Petrobras financial performance in 1Q22
Rio de Janeiro, May 05, 2022 - Once
again we delivered solid quarterly results. “These financial results are due to the fact that today we have a healthy Petrobras,
which has reduced its debt burden, invests responsibly and operates efficiently. Therefore, it is possible to generate this compelling
return to our shareholders, especially the Brazilian society, represented by the State. This generates economic development throughout
the production chain, generating jobs, income and tax revenues for the country. In this quarter, we have paid out to the federal government,
states and municipalities the equivalent of 1.5 times our net income. Petrobras is distributing the fruits of its value generation to
the Brazilian population”, underlines Petrobras’ CEO, José Mauro Coelho.
According to the CFO, Rodrigo Araujo Alves,
"First quarter results show that we stand firm in our trajectory of transforming Petrobras into a much more solid company that
invests responsibly and is able to create and distribute wealth to our shareholders and to society. In this regard, we approved shareholder
remuneration of R$ 3.72 per common and preferred share. Additionally, in the first quarter alone, we collected a total of R$ 69.9 billion
in taxes and government take, an increase of 95% compared to the first quarter of last year”.
Main achievements:
| § | Recurring EBITDA of US$ 15.1 billion
(+35% vs 4Q21) and free cash flow of US$ 7.9 billion (+6% vs 4Q21). |
| § | Net debt of US$ 40.1 billion (-16%
vs 4Q21), resulting in a Net Debt/EBITDA ratio of 0.8x. |
| § | Recurring net income of US$ 8.4
billion (+96% vs 4Q21). |
| § | Strong cash generation, solid liquidity
and the outlook for sustainable results allowed the Company to approve shareholder remuneration in the amount of R$ 3.72 per outstanding
common and preferred share. |

In 1Q22, net revenue grew 13%
compared to 4Q21, mainly due to the 27% increase in Brent prices, higher volumes of oil sales in the domestic market due to the sale of
the Mataripe refinery (RLAM), which was concluded on November 30, 2021, and the higher volume of oil exports due to the growth in oil
production and the realization of ongoing exports from 4Q21. These effects were partially offset by the lower volume of oil product sales
in the domestic market mainly due to seasonal aspects and the divestment of RLAM, impacting sales of diesel, gasoline and LPG in 1Q22.
There was also a drop in electricity
revenues, given the lower thermoelectric generation due to the improvement in hydrological conditions in 1Q22.
In terms of the breakdown of
revenues in the domestic market, diesel and gasoline continued to be the main products, together accounting for 72% of oil products domestic
sales in 1Q22.

In 1Q22, we kept on diversifying
our global customer base for our oil exports. Búzios remained the main stream in our export basket. Recently added streams, Atapu
and Sepia, have increased their relevance in exports. In 4Q21, we traded the first export of the Sépia stream and in 1Q22 new cargoes
of this stream were traded and new clients were added to our portfolio.
In 1Q22, we had the following distribution
of export destinations:

In 1Q22, cost of goods sold
decreased 5% when compared to 4Q21, mainly reflecting lower natural gas and oil products imports. It is worth noting the decline of LNG
in the breakdown of natural gas purchases, given the reduction of 14 MMm³/day in regasification volumes, which reached 10 MM m3/day in 1Q22, mainly due to
lower demand for gas for thermoelectric plants because of the improvement in hydrological conditions.
Production costs increased
19% in 1Q22, mainly due to production growth and higher government take, which followed Brent prices.
Power generation costs fell
in 1Q22 compared with 4Q21, due to the reduction in dispatch from the Company's own thermal plants.

In 1Q22, operating expenses were US$ 2.1 billion
in comparison with US$ 257 million in 4Q21. This variation was mainly because of the gains of US$ 1.5 billion, in 4Q21, with the sale
of the Mataripe Refinery (RLAM) and with the contingent portion of the sale of the Carcará asset (currently the Bacalhau field),
partially offset by the gain of US$ 0.3 billion with the sale of the Alagoas Cluster in 1Q22.
Selling and general and administrative expenses
remained at a similar level to 4Q21.
In 1Q22, there was a reduction in exploration
costs, mainly due to lower expenses with geology and geophysics and with projects without economic viability.
The increase in R&D costs was mainly due
to the increase in Brent prices, given that the provision for R&D projects considers a percentage of gross production revenues in
certain fields.
In 4Q21, there was an impairment reversal of
US$ 0.3 billion, mainly due to the inclusion of the 2nd unit of RNEST in the 2022-26 Strategic Plan, which also contributed
to the increase in operating expenses in 1Q22.
Adjusted EBITDA
In 1Q22, Adjusted EBITDA rose 33% to US$ 15
billion mainly due to the increase in Brent prices in the period, higher oil exports, higher diesel margins and lower LNG imports, partially
offset by lower sales volumes of oil products.

The financial result was positive by US$ 596
million in 1Q22, compared to a negative result of US$ 2.5 billion in 4Q21, mainly reflecting the appreciation of the BRL against the USD
(appreciation of 15% in 1Q22 against a depreciation of 3% in 4Q21).
We ended 1Q22 with a currency exposure of US$
17 billion compared to US$ 17.6 billion in 4Q21. It is worth noting that in 1Q21, the currency exposure was US$ 34.8 billion, causing
higher volatility in financial results.
Net profit (loss) attributable to Petrobras
shareholders
Net income in 1Q22 was
US$ 8.6 billion, compared to US$ 5.6 billion in 4Q21. This increase was mainly due to higher Brent prices in the period, coupled with
higher margins on diesel, higher oil exports, lower costs with LNG imports, foreign exchange gains due to the appreciation of the BRL
against the USD, and gains from equity-accounted investments. On the other hand, in 1Q22 there were lower gains from the disposal of assets
(-US$ 1.2 billion) and from the reversal of impairment (-US$ 0.3 billion) compared to 4Q21. With higher pre-tax income, there was a higher
income tax and social contribution expense (+ US$ 2.3 billion) in 1Q22 compared with 4Q21.
Recurring net income
attributable to Petrobras shareholders and recurring Adjusted EBITDA
In 1Q22, net income was benefited by non-recurring
items in the total amount of US$ 0.4 billion. Net income in 1Q22 would have been US$ 8.4 billion without the non-recurring items. Adjusted
EBITDA was basically unaffected by non-recurring items.

In 1Q22, capex totaled US$ 1.8 billion, out
of which more than 53% capex was related to growth.
Growth capex are those with the primary objective
of increasing the capacity of existing assets, deploying new production, offloading, and storage assets, increasing asset efficiency or
profitability, and deploying essential infrastructure to enable other growth projects. It includes acquisitions of assets/companies and
remaining investments in systems that started up as of 2020 and exploratory investments.
Sustaining capex, on the other hand, has the
main objective of maintaining the operation of existing assets. It does not aim at increasing the capacity of the facilities. It includes
investments in safety and reliability of facilities, replacement well projects, complementary development, remaining investments in systems
that started up before 2020, scheduled stoppages and revitalizations (without new systems), 4D seismic, health, environment, and safety
(HSE) projects, subsea line exchanges, operational infrastructure and information technology (IT).
In 1Q22, capex in the Exploration & Production
segment totaled US$ 1.4 billion, with approximately 61% related to growth. Investments were mainly concentrated on: (i) the development
of ultra-deepwater production in the Santos Basin pre-salt (US$ 0.5 billion); (ii) development of new deepwater projects (US$ 0.2 billion);
and (iii) exploratory investments in the pre-salt and post-salt (US$ 0.1 billion).
In the Refining, Transportation and Marketing
segment, capex totaled US$ 0.3 billion in 1Q22, of which approximately 16% was related to growth. In Gas & Power, capex totaled US$
0.1 billion in 1Q22, with approximately 64% related to growth.
The following table presents the main information about the new oil and
gas production systems, already contracted.

2 In March 2022, Petrobras has signed the
contract with the partner CNOOC Petroleum Brasil Ltda. (CPBL) for the assignment of 5% of its interest in the Production Sharing Contract
of the Transfer of Rights Surplus for the Buzios field. Petrobras stake will be ajusted after the transaction's approval by the regulatory
agencies.
3 Petrobras stake updated after the approval
of the Production Individualization Agreement (AIP) of the Mero accumulation. As the compensation relative to the non-contracted area
expenses will be paid in oil to the consortium, the work interest (WI) of the CAPEX reported will not change.

Portfolio management
In 1Q22, cash inflows from divestments totaled
US$ 1.8 billion, including US$950 million deferred payment from the sale of the Bacalhau field (formerly Carcará area) in February
2022. From January 1, 2022, to May 05, 2022, we concluded the sale of the Alagoas Cluster and exploratory blocks in Parana Basin. Additionally,
we signed the contracts for the sale of the Potiguar Cluster, the Norte Capixaba Cluster, the Albacora East field and Deten Química.
Finnaly, it is worth mentioning that in April 2022, we received a deferred payment for the sale of 90% of NTS, in the amount of US$ 1
billion.

As of March 31, 2022, cash and cash equivalents
totaled US$ 17.2 billion and adjusted cash and cash equivalents totaled US$ 18.5 billion.
In 1Q22, cash generated from operating activities
reached US$ 10.3 billion. The company's operating cash generation was impacted by the partial prepayment of a pension liability - the
Pre-70 Term of Financial Commitment (TFC Pre-70) and Pension Difference Term of Financial Commitment (TCF Pension Difference), celebrated
with the Fundação Petrobras de Seguridade Social (Petros), in the amount of US$ 1.3 billion.
Positive free cash flow totaled US$ 7.9 billion.
This level of cash generation, together with the inflow from divestments of US$ 1.8 billion, were used to: (a) prepay debt and amortize
principal and interest due in the period (US$ 2.1 billion), (b) amortize lease liabilities (US$ 1.3 billion), and (c) fund capex of US$
2.4 billion (including the payment of the signature bonus of Sépia and Atapu, in the amount of US$ 0.8 billion).
In 1Q22, liability management was carried out
aiming at improving the debt profile and matching maturities of long-term investments. The company settled several loans and financial
debt, in the amount of US$ 2.1 billion, notably the repurchase and redemption of US$ 0.7 billion of securities in the international capital
market.
The maintenance of gross debt at the level
established in our 2022-26 Strategic Plan, the high level of cash generation, and solid liquidity allowed the company to approve shareholder
remuneration in the amount of R$ 3.72 per outstanding common and preferred share.
* Includes short-term government bonds and time deposits and cash and cash equivalents
of companies classified as held for sale.
** Free cash flow (FCF) is in accordance with the Shareholder Remuneration Policy,
which is the result of the equation: FCF = net cash provided by operating activities less acquisitions of PP&E and intangible assets.
Debt
As of March 31, 2022, gross debt reached US$
58.6 billion, in line with the 4Q21 position, of US$58.7, and 17.5% lower than March 31, 2021, mainly due to debt prepayments and amortizations.
Average maturity shifted from 13.4 years on
December 31, 2021, to 13.2 years on March 31, 2022.
The gross debt/EBITDA ratio decreased from
1.35x on December 31, 2021, to 1.18x on March 31, 2022.
Net debt decreased by 15.9% to US$ 40.1 billion.
The net debt/Adjusted EBITDA ratio decreased significantly from 1.09x on December 31, 2021, to 0.81x on March 31, 2022.

In 1Q22, E&P gross profit was US$ 12.0
billion, an increase of 30% when compared to 4Q21. This increase was due to higher Brent prices and higher production, partially offset
by higher government participation. Operating profit was 22% higher than in 4Q21, as a consequence of the higher gross profit.
Lifting cost for 1Q22, without government take
and leasing, was US$ 5.22/boe, an increase of 6% when compared to US$ 4.91/boe in 1Q21. The increase is explained by the appreciation
of the BRL and higher expenses with integrity, mainly with platforms maintenance (activities that were held off during the COVID-19 pandemic
and which could be carried out once the scenario improved. These actions aim to ensure systems reliability). These effects were partially
offset by the active management of the portfolio with the divestments in onshore fields and the ramp-up of FPSO Carioca.
In 1Q22, Petrobras recorded a 1% increase in
lifting cost, without government take and leasing, when compared to 4Q21, remaining practically stable versus the previous quarter.
In the pre-salt, the lifting cost remained
stable compared to 4Q21.
In the post-salt, the increase of 5% in the
lifting cost, when compared to 4Q21, was mainly due to the effect of the appreciation of the BRL.
In onshore and shallow water assets, there
was an increase in the lifting cost in 1Q22, mainly due to higher expenses with wells intervention, also associated with the effect of
the BRL appreciation and some production decline. These effects were partially offset by the divestments in Bahia and Sergipe.
The higher expenses with government take in
dollars are explained by higher Brent prices.

In 1Q22, gross profit for the Refining, Transportation
and Marketing (RTM) segment, was US$ 3.1 billion, US$ 866 million above 4Q21, mainly due to the higher positive effect of inventory turnover
between quarters (US$ 2 billion in 1Q22 vs. US$ 1.3 billion in 4Q21). Excluding this effect, gross profit would have been US$ 1.1 billion
in 1Q22 and US$ 966 million in 4Q21.
In 1Q22, there was a higher margin of oil products
in the domestic market, mainly diesel, due to the increase of international margins. There were lower sales volumes in the domestic market
for gasoline, diesel and LPG due to the typical seasonality of these oil products and the conclusion of the sale of the Mataripe Refinery
(RLAM), on November 30 , 2021, whose capacity represented approximately 13% of the total capacity of Petrobras Refining facilities.
In 1Q22, the operating result remained stable
when compared with 4Q21. The increase in gross profit was offset by the equity gain from the sale of the Mataripe Refinery (RLAM) and
by the reversal of impairment related to the 2nd train of RNEST, events that took place in 4Q21.
In 1Q22, the refining cost per barrel in USD
was slightly higher than in 4Q21, mainly due to the effect of the appreciation of the BRL in the period, which offset the reduction in
costs in reais. There was also an effect of lower throughput in 1Q22, due to the lower number of days in this quarter. With the
sale of RLAM, this was the first quarter without the full contribution of this refinery in our refining facilities.

In 1Q22, in the Gas and Power segment, there
was an increase in gross profit (+US$ 572 million) when compared to 4Q21, due to the higher average natural gas sales prices, due to the
increase in Brent prices and new sales contracts for the non-thermoelectric segment. Additionally, with the recovery of hydroelectric
reservoir levels, there was a reduction in demand for natural gas for thermoelectric generation, which led to a lower volume of regasified
LNG and, consequently, to a reduction in the average cost of purchased gas.
Despite the efforts made to rebalance the portfolios
and the increase of 47.5% in operational result in 1Q22, we recorded an operating loss of US$ 409 million. The increase in selling expenses,
mainly driven by the yearly adjustment of natural gas transport prices, also contributed to this result.
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is an indicator calculated as the net
income for the period plus taxes on profit, net financial result, depreciation and amortization. Petrobras announces EBITDA, as authorized
by CVM Instruction 527 of October 2012.
In order to reflect the management view regarding
the formation of the company's current business results, EBITDA is also presented adjusted (Adjusted EBITDA) as a result of: results in
equity-accounted investments; impairment, reclassification of comprehensive income (loss) due to the disposal of equity-accounted investments,
results with co-participation agreement in production fields and gains/losses on disposal/write-offs of assets.
Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting the sum of the last
twelve months (Last Twelve Months), also represents an alternative to the company's operating cash generation. This measure is used to
calculate the Gross Debt and Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA metric, helping to evaluate the company's leverage and liquidity.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not provided for
in International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and should not serve as a basis for comparison with those disclosed by other companies
and should not be considered as a substitute for any other measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. These measures should be considered
in conjunction with other measures and indicators for a better understanding of the company's performance and financial condition.

Glossary
ACL - Ambiente de Contratação
Livre (Free contracting market) in the electricity system.
ACR - Ambiente de Contratação
Regulada (Regulated contracting market) in the electricity system.
Adjusted cash and cash equivalents - Sum of
cash and cash equivalents, government bonds and time deposits from highly rated financial institutions abroad with maturities of more
than 3 months from the date of acquisition, considering the expected realization of those financial investments in the short-term. This
measure is not defined under the International Financial Reporting Standards – IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or
as a substitute for cash and cash equivalents computed in accordance with IFRS. It may not be comparable to adjusted cash and cash equivalents
of other companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental measure to assess our liquidity and supports leverage
management.
Adjusted EBITDA – EBITDA plus results
in equity-accounted investments; impairment, reclassification of comprehensive income (loss) due to the disposal of equity-accounted
investments, results with co-participation agreement in production fields and gains/losses on disposal/write-offs of assets.
Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined by IFRS and it is possible that it may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other
companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental measure to assess our profitability. Adjusted EBITDA shall
be considered in conjunction with other metrics for a better understanding on our performance.
Adjusted EBITDA margin - Adjusted EBITDA divided
by sales revenues.
Basic and diluted earnings (losses) per share
- Calculated based on the weighted average number of shares.
Consolidated Structured Entities –
Entities that have been designated so that voting rights or the like are not the determining factor in deciding who controls the entity.
Petrobras has no equity interest in certain structured entities that are consolidated in the Company's financial statements, but control
is determined by the power it has over its relevant operating activities. As there is no equity interest, the income from certain consolidated
structured entities is attributable to non-controlling shareholders in the income statement, and disregarding the profit or loss attributable
to Petrobras shareholders.
CTA – Cumulative translation adjustment
– The cumulative amount of exchange variation arising on translation of foreign operations that is recognized in Shareholders’
Equity and will be transferred to profit or loss on the disposal of the investment.
Effect of average cost in the Cost of Sales
– In view of the average inventory term of 60 days, the crude oil and oil products international prices movement, as well as foreign
exchange effect over imports, production taxes and other factors that impact costs, do not entirely influence the cost of sales in the
current period, having their total effects only in the following period.
Free cash flow - Net cash provided by operating
activities less acquisition of PP&E and intangibles assets (except for signature bonus) and investments in investees. Free cash flow
is not defined under the IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash and cash equivalents calculated in
accordance with IFRS. It may not be comparable to free cash flow of other companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate
supplemental measure to assess our liquidity and supports leverage management.
Investments – Capital expenditures
based on the cost assumptions and financial methodology adopted in our Business and Management Plan, which include acquisition of PP&E,
including expenses with leasing, intangibles assets, investment in investees and other items that do not necessarily qualify as cash flows
used in investing activities, primarily geological and geophysical expenses, pre-operating charges, purchase |
|
of property, plant and equipment on credit and
borrowing costs directly attributable to works in progress.
Leverage – Ratio between the Net Debt
and the sum of Net Debt and Shareholders’ Equity. Leverage is not a measure defined in the IFRS and it is possible that it may not
be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental measure
to assess our liquidity.
Lifting Cost - Crude oil and natural gas lifting
cost indicator, which considers expenditures occurred in the period.
LTM Adjusted EBITDA - Sum of the last 12 months
(Last Twelve Months) of Adjusted EBITDA. This metric is not foreseen in the international accounting standards - IFRS and it is possible
that it is not comparable with similar indexes reported by other companies, however Management believes that it is supplementary information
to assess liquidity and helps manage leverage. Adjusted EBITDA should be considered in conjunction with other metrics to better understand
the Company's liquidity.
OCF - Net Cash provided by (used in) operating
activities (operating cash flow)
Net Debt – Gross debt less adjusted
