Highlights
Momentum continues into 2018 as BP
delivers strong 1Q profit
●
Underlying
replacement cost profit* for the first quarter of 2018
was $2.6 billion, compared with $1.5 billion for the same
period in 2017, a rise of 71%.
●
Operating cash
flow excluding Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments* in the quarter was $5.4
billion including a $1.8
billion negative impact from an increase in working capital ($1.7
billion after adjusting for inventory holding gains) driven by
higher oil prices and seasonal inventory
builds.
●
Upstream
reported the
strongest quarter since third quarter 2014 on both a replacement
cost and underlying basis.
●
Reported oil
and gas production was 3.7 million barrels of oil
equivalent a day in the quarter, 6% higher than the first quarter
of 2017. Upstream production, excluding Rosneft, was 9% higher,
supported by continued ramp up of major projects*. Upstream plant
reliability* was 96% for the quarter.
●
First Upstream
major project of 2018, Atoll in Egypt, started
production; to date in 2018, final investment decisions have been
taken on four new projects -
in Oman, India and two in the UK North Sea.
●
Continued
Downstream
earnings growth with
strong refining availability in the US.
●
Gulf of Mexico oil
spill payments in the quarter
were $1.6 billion on a pre-tax basis, including $1.2 billion for
the final payment relating to the 2012 Department of Justice
settlement.
●
BP
continued its share buyback programme in the quarter, buying 18 million
shares for a cost of $120 million.

Bob Dudley - Group chief
executive:
"We have delivered another strong set of results. Our safe and
reliable operations and strong financial delivery have continued
into 2018. Underlying profit was up 23% on the previous quarter and
was our best quarterly result in three years. With rising output
from our new major projects and excellent reliability, Upstream
production was 9% higher than a year earlier.
"Moving through 2018 we're determined to keep delivering our
operational targets and maintaining capital discipline while
growing cash flow and returns.
"Over the longer term, our new lower carbon ambitions, including
clear targets for our own emissions, will help ensure that all of
BP is also focused on advancing the energy
transition."

Results
For the
first quarter, underlying replacement cost (RC) profit was $2,586
million, compared with $1,510 million in 2017, mainly due to higher
profits in Upstream, partially offset by a higher tax charge.
Underlying RC profit is after adjusting RC profit for a net charge
for non-operating items of $247 million and net favourable fair
value accounting effects of $50 million (both on a post-tax
basis).
RC
profit was $2,389 million for the first quarter, compared with
$1,412 million a year ago.
BP's
profit for the first quarter was $2,469 million, compared with
$1,449 million for the same period in 2017.
See
further information on pages 3, 26 and 27.
Non-operating items
Non-operating
items amounted to a charge of $456 million pre-tax and
$247 million post-tax for the quarter. See further information
on page 26.
Effective tax rate
The
effective tax rate (ETR) on RC profit or loss* for the first
quarter was 36%, compared with 29% for the same period in 2017.
Adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting
effects, the underlying ETR* for the first quarter was 37%,
compared with 33% for the same period a year ago. The underlying
ETR for the first quarter was higher than a year ago mainly due to
the absence of favourable foreign exchange impacts. In the current
environment the underlying ETR in 2018 is expected to be above 40%.
ETR on RC profit or loss and underlying ETR are non-GAAP
measures.
Dividend
BP
today announced a quarterly dividend of 10.00 cents per
ordinary share ($0.600 per ADS), which is expected to be paid on
22 June 2018. The corresponding amount in sterling will be
announced on 11 June 2018. See page 23 for further
information.
Share buybacks
BP
repurchased 18 million ordinary shares at a cost of
$120 million, including fees and stamp duty, during the first
quarter of 2018.
|
Operating cash flow*
Excluding
post-tax amounts related to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, operating
cash flow* for the first quarter was $5.4 billion, compared
with $4.4 billion for the same period in 2017. Including
amounts relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, operating cash
flow for the first quarter was $3.6 billion, compared with
$2.1 billion for the same period in 2017.
Capital expenditure*
Organic
capital expenditure* for the first quarter was $3.5 billion,
compared with $3.5 billion for the same period in 2017. We
expect organic capital expenditure to be in the range of $15-16
billion for 2018.
Inorganic
capital expenditure* for the first quarter was $0.4 billion,
compared with $0.5 billion for the same period in
2017.
See page 25 for further information.
Divestment and other proceeds
Divestment
proceeds* were $0.2 billion for the first quarter, compared
with $0.3 billion for the same period in 2017. We expect
divestment and other proceeds to be in the range of $2-3 billion
for 2018.
Gearing*
Net
debt* at 31 March 2018 was $40.0 billion, compared with
$38.6 billion a year ago. Gearing at 31 March 2018 was 28.1%,
compared with 27.4% at the end of 2017 and 28.0% a year ago.
Gearing was higher, following increases in working capital and
higher Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments in the quarter. We
continue to target gearing in the range of 20-30%. Net debt and
gearing are non-GAAP measures. See page 23 for more
information.

Strategic progress
Upstream
Upstream
production, excluding Rosneft, for the quarter was 2,605mboe/d, a
rise of 9.1% on a year earlier, driven by the continued ramp up of
production from major projects*. Upstream plant reliability* was
96%, the best quarterly performance on record. Upstream unit
production costs* were higher due to increased wellwork* activity
in the quarter, but are expected to show continued year-on-year
improvement driven by strong operational performance.
The
Atoll Phase One project, offshore Egypt, began gas production in
the quarter, ahead of schedule and under budget. The project is the
first of six Upstream major projects* expected to begin production
during 2018.
Since
the start of the year, BP has taken final investment decisions on
four new projects: Ghazeer, the second phase of the Khazzan
development in Oman; KG D6 Satellites, the second project in the
integrated KG D6 development offshore India; and the Alligin and
Vorlich fields in the UK North Sea.
BP has
accessed new acreage in both the US and Mexican regions of the Gulf
of Mexico, in the Campos basin offshore Brazil, in Sao Tome &
Principe, in Newfoundland, Canada, in Madagascar and in
Azerbaijan.
Downstream
Strong
performance in fuels marketing; premium fuels volumes were 5%
higher than last year and we continued the rollout of BP's
convenience partnership model across our network. The rapid
development of BP's retail presence in Mexico continued with the
200th retail site now open following market entry a year
ago.
|
In
manufacturing, BP's US refineries processed higher levels of
advantaged crude than a year ago and BP's PTA plant in Zhuhai,
China set a new production record.
Advancing the energy transition
BP published a new report detailing BP's lower carbon activities
and commitments and setting out targets including maintaining BP's
net operational greenhouse gas emissions at or below 2015 levels
out to 2025.
Financial framework
Operating cash flow excluding Gulf of Mexico oil spill
payments*, was $5.4 billion, including a working capital
build driven by the higher oil price and seasonal inventory builds
across businesses.
Organic capital expenditure*
was $3.5 billion in the first quarter and is expected to total
$15-16 billion in 2018.
Divestments and other proceeds totalled $0.2 billion in the
quarter. Total proceeds of $2-3 billion are expected in
2018.
Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments of $1.6 billion were made
in the quarter, including the final charge under the 2012
Department of Justice criminal settlement. Payments are expected to
be just over $3 billion in 2018, weighted to the first half of the
year.
Gearing* at the end of the quarter was 28.1%, within BP's
target band of 20-30%. With anticipated weighting of both Gulf of
Mexico oil spill payments and divestment proceeds through the year,
gearing is expected to trend down through the rest of the
year.

(a)
|
The
operational and financial information of the Rosneft segment for
the first quarter is based on preliminary operational and financial
results of Rosneft for the three months ended 31 March 2018. Actual
results may differ from these amounts.
|
(b)
|
The
Rosneft segment result includes equity-accounted earnings arising
from BP's 19.75% shareholding in Rosneft as adjusted for the
accounting required under IFRS relating to BP's purchase of its
interest in Rosneft and the amortization of the deferred gain
relating to the divestment of BP's interest in TNK-BP. These
adjustments increase the reported profit before interest and tax,
as shown in the table above, compared with the equivalent amount in
Russian roubles in Rosneft's IFRS financial statements. BP's share
of Rosneft's profit before interest and tax for each year-to-date
period is calculated by translating the amounts reported in Russian
roubles into US dollars using the average exchange rate for the
year to date. BP's share of Rosneft's earnings after finance costs,
taxation and non-controlling interests, as adjusted, is included in
the BP group income statement within profit before interest and
taxation.

(a)
|
Derivative financial instruments entered into for the purpose of
managing interest rate and foreign currency exchange risk
associated with net debt with a fair value liability position of
$457 million (fourth quarter 2017 liability of
$634 million and first quarter 2017 liability of
$1,746 million) are not included in the calculation of net
debt shown above as hedge accounting is not applied for these
instruments.
|
(b)
|
See Note 1 for further information.
|
(c)
|
An amendment has been made to reduce the amount presented for net
financing cash outflow for the fourth quarter of 2017 by
$242 million to eliminate cash flows related to non-hedge
accounted derivatives. Exchange adjustments have been amended by
the same amount with no overall change in net debt.

Fourth quarter 2017 includes an impairment charge relating to the
US Lower 48 business, partially offset by gains associated with
asset divestments. First quarter 2017 includes an impairment charge
arising following the announcement of the agreement to sell the
Forties Pipeline System business to INEOS.
|
(b)
|
Fourth
quarter 2017 includes BP's share of an impairment reversal
recognized by the Angola LNG equity-accounted entity, partially
offset by other items.
|
(c)
|
Fourth
quarter 2017 gain primarily reflects the disposal of our
shareholding in the SECCO joint venture.
|
(d)
|
See
Note 2 for further details regarding costs relating to the Gulf of
Mexico oil spill.
|
(e)
|
Fourth
quarter 2017 includes the tax effect of the increase in the
provision in the fourth quarter for business economic loss and
other claims associated with the Deepwater Horizon Court Supervised
Settlement Program (DHCSSP) at the new US tax rate.
|
(f)
|
Fourth
quarter 2017 includes the impact of US tax reform, which reduced
the US federal corporate income tax rate from 35% to 21% effective
from 1 January 2018. The impact disclosed has been calculated as
the change in deferred tax balances at 31 December 2017, excluding
the increase in the provision in the fourth quarter for business
economic loss and other claims associated with the DHCSSP, which
arises following the reduction in the tax rate. First quarter 2018
reflects a further impact following a clarification of the tax
reform. The impact of the US tax reform has been treated as a
non-operating item because it is not considered to be part of
underlying business operations, has a material impact upon the
reported result and is substantially impacted by Gulf of Mexico oil
spill charges, which are also treated as non-operating items.
Separate disclosure is considered meaningful and relevant to
investors.
