Group results fourth quarter and full year 2019

Highlights Operational momentum, growing cash flow, strategic progress: dividend increased

Cash flow strong, increased disposal plans

– Profit was $19 million for the fourth quarter and $4.0 billion for the full year 2019, compared with $0.8 billion and $9.4 billion for the same periods in 2018. Underlying replacement cost profit for the fourth quarter and full year 2019 was $2.6 billion and $10.0 billion respectively, compared to $3.5 billion and $12.7 billion for the same periods a year earlier, largely reflecting the impact of the weaker environment.

– Non-operating items in the quarter included a $1.9 billion after-tax impairment charge, mainly for the disposal of US gas assets, and a $0.9 billion charge arising from the reclassification of past foreign exchange losses on the formation of BP’s new biofuels joint venture.

– Full-year operating cash flow was $25.8 billion including the impact of Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments_(a).  

– Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments for the year totalled $2.4 billion on a post-tax basis, and are expected to be less than $1 billion in 2020.

– Total capital expenditure for the full year was $19.4 billion. Maintaining capital discipline, full-year organic capital expenditure of $15.2 billion was at the bottom of the guided range. Divestments and other disposals announced since the start of 2019 now total $9.4 billion, keeping BP ahead of schedule to meet its target of $10 billion proceeds by end-2020. BP expects to announce a further $5 billion of agreed disposals by mid-2021.

– In January 2020 BP completed its announced share buyback programme.

– Finance debt and finance debt ratio at 31 December 2019 was $67.7 billion and 40.2% respectively. Net debt reduced by $1.1 billion in the quarter with gearing at 31.1%, down from 31.7% at the end of the previous quarter.

– A dividend of 10.5 cents per share was announced for the quarter, an increase of 2.4% on a year earlier.

Continued reliable operations

– Downstream delivered full-year refining availability of 95% and record refining throughput for the second consecutive year. Upstream operated plant reliability was 94.4% for the year.

– Reported oil and gas production averaged 3.8 million barrels of oil equivalent a day in 2019, 2.7% higher than in 2018. Underlying full year Upstream production, which excludes both Rosneft and portfolio changes, was broadly flat with 2018.

Low-carbon expansions, new projects, retail growth

– BP expanded its low-carbon businesses in 2019, increasing ownership in its solar joint venture Lightsource BP to 50%, and completed formation of its new Brazilian biofuels and biopower joint venture, BP Bunge Bioenergia.

– Five Upstream major projects began production in 2019, and final investment decisions were taken for a further five.

– BP continued its expansion into fast-growing fuels markets during the year and agreed a major fuels joint venture with Reliance Industries Limited in India.

_(a) Operating cash flow excluding Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments is a measure used by management and BP believes it is useful as it allows for meaningful comparisons between reporting periods. It is not however disclosed in this SEC filing because SEC regulations do not permit the inclusion of this non-GAAP metric.

Results

Profit attributable to BP shareholders for the fourth quarter and full year was $19 million and $4,026 million respectively, compared with $766 million and $9,383 million for the same periods in 2018.

For the full year, replacement cost (RC) profit* was $3,515 million, compared with $9,986 million in 2018. Underlying RC profit* was $9,990 million, compared with $12,723 million in 2018. Underlying RC profit is after adjusting RC profit for a net charge for non-operating items* of $7,186 million and net favourable fair value accounting effects* of $711 million (both on a post-tax basis).

For the fourth quarter, RC loss was $4 million, compared with a profit of$2,717 million in 2018. Underlying RC profit was $2,567 million, compared with $3,477 million in 2018. Underlying RC profit is after adjusting RC loss for a net charge for non-operating items of $3,142 million primarily divestment-related impairment charges (see Note 3 and page 29) and reclassification of past foreign exchange losses on the formation of the BP Bunge Bioenergia joint venture, as well as net favourable fair value accounting effects of $571 million (both on a post-tax basis).

See further information on pages 5, 29 and 30.

Depreciation, depletion and amortization

The charge for depreciation, depletion and amortization was $4.4 billion in the quarter and $17.8 billion in the full year. In the same periods in 2018 it was $4.0 billion and $15.5 billion respectively (prior to the implementation of IFRS 16). In 2020, we expect the full-year charge to be slightly lower than the 2019 level reflecting impacts of divestments.

Effective tax rate

The effective tax rate (ETR) on the profit for the fourth quarter and full year was 93% and 49% respectively, compared with 68% and 43% for the same periods in 2018.

The ETR on RC profit or loss* for the fourth quarter and full year was 102% and 51% respectively, compared with 45% and 42% for the same periods in 2018. Adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting effects, the underlying ETR* for the fourth quarter and full year was 27% and 36% respectively, compared with 38% and 38% for the same periods a year ago. The lower underlying ETR for the fourth quarter and full year reflects the reassessment of the recognition of deferred tax assets. In the current environment the underlying ETR in 2020 is expected to be lower than 40%. ETR on RC profit or loss and underlying ETR are non-GAAP measures.

Dividend

BP today announced a quarterly dividend of 10.5 cents per ordinary share ($0.63 per ADS), which is expected to be paid on 27 March 2020. The corresponding amount in sterling will be

announced on 16 March 2020. See page 25 for more information.

Share buybacks

BP repurchased 184 million ordinary shares at a cost of $1,171 million in the fourth quarter, totalling 235 million ordinary shares at a cost of $1,511 million (including fees and stamp duty) for the full year. In January 2020, the share buyback programme had fully offset the impact of scrip dilution since the third quarter 2017.

Operating cash flow*

Operating cash flow was $7.6 billion in the fourth quarter and $25.8 billion in the full year including the impact of Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments of $(42) million and $2.4 billion respectively. For the same periods in 2018 we reported $6.8 billion and $22.9 billion (prior to the implementation of IFRS 16).

Capital expenditure*

Total capital expenditure for the fourth quarter and full year was $4.1 billion and $19.4 billion respectively. We reported $12.9 billion and $25.1 billion for the same periods in 2018 (prior to the implementation of IFRS 16).

Organic capital expenditure* for the fourth quarter and full year was $4.0 billion and $15.2 billion respectively. We reported $4.4 billion and $15.1 billion for the same periods in 2018 (prior to the implementation of IFRS 16).

Inorganic capital expenditure* for the fourth quarter and full year was $0.2 billion and $4.2 billion respectively, including $3.5 billion for the full year relating to the BHP acquisition, compared with $8.5 billion and $9.9 billion for the same periods in 2018.

Organic capital expenditure and inorganic capital expenditure are non-GAAP measures. See page 28 for further information.

Divestment and other proceeds

Divestment proceeds* were $0.8 billion for the fourth quarter and $2.2 billion for the full year, in addition $0.6 billion was received in the fourth quarter in relation to the sale of a 49% interest in BP’s retail property portfolio in Australia. Divestment proceeds for the same periods in 2018 were $2.4 billion and $2.9 billion respectively.

Debt

Finance debt at 31 December 2019 was $67.7 billion, compared with $65.1 billion a year ago. Finance debt ratio* at 31 December 2019 was 40.2%, compared with 39.1% a year ago. Net debt* at 31 December 2019 was $45.4 billion, compared with $43.5 billion a year ago. Gearing* at 31 December 2019 was 31.1%, compared with 30.0% a year ago.

Net debt and gearing are non-GAAP measures. See page 25 for more information.

Reserves replacement ratio*

The organic reserves replacement ratio on a combined basis of subsidiaries and equity-accounted entities was 67% for the year. Including acquisitions and divestments, the total reserves

replacement ratio was 57%.

Strategic progress

Upstream

Upstream production for the fourth quarter, which excludes Rosneft, was 2,698mboe/d, 2.7% higher than a year earlier. Underlying production*, adjusted for portfolio changes and PSA* impact, increased by 2.1%, mainly due to major project growth.

In 2019 BP announced seven discoveries. In December, it confirmed the success of a three-well drilling campaign offshore Mauritania and Senegal, offering the potential for possible future developments.

The Alligin project, a tie-back to the Quad 204 development west of Shetland, UK, began production ahead of schedule in December and was the fifth Upstream major project start-up of 2019. The Raven project in Egypt is now expected to come onstream around the end of 2020. Final investment decisions for five further projects, in the US Gulf of Mexico, UK North Sea, Azerbaijan and India, were taken in 2019.

In November BP agreed to sell its interests in the onshore San Juan and Arkoma fields in the US. In early January 2020, BP announced it had agreed terms to sell its interests in the Andrew area and in the Shearwater field, both in the central UK North Sea.

Downstream

BP continued to make strategic progress in fuels marketing, with its convenience partnership model now in around 1,600 sites across the network.

BP also made progress towards its growth ambition in new markets, most notably in Mexico, where there are now over 520 BP-branded sites and volumes more than doubled in 2019.

In December, BP signed key agreements with Reliance Industries Limited to form a new fuels marketing joint venture, which will build on Reliance’s existing network of retail sites in India and include access to the country’s aviation fuels market.

A consortium of leading companies across the PET plastics value chain, including BP, was formed. It aims to help accelerate the commercialisation of BP’s enhanced recycling technology, BP Infinia, which is capable of processing currently-unrecyclable plastic waste.

Advancing the energy transition

In December BP increased its interest in its solar joint venture Lightsource BP, creating a simplified equal ownership structure with the company’s management. The cash injection will support Lightsource BP's planned continuing rapid growth.

The formation of the BP Bunge Bioenergia joint venture has completed. BP’s 50% share in the company represents a 50% increase in BP's Brazilian biofuels and biopower business.

BP continued to progress its advanced mobility agenda in 2019, forming an electric vehicle charging joint venture in China with DiDi and beginning the roll out of 150kW ultra-fast electric chargers on BP forecourts across the UK.

Financial framework

Following the introduction of IFRS 16 on 1 January 2019, the positive impacts on Operating cash flow* and Organic capital expenditure* are fully offset in the cash flow statement by a new line, Lease liability payments. Lease payments are now included in the definition of free cash flow* as a use of cash, which means the net impact on this measure is zero.

Operating cash flow was $25.8 billion for the full year of 2019, including Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments of $2.4 billion. For the full year of 2018, we reported $22.9 billion (prior to the implementation of IFRS 16).

Organic capital expenditure for the full year of 2019 was $15.2 billion. BP expects 2020 organic capital expenditure to remain towards the lower end of our $15-17 billion range.

Lease liability payments of principal for the full year of 2019 were $2.4 billion.

Divestment and other transactions announced have now reached $9.4 billion since the start of 2019. BP expects this total to be around $15 billion by mid-2021.

Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments on a post-tax basis totalled $2.4 billion in the full year. Payments for 2020 are expected to be less than $1 billion on a post-tax basis.

Gearing* at the end of the year was 31.1%. See page 25 for more information. We expect gearing to move towards the middle of the 20-30% range through 2020, assuming recent average oil prices.

Safety

Both tier 1 and tier 2 process safety events* were higher in 2019 compared with 2018. The increase in this group metric mainly reflects performance in assets acquired over the past year; excluding these the number of events fell slightly. Safety remains our number one priority and we continue to focus on working to reduce all process safety events.

Financial results

The replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $614 million and $4,917 million respectively, compared with $4,168 million and $14,328 million for the same periods in 2018. The fourth quarter and full year included a net non-operating charge of $2,723 million and $6,947 million respectively, which principally relate to impairments arising from disposal transactions, compared with a net gain of $136 million and a net charge$183 million for the same periods in 2018. Fair value accounting effects in the fourth quarter and full year had a favourable impact of $659 million and $706 million respectively, compared with a favourable impact of $146 million and an adverse impact of $39 million in the same periods of 2018.

After adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting effects, the underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $2,678 million and $11,158 million respectively, compared with $3,886 million and $14,550 million for the same periods in 2018. The result for the fourth quarter mainly reflected lower liquids and gas realizations partly offset by higher production. The result for the full year mainly reflected lower liquids and gas realizations and higher depreciation, depletion and amortization partly offset by strong gas marketing and trading results and higher production.

Production

Production for the quarter was 2,698mboe/d, 2.7% higher than the fourth quarter of 2018. Underlying production* for the quarter increased by 2.1%, mainly due to major project growth.

For the full year, production was 2,637mboe/d, 3.8% higher than 2018. Underlying production for the full year was broadly flat versus full year 2018.

Key events

On 29 October, BP announced the New Gas Consortium (NGC), a joint venture with Chevron, Eni, Total and Angolan state-owned Sonangol. This is the first upstream natural gas partnership in Angola, initially comprised of the Quiluma & Maboqueiro fields (Eni operator 25.6%, Chevron 31%, Sonangol 18.8%, BP 11.8%, and Total 11.8%).

On 14 November, BP signed an agreement to acquire KrisEnergy’s 30% non-operating working interest in the Andaman II production-sharing contract* in the Malacca Strait, Indonesia, subject to government approval.

On 15 November, BP Trinidad and Tobago LLC announced a gas discovery with the Ginger exploration well, offshore Trinidad. The well is currently under evaluation.

In November, BP signed agreements to sell its interests in the San Juan field in Colorado and New Mexico, and in the Arkoma field in Oklahoma, US. Subject to regulatory approvals, the transactions are expected to complete by the end of the first quarter of 2020.

On 30 November, the Trans-Anatolian Natural Gas Pipeline (TANAP) through Turkey and its connection to the Trans Adriatic Pipeline (TAP) in Greece was completed. TANAP is expected to begin transporting gas to Turkish and European markets in late 2020 (Azeri state energy company SOCAR 51%, BOTAS 30%, BP 12%, and SOCAR Turkey 7%).

On 16 December, BP confirmed the production licence extension on Block 17, offshore Angola, to 2045, and for Sonangol to assume an equity interest in the block (Total operator 38%, Equinor 22.16%, ExxonMobil 19%, BP 15.84%, and Sonangol 5%).

On 7 January 2020, BP announced it has agreed terms to sell its interest in the Andrew area and the Shearwater field, both located in the UK North Sea, to Premier Oil. Subject to regulatory approval, the transaction is expected to complete by the end of the third quarter of 2020.

On 4 February 2020, BP confirmed the start-up of oil production from the Alligin field in the UK North Sea. This was the fifth major project start-up in 2019 (BP operator 50% and Shell 50%).

Outlook

We expect full-year 2020 underlying production to be lower than 2019 due to declines in lower margin gas basins. We expect reported production to be lower due to the above factor and the impact of the ongoing divestment programme.

We expect first-quarter 2020 reported production to be lower than fourth-quarter 2019 due to the impact of our ongoing divestment programme and planned seasonal maintenance and turnaround activities.

The commentary above contains forward-looking statements and should be read in conjunction with the cautionary statement on page 39.

Financial results

The replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $1,433 million and $6,502 million respectively, compared with $2,138 million and $6,940 million for the same periods in 2018.

The fourth quarter and full year include a net non-operating charge of $28 million and $77 million respectively, compared with a charge of $401 million and $716 million for the same periods in 2018. Fair value accounting effects in the fourth quarter and full year had a favourable impact of $23 million and $160 million respectively, compared with $370 million and $95 million in the same periods in 2018.

After adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting effects, the underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $1,438 million and $6,419 million respectively, compared with $2,169 million and $7,561 million for the same periods in 2018.

Replacement cost profit before interest and tax for the fuels, lubricants and petrochemicals businesses is set out on page 11.

Fuels

The fuels business reported an underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax of $1,068 million for the fourth quarter and $4,759 million for the full year, compared with $1,624 million and $5,642 million for the same periods in 2018. Year on year we delivered growth in marketing and refining operational performance, offset by a significantly weaker environment.

The result for the quarter reflects increased refining margin capture, supported by improved operations, higher levels of advantaged feedstocks, and a lower level of turnaround activity. This was more than offset, however, by narrower heavy crude oil discounts and a lower fuels marketing result compared to a very strong result in the fourth quarter of 2018.

The full-year result reflects strong refining operational performance, which led to a second consecutive year of record refining throughput and higher commercial optimization, despite high levels of turnaround activity. This was more than offset, however, by lower refining margins including significantly narrower heavy crude oil discounts, which together represented one of the weakest refining environments in the last 10 years. In fuels marketing we saw volumes and margins grow year on year, offset by adverse foreign exchange effects. The full-year result also reflects a higher contribution from supply and trading.

We continued to make strategic progress in fuels marketing, with our convenience partnership model now in around 1,600 sites across our network. We also made progress towards our growth ambition in new markets, most notably in Mexico where we now have over 520 sites, with volumes more than doubling in 2019.

In December we also signed an agreement with Reliance Industries Limited to form a fuels retail and aviation joint venture in India, providing access to one of the world’s largest and fastest growing fuels markets.

Lubricants

The lubricants business reported an underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax of $333 million for the fourth quarter and $1,258 million for the full year, compared with $311 million and $1,292 million for the same periods in 2018. The result for the full year reflects year-on-year unit margin improvement, offset by adverse foreign exchange effects.

Following the decision by Groupe Renault to select Castrol as its aftersales' global service fill engine oil lubricants partner from 1 January 2020, a new Renault Castrol jointly branded product range has been launched to all Renault dealers globally.

Petrochemicals

The petrochemicals business reported an underlying replacement cost profit before interest and tax of $37 million for the fourth quarter and $402 million for the full year, compared with $234 million and $627 million for the same periods in 2018. The result for the quarter and full year reflects a significantly weaker margin environment across both aromatics and acetyls.

In October we announced BP Infinia, an enhanced recycling technology, and in December a consortium of leading companies was formed which aims to help accelerate the commercialisation of this technology. These are important steps to enable a stronger circular economy in the polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastics industry and to help reduce plastic waste.

Outlook

Looking to the first quarter of 2020, we expect lower levels of industry refining margins and wider North American heavy crude oil discounts compared with the fourth quarter of 2019.

Financial results

Replacement cost (RC) profit before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $503 million and $2,316 million respectively, compared with $400 million and $2,221 million for the same periods in 2018.

After adjusting for non-operating items, the underlying RC profit before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $412 million and $2,419 million respectively, compared with $431 million and $2,316 million for the same periods in 2018.

Compared with the same period in 2018, the result for the fourth quarter primarily reflects lower oil prices partially offset by duty lag benefit. Compared with 2018, the result for the full year primarily reflects favourable foreign exchange and certain one-off items offset by lower oil prices.

The extraordinary general meeting held on 30 September adopted a resolution to pay interim dividends of 15.34 roubles per ordinary share which constitute 50% of Rosneft’s IFRS net profit for the first half of 2019. BP received dividends of $451 million (net of withholding tax) in November.

(a) The operational and financial information of the Rosneft segment for the fourth quarter and full year is based on preliminary operational and financial results of Rosneft for the three months and full year ended 31 December 2019. 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 segment's reported profit before interest and tax, as shown in the table above, compared with the amounts reported in Rosneft’s IFRS financial statements.

(c) BP’s adjusted share of Rosneft’s earnings after Rosneft's own finance costs, taxation and non-controlling interests is included in the BP group income statement within profit before interest and taxation. For each year-to-date period it is calculated by translating the amounts reported in Russian roubles into US dollars using the average exchange rate for the year to date.

Other businesses and corporate comprises our alternative energy business, shipping, treasury, BP ventures and corporate activities including centralized functions, and any residual costs of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill.

Financial results

The replacement cost loss before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $1,432 million and $2,771 million respectively, compared with $1,110 million and $3,521 million for the same periods in 2018.

The results included a net non-operating charge of $1,182 million for the fourth quarter and $1,491 million for the full year, primarily relating to the reclassification of $877 million of accumulated foreign exchange losses from reserves to the income statement which arose as a result of the contribution of our Brazilian biofuels business to BP Bunge Bioenergia, as well as costs of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill, compared with a charge of $766 million and $1,963 million for the same periods in 2018.

After adjusting for non-operating items, the underlying replacement cost loss before interest and tax for the fourth quarter and full year was $250 million and $1,280 million respectively, compared with $344 million and $1,558 million for the same periods in 2018.

Alternative Energy

The net ethanol-equivalent production (which includes ethanol and sugar) for the fourth quarter and full year was 172 million litres and 796 million litres respectively, compared with 144 million litres and 765 million litres for the same periods in 2018.

Net wind generation capacity* was 926MW at 31 December 2019, compared with 1,001MW at 31 December 2018. BP’s net share of wind generation for the fourth quarter and full year was 785GWh and 2,752GWh respectively, compared with 933GWh and 3,821GWh for the same periods in 2018. The lower production and reduced capacity in 2019 is due to divestments in the fourth quarter of 2018 and second quarter of 2019.

Lightsource BP has an operating portfolio of 2GW of solar projects under its management and has plans for 10GW of developed assets by the end of 2023. During the fourth quarter BP increased its shareholding, to become an equal partner in the business, with the balance of shares continuing to be held by Lightsource BP's management and staff.

In November, Lightsource BP became the first company in the UK to provide a reactive power service from a solar plant at night following a successful trial at its East Sussex solar plant. The trial follows three years of testing and development working with UK Power Networks and the National Grid Electricity System Operator.

In December, BP and Bunge Limited completed the formation of BP Bunge Bioenergia. The joint venture combines the Brazilian biofuels and biopower assets of the two companies into a 50/50 JV, and has 11 biofuel sites, with 32 million metric tonnes of combined crushing capacity per year. In 2018 the combined operations produced around 2.2 billion litres of ethanol equivalent and after powering the sites, exported 1,200 gigawatt-hours of low-carbon biopower to the national grid.

In early January 2020, BP participated in an artificial intelligence (AI) venture by investing in energy management specialist R&B whose systems are designed to predict, control and improve a building’s energy use. Buildings currently account for one third of the world’s total energy consumption and this venture will enable building managers to make informed decisions to optimize energy use and reduce carbon emissions.

Outlook

Other businesses and corporate average quarterly charges, excluding non-operating items, are expected to be around $350 million although this will fluctuate quarter to quarter.

Notes

Note 1. Basis of preparation

The results for the interim periods and the year ended 31 December 2019 are unaudited and, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results for each period. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. This report should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and related notes for the year ended 31 December 2018 included in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F2018.

BP prepares its consolidated financial statements included within BP Annual Report and Form 20-F on the basis of International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB), IFRS as adopted by the European Union (EU) and in accordance with the provisions of the UK Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies reporting under IFRS. IFRS as adopted by the EU differs in certain respects from IFRS as issued by the IASB. The differences have no impact on the group’s consolidated financial statements for the periods presented.

The financial information presented herein has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies expected to be used in preparingBP Annual Report and Form 20-F2019, which are the same as those used inpreparing BP Annual Report and Form 20-F2018with the exception of the adoption of IFRS 16 'Leases' from 1 January 2019.

Changes in significant accounting estimates

In BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2018 we disclosed significant estimates relating to provisions and the recoverability of asset carrying values. During the fourth quarter 2019 certain key assumptions used in these estimates were reviewed.

Provisions discount rate

The nominal discount rate applied to provisions was revised to 2.5% (31 December 2018 3.0%). The principal impact of this rate reduction was a $1.4 billion increase in the decommissioning provision with a similar increase in the carrying amount of property, plant and equipment.

Impairment testing assumptions

The price assumptions used in value-in-use impairment testing were reviewed. The long-term assumption for Brent oil used in the fourth quarter is derived from $70 per barrel in 2015 prices (31 December 2018 $75 per barrel). The long-term natural gas price assumption for Henry Hub used in the fourth quarter is unchanged from 2018. Short-term oil and gas price assumptions were updated to reflect recent market rates and a gradual transition to the long-term assumptions over 5 years for Brent oil (2018 5 years), and 12 years for Henry Hub gas (2018 5 years).

The pre-tax discount rate applied to value-in-use impairment testing during the fourth quarter typically ranged from 7% to 13% depending on the applicable tax rate in the geographic location of the relevant cash-generating unit (31 December 2018 9%). The additional premium applied to higher-risk countries ranged from 1% to 4% (31 December 2018 2%).

The revision to the group’s oil and gas price assumptions and impairment discount rates did not result in the recognition of any significant impairment charges.

Further details will be provided in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2019, which is expected to be published in March 2020.

New International Financial Reporting Standards adopted

BP adopted IFRS 16 ‘Leases’, which replaced IAS 17 ‘Leases’ and IFRIC 4 ‘Determining whether an arrangement contains a lease’, with effect from 1 January 2019. Further information is included in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2018 - Financial statements - Note 1 Significant accounting policies, judgements, estimates and assumptions - Impact of new International Financial Reporting Standards.

IFRS 16 provides a new model for lessee accounting in which the majority of leases are accounted for by the recognition on the balance sheet of a right-of-use asset and a lease liability.

Agreements that convey the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration are accounted for as leases. A lease liability is recognized at the present value of future lease payments over the reasonably certain lease term. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or a rate are not included in the lease liability. The right-of-use asset is recognized at a value equivalent to the initial measurement of the lease liability adjusted for lease prepayments, lease incentives, initial direct costs and any restoration obligations. The subsequent amortization of the right-of-use asset and the interest expense related to the lease liability are recognized in the income statement over the lease term.

The group recognizes the full lease liability, rather than its working interest share, for leases entered into on behalf of a joint operation if the group has the primary responsibility for making the lease payments. If the right-of-use asset is jointly controlled by the group and the other joint operators, a receivable is recognized for the share of the asset transferred to the other joint operators.

BP elected to apply the modified retrospective transition approach in which the cumulative effect of initial application is recognized in opening retained earnings at the date of initial application with no restatement of comparative periods’ financial information. Comparative information in the group balance sheet and group cash flow statement has, however, been re-presented to align with current year presentation, showing lease liabilities and lease liability payments as separate line items.

19

Note 1. Basis of preparation (continued)

These were previously included within the finance debt and repayments of long-term financing line items respectively. Amounts presented in these line items for the comparative periods relate to leases accounted for as finance leases under IAS 17.

IFRS 16 introduces a revised definition of a lease. As permitted by the standard, BP elected not to reassess the existing population of leases under the new definition and will only apply the new definition for the assessment of contracts entered into after the transition date. On transition the standard permits, on a lease-by-lease basis, the right-of-use asset to be measured either at an amount equal to the lease liability (as adjusted for prepaid or accrued lease payments), or on a historical basis as if the standard had always applied. BP elected to use the historical asset measurement for its more material leases and used the asset equals liability approach for the remainder of the population. BP also elected to adjust the carrying amounts of the right-of-use assets as at 1 January 2019 for onerous lease provisions that had been recognized on the group balance sheet as at 31 December 2018, rather than performing impairment tests on transition.

The effect of the adoption of IFRS 16 on the group balance sheet is set out below.

			Adjustment

	101,548	101,218	(330	)

The presentation and timing of recognition of charges in the income statement has changed following the adoption of IFRS 16. The operating lease expense previously reported under IAS 17, typically on a straight-line basis, has been replaced by depreciation of the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease liability. In the cash flow statement payments are now presented as financing cash flows, representing payments of principal, and as operating cash flows, representing payments of interest. Variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are not included in the lease liability and will continue to be presented as operating cash flows. In prior years, operating lease payments were principally presented within cash flows from operating activities.

IFRIC agenda decision on IFRS 9 'Financial Instruments'

In March 2019, the IFRS Interpretations Committee (IFRIC) issued an agenda decision on the application of IFRS 9 to the physical settlement of contracts to buy or sell a non-financial item. The agenda decision concluded that where a derivative contract is settled by the physical receipt (or delivery) of the commodity, the transaction price reported for the purchase (or sale) should include the fair value of the derivative instrument in addition to the cash payable (or receivable). BP is currently assessing the impact of the agenda decision but expects it to have no effect on reported earnings. Further details will be provided in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2019.

Note 2. Non-current assets held for sale

The carrying amount of assets classified as held for sale at 31 December 2019 is $7,465 million, with associated liabilities of $1,393 million.

These principally relate to two material disposal transactions which have been classified as held for sale in the group balance sheet.

On 27 August 2019, BP announced that it had agreed to sell all its Alaska operations and interests to Hilcorp Energy for up to $5.6 billion, subject to customary closing adjustments, of which $1.6 billion is contingent on future cash flows. The sale will include BP’s entire upstream and midstream business in the state, including BP Exploration (Alaska) Inc., which owns all of BP’s upstream oil and gas interests in Alaska, and BP Pipelines (Alaska) Inc.’s 49% interest in the Trans Alaska Pipeline System (TAPS). BP will retain decommissioning liability relating to TAPS, which will be partially offset by a 30% cost reimbursement from Hilcorp. The deal, which is subject to governmental authorizations, is expected to complete during 2020. Assets of $6,518 million and associated liabilities of $969 million relating to this transaction are classified as held for sale at 31 December 2019.

In November 2019, BP agreed to sell its interests in the San Juan basin in Colorado and New Mexico to IKAV.The deal is expected to complete during the first half of 2020. Assets and associated liabilities relating to this transaction are classified as held for sale at 31 December 2019.

21

Note 3. Impairment and losses on sale of businesses and fixed assets

Included within the line item in the income statement for impairment and losses on sale of businesses and fixed assets is a net impairment charge for the fourth quarter of $2,543 million. The net charge for the year is $6,716 million.

The impairment charges, which are substantially all reported in the Upstream segment, principally relate to BP’s ongoing divestment programme. They include $1,986 million in the fourth quarter and $4,703 million in the year relating to heritage BPX Energy assets; $258 million in the fourth quarter and the $1,264 million in the year relating to the group’s interests in its Alaska business; and $244 million in the year relating to the group’s interests in Gulf of Suez oil concessions in Egypt. The impairment charges were determined based on the assets' fair value less costs of disposal referenced to expected sales proceeds. See Note 1 and Note 2 for further information.

Also included is an $877 million loss on disposal relating to the reclassification of accumulated foreign exchange losses from reserves which arose as a result of the contribution of our Brazilian biofuels business to BP Bunge Bioenergia.

Note 8. Earnings per share and shares in issue

Basic earnings per ordinary share (EpS) amounts are calculated by dividing the profit (loss) for the period attributable to ordinary shareholders by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during the period. During the quarter the company repurchased for cancellation 184 million ordinary shares for a total cost of $1,171 million, including transaction costs of $6 million, as part of the share buyback programme announced on 31 October 2017. This brings the total number of shares repurchased in the year to 235 million for a total cost of $1,511 million, including transaction costs of $8 million. A further 120 million of shares have been repurchased in January 2020 at a total cost of $776 million. The number of shares in issue is reduced when shares are repurchased.

The calculation of EpS is performed separately for each discrete quarterly period, and for the year-to-date period. As a result, the sum of the discrete quarterly EpS amounts in any particular year-to-date period may not be equal to the EpS amount for the year-to-date period.

For the diluted EpS calculation the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period is adjusted for the number of shares that are potentially issuable in connection with employee share-based payment plans using the treasury stock method.

Note 9. Dividends

Dividends payable

BP today announced an interim dividend of 10.50 cents per ordinary share which is expected to be paid on 27 March 2020 to ordinary shareholders and American Depositary Share (ADS) holders on the register on 14 February 2020. The corresponding amount in sterling is due to be announced on 16 March 2020, calculated based on the average of the market exchange rates for the four dealing days commencing on 10 March 2020. Holders of ADSs are expected to receive $0.630 per ADS (less applicable fees). The board has decided not to offer a scrip dividend alternative in respect of the fourth quarter 2019 dividend. Ordinary shareholders and ADS holders (subject to certain exceptions) will be able to participate in a dividend reinvestment programme. Details of the fourth quarter dividend and timetable are available at bp.com/dividends and further details of the dividend reinvestment programmes are available at bp.com/drip.

(b) 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 $601 million (fourth quarter2018 liability of $827 million) are not included in the calculation of net debt shown above as hedge accounting is not applied for these instruments.

As a result of the adoption of IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ from 1 January 2019, leases that were previously classified as finance leases under IAS 17 are now presented as ‘Lease liabilities’ on the group balance sheet and therefore do not form part of finance debt. Comparative information for finance debt (previously termed ‘gross debt’), net debt and gearing (previously termed 'net debt ratio') have been amended to be on a consistent basis with amounts presented for 2019. The relevant amount for finance lease liabilities that has been excluded from comparative information for the fourth quarter and full year2018 is $667 million. The previously disclosed amount for finance debt for the fourth quarter and full year2018 was $65,799 million. The previously disclosed amount for net debt for the fourth quarter and full year2018 was $44,144 million. The previously disclosed gearing for the fourth quarter and full year2018 was 30.3%.

Additional information

Effects on the financial statements of the adoption of IFRS 16 ‘Leases’

BP adopted IFRS 16 ‘Leases’ with effect from 1 January 2019. The principal effects of the adoption are described below. BP elected to apply the modified retrospective transition approach in which the cumulative effect of initial application is recognized in opening retained earnings at the date of initial application with no restatement of comparative periods’ financial information. For further information of the effects of adoption see Financial statements - Note 1 and Note 10.

Balance sheet

As a result of the adoption of IFRS 16, $9.0 billion of right-of-use assets and $9.7 billion of lease liabilities have been included in the group balance sheet as at 31 December 2019. Lease liabilities are now presented separately on the group balance sheet and do not form part of finance debt. Comparative information for finance debt in the group balance sheet has been re-presented to align with current year presentation.

	31 December	31 December
$ billion	2019	2018
Property, plant and equipment(a) (b)	9.0	0.5
Lease liabilities(a)	9.7	0.7
Finance debt	67.7	65.1

(a) Comparative information represents finance leases accounted for under IAS 17.

(b) Net additions to right-of-use assets for the fourth quarter and full year2019 were $0.5 billion and $2.5 billion respectively.

Income statement

The presentation and timing of recognition of charges in the income statement has changed following the adoption of IFRS 16. The operating lease expense reported under the previous lease accounting standard, IAS 17, typically on a straight-line basis, has been replaced by depreciation of the right-of-use asset and interest on the lease liability. Depreciation of right-of-use assets for the fourth quarter and full year2019 was $0.5 billion and $1.9 billion respectively. Interest on the group’s lease liabilities for the fourth quarter and full year2019 was $0.1 billion and $0.4 billion respectively. Operating lease expenses were previously principally included within Production and manufacturing expenses and Distribution and administration expenses in the income statement. It is estimated that the resulting benefit to these line items is largely offset, in total, by an equivalent amount in depreciation and interest charges. Therefore, there has been no material overall effect on group profit measures in the fourth quarter and full year 2019.

Cash flow statement

Lease payments are now presented as financing cash flows, representing payments of principal, and as operating cash flows, representing payments of interest. In prior years, operating lease payments were presented as operating cash flows and capital expenditure. Of the $0.6 billion of lease payments included within financing activities for the fourth quarter of 2019, it is estimated that $0.5 billion would have been reported as operating cash flows and $0.1 billion would have been reported as capital expenditure cash flows ignoring the effects of IFRS 16. Of the $2.4 billion of lease payments included within financing activities for the full year2019, it is estimated that $2.0 billion would have been reported as operating cash flows and $0.4 billion would have been reported as capital expenditure cash flows ignoring the effects of IFRS 16.

BP uses derivative instruments to manage the economic exposure relating to inventories above normal operating requirements of crude oil, natural gas and petroleum products. Under IFRS, these inventories are recorded at historical cost. The related derivative instruments, however, are required to be recorded at fair value with gains and losses recognized in the income statement. This is because hedge accounting is either not permitted or not followed, principally due to the impracticality of effectiveness-testing requirements. Therefore, measurement differences in relation to recognition of gains and losses occur. Gains and losses on these inventories are not recognized until the commodity is sold in a subsequent accounting period. Gains and losses on the related derivative commodity contracts are recognized in the income statement, from the time the derivative commodity contract is entered into, on a fair value basis using forward prices consistent with the contract maturity.

BP enters into physical commodity contracts to meet certain business requirements, such as the purchase of crude for a refinery or the sale of BP’s gas production. Under IFRS these physical contracts are treated as derivatives and are required to be fair valued when they are managed as part of a larger portfolio of similar transactions. Gains and losses arising are recognized in the income statement from the time the derivative commodity contract is entered into.

IFRS require that inventory held for trading is recorded at its fair value using period-end spot prices, whereas any related derivative commodity instruments are required to be recorded at values based on forward prices consistent with the contract maturity. Depending on market conditions, these forward prices can be either higher or lower than spot prices, resulting in measurement differences.

BP enters into contracts for pipelines and other transportation, storage capacity, oil and gas processing and liquefied natural gas (LNG) that, under IFRS, are recorded on an accruals basis.These contracts are risk-managed using a variety of derivative instruments that are fair valued under IFRS. This results in measurement differences in relation to recognition of gains and losses.

The way that BP manages the economic exposures described above, and measures performance internally, differs from the way these activities are measured under IFRS. BP calculates this difference for consolidated entities by comparing the IFRS result with management’s internal measure of performance. Under management’s internal measure of performance the inventory, transportation and capacity contracts in question are valued based on fair value using relevant forward prices prevailing at the end of the period.The fair values of derivative instruments used to risk manage certain oil, gas and other contracts, are deferred to match with the underlying exposure and the commodity contracts for business requirements are accounted for on an accruals basis. We believe that disclosing management’s estimate of this difference provides useful information for investors because it enables investors to see the economic effect of these activities as a whole.

In addition, fair value accounting effects include changes in the fair value of the near-term portions of LNG contracts that fall within BP’s risk management framework. LNG contracts are not considered derivatives, because there is insufficient market liquidity, and they are therefore accrual accounted under IFRS. However, oil and natural gas derivative financial instruments (used to risk manage the near-term portions of the LNG contracts) are fair valued under IFRS. The fair value accounting effect reduces timing differences between recognition of the derivative financial instruments used to risk manage the LNG contracts and the recognition of the LNG contracts themselves, which therefore gives a better representation of performance in each period.

Readily marketable inventory (RMI) is oil and oil products inventory held and price risk-managed by BP’s integrated supply and trading function (IST) which could be sold to generate funds if required. Paid-up RMI is RMI that BP has paid for.

We believe that disclosing the amounts of RMI and paid-up RMI is useful to investors as it enables them to better understand and evaluate the group’s inventories and liquidity position by enabling them to see the level of discretionary inventory held by IST and to see builds or releases of liquid trading inventory.

See the Glossary on page 35 for a more detailed definition of RMI. RMI at fair value, paid-up RMI and unpaid RMI are non-GAAP measures. A reconciliation of total inventory as reported on the group balance sheet to paid-up RMI is provided below.

Gulf of Mexico oil spill

Net cash from operating activities relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill on a pre-tax basis amounted to an outflow of $125 million and $2,694 million in the fourth quarter and full year of 2019 respectively. For the same periods in 2018, the amount was an outflow of $273 million and $3,531 million respectively. Net cash outflows relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill in 2019 and 2018 include payments made under the 2016 consent decree and settlement agreement with the United States and the five Gulf coast states. Cash outflows in 2018 also include the final payment made under the 2012 agreement with the US government to resolve all federal criminal claims arising from the incident. Net cash from operating activities relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill on a post-tax basis amounted to an inflow of $42 million and an outflow of $2,429 million in the fourth quarter and full year of 2019 respectively. For the same periods in 2018, the amount was an outflow of $272 million and $3,218 million respectively.

Legal proceedings

For a full discussion of the group’s material legal proceedings, see pages 296-298 of BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2018, and page 35 of BP p.l.c. Group results second quarter and half-year 2019.

Glossary

Non-GAAP measures are provided for investors because they are closely tracked by management to evaluate BP’s operating performance and to make financial, strategic and operating decisions. Non-GAAP measures are sometimes referred to as alternative performance measures.

Capital expenditure is total cash capital expenditure as stated in the condensed group cash flow statement.

Consolidation adjustment – UPII is unrealized profit in inventory arising on inter-segment transactions.

Divestment proceeds are disposal proceeds as per the condensed group cash flow statement.

Effective tax rate (ETR) on replacement cost (RC) profit or loss is a non-GAAP measure. The ETR on RC profit or loss is calculated by dividing taxation on a RC basis by RC profit or loss before tax. Information on RC profit or loss is provided below. BP believes it is helpful to disclose the ETR on RC profit or loss because this measure excludes the impact of price changes on the replacement of inventories and allows for more meaningful comparisons between reporting periods. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis is the ETR on profit or loss for the period. A reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 33.

Fair value accounting effects are non-GAAP adjustments to our IFRS profit (loss). They reflect the difference between the way BP manages the economic exposure and internally measures performance of certain activities and the way those activities are measured under IFRS. Further information on fair value accounting effects is provided on page 30.

Finance debt ratio is defined as the ratio of finance debt to the total of finance debt plus total equity.

Free cash flow is operating cash flow less net cash used in investing activities and lease liability payments included in financing activities, as presented in the condensed group cash flow statement.

Gearing and net debt are non-GAAP measures. Net debt is calculated as finance debt, as shown in the balance sheet, plus the fair value of associated derivative financial instruments that are used to hedge foreign currency exchange and interest rate risks relating to finance debt, for which hedge accounting is applied, less cash and cash equivalents. Gearing is defined as the ratio of net debt to the total of net debt plus total equity. BP believes these measures provide useful information to investors. Net debt enables investors to see the economic effect of finance debt, related hedges and cash and cash equivalents in total. Gearing enables investors to see how significant net debt is relative to total equity. The derivatives are reported on the balance sheet within the headings ‘Derivative financial instruments’. The nearest equivalent GAAP measures on an IFRS basis are finance debt and finance debt ratio. A reconciliation of finance debt to net debt is provided on page 25.

We are unable to present reconciliations of forward-looking information for gearing to finance debt ratio, because without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to forecast accurately certain adjusting items required to present a meaningful comparable GAAP forward-looking financial measure. These items include fair value asset (liability) of hedges related to finance debt and cash and cash equivalents, that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate.

Hydrocarbons– Liquids and natural gas. Natural gas is converted to oil equivalent at 5.8 billion cubic feet = 1 million barrels.

Inorganic capital expenditure is a subset of capital expenditure and is a non-GAAP measure. Inorganic capital expenditure comprises consideration in business combinations and certain other significant investments made by the group. It is reported on a cash basis. BP believes that this measure provides useful information as it allows investors to understand how BP’s management invests funds in projects which expand the group’s activities through acquisition. Further information and a reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 28.

Glossary (continued)

Inventory holding gains and losses represent the difference between the cost of sales calculated using the replacement cost of inventory and the cost of sales calculated on the first-in first-out (FIFO) method after adjusting for any changes in provisions where the net realizable value of the inventory is lower than its cost. Under the FIFO method, which we use for IFRS reporting, the cost of inventory charged to the income statement is based on its historical cost of purchase or manufacture, rather than its replacement cost. In volatile energy markets, this can have a significant distorting effect on reported income. The amounts disclosed represent the difference between the charge to the income statement for inventory on a FIFO basis (after adjusting for any related movements in net realizable value provisions) and the charge that would have arisen based on the replacement cost of inventory. For this purpose, the replacement cost of inventory is calculated using data from each operation’s production and manufacturing system, either on a monthly basis, or separately for each transaction where the system allows this approach. The amounts disclosed are not separately reflected in the financial statements as a gain or loss. No adjustment is made in respect of the cost of inventories held as part of a trading position and certain other temporary inventory positions. See Replacement cost (RC) profit or loss definition below.

Liquids – Liquids for Upstream and Rosneft comprises crude oil, condensate and natural gas liquids. For Upstream, liquids also includes bitumen.

Net debt including leasesis a non-GAAP measure. Net debt including leases is calculated as net debt plus lease liabilities, less the net amount of partner receivables and payables relating to leases entered into on behalf of joint operations. BP believes this measure provides useful information to investors as it enables investors to understand the impact of the group’s lease portfolio on net debt. The nearest equivalent GAAP measure on an IFRS basis is finance debt. A reconciliation of finance debt to net debt including leases is provided on page 25.

Net wind generation capacity is the sum of the rated capacities of the assets/turbines that have entered into commercial operation, including BP’s share of equity-accounted entities.

Non-operating items are charges and credits included in the financial statements that BP discloses separately because it considers such disclosures to be meaningful and relevant to investors. They are items that management considers not to be part of underlying business operations and are disclosed in order to enable investors better to understand and evaluate the group’s reported financial performance. Non-operating items within equity-accounted earnings are reported net of incremental income tax reported by the equity-accounted entity. An analysis of non-operating items by region is shown on pages 9, 11 and 13, and by segment and type is shown on page 29.

Operating cash flowis net cash provided by (used in) operating activities as stated in the condensed group cash flow statement. When used in the context of a segment rather than the group, the terms refer to the segment’s share thereof.

Operating cash flow excluding Gulf of Mexico oil spill payments is a non-GAAP measure. It is calculated by excluding post-tax operating cash flows relating to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill from net cash provided by operating activities as reported in the condensed group cash flow statement. BP believes net cash provided by operating activities excluding amounts related to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill is a useful measure as it allows for more meaningful comparisons between reporting periods. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis is net cash provided by operating activities.

Organic capital expenditure is a subset of capital expenditure and is a non-GAAP measure. Organic capital expenditure comprises capital expenditure less inorganic capital expenditure. BP believes that this measure provides useful information as it allows investors to understand how BP’s management invests funds in developing and maintaining the group’s assets. An analysis of organic capital expenditure by segment and region, and a reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 28.

We are unable to present reconciliations of forward-looking information for organic capital expenditure to total cash capital expenditure, because without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to forecast accurately the adjusting item, inorganic capital expenditure, that is difficult to predict in advance in order to derive the nearest GAAP estimate.

Production-sharing agreement/contract (PSA/PSC) is an arrangement through which an oil and gas company bears the risks and costs of exploration, development and production. In return, if exploration is successful, the oil company receives entitlement to variable physical volumes of hydrocarbons, representing recovery of the costs incurred and a stipulated share of the production remaining after such cost recovery.

Readily marketable inventory (RMI) is inventory held and price risk-managed by our integrated supply and trading function (IST) which could be sold to generate funds if required. It comprises oil and oil products for which liquid markets are available and excludes inventory which is required to meet operational requirements and other inventory which is not price risk-managed. RMI is reported at fair value. Inventory held by the Downstream fuels business for the purpose of sales and marketing, and all inventories relating to the lubricants and petrochemicals businesses, are not included in RMI.

Paid-up RMI excludes RMI which has not yet been paid for. For inventory that is held in storage, a first-in first-out (FIFO) approach is used to determine whether inventory has been paid for or not. Unpaid RMI is RMI which has not yet been paid for by BP. RMI at fair value, Paid-up RMI and Unpaid RMI are non-GAAP measures. Further information is provided on page 31.

Realizations are the result of dividing revenue generated from hydrocarbon sales, excluding revenue generated from purchases made for resale and royalty volumes, by revenue generating hydrocarbon production volumes. Revenue generating hydrocarbon production reflects the BP share of production as adjusted for any production which does not generate revenue. Adjustments may include losses due to shrinkage, amounts consumed during processing, and contractual or regulatory host committed volumes such as royalties.

Glossary (continued)

Refining availabilityrepresents Solomon Associates’ operational availability for BP-operated refineries, which is defined as the percentage of the year that a unit is available for processing after subtracting the annualized time lost due to turnaround activity and all planned mechanical, process and regulatory downtime.

The Refining marker margin (RMM) is the average of regional indicator margins weighted for BP’s crude refining capacity in each region. Each regional marker margin is based on product yields and a marker crude oil deemed appropriate for the region. The regional indicator margins may not be representative of the margins achieved by BP in any period because of BP’s particular refinery configurations and crude and product slate.

Replacement cost (RC) profit or loss reflects the replacement cost of inventories sold in the period and is arrived at by excluding inventory holding gains and losses from profit or loss. RC profit or loss for the group is not a recognized GAAP measure. BP believes this measure is useful to illustrate to investors the fact that crude oil and product prices can vary significantly from period to period and that the impact on our reported result under IFRS can be significant. Inventory holding gains and losses vary from period to period due to changes in prices as well as changes in underlying inventory levels. In order for investors to understand the operating performance of the group excluding the impact of price changes on the replacement of inventories, and to make comparisons of operating performance between reporting periods, BP’s management believes it is helpful to disclose this measure. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis is profit or loss attributable to BP shareholders. A reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 3. RC profit or loss before interest and tax is the measure of profit or loss that is required to be disclosed for each operating segment under IFRS.

RC profit or loss per share is a non-GAAP measure. Earnings per share is defined in Note 8. RC profit or loss per share is calculated using the same denominator. The numerator used is RC profit or loss attributable to BP shareholders rather than profit or loss attributable to BP shareholders. BP believes it is helpful to disclose the RC profit or loss per share because this measure excludes the impact of price changes on the replacement of inventories and allows for more meaningful comparisons between reporting periods. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis is basic earnings per share based on profit or loss for the period attributable to BP shareholders. A reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 32.

Reported recordable injury frequency measures the number of reported work-related employee and contractor incidents that result in a fatality or injury per 200,000 hours worked. This represents reported incidents occurring within BP’s operational HSSE reporting boundary. That boundary includes BP’s own operated facilities and certain other locations or situations.

Reserves replacement ratio is the extent to which the year’s production has been replaced by proved reserves added to our reserve base. The ratio is expressed in oil-equivalent terms and includes changes resulting from discoveries, improved recovery and extensions and revisions to previous estimates, but excludes changes resulting from acquisitions and disposals. The reserves replacement ratio will be reported in BP Annual Report and Form 20-F 2019.

Return on average capital employed (ROACE) is a non-GAAP measure and is underlying replacement cost profit, after adding back non-controlling interest and interest expense net of tax, divided by average capital employed (total equity plus finance debt), excluding cash and cash equivalents and goodwill. Interest expense is finance costs excluding lease interest and the unwinding of the discount on provisions and other payables, and for full year 2019 interest expense was $2,032 million (2018 $1,779 million) before tax. BP believes it is helpful to disclose the ROACE because this measure gives an indication of the company's capital efficiency. The nearest GAAP measures of the numerator and denominator are profit or loss for the period attributable to BP shareholders and average capital employed respectively. A reconciliation of the numerator and denominator is provided on page 33.

Solomon availability – See Refining availability definition.

Tier 1 and tier 2 process safety events – Tier 1 events are losses of primary containment from a process of greatest consequence – causing harm to a member of the workforce, damage to equipment from a fire or explosion, a community impact or exceeding defined quantities. Tier 2 events are those of lesser consequence. These represent reported incidents occurring within BP’s operational HSSE reporting boundary. That boundary includes BP’s own operated facilities and certain other locations or situations.

Underlying effective tax rate (ETR) is a non-GAAP measure. The underlying ETR is calculated by dividing taxation on an underlying replacement cost (RC) basis by underlying RC profit or loss before tax. Taxation on an underlying RC basis is taxation on a RC basis for the period adjusted for taxation on non-operating items and fair value accounting effects. Information on underlying RC profit or loss is provided below. BP believes it is helpful to disclose the underlying ETR because this measure may help investors to understand and evaluate, in the same manner as management, the underlying trends in BP’s operational performance on a comparable basis, period on period. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis is the ETR on profit or loss for the period. A reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 33.

We are unable to present reconciliations of forward-looking information for underlying ETR to ETR on profit or loss for the period, because without unreasonable efforts, we are unable to forecast accurately certain adjusting items required to present a meaningful comparable GAAP forward-looking financial measure. These items include the taxation on inventory holding gains and losses, non-operating items and fair value accounting effects, that are difficult to predict in advance in order to include in a GAAP estimate.

Underlying production – 2019 underlying production, when compared with 2018, is production after adjusting for BPX Energy, other acquisitions and divestments, and entitlement impacts in our production-sharing agreements.

37

Glossary (continued)

Underlying RC profit or loss is RC profit or loss after adjusting for non-operating items and fair value accounting effects. Underlying RC profit or loss and adjustments for fair value accounting effects are not recognized GAAP measures. See pages 29 and 30 for additional information on the non-operating items and fair value accounting effects that are used to arrive at underlying RC profit or loss in order to enable a full understanding of the events and their financial impact. BP believes that underlying RC profit or loss is a useful measure for investors because it is a measure closely tracked by management to evaluate BP’s operating performance and to make financial, strategic and operating decisions and because it may help investors to understand and evaluate, in the same manner as management, the underlying trends in BP’s operational performance on a comparable basis, period on period, by adjusting for the effects of these non-operating items and fair value accounting effects. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis for the group is profit or loss attributable to BP shareholders. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis for segments is RC profit or loss before interest and taxation. A reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 3.

Underlying RC profit or loss per share is a non-GAAP measure. Earnings per share is defined in Note 8. Underlying RC profit or loss per share is calculated using the same denominator. The numerator used is underlying RC profit or loss attributable to BP shareholders rather than profit or loss attributable to BP shareholders. BP believes it is helpful to disclose the underlying RC profit or loss per share because this measure may help investors to understand and evaluate, in the same manner as management, the underlying trends in BP’s operational performance on a comparable basis, period on period. The nearest equivalent measure on an IFRS basis is basic earnings per share based on profit or loss for the period attributable to BP shareholders. A reconciliation to GAAP information is provided on page 32.

Upstream plant reliability (BP-operated) is calculated taking 100% less the ratio of total unplanned plant deferrals divided by installed production capacity. Unplanned plant deferrals are associated with the topside plant and where applicable the subsea equipment (excluding wells and reservoir). Unplanned plant deferrals include breakdowns, which does not include Gulf of Mexico weather related downtime.

Upstream unit production cost is calculated as production cost divided by units of production. Production cost does not include ad valorem and severance taxes. Units of production are barrels for liquids and thousands of cubic feet for gas. Amounts disclosed are for BP subsidiaries only and do not include BP’s share of equity-accounted entities.
