THE FIRST YEAR OF THE IMPLEMENTATION OF A NEW STRATEGY
I am pleased to share the results of a year of hard work, with the implementation of a new strategy for Petrobras, based on a transformational agenda supported by five pillars: maximization of the return on capital employed, reduction in the cost of capital, relentless search for low costs, meritocracy and respect for people and the environment and focus on the safety of operations.
The confidence in the quality of the strategy and in its efficient implementation was widely corroborated by the capital markets. Petrobras’ market capitalization increased by 25%, from US$ 80.9 billion at the end of 2018 to US$ 101.1 billion in December 2019, outperforming the major oil companies in the world.
In less than twelve months - from April 2019 to February 2020 - two secondary public offers for the distribution of Petrobras’ common shares owned by public banks were successfully carried out, totaling almost R$ 30 billion.
Two important aspects should be noted in the latter transaction, of R$ 22 billion: (a) it was carried out amidst a situation of high volatility in stock and oil prices, caused by the shock of the coronavirus on the global economy, and (b) 55,000 individual Brazilian investors bought our shares, which was remarkable for the development of the local capital market.
After years of stagnation, our oil and gas production surpassed the mark of 3 million barrels per day. The average cash lifting cost reached US$ 6.50 per boe in 4Q19, a reduction of US$ 3.0 in relation to the beginning of 2018. Pre-salt operations, with a lifting cost of approximately US$ 3.0 per boe1, played a relevant role in the reduction of the total average cost.
In 2019, our activities generated a net income of US$ 9.3 billion, despite the drop in average oil prices from US $ 71 per barrel in 2018 to US$ 64. We have paid to the governments royalties, taxes and signing bonuses in the total amount of R$ 246 billion, a historical record, which consolidates the company's position as the largest contributor in Brazil.
To support the focus on efficiency and value generation, we created two new executive directorships: (a) Institutional Relations, which is essential in a company such as Petrobras, given our size and level of interactions with governments and public bodies, and (b) Digital Transformation and Innovation.
In a rapidly changing world, digital transformation and the use of artificial intelligence are crucial for Petrobras' future. We are modernizing the information technology infrastructure, with a spike in high performance computing capacity (HPC), which, in 2019, was 3 times 2018’s capacity (9 PFLOPs) and in the end of 2020 will reach 10 times (30 PFLOPs)2. The increase in HPC capacity is necessary to enable the application of more sophisticated algorithms that will provide us with a substantially greater amount of information in exploration and in oil reservoirs
Portfolio management has resulted in divestments in which we are not natural owners in the amount of US$ 16.3 billion.
We were awarded the best Cross-Border M&A Deal of 2019 by Latin Finance magazine for TAG’s sale transaction, also the largest in Brazil last year.
BR Distribuidora's follow-on transaction was the first privatization of a state-owned company via capital markets in the history of Brazil, carried out in a transparent manner and contributing to the development of the capital markets, which is extremely relevant to economic development. Instead of a company with a single owner, the company emerged with diluted capital among thousands of shareholders, democratizing capitalism.
Divestments of mature fields, in addition to the positive effects for Petrobras due to the asymmetry of perceived value, have been contributing to the construction of a new oil industry in Brazil, with small and middle-sized producers, which invests in the recovery of fields with low productivity and high lifting costs, adding value to regional economies.
The maximization of the return on capital employed also includes discipline in its allocation and investments to create conditions to grow productivity.
Given the contracted credit lines available for immediate use, “revolving credit facilities” totaling US$ 9 billion, we are reducing the minimum cash target to US$ 5.5 billion. The retention of an excessive amount of cash acted as a drag on returns on capital employed.
We have raised the bar for the selection of projects, which will be assessed individually when competing for scarce capital. The selectivity in the allocation of capital was put to the test in the 3 auctions held by the ANP in October and November, when 45 blocks were auctioned off. The company submitted proposals for only five, winning four, C-M-477, Búzios, Itapu and Aram.
We managed to shorten the ramp-up period of the platforms to 9 months on average and when transporting P-70 from China to Rio de Janeiro, we used a dry-tow ship, which reduced travel time from 100 to 45 days. With the use of artificial intelligence, we are developing projects that have the potential to revolutionize oil exploration and project development, substantially reducing the probability of drilling dry wells and the period between discovery and first oil. Such projects will very positively influence the return on capital employed in a not-so-distant future.
Petrobras' excellence in innovation was recognized at the Offshore Technology Conference (OTC) Brazil 2019, by the Distinguished Achievement Award for the extended well test of the Libra project. For the 4th time since 1991, our competence was again recognized by the OTC 2020 Houston through the Distinguished Achievement Award for Companies, the main award in the global oil and gas industry, for the set of innovations developed to enable the production of the Búzios field.

Divestments were paramount to help us focus on the assets in which we are the natural owners, allowing for total investment of US$ 27.4 billion, US$ 16.7 billion of which in bonus for the acquisition of the exploration and production rights in the blocks already mentioned. Buzios is very special because it is the largest offshore field discovered worldwide, a true world-class asset with huge reserves, low risk for Petrobras and lifting cost below US$ 4 per barrel.
It is not a matter of discussing whether Petrobras will be bigger or smaller in the future. Our goal is to be much better in the future, the best in value generation in the world. There is no downsizing, we are seeking smartsizing.
As well as enabling the financing of investments with expected high returns, divestments and the strong operational cash generation, in the amount of US$ 25.6 billion, allowed a US$ 24 billion debt reduction. In addition, the efficient liability management exchanged short and high-cost debt for long and lower-cost debt.
The combination of debt reduction and liability management allowed savings of US$ 1.2 billion in interest payments, with a reduction in the average cost of debt to 5.9% per year and an extension of its average tenor to 10.8 years.
We were very pleased to receive the Latin Finance award for the best Corporate Liability Management Program of 2019.
The three main credit risk agencies improved our stand-alone credit rating, which encourages us to continue our efforts to regain the investment-grade rating.
Another focus of our efforts has been the elimination of contingencies and off-balance liabilities. We managed to reduce litigation by R$ 35.5 billion, even after the effects of the monetary adjustments.
Owing to poor management over several years, our employees’ pension fund, Petros, suffered heavy losses, putting at risk the payment of pensions to thousands of people. Greenfield operation investigates the practice of illegal acts in several pension funds, including Petros.
We are working relentlessly to solve Petros' challenges. The pension plan for the employees who joined Petrobras before 2002 presents growing deficits and the attempts to solve this problem in the past have been unsuccessful. We are approving a much more effective equalization plan, which will reduce the impact on employees, and we are proposing a new defined contribution plan with a long-term solution.
Initiatives were launched with a focus on meritocracy, comprising incentives aligned with the interests of shareholders and helping to form a culture of value in the company.
Our Board of Directors approved an effective variable compensation plan with goals based on value generation. Bonuses relative to 2019 will be distributed after the General Shareholders' Meeting. At the same time, an EVA (economic value added) program will be phased in throughout 2020.
Among several efforts to reduce costs, we launched a family of voluntary dismissal programs, with the adhesion up to the end of 2019 of 3,294 employees, of which 995 have already left Petrobras.
Slow processes are an important source of high costs and low productivity. We are addressing this issue by delegating powers to managers, while, of course, keeping high standards of corporate governance and compliance. At the same time, the use of digital transformation begins to generate positive effects in corporate areas, such as the legal department, where we were able to eliminate the issuance of 20,000 documents per year in a first wave, which saves a significant number of man-hours and results in efficiency gains.
We are preparing the future of Petrobras, which relies on people and on the quality of its human capital stock. One of our most relevant tasks is the identification of young talents, promoting them to management positions and preparing them to be the future leaders of the company.
The training program for employees was reformulated to meet long-term strategic demands, with a more careful selection of employees to be trained. At the same time, we eliminate waste, seeking to do much more with less. In addition to the mandatory disciplines required by regulation, we are giving emphasis, for example, on leadership, finance, geosciences, artificial intelligence and mathematical methods.
Likewise, R&D activities in our research center (CENPES), previously focused on meeting regulatory requirements, were redesigned for alignment with the Company’s strategy.
In the social area, our programs are prioritizing investment in the early childhood, for children from 0 to 6 years old, where the social return rate is high, as it creates a powerful channel of economic and social mobility for those born in poor families. In addition, environment, science and sport for children and youth are priorities
Our efforts were recognized and in 2019 we reached a score of 46.6% on the Corporate Human Rights Benchmark, a result higher than that obtained in 2018, of 17.6%, and also than the average of 29% for companies in the mining and oil sectors.
Petrobras is strongly committed to sustainability. We are a member of the Oil and Gas Climate Initiative (OGCI) and we are prioritizing the decarbonization of our operations, with goals and initiatives to reduce CO2 and methane emissions and to increase carbon capture. The growth in water reuse is also an important concern, as our percentage is still low.
Our E&P operations discharged 17.3 kg of carbon equivalent per barrel of oil, which puts us in second place among the major oil companies in the world, only behind Equinor.
We continue to invest in research for the development of more environmental friendly fuels and in the acquisition of skills so that in the future we can enter the renewable business in a position to win.
Thanks to the quality of our oil, Petrobras is producing bunker oil with the low sulfur content of 0.5% required by the standards of the International Maritime Organization, IMO 2020. This new product helped to increase the utilization factor of our refineries to more than 80% in January, 2020.
6
Safety is our top priority and, in 2019, we reached the lowest total recordable injuries per million men-hour frequency rate (TRI) level. There were 0.76 accidents / million man-hours, a decrease of 24.7% in relation to 2018, establishing a new landmark for the global oil industry.
Despite this achievement, we will not stop there. We continue to pursue the goal of zero fatalities, and it is with deep regret that we recorded two fatalities in 2019.
We are in a long-horizon industry, where we have the challenge of mitigating the negative effects of the many mistakes made in the past, taking care of the short term and preparing for the coming decades.
Advances have been made, but we are still far from our goals. Petrobras remains one of the most indebted oil company in the world, with gross debt of US$ 87.1 billion, leverage above the oil industry standards and high costs. In addition, the return on capital employed still remains below the cost of capital.
Thus, despite the ongoing strategic initiatives, production records and the very favorable accounting figures we are disclosing today, we cannot relax. There are many challenges ahead of us and, in order to overcome them, we need to continue with our efforts and to count on the talents of our professionals, the true jewel in Petrobras' crown.
Finally, I would like to acknowledge and thank the important role played by our Board of Directors, which has been very supportive throughout this journey.

Net revenues reduced 9.5% in 2019 - despite higher volumes of oil and oil products exports and the increase in natural gas revenues, mainly due to the fall of 9.5% in Brent prices and to lower volumes of oil product sales, at lower prices, chiefly gasoline and naphtha. There was also a decrease in revenues by international units, as a result of divestments in the United States (E&P assets and Pasadena refinery) and of the distribution company in Paraguay. It is important to highlight that, although Brent prices have dropped significantly, the proportional impact in the company’s results was mitigated by the smaller spread of our oil and fuel oil to Brent, mainly due to IMO 2020.
In 4Q19, we exported higher volumes of oil and fuel oil with low sulphur content, at higher Brent prices, also reflecting the benefits of IMO 2020, which led to an appreciation of those products. In the domestic market, lower volumes of diesel, due to market share losses and seasonality, negatively impacted the results. Electricity and naphtha revenues were up because of higher volumes and prices.
The record oil production of 3,025 million barrels of oil equivalent per day (MMboed) in 4Q19 was not totally translated into revenues as 7.5 million barrels of oil were, at the quarter’s end, remained as inventories, being registered as ongoing exports.
In terms of revenues breakdown, diesel remains the most relevant product, accounting for 48% of domestic sales, followed by gasoline, which represents 22% of sales, both in line with the previous quarter.

In 2019, the 12% reduction in the cost of goods sold, when compared to 2018, outpaced the 9.5% drop in Brent prices, due to (a) lower production costs, (b) reduction in costs with operations abroad, reflecting divestments of several assets, and (c) lower electricity generation, with lower prices. On the other hand, costs with oil imports increased due to higher volumes.
Cost of goods sold totaled US$ 10.9 billion in 4Q19, an 8% reduction compared to 3Q19 even with the increase in Brent prices. This drop is evidenced by the lower lifting cost in the quarter, which was reduced by 15%, to US$ 8.22/boe, as a result of the increase of pre-salt in the production mix. In addition, inventory built at lower prices in the previous quarter was realized in 4Q19, with a positive effect of US$ 0.5 billion, and there was a lower share of imported oil in the throughput.

Operating expenses reduced significantly in 2019 due to the gains with divestments in the amount of US$ 6.7 billion, mainly related to TAG and E&P assets. On the other hand there were higher impairment charges, mainly in 4Q19, and higher selling expenses, due to the payment of tariffs for the use of TAG gas pipelines of approximately US$ 760 million and higher logistic costs for exports associated with the stronger freight market and increase in export volumes.
Selling, general and administrative expenses totaled US$ 1.9 billion in 4Q19, an increase of 6.9% over 3Q19, mainly due to the higher logistics expenses associated with the stronger freight market and the increase in exports volumes.
Exploration costs for oil and gas in 4Q19 also increased to US$ 455 million due to higher expenses with non-commercial wells and to the acquisition of regional seismic data to support the assessment of new areas. Tax expenses increased due to the adhesion to State Amnesties programs.
Impairment expenses, usually concentrated in the last quarter, increased 265.9% mainly as a consequence of the revision of assumptions on the new Strategic Plan, as well as the postponement of the investments in the 2nd train of RNEST and the cancellation of the fertilizer unit (UFN III). On February 10th, we launched a new sales process for UFN III.
On the other hand, other expenses reduced mainly due to gains in the asset sales and lower contingencies.
The following is a breakdown of impairments recognized in the quarter:

In 4Q19, the assets linked to the E&P segment showed losses as a result of the significant reduction in the prices of oil and natural gas projected for the 2020-2024 horizon and the consequent increase in the provision for the dismantling of areas. The losses are largely linked to the Papa-Terra field, Uruguá cluster (Uruguá and Tambaú fields) and CVIT cluster (Golfinho and Canapú fields).
In relation to RNEST, the forecast for the beginning of operations of the second train has been pushed back for more than 3 years, affecting the present value of the asset.
UFN III had a 100% impairment charge due to the absence of the company's intention to complete the project and the lack of firm offers to buy the asset. In February, 2020 we launched a new sales process of this asset.
However, there were several impairment reversals especially for the Transpetro ships, the E&P fields held for sale (Frade and Lagoa Parda cluster fiels), for which the amounts to be received exceed book values, and the gas processing plant at Comperj, which will use the utilities, becoming a service provider and thus having cash inflows.
2019 Adjusted EBITDA reached US$ 32.7 billion, 3.8% higher than 2018 due to the reduction in production costs (US$ 2.5 billion) and lower contingencies (US$ 763 million) and the adoption of IFRS16 (US$ 4.4 billion). This positive result was partially offset by the sharp reduction in Brent prices and higher abandonment (US$ 776 million) and selling expenses (US$ 649 million), besides the reduction of margins for oil products.
In 4Q19, Adjusted EBITDA reached US$ 8.9 billion, an increase of 8% in relation to 3Q19, reflecting the improvement in operating performance and margins due to: (i) lower production costs (ii) price improvement of our oil and fuel oil in relation to Brent and (iii) improvement in Brent prices. This result was offset by lower margins for diesel, gasoline and LPG, higher exploration costs and higher tax expenses due to the adhesion to State Amnesties programs.
12
*
The increase in Adjusted Ebitda/boe in 4Q19, relative to 3Q19, reflects the good production performance, with the increase of pre-salt in the production mix, with lower lifting costs, due to the ramp-up of new systems in the Lula and Búzios fields.
On a long-term view, we observed a significant increase, mainly reflecting the good performance and greater cost efficiency of the pre-salt, which represented 59% of oil production in Brazil in 2019.
The increase in Adjusted EBITDA/bbl in Refining in 4Q19 reflects higher refining margins due to the IMO 2020. In addition, there was a positive inventory turnover effect in the quarter, due to the quarterly increase in oil prices.7

In 2019 we were very active in liability management, strongly accessing the international capital markets, with the repurchase of US$ 10 billion in debt securities. This movement, essential for the continuous debt reduction, resulted in a US$ 860 million premium paid to bondholders. Lease expenses also increased substantially due to the introduction of IFRS16 in 2019. This big debt reduction effort resulted in a 18% decrease of interest on finance debt, from US$ 5.9 billion in 2018 to US$ 4.8 billion in 2019.
In 4Q19, financial expenses improved 41.5% as a consequence of the lower level of bond repurchases in the period. Interest on finance debt continued to decrease as a result of the continuous debt reduction.

Net income attributable to Petrobras’ shareholders
Net income in 2019 reached US$ 10.2 billion, a 41.5% increase compared to 2018, mainly as a result of capital gains on divestments (mainly TAG, BR Distribuidora and E&P assets), partially offset by higher financial expenses associated with liability management, higher impairments and lower Brent prices.
In 4Q19, net income decreased 13.5% to US$ 2 billion, mainly due to the capital gain of US$ 2.4 billion with the sale of BR Distribuidora in 3Q19 and higher impairments. On the other hand, there were improvement of oil margins, lower financial expenses and capital gains on the sale of E&P assets.
Recurring net income attributable to Petrobras’ shareholders and recurring adjusted EBITDA
In 2019, net income and adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of non-recurring items were US$ 9.3 billion and US$ 34.1 billion, respectively.
In 4Q19, net income and adjusted EBITDA excluding the impact of non-recurring items were US$ 3.2 billion and US$ 9.0 billion, respectively. On net income, non-recurring items totaled US$ 1.8 billion before taxes, especially impairment (US$ 2.2 billion). On Adjusted EBITDA, non-recurring items totaled US$ 173 million.

In Management's judgment, the special items presented above, although related to the Company's business, were highlighted as complementary information for a better understanding and evaluation of the result. Such items do not necessarily occur in all periods and are disclosed when relevant. In 3Q19, the write-off of deferred tax assets and goodwill / negative goodwill on debt securities repurchases were classified as non-recurring items, resulting in reclassifications in the comparative period results.

In 2019, we reached US$ 27.4 billion in investments, US$ 10.7 billion of which without signing bonuses, in line with the target of US$ 10 to 11 billion, disclosed in 2Q19.
Investments in 4Q19 totaled US$ 3.2 billion. Investments in E&P were 24% up on 4Q19 mainly due to higher expenses in the construction of exploratory wells. On the Gas and Power segment, the quarterly increase relates to the execution of stoppages in thermal plants and gas processing units, which had been postponed. Approximately 70% of investments corresponds to capital investments.
Capital investments are those whose main objective is to increase the capacity of existing assets, implement new production, offloading and storage assets, increase efficiency or profitability of the asset and implement essential infrastructure to enable other capital investment projects. They include acquisitions of assets/companies and investments in exploratory activities.
On the other hand, the objective of current investments is to maintain the operation of existing assets (i.e., they do not aim at increasing the capacity of facilities), restoring capacity, in addition to investments in infrastructure whose implementation is not essential to enable another capital investment project.
In 4Q19, investments in Exploration and Production totaled US$ 2.4 billion, with approximately 80% of which in capital investments. Investments were mainly concentrated: (i) in the production development of Santos Basin pre-salt (US$ 1.2 billion); (ii) new projects in mature fields (US$ 0.2 billion); and (iii) exploratory investments in the pre-salt (US$ 0.2 billion).
In 4Q19, US$ 16.7 billion were invested in the acquisition bonuses of the Búzios and Itapu fields (bidding round for the Transfer of Rights surplus), the C-M-477 block (16th bidding round in the Concession Regime), and the Aram block (6th round PSC). The bonus payment was effected on the same date that Petrobras received US$ 9 billion in reimbursement for the revision of the Transfer of Rights contract.
In the Refining segment, investments totaled US$ 0.4 billion in 4Q19, approximately 20% of which were capital investments. Investments in the Gas and Power segment totaled US$ 0.2 billion in 4Q19, approximately 60% of which were capital investments

Improvements in capital allocation are being implemented through portfolio management, with divestments of assets with low returns on capital employed. In 2019, we managed to make significant divestments, with signed and completed transactions contributing to a total of US$16.3 billion, including transactions signed in 2018 and completed in 2019 (with cash inflow of US$ 14.7 billion as detailed below). The main assets divested during the year were TAG gas pipelines, BR Distribuidora and Tartaruga Verde field.
In 4Q19, we concluded the sale of Tartaruga Verde field, Pargo cluster, onshore fields in Rio Grande do Norte and, in January 2020, PO&G BV, which, together with the cash inflows relative to the signing of the Frade field, resulted in a cash inflow of US$ 1.75 billion in the period. We also signed the sale of Liquigás, in the amount of US$ 879 million.

As of December 31st, 2019, cash and cash equivalents totaled US$ 7.4 billion and adjusted cash and cash equivalents totaled US$ 8.3 billion. Our goal is to reach a minimum cash of US$ 5.5 billion.
In 4Q19, inflow of funds from net cash provided by operating activities totaled US$ 7.5 billion, which, alongside cash inflows related to divestments of US$ 1.3 billion and cash and cash equivalents, were used (i) to pay the signature bonus of the Transfer of Rights Surplus auction, in the net amount of US$ 7.0 billion, (ii) to prepay debt and amortize principal and interest due in the period (US$ 6.9 billion) and (iii) as capex in the business areas (US$ 1.8 billion).
Net cash provided by operating activities dropped 10% in the quarter, mainly due to increase in inventories and accounts receivable in the amount of US$ 957 million.

In 2019, the Company settled several loans and financial debt, in the amount of US$ 31.8 billion, with the following highlights : (i) US$ 10 billion relating to repurchase of global bonds previously issued by the Company in the capital market, with net premium paid to bondholders amounting to US$ 860; (ii) pre-payment of banking loans in the domestic and international market totaling US$ 13.5 billion; and (iii) pre-payment of US$ 578 million with respect to financings with the Brazilian Development Bank (Banco Nacional de Desenvolvimento Econômico e Social – BNDES).
In 4Q19 we repaid US$ 6.9 billion in loans and financial debt, the most relevant being the prepayment of a US$ 5 billion of the China Development Bank loan. We raised US$ 2.7 billion and the most noteworthy transaction was the issuance of debentures in Brazil, in the amount of R$ 3 billion (US$ 722 million).

Adjusted EBITDA reached US$ 8.9 billion in 4Q19, 8.1%, above 3Q19. Operating cash flow plus divestments during the year enabled the acquisition of new acreage and debt prepayment. The line showing the balance of the signing bonus includes the payment of US$ 15.3 billion related to Transfer of Rights surplus, offset by the receipt of US$ 8.4 billion related to the revision of the original contract, besides participation in other bids.

Our commitment to deleveraging generated significant results in 2019. The inflow of divestment resources led to a 25% fall in gross debt as of December 31st, 2019, reaching US$ 63 billion without the effects of IFRS16. Including IFRS16, which added US$ 23.9 billion to our debt, we managed to have a gross debt of US$ 87 billion, roughly in line with the amount in December 31, 2018, which did not include leases.
In 4Q19, even with the strong cash outflow due to the payment of the signing bonus of the ToR surplus auction, we still managed to reduce gross debt by 4%.
In addition, liability management helped to increase the average maturity from 9.14 years in December 31st, 2018 and 10.42 years in September 30th, 2019 to 10.80 years in December 31st, 2019, while, in the same periods, leverage reduced from 46% and 45% to 44%. Average interest rate reduced from 6.1% on December 31st, 2018 to 5.9% in September 30th and remained in the same level on December 31st, 2019.
Net debt increased 4.6% due to the use of cash to pay the signing bonus of the ToR surplus auction in December, 2019.
Deleveraging is a priority for Petrobras. Our goal is to reduce the Net Debt/Adjusted LTM EBITDA ratio to 1.5x by 2020, considering the effects of IFRS 16. At December 31, 2019, the Net Debt/Adjusted LTM EBITDA ratio was 2.41x considering the effects of IFRS 16, an increase from 2.40x at September 30th, 2019. Excluding the effects of the IFRS16, the Net Debt/Adjusted LTM EBITDA ratio increased from 1.82x to 1.95x in the same period.

The reduction in gross profit in 2019 is due to lower Brent prices, partially offset by higher production and lower lifting costs. Operating income increased due to lower expenses with legal contingencies and higher results with divestments, mitigated by higher impairment losses and exploratory expenses.
Lifting cost in 2019, without government take, was US$ 9.62/boe, a 12% reduction compared to the previous year (US$ 10.90/boe). The drop is mainly explained by the increase in production, with the start-up and ramp-up of pre-salt platforms, mainly in the Búzios and Lula fields.
The drop in Brent prices from 2018 to 2019 explains the reduction in government take in the period, partially offset by the payment of the unification of Parque das Baleias, in 2019. In unit terms, the relationship also benefited from the increase in production in the Transfer of Rights, which is not subjected to special participation taxes.
As disclosed in the 2020-2024 Strategic Plan, Petrobras will segregate the cost of chartering platforms with third parties (leasing cost) from the lifting cost without government take. This portion represents, in 2019, US$ 1.8/boe and US$ 2.0/boe in 2018, of a total of US$ 9.62/boe and US$ 10.90/boe, respectively.
The increase in gross profit in 4Q19 is mainly due to higher production, higher Brent prices, the price appreciation of our oil due to IMO 2020. Higher operating profit reflects the increase in gross profit and the gain on divestments, especially the Pargo cluster, partially offset by impairment losses and exploratory expenses.
Pre-salt lifting cost in the quarter, without government take, was US$ 5.02/boe, in line with 3Q19 figures. The good results achieved in the pre-salt platforms explain the metric’s stability.
In the post-salt, we had a 21% drop in lifting cost without government take in 4Q19. We observed a reduction in the costs of platforms P-33 and P-37, which interrupted production with no expected return, as well as a reduction in intervention costs between quarters.
In shallow water, there was a 9% reduction in lifting cost in 4Q19 compared to the previous quarter, mainly due to the divestment of the Pargo and Vermelho fields, which had higher unit costs.
In onshore fields, the lifting cost without government take decreased by 4% in dollars in 4Q19 due to the impact of the 3.6% devaluation of the real against the dollar in the period.
Onshore and shallow water fields are not the Company’s core assets and recent transactions showed that there is a great interest from companies capable of adding more value to those assets than Petrobras. At the same time, the sale of these assets has been impacting positively the economic activity, since the new owners have significantly increased investments in these assets, creating jobs and fostering the development of the oil and gas services industry. In 2019, we recorded approximately US$1.0 billion in gains from the sales of these assets and US$ 645 million in impairment reversals.
There was an increase in the payment of government take in 4Q19 relative to the previous quarter, mainly due to increase in production.

In 2019 the reduction in gross profit was due to lower margins and volumes of diesel and gasoline sold in the domestic market, as well as the exchange translation effect and the reduction in the positive effect of inventory turnover of approximately US$ 0.8 billion between the years. In 2019, the inventory turnover was approximately US$ 1.0 billion. These factors were partially offset by higher volumes and margins in exports of fuel oil and crude oil.
Lower operating profit was due to higher selling expenses, higher impairment (RNEST, Comperj and Pasadena) and higher expenses with lawsuits related to environmental taxes as well as contingencies related to the OSPAR pipeline.
In 4Q19, the improvement in gross profit was mainly due to the inventory turnover effect of approximately US$ 0.5 billion, due to the realization of inventories at prices above acquisition costs, as a result of the increase in Brent between quarters.
Diesel sales volumes dropped in the domestic market, due to seasonality. There were lower margins and volumes of LPG in the domestic market. On the other hand, there were higher volumes exported and higher fuel oil crack spreads, of 5.1 US$/bbl. Natural gas, an input to the refineries, was purchased at lower prices, due to the reduction in unit costs, favoring results.
Refining unit cost decreased due to lower personnel costs in dollars combined with the exchange rate variation in the period. Although there was higher demand for low sulphur fuel oil, the utilization factor reduced to 76% in 4Q19, against 80% in the 3Q19, due to lower overall demand in the domestic market.
Operating profit was higher in the quarter, reflecting the increase in gross profit, partially offset by higher impairment expenses in RNEST's 2nd Train, in addition to higher selling expenses, due to the increase in shipping costs, and tax expenses, due to the adhesion to State Amnesties programs.

In 2019, the higher gross profit was due to better margins on natural gas sales to the non-thermoelectric sector and on energy in the Free Contracting Environment (ACL) due to the reduction in spot prices, reducing the costs of settling sales contracts at the Chamber of Commercialization of Electric Energy (CCEE).
Operating profit increased due to the sale of a 90% interest in TAG in June 19, despite higher selling expenses with the payment of TAG's tariffs.
In 4Q19, gross profit was higher due to better margins in sales of natural gas in the thermoelectric and non-thermoelectric sectors.
The operating loss reflects the increase in operating expenses due to the mothballing of ANSA and the impairment of UFN-III, besides the end of a tax dispute with the adhesion to State Amnesties programs.

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 Directors' view regarding the formation of the company's current business results, EBITDA is also presented adjusted (Adjusted EBITDA) as a result of: investments, impairment, results with divestments and write-off of assets, and cumulative exchange effects of (CTA) reclassified to income.
In the calculation of adjusted EBITDA, the Company added, for the periods of 2018, foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from provisions for lawsuits in foreign currencies. Provisions for legal proceedings in foreign currencies consist mainly of Petrobras' share of the Class Action agreement, which ended in December 2017. Exchange gains or losses on provisions of legal proceedings are presented in Other Income and Expenses for accounting purposes, but Management does not consider them as part of the Company's current activities, as they are similar to the exchange effects presented in the Net Financial Result. No adjustments were made in the comparative periods presented, since the values were not significant.
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 Net Debt to Adjusted EBITDA metric established in our Strategic Plan 2020-2024, helping to evaluate the company's leverage and liquidity.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not provided for in International Financial Reporting Standards 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.

Foreign Exchange Translation Effects on Results of Operations of 2019
The main functional currency of the Petrobras Group is the Brazilian real, which is the functional currency of the parent company and its Brazilian subsidiaries. However, the presentation currency of this financial report is the U.S. Dollar to facilitate the comparison with other oil and gas companies. Therefore, the Brazilian real-denominated results of operations real were translated into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates prevailing during the period.
When the Brazilian real appreciates against the U.S. dollar, the effect is to generally increase both revenues and expenses when expressed in U.S. dollars. When the Brazilian real depreciates against the U.S. dollar, as it did in 2019, the effect is to generally decrease both revenues and expenses when expressed in U.S. dollars.
In order to isolate the foreign exchange translation effect on results of operations, the table below presents a reconciliation of income statement to financial information on a constant currency basis, assuming the same exchange rates between each quarter for translation. In 2019, the results on a constant currency basis were computed by converting the 1Q-2019, 2Q-2019, 3Q-2019 and 4Q-2019 results from Brazilian real into U.S. dollars based on the same average exchange rates used in 1Q-2018, 2Q-2018, 3Q-2018 and 4Q-2018 (3.2433, 3.6056, 3.9505 and 3.8084, respectively).

The amounts and respective variations presented in constant currency are not measures in accordance with – IFRS. Our calculation may not be comparable to the calculation of other companies and it should not be considered as a substitute for any measure calculated in accordance with IFRS.
