Eni starts production at Perla giant gas field offshore Venezuela
San Donato Milanese (Milan), July 6, 2015 - Eni has started production of the giant gas field Perla, located in the Gulf of Venezuela, 50 kilometers offshore. The first production well has been opened and is currently in the clean-up phase.
The field is located in the Cardón IV Block operated by "Cardón IV SA", a company jointly owned by Eni (50%) and Repsol (50%). Perla is the largest offshore gas field discovered to date in Latin America and the first gas field to be brought to production offshore Venezuela. This was achieved through close and successful cooperation between the Venezuelan Ministry of Petroleum and Mining, PDVSA, Cardón IV and its Shareholders.
Perla currently holds 17 trillion cubic feet (Tcf) of gas in place, which corresponds to 3.1 billion of barrels of oil equivalent (boe), with additional potential. The reservoir consists of Mio-Oligocene age carbonates with excellent characteristics, located at approximately 3,000 meters below sea level, at a water depth of 60 meters. The best wells are estimated to produce over 150 million standard cubic feet per day (Mscfd) each.
- 1 -
The development of Perla has been planned in three phases to optimize time to market and investment pace: Phase 1 (Early Production) has a production plateau of about 450 Mscfd (corresponding to approx. 40,000 boed net to Eni) increased from the 300 Mscfd initially planned, Phase 2 has a plateau of 800 Mscfd from 2017 (corresponding to approx. 73,000 boed net to Eni) and Phase 3 has a plateau of 1,200 Mscfd from 2020 (corresponding to approx. 110,000 boed net to Eni).
Eni CEO, Claudio Descalzi, commented: "Eni has reached another milestone with the production start-up of the Perla offshore field, in line with the timing presented to the market in March during the Strategy presentation. Perla was for Eni one of the most significant start-up projects of 2015, and the today result confirms the validity of our development model that allowed us to reach production in an industry-leading time to market".
The development plan includes four light offshore platforms linked by a 30" pipeline to a Central Processing Facility (CPF) located onshore at Punto Fijo (Paraguaná Peninsula) and 21 producer wells. In the CPF two treatment trains have been installed with the capability of handling 150 Mscfd and 300 Mscfd each.
The development of the field, discovered in late 2009, was completed in 5 years, an industry-leading time to market. This excellent performance was achieved thanks to an extensive use of pre-pack modules in the realization of the onshore gas treatment trains, in order to minimize construction works.
Cardón IV signed a Gas Sales Agreement with PDVSA for all
three phases, until 2036.
The gas will be mainly used by PDVSA for the domestic market.
Enis other operations in Venezuela include the Junín-5 heavy oil block (PDVSA 60%, Eni 40%), located in the Orinoco Oil Belt, which holds 35 billion barrels of certified oil in place. Junín-5 production started in March 2013. In addition, Eni holds a 26% stake in
- 2 -
PetroSucre, the operating company which operates the offshore Corocoro oil field (PDVSA holds the remaining 74%). Enis current net production in Venezuela is approximately 12,000 boed and is expected to exceed 50,000 boed by year end, mainly due to the increase in production from Perla.

Eni: the appointment of a new Board Director
San Donato Milanese (Milan), July 29, 2015 - The Board of Directors of Eni has today co-opted Alessandro Profumo as Director replacing Luigi Zingales, who resigned on July 2, 2015.
The Nomination Committee supported the Board in the
evaluations.
Alessandro Profumo is a non-executive, independent Director and
now he is not a member of any internal committee.
With reference to Director Alessandro Profumos marriage to
a company employee, the Board of Directors, confirming the
evaluation of the previous Board, has stated that this
relationship does not compromise the independence requirements of
the Corporate Governance Code, taking into account the ethical
scrupulousness and professional and international reputation of
the Director and the fact that his spouse is employed at a
foundation, which is independent of Eni SpA.
Regarding the office of Chairman held by Alessandro Profumo in
Banca Monte dei Paschi di Siena SpA, the relationship between
this office and Eni does not impair the Directors
independence requirements, insofar as it is not relevant in
scope; the office will terminate however on August 6, 2015.
His curriculum vitae is available on the Companys website www.eni.com
under the section "Governance/Board of Directors".
Alessandro Profumo holds no shares in Eni.

Claudio Descalzi, Chief Executive Officer, commented:
"In the first half of the year we have achieved excellent industrial results across our businesses, which enable us to revise upwards several of the targets set out in the strategic plan presented in March. In upstream we delivered record production growth and we have significantly contained costs. Furthermore, the recent start-up of production in the Perla field in Venezuela, and forthcoming start-up of Goliat in Norway will provide an important contribution in the second half. The mid-downstream businesses all reached profitability, thanks to the strong progress we have made in restructuring our refineries and petrochemical plants, successful renegotiations of gas contracts and further interventions on efficiency. These actions have helped to contain the impact of the fall in hydrocarbons prices, both in terms of economics and cash generation. Despite the halving of oil prices, we have generated euro 5.7 billion of cash flow, in line with the first half of 2014, which has financed almost all capital investment in the half year. This is a very significant result, given that self-financing investment is the main challenge facing the sector today. These better than expected results enable me to confirm the proposal of an interim dividend of euro 0.40 per share to the Board of Directors, on September 17".
At the same time as reviewing this press release, the Board has approved the interim consolidated report as of June 30, 2015, which has been prepared in accordance to Italian listing standards as per Article 154-ter of the Code for securities and exchanges (Testo Unico della Finanza). The document was immediately submitted to the Companys external auditor. Publication of the interim consolidated report is scheduled within the terms of law alongside completion of the auditors review.

Adjusted operating profit
In the second quarter of 2015, Eni reported adjusted
consolidated operating profit excluding Saipem (which reported a
loss of euro 0.74 billion) of euro 1.50 billion, down by 41% from
the second quarter of 2014. This was due to a lower performance
of the Exploration & Production segment (down by euro 1.5
billion, or 49%) driven by sharply lower oil prices (down by
approximately 44%), partly offset by production growth, cost
efficiencies and the depreciation of the euro against the dollar
(down by 19%). The lower E&P result was partially offset by
the significant improvement in Refining & Marketing and
Chemicals (up by euro 0.36 billion), with the combination of
efficiency and optimization gains and ongoing margin recovery
supporting a return to profitability in the segment.
Saipem reported an adjusted operating loss of euro 0.74 billion
following write-downs of pending revenues and trade receivables,
due to the weak oil price environment.
Group consolidated adjusted operating profit for the second
quarter of 2015 was euro 0.76 billion, a decrease of 72%, driven
by the negative impact of the scenario for euro 1.6 billion,
partly offset by production growth and efficiency gains for euro
0.6 billion.
In the first half of 2015, Eni reported adjusted consolidated
operating profit excluding Saipem (down euro 0.58 billion) of
euro 2.91 billion, down by 51%. The reduction was driven by a 61%
decline in Exploration & Production (down by euro 3.9
billion), impacted by sharply lower oil prices, and partly offset
by improved results in Refining & Marketing and Chemicals (up
by euro 0.8 billion) and, to a lesser extent, Gas & Power (up
by euro 0.07 billion).
Group consolidated adjusted operating profit for the first half
of 2015 was euro 2.33 billion, decreasing by 63%, driven by the
negative impact of the scenario for euro 3.8 billion, partly
offset by production growth and efficiency gains for euro 0.8
billion.
- 2 -
Adjusted net profit
In the second quarter of 2015, adjusted net profit excluding
Saipem was euro 0.45 billion, declining by 46% from the second
quarter of 2014. The reduction was driven by lower operating
profit and a loss recorded from fair-valued interests in Snam and
Galp (down by euro 53 million compared to a gain of euro 99
million in the year-ago quarter). Another driver was the
Groups higher adjusted tax rate, which increased by
approximately 2 percentage points. This was due to the
aforementioned interest losses, which are non-taxable items, and
because of the greater contribution to taxable profit of
subsidiaries in countries with higher rates of taxes. These
effects were partly offset by the lower contribution of the
Exploration & Production segment to Group profit before tax.
Group consolidated adjusted net profit for the second quarter of
2015 was euro 0.14 billion, decreasing by 84%; tax rate increased
to 147% reflecting the non-taxable write-downs of Saipem.
In the first half of 2015, adjusted net profit excluding Saipem
amounted to euro 1.05 billion decreasing by 47% (down by euro
0.93 billion) from the same period of the previous year.
Group consolidated adjusted net profit for the first half of 2015
was euro 0.79 billion, decreasing by 62%; the tax rate increased
to 83%.
Operating cash flow
In the first half of 2015, cash flow from operating activities of
euro 5.68 billion and divestment proceeds of euro 0.64 billion
funded a large proportion of the Groups dividend payments
(euro 2.02 billion) and capital expenditure incurred in the
period (euro 6.24 billion); the rest was funded by increased net
borrowings3 of euro 2.79 billion to euro 16.48
billion, as of June 30, 2015.
Compared to March 31, 2015, net borrowings increased by euro 1.34
billion due to cash outflows relating to the balance dividend for
2014 and capital expenditure incurred in the quarter. These were
partially offset by cash flow from operations (euro 3.37 billion)
which was negatively influenced by lower receivables due beyond
the end of the reporting period, being transferred to financing
institutions compared to the amount transferred at the end of the
previous reporting period (down by euro 0.26 billion from March
31, 2015).
As of June 30, 2015, the ratio of net borrowings to
shareholders equity including non-controlling interest
leverage4 increased to 0.26, compared to
0.22 as of December 31, 2014. This increase was due to greater
net borrowings partly offset by higher total equity, which was
helped by a sizable appreciation of the US dollar against the
euro in the translation of the financial statements of Enis
subsidiaries that uses the US dollar as functional currency,
resulting in an equity gain of euro 3.5 billion. The US dollar
was up by 7.8% against the euro at the closing rates of June 30,
2015 compared to December 31, 2014. Leverage increased by 0.04
when compared to March 31, 2015, also reflecting a partial
absorption of trends in the euro-dollar exchange rate (the euro
appreciated by 4% at June 30, 2015 compared to the closing of the
previous reporting period at March 31, 2015), resulting in a
negative currency translation difference of euro 1.8 billion.
Interim dividend 2015
In light of the financial results achieved for the
first half of 2015 and managements expectations for the
full-year results, the interim dividend proposal to the Board of
Directors on September 17, 2015, will amount to euro 0.40 per
share5 (euro 0.56 per share in 2014). The interim
dividend is payable on September 23, 2015, with September 21,
2015 being the ex-dividend date.

Exploration & Production
In the second quarter of 2015, Enis hydrocarbon production
was 1.754 million boe/d, up by 10.7% y-o-y (1.726 million boe/d
in the first half of 2015, up by 9%). When excluding price
effects in the Companys Production Sharing Agreements
(PSAs), production grew by 7.1% in the second quarter and 5.2% in
the first half of 2015. This was driven by new production
start-ups and continuing ramp-ups at fields started in late 2014
mainly in Angola, Congo, United States, Egypt and the United
Kingdom. It was also due to better performance in Libya. The
increases were partially offset by mature field declines.
Gas & Power
In the second quarter of 2015, natural gas sales amounted to
22.39 bcm, up by 3.30 bcm, or 17.3% compared to the same period
of 2014. Sales in Italy (10.58 bcm) increased by 45.5% driven by
higher sales to hub (Italian exchange for gas and spot markets)
and higher volumes marketed in the residential market due to more
favorable weather conditions. These increases were partially
offset by lower volumes to the wholesale and power generation
segments. Sales in the European markets were 8.37 bcm, decreasing
by 7.1% from the second quarter of 2014, mainly in Germany due to
the divestment of the GVS interest and in Benelux due to lower
sales to wholesalers. In the first half of 2015 sales of 48.01
bcm increased by 4.7%.
Refining & Marketing
In the second quarter of 2015, the Standard Eni Refining
Margin (SERM) rebounded strongly from the particularly depressed
level of the second quarter of 2014 (up by 300%). This trend
reflected lower crude oil feedstock prices, the short-term impact
of capacity shutdowns in Europe and a shortage of products in
certain areas reflecting refineries downtime. However, structural
headwinds in the European refining sector remain due to sluggish
demand, overcapacity and increasing competitive pressure from
cheaper streams of products imported from Russia, Asia and the
United States. In the second quarter of 2015, retail sales in
Italy were 1.50 mmtonnes, down by 6.2% because of continuing
competitive pressure. Enis retail market share dropped by
1.9 percentage points to 24.3% in the second quarter of 2015,
compared to 26.2% in the same quarter of the previous year.
Retail sales in the rest of Europe in the second quarter of 2015
were broadly the same.
Chemicals
The Chemical business benefited from the turnaround programs
and business reconversion deployed in previous years. Results
also reflected the shortage of certain commodities due to
unplanned facilities downtimes, which determined a partial
recovery of margins mainly in ethylene, polyethylene and styrene,
on the back of improved domestic consumption and the depreciation
of the euro against the dollar which reduced the competitiveness
of imported commodities.
Currency
The second quarter and first half results were
positively impacted by the depreciation of the euro vs. the US
dollar (down by 19.4% and 18.5%, in the two reporting periods,
respectively).

Business developments
At the beginning of July, the giant Perla gas field
extracted its first gas in offshore Venezuela. Perla is seen as
one of the most important start-ups in Enis portfolio for
2015. The field is operated by a joint venture with Repsol and
was developed in just 5 years, an industry-leading
time-to-market. Pre-pack modules were utilized in the
construction of the onshore gas treatment trains, minimizing
construction works.
Perla is estimated to contain up to 17 Tcf of gas in place, or
3.1 billion boe. Development of the field has been planned in
three phases to optimize time-to-market and spending. Phase 1
(Early Production) is targeting a production plateau of about 450
mmcf/d (or about 40 kboe/d net to Eni), up from an initial target
of 300 mmcf/d. Phase 2 will target a plateau of about 800 mmcf/d
from 2017 (or about 73 kboe/d net to Eni). Phase 3 will target a
plateau of about 1,200 mmcf/d from 2020 (or about 110 kboe/d net
to Eni). The development of Perla leverages a Gas Sales Agreement
with PDVSA for all three phases, up until 2036. The gas will be
mainly used by PDVSA for the domestic market.
An agreement was finalized with KazMunayGas to acquire 50% of the mineral rights in the Isatay block in the Kazakh area of the Caspian Sea. The Isatay block is estimated to have significant potential oil resources and will be operated by a joint operating company established by Eni and KMG on a 50/50 basis. The joint operating company will benefit from Enis proprietary technology. The transfer is expected to be completed within a few months and is subject to approval from the Republic of Kazakhstan.
As part of the development plans of Jangkrik, the offshore gas field discovery in Indonesia (Eni 55%, operator), two purchase and sale agreements were finalized with PT Pertamina targeting LNG volumes of 1.4 mmtonnes/y expected from the field by 2017. These agreements represent an important milestone for the Jangkrik Field Development Project, which is one of the first deep-water gas projects in Indonesia to be developed under a fast track scheme.
In Ghana, the Offshore Cape Three Points (OCTP) integrated oil and gas project (Eni 47.22%, operator) was sanctioned, after obtaining approval from the relevant Countrys Authorities. First oil is expected in 2017, first gas in 2018 and production is expected to peak at 80,000 boe/d by 2019.
Eni signed an agreement with the Egyptian Authorities, which
comprises a plan to invest up to $5 billion in the development of
the Countrys oil and gas reserves over the next few years.
The agreement also includes a revision of certain Enis
ongoing oil contracts. The economic effect of these revisions,
effective from January 1, 2015, were accounted in the 2015 first
half financial statements. The agreement also included the
identification of new measures to reduce overdue amounts of trade
receivables relating to hydrocarbons supplies to Egyptian
state-owned companies.
In addition, Eni was awarded three Concession Agreements for the
operatorship of the Southwest Melehia lease in the western
Egyptian desert, in Karawan and North Leil blocks, offshore the
Mediterranean Sea.

Near-field discoveries were made in the quarter: (i) in Egypt,
oil and gas discovery were made onshore in the Melehia license
with the Melehia West deep well in the Western desert and a gas
discovery in the Nooros exploration prospect located in the Abu
Madi West license, offshore the Nile Delta; (ii) in Libya, two
gas and condensates discoveries were made offshore in the Bouri
North and Bahr Essalam South exploration prospects, located in
the contractual area D, in proximity of the production facilities
of the Bouri and Bahr Essalam fields; and (iii) in Indonesia,
evaluation activities at the Merakes gas discovery in the deep
offshore of the East Sepinngan block (Eni 85%, operator)
increased significantly the gas reserves in place. Eni will bring
forward the appraisal campaign in order to evaluate the possible
fast track development of the discovery optimizing synergies with
the nearby Jangkrik field, also operated by Eni.
In addition, the following start-ups were achieved in the first
half of 2015: (i) Kizomba Satellite Phase 2, located in Block 15,
offshore Angola, with recoverable resources of 190 million boe of
oil and an expected plateau of 70 kboe/d; (ii) Cinguvu, in the
West Hub Development project in Block 15/06 in Angola, was
developed thanks to the application of a modular development
model, which will sustain the production plateau. Cinguvu was the
second field to come on stream after Sangos in 2014. These two
fields are currently producing about 60,000 barrels/d; (iii)
Nené Marine field, located in Marine XII block in Congo, which
started production just eight months after obtaining the
production permit. The early production phase is yielding 7.5
kboe/d and is leveraging synergies with front-end loading and
existing infrastructure of the fields located in the area. The
full-field development will take place in several stages and will
include the installation of production platforms and the drilling
of approximately 30 wells, with a plateau estimated at 120
kboe/d; (iv) Hadrian South field, in the Gulf of Mexico with an
estimated daily production of approximately 300 mmcf/d of gas and
2,250 barrels of liquids (approximately 16 kboe/d net to Eni) and
Lucius field with a daily production of approximately 7 kboe/d
net to Eni; and (v) Other field start-ups were West Franklin
Phase 2 in the United Kingdom and Eldfisk 2 Phase 1 in Norway.

Corporate Social Responsibility
In May 2015, Eni was awarded the "Corporate Social
Responsibility Award" for outstanding contribution to
sustainable development in territories in which Eni operates and
in corporate social responsibility. Eni stood out in investing in
Human Resources, focusing on the environment, community

Eni and the Politecnico of Milan renewed their collaboration agreement for "frontier" research, which will be extended to 2018. Based on economic, environmental and social criteria, this agreement is aimed at supporting frontier innovation in processes and technologies in the oil & gas industry.
Outlook
The Company is forecasting a moderate strengthening in
global economic growth in 2015, driven by the United States.
However, certain risks have the potential to mitigate this
outlook: uncertainty remains around the strength of the Eurozone
recovery, the extent of the slowdown of the Chinese economy and
of other emerging economies, as well as the extent of stability
in financial markets. Oil prices are forecast to be significantly
lower than the last year, due to oversupplied global markets. In
the Exploration & Production segment, management will carry
out efficiency initiatives in operating costs and by optimizing
investments, while retaining a strong focus on project execution
and time-to-market in order to cope with the negative impact of a
lower oil price environment. Looking at the Companys
business segments exposed to the European economic outlook,
Enis management anticipates challenging trading conditions
reflecting structural headwinds due to weak commodity demand,
oversupply/overcapacity and competitive pressure. The fall in oil
prices may only lessen the negative impact of such trends. A
recovery in profitability in these sectors will leverage on the
continued renegotiation of gas supply contracts,
restructuring/reconversion of the production capacity tied to the
oil cycle, cost efficiencies and margin optimization.
Management expects the following production and sales trends
for Eni's businesses:
- Hydrocarbon production: production is expected to
achieve strong growth, up over 7% driven by continuing new fields
start-ups and ramp-ups in 2014 mainly at our profit centers in
Venezuela, Norway, the United States, Angola and Congo and
projections of higher volumes in Libya;
- Gas sales: excluding the impact of the divestment of
Enis assets in Germany and the unusual weather conditions
in 2014, natural gas sales are expected to remain stable compared
to 2014. Management intends to leverage on marketing innovation
in the wholesale and retail markets in order to mitigate
competitive pressures;
- Refining throughputs on Enis account: excluding
the impact of the divestment of the Company share of
capacity in Eastern Europe, volumes are expected to
increase driven by a favorable trading environment and better
plant performance on the back of yield ramp-up at the EST
conversion unit at the Sannazzaro refinery and lower facilities
downtime. Production of bio-fuels are projected to increase at
the restructured Venice plant; and
- Retail sales of refined products in Italy and the Rest of
Europe: retail sales in Italy are expected to slightly
decline compared to 2014 due to weak demand trends and strong
competitive pressure. However, the proprietary network is
expected to perform well. Outside Italy, retail sales are
expected to be stable excluding the impact of the ongoing
divestment of the Companys retail networks in Eastern
Europe.
In 2015, in the context of lower oil prices, Enis management plans to implement capital project optimization and rescheduling which will reduce expenditure compared to the 2014 levels, excluding the impact of the US dollar exchange rate. These initiatives are estimated to have a limited impact on our production growth outlook in the near to medium term. Management expects that based on projected cash flows from operations and portfolio transactions, leverage at year end will remain within the 0.30 threshold.

Companys Board of Directors yesterday. The interim report
has been transmitted to the Companys external auditor as
provided by applicable regulations. Publication of the interim
report is scheduled within the terms of law, alongside the
Companys external auditor report upon completion of
relevant audits.
Results and cash flow are presented for the first quarter and the
second quarter of 2015 and for the second quarter 2014.
Information on liquidity and capital resources relates to end of
the periods as of June 30, 2015, March 31, 2015, and December 31,
2014. Statements presented in this press release are comparable
with those presented in the statutory financial statements of the
Companys consolidated annual report on Form 20-F and
interim report.
Quarterly 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

New segmental
reporting of Eni Enis segmental reporting is established on the basis of the Groups operating segments that are evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker (the CEO) in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing performance. Effective January 1, 2015, Enis segment information was modified to align Enis reportable segments to certain changes in the organization and in profit accountability defined by Enis top management. The main changes adopted compared to the previous setup of the segment information related to: |
- | results of the oil and products trading activities and related risk management activities were transferred to the Gas & Power segment, consistently with the new organizational setup. In previous reporting periods, results of those activities were reported within the Refining & Marketing segment as part of a reporting structure which highlighted results for each stream of commodities. In 2014, this activity reported net sales from operations of approximately euro 50 billion and an operating loss of euro 122 million; | ||
- | R&M and Chemicals operating segments are now combined into a single reportable segment because a single manager is accountable for both the two segments, they show similar long-term economic performance, have comparable products and production processes; and | ||
- | the previous reporting segments "Corporate and financial companies" and "Other activities" have been combined being residual components of the Group, in order to reduce the number of reportable segments in line with the segmental reporting of the comparable oil&gas players. |
The segmental financial information reported to
the CEO comprises segment revenues, operating profit, as well as
segmental assets and liabilities, which are reviewed only on
occasion of the statutory reports (the annual and the interim
reports). Furthermore, management also assesses the adjusted
operating and net profit by business segment. Adjusted results
represent non-GAAP measures and are disclosed elsewhere in this
press release.
As of June 30, 2015, Enis reportable segments have been
regrouped as follows:
- E&P: is engaged in exploring for and
recovering crude oil and natural gas, including participation to
projects for the liquefaction of natural gas;
- G&P: is engaged in supply and marketing of natural
gas at wholesale and retail markets, supply and marketing of LNG
and supply, production and marketing of power at retail and
wholesale markets. G&P is engaged in supply and marketing of
crude oil and oil products targeting the operational requirements
of Enis refining business and in commodity trading
(including crude oil, natural gas, oil products, power, emission
allowances, etc.) targeting to both hedge and stabilize the Group
industrial and commercial margins according to an integrated view
and to optimize margins;
- R&M and Chemicals: is engaged in
manufacturing, supply and distribution and marketing activities
for oil products and chemicals. In previous reporting periods,
these two operating segments were reported separately;
- Engineering & Construction: Eni through its
subsidiary Saipem which is listed on the Italian Stock Exchange
(Enis share being 43%) is engaged in the design,
procurement and construction of industrial complexes, plants and
infrastructures for the oil&gas industries and in supplying
drilling and other oilfield services; and
- Corporate and other activities: represents the
key support functions, comprising holdings and treasury,
headquarters, central functions like IT, HR, real estate,
self-insurance activities, as well as the Group environmental
clean-up and remediation activities performed by the subsidiary
Syndial.

The comparative reporting periods of this press release have been restated consistently with the new segmental reporting adopted by the Group effective January 1, 2015.
In the table below the key performance
indicators of segmental reporting are furnished with reference to
the full year 2014 and to the comparative quarterly and
semi-annual reporting periods furnished in this press release,
which were restated in accordance with the new e segmental
reporting adopted by Eni.

Group results
Reported
In the second quarter of 2015, Eni reported operating profit
of euro 394 million and net loss of euro 113 million,
compared to an operating profit of euro 2,255 million and net
profit of euro 658 million in the second quarter of 2014.
The operating performance (down by 82.5%) was negatively impacted
by sharply lower Brent prices (down by 44%) reflected in lower
revenues from Exploration & Production and lower results
incurred by Saipem which were due to a weak oil price environment
for the whole sector. These negatives were partly offset by
higher production, the depreciation of the euro against the
dollar and progress made in turning around the refining and
chemical businesses, which also benefited from better margins
returning to profitability.
Finally, net loss of euro 113 million compared to a net profit of
euro 658 million in the second quarter of 2014, was affected by
the recognition of a loss on the fair-valued interests in Galp
and Snam, which underlay two convertible bonds (down by euro 53
million compared to a gain of euro 99 million in the year-ago
quarter). The tax rate increase was due to non-taxable losses of
Saipem.
Adjusted
In the second quarter of 2015, adjusted operating profit
excluding Saipem losses (down euro 740 million in the quarter)
amounted to euro 1,502 million (euro 2,909 million in the first
half of 2015), down by 41.4% from the second quarter of 2014
(down by 50.9% in the first half of 2015). Adjusted net profit
attributable to Enis shareholders excluding Saipem
amounted to euro 448 million, decreasing by euro 383 million from
the second quarter of 2014, down by 46.1% (euro 1,048 million in
the first half of 2015, down by euro 933 million, or 47.1%, from
the first half of 2014).
Group adjusted operating profit was euro 762 million, declining
by 72.1%. Adjusted net profit of euro 139 million decreased by
euro 744 million, or 84.3%. Adjusted net profit was calculated by
excluding an inventory holding gain of euro 46 million and
special charges of euro 298 million, net of tax. Furthermore,
adjusted operating profit comprises exchange rate differences and
exchange rate derivatives, which are entered into to manage
exposure to exchange rate risk in commodity pricing formulas and
trade receivables or payables denominated in a currency other
than the functional currency (a charge of euro 99 million).
In the first half of 2015, Group adjusted operating profit was euro 2,329 million, declining by 62.6%. Adjusted net profit of euro 787 million reflected a decrease of euro 1,287 million, or 62.1%, net of the inventory holding loss (euro 41 million) and special charges of euro 155 million, resulting in a positive adjustment of euro 196 million.
Special items of the operating profit (net charges of euro 434 million and euro 325 million, in the second quarter and the first half of 2015, respectively) comprised: (i) gains on divestment of non-strategic oil & gas assets (euro 344 million in the first half of 2015), mainly in Nigeria; (ii) the effects of the fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives lacking the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges under IFRS (charges of euro 51 million and euro 157 million in the second quarter and the first half of 2015, respectively); (iii) impairment of assets (euro 323 million and euro 351 million in the two reporting periods) mainly relating to vessels and logistical hubs in the Engineering & Construction segment (euro 211 million) due to expected lower utilization rates, an oil&gas property in the United Kingdom (euro 49 million) and investments made for compliance and stay-in-business purposes at cash generating units that were completely written-off in previous reporting periods in the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals segment; and (iv) environmental provisions (euro 124 million and euro 144 million in the quarter and the first half, respectively) and provisions for redundancy incentives (euro 10 million and euro 16 million, respectively).
Non-operating special items excluded from the adjusted results mainly comprised of the negative fair-value evaluation of certain exchange rate derivatives to hedge Saipems future exposure on acquired contracts for the parts yet to be executed (euro 83 million). Special items on income taxes related to the tax effects of special gains/charges in operating profit and a reversal of deferred taxation due to changes in the United Kingdom tax law.

Results by business segment
The trend in the Groups adjusted net profit for the
second quarter and the first half of 2015, reflected lower
adjusted operating results recorded by the Exploration &
Production and Engineering & Construction segments, offset by
improvements in the Refining & Marketing and Chemicals
segment reflecting a recovery in margins of refined products and
chemical commodities, as well as efficiency and optimization
initiatives.
Exploration & Production
In the second quarter of 2015, the Exploration &
Production segment reported lower adjusted operating profit, down
by 48.6% to euro 1,533 million (down by 61.3% in the first half).
This result reflected sharply lower oil and gas realizations in
dollar terms (down by 42% and 44% on average, in the quarter and
the first half of 2015, respectively) driven by lower prices for
the marker Brent crude oil (down by 44%) and a weak trading
environment for gas in Europe and in the United States. These
negatives were partly offset by positive exchange rate effects,
higher production sold and lower exploration costs.
Adjusted net profit of euro 571 million declined by 50.4% (euro
689 million in the first half of 2015, down by 72%). Net profit
was negatively affected by an increased adjusted tax rate of 2
percentage points (up by approximately 11 percentage points in
the first half of 2015) due to a larger share of taxable profit
reported in countries with higher rates of taxes.
Gas & Power
In the second quarter of 2015, the Gas & Power segment
reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 31 million, which
was up by euro 17 million from the same period of the previous
year. The increase was due to contracts renegotiations of the
period, partly offset by lower one-off effects related to past
renegotiations, against the backdrop of a weak trading
environment both for gas and power. Adjusted net profit for the
quarter amounted to euro 4 million, an increase of euro 2 million
from the second quarter of 2014. In the first half of 2015,
adjusted operating profit of euro 325 million was an increase of
euro 69 million from the first half of 2014. This was driven by
better competitiveness of the long-term gas supply portfolio on
the back of the renegotiation process, as well as the improved
performance reported by high-value segments, namely the retail
gas segment, due to more typical winter weather conditions
compared to the first half of 2014. These positives were partly
offset by lower one-offs as the renegotiations made in 2014 also
comprised the purchase costs of volumes supplied in previous
reporting periods. Overall, the Gas & Power segment reported
an adjusted net profit of euro 222 million, an increase of euro
59 million from the same period of the previous year.
Refining & Marketing and Chemicals
In the second quarter of 2015, the Refining & Marketing
and Chemicals segment reported an adjusted operating profit of
euro 105 million, significantly better than the adjusted
operating loss of euro 256 million incurred in the second quarter
of 2014, up by euro 361 million (euro 226 million the adjusted
operating profit for the first half of 2015, an increase of euro
795 million). This trend was due to gains in efficiency and
optimization, which together with the ongoing margin recovery
supported the return to profitability.
Adjusted net profit of euro 79 million in the second quarter of
2015 reflected an increase of euro 283 million from the second
quarter of 2014 when this segment reported an adjusted net loss
of euro 204 million (euro 175 million in the first half of 2015,
an increase of euro 618 million from the adjusted net loss of
euro 443 million reported in the first half of 2014).
Engineering & Construction
In the second quarter of 2015, the Engineering &
Construction segment reported an adjusted operating loss of euro
740 million (down euro 580 million in the first half of 2015),
decreasing by euro 905 million and euro 873 million from the
second quarter and the first half of 2014, respectively. This was
driven by write-downs of pending revenues and trade receivables
which were due to a weak oil price environment.
Adjusted net loss was euro 717 million in the second quarter
(down euro 606 million in the first half of 2015) compared to an
adjusted net profit of euro 120 million (a net profit of euro 215
million in the first half of 2014).

The Summarized Group Balance Sheet was affected by a sharp movement in the EUR/USD exchange rate which determined an increase in net capital employed, net borrowings and total equity of euro 3,766 million, euro 259 million and euro 3,507 million, respectively. This was due to translation into euro of the financial statements of US-denominated subsidiaries reflecting a 7.83% appreciation of the US dollar against the euro (1 EUR = 1.119 USD at June 30, 2015 compared to 1.214 at December 31, 2014).
Fixed assets (euro 87,701 million) increased by euro 5,493 million from December 31, 2014. This trend was attributable to favorable currency movements, capital expenditure (euro 6,237 million) partly offset by depreciation, depletion, amortization and impairment charges of euro 5,851 million.
Net working capital (negative euro 6,154 million) decreased by euro 862 million. This reflected: (i) higher provisions (up by euro 489 million) due to currency movements and higher tax payables and provisions for net deferred tax liabilities (up by euro 449 million) due to taxes accrued in the period; and (ii) a lower balance of trade receivables and trade payables (up by euro 654 million) mainly in the Gas & Power segment. These decreases were offset by increased other current assets and liabilities (up by euro 899 million) following the increase of net receivables vs. joint venture partners in the Exploration & Production segment.
Net assets held for sale including related liabilities (euro 106 million) mainly included the fair value of the networks for marketing fuels in the Slovakia and Czech Republic.
Shareholders equity including non-controlling interest was euro 63,872 million, representing an increase of euro 1,663 million from December 31, 2014. This was due to comprehensive income for the period (euro 3,672 million) related to net profit (euro 57 million), positive foreign currency translation differences (euro 3,507 million) and a positive change in the cash flow hedge reserve (euro 156 million). These positives were offset by dividend distribution and other changes of euro 2,009 million (euro 2,017 million being the 2014 balance dividend paid to Enis shareholders and dividends to other subsidiaries).
____________
(6) The summarized Group balance sheet aggregates the amount of assets and liabilities derived from the statutory balance sheet in accordance with functional criteria which consider the enterprise conventionally divided into the three fundamental areas focusing on resource investments, operations and financing. Management believes that this summarized Group balance sheet is useful information in assisting investors to assess Enis capital structure and to analyze its sources of funds and investments in fixed assets and working capital. Management uses the summarized Group balance sheet to calculate key ratios such as the proportion of net borrowings to shareholders equity (leverage) intended to evaluate whether Enis financing structure is sound and well-balanced.

In the first half of 2015, net cash provided by operating activities amounted to euro 5,678 million. Proceeds from disposals were euro 644 million and mainly related to the divestment of non-strategic assets in the Exploration & Production business. These inflows funded part of the capital expenditure for the period (euro 6,237 million) and the payment of the 2014 balance dividend (euro 2,017 million) to Enis shareholders. The Groups net debt increased by euro 2,792 million from December 31, 2014, reflecting currency translation differences amounting to euro 259 million. Net cash provided by operating activities was positively affected by higher receivables due beyond the end of the reporting period, being transferred to financing institutions, in comparison to the amount transferred at the end of the previous reporting period (up by euro 95 million from December 31, 2014).
____________
(7) Enis summarized Group cash flow statement derives from the statutory statement of cash flows. It enables investors to understand 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. The measure enabling such a link is represented by the free cash flow which 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; and (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. The free cash flow is a non-GAAP measure of financial performance.

Results
In the second quarter of 2015, the Exploration & Production segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 1,533 million, down by euro 1,448 million, or 48.6% from the second quarter of 2014. This result was driven by lower oil and gas realizations in dollar terms (down by 44.7% and 32.9%, respectively), reflecting trends in the marker Brent (down by 43.5%) and lower gas prices in Europe and in the United States, while being only partially offset by a favorable exchange rate environment, higher production volumes sold and lower exploration costs.
Adjusted operating profit was calculated by including a positive adjustment of euro 62 million for the quarter (it was a negative adjustment of euro 281 million for the first half of 2015). The main special charges comprised: (i) impairments of an oil&gas property in the United Kingdom (euro 49 million); (ii) a fair-value loss of certain derivatives embedded in the pricing formulas of long-term gas supply agreements (charge of euro 20 million and euro 31 million in the quarter and in the first half of 2015); (iii) exchange rate differences and derivatives that have been reclassified to adjusted operating profit and relate to exchange rate exposure on trade payables and receivables (euro 3 million and euro 20 million in the quarter and in the first half of the year, respectively); (iv) gains on disposals of non-strategic assets (euro 338 million in the first half of 2015), mainly in Nigeria; and (v) provisions for redundancy incentives (euro 9 million and euro 10 million in the quarter and in the first half of 2015, respectively).

Adjusted net profit for the quarter amounted to euro 571 million. This represented a decrease of euro 580 million, or 50.4%, from the same period of the previous year, due to lower operating performance and a higher tax rate (up by 2 percentage points) which reflected a larger share of taxable profit reported in countries with higher taxation.
In the first half of 2015, the Exploration & Production segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 2,488 million, down by euro 3,943 million, or 61.3% from the corresponding period a year ago, due to the same drivers of the quarter.
Adjusted net profit of the first half of 2015 amounted to euro 689 million, down by euro 1,775 million, or 72% from the first half of the previous year. This was due to lower operating performance and a higher tax rate (up by 10.6 percentage points), which reflected a larger share of taxable profit reported in countries with higher taxation.
Operating review
In the second quarter of 2015, Enis hydrocarbon production was 1.754 million boe/d, 10.7% higher than in the second quarter of 2014 (1.726 million boe/d in the first half; up by 9% from the corresponding period of the previous year). Excluding the price effects reported in Production Sharing Agreements, production increased by 7.1% (up 5.2% in the first half) due to the start-up of new fields and the continuing ramp-up of production at fields started at the end of 2014, mainly in Angola, Congo, the United States, Egypt and the United Kingdom, as well as higher production in Libya. These positive effects were partly offset by declines in mature fields. The share of oil and natural gas produced outside Italy was 90% in the quarter and in the first half of the year (compared to 89% in the corresponding periods a year ago).
Liquids production was 903 kbbl/d, up by 90 kbbl/d, or 11.1% from the second quarter of 2014, with major increases registered in Angola, Congo, Egypt, Libya and the United States.
Natural gas production was 4,676 mmcf/d, up by 442 mmcf/d, or 10% from the same period a year ago. The declines in the mature fields were more than offset by the contribution of new fields and the ramping up of production at fields started at the end of 2014, mainly in the United Kingdom and the United States, as well as higher production in Libya.
In the first half of 2015, liquids production amounted to 882 kbbl/d, up by 65 kbbl/d, or 8% compared to the first half of 2014, mainly due to the start-up of new fields and the ramping up of production at existing fields during the period.
Natural gas production for the first half of 2015 was 4,636 mmcf/d, up by 428 mmcf/d, or 10.1% compared to the same period a year ago.

Results
In the second quarter of 2015, the Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 31 million, up by euro 17 million compared to adjusted operating profit of euro 14 million reported in the corresponding period of 2014. This increase reflected contract renegotiations that were agreed during the period, which were partially offset by lower one-off effects relating to past renegotiations, against the backdrop of a weak trading environment both for gas and power.
Adjusted operating profit for the quarter was calculated by including a negative adjustment of euro 44 million (it was a positive adjustment of euro 33 million for the first half of the year) relating to special charges. These included a charge of euro 94 million in the quarter (euro 25 million in the first half of year) due to exchange rate differences and exchange rate derivatives, which are entered into to manage exposure to exchange rate risk in commodity pricing formulas and trade receivables or payables denominated in a currency other than the functional currency. Special charges eliminated from adjusted results comprised fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives contracts (a charge of euro 6 million in the quarter; euro 14 million in the first half of year), minor asset impairments (euro 17 million) and a charge on pre-paid gas (euro 24 million) in order to align it to its net estimated realizable value at the end of the reporting period.
In the second quarter of 2015, the adjusted net profit amounted to euro 4 million. This represented an increase of euro 2 million from the same period of the previous year, driven by better operating performance.
In the first half of 2015, the Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 325 million, up by euro 69 million from the first half of 2014. This increase reflected the improved
- 19 -
competitiveness of the wholesale business thanks to the
renegotiation of substantial part of long-term gas supply
contracts. There was also an improvement in the performance
reported by the retail gas segment, due to higher volumes sold in
France and more typical winter weather conditions compared to the
corresponding period of 2014.
These positives were partially offset by lower one-off effects
associated with contract renegotiations relating to the purchase
costs of volumes supplied in previous reporting periods.
The Gas & Power segment reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 222 million in the second quarter of 2015, up by euro 59 million compared to the same quarter a year ago, due to better operating performance, partially offset by lower results of equity-accounted entities.
Operating review
In the second quarter of 2015, Enis natural gas sales were 22.39 bcm, up by 3.30 bcm or 17.3% from the same period of the previous year. Sales in Italy increased by 45.5% to 10.58 bcm driven by higher sales to hub (Italian gas exchange and spot markets) and positive performance in the residential segment due to more typical weather conditions. This was partially offset by lower sales in the wholesale and thermoelectric segments. Sales in the European markets decreased by 7.1% to 8.37 bcm due to the divestment of GVS joint venture in Germany, and lower sales in Benelux due to lower sales to wholesalers. These negatives were partly offset by higher spot sales in France and higher volumes marketed in Turkey to Botas. Sales to importers in Italy amounted to 1.11 bcm, up by 73.4% from the corresponding period a year ago, due to a higher availability of Libyan output.
In the first half of 2015, Enis natural gas sales were 48.01 bcm (including Enis own consumption, Enis share of sales made by equity-accounted entities and upstream sales in Europe and in the Gulf of Mexico), up by 2.16 bcm, or 4.7% from the same period of the previous year. Sales in Italy increased to 21.11 bcm due to higher sales to hub (Italian gas exchange and spot markets) and a positive performance in the residential segment due to more typical weather conditions compared to the corresponding period of the previous year. These positive performances were partially offset by lower volumes in the thermoelectric segment due to weaker market conditions, reflecting higher use of hydroelectric and renewable sources and a contraction in demand, reported in the first months of the year. Sales in the European markets amounted to 20.21 bcm, down by 4.4% from the same period of the previous year. This can be attributed to the aforementioned divestment in Germany/Austria and lower spot sales in the United Kingdom. These issues were partially offset by higher spot sales in France and Turkey due to higher sales to Botas.
Electricity sales were 8.35 TWh in the second quarter of 2015, increased by 7.7% (16.82 TWh, up by 5.1% in the first half of the year) due to higher sales to the Italian Power Exchange.

Results
In the second quarter of 2015, the Refining &
Marketing and Chemicals segment reported an adjusted operating
profit of euro 105 million, up by euro 361 million from an
adjusted operating loss of euro 256 million reported in the same
quarter of the previous year.
This positive performance was driven by the improved results of
the Refining & Marketing business, which recorded an adjusted
operating profit of euro 39 million, up by euro 203 million from
an adjusted operating loss of euro 164 million reported in the
second quarter of 2014. The improvement was driven by efficiency
and optimization initiatives, particularly capacity reductions
which lowered the breakeven margin of the refining activity to
$5.3 per barrel. These measures will bring about a return to
profitability in 2015, should the strong margins continue for the
remainder of the year. Marketing activity registered a stable
performance due to efficiency initiatives, which helped to absorb
almost totally the effects of competitive pressure.
The Chemical business reported an adjusted operating profit of euro 66 million, up by euro 158 million from the operating loss of euro 92 million reported in the second quarter of 2014. This result was driven by efficiency initiatives carried out in previous years, higher product margins in ethylene, polyethylene and styrene, but was also due to the temporary shortage of certain products, unscheduled facility shutdowns and lower competitiveness of imported products reflecting the euro devaluation. The effects of the ongoing
- 21 -
turnaround initiatives, efficiency gains, plants optimization and the restarting of production at the Porto Marghera site, following commercial agreements with Shell, also drove the result.
Special charges excluded from adjusted operating profit of the first quarter of 2015 amounted to a net positive of euro 136 million (euro 291 million in the first half of the year). This comprised fair-value evaluation of certain commodity derivatives (charges of euro 27 million in the quarter and euro 117 million in the first half) lacking the formal criteria to be accounted as hedges under IFRS. These include impairment charges to write down capital expenditure of the period which was made at CGUs totally impaired in the previous reporting periods (euro 43 million in the quarter and euro 70 million in the first half of the year), and environmental charges (euro 60 million and euro 80 million in the quarter and in the first half of the year, respectively).
Adjusted net profit for the second quarter of 2015 amounted to euro 79 million, up by euro 283 million from the adjusted net loss of euro 204 million of the second quarter of 2014 due to improved operating performance.
In the first half of 2015, the Refining & Marketing
and Chemicals segment reported an adjusted operating profit of
euro 226 million, up by euro 795 million from an adjusted net
loss of euro 569 million reported in the first half of 2014.
Adjusted net profit amounted to euro 175 million, up by euro 618
million from the same period of 2014.
Operating review
Enis refining throughputs for the second quarter of 2015 were 6.59 mmtonnes (13.50 mmtonnes in the first half of 2015), up by 13.4% from the second quarter of 2014 (up by 15.5% from the first half 2014). Volumes processed in Italy increased by 25.6% and 22.2% in the quarter and in the first half of the year, respectively, reflecting a favorable trading environment. The volumes of green feedstock processed at Venice facility reported an increase from the corresponding period of 2014 (year of the operations start-up). Outside Italy, Enis refining throughputs decreased by 28% in the quarter (down by 10.3% in the six months), due to the disposal in the Czech Republic. In Germany, refining throughputs reported a slight increase.
Retail sales in Italy were 1.50 mmtonnes in the second quarter of 2015 (2.85 mmtonnes in the first half), down by approximately 100 ktonnes, or 6.2% (down by approximately 200 ktonnes, or 6.6% in the first half) due to competitive pressure. In the second quarter of 2015 Enis market share amounted to 24.3%, down by 1.9 percentage points from the corresponding period of the previous year (26.2%).
Wholesale sales in Italy (2.01 mmtonnes and 3.72 mmtonnes in the second quarter and the first half of 2015, respectively) increased by approximately 220 ktonnes, or 12.3% in the quarter; up by 7.2% in the first half of 2015, mainly due to higher sales of gasoil and bunkering driven by higher demand. This was partly offset by lower volumes sold of minor products and lubricants. Average market share in the second quarter of 2015 was 27.1% (26.2% in the second quarter of 2014).
Retail sales in the rest of Europe were 0.79 mmtonnes (1.48 mmtonnes in the first half of 2015), barely unchanged from the same periods of the previous year. Higher sales in Germany, Switzerland and Austria were offset by lower volumes marketed in Eastern Europe, mainly due to the disposal of assets in Romania.
Wholesale sales in the rest of Europe (0.98 mmtonnes and 2.06 mmtonnes in the second quarter and the first half of 2015, respectively) decreased by 16.2% and 5.5% in the two reporting periods, mainly reflecting the aforementioned disposal of assets in Czech Republic.
Petrochemical production (1.33 mmtonnes and 2.76 mmtonnes in the two reporting periods) was slightly lower (down by 1.6% and 2.4% in the quarter and in the first half, respectively).

NON-GAAP measures
Reconciliation of reported operating profit and reported
net profit to results on an adjusted basis
Management evaluates Group and business performance on the
basis of adjusted operating profit and adjusted net profit, which
are arrived at 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. The Italian statutory tax rate is
applied to finance charges and income. Adjusted operating profit
and adjusted net profit are non-GAAP financial measures under
either IFRS, or US GAAP. Management includes them in order to
facilitate a comparison of base business performance across
periods, and to allow financial analysts to evaluate Enis
trading performance on the basis of their forecasting models.
The following is a description of items that are excluded from the calculation of adjusted results.
Inventory holding gain or loss 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.
Special items 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; or (iii) 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. Those items 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 exchange rate market. 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 managements discussion and financial tables. Also, special items allow to allocate to future reporting periods gains and losses on re-measurement at fair value of certain non-hedging commodity derivatives and exchange rate derivatives relating to commercial exposures, lacking the criteria to be designed as hedges, including the ineffective portion of cash flow hedges and certain derivative financial instruments embedded in the pricing formula of long-term gas supply agreements of the Exploration & Production segment.
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). Finance charges or interest income and related taxation effects excluded from the adjusted net profit of the business segments are allocated on the aggregate Corporate and financial companies.
For a reconciliation of adjusted operating profit, adjusted net profit to reported operating profit and reported net profit see tables below.

Leverage and net borrowings
Leverage is a measure used by management to assess the Companys level of indebtedness. It is calculated as a ratio of net borrowings which is calculated by excluding cash and cash equivalents and certain very liquid assets from finance debt 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.
