Revenues: increase by 3% (y/y) due to higher sales volumes and higher quotations of refining products at lower quotations of petchem products and hydrocarbons.

EBITDA LIFO: decrease by PLN (-) 2,7 bn (y/y) due to negative impact of lower volumes effect, lower differential, lower trade margins, lower petchem margins, hedging, strengthening PLN/USD, lower fuel margins in retail, lower margins in upstream as well as higher overheads and labour costs.

Abovementioned effects were limited by positive impact of consolidation of PGNiG Group results, higher refining margins, higher non-fuel margins in retail, lower provisions for CO2 emissions as well as usage of historical inventory layers.

LIFO effect: PLN 1,3 bn impact of changes in crude oil prices on inventory valuation.

Financial result: PLN (-) 0,6 bn as a result of negative impact of net FX differences at positive impact of net interests.

Net result: PLN 3,5 bn of net profit.
