San Donato Milanese, February 16, 2024 - Eni's Board of Directors,
chaired by Giuseppe Zafarana, yesterday approved the unaudited consolidated results for the full year and the fourth quarter of 2023.
Eni CEO Claudio Descalzi said:
“2023 was another year of excellent results for Eni in
the face of an uncertain and volatile scenario. We delivered strongly on both financial and operational targets and we continued to progress
our strategy of generating value while decarbonizing and ensuring secure and affordable energy supplies to markets. Our results were underpinned
by our distinctive satellite model that continues to prove to be an effective lever in accelerating growth and value creation.
We have completed the acquisition of Neptune which with its gas
weighted portfolio strongly synergistic to our assets in North Europe, Indonesia and North Africa will be a core element of our future
plans. In 2023 we continued to deliver our organic growth, with the completion on time and on budget of the two flagship, low-carbon projects
of Baleine in Cote d’Ivoire and Congo FLNG ph.1. We maintained leadership in exploration thanks to outstanding success in Indonesia
and elsewhere, while we also hit the upper range of our production target. GGP achieved its historical result thanks to the quality of
its portfolio, steady optimization drive and favorable contractual settlements.
Delivering gas and low carbon projects is one aspect of our transition
plan as we are also materially growing our presence in the new energies. Enilive, our activity dedicated to biofuels and mobility services,
has expanded its international presence by purchasing a 50% interest in the Chalmette biorefinery in the USA and by signing a JV agreement
in South Korea. Plenitude has now reached 3 GW of renewable capacity. These two businesses already generate an economic performance of
around €1 bln EBITDA each.
With the recent entry of an institutional investor into the
shareholding of Plenitude, we highlighted the value of this business, that is estimated at around €10 bln and accessed additional
dedicated capital supporting our growth plan.
Our financial results were excellent, with a proforma adjusted
EBIT of almost €18 bln and an adjusted net profit of more than €8 bln. Cash flow generation at €16.5 bln before working
capital movements gave us a significant headroom over the substantial cash returns to shareholders of €4.8 bln, while keeping our
leverage at 0.2.”
Financial highlights of the fourth quarter 2023 |
| · | Notwithstanding a volatile scenario featuring
both weaker Brent (down by 5% from Q4 ‘22) and natural gas prices (down 57% for the European benchmarks), in Q4 ’23 Eni’s
adjusted profit before tax was €3.2 bln (with a FY adjusted profit before tax of €15.1 bln), signaling a robust Group performance
driven by strong operational execution and financial discipline. |
| · | Proforma adjusted EBIT1 for Q4 ’23
was €3.8 bln (with a remarkable €17.8 bln in the FY) driven by steady E&P results, a record-breaking GGP performance and
a positive contribution from Plenitude. |
| · | E&P earned €2.4 bln of adjusted EBIT
in Q4 ’23, down 17% from Q4 ’22 affected by weaker realized prices, partly offset by a strong rebound in hydrocarbon production,
up by 6% to 1.71 mln boe/d in the quarter. |
FY ’23 E&P adjusted EBIT was €9.9 bln
(versus €16.5 bln in the FY ’22) reflecting weaker hydrocarbons realization and the effect of the deconsolidation of Azule.
Including the contribution of JV/associates, proforma adjusted EBIT for the FY was €13.3 bln (versus €20.9 bln in 2022).
| · | Q4 ’23 GGP adjusted EBIT was €0.68
bln and included the favorable outcome of an arbitration procedure. FY ’23 adjusted EBIT was a record €3.2 bln, up by 57% compared
with 2022, driven by an optimized natural gas and LNG portfolio and contract renegotiations benefits, while maintaining stability and
reliability of supplies to European markets and compensating for the reduction of Russian volumes. Including the contribution of JV SeaCorridor,
proforma adjusted EBIT for the FY was €3.4 bln. |
| · | Enilive delivered €0.12 bln of adjusted EBIT
in the Q4 ’23, up by 5% y-o-y, €0.73 bln in the FY ’23 (up by 8%) benefitting from a resilient marketing performance.
Proforma adjusted EBITDA in the FY ’23 was €1 bln in line with the Company’s guidance. |
| · | Refining Q4 ’23 results were impacted by
negative trends in the refining scenario, with the SERM falling by 40% y-o-y and narrower spreads between heavy/sour vs. light/sweet crudes,
with an adjusted EBIT of €0.03 bln compared with €0.36 bln in Q4 ‘22 (€0.44 bln in FY ’23 compared with €1.51
bln in FY ‘22). |
| · | Plenitude & Power delivered €0.11 bln
of adjusted EBIT in Q4 ‘23, down 6% year-on-year, impacted by lower marketing margins for both renewables and gas-fired plants.
FY ’23 adjusted EBIT was €0.68 bln, up 11% leveraging on strong performance in the retail business and the material ramp-up
in renewable capacity. Plenitude’s proforma adjusted EBITDA in the FY ’23 was €0.93 bln well ahead of the original EBITDA
guidance. |
| · | Versalis reported an adjusted operating loss of
€0.24 bln in Q4 ’23 (a loss of €0.61 bln in the FY ’23). The negative performance was driven by a weak macro environment
and higher production costs in Europe. |
| · | Q4 ’23 adjusted net profit attributable
to Eni shareholders was €1.64 bln, with a Group tax rate of about 48%. In the FY ’23 adjusted net profit attributable to Eni
shareholders was €8.30 bln and a Group tax rate of about 44%. |
| · | In Q4 ’23, Group adjusted operating cash
flow before working capital at replacement cost was €3.6 bln, exceeding outflows related to organic capex of €2.4 bln, and resulting
in an organic free cash flow “FCF” of €1.2 bln. In the FY ’23, adjusted cash flow was €16.5 bln, exceeding
outflows related to capex of €9.2 bln, resulting in an organic FCF of around €7.3 bln. In addition to fund WC requirements,
the organic FCF was deployed to return cash to shareholders through dividends (€3 bln) and a share repurchase program (€1.8
bln), and to pursue strategic M&A opportunities to accelerate growth in the decarbonization businesses (€2.4 bln), including
the Chalmette deal in the USA, the acquisition of Novamont control and the purchase of gas assets in Algeria. |
| · | Net borrowings ex-IFRS 16 as of December 31, 2023,
were €10.9 bln, an increase of around €3.9 bln from December 31, 2022. Group leverage stood at 0.20, versus 0.13 as of December
31, 2022. |
| · | In November 2023, the second out of four instalments
of the dividend for the fiscal year 2023 of €0.23 per share was paid for a total consideration of €0.75 bln. The third instalment
of the 2023 dividend of €0.24 per share was resolved at the same Board meeting and is scheduled to be paid on March 20, 2024. |
1 For
a reconciliation of Group proforma adjusted EBIT and segment breakdown see page 26.
| · | In September, the second tranche of the 2023 share
buy-back program was launched contemplating a maximum cash out of €1.375 bln (or a maximum number of 275 mln shares, approximately
8% of the share capital) to be executed by April 2024. Through February 9, 2024, 84.5 mln shares have been purchased for a cash outlay
of €1.275 bln. |
| · | In December, Plenitude and Energy Infrastructure
Partners (EIP) signed an agreement which allows EIP to acquire a 9% interest in Plenitude through a reserved share capital issuance with
net proceeds to Eni’s subsidiary of up to €0.7 bln. The transaction, expected to be finalized early in 2024, is recognizing
an implied enterprise value of Plenitude of around €10 bln and will strengthen Eni’s consolidated financial structure and leverage.
As at December 31, 2023, Plenitude’s net debt was about €2.2 bln. |
Main business developments |
Exploration &
Production
| · | In FY 2023, exploration activities delivered an
outstanding performance with around 900 mln boe of new resource additions to the reserve base, driven by the exceptional Geng North discovery
in Indonesia, one of the best in the whole sector, and continuing success in Egypt, Mexico, Algeria, Tunisia and UAE. |
| · | In Q4 2023, production resumed its growth trajectory
with 1.71 mln boe/d, up by 6% y-o-y; production for the year was 1.66 mln boe/d, hitting the upper range of our production target. |
| · | Among the production highlights of the year, we
can count the startup of the Baleine oilfield, off the Côte d’Ivoire, in less than two years after the discovery, and the
commissioning of the Tango FLNG vessel in block Marine XII off Congo, which will deliver the first LNG cargo in the first quarter 2024
on schedule. |
| · | In January 2024, the Neptune acquisition was finalized
and will contribute to 2024 results. The transaction, comprising Neptune’s entire portfolio other than its operations in Norway
(purchased by Vår Energi owned at 63% by Eni) and Germany (carved out of the transaction), aligns with Eni’s strategy of providing
the market and the customers with affordable, secure, and low-carbon energy, guaranteed by natural gas. |
| · | Indonesia is expected to become one of the major
growth drivers of natural gas in E&P. The giant Geng North discovery coupled with the integration of Neptune assets and of the interests
in the Rapak and Ganal PSC blocks, farmed-in from Chevron, will give Eni access to massive resources whose development will be synergistic
with Eni’s existing fields and the Bontang LNG export terminal, offering the prospect of transforming the Kutei basin into a new
world class gas hub. |
Global Gas & LNG Portfolio (GGP)
| · | The GGP segment has delivered on ensuring stable
and reliable natural gas supplies to European markets notwithstanding the massive fall in the import flows from Russia. |
| · | In November, Eni signed an agreement with Open
EP to guarantee the flow of gas from France to Switzerland and Italy in the event of interruptions or significant flow reductions from
Germany. |
Enilive, Refining
and Chemicals
| · | In the Q4 2023 the Chalmette biorefinery in Louisiana
(USA), a 50-50 joint venture between EniLive and PBF Energy established earlier in the year, produced 81 ktonnes of bioproducts (204 ktonnes
in the second half of 2023). |
| · | In October, Versalis completed the purchase of
the remaining 64% participating interest in Novamont from its other shareholder Mater-Bi acquiring the control of the investee. |
| · | In October, construction works started of a demo
plant in Mantova to develop Hoop®, Versalis proprietary technology developed with Italian engineering company S.R.S. testing a chemical
process to recycle mixed plastic waste and to transform it into raw materials to produce new virgin polymers. |
| · | In November, an agreement was signed with Saipem
to explore opportunities to jointly build biorefineries producing airlines and motor transport biofuels. |
| · | In January, Enilive and LG Chem building on the
preliminary agreement signed in September 2023, decided to form a joint venture which will make the final investment decision on a biorefinery
project in South Korea expected to start operations in 2026 with an annual processing capacity of 400 ktons of feedstocks, leveraging
on Eni's Ecofining™ technology. |
| · | In January, signed a MOU between Enilive and Ryanair
for the long-term supply of sustainable aviation fuel at selected Ryanair airports across Italy. This agreement will enable Ryanair to
access to up to 100,000 tons of Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) between 2025 and 2030. |
| · | In January, Eni confirmed its decision to build
Italy's third bio-refinery in Livorno with a capacity of 500 ktonnes/y. The project is awaiting official authorizations and includes the
construction of a biogenic feedstock pre-treatment unit, an Ecofining™ plant and a facility to produce hydrogen from methane gas.
Completion and commissioning are expected by 2026. |
Plenitude &
Power
| · | In October, operations started at the world’s
largest offshore wind facility, Dogger Bank, where the Plenitude-participated Vårgrønn JV retains a 20% revenue-interest.
Renewable electricity is transmitted to the UK’s national grid. |
| · | In December, the Plenitude participated JV GreenIT
signed an agreement with Galileo, the pan-European renewable energy development and investment platform, to install 140 MW of solar photovoltaic
capacity in Italy, with ongoing plans to reach 1,000 MW. |
| · | In December, signed a deal where Plenitude
agreed to purchase from EDP Renováveis, S.A an interest of 80% in the photovoltaic plants of Cattlemen (Texas), Timber Road and
Blue Harvest (Ohio) with a total installed capacity of about 478 MW (383 MW Plenitude share). |
| · | In December, Plenitude reached an agreement with
BlueFloat Energy and Sener Renewable Investments to join their strategic partnership to progress in the development of offshore wind projects
in Spain. The agreement allows to create a leading consortium in the Spanish offshore wind sector with a total portfolio of approximately
1.25 GW of floating offshore wind projects. |
Decarbonization
and Sustainability
| · | The associated natural gas volumes produced at
the recently started-up Baleine field off the Cote d’Ivoire are being freely delivered to local state companies to fuel the country’s
electricity generation significantly contributing to reducing energy poverty and improving local development, as part of Eni’s dual
flag partnership model. |
| · | Eni UK has been awarded a Carbon Dioxide Appraisal
and Storage Licence (CS Licence) for the depleted Hewett gas field, in the Southern North Sea sector of the UK. |
| · | In November, the Callisto's integrated Carbon
Capture and Storage (CCS) project has been included in the European list of Projects of Common Interest (PCI Projects). This project,
which Eni as operator is developing in a JV with Snam, will build a CCS hub in the Ravenna offshore (Italy) leveraging Eni’s depleted
gas fields in the area. |
| · | In October, Eni and the UK Government reached
an agreement in principle on an economic model for the activities of CO2 transportation and storage at the HyNet NorthWest
CCS hub operated by Eni. Hynet NorthWest is expected to be operational around the middle of this decade with an initial storage capacity
of 4.5 mmtonnes/y of CO2. |
| · | In December, Eni Rovuma Basin (Mozambique) announced
the start of vegetable oil production to be used as feedstock in Eni’s biorefineries. The vegetable oil extracted from products
from local agro-processing factories preserve agriculture, while ensuring traceability, respect of human rights and contribution to local
development. |
| · | In December, Eni signed a five-year Sustainability-Linked
revolving credit line worth €3 billion, related to two targets of the Company’s Sustainability-Linked Financing Framework,
lastly updated in April 2023. |
| · | In
December, Eni was ranked as Gold Standard within the Oil and Gas Methane Partnership 2.0 (OGMP 2.0) program as reported in the International
Methane Emissions Observatory (IMEO) published by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP), following Eni's positive assessment
for significantly improving reporting of methane emissions, and for having already complied with the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI)
recommendation of reducing upstream methane emission intensity "well below 0.2%" by 2025. Eni has already achieved this target
thanks to a continuous focus |
| on reducing
fugitive emissions and through projects of methane abatement from venting and flaring. In 2022 this value
stood at 0.08%. |
| |
· | ESG/Climate Ratings: Sustainalytics has maintained
Eni in the “medium risk” band once again in 2023. Eni has been also confirmed first among its peers in terms of number of
aligned metrics in the Climate Action 100+ Net Zero Benchmark evaluation issued in October. Moreover, Eni has been recognized for the
fourth consecutive year by Carbon Tracker's "Absolute Impact 2023" research as the only company among the 25 largest ones in
the Oil & Gas sector to have established climate objectives that meet the prerequisites to be aligned with Paris Agreement. |
| · | Eni announced its financial support to the Global
Flaring and Methane Reduction trust fund (GFMR), a program sponsored by the World Bank to help governments and operators in developing
countries eliminate routine flaring and reduce methane emissions from the O&G sector to near zero by 2030. |
| · | In December, an energy efficiency program was
started in Rwanda through the delivery of improved cookstoves to households in the Nyagatare district. The whole program foresees supply
and monitor 500,000 improved cookstoves during the next 10 years to reduce CO2 emissions and improve health conditions while
cooking. |
| · | In December, Eni signed a voluntary 5-year-term
cooperation agreement with the International Organization for Migration (IOM) to boost youth employment in Libya’s Fezzan region.
The project will involve 850 trainees and will enhance their professional skills creating a stronger workforce in key fields, such as
agribusiness, facilitating their inclusion in the agriculture, construction, and industry sectors, while improving youth prospects through
education, training, and employment services. |
The Company will issue its financial and operating targets for 2024
and its strategic plans at a Capital Markets Day scheduled on March 14, 2024. A press release summarizing the Group’s strategy and
objectives will be issued on the same day and disseminated through the Company’s website (eni.com) and other public channels as
required by applicable listing standards.

(a)
Effective January 1, 2023, the conversion rate of natural gas from cubic feet to boe has been updated to 1 barrel of oil equivalent =
5,232 cubic feet of gas (it was 1 barrel of oil = 5,263 cubic feet of gas).The effect on production has been 5 kboe/d in the fourth quarter
and the full year. Data of the previous 2023 quarters have been restated accordingly.

Prices related to consolidated subsidiaries.
| · | In Q4 ’23 hydrocarbon production averaged
1.71 mln boe/d (1.66 mln boe/d in the FY ’23), up 6% compared to Q4 ’22 (up 3% vs. the FY ’22). Production was supported
by the ramp-up in Mozambique, start-up of the Baleine project in Côte d'Ivoire, higher activity in Algeria, which also benefited
from the business acquisitions, in Kazakhstan due to unplanned events occurred in the same period ’22, as well as in Libya and Indonesia.
These increases were offset by lower production due to mature fields decline. In the sequential comparison production increased by almost
5% due to above mentioned drivers. |
| · | Liquid production was 781 kbbl/d in Q4 ’23
(769 kbbl/d in the FY ’23, up 2% vs. the FY ’22), up 1% compared to Q4 ’22. Production growth in Kazakhstan and Côte
d'Ivoire was partly offset by mature fields decline. |
| · | Natural gas production was 4,851 mmcf/d in Q4
’23 (4,635 in the FY ’23, up 2% vs. the FY ’22), up 10% compared to Q4 ’22. Production increases were reported
in Algeria, Mozambique in relation to the ramp-up of the Coral Floating LNG project, Libya, Indonesia and Kazakhstan, offset by mature
fields decline. |

| ● | In
Q4 ’23, Exploration & Production reported an adjusted operating profit of €2,431
mln, a decrease of 17% compared to Q4 ’22 due to lower crude oil prices in USD (the
marker Brent was down by 5% in the quarter) and lower benchmark gas prices in all geographies,
which negatively affected realized prices of equity production, particularly in Europe, as
well as the appreciation of the EUR/USD exchange rate (up by 5%). These negative trends were
partly offset by positive volumes/mix effects. In the FY ’23, adjusted operating profit
was €9,934 mln, down 40% compared to the FY ’22, due to the same drivers as for
the Q4, higher expensed exploration cost as well as the missing operating profit contribution
of the former Angolan subsidiaries that were contributed to the Azule joint-venture in Q3
’22, whose results are now recognized below the EBIT line. |
Including
the contribution of JV/associates, Q4 ’23 proforma adjusted EBIT was €3.3 bln, down 20% year-on-year (€13.3 bln in the
FY ’23, down 36%).
| ● | In
Q4 ’23, the segment reported an adjusted net profit of €1,423 mln, a decrease
of about 25% compared to Q4 ’22 due to weaker operating performance and lower performance
of investments, particularly Vår Energi (€454 mln in the FY ’23, a decrease
of €497 mln y-o-y). |
In
the FY ’23 tax rate increased by 9 percentage points (over 4 percentage points in Q4 ’23) when compared to the comparative
period due to: (i) the impact of lower oil and gas prices; (ii) the impact of the UK energy profit levy which is recognized as a recurring
item (effective from the Q3 ’22); and (iii) the impact of certain non-deductible tax expenses (i.e. exploration write-offs).

| ● | In
Q4 ’23, the Global Gas & LNG Portfolio segment achieved an adjusted operating profit
of €677 mln reflecting the favorable outcome of an arbitration procedure. The structural
business result, without one-off effects, was substantially in line with the expectations
embedded in our last guidance in a market environment with softer volatility, gas spreads
and price levels. FY ’23 adjusted EBIT was a record €3,247 mln, up by 57% compared
to FY ’22, driven by an optimized natural gas & LNG portfolio and contract renegotiations
benefits while maintaining stability and reliability of supplies to European markets and
compensating for the reduction of Russian volumes. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23 proforma adjusted EBIT including the operating margin of the equity accounted
entities was €717 mln vs. €63 mln in Q4 ’22 (€3,433 mln in the FY ’23
vs. €2,063 mln in the comparative period). |

Redetermined based on the effective biorefinery capacity. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23, the Standard Eni Refining Margin reported an average of 8.1 $/barrel
vs. 13.6 $/barrel reported in the comparative period. On yearly basis, refining margins increased
driven mainly by lower prices of natural gas (10.1 $/barrel in the FY ’23 vs. 8.5 $/barrel
reported in the FY ’22). However, it is noted that under the current circumstances
of narrowing differentials between heavy/sour crudes vs. lighter/sweet grades due to tight
supplies of the former, the SERM does not entirely capture the effective refining margin. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23, throughputs on own accounts at Eni’s refineries in Italy were
4.30 mmtonnes, representing an increase of 15% when compared to the same period of 2022,
reflecting higher volumes processed mainly at the Sannazzaro and Milazzo refineries following
optimization initiatives. In the FY ’23, throughputs amounted to 16.88 mmtonnes, an
increase of 5% vs the same period of 2022 due to the same drivers as of the Q4, partly offset
by higher standstills at the Livorno plant. Throughputs outside Italy decreased compared
to Q4 ’22 (in the FY ’23 throughputs decreased by 5% vs. comparative period)
following lower volumes processed in Germany. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23, bio throughputs were 265 ktonnes, more than doubled compared to the
same period of 2022, benefitting from the Chalmette biorefinery contribution and higher volumes
processed at the Gela and Venice biorefineries. In the FY ’23, bio throughputs increased
by 59% to 866 ktonnes compared to the same period of 2022, thanks to the above-mentioned
Chalmette contribution, as well as higher volumes processed at the Gela biorefinery. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23, retail sales in Italy were 1.32 mmtonnes, down 4% year-on-year, due
to lower sales of gasoil, on the back of decreasing consumptions. In the FY ’23, retail
sales amounted to 5.32 mmtonnes, substantially in line with the FY ’22. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23, wholesale sales in Italy were 1.58 mmtonnes, increasing by 2% compared
to the same period of 2022, mainly due to higher sales of jet fuel. An increasing performance
was also recorded in the FY ’23 at 6.45 mmtonnes: up 4% vs. the FY ’22 for the
above-mentioned driver. |
| ● | Sales
of chemical products were 0.8 mmtonnes in Q4 ’23, a slight decrease compared to
the same period of 2022. In the FY ’23, sales amounted to 3.1 mmtonnes, down 18% vs.
the comparative period due to lower product availability impacted by scheduled downtime at
Marghera and Dunkerque sites. |
| ● | In
Q4 ’23 cracking margin decreased compared to the same period in 2022. Also margins
on polyethylene and styrenics decreased compared to Q4 ’22, due to weak commodity prices. |

| ● | In
Q4 ’23, Enilive delivered an adjusted operating profit of €117 mln, up
by 5% compared to the adjusted operating profit of the Q4 ’22 (up 8% in the FY ’23
at €728 mln), thanks to resilient Marketing performance. |
| ● | The
Refining business reported an adjusted operating profit of €33 mln in Q4 ’23
compared to a profit of €355 mln in Q4 ’22 (in the FY ’23 reported an adjusted
operating profit of €441 mln, compared to a profit of €1,511 mln in the FY ’22).
Q4 ’23 deterioration reflected narrowing differentials between heavy/sour vs. light/sweet
crude qualities and product crack spreads, partly offset by reduced energy expenses driven
by a fall in natural gas prices, while comparison with the year-ago quarter reflected exceptionally
strong refining margins at that time. |
| ● | The
Chemicals business, managed by Versalis, reported an adjusted operating loss of €237
mln in Q4 ’23, significantly larger than the one incurred in Q4 ’22. Results
were negatively affected by lower demand across all business segments driven by a slowdown
in the macro environment and comparatively higher production costs in Europe for energy inputs,
which reduced the competitiveness of Versalis productions with respect to US and Asian players
in an oversupplied market. In the FY ’23, the adjusted operating result was a loss
of €614 mln (loss of €254 mln in the FY ’22) reflecting the exceptionally
adverse market conditions described for the quarter. |
In Q4 ’23
Enilive, Refining and Chemicals proforma adjusted EBIT including the operating margin of the equity accounted entities was a negative
€0.03 bln vs. €0.56 bln in Q4 ’22 (€0.96 bln in the FY ’23 vs. €2.45 bln in the comparative period).

| ● | As
of December 31, 2023, retail and business customers were 10.1 mln (gas and electricity),
in line compared to December 31, 2022. |
| ● | Retail
and business gas sales amounted to 1.74 bcm in Q4 ’23, down by 6% compared to the
same period in 2022, mainly due to reduced market demand. In the FY ’23, gas sales
amounted to 6.06 bcm, decreasing by 11% vs. the comparative period, due to the same driver
as for the quarter. |
| ● | Retail
and business power sales to end customers were 4.6 TWh in the Q4 ’23, a 4% increase
compared to Q4 ’22 mainly due to the increased customer base in Italy. In the FY '23
power sales decreased by 4% compared to FY ’22 mainly due to lower consumptions. |
| ● | As
of December 31, 2023, the installed capacity from renewables was 3 GW, up by approximately
0.8 GW compared to December 31, 2022, mainly thanks to the acquisitions in Spain (Bonete)
and in the USA (Kellam) and to the organic development in Italy, in Spain and Kazakhstan,
as well as the acquisition of 3 photovoltaic plants in the USA with a total capacity of about
0.38 GW which was signed just at year-end. |
| ● | Energy
production from renewable sources (0.99 TWh in Q4 ’23) up by 51%, mainly thanks
to the contribution from acquired assets in operation and the start-up of organic projects.
In the FY ’23, production from renewable sources amounted to 3.98 TWh, increasing by
56% vs. 2022, due to the same driver as for the quarter. |
| ● | EV
charging points as of December 31, 2023, amounted to 19 thousand, up by 45% compared
to 13.1 thousand as of December 31, 2022, in line with the enhancing plan of our network. |
| ● | Power
sales in the open market were 4.97 TWh in Q4 ’23, down 2% year-on-year mainly due
to lower volumes to the wholesalers; 19.88 TWh in the FY ’23, representing a reduction
of 11% year-on-year due to lower volumes marketed to power exchange and to wholesalers. |

| ● | In
Q4 ’23 Plenitude reported an adjusted operating profit of €70 mln achieved
thanks to good results on retail business and to the ramp-up in renewable installed
capacity and production volumes, confirming the value of the integrated business model, which
allowed to fully capture scenario dynamics. In the FY ’23, adjusted operating
profit was €515 mln, representing an increase of €170 mln year-on-year due to the
same drivers as for the fourth quarter. |
| ● | The
Power generation business from gas-fired plants reported an adjusted operating profit
of €41 mln in Q4 ’23, barely unchanged compared to the same period in 2022. In
the FY ’23, adjusted operating result was €166 mln, down €104 mln compared
to the FY ’22 which benefitted from a particularly favorable price scenario. |

| · | In
Q4 ’23, the Group reported an adjusted operating profit of €2,769 mln,
down 23% compared to Q4 ’22, driven by a lower E&P result (down 17% to €2,431
mln) due to a reduction in crude oil and natural gas prices, the underperformance of the
Chemical business (with a loss of €237 mln) reflecting a slowdown in demand and cost
disadvantages, and finally a significantly deteriorated refining scenario leading to a sharp
contraction of Refining Ebit (down by €322 mln). These negatives were partly offset
by a record GGP performance (up by €614 mln). In the FY ’23, the Group reported
an adjusted operating profit of €13,805 mln, down 32% compared to the FY ’22,
due to lower E&P segment performance, also reflecting the reclassification of Angolan
subsidiaries to equity accounted entities as the Azule joint-venture became operational in
Q4 ’22, lowering results from Refining and Chemical businesses partly offset by the
performance at GGP segment and solid results of Enilive and Plenitude & Power businesses. |
| · | In
Q4 ’23 adjusted net profit attributable to Eni shareholders was €1,638
mln, €855 mln lower than the Q4 ’22, or 34%, due to lower operating profit and
results at JV and associates, partly offset by decreasing financial expenses mainly driven
by the positive effect of a declining yield curve on the fair value of financial assets held
for trading at year end, as well as by higher interest income due to increased average interest
rates on cash deposit balances for the year compared to the effect on fixed-rate financial
liabilities. In the FY ’23, the Group reported an adjusted net result of €8,298
mln, down 38% compared to the FY ’22. |
| · | Group’s
tax rate: the adjusted tax rate increased by 5 percentage points both in the quarter
and the FY compared to the same periods ’22, to 47.6% and 44.5% in the Q4 and the FY
’23 respectively, as a result of the impact of the UK energy profit levy (effective
from the third quarter ’22), adverse scenario effects and the impact of E&P non-deductible
expenses particularly the write-off of exploration expenses. This was partly offset by a
higher proportion of the taxable profit earned by Italian subsidiaries. |

Includes payables due to suppliers recognized as financing payables because of the deferral of payment terms and incurred in connection
with expenditures to purchase plant and equipment (€966 million and €61 million in the full year 2023 and 2022, respectively,
€294 million and €22 million in the fourth quarter 2023 and 2022, respectively and €483 million in the third quarter 2023).
Net cash provided by operating activities in the FY ’23
reached €15,119 mln and included €2,255 mln of dividends distributed from investments, mainly Azule Energy, Vår Energi
and Adnoc R&T and was impacted by lower amount of trade receivables due in subsequent reporting periods divested to financing institutions,
down by approximately €0.5 bln compared to the amount divested at the end of 2022.
Cash flow from operating activities before changes in working
capital at replacement cost was €16,498 mln in the FY ’23 and was net of the following items: inventory holding gains or
losses relating to oil and products, the reversing timing difference between gas inventories accounted at weighted average cost and management’s
own measure of performance leveraging inventories to optimize margin, the fair value of commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria
to be designated as hedges or prorated on an accrual basis, and extraordinary risk provisions (like in the case of refinery decommissioning
provisions or for expected credit losses relating to exceptional non-commercial issues). It also excluded €0.4 bln cash-out relating
to an Italian extraordinary tax contribution enacted by the Italian Budget Law for 2023, calculated on the pre-tax income 2022 and accrued
in the financial statements 2022.

Organic
capex was €9.2 bln in the FY ’23 (up 11% year on year) due to the ramp-up of natural gas and LNG projects to boost energy
security, as well as the Baleine project in Côte d’Ivoire, and comprised capital contributions to investees that are executing
capital projects of interest to Eni. Net of organic capex, the free cash flow ante working capital was €7.3 bln (€1.2 bln in
the quarter).
Cash
outflows for acquisitions net of divestments were about €2.4 bln and mainly related to the acquisition of bp’s natural
gas activities in Algeria, an interest in the St. Bernard (Chalmette) biorefinery in US, Plenitude’s renewable assets and the final
price installment of the acquisition of PLT group made late in 2022, partly offset by the divestment of a 49.9% stake in the equity interests
of Eni’s subsidiaries managing the TTPC/Transmed pipelines following the deal with Snam and other non-strategic assets.
Net
financial borrowings before IFRS 16 increased by around €3.9 bln due to the adjusted operating cash flow (€16.5 bln), capex
requirements of €9.2 bln, working capital needs (€1 bln), dividend payments to Eni’s shareholders and share repurchases
of €4.8 bln, the cash outflow related to acquisitions and divestments (€2.4 bln), other investing activities and other changes
(€1.5 bln), as well as the payment of lease liabilities and hybrid bond interest (€1.1 bln) and of cash-out relating to an
Italian extraordinary tax contribution (€0.4 bln).

As
of December 31, 2023, fixed assets (€83.3 bln) increased by €2.2 bln from December 31, 2022, due to capital expenditure
and acquisitions of subsidiaries (the deal in Algeria and Novamont control acquisition) and equity investments (mainly a 50% of the Chalmette
biorefinery in US). These increases were offset by negative exchange rate translation differences (the period-end exchange rate of EUR
vs. USD was 1.105, up 4% compared to 1.067 as of December 31, 2022, thus reducing the book values of dollar-denominated assets) and DD&A,
impairment charges and write-offs.
Net
working capital (-€13.4 bln) decreased by €0.2 bln from December 31, 2022. The lower value of oil, natural gas and product
inventories due to the weighted-average cost method of accounting in an environment of declining prices (down by €1.5 bln) as well
as an increase in other current liabilities net (down €1.3 bln) due to fair value changes of derivative instruments were partly
offset by a decreased balance between trade receivables and trade payables (€2 bln).
Shareholders’
equity (€53.6 bln) decreased by €1.6 bln compared to December 31, 2022, due to the net profit for the period (€4.8
bln), the positive change in the cash flow hedge reserve of €0.5 bln, partly offset by negative foreign currency translation differences
(about €2 bln) reflecting the depreciation of the USD vs. the Euro as well as dividends paid to shareholders (€3 bln) and share
repurchases (€1.8 bln).
Net
borrowings3 before lease liabilities as of December 31, 2023, amounted to €10.9 bln, up by approximately €3.9
bln from December 31, 2022.

Details on net borrowings are furnished on page 29.
Leverage4–
the ratio of the borrowings to total equity calculated before the impact of IFRS 16 – was 0.20 on December 31, 2023 (compared to
0.13 as of December 31, 2022).
Special
items
The
breakdown of special items recorded in operating profit by segment (net charges of €4,986 mln and €1,710 mln in the
FY ’23 and Q4 ’23, respectively) is as follows:
| · | E&P:
net charges of €1,385 mln in the FY ’23 (net charges of €968 mln in Q4
‘23) mainly related to impairment losses of €1,037 mln recorded at certain Italian
gas properties driven by lower natural gas prices, at certain oil and gas USA properties
following reserve revisions, credit loss provisions (€129 mln in the FY ’23),
environmental charges (€81 mln in the FY ‘23) as well as provision for redundancy
incentives (€40 mln in the FY ’23). |
| · | GGP:
net charges of €816 mln in the FY ’23 (net gains of €616 mln in Q4 ‘23)
relating to the accounting effect of certain fair-valued commodity derivatives lacking the
formal criteria to be classified as hedges or to be elected under the own use exemption (charges
of €97 mln in the FY ’23, gains of €277 mln in Q4 ’23); and the difference
between the value of gas inventories accounted for under the weighted-average cost method
provided by IFRS and management’s own measure of inventories, which moves forward at
the time of inventory drawdown, the margins captured on volumes in inventories above normal
levels leveraging the seasonal spread in gas prices net of the effects of the associated
commodity derivatives (charges of €655 mln in the FY ’23 and gains of €375
mln in Q4 ’23, respectively). |
| · | Enilive,
Refining and Chemicals: net charges of €1,348 mln in the FY ’23 (net charges
of €976 mln in Q4 ‘23) mainly related to impairment losses of chemical plants
to reflect a reduced profitability outlook following a worsening trading environment (€405
mln in both the FY ‘23 and Q4 ’23), the write-down of capital expenditures made
for compliance and stay-in-business at certain CGU with expected negative cash flows in the
Refining business (€359 mln and €132 mln in the FY ’23 and Q4 ’23,
respectively), environmental provisions (€373 mln and €233 mln in the FY ‘23
and Q4 ’23), and provision for redundancy incentives (€46 mln and €37 mln
in the FY ’23 and Q4 ’23, respectively). |
| · | Plenitude
& Power: net charges of €1,145 mln in the FY ‘23 (net charges €289
mln in Q4 ‘23) mainly related to the fair values of commodity derivatives lacking the
formal criteria to be classified as hedges under IFRS, and, to a lower extent, some derivatives
part of a general annual hedging program prorated over the 2023 quarters. |
The
other special items in the FY ’23 related to a gain of €0.8 bln (including the fair value evaluation of stake retained in
the company) in connection to the sale of a 49.9% stake in the equity interests of Eni’s subsidiaries managing the TTPC/Transmed
pipelines and the relevant transportation rights of natural gas volumes imported from Algeria following the agreement with Snam SpA.

Other
information, basis of presentation and disclaimer
This
press release on Eni’s results for the fourth quarter and the full year of 2023 has been prepared on a voluntary basis according
to article 82-ter, Regulations on issuers (CONSOB Regulation No. 11971 of May 14, 1999, and subsequent amendments and inclusions). The
disclosure of results and business trends on a quarterly basis is consistent with Eni’s policy to provide the market and investors
with regular information about the Company’s financial and industrial performances and business prospects considering the reporting
policy followed by oil&gas peers who are communicating results on quarterly basis.
Results
and cash flow are presented for the third and fourth quarter of 2023, the full year of 2023 and for the 2022 comparative period. Information
on the Company’s financial position relates to end of the periods as of December 31, 2023 and December 31, 2022.
Accounts
set forth herein have been prepared in accordance with the evaluation and recognition criteria set by the International Financial Reporting
Standards (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and adopted by the European Commission according to the
procedure set forth in Article 6 of the European Regulation (CE) No. 1606/2002 of the European Parliament and European Council of July
19, 2002.
These
criteria are unchanged from the 2022 Annual Report on Form 20-F filed with the US SEC on April 5, 2023, which investors are urged to
read.
Effective
January 1, 2023, Eni has updated the conversion rate of gas produced to 5,232 cubic feet of gas equals 1 barrel of oil equivalent (it
was 5,263 cubic feet of gas per barrel in previous reporting periods). This update reflected changes in volumes and Eni’s gas properties
that took place in the last years and was assessed by collecting data on the heating value of gas in Eni’s gas fields currently
on stream. The effect of this update on production expressed in boe was 5 kboe/d for the fourth quarter and the full year. Other
per-boe indicators were only marginally affected by the update (e.g. realized prices, costs per boe) and also negligible was the impact
on depletion charges. Other oil companies may use different conversion rates.
Basis
of presentation
Following
the establishment of Enilive (Eni Sustainable Mobility business) effective January 1, 2023, that operates Eni’s biorefineries and
the retail marketing of fuels and of smart mobility solutions, the management has resolved to break-down the adjusted EBIT of the former
reporting segment Refining & Marketing “R&M” into two operating sub-segments:
The
re-segmentation of the adjusted EBIT of R&M for the comparative periods of 2022 is disclosed below:

The
manager responsible for the preparation of the Company’s financial reports, Francesco Esposito, declares pursuant to rule 154-bis

Disclaimer
This
press release contains certain forward-looking statements particularly those regarding capital expenditure, development and management
of oil and gas resources, dividends, share repurchases, allocation of future cash flow from operations, future operating performance,
gearing, targets of production and sales growth, new markets and the progress and timing of projects. By their nature, forward-looking
statements involve risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that will or may occur in the future.
Actual results may differ from those expressed in such statements, depending on a variety of factors, including the impact of the pandemic
disease, the timing of bringing new fields on stream; management’s ability in carrying out industrial plans and in succeeding in
commercial transactions; future levels of industry product supply; demand and pricing; operational issues; general economic conditions;
political stability and economic growth in relevant areas of the world; changes in laws and governmental regulations; development and
use of new technology; changes in public expectations and other changes in business conditions; the actions of competitors and other
factors discussed elsewhere in this document. Due to the seasonality in demand for natural gas and certain refined products and the changes
in a number of external factors affecting Eni’s operations, such as prices and margins of hydrocarbons and refined products, Eni’s
results from operations and changes in net borrowings for the quarter of the year cannot be extrapolated on an annual basis.
The
all sources reserve replacement ratio disclosed elsewhere in this press release is calculated as ratio of changes in proved reserves
for the year resulting from revisions of previously reported reserves, improved recovery, extensions, discoveries and sales or purchases
of minerals in place, to production for the year. A ratio higher than 100% indicates that more proved reserves were added than produced
in a year. The reserves replacement ratio (RRR) is a measure used by management to indicate the extent to which production is replaced
by proved oil and gas reserves. The RRR is not an indicator of future production because the ultimate development and production of reserves
is subject to a number of risks and uncertainties. These include the risks associated with the successful completion of large-scale projects,
including addressing ongoing regulatory issues and completion of infrastructure, as well as changes in oil and gas prices, political
risks and geological and other environmental risks.
Eni’s
results for the full-year 2023 will be updated following issuance of Saipem’s 2023 results.

Alternative performance indicators (Non-GAAP measures) |
Management
evaluates underlying business performance on the basis of Non-GAAP financial measures, which are not provided by IFRS (“Alternative
performance measures”), such as adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit, which are arrived at by excluding from reported
results certain gains and losses, defined special items, which include, among others, asset impairments, including impairments of deferred
tax assets, gains on disposals, risk provisions, restructuring charges, the accounting effect of fair-valued derivatives used to hedge
exposure to the commodity, exchange rate and interest rate risks, which lack the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges, and analogously
evaluation effects of assets and liabilities utilized in a relation of natural hedge of the above mentioned market risks. Furthermore,
in determining the business segments’ adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income are excluded (see below).
In determining adjusted results, inventory holding gains or losses are excluded from base business performance, which is the difference
between the cost of sales of the volumes sold in the period based on the cost of supplies of the same period and the cost of sales of
the volumes sold calculated using the weighted average cost method of inventory accounting as required by IFRS, except in those business
segments where inventories are utilized as a lever to optimize margins. Finally, the same special charges/gains are excluded from the
Eni’s share of results at JVs and other equity accounted entities, including any profit/loss on inventory holding.
Management
is disclosing Non-GAAP measures of performance to facilitate a comparison of base business performance across periods, and to allow financial
analysts to evaluate Eni’s trading performance on the basis of their forecasting models.
Non-GAAP
financial measures should be read together with information determined by applying IFRS and do not stand in for them. Other companies
may adopt different methodologies to determine Non-GAAP measures.
Follows
the description of the main alternative performance measures adopted by Eni. The measures reported below refer to the performance of
the reporting periods disclosed in this press release:
Adjusted
operating and net profit
Adjusted
operating profit and adjusted net profit are determined by excluding inventory holding gains or losses, special items and, in determining
the business segments’ adjusted results, finance charges on finance debt and interest income. The adjusted operating profit of
each business segment reports gains and losses on derivative financial instruments entered into to manage exposure to movements in foreign
currency exchange rates, which impact industrial margins and translation of commercial payables and receivables. Accordingly, also currency
translation effects recorded through profit and loss are reported within business segments’ adjusted operating profit. The taxation
effect of the items excluded from adjusted operating or net profit is determined based on the specific rate of taxes applicable to each
of them.
Finance
charges or income related to net borrowings excluded from the adjusted net profit of business segments are comprised of interest charges
on finance debt and interest income earned on cash and cash equivalents not related to operations. Therefore, the adjusted net profit
of business segments includes finance charges or income deriving from certain segment operated assets, i.e., interest income on certain
receivable financing and securities related to operations and finance charge pertaining to the accretion of certain provisions recorded
on a discounted basis (as in the case of the asset retirement obligations in the Exploration & Production segment).
Inventory
holding gain or loss
This is
the difference between the cost of sales of the volumes sold in the period based on the cost of supplies of the same period and the cost
of sales of the volumes sold calculated using the weighted average cost method of inventory accounting as required by IFRS.
Special
items
These include
certain significant income or charges pertaining to either: (i) infrequent or unusual events and transactions, being identified as non-recurring
items under such circumstances; (ii) certain events or transactions which are not considered to be representative of the ordinary course
of business, as in the case of environmental provisions, restructuring charges, asset impairments or write ups and gains or losses on
divestments even though they occurred in past periods or are likely to occur in future ones. Exchange rate differences and derivatives
relating to industrial activities and commercial payables and receivables, particularly exchange rate derivatives to manage commodity
pricing formulas which are quoted in a currency other than the functional currency are reclassified in operating profit with a corresponding
adjustment to net finance charges, notwithstanding the handling of foreign currency exchange risks is made centrally by netting off naturally-occurring
opposite positions and then dealing with any residual risk exposure in the derivative market. Finally, special items include the accounting
effects of fair-valued commodity derivatives relating to commercial exposures, in addition to those which lack the criteria to be designed
as hedges, also those which are not eligible for the own use exemption, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, as well
as the accounting effects of settled commodity and exchange rates derivatives whenever it is deemed that the underlying transaction is
expected to occur in future reporting periods.
Correspondently,
special charges/gains also include the evaluation effects relating to assets/liabilities utilized in a natural hedge relation to offset
a market risk, as in the case of accrued currency differences at finance debt denominated in a currency other than the reporting currency,
where the cash outflows for the reimbursement are matched by highly probable cash inflows in the same currency. The deferral of both
the unrealized portion of fair-valued commodity and other derivatives and evaluation effects are reversed to future reporting periods
when the underlying transaction occurs.
As provided
for in Decision No. 15519 of July 27, 2006 of the Italian market regulator (CONSOB), non-recurring material income or charges are to
be clearly reported in the management’s discussion and financial tables.
Leverage
Leverage
is a Non-GAAP measure of the Company’s financial condition, calculated as the ratio between net borrowings and shareholders’
equity, including non-controlling interest. Leverage is the reference ratio to assess the solidity and efficiency of the Group balance
sheet in terms of incidence of funding sources including third-party funding and equity as well as to carry out benchmark analysis with
industry standards.
Gearing
Gearing
is calculated as the ratio between net borrowings and capital employed net and measures how much of capital employed net is financed
recurring to third-party funding.
Cash
flow from operations before changes in working capital at replacement cost
This is
defined as net cash provided from operating activities before changes in working capital at replacement cost. It also excludes certain
non-recurring charges such as extraordinary credit allowances and, considering the high market volatility, changes in the fair value
of commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be designed as hedges, including derivatives which were not eligible for the
own use exemption, the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges, as well as the effects of certain settled commodity derivatives whenever
it is deemed that the underlying transaction is expected to occur in future reporting periods.
Free
cash flow
Free cash
flow represents the link existing between changes in cash and cash equivalents (deriving from the statutory cash flows statement) and
in net borrowings (deriving from the summarized cash flow statement) that occurred from the beginning of the period to the end of period.
Free cash flow is the cash in excess of capital expenditure needs. Starting from free cash flow it is possible to determine either: (i)
changes in cash and cash equivalents for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to financing debts/receivables (issuance/repayment
of debt and receivables related to financing activities), shareholders’
equity
(dividends paid, net repurchase of own shares, capital issuance) and the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate
differences; (ii) changes in net borrowings for the period by adding/deducting cash flows relating to shareholders’ equity and
the effect of changes in consolidation and of exchange rate differences.
Net
borrowings
Net borrowings
is calculated as total finance debt less cash, cash equivalents, financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss and financing
receivables held for non-operating purposes. Financial activities are qualified as “not related to operations” when these
are not strictly related to the business operations.

Leverage and net borrowings |
Leverage
is a measure used by management to assess the Company’s level of indebtedness. It is calculated as a ratio of net borrowings to
shareholders’ equity, including non-controlling interest. Management periodically reviews leverage in order to assess the soundness
and efficiency of the Group balance sheet in terms of optimal mix between net borrowings and net equity, and to carry out benchmark analysis
with industry standards.

| · | TRIR
(Total recordable injury rate) of the workforce amounted to 0.40, decreasing when compared
to 2022, due to lower number of injury events occurred to the contractors. When compared
to 2014, TRIR was down 42%. |
| · | Direct
GHG emissions (Scope 1) amounted to 38.7 million tonnes of CO2eq, reporting
a slight decrease compared to 2022, mainly due to lower emissions in the Chemical, Power
and GGP businesses, partly offset by increases in the Exploration & Production segment.
|
| · | Direct
methane emissions (Scope 1) decreasing compared to 2022 thanks to the continuous monitoring
and maintenance campaigns of fugitive emissions in the Upstream asset in line with the requirements
of the Oil & Gas Methane Partnership 2.0, as well as reflecting changes from portfolio
activities. |
| · | Volumes
of hydrocarbon sent to routing flaring reported a reduction compared to 2022, mainly
thanks to the launch of flaring down projects in Egypt (Agiba), Nigeria (NAOC) and Ghana. |
| · | Total
volume of oil spills: increased when compared to 2022 mainly due to an operational spill
of fuel oil, fully recovered. Overall, the volume of oil spills from sabotage reports a decreasing
trend, notwithstanding the increased number of occurrences in Nigeria. |
| · | Re-injected
production water increasing when compared to 2022, mainly due to the Libya’s contribution.
