumes rose to 459 kboe/d (Q2/20: 434 kboe/d) following the trend in production volume.
The rise in oil prices continued during Q2/21. Demand optimism backed by the first signs of a post-COVID-19 economic recovery ultimately outpaced fears concerning Indian demand weakness and additional supply from Iran by the end of May. High OPEC+ quota compliance, the prolongation of Iran talks, and the growing understanding that the expanding influence of ESG criteria on investment decisions is limiting future supply growth put prices on a growth trajectory during the final weeks of the quarter. The average Brent price increased notably during the quarter, averaging USD 69.0/bbl. Compared to last year, the oil price more than doubled. This is why the Group's average realized crude oil price advanced by 134% year over year. On the natural gas side, the cold European spring led to an extension of the withdrawal period from already low storages for over a month at a time when repletion usually restarts. With additional imports via LNG and from Russia being limited, European natural gas prices experienced their strongest quarterly surge in over a decade. Prices exceeding EUR 33/MWh at the end of June 2021 had not been seen in Europe since 2008. OMV's average realized natural gas price in EUR/MWh was almost 50% higher than in the same quarter last year.
Capital expenditure including capitalized E&A rose from EUR 251 mn to EUR 291 mn in Q2/21, as the COVID-19 pandemic had led to a significant activity cutback in the same quarter last year. In Q2/21, organic capital expenditure was primarily directed at projects in Romania, Norway, and the United Arab Emirates. Exploration expenditure was cut by 6% to EUR 47 mn in Q2/21 and mainly related to activities at SapuraOMV.
