SHELL LOSS $18 BLN

SHELL LOSS $18 BLN

SHELLJul 30, 2020 - Income attributable to Royal Dutch Shell plc shareholders was a loss of $18.1 billion for the second quarter 2020, which included an impairment charge of $16.8 billion post-tax ($22.3 billion pre-tax), as a result of revised medium- and longterm price and refining margin outlook assumptions in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and macroeconomic conditions as well as energy market demand and supply fundamentals. Second quarter 2020 results reflected lower realised prices for oil, LNG and gas, lower realised refining margins, Oil Products sales volumes and higher well write-offs, compared with the second quarter 2019. This was partly offset by very strong crude and oil products trading and optimisation results as well as lower operating expenses.

ROYAL DUTCH SHELL PLC 2ND QUARTER 2020 AND HALF YEAR UNAUDITED RESULTS

Adjusted Earnings were $0.6 billion for the second quarter 2020, reflecting lower realised prices for oil, LNG and gas, lower realised refining margins, Oil Products sales volumes and higher well write-offs, compared with the second quarter 2019. This was partly offset by very strong crude and oil products trading and optimisation results as well as lower operating expenses.

Cash flow from operating activities for the second quarter 2020 was $2.6 billion, which included negative working capital movements of $4 billion. Cash flow from investing activities for the quarter was an outflow of $2.3 billion, driven mainly by capital expenditure, partly offset by proceeds from divestments. 

Gearing was 32.7% at the end of the second quarter 2020, compared with 28.9% at the end of the first quarter 2020, mainly driven by the impact of impairments and pension remeasurement, due to actuarial assumption changes mainly caused by falling credit spreads and increasing market estimates of future inflation, as well as a net debt increase in the quarter.

Total dividends distributed to Royal Dutch Shell plc shareholders in the quarter were $1.2 billion.
