8.	Net income by operating segment

In 2022, Petrobras implemented changes to its financial reporting system, according to the metric approved by the Executive Board. These changes did not change the allocation of Petrobras' reportable operating segments (E&P, RT&M and G&P). However, the measurement of certain components of the operating segments and of Corporate and other businesses was changed as following:

·	trade and other receivables, recoverable income taxes and other recoverable taxes, previously allocated to operating segments, are now presented in Corporate and other businesses. Expected credit losses are now also presented in Corporate and other businesses;

·	losses with commodity derivatives (within other income and expenses, net), previously presented in Corporate and other businesses, are now presented in operating segments;

·	general and administrative expenses related to logistics and fuel sales, previously presented in Corporate and other businesses, are now disclosed in the RT&M segment.

This information reflects the Company's current management model and is used by the Board of Executive Officers (Chief Operating Decision Maker - CODM) to make decisions regarding resource allocation and performance evaluation.

In this context, the information by operating segment of the first quarter of 2022 has been restated for comparison purposes, as follows:

Uncertain tax treatments

On April 24, 2023, the Company received an additional charge from the Dutch tax authority, due to a final assessment on the calculation of the Corporate Income Tax (CIT) of subsidiaries in the Netherlands in 2018, arising from the valuation of platforms and equipment nationalized under the Repetro tax regime, in the amount of R$ 1,417, classified as a contingent liability (note 14.3).

The years 2019 to 2022 have not yet been assessed by the Dutch tax authorities. Any collection by the Dutch tax authority on a similar basis to the 2018 year could reach the amount of R$ 1,529, making the total of the aforementioned uncertain tax position at R$ 2,946.

The Company will continue to defend its position that the valuation of platforms and equipment was carried out in compliance with the relevant legislation, through the use of administrative appeals or by the Dutch judicial courts. Therefore, no provision was recorded in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements for the period ended March 31, 2023.

13.1.1 Variable compensation program

Performance award program (PPP)

Until March 2023, the company paid the PPP 2022 to employees in the amount of R$718 (R$666 in the parent company) and, in April 2023, R$1,987 (R$1,852 in the parent company), totaling R$ 2,705 (R$2,518 in the parent company), considering compliance with the company's performance metrics and the individual performance of all employees.

With regard to the 2023 financial year, a proposal for reviewing Petrobras' PPP model is under study. However, in view of the expectation of maintaining a program with a similar nature to that of 2022, Petrobras provisioned, in the period from January to March 2023, R$ 664 referring to the employees' variable remuneration for the year 2023, recorded in other operating expenses and, in the consolidated, R$ 725 with the other programs of the consolidated companies.

Profit Sharing (PLR)

The company made an advance of PLR 2022 to employees in the amount of R$ 229 (R$ 211 in the parent company), whose final payment is estimated for May 30, 2023, considering PLR 2021/2022 rule, approved by the Secretariat for Coordination and Governance of State Companies (Sest), of the Federal Government, which covers employees without managerial functions and provides for individual limits according to the remuneration of participants.

In the period from January to March 2023, the company provisioned R$180 (R$162 in the parent company) referring to employee profit sharing for the year 2023, recorded in other operating expenses.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PETROBRAS This interim financial information should be read together with the Company's audited annual financial statements (Expressed in millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)

13.2.Termination benefits

These are those provided by the termination of the employment contract as a result of: i) the entity's decision to terminate the employee's employment relationship before the normal retirement date; or ii) employee's decision to accept an offer of benefits in exchange for termination of employment.

The company has voluntary termination programs (PDV), incentive retirement (PAI), specific termination programs for the corporate segment and for employees assigned to units in the process of divestment, which basically provide for the same legal and indemnity benefits.

Considering the set of programs, there are 11,732 adhesions accumulated until March 31, 2023 (11,688 adhesions until December 31, 2022).

The change in the provision is shown below:

	Consolidated
	2023	2022
	Jan-Mar	Jan-Mar
Opening Balance	1,005	1,950
Effects in the statement of income	(17)	20

Use due to termination	(120)	(676)
Saldo final	868	1,294
Current	355	695
Non Current	513	599

The recognition of the provision for expenses with the retirement programs occurs as the employees join.

The company deferred the payment of indemnities in two installments, the first at the time of termination, together with the legal severance payments, and the second, when applicable, 12 months after the payment of the first installment.

As of March 31, 2023, of the total provisioned, the amount of R$174 corresponds to the second installment of 590 terminated employees and the amount of R$694 corresponds to 1,319 employees enrolled in the voluntary termination programs scheduled to leave by September 2025.

13.3.Post-employment benefits

The company maintains a health care plan for its employees in Brazil (active and retired) and their dependents and five other main post-retirement pension benefits (collectively referred to as "company pension plans").

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PETROBRAS This interim financial information should be read together with the Company's audited annual financial statements (Expressed in millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)

Health Care Plan

The health care plan, named "Saúde Petrobras", is managed by the Petrobras Health Association (APS), a non-profit civil association and includes prevention and health care programs. The plan covers all current employees, retirees and is open to new employees.

Benefits are paid by the Company based on the costs incurred by the participants. The financial participation of the Company and the beneficiaries on the expenses is established in the collective bargaining agreement (ACT), being 60% (sixty percent) by the company and 40% (forty percent) by the participants.

Pension plans

The Company's post-retirement plans are managed by Petros Foundation (Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social), which was established by Petrobras (Sponsor) as a nonprofit legal entity governed by private law with administrative and financial autonomy.

The net obligation with pension plans recorded by the company has a different recognition methodology than that applicable to pension funds, regulated by the Conselho Nacional de Previdência Complementar.

The main differences in accounting practices adopted in Brazil (CNPC and CVM) between the Pension Fund and the Sponsor for calculating the actuarial commitment on December 31, 2022 are shown below:

	PPSP-R (*)	PPSP-NR (*)
Deficit registered by Petros	1,721	1,781

Net actuarial liability recorded by the Company	20,297	7,198
(*) It includes the balance of PPSP-R pre-70 and PPSP-NR pre-70.

On March 29, 2023, the Petros Deliberative Council approved the financial statements of the pension plans for the year ended on December 31, 2022, sponsored by the company.

On April 1^st, 2023, the deficit equation plan (PED) for the 2021 fiscal year of the Petros Renegotiated Plan (PPSP-R) came into effect, with the start of extraordinary charges on the payroll of assets and beneficiaries from April/ 23, after a favorable statement by SEST (the supervisory body of the sponsor Petrobras), which took place on March 17, 2023.

The PED 2021 had already been approved by Petros' Deliberative Council (CD) on November 10, 2022 and the deficit calculated for the 2021 fiscal year of R$ 8,515, must be equated equally between the sponsors and the participants of the PPSP-R, subject to the contribution parity limit, and Petrobras will have the total amount of R$ 4,012, positioned on December 31, 2022, which will be paid in monthly installments for the entire period of existence of the plan.

13.3.1 Amounts in the financial statements related to defined benefit plans

The net actuarial liability represents the company's obligations, net of the fair value of plan assets (when applicable), at present value.

13.3.2. Contributions

From January to March 2023, the company contributed a total of R$925 to defined benefit plans, which reduced the balance of obligations, as per the table in note 13.3.1. Additionally, it contributed R$283 (R$242 for the period from January to March 2022) to the defined contribution portion of the PP2 plan and R$2 of the PP3 plan (R$2 for the period from January to March 2022), which were recognized in costing and in statement of income for the year.

The contribution to the defined benefit portion of the PP-2, which had been suspended in July 2012, was restored in April 2023, pursuant to a decision by the Petros Foundation's Deliberative Council. Thus, a portion of the monthly contribution will be destined to risk coverage (payment of sickness allowance, reclusion allowance, lump sum death benefit and minimum guarantees) to reduce the balance of the actuarial liability.

In the preparation of the interim financial information for the period ended on March 31, 2023, the Company considered all available information concerning legal proceedings in which the Company is a defendant, in order to estimate the amounts of obligations and probability that outflows of resources will be required.

In the period from January to March 2023, the increase in liabilities is mainly due to changes in the following cases: (i) R$556 in the provision for civil litigation involving contractual issues; (ii) R$78 in the provision related to labor claims; (iii) R$73 in the provision for litigation related to the state monopoly of piped gas services, offset by (iv) a reduction of R$104 due to the agreement involving environmental processes of administrative responsibility.

14.3 Contingent liabilities

As of March 31, 2023, the contingent liabilities plus interest and monetary restatement, estimated for legal proceedings, whose probability of loss is considered possible, are presented in the following table:

	Consolidated
Nature	03.31.2023	12.31.2022
Tax	169,037	167,457
Labor	44,362	43,163
Civil	39,855	39,381
Environmental	7,036	6,561
Total	260,290	256,562

The main contingent liabilities are:

·

Tax matters comprising: i) withholding income tax (IRRF), Contribution of Intervention in the Economic Domain (CIDE), Social Integration Program (PIS) and Contribution to Social Security Financing (COFINS) on remittances for payments of vessel charters; (ii) income from foreign subsidiaries and associates located outside Brazil not included in the computation of taxable income (IRPJ and CSLL); (iii) collection of customs taxes and fines related to imports under the Repetro regime in the Frade consortium; (iv) collection of PIS and COFINS, resulting from the payment of taxes negotiated with the Brazilian Federal Government, excluding the payment of fines; (v) collection of VAT tax (ICMS) involving several states; and (vi) deduction from the PIS and COFINS tax base, including ship-or-pay agreements and chartering of aircraft and vessels.

·	Labor matters comprising mainly actions requiring a review of the methodology by which the minimum compensation based on an employee's position and work schedule (Remuneração Mínima por Nível e Regime - RMNR) is calculated.

·

Civil matters comprising mainly: (i) lawsuits related to contracts ; (ii) administrative and legal proceedings challenging an ANP order requiring Petrobras to pay additional special participation fees and royalties (production taxes) with respect to several fields; and (iii) regulation agencies fines.

33

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PETROBRAS This interim financial information should be read together with the Company's audited annual financial statements (Expressed in millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)

·	Environmental matters comprising indemnities for damages and fines related to the Company operation.

In the period from January to March 2023, the increase in contingent liabilities is mainly due to: (i) R$ 1,417 referring to the Corporate Income Tax (CIT), tax on income, of Petrobras subsidiaries in the Netherlands for the year 2018 by valuation of platforms and equipment nationalized under Repetro; (ii) R$1,187 referring to the incidence of PIS/COFINS on tax amnesties; (iii) R$1,162 related to class actions that require a review of the methodology for calculating the Minimum Remuneration by Level and Regime (RMNR); (iv) R$831 referring to administrative and judicial proceedings that discuss the difference in special participation and royalties in different fields, including the unification of fields; (v) R$706 referring to lawsuits involving reversal of ICMS VAT Tax credits; (vi) R$355 referring to fines from regulatory agencies; (vii) R$357 referring to the incidence of CIDE and PIS/COFINS related to the chartering of platforms; and (viii) R$356 referring to the levy of ICMS VAT Tax on added value. These effects were partially offset mainly by (ix) R$3,308 for the transfer to remote loss due to a favorable decision referring to ICMS VAT Tax disputes involving the tax classification of goods.

14.4 RMNR - Minimum Remuneration by Level and Work Regime

There are several lawsuits related to the Minimum Remuneration by Level and Work Regime (RMNR), with the objective of revising its calculation criteria.

The RMNR consists of a guaranteed minimum remuneration for employees, based on salary level, working conditions and geographic location. This compensation policy was created and implemented by Petrobras in 2007 through collective bargaining with union representatives, and approved at employee meetings, being questioned only three years after its implementation.

In 2018, the Superior Labor Court (TST) ruled against the Company, which filed extraordinary appeals against its decision. However, the Federal Supreme Court (STF) suspended the effects of the decision rendered by the TST and determined the national suspension of the ongoing processes related to the RMNR.

On July 29, 2021, a monocratic decision was published in which the Reporting Justice granted the Extraordinary Appeal filed in one of the proceedings to reestablish the judgment that dismissed the copyright requests, accepting the Company's thesis and recognizing the validity of the collective bargaining agreement freely signed between Petrobras and the labor unions, reversing the decision of the TST.

In February 2022, the judgment of the grievances filed by the plaintiff and several amici curiae began. The judgment is currently underway in the First Panel of the Federal Supreme Court, with 3 votes in favor of the company, confirming that the prevailing understanding is in the sense of recognizing the validity of the collective bargaining agreement freely signed between Petrobras and the unions. Considering that the last minister to speak up requested a view, the trial was suspended pending the presentation of the vote by Minister Vistor.

As of March 31, 2023, there are several lawsuits related to the Minimum Remuneration by Level and Work Regime (RMNR) reflected in the company's interim financial information, R$859 of which classified as probable loss, recognized in liabilities as a provision for lawsuits and administrative expenses, and R$36,694 classified as possible loss.

14.5 Class action and related proceedings

On January 23, 2017, Stichting Petrobras Compensation Foundation ("Foundation") filed a class action in the Netherlands, at the District Court of Rotterdam, against Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras, Petrobras International Braspetro B.V. (PIB BV), Petrobras Global Finance B.V. (PGF), Petrobras Oil & Gas B.V. (PO&G) and some former Petrobras managers. The Foundation alleges that it represents the interests of an unidentified group of investors and claims that, based on the facts revealed by Lava-Jato Operation, the defendants acted illegally before investors. On 26 May 2021, the District Court of Rotterdam decided that the class action must proceed and that the arbitration clause of Petrobras' bylaws does not prevent the Company's shareholders from having access to the Dutch Judiciary and being represented by the Stichting Petrobras Compensation Foundation ("Foundation"). However, investors who have already started arbitration against Petrobras or who are parties to legal proceedings in which the applicability of the arbitration clause has been definitively recognized are excluded from the action. The class action is in the merit discussion stage and a decision is expected for July 26, 2023, but it may be brought forward or postponed by the Court.

In the arbitration in Argentina, in which Petrobras is being held responsible for an alleged loss of market value of Petrobras shares in the country, due to the developments of Lava Jato Operation, the appeal filed by the Consumidores Damnificados Asociación Civil para su Defensa (" Association") was denied, but the Association filed a new appeal, which has not yet been judged by the Argentine Supreme Court.

In parallel to such arbitration, the Association also filed a class action before the Civil and Commercial Court of Buenos Aires, Argentina, with Petrobras appearing spontaneously on April 10, 2023, in the context of which it alleges Petrobras' responsibility for an alleged loss of market value of Petrobras' securities in Argentina, as a result of allegations made within the scope of the Lava Jato Operation and its impact on the Company's financial statements prior to 2015. Such demand does not generate immediate financial and economic impacts for the company. Petrobras denies the allegations made by the Association and will vigorously defend itself against the accusations made by the author of the collective action.

Regarding the criminal action in Argentina related to an alleged fraudulent offer of securities, aggravated by the fact that Petrobras allegedly declared false data in its financial statements prior to 2015, the Court of Appeals revoked, on October 21, 2021, the decision of first instance that had recognized Petrobras' immunity from jurisdiction and recommended that the lower court take steps to certify whether the company could be considered criminally immune in Argentina for a subsequent reassessment of the matter. Petrobras appealed against this decision, but the higher courts upheld the decision of the Court of Appeals, so the immunity will have to be reviewed by the lower court. The Court of Appeals recognized that the Association could not act as a representative of financial consumers, due to the loss of its registration with the competent Argentine bodies, which was also the object of an appeal accepted by the Court of Cassation on September 15, 2022, recognizing the Association the right to represent financial consumers. Petrobras presented other procedural defenses, still subject to appreciation by the appellate courts of the Argentine Justice. This criminal action is pending before the Criminal Economic Court No. 2 of the city of Buenos Aires.

In relation to the other criminal action, for alleged non-compliance with the obligation to publish as a "relevant fact" in the Argentine market that there was a class action filed by Consumidores Damnificados Asociación Civil para su Defensa before the Commercial Court, no relevant events occurred in the period from January to March 2023.

The EIG Energy Fund XIV, L.P. and affiliates ("EIG") filed a lawsuit against Petrobras, before the District Court of Columbia, United States, to recover alleged losses related to its investment in Sete Brasil Participações S.A. On August 8, 2022, the judge upheld EIG's claim as to Petrobras' responsibility for the alleged losses, but denied the motion for summary judgment with respect to damages, whereby the award of compensation will be subject to the proof of damages by EIG at a hearing and to the consideration of the defenses by the Company. In the same decision, whose effects were recognized in the company's financial statements in the third quarter of 2022, the judge denied the request to dismiss the case based on Petrobras' immunity from jurisdiction, which is why an appeal was filed with the Federal Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. Considering the filing of the appeal, Petrobras requested the suspension of the process, which was granted by the lower court judge on October 26, 2022

On August 26, 2022, the District Court of Amsterdam granted a precautionary measure to block certain Petrobras assets in the Netherlands, at the request of EIG. The concession was based on the decision of the District Court of Columbia, on August 8, 2022, and was intended to ensure the satisfaction of EIG's claims contained in the aforementioned US lawsuit. For the purpose of this injunction alone, the District Court of Amsterdam limited EIG's claims to a total of US$ 297.2 million, although the US Court ruled that any award of damages would depend on evidence of damages by EIG at a trial hearing. There are some discussions about the scope of the assets blocked by EIG, but there is no related lawsuit pending in the Netherlands. This precautionary block does not prevent Petrobras and its subsidiaries from complying with their obligations to third parties.

On February 28, 2023, Petrobras was notified by the Ministry of Mines and Energy - MME, requesting the suspension of asset sales for 90 days, due to the reassessment of the National Energy Policy and to the new composition of the National Energy Policy Council, respecting the Company's governance rules, commitments assumed with government entities and without going against the interests of Petrobras.

On April 3, 2023, the Company's Board of Executive Officers informed that the revision of unsigned divestment processes will be carried out within the scope of the adjustments to be made to the 2023-27 Strategic Plan.

The major classes of assets and related liabilities classified as held for sale are shown in the following table:

(***) Operations with variable index plus fixed spread, as applicable.

As of March 31, 2023, the fair values ​​of financing are mainly determined by using:

Level 1 - prices quoted in active markets, when applicable, in the amount of R$ 65,873 (R$ 68,146, on December 31, 2022); and

Level 2 - cash flow method discounted by the spot rates interpolated from the indexes (or proxies) of the respective financing, observed to the pegged currencies, and by the credit risk of Petrobras, in the amount of R$ 84,461 (R$ 87,620, on December 31, 2022).

Regarding the reform of the reference interest rates (IBOR Reform), the company continues to monitor the pronouncements of the regulatory authorities, as well as the measures that have been adopted, with a view to adapting the various financial instruments to the new benchmarks, and the company expects that the replacement of the reference to LIBOR in current financing agreements is carried out under market conditions, and therefore, it expects that there will be no material impacts when this process is completed. Petrobras and its subsidiaries have debts indexed to Libor (London Interbank Offered Rate), whose value corresponds to approximately 30.9% of its financing.

The sensitivity analysis for financial instruments subject to foreign exchange variation is set out in note 26.3.

A maturity schedule of the Company's finance debt (undiscounted), including face value and interest payments is set out as follows:

Diluted earnings per share are calculated by adjusting the net income attributable to shareholders of Petrobras and the weighted average number of outstanding shares during the period taking into account the effects of all dilutive potential shares (equity instrument or contractual arrangements that are convertible into shares).

Basic and diluted earnings are identical as the Company has no potentially dilutive shares.

26	Risk management

The Company presents a sensitivity analysis of factors relating to its corporate risk management process. The possible and remote scenarios are related to events with low and very low probability of occurrence, respectively. The period of application of the sensitivity analysis is one year, except for operations with commodity derivatives, for which a three-month period is applied, due to the short-term nature of these transactions.

A sensitivity analysis of the derivative financial instruments for the different types of market risks as of March 31, 2023 is set out as follows:

		Consolidated
Financial Instruments	Risk	Probable Scenario	Possible Scenario	Remote Scenario
Derivatives not designated for hedge accounting
Future and Swap contracts	Crude oil and oil products - price changes	−	(330)	(660)
Future and Swap contracts	Soy oil - price changes	−	−	(1)
					−	(330)	(661)

The probable scenario uses references external to the Company, widely used in the pricing of cargo in the oil, oil products and natural gas market, which take into account the closing price of the asset on March 31, 2023, and therefore, it is considered that there is no variation in the result of open operations in this scenario. The possible and remote scenarios reflect the potential effect on the result of outstanding transactions, considering a variation in the closing price of 20% and 40%, respectively. To simulate the most unfavorable scenarios, the variation was applied to each product group according to the position of open operations: price drop for long positions and high for short positions.

26.2	Risk management of crude oil and oil products prices

Petrobras prefers exposure to the price cycle to the systematic performance of protection of operations of purchase or sale of goods, whose objective is to meet its operational needs, with the use of derivative financial instruments. However, subject to the analysis of the business environment and the prospects for carrying out the Strategic Plan, the execution of an occasional hedging strategy with derivatives may be applicable.

a) Other commodity derivative transactions

Petrobras, using its assets, positions and proprietary and market knowledge from its operations in Brazil and abroad, seeks to capture market opportunities through the purchase and sale of oil and oil products, which can occasionally be optimized with the use of commodity derivative instruments to manage price risk in a safe and controlled manner.

26.3	Foreign exchange risk management

a) Cash Flow Hedge involving the Company's future exports

The reference values, at present value, of the hedging instruments as of March 31, 2023, in addition to the expectation of reclassification to the statement of income of the balance of exchange variation accumulated in shareholders' equity in future periods, based on a rate of R$/US$ of 5.0804, are shown below:

.

In the period from January to March 2023, an exchange loss of R$510 was recognized referring to the ineffectiveness in the exchange variation line (exchange gain of R$125 in the same period in 2022).

Future exports designated as hedged items in cash flow hedge relationships represent, on average, 48.13% of highly probable future exports.

The movement in the exchange variation accumulated in other comprehensive income as of March 31, 2023, to be realized by future exports, is shown below:

Changes in expectations of realization of export prices and volumes in future reviews of business plans may determine the need for additional reclassifications of accumulated exchange variation in shareholders' equity to the statement of income. A sensitivity analysis with an average Brent oil price lower in US$ 10/barrel than considered in the last revision of the Strategic Plan 2023-2027, would not indicate the need to reclassify the exchange variation from the shareholders' equity to the statement of income.

The annual expectation of realization of the exchange variation balance accumulated in shareholders' equity as of March 31, 2023 is shown below:

b) Information on ongoing contracts

As of March 31, 2023, the company has swap contracts - IPCA x CDI and CDI x Dollar outstanding.

Swap contracts - IPCA x CDI and CDI x Dollar

In 2019, Petrobras entered into derivative operations with the objective of protecting itself from exposure arising from the 1st series of the 7th issue of debentures, with IPCA x CDI interest swap operations, maturing in September 2029 and September 2034, and operations of cross-currency swap CDI x Dollar, with maturities in September 2024 and September 2029.

51

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS PETROBRAS This interim financial information should be read together with the Company's audited annual financial statements (Expressed in millions of reais, unless otherwise indicated)

In July 2022, the first debenture repurchase plan was approved, authorizing the acquisition of these securities to be held in treasury or resold. Until March 31, 2023, only an immaterial amount of this debt was repurchased. The position in derivative contracts of IPCA x CDI and CDI x Dollar remains unchanged.

Changes in future interest rate curves (CDI) may impact the company's results, due to the market value of these swap contracts. In preparing the sensitivity analysis on future interest rate curves, the parallel shock on this curve was estimated based on the average maturity of swaps and the methodology on the horizon of application of sensitivity, presented above. For the possible and remote scenarios, the impacts of variations of 40% (500 BP - basis points) and 80% (1000 BP), respectively, on future interest rate curves were estimated. The effects of this sensitivity analysis, keeping all other variables constant, are shown in the table below:

	Possible Result	Remote Result
SWAP foreign currency (IPCA x USD)	(52)	(99)

The methodology used to calculate the fair value of this swap operation consists of calculating the future value of the operations, using rates agreed in each contract and the projections of the forward curves, IPCA coupon and foreign exchange coupon, discounting to present value using the risk-free rate. Curves are obtained from Bloomberg based on forward contracts traded in stock exchanges.

The mark-to-market is adjusted to the credit risk of the financial institutions, which is not relevant in terms of financial volume, since the Company deals in contracts with highly rated banks.

c) Sensitivity analysis for foreign exchange risk on financial instruments

The scenario considered probable is referenced by an external source, Focus and Thomson Reuters, based on the exchange rate forecast for the close of the next quarter. The possible and remote scenarios have the same references and consider the appreciation of the exchange rate at the end of the quarter (risk) at 20% and 40%, respectively, with the exception of the balances of assets and liabilities in foreign currency of subsidiaries abroad, when carried out in currency equivalent to their respective functional currencies. These analyzes cover only the exchange rate variation and keep all other variables constant.

26.4	Interest rate risk management

The company preferentially does not use derivative financial instruments to manage exposure to interest rate fluctuations, as they do not cause material impacts, except in specific situations presented by Petrobras subsidiaries.

The interest rate risk sensitivity analysis is performed for a 12-month horizon. The values ​​referring to the possible and remote scenarios mean the total floating interest expense in the event of a variation of 40% and 80% in these interest rates, respectively, keeping all other variables constant.

The following table informs, in the probable scenario, the amount to be disbursed by Petrobras with the payment of interest related to debts with floating interest rate on March 31, 2023.

The company regularly assesses market conditions and may carry out repurchase transactions of its securities or those of its subsidiaries in the international capital markets, by various means, including repurchase offers, securities redemptions and/or open market operations, provided that they are in line with the company's liability management strategy, which aims to improve the amortization profile and the cost of debt.

Report on the review of quarterly information - ITR

(A free translation of the original report in Portuguese, as filed with the Brazilian Securities Commission - CVM, prepared in accordance with the Technical Pronouncement CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Reporting and the international accounting standard IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB)

To the Board of Directors and Shareholders of

Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras

Rio de Janeiro - RJ

Introduction

We have reviewed the individual and consolidated interim financial information of Petróleo Brasileiro S.A. - Petrobras ("the Company"), identified as Parent Company and Consolidated, respectively, included in the quarterly information form - ITR for the quarter ended March 31, 2023, which comprises the statement of financial position as of March 31, 2023 and the respective statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in shareholders' equity and of cash flows for the three-months period then ended, including the explanatory notes.

Management is responsible for the preparation of the individual and consolidated interim financial information in accordance with the CPC 21 (R1) - Interim Financial Reporting and the IAS 34 - Interim Financial Reporting, issued by the International Accounting Standards Board - IASB, such as for the presentation of these information in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission - CVM, applicable to the preparation of quarterly information - ITR. Our responsibility is to express our conclusion on this interim financial information based on our review.

KPMG Auditores Independentes Ltda., uma sociedade simples brasileira e firma-membro da rede KPMG de firmas-membro independentes e afiliadas à KPMG International Cooperative ("KPMG International"), uma entidade suíça.

KPMG Auditores Independentes Ltda., a Brazilian entity and a member firm of the KPMG network of independent member firms affiliated with KPMG International Cooperative ("KPMG International"), a Swiss entity.

Scope of the review

We conducted our review in accordance with Brazilian and international standards on reviews of interim financial information (NBC TR 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity and ISRE 2410 - Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity, respectively). A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with the auditing standards and, consequently, does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion on the individual and consolidated interim financial information

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying individual and consolidated interim financial information included in the quarterly information referred to above has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with CPC 21 (R1) and IAS 34, issued by the IASB, applicable to the preparation of quarterly information - ITR, and presented in accordance with the standards issued by the Brazilian Securities Commission.

Other matters - Statements of added value

The individual and consolidated interim financial information referred to above includes the individual and consolidated statements of added value (DVA) for the three-month period ended at March 31, 2023, prepared under responsibility of Company's management, and presented as supplementary information for IAS 34 purposes. These statements were submitted to review procedures carried out together with the review of the Company's interim financial information to conclude that they are reconciled with interim financial information and accounting records, as applicable, and its form and content are in accordance with the criteria defined in CPC 09 - Statement of Added Value. Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that those statements were not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with the criteria set forth in this Standard with respect to the individual and consolidated interim financial information taken as a whole.
