Oil prices up, energy shares down Why do energy stocks appear to underperform relative

Oil prices up, energy shares down Why do energy stocks appear to underperform relative to market fundamentals? • Despite oil prices rising 25%, upstream stocks underperformed between January 2017 and March 2018. • Global and US energy indices underperformed oil prices by 14– 36%, especially when there was strong upward momentum in equity markets. • Even companies in some of the most promising resources and markets—for instance, the Permian ―reported an average shareholder return of -14%. The March 2018 stock price of 18 upstream companies, with a combined market capitalization of $110 billion, is even below early 2016 levels when oil dropped to $26/bbl.

Portfolios of O&G companies are fast-evolving New resources like shales, the changed oil price environment, and the need for both operational excellence and financial performance have reset the entire landscape Past Orientation • High prices, scarce resources • Find large reserves Emerging Orientation Assets/Projects Landscape 17, 163 Assets 9, 380 Projects 419 Basins • Play price and investment cycles • Evaluate each opportunity on its own merit • Low prices, plentiful resources • Deliver high and sustainable cash flows • Balance project and cash flow cycles 700 K+ US Wells 1, 862 Companies 6 Resources • Evaluate all opportunities in the context of the portfolio Sources: Rystad Energy, Marakon, Deloitte analysis Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

What explains the disconnect? Myriad of portfolio narratives, a narrow view on what constitutes a “good” portfolio, and the lack of a common tool to judge its effectiveness • Before the shale boom, most companies and investors used traditional metrics such as RRR, F&D costs per boe, and ROCE for reporting and benchmarking performance. • These “traditional” metrics were often not connected – companies often chose whichever metric looked best at any particular time. • The emergence of shale plays has complicated this problem further by adding multiple breakeven nomenclatures and leading to selective disclosures from companies. Our study of top IOCs, E&Ps, and NOCs reveals a breakeven gap of $19– 33/bbl between their best assets and their overall portfolio (Source: Deloitte analysis).

Tool 1: The UDI trend Our yearly UDI analysis reveals significant changes in the portfolios of E&Ps, especially over the past few years where there is a visible change in the pace and scale of restructuring Divergent pathways Production-weighted UDI trend of company groups Shales has been an essential “add-in” to IOCs’ continued strategy of diversification North American E&Ps are prioritizing shales over other resources, explaining their increasing concentration Portfolios of NOCs and global E&Ps, on the other hand, haven’t changed significantly over the past 5 years Source: Rystad Energy, Deloitte analysis Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

Tool 2: Results from the 3 S model Our 3 S analysis suggests that 62– 80% of the industry’s portfolios have not yet adjusted sufficiently to navigate the uncertain future Portfolio assessment results (2018– 2022) Sources: Rystad Energy and Deloitte analysis Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

The 3 S: Shielded for $40/bbl environment The majority of companies may struggle to reduce their capex without impacting their production—the problem of linearity. Average production and capex change, 2018– 22 (Shield: $40/bbl oil price scenario) Best About 5% of the companies may be able to grow both their production and capex Majority of the E&Ps still have a linear relationship between their capex and production, which is not ideal in a downturn About 15% of the industry could face a double whammy of higher pre-productive capital commitments and falling production Source: Deloitte analysis Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

The 3 S: Sustainable at $55/boe About 70 percent of the companies (entire portfolio) could face challenges in sustaining their current production levels, funding new projects, and maintaining their payouts Breakeven analysis, producing vs non-producing assets (2018) It’s about both good projects across the lifecycle and a high proportion of good projects Best Share of low profitability projects Source: Deloitte analysis Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

The 3 S: Readiness to Scale up at $65/bbl Companies will likely report higher

The 3 S: Readiness to Scale up at $65/bbl Companies will likely report higher cash flows in 2018 due to the recent surge in prices. But, sustaining and extending these gains in a timely manner would be a challenge for many. Total incremental free cash flows and 2018 growth ($65/bbl oil price scenario) Majority of the companies will likely realize one-time gains in 2018, but sustaining these gains would be a challenge later 28% companies will likely see both lower magnitude and delayed recovery of FCF gains Best A handful of companies will likely see higher gains per boe but with a lag of 2 -3 years from the price recovery Source: Deloitte analysis Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

The power of two tools: Characteristics of a future-ready portfolio The top 30 portfolios

The power of two tools: Characteristics of a future-ready portfolio The top 30 portfolios in the 3 S model, when seen through the lens of the UDI, displayed five distinct traits—excellence is clearly not happening by accident! Characteristics of future-ready portfolios Patterns amid chaos: Following a consistent strategy and actively managing portfolio Through a different lens: Manage resources by focusing on investment cycles Not two sides of the same coin: Understanding that strong financials need not necessarily mean a futureready portfolio Copyright © 2018 Deloitte Development LLC.

The “how” before the “where”: Prioritizing operational excellence over location A balanced mix: Exposure to gas is important but not central yet Diversification and portfolio trends in upstream oil and gas 13
