Commenting on the results, Chairman and CEO Christophe de Margerie said:

« Growing geopolitical tensions and the aftermath of the earthquake in Japan will shift the balance of the global energy markets. In the face of these new challenges, Total confirms its strategy of investing to increase its production to better respond to changes in energy demand and in the energy mix.

In a context of rising hydrocarbon prices, the quality and diversity of the asset portfolio allowed adjusted net income to increase by 35% compared to the first quarter 2010. All of the segments contributed to this increase, particularly the Upstream, which benefited from its leverage to the increase in the price of hydrocarbons.

Leveraging its industrial expertise and financial strength, Total demonstrated during the first quarter its ability to finalize strategic operations. Following major transactions in Canada and Australia, Total entered into partnerships in Russia and in Uganda to create two major new production zones for the company. In addition, by agreeing to sell its interest in Cepsa and by offering to acquire SunPower, Total is actively managing its portfolio, orienting it mainly toward the Upstream, with more competitive Downstream-Chemicals and a more important new energies sector.

By continuing to adapt its integrated model to changes in the market, the development of the Group is mainly in growth areas. For this development to be sustainable and profitable for all its stakeholders, everyone at Total must continue to incorporate safety and acceptability into their daily operations. »

Results for the first quarter 2011

> Operating income

In the first quarter 2011, the Brent price averaged 105.4 $/b, an increase of 38% compared to the first quarter 2010 and 22% compared to the fourth quarter 2010. The European refining margin indicator (ERMI) averaged 24.6 $/t, a decrease compared to the first and fourth quarters of 2010. The environment for the Chemicals remained satisfactory despite an increase in raw material costs.

The euro-dollar exchange rate averaged 1.37 $/ in the first quarter 2011, close to the level of 1.38 $/ in the first quarter 2010 and 1.36 $/ in the fourth quarter 2010.

In this environment, the adjusted operating income from the business segments7 was 6,369 M, an increase of 41% compared to the first quarter 2010. Expressed in dollars, the increase was 40%.

The effective tax rate8 for the business segments fell from 57% in the first quarter 2010 to 55% in the first quarter 2011, essentially due to a decrease in the effective tax rate for the Upstream.

Adjusted net operating income from the business segments was 3,363 M in the first quarter 2011 compared to 2,283 M in the first quarter 2010, an increase of 47%. The larger increase, relative to the increase in the adjusted operating income from the business segments, is essentially due to the lower effective tax rate between the two periods.

Expressed in dollars, the adjusted net operating income from the business segments was 4.6 billion dollars (B$), an increase of 46% compared to the first quarter 2010.

> Net income (Group share)

Adjusted net income was 3,104 M in the first quarter 2011 compared to 2,296 M in the first quarter 2010, an increase of 35%. Expressed in dollars, adjusted net income increased by 34%.

Effective July 1, 2010, the Group no longer accounts for its interest in Sanofi-Aventis as an equity affiliate. In the first quarter 2010, the contribution to the Group’s adjusted net income from Sanofi Aventis was 149 M. Excluding the contribution of Sanofi-Aventis, the Group’s first quarter 2011 adjusted net income increased by 45% in euros and 43% in dollars compared to the first quarter 2010.

Adjusted net income excludes the after-tax inventory effect, special items and from January 1, 2011, the effect of changes in fair value9:

 

   

The after-tax inventory effect had a positive impact of 946 M in the first quarter 2011 and a positive impact of 344 M in the first quarter 2010.

 

   

The changes in fair value had a positive effect of 63 M in the first quarter 2011.

 

   

Special items had a negative impact on net income of 167 M in the first quarter 2011, comprised essentially of the increase in the deferred tax liability due to the change in UK taxes. Special items had a positive impact on net income of 14 M in the first quarter 2010.

 

   

In the first quarter 2010, the Group’s share of adjustment items related to Sanofi-Aventis had a negative impact on net income of 41 M.

Net income (Group share) was 3,946 M compared to 2,613 M in the first quarter 2010.

The effective tax rate8 for the Group was 55.6% in the first quarter 2011.

Adjusted fully-diluted earnings per share, based on 2,251.1 million fully-diluted weighted-average shares, was 1.38 euros compared to 1.02 euros in the first quarter 2010, an increase of 35%.

Expressed in dollars, adjusted fully-diluted earnings per share increased 33% to $1.89.

> Investments – divestments10

Investments, excluding acquisitions and including net investments in equity affiliates and non-consolidated companies, were 2.8 B (3.8 B$) in the first quarter 2011, an increase of 15% compared to 2.4 B (3.4 B$) in the first quarter 2010.

Acquisitions were 2.5 B in the first quarter 2011, comprised essentially of the acquisition of interests in the Fort Hills and Voyageur projects in Canada and the additional 7.5% interest in the GLNG project in Australia.

Asset sales in the first quarter 2011 were 296 M, essentially comprised of Sanofi-Aventis shares.

Net investments11 were 5.0 B (6.9 B$) in the first quarter 2011 compared to 2.7 B (3.7 B$) in the first quarter 2010.

> Cash flow

Cash flow from operations was 5,714 M in the first quarter 2011, an increase of 9% compared to the first quarter 2010, reflecting mainly the increase in net income offset for the most part by a change in working capital that was less favorable than in the first quarter 2010.

Adjusted cash flow from operations12 was 4,945 M, an increase of 32%.

Expressed in dollars, adjusted cash flow from operations was 6.8 B$, an increase of 31%.

The Group’s net cash flow13 was 694 M compared to 2,599 M in the first quarter 2010, a decrease of 73%.

Expressed in dollars, the Group’s net cash flow was 0.9 B$ in the first quarter 2011, or a decrease of 74% compared to the first quarter 2010, essentially due to higher acquisitions and lower asset sales.

The net-debt-to-equity ratio was 19.3% on March 31, 2011 compared to 22.2% on December 31, 2010 and 21.5% on March 31, 2010.

Adjusted net operating income from the Upstream segment was 2,849 M in the first quarter 2011 compared to 1,971 M in the first quarter 2010, an increase of 45%. Expressed in dollars, adjusted net operating income for the Upstream segment increased by 43%, reflecting essentially the impact of higher hydrocarbon prices.

The effective tax rate for the Upstream segment was 57.6% compared to 60.0% in the first quarter 2010, mainly due to portfolio mix effects and a higher contribution from the downstream gas activity in the first quarter 2011 than in the first quarter 2010.

The return on average capital employed (ROACE15) for the Upstream segment was 22%, for the twelve months ended March 31, 2011, an increase compared to the 21% ROACE in the full year 2010.

Petrochemical margins were higher in the first quarter 2011 than in the first quarter 2010. The environment for Specialty Chemicals remained favorable thanks to sustained demand across most the segment’s market sectors.

Sales for the Chemical segment were 5,105 M, an increase of 21% compared to the first quarter 2010.

The adjusted net operating income for the Chemicals segment was 238 M in the first quarter 2011, an increase of 52% compared to the first quarter 2010. The improvement in the results compared to the same quarter last year came from each of the sectors and was driven mainly by the improvement in the petrochemicals environment as well as by the increased contribution from activities in Qatar and South-Korea.

The ROACE17 of the Chemicals segment was 12% for the twelve months ended March 31, 2011, stable compared to the ROACE for the full-year 2010.

The annualized first quarter 2011 ROACE for the Chemicals segment was 13%.

Pending approval at the Annual General Meeting on May 13, 2011, TOTAL S.A. will pay on May 26, 2011, the 1.14 per share19 remainder of the 2010 dividend, which is equal in amount to the interim dividend paid in November 2010. The full-year 2010 dividend will represent a total of 2.28 per share.

In late October 2010, Total announced that it would begin paying its interim dividends on a quarterly basis starting in 2011. For the interim dividend related to the first quarter 2011, the Board of Directors decided on April 28, 2011, to pay 0.57 per share on September 22, 201120, or one-quarter of the full-year 201021 dividend.

Total completed the sale of its Cameroon exploration-production subsidiary in April, and over the coming months it intends to finalize several other previously announced asset sales, including its interest in CEPSA for around 5 B$, part of its resins activities from the Chemicals segment, and an interest in the Joslyn field in Canada. In addition, the Group is continuing to work on the sale of its refining and marketing activities in the UK as well as the ongoing sale of its shares in Sanofi-Aventis. The sum of these asset sales is expected to be approximately 10 B$ this year. Together with the strategic acquisitions made recently, these asset sales demonstrate the Group’s strategy to actively manage its asset portfolio while preserving its financial flexibility and strong balance sheet.

In the Upstream segment, second quarter 2011 production will include the positive impact of consolidating the Group’s interest in Novatek as an equity affiliate effective April 1, 2011. However, production will also include the negative impact of the shut-down in Libya, which represents approximately 2% of the Group’s production on a full-year basis.

Total is continuing to develop its major projects; for example, on the Pazflor project, the FPSO arrived in Angola in early April and is scheduled to start up as expected in the fourth quarter 2011.

In the Downstream segment, the second quarter will benefit from the start-up of the new deep-conversion unit at the Port Arthur refinery in the U.S., which makes this refinery one of the most competitive in North America.

In the Chemicals segment, Total is investing to improve the energy efficiency and competitiveness of its Normandy plant and to increase its production capacity in South-Korea and Qatar. In China, the Group is benefitting from doubling the capacity of its polystyrene facility in Foshan during the first quarter 2011.

Since the start of the second quarter 2011, the price of Brent continued to increase and is trading above 120 $/b. European refining margins have decreased compared to the first quarter, reflecting mainly the impact of the sharp increase in oil prices.

This document may contain forward-looking statements, including within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995, notably with respect to the financial condition, results of operations, business, strategy and plans of TOTAL.

Such statements are based on a number of assumptions that could ultimately prove inaccurate, and are subject to a number of risk factors, including currency fluctuations, the price of petroleum products, the ability to realize cost reductions and operating efficiencies without unduly disrupting business operations, environmental regulatory considerations and general economic and business conditions. Neither TOTAL nor any of its subsidiaries assumes any obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Further information on factors which could affect the company’s financial results is provided in documents filed by the Group with the French Autorité des Marchés Financiers and the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

Financial information by business segment is reported in accordance with the internal reporting system and shows internal segment information that is used to manage and measure the performance of TOTAL.

Performance indicators excluding the adjustment items, such as adjusted operating income, adjusted net operating income, and adjusted net income are meant to facilitate the analysis of the financial performance and the comparison of income between periods.

Adjustment items include:

(i) Special items

Due to their unusual nature or particular significance, certain transactions qualified as “special items” are excluded from the business segment figures. In general, special items relate to transactions that are significant, infrequent or unusual. However, in certain instances, transactions such as restructuring costs or asset disposals, which are not considered to be representative of the normal course of business, may be qualified as special items although they may have occurred within prior years or are likely to occur again within the coming years.

(ii) Inventory valuation effect

The adjusted results of the Downstream and Chemicals segments are presented according to the replacement cost method. This method is used to assess the segments’ performance and facilitate the comparability of the segments’ performance with those of its competitors.

In the replacement cost method, which approximates the LIFO (Last-In, First-Out) method, the variation of inventory values in the statement of income is, depending on the nature of the inventory, determined using either the month-end prices differential between one period and another or the average prices of the period rather than the historical value. The inventory valuation effect is the difference between the results according to the FIFO (First-In, First-Out) and the replacement cost.

(iii) Effect of changes in fair value

As from January 1, 2011, the effect of changes in fair value presented as an adjustment item reflects for some transactions differences between internal measures of performance used by TOTAL’s management and the accounting for these transactions under IFRS.

IFRS requires that trading inventories be recorded at their fair value using period-end spot prices. In order to best reflect the management of economic exposure through derivative transactions, internal indicators used to measure performance include valuations of trading inventories based on forward prices.

Furthermore, TOTAL, in its trading activities, enters into storage contracts, which future effects are recorded at fair value in Group’s internal economic performance. IFRS precludes recognition of this fair value effect.

 

(iv) Until June 30, 2010, TOTAL’s equity share of adjustment items reconciling “Business net income” to Net income attributable to equity holders of Sanofi-Aventis

The adjusted results (adjusted operating income, adjusted net operating income, adjusted net income) are defined as replacement cost results, adjusted for special items, excluding the effect of changes in fair value as from January 1st, 2011 and excluding TOTAL’s equity share of adjustment items related to Sanofi-Aventis until June 30, 2010.
