Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements

Note 1—Basis of Presentation

The interim-period financial information presented in the financial statements included in this report is unaudited and, in the opinion of management, includes all known accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of ConocoPhillips, its results of operations and cash flows for such periods. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements included in this report. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Note 3—Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions

Surmont

On October 4, 2023, we completed our acquisition of the remaining 50 percent working interest in Surmont from TotalEnergies EP Canada Ltd. Fair value of consideration for the transaction was approximately $3.0 billion after customary adjustments (CAD $4.1 billion):

Fair value of consideration	Billions of Dollars
Cash paid	$	2.7
Contingent consideration	0.3
Total Consideration	$	3.0

The transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under FASB ASC 805 using the acquisition method, which requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be measured at their acquisition date fair values.

The contingent payment arrangement requires additional consideration to be paid to TotalEnergies EP Canada Ltd. up to $0.4 billion CAD ($0.3 billion) over a five-year term. The contingent payments represent $2.0 million for every dollar that WCS pricing exceeds $52 per barrel during the month, subject to certain production targets being achieved. The range of the undiscounted amounts we could pay under the contingent consideration arrangement is between $0 and $0.3 billion. The fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date was $0.3 billion and estimated by applying the income approach.

We are currently in the process of finalizing the initial accounting for the transaction and provisional fair value measurements will be made in the fourth quarter of 2023. We may adjust the measurements in subsequent periods, up to one year from the acquisition date as we identify additional information to complete the necessary analysis.

ConocoPhillips      2023 Q3 10-Q 6

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Table of Contents

QatarEnergy LNG NFS(3) (NFS3), formerly Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited (12) (QG12)

During 2022, we were awarded a 25 percent interest in NFS3, a new joint venture with QatarEnergy, to participate in the North Field South (NFS) LNG project. Formation of the NFS joint venture, NFS3, closed in June 2023. NFS3 has a 25 percent interest in the NFS project and is reported as an equity method investment in our Europe, Middle East and North Africa segment. See Note 4.

Port Arthur Liquefaction Holdings, LLC (PALNG)

In March 2023, we acquired a 30 percent direct equity investment in PALNG, a joint venture for the development of a large-scale LNG facility for the first phase of the Port Arthur LNG project ("Phase 1"). Sempra PALNG Holdings, LLC owns the remaining 70 percent interest in the joint venture. PALNG is reported as an equity method investment in our Corporate and Other segment. See Note 4.

Planned Acquisition

Australia Pacific LNG Pty Ltd (APLNG)

In March 2023, we announced that, subject to the closing of EIG's transaction with Origin Energy, we intend to purchase up to an additional 2.49 percent shareholding interest in APLNG for $0.5 billion, subject to customary adjustments. Upon closing we will own up to 49.99 percent interest in APLNG. The transaction is expected to close in late 2023 or early 2024, with an effective date of July 1, 2022. Both EIG's transaction with Origin Energy and our shareholder acquisition are subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Note 4—Investments and Long-Term Receivables

APLNG

In 2012, APLNG executed an $8.5 billion project finance facility that became non-recourse following financial completion in 2017. The facility is currently composed of a financing agreement with the Export-Import Bank of the United States, a commercial bank facility and two United States Private Placement note facilities. APLNG principal and interest payments commenced in March 2017 and are scheduled to occur bi-annually until September 2030. At September 30, 2023, a balance of $4.7 billion was outstanding on these facilities. See Note 8.

At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of our equity method investment in APLNG was approximately $5.4 billion.

PALNG

In March 2023, we acquired a 30 percent direct equity investment in PALNG, a joint venture for the development of a large-scale LNG facility. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of our equity method investment in PALNG was approximately $0.9 billion. See Note 3.

QatarEnergy LNG

In the third quarter of 2023, the names of all the Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited joint ventures were changed to QatarEnergy LNG.

Our equity method investments in Qatar include the following:

•QatarEnergy LNG N(3) (N3), formerly Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited (3) (QG3)—30 percent owned joint venture with affiliates of QatarEnergy (68.5 percent) and Mitsui (1.5 percent)—produces and liquefies natural gas from Qatar’s North Field, as well as exports LNG.

•QatarEnergy LNG NFE(4) (NFE4), formerly Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited (8) (QG8)—25 percent owned joint venture with an affiliate of QatarEnergy (75 percent)—participant in the North Field East project.

•QatarEnergy LNG NFS(3) (NFS3), formerly Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited (12) (QG12)—25 percent owned joint venture with an affiliate of QatarEnergy (75 percent)—participant in the North Field South project. See Note 3.

At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of our Qatar equity method investments was approximately $1.1 billion.

Note 5—Investment in Cenovus Energy

During the first quarter of 2022, we sold our remaining 91 million common shares of Cenovus Energy (CVE), recognizing proceeds of $1.4 billion and a net gain of $251 million. The gain was recognized within "Other income” on our consolidated income statement. Proceeds related to the sale of our CVE shares were included within "Cash Flows From Investing Activities" on our consolidated statement of cash flows.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Table of Contents

Note 6—Debt

In the third quarter of 2023, we issued $2.7 billion in new Notes through our universal shelf registration statement and prospectus supplement. The net proceeds were used to fund the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent working interest in Surmont, which was completed on October 4, 2023. See Note 3. The following Notes were issued:

•5.05% Notes due 2033 with principal of $1.0 billion

•5.55% Notes due 2054 with principal of $1.0 billion

•5.70% Notes due 2063 with principal of $0.7 billion

In the second quarter of 2023, as described further below, we initiated and completed two concurrent transactions as part of our debt refinancing strategy. We issued $1.1 billion in new Notes through our universal shelf registration statement and prospectus supplement and used the proceeds to repurchase $1.1 billion of existing debt.

New Debt Issuance

On May 23, 2023, we issued 5.3% Notes due 2053 with principal of $1.1 billion.

Tender Offers

On May 25, 2023, we repurchased a total of $1,133 million aggregate principal amount of debt as listed below. We paid $33 million below face value to repurchase these debt instruments and recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $27 million which is included in the "Other expenses" line on our consolidated income statement.

•2.125% Notes due 2024 with principal of $900 million (partial repurchase of $439 million)

•3.350% Notes due 2024 with principal of $426 million (partial repurchase of $160 million)

•2.400% Notes due 2025 with principal of $900 million (partial repurchase of $534 million)

Our debt balance at September 30, 2023 was $19.1 billion, compared with $16.6 billion at December 31, 2022.

Our revolving credit facility provides a total borrowing capacity of $5.5 billion with an expiration date of February 2027. Our revolving credit facility may be used for direct bank borrowings, the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, or as support for our commercial paper program. The revolving credit facility is broadly syndicated among financial institutions and does not contain any material adverse change provisions or any covenants requiring maintenance of specified financial ratios or credit ratings. The facility agreement contains a cross-default provision relating to the failure to pay principal or interest on other debt obligations of $200 million or more by ConocoPhillips, or any of its consolidated subsidiaries. The amount of the facility is not subject to redetermination prior to its expiration date.

Credit facility borrowings may bear interest at a margin above the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The facility agreement calls for commitment fees on available, but unused, amounts. The facility agreement also contains early termination rights if our current directors or their approved successors cease to be a majority of the Board of Directors.

The revolving credit facility supports our ability to issue up to $5.5 billion of commercial paper. Commercial paper is generally limited to maturities of 90 days and is included in short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet. With no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit, we had access to $5.5 billion in available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2023. At December 31, 2022, we had no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit issued.

We do not have any ratings triggers on any of our corporate debt that would cause an automatic default, and thereby impact our access to liquidity upon downgrade of our credit ratings. If our credit ratings are downgraded from their current levels, it could increase the cost of corporate debt available to us and restrict our access to the commercial paper markets. If our credit ratings were to deteriorate to a level prohibiting us from accessing the commercial paper market, we would still be able to access funds under our revolving credit facility.

At September 30, 2023, we had $283 million of certain variable rate demand bonds (VRDBs) outstanding with maturities ranging through 2035. The VRDBs are redeemable at the option of the bondholders on any business day. If they are ever redeemed, we have the ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis; therefore, the VRDBs are included in the “Long-term debt” line on our consolidated balance sheet.

Note 8—Guarantees

At September 30, 2023, we were liable for certain contingent obligations under various contractual arrangements as described below. We recognize a liability, at inception, for the fair value of our obligation as a guarantor for newly issued or modified guarantees. Unless the carrying amount of the liability is noted below, we have not recognized a liability because the fair value of the obligation is immaterial. In addition, unless otherwise stated, we are not currently performing with any significance under the guarantee and expect future performance to be either immaterial or have only a remote chance of occurrence.

APLNG Guarantees

At September 30, 2023, we had outstanding multiple guarantees in connection with our 47.5 percent ownership interest in APLNG. The following is a description of the guarantees with values calculated utilizing September 2023 exchange rates:

•During the third quarter of 2016, we issued a guarantee to facilitate the withdrawal of our pro-rata portion of the funds in a project finance reserve account. We estimate the remaining term of this guarantee to be seven years. Our maximum exposure under this guarantee is approximately $210 million and may become payable if an enforcement action is commenced by the project finance lenders against APLNG. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of this guarantee was approximately $14 million.

•In conjunction with our original purchase of an ownership interest in APLNG from Origin Energy Limited in October 2008, we agreed to reimburse Origin Energy Limited for our share of the existing contingent liability arising under guarantees of an existing obligation of APLNG to deliver natural gas under several sales agreements. The final guarantee expires in the fourth quarter of 2041. Our maximum potential liability for future payments, or cost of volume delivery, under these guarantees is estimated to be $710 million ($1.2 billion in the event of intentional or reckless breach) and would become payable if APLNG fails to meet its obligations under these agreements and the obligations cannot otherwise be mitigated. Future payments are considered unlikely, as the payments, or cost of volume delivery, would only be triggered if APLNG does not have enough natural gas to meet these sales commitments and if the co-venturers do not make necessary equity contributions into APLNG.

•We have guaranteed the performance of APLNG with regard to certain other contracts executed in connection with the project’s continued development. The guarantees have remaining terms of 13 to 22 years or the life of the venture. Our maximum potential amount of future payments related to these guarantees is approximately $380 million and would become payable if APLNG does not perform. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of these guarantees was approximately $29 million.

QatarEnergy LNG Guarantees

We have guaranteed our portion of certain fiscal and other joint venture obligations as a shareholder in NFE4 and NFS3. These guarantees have an approximate 30-year term with no maximum limit. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of these guarantees was approximately $14 million.

Other Guarantees

We have other guarantees with maximum future potential payment amounts totaling approximately $590 million, which consist primarily of guarantees of the residual value of leased office buildings and guarantees of the residual value of corporate aircraft. These guarantees have remaining terms of two to four years and would become payable if certain asset values are lower than guaranteed amounts at the end of the lease or contract term, business conditions decline at guaranteed entities, or as a result of nonperformance of contractual terms by guaranteed parties. At September 30, 2023, there was no carrying value associated with these guarantees.

Indemnifications

Over the years, we have entered into agreements to sell ownership interests in certain legal entities, joint ventures and assets that gave rise to qualifying indemnifications. These agreements include indemnifications for taxes and environmental liabilities. The carrying amount recorded for these indemnification obligations at September 30, 2023, was approximately $20 million. Those related to environmental issues have terms that are generally indefinite, and the maximum amounts of future payments are generally unlimited. Although it is reasonably possible future payments may exceed amounts recorded, due to the nature of the indemnifications, it is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments. See Note 9 for additional information about environmental liabilities.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Table of Contents

Note 9—Contingencies and Commitments

A number of lawsuits involving a variety of claims arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed against ConocoPhillips. We also may be required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the placement, storage, disposal or release of certain chemical, mineral and petroleum substances at various active and inactive sites. We regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. In the case of all known contingencies (other than those related to income taxes), we accrue a liability when the loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the low end of the range is accrued. We do not reduce these liabilities for potential insurance or third-party recoveries. We accrue receivables for insurance or other third-party recoveries when applicable. With respect to income tax-related contingencies, we use a cumulative probability-weighted loss accrual in cases where sustaining a tax position is less than certain.

Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures. Estimates particularly sensitive to future changes include contingent liabilities recorded for environmental remediation, tax and legal matters. Estimated future environmental remediation costs are subject to change due to such factors as the uncertain magnitude of cleanup costs, the unknown time and extent of such remedial actions that may be required, and the determination of our liability in proportion to that of other responsible parties. Estimated future costs related to tax and legal matters are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation processes.

Environmental

We are subject to international, federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations and record accruals for environmental liabilities based on management’s best estimates. These estimates are based on currently available facts, existing technology, and presently enacted laws and regulations, taking into account stakeholder and business considerations. When measuring environmental liabilities, we also consider our prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites, other companies’ cleanup experience, and data released by the U.S. EPA or other organizations. We consider unasserted claims in our determination of environmental liabilities, and we accrue them in the period they are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Although liability of those potentially responsible for environmental remediation costs is generally joint and several for federal sites and frequently so for other sites, we are usually only one of many companies cited at a particular site. Due to the joint and several liabilities, we could be responsible for all cleanup costs related to any site at which we have been designated as a potentially responsible party. We have been successful to date in sharing cleanup costs with other financially sound companies. Many of the sites at which we are potentially responsible are still under investigation by the EPA or the agency concerned. Prior to actual cleanup, those potentially responsible normally assess the site conditions, apportion responsibility and determine the appropriate remediation. In some instances, we may have no liability or may attain a settlement of liability. Where it appears that other potentially responsible parties may be financially unable to bear their proportional share, we consider this inability in estimating our potential liability, and we adjust our accruals accordingly. As a result of various acquisitions in the past, we assumed certain environmental obligations. Some of these environmental obligations are mitigated by indemnifications made by others for our benefit, and some of the indemnifications are subject to dollar limits and time limits.

We are currently participating in environmental assessments and cleanups at numerous CERCLA and other comparable state and international sites. After an assessment of environmental exposures for cleanup and other costs, we make accruals on an undiscounted basis (except those acquired in a purchase business combination, which we record on a discounted basis) for planned investigation and remediation activities for sites where it is probable future costs will be incurred and these costs can be reasonably estimated. We have not reduced these accruals for possible insurance recoveries.

For remediation activities in the U.S. and Canada, our consolidated balance sheet included a total environmental accrual of $187 million at September 30, 2023, compared with $182 million at December 31, 2022. We expect to incur a substantial amount of these expenditures within the next 30 years. In the future, we may be involved in additional environmental assessments, cleanups and proceedings.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

We are subject to various lawsuits and claims including, but not limited to, matters involving oil and gas royalty and severance tax payments, gas measurement and valuation methods, contract disputes, environmental damages, climate change, personal injury, and property damage. Our primary exposures for such matters relate to alleged royalty and tax underpayments on certain federal, state and privately owned properties, claims of alleged environmental contamination and damages from historic operations, and climate change. We will continue to defend ourselves vigorously in these matters.

Our legal organization applies its knowledge, experience and professional judgment to the specific characteristics of our cases, employing a litigation management process to manage and monitor the legal proceedings against us. Our process facilitates the early evaluation and quantification of potential exposures in individual cases. This process also enables us to track those cases that have been scheduled for trial and/or mediation. Based on professional judgment and experience in using these litigation management tools and available information about current developments in all our cases, our legal organization regularly assesses the adequacy of current accruals and determines if adjustment of existing accruals, or establishment of new accruals, is required.

We have contingent liabilities resulting from throughput agreements with pipeline and processing companies not associated with financing arrangements. Under these agreements, we may be required to provide any such company with additional funds through advances and penalties for fees related to throughput capacity not utilized. In addition, at September 30, 2023, we had performance obligations secured by letters of credit of $398 million (issued as direct bank letters of credit) related to various purchase commitments for materials, supplies, commercial activities and services incident to the ordinary conduct of business.

In 2007, ConocoPhillips was unable to reach agreement with respect to the empresa mixta structure mandated by the Venezuelan government’s Nationalization Decree. As a result, Venezuela’s national oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), or its affiliates, directly assumed control over ConocoPhillips’ interests in the Petrozuata and Hamaca heavy oil ventures and the offshore Corocoro development project. In response to this expropriation, ConocoPhillips initiated international arbitration on November 2, 2007, with the ICSID. On September 3, 2013, an ICSID arbitration tribunal ("Tribunal") held that Venezuela unlawfully expropriated ConocoPhillips’ significant oil investments in June 2007. On January 17, 2017, the Tribunal reconfirmed the decision that the expropriation was unlawful. In March 2019, the Tribunal unanimously ordered the government of Venezuela to pay ConocoPhillips approximately $8.7 billion in compensation for the government’s unlawful expropriation of the company’s investments in Venezuela in 2007. On August 29, 2019, the Tribunal issued a decision rectifying the award and reducing it by approximately $227 million. The award now stands at $8.5 billion plus interest. The government of Venezuela sought annulment of the award, which automatically stayed enforcement of the award. On September 29, 2021, the ICSID annulment committee lifted the stay of enforcement of the award. The annulment proceedings are underway.

In 2014, ConocoPhillips filed a separate and independent arbitration under the rules of the ICC against PDVSA under the contracts that had established the Petrozuata and Hamaca projects. The ICC Tribunal issued an award in April 2018, finding that PDVSA owed ConocoPhillips approximately $2 billion under their agreements in connection with the expropriation of the projects and other pre-expropriation fiscal measures. In August 2018, ConocoPhillips entered into a settlement with PDVSA to recover the full amount of this ICC award, plus interest through the payment period, including initial payments totaling approximately $500 million within a period of 90 days from the time of signing the settlement agreement. The balance of the settlement was to be paid quarterly over a period of four and a half years. Per the settlement, PDVSA recognized the ICC award as a judgment in various jurisdictions, and ConocoPhillips agreed to suspend its legal enforcement actions. ConocoPhillips sent notices of default to PDVSA on October 14 and November 12, 2019, and to date PDVSA has failed to cure its breach. As a result, ConocoPhillips has resumed legal enforcement actions. To date, ConocoPhillips has received approximately $777 million in connection with the ICC award. ConocoPhillips has ensured that the settlement and any actions taken in enforcement thereof meet all appropriate U.S. regulatory requirements, including those related to any applicable sanctions imposed by the U.S. against Venezuela.

In 2016, ConocoPhillips filed a separate and independent arbitration under the rules of the ICC against PDVSA under the contracts that had established the Corocoro Project. On August 2, 2019, the ICC Tribunal awarded ConocoPhillips approximately $33 million plus interest under the Corocoro contracts. ConocoPhillips is seeking recognition and enforcement of the award in various jurisdictions. ConocoPhillips has ensured that all the actions related to the award meet all appropriate U.S. regulatory requirements, including those related to any applicable sanctions imposed by the U.S. against Venezuela.

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Table of Contents

Beginning in 2017, governmental and other entities in several states/territories in the U.S. have filed lawsuits against oil and gas companies, including ConocoPhillips, seeking compensatory damages and equitable relief to abate alleged climate change impacts. Additional lawsuits with similar allegations are expected to be filed. The legal and factual issues are unprecedented, therefore, there is significant uncertainty about the scope of the claims and alleged damages and any potential impact on the Company’s financial condition. ConocoPhillips believes these lawsuits are factually and legally meritless and are an inappropriate vehicle to address the challenges associated with climate change and will vigorously defend against such lawsuits.

Several Louisiana parishes and the State of Louisiana have filed 43 lawsuits under Louisiana’s State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act (SLCRMA) against oil and gas companies, including ConocoPhillips, seeking compensatory damages for contamination and erosion of the Louisiana coastline allegedly caused by historical oil and gas operations. ConocoPhillips entities are defendants in 22 of the lawsuits and will vigorously defend against them. On October 17, 2022, the Fifth Circuit affirmed remand of the lead case to state court and the subsequent request for rehearing was denied. On February 27, 2023, the Supreme Court denied a certiorari petition from the defendants regarding the Fifth Circuit ruling. Accordingly, the federal district courts have issued remands to state court. Because Plaintiffs’ SLCRMA theories are unprecedented, there is uncertainty about these claims (both as to scope and damages) and we continue to evaluate our exposure in these lawsuits.

In October 2020, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) ordered the prior owners of Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lease P-0166, including ConocoPhillips, to decommission the lease facilities, including two offshore platforms located near Carpinteria, California. This order was sent after the current owner of OCS Lease P-0166 relinquished the lease and abandoned the lease platforms and facilities. BSEE’s order to ConocoPhillips is premised on its connection to Phillips Petroleum Company, a legacy company of ConocoPhillips, which held a historical 25 percent interest in this lease and operated these facilities but sold its interest approximately 30 years ago. ConocoPhillips continues to evaluate its exposure in this matter.

On May 10, 2021, ConocoPhillips filed arbitration under the rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) against Santos KOTN Pty Ltd. and Santos Limited for their failure to timely pay the $200 million bonus due upon final investment decision of the Barossa development project under the sale and purchase agreement for the sale of our Australia-West asset and operations. The matter was resolved in April 2023 to our satisfaction.

In July 2021, a federal securities class action was filed against Concho, certain of Concho’s officers, and ConocoPhillips as Concho’s successor in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. On October 21, 2021, the court issued an order appointing Utah Retirement Systems and the Construction Laborers Pension Trust for Southern California as lead plaintiffs (Lead Plaintiffs). On January 7, 2022, the Lead Plaintiffs filed their consolidated complaint alleging that Concho made materially false and misleading statements regarding its business and operations in violation of the federal securities laws and seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, equitable/injunctive relief, and such other relief that may be deemed appropriate. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint on March 8, 2022. On June 23, 2023, the court denied defendants’ motion as to most defendants including Concho/ConocoPhillips. We believe the allegations in the action are without merit and are vigorously defending this litigation.

ConocoPhillips is involved in pending disputes with commercial counterparties relating to the propriety of its force majeure notices following Winter Storm Uri in 2021. We believe these claims are without merit and are vigorously defending them.

Long-Term Unconditional Purchase Obligations and Commitments, Including Throughput and Take-or-Pay Agreements

We have certain throughput agreements and take-or-pay agreements in support of financing arrangements. The agreements typically provide for natural gas or crude oil transport and LNG purchase commitments. The fixed and determinable portion of the remaining estimated payments under these various agreements as of September 30, 2023 are: 2023—$2 million; 2024—$7 million; 2025—$7 million; 2026—$7 million; 2027—$7 million; and 2028 and after—$11 billion. Generally, variable components of these obligations include commodity futures prices and inflation rates. Purchases of LNG under these commitments are expected to be offset in the same or approximately same periods by cash received from the related sales transactions.

Note 10—Derivative and Financial Instruments

We use futures, forwards, swaps and options in various markets to meet our customers' needs, capture market opportunities and manage foreign exchange currency risk. Certain of our equity method investments use swaps to manage interest rate risk.

Commodity Derivative Instruments

Our commodity business primarily consists of natural gas, crude oil, bitumen, LNG, NGLs and power.

Commodity derivative instruments are held at fair value on our consolidated balance sheet. Where these balances have the right of setoff, they are presented on a net basis. Related cash flows are recorded as operating activities on our consolidated statement of cash flows. On our consolidated income statement, gains and losses are recognized either on a gross basis if directly related to our physical business or a net basis if held for trading. Gains and losses related to contracts that meet and are designated with the NPNS exception are recognized upon settlement. We generally apply this exception to eligible crude contracts and certain gas contracts. We do not apply hedge accounting for our commodity derivatives.

The following table presents the gross fair values of our commodity derivatives, excluding collateral, on our consolidated balance sheet:

Foreign Currency Exchange Derivatives

In the second quarter of 2023, we entered into foreign exchange forward contracts to buy $5.2 billion CAD at $0.751 against the USD for settlement in September 2023, in anticipation of our planned acquisition of the additional interest in Surmont. For both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a realized loss of $76 million in the "Foreign currency transaction (gain) loss" line on our consolidated income statement. The related cash flows associated with the loss on derivatives are included in the "Other" line within investing activities on our consolidated statement of cash flows. We subsequently entered into additional foreign exchange forward contracts to buy $4.3 billion CAD at $0.736 against the USD. At September 30, 2023, the forward contracts had a net fair value of $36 million. The derivative asset of $47 million and the derivative liability of $11 million are reported within the "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" and "Other accruals" lines, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheet. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recorded an unrealized gain of $17 million and $36 million, respectively, in the "Foreign currency transaction (gain) loss" line on our consolidated income statement related to these contracts, which settled in the fourth quarter.

Interest Rate Derivative Instruments

During 2023, PALNG executed interest rate swaps that had the effect of converting 60 percent of the projected term loans outstanding to finance the cost of development and construction of Phase 1 from floating to fixed rate. These swaps were designated and qualify for hedge accounting under ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging", as a cash flow hedge with changes in the fair value of the designated hedging instrument reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same periods that the hedged transactions will affect earnings. We recognize our proportionate share of PALNG’s adjustments for other comprehensive income as a change to our equity method investment with corresponding adjustments in equity. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recognized an unrealized gain of $46 million in other comprehensive income related to these swaps.

Financial Instruments

We invest in financial instruments with maturities based on our cash forecasts for the various accounts and currency pools we manage. The types of financial instruments in which we currently invest include:

•Time deposits: Interest bearing deposits placed with financial institutions for a predetermined amount of time.

•Demand deposits: Interest bearing deposits placed with financial institutions. Deposited funds can be withdrawn without notice.

•Commercial paper: Unsecured promissory notes issued by a corporation, commercial bank or government agency purchased at a discount, reaching par value at maturity.

•U.S. government or government agency obligations: Securities issued by the U.S. government or U.S. government agencies.

•Foreign government obligations: Securities issued by foreign governments.

•Corporate bonds: Unsecured debt securities issued by corporations.

•Asset-backed securities: Collateralized debt securities.

As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, total unrealized losses for debt securities classified as available for sale with net losses were $14 million and $12 million, respectively. No allowance for credit losses has been recorded on investments in debt securities which are in an unrealized loss position.

For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, proceeds from sales and redemptions of investments in debt securities classified as available for sale were $258 million and $809 million, respectively. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, proceeds from sales and redemptions of investments in debt securities classified as available for sale were $198 million and $399 million, respectively. Gross realized gains and losses included in earnings from those sales and redemptions were negligible. The cost of securities sold and redeemed is determined using the specific identification method.

Credit Risk

Financial instruments potentially exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments in debt securities, OTC derivative contracts and trade receivables. Our cash equivalents and short-term investments are placed in high-quality commercial paper, government money market funds, U.S. government and government agency obligations, time deposits with major international banks and financial institutions, high-quality corporate bonds, foreign government obligations and asset-backed securities. Our long-term investments in debt securities are placed in high-quality corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, U.S. government and government agency obligations, and foreign government obligations.

The credit risk from our OTC derivative contracts, such as forwards, swaps and options, derives from the counterparty to the transaction. Individual counterparty exposure is managed within predetermined credit limits and includes the use of cash-call margins when appropriate, thereby reducing the risk of significant nonperformance. We also use futures, swaps and option contracts that have a negligible credit risk because these trades are cleared primarily with an exchange clearinghouse and subject to mandatory margin requirements until settled; however, we are exposed to the credit risk of those exchange brokers for receivables arising from daily margin cash calls, as well as for cash deposited to meet initial margin requirements.

Our trade receivables result primarily from our oil and gas operations and reflect a broad national and international customer base, which limits our exposure to concentrations of credit risk. The majority of these receivables have payment terms of 30 days or less, and we continually monitor this exposure and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. We may require collateral to limit the exposure to loss including letters of credit, prepayments and surety bonds, as well as master netting arrangements to mitigate credit risk with counterparties that both buy from and sell to us, as these agreements permit the amounts owed by us or owed to others to be offset against amounts due to us.

Certain of our derivative instruments contain provisions that require us to post collateral if the derivative exposure exceeds a threshold amount. We have contracts with fixed threshold amounts and other contracts with variable threshold amounts that are contingent on our credit rating. The variable threshold amounts typically decline for lower credit ratings, while both the variable and fixed threshold amounts typically revert to zero if we fall below investment grade. Cash is the primary collateral in all contracts; however, many also permit us to post letters of credit as collateral.

The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with such credit risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position at September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, was $108 million and $333 million, respectively. For these instruments, no collateral was posted at September 30, 2023, and $42 million of collateral was posted at December 31, 2022. If our credit rating had been downgraded below investment grade at September 30, 2023, we would have been required to post $89 million of additional collateral, either with cash or letters of credit.

Note 11—Fair Value Measurement

We carry a portion of our assets and liabilities at fair value that are measured at the reporting date using an exit price (i.e., the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability) and disclosed according to the quality of valuation inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

The classification of an asset or liability is based on the lowest level of input significant to its fair value. Those that are initially classified as Level 3 are subsequently reported as Level 2 when the fair value derived from unobservable inputs is inconsequential to the overall fair value, or if corroborated market data becomes available. Assets and liabilities initially reported as Level 2 are subsequently reported as Level 3 if corroborated market data is no longer available. There were no material transfers into or out of Level 3 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, nor during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recurring Fair Value Measurement

Financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value on a recurring basis include our investments in debt securities classified as available for sale and commodity derivatives.

•Level 1 derivative assets and liabilities primarily represent exchange-traded futures and options that are valued using unadjusted prices available from the underlying exchange. Level 1 also includes our investments in U.S. government obligations classified as available for sale debt securities, which are valued using exchange prices.

•Level 2 derivative assets and liabilities primarily represent OTC swaps, options and forward purchase and sale contracts that are valued using adjusted exchange prices, prices provided by brokers or pricing service companies that are all corroborated by market data. Level 2 also includes our investments in debt securities classified as available for sale, including investments in corporate bonds, commercial paper, asset-backed securities, U.S. government agency obligations and foreign government obligations that are valued using pricing provided by brokers or pricing service companies that are corroborated with market data.

•Level 3 derivative assets and liabilities consist of OTC swaps, options and forward purchase and sale contracts where a significant portion of fair value is calculated from underlying market data that is not readily available. The derived value uses industry standard methodologies that may consider the historical relationships among various commodities, modeled market prices, time value, volatility factors and other relevant economic measures. The use of these inputs results in management’s best estimate of fair value. Level 3 activity was not material for all periods presented.

The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy for gross financial assets and liabilities (i.e., unadjusted where the right of setoff exists for commodity derivatives accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis):

	Millions of Dollars

Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements Table of Contents

The following table summarizes those commodity derivative balances subject to the right of setoff as presented on our consolidated balance sheet. We have elected to offset the recognized fair value amounts for multiple derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty in our financial statements when a legal right of setoff exists.

	Millions of Dollars

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we did not present any amounts gross on our consolidated balance sheet where we had the right of setoff.

Reported Fair Values of Financial Instruments

We used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

•Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments: The carrying amount reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value. For those investments classified as available for sale debt securities, the carrying amount reported on the balance sheet is fair value.

•Accounts and notes receivable (including long-term and related parties): The carrying amount reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value.

•Investments in debt securities classified as available for sale: The fair value of investments in debt securities categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy is measured using exchange prices. The fair value of investments in debt securities categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy is measured using pricing provided by brokers or pricing service companies that are corroborated with market data. See Note 10.

•Accounts payable (including related parties) and floating-rate debt: The carrying amount of accounts payable and floating-rate debt reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value.

•Fixed-rate debt: The estimated fair value of fixed-rate debt is measured using prices available from a pricing service that is corroborated by market data; therefore, these liabilities are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

•Commercial paper: The carrying amount of our commercial paper instruments approximates fair value and is reported on the balance sheet as short-term debt.

The following table summarizes the net fair value of financial instruments (i.e., adjusted where the right of setoff exists for commodity derivatives):

	Millions of Dollars

Note 12—Suspended Wells

The capitalized cost of suspended wells at September 30, 2023 was $459 million, a decrease of $68 million from December 31, 2022. In the third quarter of 2023, after further evaluation we recognized dry hole expense of $37 million for the suspended Warka discovery well on license PL 1009 in the Norwegian Sea.

Note 17—Sales and Other Operating Revenues

Revenue from Contracts with Customers

The following table provides further disaggregation of our consolidated sales and other operating revenues:

Consolidated sales and other operating revenues	$	14,250	21,013	41,412	59,936

Revenues from contracts outside the scope of ASC Topic 606 relate primarily to physical gas contracts at market prices, which qualify as derivatives accounted for under ASC Topic 815, “Derivatives and Hedging,” and for which we have not elected NPNS. There is no significant difference in contractual terms or the policy for recognition of revenue from these contracts and those within the scope of ASC Topic 606. The following disaggregation of revenues is provided in conjunction with Note 19—Segment Disclosures and Related Information:

Practical Expedients

Typically, our commodity sales contracts are less than 12 months in duration; however, in certain specific cases may extend longer, which may be out to the end of field life. We have long-term commodity sales contracts which use prevailing market prices at the time of delivery, and under these contracts, the market-based variable consideration for each performance obligation (i.e., delivery of commodity) is allocated to each wholly unsatisfied performance obligation within the contract. Accordingly, we have applied the practical expedient allowed in ASC Topic 606 and do not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations or when we expect to recognize revenues that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of the end of the reporting period.

Receivables and Contract Liabilities

Receivables from Contracts with Customers

At September 30, 2023, the “Accounts and notes receivable” line on our consolidated balance sheet included trade receivables of $4,630 million compared with $5,241 million at December 31, 2022, and included both contracts with customers within the scope of ASC Topic 606 and those that are outside the scope of ASC Topic 606. We typically receive payment within 30 days or less (depending on the terms of the invoice) once delivery is made. Revenues that are outside the scope of ASC Topic 606 relate primarily to physical gas sales contracts at market prices for which we do not elect NPNS and are therefore accounted for as a derivative under ASC Topic 815. There is little distinction in the nature of the customer or credit quality of trade receivables associated with gas sold under contracts for which NPNS has not been elected compared to trade receivables where NPNS has been elected.

Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers

We have entered into certain agreements under which we license our proprietary technology, including the Optimized Cascade® process technology, to customers to maximize the efficiency of LNG plants. These agreements typically provide for milestone payments to be made during and after the construction phases of the LNG plant. The payments are not directly related to our performance obligations under the contract and are recorded as deferred revenue to be recognized when the customer is able to benefit from their right to use the applicable licensed technology. Revenue recognized during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 was immaterial. We expect to recognize the outstanding contract liabilities of $26 million as of September 30, 2023, as revenue during the years 2026, 2028 and 2029.

Note 19—Segment Disclosures and Related Information

We explore for, produce, transport and market crude oil, bitumen, natural gas, LNG and NGLs on a worldwide basis. We manage our operations through six operating segments, which are primarily defined by geographic region: Alaska; Lower 48; Canada; Europe, Middle East and North Africa; Asia Pacific; and Other International.

Corporate and Other represents income and costs not directly associated with an operating segment, such as most interest income and expense; impacts from certain debt transactions; consolidating tax adjustments; corporate overhead and certain technology activities, including licensing revenues; and unrealized holding gains or losses on equity securities. All cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are included in Corporate and Other.

We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on net income (loss). Intersegment sales are at prices that approximate market.

Note 20—Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 31.8 percent and 39.2 percent, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three-month period ending September 30, 2023 is primarily due to the release of tax reserves and the recognition of a Malaysia tax benefit, described below, and a shift in our mix of income among our tax jurisdictions.

Our effective tax rate for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 33.9 percent and 32.9 percent, respectively. The change in our effective tax rate for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 is primarily due to a smaller release of tax reserves in 2023 compared to 2022, partly offset by the recognition of a Malaysia tax benefit, described below, and a shift in our mix of income among our tax jurisdictions.

During the third quarter of 2023, we received legislative approval in the Malaysia Block J to claim certain deepwater tax incentives. As a result, we recorded an income tax benefit of $52 million.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Canada Revenue Agency closed the 2018 audit of one of our Canadian subsidiaries. As a result, we recognized a Canadian tax benefit of $92 million relating to our disposition of certain Canadian assets that was previously offset by a full reserve.

In the first quarter of 2022, the IRS closed the 2017 audit of our U.S. federal income tax return. As a result, we recognized federal and state tax benefits totaling $515 million relating to the recovery of outside tax basis previously offset by a full reserve.

The Company has ongoing income tax audits in a number of jurisdictions. The government agents in charge of these audits regularly request additional time to complete audits, which we generally grant, and conversely occasionally close audits unpredictably. Within the next twelve months, we may have audit periods close that could significantly impact our total unrecognized tax benefits. The amount of such change is not estimable but could be significant when compared with our total unrecognized tax benefits.

In October 2023, the statute of limitations expired with respect to a foreign subsidiary that will result in the recognition of a $203 million tax benefit in the fourth quarter related to the reversal of a tax reserve.

Business Environment and Executive Overview

ConocoPhillips is one of the world’s leading E&P companies based on production and reserves, with operations and activities in 13 countries. Our diverse, low cost of supply portfolio includes resource-rich unconventional plays in North America; conventional assets in North America, Europe, Africa and Asia; global LNG developments; oil sands in Canada; and an inventory of global exploration prospects. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, at September 30, 2023, we employed approximately 9,800 people worldwide and had total assets of $94 billion.

Overview

At ConocoPhillips, we anticipate that commodity prices will continue to be cyclical and volatile, and our view is that a successful business strategy in the E&P industry must be resilient in lower price environments, while also retaining full upside exposure during periods of higher prices. As such, we are unhedged, remain committed to our disciplined investment framework and continually monitor market fundamentals, including the impacts associated with the conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East, OPEC Plus crude supplies, global demand for our products, oil and gas inventory levels, governmental policies, inflation and supply chain disruptions.

The macro-environment, including the energy transition, also continues to evolve. We believe ConocoPhillips will continue to play an essential role by executing on three objectives: reliably and responsibly meeting energy transition pathway demand, delivering competitive returns on and of capital and focusing on achieving our net-zero operational emissions ambition. We call this our Triple Mandate, and it represents our commitment to create long-term value for our stakeholders.

Our value proposition to deliver superior returns to stockholders through price cycles is guided by foundational principles and capital allocation priorities that support our Triple Mandate. Our foundational principles consist of maintaining balance sheet strength, providing peer-leading distributions, making disciplined investments and demonstrating responsible and reliable ESG performance.

In July, we executed an agreement to purchase the remaining 50 percent interest in Surmont, an asset in our Canada segment. In October, we completed this purchase for approximately $2.7 billion of cash after customary adjustments, funded from proceeds received via debt offerings in August. The transaction also includes a contingent payment arrangement of up to an additional $0.3 billion over a five-year term. Now, as the 100 percent owner and operator of Surmont, we will seek to optimize the asset while remaining on track to achieve our previously announced corporate emissions intensity objectives. See Note 3.

In the third quarter of 2023, we issued new long-term debt to fund our acquisition of the remaining 50 percent working interest in Surmont. In the second quarter of 2023, we initiated and completed a strategic debt refinancing. These transactions extend the weighted average maturity of our portfolio and the second quarter refinancing reduces near-term debt maturities. See Note 6.

In September, we announced further progress on our global LNG strategy by signing a 15-year throughput agreement, securing additional regasification capacity at the Gate LNG terminal in the Netherlands. The 15-year agreement is for approximately 1.5 MTPA beginning in 2031. The additional capacity secures access to important markets for our growing LNG portfolio. Additionally, earlier in 2023, we further expanded our global LNG portfolio through a 30 percent direct equity investment in Port Arthur Liquefaction Holdings, LLC (PALNG) and a 25 percent equity interest in QatarEnergy LNG NFS(3) (NFS3). We also signed a 20-year offtake agreement at the Saguaro LNG export facility on the west coast of Mexico for approximately 2.2 MTPA, subject to Mexico Pacific reaching FID and other certain conditions precedent. See Note 3.

In November, we reconfirmed our 2023 planned return of capital to shareholders of $11 billion through our three-tier return of capital framework, significantly exceeding our commitment to return greater than 30 percent of our anticipated cash provided by operating activities for the full year. Also in November, we declared an increase to our quarterly ordinary dividend from $0.51 per share to $0.58 per share, representing a 14 percent increase. Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, ConocoPhillips plans to pay its quarterly ordinary dividend and VROC concurrently, and will announce such payments in the same quarter they will be paid.

Operationally, we remain focused on safely executing the business. Production was 1,806 MBOED in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 52 MBOED from the same period a year ago. After adjusting for impacts from closed acquisitions and dispositions, third-quarter 2023 production increased by 49 MBOED or three percent from the same period a year ago. Organic growth from Lower 48 and other development programs more than offset normal field decline and downtime.

Third-quarter production resulted in $5.4 billion of cash provided by operating activities. We also returned $1.3 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and $1.3 billion through our ordinary dividend and a VROC. We ended the quarter with cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments totaling $9.4 billion.

Also in the third quarter of 2023, we re-invested $2.5 billion into the business in the form of capital expenditures and investments, with over half of the expenditures related to flexible, short-cycle unconventional plays in the Lower 48 segment, where our production has access to both domestic and export markets.

Business Environment

Commodity prices are the most significant factor impacting our profitability and related returns on and of capital to our shareholders. Dynamics that could influence world energy markets and commodity prices include, but are not limited to, global economic health, supply or demand disruptions or fears thereof caused by civil unrest, global pandemics, military conflicts, actions taken by OPEC Plus and other major oil producing countries, environmental laws, tax regulations, governmental policies and weather-related disruptions. Our strategy is to create value through price cycles by delivering on the financial, operational and ESG priorities that underpin our value proposition.

Our earnings and operating cash flows generally correlate with price levels for crude oil and natural gas, which are subject to factors external to the company and over which we have no control. The following graph depicts the trend in average benchmark prices for WTI crude oil, Brent crude oil and Henry Hub natural gas:

Brent crude oil prices averaged $86.76 per barrel in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 14 percent compared with $100.85 per barrel in the third quarter of 2022. WTI at Cushing crude oil prices averaged $82.26 per barrel in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 10 percent compared with $91.56 per barrel in the third quarter of 2022. Oil prices normalized relative to third quarter 2022 prices which reflected elevated geopolitical risks associated with Russian supplies and expectations for high winter oil consumption which did not fully materialize.

Henry Hub natural gas prices averaged $2.54 per MMBTU in the third quarter of 2023, a decrease of 69 percent compared with $8.20 per MMBTU in the third quarter of 2022. Henry Hub prices decreased due to excess North American natural gas storage levels following a mild 2022-2023 winter.

Our realized bitumen price averaged $57.85 per barrel in the third quarter of 2023, an increase of 16 percent compared with $49.77 per barrel in the third quarter of 2022. The increase in the third quarter of 2023 was driven by higher blend prices for Surmont sales, largely attributed to narrowing WCS differentials following OPEC Plus heavy oil supply cuts. We continue to optimize bitumen price realizations through diluent recovery unit operating improvements as well as blending and transportation strategies.

For the third quarter of 2023, our total average realized price was $60.05 per BOE compared with $83.07 per BOE in the third quarter of 2022.

•Increased the quarterly ordinary dividend by 14 percent to $0.58 per share.

•Completed the purchase of the remaining 50 percent interest in Surmont in October for approximately $2.7 billion as well as future contingent payments of up to $0.4 billion CAD ($0.3 billion).

•Achieved first steam at Surmont Pad 267 and startup at the second phase of Montney's central processing facility in Canada.

•Reached first production ahead of schedule in October at Tommeliten A and partner-operated Breidablikk and Kobra East & Gekko in Norway and partner-operated Bohai Phase 4B in China.

•Further diversified LNG portfolio by signing a 15-year throughput agreement for approximately 1.5 MTPA of regasification at the Gate LNG terminal in the Netherlands.

•Delivered company and Lower 48 production of 1,806 MBOED and 1,083 MBOED, respectively.

•Generated cash provided by operating activities of $5.4 billion.

•Distributed $2.6 billion to shareholders through a three-tier framework, including $1.3 billion through the ordinary dividend and VROC and $1.3 billion through share repurchases.

•Ended the quarter with cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash of $9.1 billion and short-term investments of $0.6 billion, which included proceeds from long-term debt issuances of $2.7 billion to fund the Surmont acquisition.

Outlook

Production, Capital and DD&A

All guidance has been updated to reflect the acquisition of an additional 50 percent interest in Surmont but excludes any impacts from the previously announced APLNG transaction.

Fourth-quarter 2023 production is expected to be 1.86 to 1.90 MMBOED. Full-year production guidance is expected to be approximately 1.82 MMBOED, as compared to prior guidance of 1.80 to 1.81 MMBOED, due to the Surmont acquisition.

Full-year guidance for DD&A was updated to $8.3 billion versus prior guidance of $8.2 billion, primarily due to the Surmont acquisition.

Full-year capital guidance remains unchanged.

Consolidated Results

A summary of the company's net income (loss) by business segment follows:

	Millions of Dollars
	Three Months Ended September 30			Nine Months Ended September 30
	2023		2022	2023	2022
Alaska	$	448	580	1,236	1,851
Lower 48	1,781		2,653	4,863	9,024
Canada	186		119	224	726

Other International	(2)		(28)	(5)	(28)
Corporate and Other	(333)		(239)	(624)	(42)
Net income	$	2,798	4,527	7,950	15,431

Net income in the third quarter of 2023 decreased $1,729 million. Third quarter earnings were negatively impacted by:

•Lower realized commodity prices.

•Higher DD&A expenses primarily in the Lower 48 segment due to higher rates resulting from reserve revisions driven by higher operating costs and lower prices as well as higher overall production volumes.

•Higher production and operating expenses primarily driven by increased well work activity and higher production volumes in the Lower 48 segment.

•Lower LNG sales prices, reflected in equity in earnings of affiliates.

•Lower foreign exchange gains related to the USD strengthening against the NOK and losses associated with forward contracts to buy CAD, related to our planned acquisition of additional interest in Surmont. See Note 3 and Note 10.

Offsets to the earnings decreases include:

•Lower taxes other than income taxes primarily driven by lower commodity prices, partially offset by higher production volumes.

•Higher sales volumes driven primarily by development in the Lower 48 segment.

•Tax benefits of $92 million recognized upon the closing of a Canada Revenue Agency audit and $52 million associated with deepwater tax incentives for Malaysia Block J. See Note 20.

•Gains from dispositions primarily related to the divestment of an equity investment in the Lower 48 segment and the absence of a loss on the sale of certain noncore assets in the third quarter of 2022.

Net income in the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, decreased $7,481 million. In addition to the items mentioned above, earnings in the nine-month period were negatively impacted by:

•Absence of a $515 million tax benefit related to the closing of an IRS audit in the first quarter of 2022.

See Note 20.

•Absence of gains from dispositions associated with the divestiture of our Indonesia assets, gains from dispositions related to the sale of certain noncore assets in the Lower 48 segment and contingent payments associated with previous asset sales.

•Absence of gains associated with our Cenovus Energy (CVE) common shares which were fully divested in the first quarter of 2022. See Note 5.

•Higher selling, general and administrative expenses primarily due to mark to market adjustments associated with certain compensation programs.

See the “Segment Results” section for additional information.

Income Statement Analysis

Unless otherwise indicated, all results in Income Statement Analysis are before-tax.

Sales and other operating revenues for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 decreased $6,763 million and $18,524 million, respectively, primarily due to lower realized commodity prices, partially offset by higher sales volumes driven primarily by development in the Lower 48 segment. Decreases in the nine-month period also include the impact of the divestiture of our Indonesia assets in the first quarter of 2022.

Equity in earnings of affiliates for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 decreased $173 million and $212 million, respectively, due to lower earnings primarily driven by lower LNG and crude prices.

Gain (loss) on dispositions for the third quarter of 2023 increased $148 million primarily due to the divestiture of an equity investment in our Lower 48 segment as well as the absence of a loss on the sale of certain noncore assets in the Lower 48 segment in the third quarter of 2022. For the nine-month period of 2023, gain (loss) on dispositions decreased $839 million primarily due to the absence of a gain from the divestiture of our Indonesia assets in the first quarter of 2022, and the absence of contingent payments associated with previous dispositions in our Canada and Lower 48 segments, partially offset by the gains recognized in the third quarter of 2023.

Purchased commodities for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 decreased $3,708 million and $8,939 million, respectively, primarily due to lower prices across all commodities as well as lower volumes in the three month period.

Production and operating expenses for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 increased $196 million and $539 million, respectively, primarily due to increased well work activity and higher production volumes in the Lower 48 segment.

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $102 million in the nine-month period of 2023 primarily due to mark to market adjustments associated with certain compensation programs.

DD&A expenses for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 increased $223 million and $542 million, respectively, mainly due to higher rates from impacts to reserve revisions driven by higher operating costs and lower prices and higher overall production volumes primarily due to development in the Lower 48 segment.

Taxes other than income taxes for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 decreased $307 million and $1,053 million, respectively, driven by lower commodity prices, partially offset by higher production volumes.

Foreign currency transaction (gain) loss for the three- and nine-month periods of 2023 was impaired by $148 million and $136 million, respectively, primarily as a result of lower gains related to the USD strengthening against the NOK and losses associated with forward contracts to buy CAD, related to our planned acquisition of additional interest in Surmont in the three month period. See Note 3 and Note 10.

See Note 20—Income Taxes for information regarding our Income tax provision and effective tax rate.

We explore for, produce, transport and market crude oil, bitumen, natural gas, LNG and NGLs on a worldwide basis. At September 30, 2023, our operations were producing in the U.S., Norway, Canada, Australia, China, Malaysia, Qatar and Libya.

Total production in the third quarter of 2023 was 1,806 MBOED, an increase of 52 MBOED or three percent. Total production in the nine-month period of 2023 was 1,801 MBOED, an increase of 70 MBOED or four percent. Production increases were primarily due to new wells online in the Lower 48, Alaska, Australia, Canada, China and Malaysia.

Production increases were partially offset due to normal field decline.

After adjusting for impacts from closed acquisitions and dispositions, third-quarter 2023 production increased by 49 MBOED or three percent from the same period a year ago. Organic growth from Lower 48 and other development programs more than offset normal field decline and downtime.

After adjusting for impacts from closed acquisitions and dispositions, production in the nine-month period of 2023 increased 71 MBOED or four percent from the same period a year ago. Organic growth from Lower 48 and other development programs more than offset normal field decline and downtime.

Offsets to the production decreases include:

•Additional interest acquired in Libya's Waha Concession in the fourth quarter of 2022.

•Absence of curtailed production in Libya due to the force majeure at the Es Sider export terminal for approximately three weeks in July 2022.

In addition to the items mentioned above, in the nine-month period of 2023, the production decreases were partially offset by improved well performance in Norway.

Exploration Activity

In the third quarter of 2023, we charged $37 million before-tax to dry hole expense for the Norwegian Warka suspended discovery well on license PL 1009.

First Production on Projects in Norway

In October 2023, we reached first production on several projects in Norway, including Tommeliten A and partner-operated Breidablikk and Kobra East & Gekko, all ahead of schedule.

•Decrease due to the absence of an after-tax gain of $534 million associated with the divestiture of our Indonesia assets in the first quarter of 2022.

•Decrease due to lower sales volumes primarily from the divestiture of our Indonesia assets in the first quarter of 2022.

Consolidated Production

Average consolidated production decreased 8 MBOED and 16 MBOED in the three- and nine-month periods of 2023, respectively. Decreases to production include:

•Normal field decline.

•Decrease in gas entitlement percentage and lower demand in Malaysia.

Offsets to the production decreases include:

•Bohai Bay development activity and production optimization in China.

•First production from development activity in Gumusut Phase 3 in Malaysia.

In addition to the items mentioned above, in the nine-month period of 2023, production also decreased due to the divestiture of our Indonesia assets in the first quarter of 2022.

Planned Acquisition

In March 2023, we announced that, subject to the closing of EIG's transaction with Origin Energy, we plan to take over operatorship of the upstream assets and purchase up to an additional 2.49 percent shareholding interest in Australia Pacific LNG Pty Ltd (APLNG). Both EIG's transaction with Origin Energy and our shareholder acquisition are subject to Australian regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions. See Note 3.

Net interest expense consists of interest and financing expense, net of interest income and capitalized interest. Net interest expense improved by $34 million and $240 million in the three- and nine-month periods of 2023, respectively, primarily due to higher interest income and lower interest expenses due to higher capitalized interest for longer term major projects.

Corporate G&A expenses include compensation programs and staff costs. Corporate G&A expenses increased $116 million in the nine-month period of 2023, primarily due to mark to market adjustments associated with certain compensation programs.

Technology includes our investments in low-carbon technologies as well as other new technologies or businesses and licensing revenues. Other new technologies or businesses and licensing activities are focused on both conventional and tight oil reservoirs, shale gas, oil sands, enhanced oil recovery, as well as LNG. Earnings from Technology decreased $60 million in the nine-month period of 2023, primarily due to lower licensing revenues. See Note 17.

Other income (expense) or “Other” includes certain consolidating tax-related items, foreign currency transaction gains and losses, environmental costs associated with sites no longer in operation, other costs not directly associated with an operating segment, gains/losses on the early retirement of debt, holding gains or losses on equity securities, and pension settlement expense. In the third quarter of 2023, “Other” decreased $97 million primarily due to a consolidating tax adjustment and foreign exchange losses. In the nine-month period of 2023, "Other" decreased $646 million. In addition to the items mentioned above, decreases include the absence of a $474 million federal tax benefit, the absence of

$251 million gain associated with our CVE common shares, which were fully divested in the first quarter of 2022, and the absence of an after-tax gain of $62 million associated with debt restructuring transactions. The decreases were offset by the absence of $101 million tax impact associated with the disposition of our Indonesia assets in the first quarter of 2022. See Note 5 for information on our CVE common shares, Note 6 for information regarding our debt transactions and

*Capital includes total debt and total equity.

To meet our short-term and long-term liquidity requirements, we look to a variety of funding sources, including cash generated from operating activities, our commercial paper and credit facility programs, and our ability to sell securities using our shelf registration statement. During the first nine months of 2023, the primary uses of our available cash were $8.4 billion to support our ongoing capital expenditures and investments program, $4.3 billion to repurchase common stock, and $4.2 billion to pay the ordinary dividend and VROC.

At September 30, 2023, we had total liquidity of $14.9 billion, comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $8.8 billion, short-term investments of $0.6 billion, and available borrowing capacity under our credit facility of $5.5 billion. We believe current cash balances and cash generated by operating activities, together with access to external sources of funds as described below in the “Significant Changes in Capital” section, will be sufficient to meet our funding requirements in the near- and long-term, including our capital spending program, acquisitions, dividend payments and debt obligations.

Significant Changes in Capital

Operating Activities

Cash provided by operating activities was $14.7 billion for the first nine months of 2023, compared with $21.7 billion for the corresponding period of 2022. The decrease is primarily due to lower realized commodity prices across all products, partially offset by higher produced sales volumes in the Lower 48.

Our short-term and long-term operating cash flows are highly dependent upon prices for crude oil, bitumen, natural gas, LNG and NGLs. Prices and margins in our industry have historically been volatile and are driven by market conditions over which we have no control. Absent other mitigating factors, as these prices and margins fluctuate, we would expect a corresponding change in our operating cash flows.

The level of production volumes, as well as product and location mix, impacts our cash flows. Future production is subject to numerous uncertainties, including, among others, the volatile crude oil and natural gas price environment, which may impact investment decisions; the effects of price changes on production sharing and variable-royalty contracts; acquisition and disposition of fields; field production decline rates; new technologies; operating efficiencies; timing of startups and major turnarounds; political instability; impacts of a global pandemic; weather-related disruptions; and the addition of proved reserves through exploratory success and their timely and cost-effective development. While we actively manage for these factors, production levels can cause variability in cash flows, although generally this variability has not been as significant as that caused by commodity prices.

To maintain or grow our production volumes, we must continue to add to our proved reserve base. See the “Capital Expenditures and Investments” section.

Investing Activities

For the first nine months of 2023, we invested $8.4 billion in capital expenditures and investments. Our 2023 operating plan capital expenditures are currently expected to be between $10.8 billion to $11.2 billion. This guidance excludes any impact from the previously announced Surmont and APLNG transactions. Our 2022 capital expenditures and investments were $10.2 billion. See the “Capital Expenditures and Investments” section.

In the first nine months of 2023, we invested $1.1 billion in LNG projects, including Port Arthur Liquefaction Holdings, LLC (PALNG), QatarEnergy LNG NFE(4) (NFE4), and QatarEnergy LNG NFS(3) (NFS3). See Note 3.

Proceeds from asset sales were $0.6 billion in the first nine months of 2023 compared with $3.4 billion for the corresponding period in 2022. In the first nine months of 2022, we received proceeds of $1.4 billion for the sale of our remaining 91 million common shares of CVE, proceeds of $1.5 billion after customary adjustments, primarily from asset divestitures in our Asia Pacific and Lower 48 segments and $0.5 billion in contingent payments associated with prior divestitures. See Note 5.

We invest in short-term and long-term investments as part of our cash investment strategy, the primary objective of which is to protect principal, maintain liquidity and provide yield and total returns. These investments include time deposits, commercial paper and debt securities classified as available for sale. Funds for short-term needs to support our operating plan and provide resiliency to react to short-term price volatility are invested in highly liquid instruments with maturities within the year. Funds we consider available to maintain resiliency in longer term price downturns and to capture opportunities outside a given operating plan may be invested in instruments with maturities greater than one year.

Investing activities in the first nine months of 2023 included net sales of $1,860 million of investments. We had net sales of $2,433 million of short-term instruments and net purchases of $573 million of long-term instruments. See Note 14.

In July 2023, we executed an agreement to purchase the remaining 50 percent interest in Surmont from TotalEnergies EP Canada Ltd. In October, we completed this purchase for approximately $2.7 billion of cash after customary adjustments. See Note 3.

Financing Activities

We have a revolving credit facility totaling $5.5 billion with an expiration date of February 2027. The credit facility may be used for direct bank borrowings, the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, or as support for our commercial paper program. With no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit, we had access to $5.5 billion in available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2023.

In the third quarter of 2023, we issued $2.7 billion principal amount of new debt to fund our acquisition of the remaining 50 percent interest in Surmont. See Note 3 and Note 6.

In the second quarter of 2023, we initiated and completed refinancing transactions consisting of $1.1 billion in tender offers to repurchase existing debt with cash and a $1.1 billion new debt issuance to fund the repurchases. These strategic transactions extended the weighted average maturity of our portfolio and reduced our near-term debt maturities. See Note 6.

Our debt balance at September 30, 2023 was $19.1 billion compared with $16.6 billion at December 31, 2022. The current portion of debt, including payments for finance leases, is $881 million. Payments are expected to be made using current cash balances and cash generated by operating activities.

In September 2023, Moody's affirmed our long-term credit rating included below:

The current credit ratings on our long-term debt are:

•Fitch: “A” with a “stable” outlook

•S&P: “A-” with a “stable” outlook

•Moody's: "A2" with a "stable" outlook

See Note 6 for additional information on debt and the revolving credit facility.

Certain of our project-related contracts, commercial contracts and derivative instruments contain provisions requiring us to post collateral. Many of these contracts and instruments permit us to post either cash or letters of credit as collateral. At September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, we had direct bank letters of credit of $398 million and $368 million, respectively, which secured performance obligations related to various purchase commitments incident to the ordinary conduct of business. In the event of a credit rating downgrade, we may be required to post additional letters of credit.

Shelf Registration

We have a universal shelf registration statement on file with the SEC under which we have the ability to issue and sell an indeterminate number of various types of debt and equity securities.

Capital Requirements

For information about our capital expenditures and investments, see the “Capital Expenditures and Investments” section.

We believe in delivering value to our shareholders through our current three-tier return of capital framework. The framework is structured to deliver a compelling, growing ordinary dividend, a discretionary VROC payment, and through-cycle share repurchases. The VROC provides a flexible tool for meeting our commitment of returning greater than 30 percent of cash from operating activities during periods where commodity prices are meaningfully higher than our planning price range. Our expected 2023 total return of capital is $11 billion.

In the first nine months of 2023, we paid ordinary dividends of $1.53 per common share and VROC payments of $1.90 per common share. In the first nine months of 2022, we paid ordinary dividends of $1.38 per common share and VROC payments of $1.20 per common share.

In November 2023, we declared an increase to our quarterly ordinary dividend from $0.51 per share to $0.58 per share, representing a 14 percent increase. The ordinary dividend of $0.58 per share is payable December 1, 2023, to shareholders of record on November 14, 2023. Beginning in the first quarter of 2024, ConocoPhillips plans to pay its quarterly ordinary dividend and VROC concurrently, and will announce such payments in the same quarter they will be paid.

In late 2016, we initiated our current share repurchase program. As of October 2022, we had announced a total authorization to repurchase up to $45 billion of our common stock. Repurchases are made at management’s discretion, at prevailing prices, subject to market conditions and other factors. As of September 30, 2023, share repurchases since the inception of our current program totaled 374.0 million shares and $27.7 billion. In the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we repurchased 39.2 million shares for a cost of $4.3 billion.

See Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors – “Our ability to execute our capital return program is subject to certain considerations” in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Contingencies

We are subject to legal proceedings, claims and liabilities that arise in the ordinary course of business. We accrue for losses associated with legal claims when such losses are considered probable and the amounts can be reasonably estimated. See Note 9.

Legal and Tax Matters

We are subject to various lawsuits and claims including but not limited to matters involving oil and gas royalty and severance tax payments, gas measurement and valuation methods, contract disputes, environmental damages, climate change, personal injury and property damage. Our primary exposures for such matters relate to alleged royalty and tax underpayments on certain federal, state and privately owned properties, claims of alleged environmental contamination and damages from historic operations and climate change. We will continue to defend ourselves vigorously in these matters.

Our legal organization applies its knowledge, experience and professional judgment to the specific characteristics of our cases, employing a litigation management process to manage and monitor the legal proceedings against us. Our process facilitates the early evaluation and quantification of potential exposures in individual cases. This process also enables us to track those cases that have been scheduled for trial and/or mediation. Based on professional judgment and experience in using these litigation management tools and available information about current developments in all our cases, our legal organization regularly assesses the adequacy of current accruals and determines if adjustment of existing accruals, or establishment of new accruals, is required.

Environmental

We are subject to the same numerous international, federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations as other companies in our industry. For a discussion of the most significant of these environmental laws and regulations, including those with associated remediation obligations, see the “Environmental” section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on pages 54–56 of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

We occasionally receive requests for information or notices of potential liability from the EPA and state environmental agencies alleging that we are a potentially responsible party under the CERCLA or an equivalent state statute. On occasion, we also have been made a party to cost recovery litigation by those agencies or by private parties. These requests, notices and lawsuits assert potential liability for remediation costs at various sites that typically are not owned by us, but allegedly contain waste attributable to our past operations. As of September 30, 2023, there were 15 sites around the U.S. in which we were identified as a potentially responsible party under CERCLA and comparable state laws.

For remediation activities in the U.S. and Canada, our consolidated balance sheet included a total environmental accrual of $187 million at September 30, 2023, compared with $182 million at December 31, 2022. We expect to incur a substantial amount of these expenditures within the next 30 years.

Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, and as with other companies engaged in similar businesses, environmental costs and liabilities are inherent concerns in our operations and products, and there can be no assurance that material costs and liabilities will not be incurred. However, we currently do not expect any material adverse effect upon our results of operations or financial position as a result of compliance with current environmental laws and regulations.

See Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors – "We expect to continue to incur substantial capital expenditures and operating costs as a result of our compliance with existing and future environmental laws and regulations" in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 9 for information on environmental litigation.

Climate Change

Continuing political and social attention to the issue of global climate change has resulted in a broad range of proposed or promulgated state, national and international laws and regulations focusing on GHG or methane emissions reduction. These proposed or promulgated laws apply or could apply in countries where we have interests or may have interests in the future. Laws in this field continue to evolve, and while it is not possible to accurately estimate either a timetable for implementation or our future compliance costs relating to implementation, such laws, if enacted, could have a material impact on our results of operations and financial condition. For examples of legislation and precursors for possible regulation that do or could affect our operations, see the “Climate Change” section in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations on pages 56–57 of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Company Response to Climate-Related Risks

Our current Climate Risk Strategy and actions for our oil and gas operations are aligned with the aims of the Paris Agreement while being responsive to shareholder interests for long-term value and competitive returns. It is also aligned with our Triple Mandate to responsibly meet energy transition pathway demand, deliver competitive returns on and of capital and achieve our net-zero operational emissions ambition.

In 2020, we became the first U.S.-based oil and gas company to adopt a Paris-aligned climate-risk strategy with an ambition to become a net-zero company for operational (Scope 1 and 2) emissions by 2050. The objective of our Climate Risk Strategy is to manage climate-related risk, optimize opportunities and better equip the company to respond to evolving investor sentiment, technologies for emissions reduction, alternative energy technologies and uncertainties such as government policies. The strategy sets out our choices around portfolio composition, emissions reductions, targets and incentives, emissions-related technology development, and our climate-related policy and financial sector engagement.

In early 2022, we published our Plan for the Net-Zero Energy Transition (the 'Plan'), to outline how we intend to apply our strategic capabilities and resources to meet the challenges posed by climate change in an economically viable, accountable and actionable way that balances the interests of our stakeholders. Progress on the Plan can be found in our 2022 Sustainability Report.

Key elements of our plan include:

•Maintain strategic flexibility:

◦Build a resilient asset portfolio with a focus on low cost of supply and low GHG intensity to meet transition pathway energy demand.

◦Commit to capital discipline through use of a fully burdened cost of supply, including cost of carbon, as the primary basis for capital allocation.

◦Track the energy transition through a comprehensive scenario planning process to calibrate and understand alternative energy transition pathways and test the resilience of our corporate strategy to climate risk.

•Reduce Scope 1 and 2 emissions:

◦Set targets for emissions over which we have ownership and control, with an ambition to become a net-zero company for Scope 1 and 2 emissions by 2050.

•Address Scope 3 emissions:

◦Advocate for a well-designed, economy-wide price on carbon and engage in development of other policies and legislation to address end-use emissions.

◦Work with our suppliers for alignment on GHG emissions reductions.

•Contribute to the energy transition:

◦Build an attractive LNG portfolio.

◦Evaluate potential investments in emerging energy transition and low-carbon technologies.

Our Plan recognizes the importance of reducing society’s end-use emissions to meet global climate goals. As an upstream producer, we do not control how the commodities we sell into global markets are converted into different energy products or selected for use by consumers. This is why we have consistently taken a prominent role in advocating for a well-designed, economy-wide price on carbon and engaged in development of other policies or legislation that could address end-use emissions. We have also expanded policy advocacy beyond carbon pricing to include regulatory action, such as support for the direct regulation of methane.

See Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors – "Existing and future laws, regulations and internal initiatives relating to global climate changes, such as limitations on GHG emissions may impact or limit our business plans, result in significant expenditures, promote alternative uses of energy or reduce demand for our products" and "Broader investor and societal attention to and efforts to address global climate change may limit who can do business with us or our access to capital and could subject us to litigation" in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and Note 9 for information on climate change litigation.

•Potential failure to obtain, or delays in obtaining, any necessary regulatory approvals for pending or future asset dispositions or acquisitions, or that such approvals may require modification to the terms of the transactions or the operation of our remaining business.

•Potential disruption of our operations as a result of pending or future asset dispositions or acquisitions, including the diversion of management time and attention.

•Our inability to deploy the net proceeds from any asset dispositions that are pending or that we elect to undertake in the future in the manner and timeframe we currently anticipate, if at all.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

Information about market risks for the nine months ended September 30, 2023 does not differ materially from that discussed under Item 7A in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K except for foreign currency exchange risks.

Foreign Currency Exchange Risk

At September 30, 2023, we had outstanding foreign currency exchange forward contracts to buy $4.3 billion CAD at $0.736 against the U.S. dollar in anticipation of our future acquisition of the additional interest in Surmont. The forward contracts have a gross notional value of $4.3 billion CAD. Based on the assumed volatility in the fair value, the net fair value of these foreign currency contracts at September 30, 2023, was a before-tax gain of $36 million. Based on an adverse hypothetical 10 percent change in the September 30, 2023 exchange rate, this would result in an additional before-tax loss of approximately $320 million. The sensitivity analysis is based on changing one assumption while holding all other assumptions constant, which in practice may be unlikely to occur, as changes in some of the assumptions may be correlated. The contracts settled in the fourth quarter of 2023.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures designed to ensure information required to be disclosed in reports we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Act), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. At September 30, 2023, with the participation of our management, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) carried out an evaluation, pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the Act, of ConocoPhillips’ disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Act). Based upon that evaluation, our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer and our Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were operating effectively at September 30, 2023.

In the third quarter of 2023, we began a multi-year implementation of an updated global enterprise resource planning system (ERP). As a result, we have made corresponding changes to our business processes and information systems, updating applicable internal controls over financial reporting where necessary. As the phased implementation of the ERP system progresses, we expect to continue to modify or change certain processes and procedures which may result in further changes to our internal controls over financial reporting.

There have been no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting, as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) of the Act, in the period covered by this report that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. Other Information

Item 1.    Legal Proceedings

ConocoPhillips has elected to use a $1 million threshold for disclosing certain proceedings arising under federal, state or local environmental laws when a governmental authority is a party. ConocoPhillips believes proceedings under this threshold are not material to ConocoPhillips' business and financial condition. Applying this threshold, there are no such proceedings to disclose for the quarter ended September 30, 2023. See Note 9 for information regarding other legal and administrative proceedings.

Item 1A.    Risk Factors

There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in Item 1A of our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

*There were no repurchases of common stock from company employees in connection with the company's broad-based employee incentive plans.

In late 2016, we initiated our current share repurchase program. As of October 2022, we had announced a total authorization to repurchase up to $45 billion of our common stock. As of September 30, 2023, we had repurchased $27.7 billion of shares. Repurchases are made at management’s discretion, at prevailing prices, subject to market conditions and other factors. Except as limited by applicable legal requirements, repurchases may be increased, decreased or discontinued at any time without prior notice. Shares of stock repurchased under the plan are held as treasury shares. See Part I—Item 1A—Risk Factors – “Our ability to execute our capital return program is subject to certain considerations” in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Item 5.    Other Information

Insider Trading Arrangements

During the three-month period ended September 30, 2023, no officer or director of the company adopted or terminated any Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement or non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement.

Note 3—Acquisitions and Dispositions

Acquisitions

Surmont

On October 4, 2023, we completed our acquisition of the remaining 50 percent working interest in Surmont from TotalEnergies EP Canada Ltd. Fair value of consideration for the transaction was approximately $3.0 billion after customary adjustments (CAD $4.1 billion):

Fair value of consideration	Billions of Dollars
Cash paid	$	2.7
Contingent consideration	0.3
Total Consideration	$	3.0

The transaction will be accounted for as a business combination under FASB ASC 805 using the acquisition method, which requires assets acquired and liabilities assumed to be measured at their acquisition date fair values.

The contingent payment arrangement requires additional consideration to be paid to TotalEnergies EP Canada Ltd. up to $0.4 billion CAD ($0.3 billion) over a five-year term. The contingent payments represent $2.0 million for every dollar that WCS pricing exceeds $52 per barrel during the month, subject to certain production targets being achieved. The range of the undiscounted amounts we could pay under the contingent consideration arrangement is between $0 and $0.3 billion. The fair value of the contingent consideration on the acquisition date was $0.3 billion and estimated by applying the income approach.

We are currently in the process of finalizing the initial accounting for the transaction and provisional fair value measurements will be made in the fourth quarter of 2023. We may adjust the measurements in subsequent periods, up to one year from the acquisition date as we identify additional information to complete the necessary analysis.

QatarEnergy LNG NFS(3) (NFS3), formerly Qatar Liquefied Gas Company Limited (12) (QG12)

During 2022, we were awarded a 25 percent interest in NFS3, a new joint venture with QatarEnergy, to participate in the North Field South (NFS) LNG project. Formation of the NFS joint venture, NFS3, closed in June 2023. NFS3 has a 25 percent interest in the NFS project and is reported as an equity method investment in our Europe, Middle East and North Africa segment. See Note 4.

Port Arthur Liquefaction Holdings, LLC (PALNG)

In March 2023, we acquired a 30 percent direct equity investment in PALNG, a joint venture for the development of a large-scale LNG facility for the first phase of the Port Arthur LNG project ("Phase 1"). Sempra PALNG Holdings, LLC owns the remaining 70 percent interest in the joint venture. PALNG is reported as an equity method investment in our Corporate and Other segment. See Note 4.

Planned Acquisition

Australia Pacific LNG Pty Ltd (APLNG)

In March 2023, we announced that, subject to the closing of EIG's transaction with Origin Energy, we intend to purchase up to an additional 2.49 percent shareholding interest in APLNG for $0.5 billion, subject to customary adjustments. Upon closing we will own up to 49.99 percent interest in APLNG. The transaction is expected to close in late 2023 or early 2024, with an effective date of July 1, 2022. Both EIG's transaction with Origin Energy and our shareholder acquisition are subject to regulatory approvals and other customary closing conditions.

Note 6—Debt

In the third quarter of 2023, we issued $2.7 billion in new Notes through our universal shelf registration statement and prospectus supplement. The net proceeds were used to fund the acquisition of the remaining 50 percent working interest in Surmont, which was completed on October 4, 2023. See Note 3. The following Notes were issued:

•5.05% Notes due 2033 with principal of $1.0 billion

•5.55% Notes due 2054 with principal of $1.0 billion

•5.70% Notes due 2063 with principal of $0.7 billion

In the second quarter of 2023, as described further below, we initiated and completed two concurrent transactions as part of our debt refinancing strategy. We issued $1.1 billion in new Notes through our universal shelf registration statement and prospectus supplement and used the proceeds to repurchase $1.1 billion of existing debt.

New Debt Issuance

On May 23, 2023, we issued 5.3% Notes due 2053 with principal of $1.1 billion.

Tender Offers

On May 25, 2023, we repurchased a total of $1,133 million aggregate principal amount of debt as listed below. We paid $33 million below face value to repurchase these debt instruments and recognized a gain on debt extinguishment of $27 million which is included in the "Other expenses" line on our consolidated income statement.

•2.125% Notes due 2024 with principal of $900 million (partial repurchase of $439 million)

•3.350% Notes due 2024 with principal of $426 million (partial repurchase of $160 million)

•2.400% Notes due 2025 with principal of $900 million (partial repurchase of $534 million)

Our debt balance at September 30, 2023 was $19.1 billion, compared with $16.6 billion at December 31, 2022.

Our revolving credit facility provides a total borrowing capacity of $5.5 billion with an expiration date of February 2027. Our revolving credit facility may be used for direct bank borrowings, the issuance of letters of credit totaling up to $500 million, or as support for our commercial paper program. The revolving credit facility is broadly syndicated among financial institutions and does not contain any material adverse change provisions or any covenants requiring maintenance of specified financial ratios or credit ratings. The facility agreement contains a cross-default provision relating to the failure to pay principal or interest on other debt obligations of $200 million or more by ConocoPhillips, or any of its consolidated subsidiaries. The amount of the facility is not subject to redetermination prior to its expiration date.

Credit facility borrowings may bear interest at a margin above the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR). The facility agreement calls for commitment fees on available, but unused, amounts. The facility agreement also contains early termination rights if our current directors or their approved successors cease to be a majority of the Board of Directors.

The revolving credit facility supports our ability to issue up to $5.5 billion of commercial paper. Commercial paper is generally limited to maturities of 90 days and is included in short-term debt on our consolidated balance sheet. With no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit, we had access to $5.5 billion in available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2023. At December 31, 2022, we had no commercial paper outstanding and no direct borrowings or letters of credit issued.

We do not have any ratings triggers on any of our corporate debt that would cause an automatic default, and thereby impact our access to liquidity upon downgrade of our credit ratings. If our credit ratings are downgraded from their current levels, it could increase the cost of corporate debt available to us and restrict our access to the commercial paper markets. If our credit ratings were to deteriorate to a level prohibiting us from accessing the commercial paper market, we would still be able to access funds under our revolving credit facility.

At September 30, 2023, we had $283 million of certain variable rate demand bonds (VRDBs) outstanding with maturities ranging through 2035. The VRDBs are redeemable at the option of the bondholders on any business day. If they are ever redeemed, we have the ability and intent to refinance on a long-term basis; therefore, the VRDBs are included in the “Long-term debt” line on our consolidated balance sheet.

Guarantees

9 Months Ended

Sep. 30, 2023

Guarantees [Abstract]

Guarantees

Note 8—Guarantees

At September 30, 2023, we were liable for certain contingent obligations under various contractual arrangements as described below. We recognize a liability, at inception, for the fair value of our obligation as a guarantor for newly issued or modified guarantees. Unless the carrying amount of the liability is noted below, we have not recognized a liability because the fair value of the obligation is immaterial. In addition, unless otherwise stated, we are not currently performing with any significance under the guarantee and expect future performance to be either immaterial or have only a remote chance of occurrence.

APLNG Guarantees

At September 30, 2023, we had outstanding multiple guarantees in connection with our 47.5 percent ownership interest in APLNG. The following is a description of the guarantees with values calculated utilizing September 2023 exchange rates:

•During the third quarter of 2016, we issued a guarantee to facilitate the withdrawal of our pro-rata portion of the funds in a project finance reserve account. We estimate the remaining term of this guarantee to be seven years. Our maximum exposure under this guarantee is approximately $210 million and may become payable if an enforcement action is commenced by the project finance lenders against APLNG. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of this guarantee was approximately $14 million.

•In conjunction with our original purchase of an ownership interest in APLNG from Origin Energy Limited in October 2008, we agreed to reimburse Origin Energy Limited for our share of the existing contingent liability arising under guarantees of an existing obligation of APLNG to deliver natural gas under several sales agreements. The final guarantee expires in the fourth quarter of 2041. Our maximum potential liability for future payments, or cost of volume delivery, under these guarantees is estimated to be $710 million ($1.2 billion in the event of intentional or reckless breach) and would become payable if APLNG fails to meet its obligations under these agreements and the obligations cannot otherwise be mitigated. Future payments are considered unlikely, as the payments, or cost of volume delivery, would only be triggered if APLNG does not have enough natural gas to meet these sales commitments and if the co-venturers do not make necessary equity contributions into APLNG.

•We have guaranteed the performance of APLNG with regard to certain other contracts executed in connection with the project’s continued development. The guarantees have remaining terms of 13 to 22 years or the life of the venture. Our maximum potential amount of future payments related to these guarantees is approximately $380 million and would become payable if APLNG does not perform. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of these guarantees was approximately $29 million.

QatarEnergy LNG Guarantees

We have guaranteed our portion of certain fiscal and other joint venture obligations as a shareholder in NFE4 and NFS3. These guarantees have an approximate 30-year term with no maximum limit. At September 30, 2023, the carrying value of these guarantees was approximately $14 million.

Other Guarantees

We have other guarantees with maximum future potential payment amounts totaling approximately $590 million, which consist primarily of guarantees of the residual value of leased office buildings and guarantees of the residual value of corporate aircraft. These guarantees have remaining terms of two to four years and would become payable if certain asset values are lower than guaranteed amounts at the end of the lease or contract term, business conditions decline at guaranteed entities, or as a result of nonperformance of contractual terms by guaranteed parties. At September 30, 2023, there was no carrying value associated with these guarantees.

Indemnifications

Over the years, we have entered into agreements to sell ownership interests in certain legal entities, joint ventures and assets that gave rise to qualifying indemnifications. These agreements include indemnifications for taxes and environmental liabilities. The carrying amount recorded for these indemnification obligations at September 30, 2023, was approximately $20 million. Those related to environmental issues have terms that are generally indefinite, and the maximum amounts of future payments are generally unlimited. Although it is reasonably possible future payments may exceed amounts recorded, due to the nature of the indemnifications, it is not possible to make a reasonable estimate of the maximum potential amount of future payments. See Note 9 for additional information about environmental liabilities.

Contingencies and Commitments

Commitments and Contingencies Disclosure [Abstract]

Contingencies and Commitments

Note 9—Contingencies and Commitments

A number of lawsuits involving a variety of claims arising in the ordinary course of business have been filed against ConocoPhillips. We also may be required to remove or mitigate the effects on the environment of the placement, storage, disposal or release of certain chemical, mineral and petroleum substances at various active and inactive sites. We regularly assess the need for accounting recognition or disclosure of these contingencies. In the case of all known contingencies (other than those related to income taxes), we accrue a liability when the loss is probable and the amount is reasonably estimable. If a range of amounts can be reasonably estimated and no amount within the range is a better estimate than any other amount, then the low end of the range is accrued. We do not reduce these liabilities for potential insurance or third-party recoveries. We accrue receivables for insurance or other third-party recoveries when applicable. With respect to income tax-related contingencies, we use a cumulative probability-weighted loss accrual in cases where sustaining a tax position is less than certain.

Based on currently available information, we believe it is remote that future costs related to known contingent liability exposures will exceed current accruals by an amount that would have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial statements. As we learn new facts concerning contingencies, we reassess our position both with respect to accrued liabilities and other potential exposures. Estimates particularly sensitive to future changes include contingent liabilities recorded for environmental remediation, tax and legal matters. Estimated future environmental remediation costs are subject to change due to such factors as the uncertain magnitude of cleanup costs, the unknown time and extent of such remedial actions that may be required, and the determination of our liability in proportion to that of other responsible parties. Estimated future costs related to tax and legal matters are subject to change as events evolve and as additional information becomes available during the administrative and litigation processes.

Environmental

We are subject to international, federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations and record accruals for environmental liabilities based on management’s best estimates. These estimates are based on currently available facts, existing technology, and presently enacted laws and regulations, taking into account stakeholder and business considerations. When measuring environmental liabilities, we also consider our prior experience in remediation of contaminated sites, other companies’ cleanup experience, and data released by the U.S. EPA or other organizations. We consider unasserted claims in our determination of environmental liabilities, and we accrue them in the period they are both probable and reasonably estimable.

Although liability of those potentially responsible for environmental remediation costs is generally joint and several for federal sites and frequently so for other sites, we are usually only one of many companies cited at a particular site. Due to the joint and several liabilities, we could be responsible for all cleanup costs related to any site at which we have been designated as a potentially responsible party. We have been successful to date in sharing cleanup costs with other financially sound companies. Many of the sites at which we are potentially responsible are still under investigation by the EPA or the agency concerned. Prior to actual cleanup, those potentially responsible normally assess the site conditions, apportion responsibility and determine the appropriate remediation. In some instances, we may have no liability or may attain a settlement of liability. Where it appears that other potentially responsible parties may be financially unable to bear their proportional share, we consider this inability in estimating our potential liability, and we adjust our accruals accordingly. As a result of various acquisitions in the past, we assumed certain environmental obligations. Some of these environmental obligations are mitigated by indemnifications made by others for our benefit, and some of the indemnifications are subject to dollar limits and time limits.

We are currently participating in environmental assessments and cleanups at numerous CERCLA and other comparable state and international sites. After an assessment of environmental exposures for cleanup and other costs, we make accruals on an undiscounted basis (except those acquired in a purchase business combination, which we record on a discounted basis) for planned investigation and remediation activities for sites where it is probable future costs will be incurred and these costs can be reasonably estimated. We have not reduced these accruals for possible insurance recoveries.

For remediation activities in the U.S. and Canada, our consolidated balance sheet included a total environmental accrual of $187 million at September 30, 2023, compared with $182 million at December 31, 2022. We expect to incur a substantial amount of these expenditures within the next 30 years. In the future, we may be involved in additional environmental assessments, cleanups and proceedings.

Litigation and Other Contingencies

We are subject to various lawsuits and claims including, but not limited to, matters involving oil and gas royalty and severance tax payments, gas measurement and valuation methods, contract disputes, environmental damages, climate change, personal injury, and property damage. Our primary exposures for such matters relate to alleged royalty and tax underpayments on certain federal, state and privately owned properties, claims of alleged environmental contamination and damages from historic operations, and climate change. We will continue to defend ourselves vigorously in these matters.

Our legal organization applies its knowledge, experience and professional judgment to the specific characteristics of our cases, employing a litigation management process to manage and monitor the legal proceedings against us. Our process facilitates the early evaluation and quantification of potential exposures in individual cases. This process also enables us to track those cases that have been scheduled for trial and/or mediation. Based on professional judgment and experience in using these litigation management tools and available information about current developments in all our cases, our legal organization regularly assesses the adequacy of current accruals and determines if adjustment of existing accruals, or establishment of new accruals, is required.

We have contingent liabilities resulting from throughput agreements with pipeline and processing companies not associated with financing arrangements. Under these agreements, we may be required to provide any such company with additional funds through advances and penalties for fees related to throughput capacity not utilized. In addition, at September 30, 2023, we had performance obligations secured by letters of credit of $398 million (issued as direct bank letters of credit) related to various purchase commitments for materials, supplies, commercial activities and services incident to the ordinary conduct of business.

In 2007, ConocoPhillips was unable to reach agreement with respect to the empresa mixta structure mandated by the Venezuelan government’s Nationalization Decree. As a result, Venezuela’s national oil company, Petróleos de Venezuela, S.A. (PDVSA), or its affiliates, directly assumed control over ConocoPhillips’ interests in the Petrozuata and Hamaca heavy oil ventures and the offshore Corocoro development project. In response to this expropriation, ConocoPhillips initiated international arbitration on November 2, 2007, with the ICSID. On September 3, 2013, an ICSID arbitration tribunal ("Tribunal") held that Venezuela unlawfully expropriated ConocoPhillips’ significant oil investments in June 2007. On January 17, 2017, the Tribunal reconfirmed the decision that the expropriation was unlawful. In March 2019, the Tribunal unanimously ordered the government of Venezuela to pay ConocoPhillips approximately $8.7 billion in compensation for the government’s unlawful expropriation of the company’s investments in Venezuela in 2007. On August 29, 2019, the Tribunal issued a decision rectifying the award and reducing it by approximately $227 million. The award now stands at $8.5 billion plus interest. The government of Venezuela sought annulment of the award, which automatically stayed enforcement of the award. On September 29, 2021, the ICSID annulment committee lifted the stay of enforcement of the award. The annulment proceedings are underway.

In 2014, ConocoPhillips filed a separate and independent arbitration under the rules of the ICC against PDVSA under the contracts that had established the Petrozuata and Hamaca projects. The ICC Tribunal issued an award in April 2018, finding that PDVSA owed ConocoPhillips approximately $2 billion under their agreements in connection with the expropriation of the projects and other pre-expropriation fiscal measures. In August 2018, ConocoPhillips entered into a settlement with PDVSA to recover the full amount of this ICC award, plus interest through the payment period, including initial payments totaling approximately $500 million within a period of 90 days from the time of signing the settlement agreement. The balance of the settlement was to be paid quarterly over a period of four and a half years. Per the settlement, PDVSA recognized the ICC award as a judgment in various jurisdictions, and ConocoPhillips agreed to suspend its legal enforcement actions. ConocoPhillips sent notices of default to PDVSA on October 14 and November 12, 2019, and to date PDVSA has failed to cure its breach. As a result, ConocoPhillips has resumed legal enforcement actions. To date, ConocoPhillips has received approximately $777 million in connection with the ICC award. ConocoPhillips has ensured that the settlement and any actions taken in enforcement thereof meet all appropriate U.S. regulatory requirements, including those related to any applicable sanctions imposed by the U.S. against Venezuela.

In 2016, ConocoPhillips filed a separate and independent arbitration under the rules of the ICC against PDVSA under the contracts that had established the Corocoro Project. On August 2, 2019, the ICC Tribunal awarded ConocoPhillips approximately $33 million plus interest under the Corocoro contracts. ConocoPhillips is seeking recognition and enforcement of the award in various jurisdictions. ConocoPhillips has ensured that all the actions related to the award meet all appropriate U.S. regulatory requirements, including those related to any applicable sanctions imposed by the U.S. against Venezuela.

Beginning in 2017, governmental and other entities in several states/territories in the U.S. have filed lawsuits against oil and gas companies, including ConocoPhillips, seeking compensatory damages and equitable relief to abate alleged climate change impacts. Additional lawsuits with similar allegations are expected to be filed. The legal and factual issues are unprecedented, therefore, there is significant uncertainty about the scope of the claims and alleged damages and any potential impact on the Company’s financial condition. ConocoPhillips believes these lawsuits are factually and legally meritless and are an inappropriate vehicle to address the challenges associated with climate change and will vigorously defend against such lawsuits.

Several Louisiana parishes and the State of Louisiana have filed 43 lawsuits under Louisiana’s State and Local Coastal Resources Management Act (SLCRMA) against oil and gas companies, including ConocoPhillips, seeking compensatory damages for contamination and erosion of the Louisiana coastline allegedly caused by historical oil and gas operations. ConocoPhillips entities are defendants in 22 of the lawsuits and will vigorously defend against them. On October 17, 2022, the Fifth Circuit affirmed remand of the lead case to state court and the subsequent request for rehearing was denied. On February 27, 2023, the Supreme Court denied a certiorari petition from the defendants regarding the Fifth Circuit ruling. Accordingly, the federal district courts have issued remands to state court. Because Plaintiffs’ SLCRMA theories are unprecedented, there is uncertainty about these claims (both as to scope and damages) and we continue to evaluate our exposure in these lawsuits.

In October 2020, the Bureau of Safety and Environmental Enforcement (BSEE) ordered the prior owners of Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Lease P-0166, including ConocoPhillips, to decommission the lease facilities, including two offshore platforms located near Carpinteria, California. This order was sent after the current owner of OCS Lease P-0166 relinquished the lease and abandoned the lease platforms and facilities. BSEE’s order to ConocoPhillips is premised on its connection to Phillips Petroleum Company, a legacy company of ConocoPhillips, which held a historical 25 percent interest in this lease and operated these facilities but sold its interest approximately 30 years ago. ConocoPhillips continues to evaluate its exposure in this matter.

On May 10, 2021, ConocoPhillips filed arbitration under the rules of the Singapore International Arbitration Centre (SIAC) against Santos KOTN Pty Ltd. and Santos Limited for their failure to timely pay the $200 million bonus due upon final investment decision of the Barossa development project under the sale and purchase agreement for the sale of our Australia-West asset and operations. The matter was resolved in April 2023 to our satisfaction.

In July 2021, a federal securities class action was filed against Concho, certain of Concho’s officers, and ConocoPhillips as Concho’s successor in the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas. On October 21, 2021, the court issued an order appointing Utah Retirement Systems and the Construction Laborers Pension Trust for Southern California as lead plaintiffs (Lead Plaintiffs). On January 7, 2022, the Lead Plaintiffs filed their consolidated complaint alleging that Concho made materially false and misleading statements regarding its business and operations in violation of the federal securities laws and seeking unspecified damages, attorneys’ fees, costs, equitable/injunctive relief, and such other relief that may be deemed appropriate. The defendants filed a motion to dismiss the consolidated complaint on March 8, 2022. On June 23, 2023, the court denied defendants’ motion as to most defendants including Concho/ConocoPhillips. We believe the allegations in the action are without merit and are vigorously defending this litigation.

ConocoPhillips is involved in pending disputes with commercial counterparties relating to the propriety of its force majeure notices following Winter Storm Uri in 2021. We believe these claims are without merit and are vigorously defending them.

Long-Term Unconditional Purchase Obligations and Commitments, Including Throughput and Take-or-Pay Agreements

We have certain throughput agreements and take-or-pay agreements in support of financing arrangements. The agreements typically provide for natural gas or crude oil transport and LNG purchase commitments. The fixed and determinable portion of the remaining estimated payments under these various agreements as of September 30, 2023 are: 2023—$2 million; 2024—$7 million; 2025—$7 million; 2026—$7 million; 2027—$7 million; and 2028 and after—$11 billion. Generally, variable components of these obligations include commodity futures prices and inflation rates. Purchases of LNG under these commitments are expected to be offset in the same or approximately same periods by cash received from the related sales transactions.

We use futures, forwards, swaps and options in various markets to meet our customers' needs, capture market opportunities and manage foreign exchange currency risk. Certain of our equity method investments use swaps to manage interest rate risk.

Commodity Derivative Instruments

Our commodity business primarily consists of natural gas, crude oil, bitumen, LNG, NGLs and power.

Commodity derivative instruments are held at fair value on our consolidated balance sheet. Where these balances have the right of setoff, they are presented on a net basis. Related cash flows are recorded as operating activities on our consolidated statement of cash flows. On our consolidated income statement, gains and losses are recognized either on a gross basis if directly related to our physical business or a net basis if held for trading. Gains and losses related to contracts that meet and are designated with the NPNS exception are recognized upon settlement. We generally apply this exception to eligible crude contracts and certain gas contracts. We do not apply hedge accounting for our commodity derivatives.

The following table presents the gross fair values of our commodity derivatives, excluding collateral, on our consolidated balance sheet:

	Millions of Dollars
	September 30 2023		December 31 2022
Assets
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	$	535	1,795
Other assets	127		242
Liabilities

Foreign Currency Exchange Derivatives

In the second quarter of 2023, we entered into foreign exchange forward contracts to buy $5.2 billion CAD at $0.751 against the USD for settlement in September 2023, in anticipation of our planned acquisition of the additional interest in Surmont. For both the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recorded a realized loss of $76 million in the "Foreign currency transaction (gain) loss" line on our consolidated income statement. The related cash flows associated with the loss on derivatives are included in the "Other" line within investing activities on our consolidated statement of cash flows. We subsequently entered into additional foreign exchange forward contracts to buy $4.3 billion CAD at $0.736 against the USD. At September 30, 2023, the forward contracts had a net fair value of $36 million. The derivative asset of $47 million and the derivative liability of $11 million are reported within the "Prepaid expenses and other current assets" and "Other accruals" lines, respectively, on our consolidated balance sheet. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recorded an unrealized gain of $17 million and $36 million, respectively, in the "Foreign currency transaction (gain) loss" line on our consolidated income statement related to these contracts, which settled in the fourth quarter.

Interest Rate Derivative Instruments

During 2023, PALNG executed interest rate swaps that had the effect of converting 60 percent of the projected term loans outstanding to finance the cost of development and construction of Phase 1 from floating to fixed rate. These swaps were designated and qualify for hedge accounting under ASC Topic 815, "Derivatives and Hedging", as a cash flow hedge with changes in the fair value of the designated hedging instrument reported as a component of other comprehensive income and reclassified into earnings in the same periods that the hedged transactions will affect earnings. We recognize our proportionate share of PALNG’s adjustments for other comprehensive income as a change to our equity method investment with corresponding adjustments in equity. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, we recognized an unrealized gain of $46 million in other comprehensive income related to these swaps.

Financial Instruments

We invest in financial instruments with maturities based on our cash forecasts for the various accounts and currency pools we manage. The types of financial instruments in which we currently invest include:

•Time deposits: Interest bearing deposits placed with financial institutions for a predetermined amount of time.

•Demand deposits: Interest bearing deposits placed with financial institutions. Deposited funds can be withdrawn without notice.

•Commercial paper: Unsecured promissory notes issued by a corporation, commercial bank or government agency purchased at a discount, reaching par value at maturity.

•U.S. government or government agency obligations: Securities issued by the U.S. government or U.S. government agencies.

•Foreign government obligations: Securities issued by foreign governments.

•Corporate bonds: Unsecured debt securities issued by corporations.

•Asset-backed securities: Collateralized debt securities.

The following investments are carried on our consolidated balance sheet at cost, plus accrued interest, and the table reflects remaining maturities at September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022:

	Millions of Dollars

As of September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, total unrealized losses for debt securities classified as available for sale with net losses were $14 million and $12 million, respectively. No allowance for credit losses has been recorded on investments in debt securities which are in an unrealized loss position.

For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023, proceeds from sales and redemptions of investments in debt securities classified as available for sale were $258 million and $809 million, respectively. For the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022, proceeds from sales and redemptions of investments in debt securities classified as available for sale were $198 million and $399 million, respectively. Gross realized gains and losses included in earnings from those sales and redemptions were negligible. The cost of securities sold and redeemed is determined using the specific identification method.

Credit Risk

Financial instruments potentially exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash equivalents, short-term investments, long-term investments in debt securities, OTC derivative contracts and trade receivables. Our cash equivalents and short-term investments are placed in high-quality commercial paper, government money market funds, U.S. government and government agency obligations, time deposits with major international banks and financial institutions, high-quality corporate bonds, foreign government obligations and asset-backed securities. Our long-term investments in debt securities are placed in high-quality corporate bonds, asset-backed securities, U.S. government and government agency obligations, and foreign government obligations.

The credit risk from our OTC derivative contracts, such as forwards, swaps and options, derives from the counterparty to the transaction. Individual counterparty exposure is managed within predetermined credit limits and includes the use of cash-call margins when appropriate, thereby reducing the risk of significant nonperformance. We also use futures, swaps and option contracts that have a negligible credit risk because these trades are cleared primarily with an exchange clearinghouse and subject to mandatory margin requirements until settled; however, we are exposed to the credit risk of those exchange brokers for receivables arising from daily margin cash calls, as well as for cash deposited to meet initial margin requirements.

Our trade receivables result primarily from our oil and gas operations and reflect a broad national and international customer base, which limits our exposure to concentrations of credit risk. The majority of these receivables have payment terms of 30 days or less, and we continually monitor this exposure and the creditworthiness of the counterparties. We may require collateral to limit the exposure to loss including letters of credit, prepayments and surety bonds, as well as master netting arrangements to mitigate credit risk with counterparties that both buy from and sell to us, as these agreements permit the amounts owed by us or owed to others to be offset against amounts due to us.

Certain of our derivative instruments contain provisions that require us to post collateral if the derivative exposure exceeds a threshold amount. We have contracts with fixed threshold amounts and other contracts with variable threshold amounts that are contingent on our credit rating. The variable threshold amounts typically decline for lower credit ratings, while both the variable and fixed threshold amounts typically revert to zero if we fall below investment grade. Cash is the primary collateral in all contracts; however, many also permit us to post letters of credit as collateral.

The aggregate fair value of all derivative instruments with such credit risk-related contingent features that were in a liability position at September 30, 2023, and December 31, 2022, was $108 million and $333 million, respectively. For these instruments, no collateral was posted at September 30, 2023, and $42 million of collateral was posted at December 31, 2022. If our credit rating had been downgraded below investment grade at September 30, 2023, we would have been required to post $89 million of additional collateral, either with cash or letters of credit.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

Fair Value Measurement

Note 11—Fair Value Measurement

We carry a portion of our assets and liabilities at fair value that are measured at the reporting date using an exit price (i.e., the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability) and disclosed according to the quality of valuation inputs under the fair value hierarchy.

The classification of an asset or liability is based on the lowest level of input significant to its fair value. Those that are initially classified as Level 3 are subsequently reported as Level 2 when the fair value derived from unobservable inputs is inconsequential to the overall fair value, or if corroborated market data becomes available. Assets and liabilities initially reported as Level 2 are subsequently reported as Level 3 if corroborated market data is no longer available. There were no material transfers into or out of Level 3 during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, nor during the year ended December 31, 2022.

Recurring Fair Value Measurement

Financial assets and liabilities reported at fair value on a recurring basis include our investments in debt securities classified as available for sale and commodity derivatives.

•Level 1 derivative assets and liabilities primarily represent exchange-traded futures and options that are valued using unadjusted prices available from the underlying exchange. Level 1 also includes our investments in U.S. government obligations classified as available for sale debt securities, which are valued using exchange prices.

•Level 2 derivative assets and liabilities primarily represent OTC swaps, options and forward purchase and sale contracts that are valued using adjusted exchange prices, prices provided by brokers or pricing service companies that are all corroborated by market data. Level 2 also includes our investments in debt securities classified as available for sale, including investments in corporate bonds, commercial paper, asset-backed securities, U.S. government agency obligations and foreign government obligations that are valued using pricing provided by brokers or pricing service companies that are corroborated with market data.

•Level 3 derivative assets and liabilities consist of OTC swaps, options and forward purchase and sale contracts where a significant portion of fair value is calculated from underlying market data that is not readily available. The derived value uses industry standard methodologies that may consider the historical relationships among various commodities, modeled market prices, time value, volatility factors and other relevant economic measures. The use of these inputs results in management’s best estimate of fair value. Level 3 activity was not material for all periods presented.

The following table summarizes the fair value hierarchy for gross financial assets and liabilities (i.e., unadjusted where the right of setoff exists for commodity derivatives accounted for at fair value on a recurring basis):

	Millions of Dollars

The following table summarizes those commodity derivative balances subject to the right of setoff as presented on our consolidated balance sheet. We have elected to offset the recognized fair value amounts for multiple derivative instruments executed with the same counterparty in our financial statements when a legal right of setoff exists.

At September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, we did not present any amounts gross on our consolidated balance sheet where we had the right of setoff.

Reported Fair Values of Financial Instruments

We used the following methods and assumptions to estimate the fair value of financial instruments:

•Cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments: The carrying amount reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value. For those investments classified as available for sale debt securities, the carrying amount reported on the balance sheet is fair value.

•Accounts and notes receivable (including long-term and related parties): The carrying amount reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value.

•Investments in debt securities classified as available for sale: The fair value of investments in debt securities categorized as Level 1 in the fair value hierarchy is measured using exchange prices. The fair value of investments in debt securities categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy is measured using pricing provided by brokers or pricing service companies that are corroborated with market data. See Note 10.

•Accounts payable (including related parties) and floating-rate debt: The carrying amount of accounts payable and floating-rate debt reported on the balance sheet approximates fair value.

•Fixed-rate debt: The estimated fair value of fixed-rate debt is measured using prices available from a pricing service that is corroborated by market data; therefore, these liabilities are categorized as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.

•Commercial paper: The carrying amount of our commercial paper instruments approximates fair value and is reported on the balance sheet as short-term debt.

The following table summarizes the net fair value of financial instruments (i.e., adjusted where the right of setoff exists for commodity derivatives):

	Millions of Dollars

Practical Expedients

Typically, our commodity sales contracts are less than 12 months in duration; however, in certain specific cases may extend longer, which may be out to the end of field life. We have long-term commodity sales contracts which use prevailing market prices at the time of delivery, and under these contracts, the market-based variable consideration for each performance obligation (i.e., delivery of commodity) is allocated to each wholly unsatisfied performance obligation within the contract. Accordingly, we have applied the practical expedient allowed in ASC Topic 606 and do not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations or when we expect to recognize revenues that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of the end of the reporting period.

Receivables and Contract Liabilities

Receivables from Contracts with Customers

At September 30, 2023, the “Accounts and notes receivable” line on our consolidated balance sheet included trade receivables of $4,630 million compared with $5,241 million at December 31, 2022, and included both contracts with customers within the scope of ASC Topic 606 and those that are outside the scope of ASC Topic 606. We typically receive payment within 30 days or less (depending on the terms of the invoice) once delivery is made. Revenues that are outside the scope of ASC Topic 606 relate primarily to physical gas sales contracts at market prices for which we do not elect NPNS and are therefore accounted for as a derivative under ASC Topic 815. There is little distinction in the nature of the customer or credit quality of trade receivables associated with gas sold under contracts for which NPNS has not been elected compared to trade receivables where NPNS has been elected.

Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers

We have entered into certain agreements under which we license our proprietary technology, including the Optimized Cascade® process technology, to customers to maximize the efficiency of LNG plants. These agreements typically provide for milestone payments to be made during and after the construction phases of the LNG plant. The payments are not directly related to our performance obligations under the contract and are recorded as deferred revenue to be recognized when the customer is able to benefit from their right to use the applicable licensed technology. Revenue recognized during the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 was immaterial. We expect to recognize the outstanding contract liabilities of $26 million as of September 30, 2023, as revenue during the years 2026, 2028 and 2029.

Segment Reporting [Abstract]

Segment Disclosures and Related Information

Note 19—Segment Disclosures and Related Information

We explore for, produce, transport and market crude oil, bitumen, natural gas, LNG and NGLs on a worldwide basis. We manage our operations through six operating segments, which are primarily defined by geographic region: Alaska; Lower 48; Canada; Europe, Middle East and North Africa; Asia Pacific; and Other International.

Corporate and Other represents income and costs not directly associated with an operating segment, such as most interest income and expense; impacts from certain debt transactions; consolidating tax adjustments; corporate overhead and certain technology activities, including licensing revenues; and unrealized holding gains or losses on equity securities. All cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments are included in Corporate and Other.

We evaluate performance and allocate resources based on net income (loss). Intersegment sales are at prices that approximate market.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

Income Taxes

Note 20—Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate for the three-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 31.8 percent and 39.2 percent, respectively. The change in the effective tax rate for the three-month period ending September 30, 2023 is primarily due to the release of tax reserves and the recognition of a Malaysia tax benefit, described below, and a shift in our mix of income among our tax jurisdictions.

Our effective tax rate for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 was 33.9 percent and 32.9 percent, respectively. The change in our effective tax rate for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 is primarily due to a smaller release of tax reserves in 2023 compared to 2022, partly offset by the recognition of a Malaysia tax benefit, described below, and a shift in our mix of income among our tax jurisdictions.

During the third quarter of 2023, we received legislative approval in the Malaysia Block J to claim certain deepwater tax incentives. As a result, we recorded an income tax benefit of $52 million.

During the third quarter of 2023, the Canada Revenue Agency closed the 2018 audit of one of our Canadian subsidiaries. As a result, we recognized a Canadian tax benefit of $92 million relating to our disposition of certain Canadian assets that was previously offset by a full reserve.

In the first quarter of 2022, the IRS closed the 2017 audit of our U.S. federal income tax return. As a result, we recognized federal and state tax benefits totaling $515 million relating to the recovery of outside tax basis previously offset by a full reserve.

The Company has ongoing income tax audits in a number of jurisdictions. The government agents in charge of these audits regularly request additional time to complete audits, which we generally grant, and conversely occasionally close audits unpredictably. Within the next twelve months, we may have audit periods close that could significantly impact our total unrecognized tax benefits. The amount of such change is not estimable but could be significant when compared with our total unrecognized tax benefits.

In October 2023, the statute of limitations expired with respect to a foreign subsidiary that will result in the recognition of a $203 million tax benefit in the fourth quarter related to the reversal of a tax reserve.

Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]

Basis of Presentation

The interim-period financial information presented in the financial statements included in this report is unaudited and, in the opinion of management, includes all known accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the consolidated financial position of ConocoPhillips, its results of operations and cash flows for such periods. All such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature unless otherwise disclosed. Certain notes and other information have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements included in this report. Therefore, these financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes included in our 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Practical Expedients

Practical Expedients

Typically, our commodity sales contracts are less than 12 months in duration; however, in certain specific cases may extend longer, which may be out to the end of field life. We have long-term commodity sales contracts which use prevailing market prices at the time of delivery, and under these contracts, the market-based variable consideration for each performance obligation (i.e., delivery of commodity) is allocated to each wholly unsatisfied performance obligation within the contract. Accordingly, we have applied the practical expedient allowed in ASC Topic 606 and do not disclose the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations or when we expect to recognize revenues that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) as of the end of the reporting period.

Receivables and Contract Liabilities

Receivables and Contract Liabilities

Receivables from Contracts with Customers

At September 30, 2023, the “Accounts and notes receivable” line on our consolidated balance sheet included trade receivables of $4,630 million compared with $5,241 million at December 31, 2022, and included both contracts with customers within the scope of ASC Topic 606 and those that are outside the scope of ASC Topic 606. We typically receive payment within 30 days or less (depending on the terms of the invoice) once delivery is made. Revenues that are outside the scope of ASC Topic 606 relate primarily to physical gas sales contracts at market prices for which we do not elect NPNS and are therefore accounted for as a derivative under ASC Topic 815. There is little distinction in the nature of the customer or credit quality of trade receivables associated with gas sold under contracts for which NPNS has not been elected compared to trade receivables where NPNS has been elected.

Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers

We have entered into certain agreements under which we license our proprietary technology, including the Optimized Cascade® process technology, to customers to maximize the efficiency of LNG plants. These agreements typically provide for milestone payments to be made during and after the construction phases of the LNG plant. The payments are not directly related to our performance obligations under the contract and are recorded as deferred revenue to be recognized when the customer is able to benefit from their right to use the applicable licensed technology.
