RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

The following discussion of PEMEX’s recent results should be read in conjunction with the annual report on Form 20-F of Petróleos Mexicanos for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (which we refer to as the SEC) on May 8, 2020 (which we refer to as the Form 20-F) and, in particular, “Item 4—Information on the Company” and “Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” in the Form 20-F and with the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of PEMEX included in this report beginning on page F-1. In this document, “PEMEX” refers to Petróleos Mexicanos, the following operating subsidiaries—Pemex Exploración y Producción (Pemex Exploration and Production), Pemex Transformación Industrial (Pemex Industrial Transformation), Pemex Logística (Pemex Logistics), Pemex Fertilizantes (Pemex Fertilizers), and, for periods prior to July 1, 2019, Pemex Perforación y Servicios (Pemex Drilling and Services) and Pemex Etileno (Pemex Ethylene)(which we refer to collectively as the subsidiary entities), and the subsidiary companies listed in Note 5 to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein. Petróleos Mexicanos hereby designates this report on Form 6-K as being incorporated by reference into the Offering Circular dated October 28, 2019, as supplemented on February 10, 2020, relating to its U.S. $112,000,000,000 Medium-Term Notes Program, Series C, due 1 Year or More from Date of Issue.

Exchange Rates

On June 26, 2020, the noon buying rate for cable transfers in New York reported by the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve System was Ps. 22.9460 = U.S. $1.00.

We maintain our consolidated financial statements and accounting records in Mexican pesos (pesos or Ps.). Unless otherwise indicated, we have translated all peso amounts to U.S. dollars in this report, including all convenience translations of our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein, as of and for the three-months ended March 31, 2020, at an exchange rate of Ps. 23.5122 = U.S. $1.00, which is the exchange rate that the Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público (Ministry of Finance and Public Credit) instructed us to use on March 31, 2020, and as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019, at an exchange rate of Ps. 18.8452 = U.S. $1.00, which is the exchange rate that the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit instructed us to use on December 31, 2019. You should not construe these translations from pesos into dollars as actually representing such U.S. dollar amounts or meaning that you could convert such amounts into U.S. dollars at the rates indicated.

Pemex Drilling and Services and Pemex Ethylene

On July 25, 2019, as a result of the merger of Pemex Drilling and Services into Pemex Exploration and Production and of Pemex Ethylene into Pemex Industrial Transformation, the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos issued the Declaratoria de Extinción de Pemex Perforación y Servicios (Declaration of Extinction of Pemex Drilling and Services) and the Declaratoria de Extinción de Pemex Etileno (Declaration of Extinction of Pemex Ethylene), both of which were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation on July 30, 2019 and became effective on July 1, 2019. As of July 1, 2019, all of the assets, liabilities, rights and obligations of Pemex Drilling and Services were assumed by, and transferred to, Pemex Exploration and Production, and Pemex Exploration and Production became, as a matter of Mexican law, the successor to Pemex Drilling and Services. As of July 1, 2019, all of the assets, liabilities, rights and obligations of Pemex Ethylene were assumed by, and transferred to, Pemex Industrial Transformation, and Pemex Industrial Transformation became, as a matter of Mexican law, the successor to Pemex Ethylene. Pemex Drilling and Services and Pemex Ethylene were in turn dissolved effective as of July 1, 2019.

Government Equity Capital Contribution

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2019, the Federal Government of Mexico, which we refer to as the Mexican Government has made equity capital contributions in the amount of Ps. 16.0 billion (U.S. $683.2 million) to Petróleos Mexicanos. From May 1, 2020 to the date hereof, PEMEX received Ps. 20.0 billion, in Certificates of Contribution “A” from the Mexican Government to help improve PEMEX’s financial position.

We used these funds to reduce our overall indebtedness, manage the maturity profile of our debt and improve our financial position. For more information on other recent support measures implemented by the Mexican Government, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources—Overview—Government Support” in the Form 20-F.

Selected Financial Data

The selected financial data as of December 31, 2019 is derived from the audited consolidated financial statements of PEMEX included in the Form 20-F. The selected financial data as of March 31, 2020 and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019 is derived from the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of PEMEX included in this report, which were prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standard (IAS) 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” (IAS 34).

For the year ended December 31, 2019, we recognized a net loss of Ps. 347.9 billion and had negative equity of Ps. 1,997.2 billion. We had negative working capital of Ps. 211.7 billion during the same period. Cash flows from operating activities were Ps. 85.2 billion for the year ended December 31, 2019. As of and for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, we recognized a net loss of Ps. 562.3 billion and had negative equity of Ps. 2,323.5 billion. We had negative working capital of Ps. 240.1 billion as of March 31, 2020. We have disclosed the circumstances that have caused these negative trends and the actions we are taking to face them as noted below.

We also have substantial debt. This debt was incurred mainly to finance investments needed to carry out our operations. Due to our heavy fiscal burden resulting from the payment of hydrocarbon extraction duties and other taxes that we are required to pay to the Mexican Government, the cash flows derived from our operations in recent years have not been sufficient to fund our operations and investment programs. As a result, our indebtedness has increased significantly, and our working capital has decreased. In addition, the recent significant crude oil price drop, which started in March 2020, and the negative economic impact as a result of the current global health crisis caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, have negatively impacted our financial performance. We believe we have the capacity to comply with our payment obligations and our operating continuity; however, our future cash flows are uncertain due to circumstances outside of our control. Any adverse impact from sustained decrease in crude oil prices below the budgeted average price for 2020 and from the slow-down of the economy could have an adverse impact on our results of operation, cash flows and may require us to consider additional actions to address these shortfalls. The combined effect of the above-mentioned events indicates the existence of significant doubt about PEMEX’s ability to continue as a going concern. We continue operating as a going concern for the reasons described herein, including in our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. Accordingly, we have prepared our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements on a going concern basis, which assumes that we can meet our payment obligations.

See “Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Overview” and “Item 5—Operating and Financial Review and Prospects—Liquidity and Capital Resources” in the Form 20-F and Note 18(f) to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein.

In this report we include selected financial data from our statement of financial position as of March 31, 2020 and from our statement of comprehensive income and our statement of cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020. In addition, we include selected financial data from our statement of financial position as of December 31, 2019, as well as the statement of comprehensive income and the statement of cash flows for the three-month period ended March 31, 2019 for comparison purposes.

Results of Operations of Petróleos Mexicanos, the Subsidiary Entities and the Subsidiary Companies—in the first three months of 2020 as compared to the first three months of 2019

Total of Sales

Total sales decreased by 20.3% or Ps. 72.1 billion in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 356.3 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 284.1 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly due to a decrease in the sales volume of petroleum products and the weighted average price of Mexican crude oil, as further discussed below (see “Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic”).

Domestic Sales

Domestic sales decreased by 20.7% in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 199.0 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 157.8 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly due to decreases in the sales prices of diesel, fuel oil and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) and a decrease in the sales volume of gasoline, diesel and fuel oil. Domestic sales of petroleum products decreased by 20.5% in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 170.9 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 135.9 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly due to a 7.9% decrease in the average price of diesel, 44.1% decrease in the average price of fuel oil and a 30.2% decrease in the average price of LPG. The sales volume of diesel, gasoline and fuel oil decreased by 24.6%, 22.2% and 22.6%, respectively, in the first three months of 2020 as compared to the same period of 2019, as a result of decreased demand, which in turn was primarily the result of market share loss due to the entry of new competitors.

Domestic sales of natural gas decreased by 48.1% in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 10.4 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 5.4 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly due to a 55.6% decrease in sales volume.

Domestic sales of LPG decreased by 29.2% in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 10.6 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 7.5 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly as a result of 30.2% decrease in its average sales price.

Export Sales

Export sales decreased by 19.4% in peso terms in the first three months of 2020 (with U.S. dollar-denominated export revenues translated to pesos at the exchange rate on the date of the corresponding export sale) from Ps. 155.2 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 125.1 billion in the first three months of 2020. This decrease was mainly due to a 26.8% decrease in the weighted average Mexican export crude oil price in the first three months of 2020, compared to the first three months of 2019. From January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2019, the weighted average Mexican export crude oil price was U.S. $55.85 per barrel, compared to U.S. $40.91 per barrel in the same period of 2020.

Crude oil and condensate sales decreased by 16.7%, from Ps. 113.9 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 94.9 billion in the first three months of 2020, and in U.S. dollar terms decreased by 29.5%, from U.S. $6.1 billion in the first three months of 2019 to U.S. $4.3 billion in the first three months of 2020. The weighted average price per barrel of crude oil exports in the first three months of 2020 was U.S. $40.91, a 26.8% decrease as compared to the weighted average price of U.S. $55.85 in the first three months of 2019.

Export sales of petroleum products, including products derived from natural gas and natural gas liquids decreased by 20.2%, from Ps. 8.9 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 7.1 billion in the first three months of 2020, primarily due to a decreases in the average sales price of fuel oil and sales volume of naphtha.

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the average exchange rate of the U.S. dollar against the peso was Ps. 19.8655 to U.S. $1.00, compared to Ps. 19.2198 to U.S. $1.00 during the same period of 2019, representing a depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar of Ps. 0.6457 (or 3.36%), which had a favorable effect on our export sales of Ps. 18.9 billion.

Services Income

Services income decreased by 42.9% in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 2.1 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 1.2 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly as a result of a decrease in transportation services provided by Pemex Industrial Transformation and Pemex Logistics to third parties.

(Reversal) Impairment of Wells, Pipelines, Properties, Plant and Equipment, Net

Net reversal of impairment of wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment increased by Ps. 31.5 billion in the first three months of 2020 as compared to the first three months of 2019, from a net impairment of Ps. 5.2 billion as of March 31, 2019 to recognition of a net reversal of impairment of Ps. 26.3 billion as of March 31, 2020. This net reversal of impairment was primarily due to (1) a net reversal of impairment of Ps. 22.0 billion in the cash generating units (CGUs) of Pemex Exploration and Production, mainly due to an increase in the volume production profile of crude oil, which increases future cash flows and the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against the peso and (2) a net reversal of impairment of Ps. 4.4 billion in the CGU of Pemex Industrial Transformation, mainly due to an increase in the processing of crude oil in the refineries, which generates additional future net cash flows from its CGUs.

 

7


Cost of Sales

Cost of sales decreased by 5.3%, from Ps. 256.7 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 243.1 billion in the first three months of 2020. This decrease was mainly due to (1) a decrease of Ps. 11.8 billion in import purchases, primarily Magna gasoline, diesel and natural gas, due to a decrease in the volume of imports to meet demand in the domestic market, (2) a Ps. 3.7 billion decrease in taxes and duties on exploration and extraction of hydrocarbons resulting from lower average sales prices in the first three months of 2020 compared to the first three months of 2019 and (3) a decrease of Ps. 4.9 billion in inventory variation and Ps. 1.0 billion in amortization of other assets. This decrease was partially offset by a Ps. 8.2 billion increase in operating expenses.

General Expenses

Total general expenses (including distribution, transportation and sale expenses and administrative expenses) increased by 1.3%, from Ps. 37.8 billion for the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 38.3 billion for the first three months of 2020, mainly due to an increase in amortization of rights of use assets.

Other Revenues, Net

Other revenues, net, decreased by Ps. 2.9 billion in the first three months of 2020, from net revenues of Ps. 4.0 billion in the first three months of 2019 to net revenues of Ps. 1.1 billion in the first three months of 2020. This decrease was mainly due to a decrease of Ps. 2.5 billion in income from insurance recovery as compared to the same period of 2019.

Financing Income

Financing income increased by Ps. 1.8 billion in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 3.9 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 5.7 billion in the first three months of 2020. This increase was mainly due to effects from the liability management transactions conducted in 2020.

Financing Cost

Financing cost increased by Ps. 12.8 billion in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 29.8 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 42.6 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly due to an increase in interest expenses in the first three months of 2020 as a result of the effects of depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar.

Derivative Financial Instruments (Cost), Net

Derivative financial instruments (cost), net, increased by Ps. 7.7 billion, from a derivative financial instruments cost of Ps. 8.2 billion in the first three months of 2019 to a derivative financial instruments cost of Ps. 25.9 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly as a result of the heightened appreciation of the U.S. dollar against other currencies in which our debt is denominated.

Foreign Exchange Gain (Loss), Net

A substantial portion of our debt (86.8%) as of March 31, 2020 is denominated in foreign currency. Foreign exchange income decreased by Ps. 499.6 billion, from a foreign exchange income of Ps. 30.4 billion in the first three months of 2019 to a foreign exchange loss of Ps. 469.2 billion in the first three months of 2020, primarily as a result of the depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar for the first three months of 2020 as compared to the first three months of 2019. The value of the peso in U.S. dollar terms appreciated by 1.5% from Ps. 19.6829 to U.S. $1.00 as of December 31, 2018 to Ps. 19.3793 to U.S. $1.00 as of March 31, 2019 as compared to a 24.8% depreciation of the peso in U.S. dollar terms from Ps. 18.8452 to U.S. $1.00 as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 23.5122 to U.S. $1.00 as of March 31, 2020.

Duties, Taxes and Other

The Derecho por la Utilidad Compartida (Profit-sharing Duty) and other duties and taxes paid decreased by 34.5% in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 92.4 billion in the first three months of 2019 to Ps. 60.5 billion in the first three months of 2020, mainly due to the 26.8% decrease in the weighted average export price of Mexican crude oil, from U.S. $55.85 per barrel in the first three months of 2019 to U.S. $40.91 per barrel in the first three months of 2020, as well as a decrease in the applicable tax rate for 2020, which is 58% for 2020 as compared to 65% for 2019. Duties and taxes represented 21.3% and 25.9% of total sales in the first three months of 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Net (Loss)

In the first three months of 2020, we had a net loss of Ps. 562.3 billion, as compared to a net loss of Ps. 35.7 billion in the first three months of 2019.

This increase in net loss was mainly the result of (1) a Ps. 72.1 billion decrease in total sales, mainly due to decreases in the sales volume of petroleum products and the weighted average price of Mexican crude oil exports, (2) a Ps. 499.6 billion increase in foreign exchange loss, mainly due to the depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar, (3) a Ps. 12.8 billion increase in financing cost and (4) a Ps. 17.7 billion increase in derivative financial instruments cost.

These effects were partially offset by (1) a Ps. 13.6 billion decrease in the cost of sales, mainly due to a decrease in volume of purchases for resale of gasoline, diesel and natural gas imports, (2) a Ps. 31.5 billion increase in net reversal of impairment of wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment and (3) a Ps. 31.9 billion decrease in taxes and duties, mainly due to a decreases in hydrocarbon production and prices, as well as a decrease in the tax rate.

Other Comprehensive Results

In the first three months of 2020, we reported a net gain of Ps. 219.9 billion in other comprehensive results as compared to a gain of Ps. 0.6 billion in the first three months of 2019, mainly due to a decrease in the employee benefits reserve as a result of a higher discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets used in the actuarial computation method from 7.5% at December 31, 2019 to 8.44% at March 31, 2020.

Changes in the Statement of Financial Position of Petróleos Mexicanos, the Subsidiary Entities and the Subsidiary Companies—from December 31, 2019 to March 31, 2020

Assets

Cash and cash equivalents decreased by Ps. 3.5 billion, or 5.8%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 60.6 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 57.1 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to an increase in payments to suppliers and contractors and payments on our debt instruments and taxes.

Accounts receivable, net, decreased by Ps. 16.9 billion, or 9.4%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 180.5 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 163.6 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to a Ps. 29.7 billion decrease in accounts receivable from sales to domestic and export customers, partially offset by a Ps. 12.8 billion increase in other accounts receivable from taxes to be recovered.

The current portion of our promissory notes increased by Ps. 1.0 billion, or 20.4%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 4.9 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 5.9 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to the valuation of promissory notes at March 31, 2020.

Wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment, net, increased by Ps. 24.7 billion, or 2.0%, in the first three months of 2020 from Ps. 1,211.7 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 1,236.5 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to (1) Ps. 34.2 billion of acquisitions of wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment and (2) the recognition of a reversal of impairment of Ps. 26.3 billion. This increase was partially offset by (1) Ps. 34.1 billion in depreciation and (2) Ps. 1.7 billion of net disposals of wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment. See Note 12 to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein.

Rights of use, net, decreased by Ps. 3.6 billion, or 5.1%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 70.8 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 67.2 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to the amortization of the period.

Derivative financial instruments increased by Ps. 7.4 billion in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 11.5 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 18.9 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to the increase in the fair value of favorable crude oil options, which was partially offset by the negative effect of the fair value of cross-currency swaps caused by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against most of the currencies for which we are covered.

Liabilities

Total debt, including accrued interest, increased by Ps. 480.8 billion, or 24.2%, from Ps. 1,983.2 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 2,464.0 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to the impact of the 24.8% depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar in the first three months of 2020.

Liabilities to suppliers and contractors decreased by Ps. 27.5 billion, or 13.2%, from Ps. 208.0 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 180.5 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to payments made in the period.

Taxes and duties payable decreased by Ps. 21.5 billion, or 42.5%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 50.7 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 29.2 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to a Ps. 21.4 billion decrease in the Profit-sharing Duty.

Derivative financial instruments liabilities increased by Ps. 14.3 billion, or 86.1%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 16.6 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 30.9 billion as of March 31, 2020. This increase was mainly due to the increase in the fair value of cross-currency swaps caused by the appreciation of the U.S. dollar against most of the currencies for which we are covered.

Employee benefits liabilities decreased by Ps. 179.6 billion, or 12.3%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 1,456.8 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 1,277.2 billion as of March 31, 2020. This decrease was mainly due to the increase in the discount rate and expected rate of return on plan assets used in the actuarial computation method from 7.5% in 2019 to 8.44% in 2020.

Leases increased by Ps. 9.3 billion, or 85.0%, in the first three months of 2020, from Ps. 68.1 billion as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 77.4 billion as of March 31, 2020, mainly due to the impact of the 24.8% depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar in the first three months of 2020.

Equity (Deficit), Net

Deficit, net, increased by Ps. 326.3 billion, or 16.3%, from a deficit of Ps. 1,997.2 billion as of December 31, 2019 to a deficit of Ps. 2,323.5 billion as of March 31, 2020. This increase in deficit was mainly due to Ps. 562.3 billion in net loss, partially offset by (1) Ps. 219.9 billion in other comprehensive results, including employee benefits actuarial gains of Ps. 191.1 billion and currency translation effect gain of Ps. 28.8 billion, and (2) a Ps. 16.1 billion increase in Certificates of Contribution “A” from the Mexican Government as of March 31, 2020.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

During the first three months of 2020, our liquidity position was adversely affected mainly due (1) the increase in short-term debt caused by the transfer from long-term debt, (2) the reduction in the value of the inventories derived from the decrease in oil prices in the first quarter of 2020 compared to oil prices in the same period of 2019 and (3) the increase in other accounts receivable, mainly taxes to be recovered and prepaid taxes. This negative impact to our liquidity position was partially offset by (1) a decrease in the balance of accounts payable to suppliers in the first three months of 2020 due to payments made by us, (2) payments made by customers and (3) a decrease in income taxes and duties payable.

Our principal uses of new funds in the first three months of 2020 were primarily the payment of debt maturities due during the same period and strengthening our cash flow through the actions listed below. We met the requirement to pay such debt maturities primarily with cash provided by cash flows from borrowings, which amounted to Ps. 383.2 billion. During the first three months of 2020, our net cash flow used in operating activities amounted to Ps. 25.3 billion and our net cash flow used in investing activities amounted Ps. 24.0 billion, which included cash flow from investing activities of Ps. 3.7 billion (other notes receivable) and cash flow used in investing activities of Ps. 27.7 billion, mainly used in the acquisition of wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment and intangible assets.

For 2020, we forecasted a 77.5% increase in capital expenditures as compared to the amounts spent on capital expenditures in 2019. Our budget for 2020 includes a total of Ps. 332.6 billion for capital expenditures, including Ps. 94.1 billion for non-capitalizable maintenance and Ps. 41.3 billion for the construction of our new Dos Bocas refinery, led by PTI Infraestructura de Desarrollo, S.A. de C.V. Our net capital expenditures budget is Ps. 197.2 billion. We expect to direct Ps. 175.7 billion (or 89.1%) to exploration and production programs in 2020. This investment in exploration and production activities reflects our focus on maximizing the potential of our hydrocarbon reserves and our most productive projects. As of March 31, 2020, we have applied Ps. 66.6 billion to exploration and production activities. In addition, in 2020 we expect to direct Ps. 17.0 billion (or 8.6%) to our industrial transformation segment. As of March 31, 2020, we have applied Ps. 6.3 billion to our industrial transformation activities. We continuously review our capital expenditures portfolio in accordance with our current and future business plans.

Given the recent and ongoing impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business and the global economy, our management expects to propose amendments to our 2020 budget to the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos. These amendments are expected to reflect the anticipated impact on our cash flows of the following developments: decreases in the prices and production of crude oil and derivatives, additional support from the Mexican Government in the form of contributions and tax benefits and changes to the U.S. dollar-peso exchange rate. The amendments are expected to represent an approximately Ps. 5.0 billion reduction in operating expenses and a Ps. 40.5 billion reduction in production capital expenditures (including non-capitalizable maintenance expenses). Once the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos approves the amendment budget, the amended budget will be required to be submitted to the Ministry of Finance and Public Credit for approval pursuant to its authority over our financial balance goal for the fiscal year.

As of March 31, 2020, we owed our suppliers Ps. 180.5 billion, as compared to Ps. 208.0 billion as of December 31, 2019. As a result of the decrease in these obligations, we believe net cash flows from our operating and financing activities, together with available cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to meet our working capital, debt service and capital expenditure requirements in 2020.

The Ley de Ingresos de la Federación para el Ejercicio Fiscal de 2020 (the Federal Revenue Law for the Fiscal Year 2020) applicable to us as of January 1, 2020 provides for the incurrence of up to Ps. 34.8 billion of net indebtedness through a combination of domestic and international capital markets offerings and borrowings from domestic and international financial institutions.

We have a substantial amount of debt. Due to our heavy tax burden, our cash flow from operations in recent years has not been sufficient to fund our capital expenditures and other expenses and, accordingly, our debt has significantly increased and our working capital has deteriorated. Relatively low oil prices and declining production have also had a negative impact on our ability to generate positive cash flows, which, together with our heavy tax burden, has further exacerbated our ability to fund our capital expenditures and other expenses. Despite the relatively low and fluctuating oil prices and our heavy tax burden, our cash flow from operations for the three month period ended March 31, 2020, together with our funds from financing activities, was sufficient to fund our capital expenditures and other expenses. We expect that net cash flows from our operations and financing activities will also be sufficient to meet our working capital requirements, debt service and capital expenditures for 2020. We continue to evaluate our capital expenditures needs and opportunities in light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

As of March 31, 2020, our total indebtedness, including accrued interest, was Ps. 2,464.0 billion (U.S. $104.8 billion), in nominal terms, which represents a 24.2% decrease in peso terms compared to our total indebtedness, including accrued interest, of Ps. 1,983.2 billion (U.S. $105.2 billion) as of December 31, 2019. As of March 31, 2020, 22.8% of our existing debt, or Ps. 561.9 billion (U.S. $23.9 billion), including accrued interest, is scheduled to mature in the next three years. Our working capital deteriorated from a negative working capital of Ps. 211.7 billion (U.S. $11.2 billion) as of December 31, 2019 to a negative working capital of Ps. 240.1 billion (U.S. $10.2 billion) as of March 31, 2020. Our level of debt may increase further in the short or medium term, as a result of new financing activities or future depreciation of the peso as compared to the U.S. dollar, and may have an adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations and liquidity position. To service our debt, we have relied and may continue to rely on a combination of cash flow from operations, drawdowns under our available credit facilities and refinancing our existing indebtedness. In addition, we are taking actions to improve our financial position, as discussed above.

Certain rating agencies have expressed concerns regarding: (1) our heavy tax burden; (2) the total amount of our debt and the ratio of our debt to our proven reserves; (3) the significant increase in our indebtedness over the last several years; (4) our negative free cash flow; (5) the natural decline of certain of our oil fields and lower quality of crude oil; (6) our substantial unfunded reserve for retirement pensions and seniority premiums, which was equal to Ps. 1,456.8 billion (U.S. $77.3 billion) as of December 31, 2019; (7) the persistence of our operating expenses notwithstanding declines in oil prices; (8) our rising per barrel lifting costs; (9) the possibility that our budget for capital expenditures will be insufficient to maintain and exploit reserves, particularly given our high investment needs to maintain production and replenish reserves; (10) the possibility that the Mexican Government will not be able to continue providing the support it has provided in recent years; and (11) the involvement of the Mexican Government in our strategy, financing and management. In particular, in light of the recent downturn seen in the oil and gas industry beginning in the first quarter of 2020, certain ratings agencies have expressed concern that we lack flexibility to navigate the downturn and to finance our capital investment needs in the face of low cash flow generation and adverse financing conditions.

Ratings address our creditworthiness and the likelihood of timely payment of our long-term debt securities. Ratings are not a recommendation to purchase, hold or sell securities and may be changed, suspended or withdrawn at any time. Our current ratings and the rating outlooks depend, in part, on economic conditions and other factors that affect credit risk and are outside our control, as well as assessments of the creditworthiness of Mexico. Certain ratings agencies have recently lowered Mexico’s credit ratings and their assessment of Mexico’s creditworthiness has and may further affect our credit ratings.

Ratings actions related to us that occurred in 2020 include the following:

 

   

On March 26, 2020, Standard & Poor’s lowered our credit ratings for foreign currency long term issues and for local currency long term issues from BBB+ and A- to BBB and BBB+, respectively, maintaining a negative credit outlook on a global scale.

 

   

On April 1, 2020, HR Ratings affirmed our local credit rating at HR AAA with a stable outlook and lowered our global credit ratings to HR BBB+(G) with a negative outlook.

 

   

On April 3, 2020, Fitch Ratings lowered our credit rating from BB+ to BB in both global local and global foreign currency with a negative outlook.

 

   

On April 17, 2020, Fitch Ratings lowered our international foreign and local currency long-term ratings from BB to BB-. Fitch Ratings also revised the outlook from negative to stable.

 

   

On April 17, 2020, Moody’s lowered our credit ratings from Baa3 to Ba2, maintaining a negative credit outlook.

 

   

On April 21, 2020, Moody’s lowered our credit ratings of our outstanding notes, as well as credit ratings based on our guarantee to A2.mx/Ba2 from Aa3.mx/Baa3. Moody’s also downgraded our short-term local scale rating to MX-2 from MX-1.

These downgrades of our credit ratings, particularly those below investment grade, may have material adverse consequences on our ability to access the financial markets and/or our cost of financing. In turn, this could significantly harm our ability to meet our existing obligations, financial condition and results of operations.

If such constraints occur at a time when our cash flow from operations is less than the resources necessary to meet our debt service obligations, in order to provide additional liquidity to our operations, we could be forced to further reduce our planned capital expenditures, implement further austerity measures and/or utilize alternative financing mechanisms that do not constitute public debt. A reduction in our capital expenditure program could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations. Additionally, such measures may not be sufficient to permit us to meet our obligations.

Going Concern

Our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that we can meet our payment obligations as they become due. As we describe in Notes 2(b) and 18(f) to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein, there are certain conditions that have generated important uncertainty and significant doubts concerning our ability to continue operating as a going concern. We discuss the circumstances that have caused these negative trends, as well our plans in regard to these matters in Notes 2(b) and 18(f) to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein. We intend to continue taking actions to improve our results of operations, capital expenditure plans and financial condition. We continue operating as a going concern, and our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Cash Flows from Operating, Investing and Financing Activities

During the first three months of 2020, net funds used in operating activities totaled Ps. 25.3 billion, as compared to Ps. 22.1 billion in the first three months of 2019. During the first three months of 2020, our net cash flows used in investing activities totaled Ps. 24.0 billion, as compared to Ps. 9.6 billion in the first three months of 2019. During the first three months of 2020, new financings totaled Ps. 383.2 billion and payments of principal and interest totaled Ps. 375.7 billion, as compared to Ps. 203.1 billion and Ps. 218.6 billion, respectively, during the first three months of 2019. During the first three months of 2020, we applied net funds of Ps. 27.0 billion to acquisitions of wells, pipelines, properties, plant and equipment, as compared to Ps. 12.6 billion in the first three months of 2019.

As of March 31, 2020 our cash and cash equivalents totaled Ps. 57.1 billion, as compared to Ps. 60.6 billion as of December 31, 2019. See Note 8 to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein for more information about our cash and cash equivalents.

Crude oil production increased by 3.9% in the first three months of 2020, from 1,674 thousand barrels per day in the first three months of 2019 to 1,739 thousand barrels per day in the first three months of 2020. This increase was mainly due to:

 

   

a 0.4% increase in production of extra light crude oil, primarily due to an increase in the production of the Xanab, Ek and Balam fields; and

 

   

a 6.3% increase in production of heavy crude oil, primarily due to development activities and a deceleration in the decline in field production, primarily of the Ayatsil field;

Partially offset by:

 

   

a 1.7% reduction in production of light crude oil, primarily due to oil-water contact at Kax, Homol and Sinán fields and a natural decline in production of mature fields.

During the first three months of 2020, natural gas production increased by 1.9%, from 3,668 million cubic feet per day in the first three months of 2019 to 3,738 million cubic feet per day in the same period of 2020. This increase in production was primarily a result of:

 

   

a 2.7% increase in associated gas production, primarily due to the increase in production of the Ku-Maloob-Zaap, Yaxché and Chuc business units;

Partially offset by:

 

   

a 0.4% decrease in non-associated gas production, mainly due to an accelerated decline in production at certain fields of the Burgos, Crudo Ligero Marino and Veracruz business units.

Production of petroleum products decreased by 2.0% in the first three months of 2020, from 573 thousand barrels per day in the first three months of 2019 to 562 thousand barrels per day in the first three months of 2020. This decline is primarily explained due to the fact that during the six months ended March 31, 2020, crude oil processing has been limited because of the repair and maintenance program ongoing at our refineries.

During the first three months of 2020, dry gas production decreased by 3.1%, as compared to the same period of 2019, due to lower gas production of the Cactus and La Venta gas processing complexes.

During the first three months of 2020, the production of petrochemical products decreased by 55 thousand tons, a 11.5% decrease as compared to the first three months of 2019. This decrease is mainly explained by:

 

   

a 58 thousand ton decrease in the production of ethane derivatives, mainly due to (1) a 32 thousand ton decrease in linear low density polyethylene production, due to the fact that the plant has operated intermittently because of operational problems, (2) a 19 thousand ton decrease in ethylene glycol production and (3) a 6 thousand ton decrease in ethylene oxide production, mainly due to a decrease in sales;

 

   

a 21 thousand ton decrease in propylene production, mainly due to lower oil processing levels of the Salina Cruz refinery; and

 

   

a 3 thousand ton reduction in sulfur production, mainly due to the lower production of the Cactus processing complex, due to the shutdown of two sulfur recovery plants for corrective maintenance;

Partially offset by:

 

   

a 16 thousand ton increase in aromatics and derivatives chain production, mainly due to the stable operation of the aromatics train of the Cangrejera petrochemical complex; and

 

   

an 18 thousand ton increase in ammonia production due to the restart of ammonia production at our Cosoleacaque plant VI in February 2020.

Impacts of the COVID-19 Pandemic

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared the COVID-19 outbreak a pandemic. Governments across the world continue to institute measures to address the pandemic, including mandatory quarantines, social distancing guidelines, travel restrictions and declaration of health emergencies. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic have led to a worldwide economic slowdown, and as a result there has been a decrease in global demand for crude oil and derivatives. For more information related to the decline in international crude oil prices and the decrease in the demand of petroleum products, see Note 20 to our unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein.

As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, on March 24, 2020 the Mexican Government, through the Secretaría de Salud (Mexican Ministry of Health), implemented actions to protect against COVID-19. Some of these actions include, among others, issuing directives to avoid places of work, crowded areas, public places or unnecessary social activities during this time. These preventative measures have caused a decrease in demand of certain goods and services, including petroleum products.

Likewise, in line with the recommendations of the WHO and the Ministry of Health, we announced measures to preserve the health of our employees and support the prevention of contagion in our administrative and operational areas, such as limiting our workforce’s access to our facilities, implementing alternating shifts and allowing a portion of our workforce to work remotely. In addition, we have implemented sanitizing measures to disinfect our facilities and the use of thermal cameras and other special equipment to monitor infection risks. Certain of our operations therefore remain active as of the date hereof.

In order to address the drop in crude oil prices that began in March 2020, on April 12, 2020, the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and other non-OPEC oil exporting countries, including, among others, Mexico and Russia, reached an agreement to reduce world crude oil supply. Pursuant to this agreement, these countries, which are known as OPEC+, agreed to reduce their overall crude oil production by 9.7 million barrels per day from May 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020, by 7.7 million barrels per day from July 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 and by 5.8 million barrels per day from January 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022. In particular, Mexico agreed, and has begun, to reduce its crude oil production by 100,000 barrels per day for a period of two months beginning on May 1, 2020. For more information relating to the production agreement, see “Item 3—Risk Factors Related to our Relationship with the Mexican Government—The Mexican Government has entered into agreements with other nations to limit production” and “Item 4—Trade Regulation, Export Agreements and Production Agreements” in the Form 20-F.

On April 21, 2020, the Mexican Government, through a Presidential decree, granted us a reduction in our tax burden equal to Ps. 65.0 billion for 2020, which consists of a fiscal credit applicable to the Profit-sharing Duty up to such amount. This decrease in the Profit-sharing Duty is incremental to the one resulting from the decrease of the rate from 65% to 58% in 2020 in accordance with amendments to the Ley de Ingresos de la Federación para el Ejercicio Fiscal de 2020 (Revenue Law for 2020).

As a result of the abrupt reduction in the demand and prices of oil and fuel, we adopted a set of measures aiming at reducing costs, postponing cash outflows and optimizing our working capital, in order to ensure our financial strength and resilience of its businesses. The main measures are:

 

   

reducing our capital expenditures;

 

   

decreasing operating expenses that do not hazard our operating capabilities;

 

   

decreasing non-strategic projects and focusing instead on more profitable ones; and

 

   

developing and implementing alternative financing mechanisms that do not constitute public debt.

For further information regarding these measures, see Note 20 to the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein.

The ongoing effects on our business and our financial performance of the COVID-19 pandemic remain highly uncertain. If the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues for an extended period of time, it could adversely affect our ability to operate our business in the manner and on the timelines previously planned. Further, it could have accounting consequences, such as decreases in our revenues and the value of our inventories, foreign exchange losses, impairments of fixed assets, and affect our ability to operate effective internal control over financial reporting. For further information regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us, see “Item 3–—Risk Factors Related to Our Operations—Crude oil and natural gas prices are volatile and low crude oil and natural gas prices adversely affect our income and cash flows and the amount of hydrocarbon reserves that we have the right to extract and sell”, “Item 3––Risk Factors—The outbreak of COVID-19 has had and may continue to have an adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition” and “Item 5—Overview” in the Form 20-F.

Industrial Transformation

Dos Bocas Refinery

On December 7, 2018, the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos, in accordance with resolution CA-161/2018, authorized the construction of a new refinery in Dos Bocas in the state of Tabasco as part of our institutional strategy plan. The project is estimated to add 340 thousand barrels per day of refined Maya oil, which we expect would, in turn, increase our production of gasoline and diesel by at least 290 thousand barrels per day. This project is supported by the Mexican Government, which has announced that a goal of constructing this refinery is to decrease Mexico’s reliance on imported energy resources by increasing our refining capacity and distillates production.

On April 23, 2020, the Mexican Government published in the Official Gazette of the Federation the Decreto por el que se establecen las medidas de austeridad que deberán observar las dependencias y entidades de la Administración Pública Federal bajo los criterios que en el mismo se indican. (Decree establishing the austerity measures to be observed by the dependencies and entities of the Federal Public Administration under the criteria indicated herein). This decree sets forth several actions to face the economic impacts caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. One of these actions is to postpone actions and expenses of the Mexican Government, with the exception of 38 priority programs. The construction of our new refinery in Dos Bocas is considered a priority program, and is therefore not postponed at this time.

Directors and Executive Officers

Effective April 1, 2020, Mr. Jorge Luis Basaldúa Ramos was appointed as Acting Director General of Pemex Industrial Transformation, replacing Mr. Miguel Gerardo Breceda Lapeyre.

Subsidiary Companies

In May 2020, our subsidiary company P.M.I. Holdings, B.V. (PMI HBV), shareholder of Hijos de J. Barreras, S.A. (HJ BARRERAS), transferred to Cruise Yacht Yard Co, Ltd, a company belonging to the ship-owner of the ship in construction by HJ BARRERAS, its corporate and economic rights corresponding to its 51% share in HJ BARRERAS (through a usufruct) along with other agreements, in exchange for a total amount of € 5.1 million (Ps. 125.5 million). Hence, PMI HBV no longer controls HJ BARRERAS, and HJ BARRERAS is no longer consolidated in our consolidated financial statements as of May 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, HJ BARRERAS’ total assets amounted to Ps. 1,535.5 million and Ps. 1,558.0, respectively, total liabilities amounted to Ps. 3,001.0 million and Ps. 2,945.3 million, respectively, and negative equity (of which 49% was noncontrolling interest) amounted to Ps. (1,465.5 million) and Ps. (1,387.3 million), respectively. The amount of negative equity as of April 30, 2020 includes Ps. 224.5 million of losses during the four-month period then ended (of which 49% was non-controlling interest). This transaction resulted in a profit of Ps. 833.0 million in our consolidated results of operations.

PETRÓLEOS MEXICANOS, PRODUCTIVE STATE-OWNED SUBSIDIARIES AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF MARCH 31, 2020 AND DECEMBER 31, 2019 AND

FOR THE THREE-MONTH PERIODS ENDED MARCH 31, 2020 AND 2019

( Figures stated in thousands, except as noted )

NOTE 1. STRUCTURE AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS OF PETRÓLEOS MEXICANOS, SUBSIDIARY ENTITIES AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

Petróleos Mexicanos was created by a decree issued by the Mexican Congress on June 7, 1938. The decree was published in the Diario Oficial de la Federación (Official Gazette of the Federation) on July 20, 1938 and came into effect on that date. On December 20, 2013, the Decreto por el que se reforman y adicionan diversas disposiciones de la Constitución Política de los Estados Unidos Mexicanos, en Materia de Energía (Decree that amends and supplements various provisions of the Mexican Constitution relating to energy matters), was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation. This Decree came into effect on December 21, 2013 and includes transitional articles setting forth the general framework and timeline for implementing legislation relating to the energy sector.

On August 11, 2014, the Ley de Petróleos Mexicanos (Petróleos Mexicanos Law) was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation. The Petróleos Mexicanos Law became effective on October 7, 2014, except for certain provisions. On December 2, 2014, the Secretaría de Energía (Ministry of Energy) published in the Official Gazette of the Federation the declaration pursuant to which the special regime governing Petróleos Mexicanos’ activities relating to productive state-owned subsidiaries, affiliates, compensation, assets, administrative liabilities, state dividend, budget and debt came into effect. On June 10, 2015, the Disposiciones Generales de Contratación para Petróleos Mexicanos y sus Empresas Productivas Subsidiarias (General Contracting Provisions for Petróleos Mexicanos and its productive state-owned subsidiaries) was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and the following day the special regime for acquisitions, leases, services and public works matters came into effect.

Once the Petróleos Mexicanos Law came into effect, Petróleos Mexicanos was transformed from a decentralized public entity to a productive state-owned company. Petróleos Mexicanos is a legal entity empowered to own property and carry on business in its own name with the purpose of carrying out exploration and extraction of crude oil and other hydrocarbons in the United Mexican States (“Mexico”). In addition, Petróleos Mexicanos performs activities related to refining, gas processing and engineering and research projects to create economic value and to increase the income of the Mexican Government, as its owner, while adhering to principles of equity and social and environmental responsibility.

The Subsidiary Entities, Pemex Exploración y Producción (Pemex Exploration and Production), Pemex Transformación Industrial (Pemex Industrial Transformation), Pemex Logística (Pemex Logistics) and Pemex Fertilizantes (Pemex Fertilizers) are productive state-owned subsidiaries empowered to own property and carry on business in their own name, subject to the direction and coordination of Petróleos Mexicanos (the “Subsidiary Entities”).

The Subsidiary Entities of Petróleos Mexicanos prior to the Corporate Reorganization (defined below) were Pemex-Exploración y Producción, Pemex-Refinación (Pemex-Refining), Pemex-Gas and Petroquímica Básica (Pemex-Gas and Basic Petrochemicals) and Pemex-Petroquímica (Pemex-Petrochemicals), which were decentralized public entities with a technical, industrial and commercial nature with their own corporate identity and equity, with the legal authority to own property and conduct business in their own names, and were 100% owned by Petróleos Mexicanos and controlled by the Mexican Government; they had been consolidated into and had the characteristics of subsidiaries of Petróleos Mexicanos.

 

F-10


The Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos, in its meeting held on November 18, 2014, approved the Corporate Reorganization proposed by the Chief Executive Officer of Petróleos Mexicanos. Pursuant to the corporate reorganization, the existing four Subsidiary Entities were transformed into two new productive state-owned subsidiaries, which have assumed all of the rights and obligations of the existing Subsidiary Entities. Pemex-Exploration and Production was transformed into Pemex Exploration and Production, a productive state-owned subsidiary, and Pemex-Refining, Pemex-Gas and Basic Petrochemicals and Pemex- Petrochemicals were transformed into the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Industrial Transformation. The Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos also approved the creation of the following Subsidiary Entities: Pemex Perforación y Servicios (Pemex Drilling and Services), Pemex Logistics, Pemex Cogeneración y Servicios (Pemex Cogeneration and Services), Pemex Fertilizers and Pemex Etileno (Pemex Ethylene) (the “Corporate Reorganization”).

On March 27, 2015, the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos approved the acuerdos de creación (creation resolutions) of each productive state-owned subsidiary. On April 28, 2015 the creation resolutions of the seven productive state-owned subsidiaries were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation.

On May 29, 2015 the statements related to the creation resolution of the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Exploration and Production and the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Cogeneration and Services issued by the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and, accordingly, these creation resolutions came into effect on June 1, 2015.

On December 29, 2015 and May 12, 2016, modifications to the creation resolution of the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Exploration and Production were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and became effective that same date, respectively.

On July 31, 2015, the statements related to the creation resolution of the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Drilling and Services, the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Fertilizers and the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Ethylene issued by the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and, accordingly, these creation resolutions came into effect on August 1, 2015.

On October 1, 2015, the statement related to the creation resolution of the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Logistics issued by the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and, accordingly, these creation resolutions came into effect on October 1, 2015.

On October 6, 2015, the statement related to the creation resolution of the productive state-owned subsidiary Pemex Industrial Transformation issued by the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and, accordingly, these creation resolutions came into effect on November 1, 2015.

On July 13, 2018, the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos issued the Declaratoria de Liquidación y Extinción de Pemex Cogeneración y Servicios (Declaration of Liquidation and Extinction of Pemex Cogeneration and Services), which was published in the Official Gazette of the Federation and became effective on July 27, 2018. Pemex Industrial Transformation is subrogated in any obligation contracted or right acquired previously, in Mexico and abroad, by Pemex Cogeneration and Services that was in force on July 27, 2018.

On June 24, 2019, the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos approved the merger of Pemex Exploration and Production and Pemex Drilling and Services, as well as the merger of Pemex Industrial Transformation and Pemex Ethylene, both became effective on July 1, 2019. Pemex Exploration and Production and Pemex Industrial Transformation will remain as merging companies and Pemex Drilling and Services and Pemex Ethylene will become extinct as merged companies.

 

F-11


On June 28, 2019, modifications to the Creation Resolutions of Pemex Exploration and Production, Pemex Industrial Transformation, Pemex Logistics and Pemex Fertilizers, which came into effect on July 1, 2019, were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation.

On July 30, 2019, the Declarations of Extinction of Pemex Drilling and Services and Pemex Ethylene, respectively, resulting from their merger with Pemex Exploration and Production and Pemex Industrial Transformation, respectively, issued by the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos and effective on July 1, 2019, were published in the Official Gazette of the Federation.

The Subsidiary Entities, and their primary purposes, are as follows:

 

 

Pemex Exploration and Production: This entity is in charge of exploration and extraction of crude oil and solid, liquid or gaseous hydrocarbons in Mexico, in the exclusive economic zone of Mexico and abroad, as well as drilling services and repair and services of wells

 

 

Pemex Industrial Transformation: This entity performs activities related to refining, processing, importing, exporting, trading and the sale of hydrocarbons, as well as commercializes, distributes and trades methane, ethane and propylene, directly or through others.

 

 

Pemex Logistics: This entity provides transportation, storage and related services for crude oil, petroleum products and petrochemicals to PEMEX (as defined below) and other companies, through pipelines and maritime and terrestrial means, and provides guard and management services.

 

 

Pemex Fertilizers: This entity produces, distributes and commercializes ammonia, fertilizers and its derivatives, as well as provides related services.

The principal distinction between the Subsidiary Entities and the Subsidiary Companies (as defined below) is that the Subsidiary Entities are productive state-owned entities, whereas the Subsidiary Companies are affiliate companies that were formed in accordance with the applicable laws of each of the respective jurisdictions in which they were incorporated.

The “Subsidiary Companies” are defined as those companies which are controlled, directly or indirectly, by Petróleos Mexicanos (see Note 3-A).

“Associates,” as used herein, means those companies in which Petróleos Mexicanos has significant influence but not control or joint control over its financial and operating policies. Petróleos Mexicanos, the Subsidiary Entities and the Subsidiary Companies are referred to collectively herein as “PEMEX.”

PEMEX’s address and its principal place of business is: Av. Marina Nacional No. 329, Col. Veronica Anzures, Alcaldía Miguel Hidalgo, 11300, Ciudad de México, México.

NOTE 2. AUTHORIZATION AND BASIS OF PREPARATION

Authorization –

On July 3, 2020, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements under IFRS and the notes hereto were authorized for issuance by the following officers: Mr. Octavio Romero Oropeza, Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Alberto Velázquez García, Chief Financial Officer, Mr. Carlos Fernando Cortez González, Deputy Director of Budgeting and Accounting, and Mr. Oscar René Orozco Piliado, Associate Managing Director of Accounting.

Statement of compliance –

PEMEX prepared its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, in accordance with IAS 34, “Interim Financial Reporting” (“IAS 34”) of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).

 

F-12


These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all the information and disclosures required for full annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with PEMEX’s audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019. PEMEX estimates that there is no significant impact on its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements due to the seasonality of operations. These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements follow the same accounting policies and methods of computation as the most recent annual financial statements.

 

A.

Basis of accounting

These unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared using the historical cost basis method, except for the following items, which have been measured using an alternative basis.

 

Item

  

Basis of measurement

Derivative Financial Instruments (“DFIs”)    Fair Value
Employee Benefits    Fair Value of plan assets less present value of the obligation (defined benefit plan)

 

B.

Going concern

The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which assumes that PEMEX will be able to continue its operations and can meet its payment obligations for a reasonable period. (See Note 18).

 

C.

Functional and reporting currency

These consolidated financial statements are presented in Mexican pesos, which is both PEMEX’s functional currency and reporting currency, due to the following:

 

i.

The economic environment in which PEMEX operates is Mexico, where the legal currency is the Mexican peso;

 

ii.

The budget through which Petróleos Mexicanos and its Subsidiary Entities operate as entities of the Mexican Government, including the ceiling for personnel services, is elaborated, approved and exercised in Mexican pesos.

 

ii.

Employee benefits provision was approximately 30% and 37% of PEMEX’s total liabilities as of each of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. This provision is computed, denominated and payable in Mexican pesos; and

 

iv.

Cash flows for payment of general expenses, taxes and duties are realized in Mexican pesos.

Although the sales prices of certain products are based on international U.S. dollar-indices, final domestic selling prices are governed by the economic and financial policies established by the Mexican Government. Accordingly, cash flows from domestic sales are generated and received in Mexican pesos.

Mexico’s monetary policy regulator, the Banco de México, requires that Mexican Government entities other than financial entities sell their foreign currency to the Banco de México in accordance with its terms, receiving Mexican pesos in exchange, which is the currency of legal tender in Mexico.

Terms definition –

References in these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the related notes to “pesos” or “Ps.” refers to Mexican pesos, “U.S. dollars” or “US$” refers to dollars of the United States of America, “yen” or “¥” refers to Japanese yen, “euro” or “€” refers to the legal currency of the European Economic and Monetary Union, “Pounds sterling” or “£” refers to the legal currency of the United Kingdom and “Swiss francs” or “CHF” refers to the legal currency of the Swiss Confederation. Figures in all currencies are presented in thousands of the relevant currency unit, except exchange rates and product and share prices.

 

F-13


D.

Use of judgments and estimates

The preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements in accordance with IFRS requires the use of estimates and assumptions made by PEMEX’s management that affect the recorded amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements, as well as the recorded amounts of income, costs and expenses during the period. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

Significant estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed, and the effects of such revisions are recognized in the periods in which any estimates are revised and in any future periods affected by such revision.

The significant judgements made by management in applying Pemex’s accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the last annual financial statements.

 

i.

Measurement of fair values

Some of PEMEX’s accounting policies and disclosures require the measurement of the fair values of financial assets and liabilities, as well as non-financial assets and liabilities.

PEMEX has an established control framework with respect to the measurement of fair values. This includes a valuation team that has overall responsibility for overseeing all significant fair value measurements, including Level 3 fair values.

The valuation team regularly reviews significant unobservable inputs and valuation adjustments. If third party information, such as broker quotes or pricing services, is used to measure fair values, then the valuation team assesses the evidence obtained from the third parties to support the conclusion that these valuations meet the requirements of IFRS, including the level in the fair value hierarchy in which the valuations should be classified.

When measuring the fair value of an asset or a liability, PEMEX uses market observable data as far as possible. Fair values are categorized into different levels in a fair value hierarchy based on the inputs used in the valuation techniques as follows.

 

 

Level 1: quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

 

 

Level 2: inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (i.e. as prices) or indirectly (i.e. derived from prices).

 

 

Level 3: inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs).

If the inputs used to measure the fair value of an asset or a liability might be categorized in different levels of the fair value hierarchy, then the fair value measurement is categorized in its entirety in the same level of the fair value hierarchy as the lowest level input that is significant to the entire measurement.

PEMEX recognizes transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy at the end of the reporting period during which the change has occurred.

NOTE 3. SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The accounting policies applied in the preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those applied in the preparation of PEMEX’s annual consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended December 31, 2019. PEMEX has not early adopted new or amended standards in preparing these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

 

F-14


NOTE 4. STANDARDS ISSUED BUT NOT YET EFFECTIVE

A number of new standards and amendments to standards are effective for annual periods beginning after January 1, 2021 and earlier application is permitted; however, PEMEX has not early adopted any of the forthcoming new or amended standards in preparing these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

NOTE 5. SUBSIDIARY ENTITIES AND SUBSIDIARY COMPANIES

NOTE 6. Segment financial information

PEMEX’s primary business is the exploration and production of crude oil and natural gas, as well as the production, processing, marketing and distribution of petroleum and petrochemical products. As of March 31, 2020, PEMEX’s operations were conducted through six business segments: Exploration and Production, Industrial Transformation, Logistics, Fertilizers, the Trading Companies and Corporate and Other Operating Subsidiary Companies. Until June 30, 2019, PEMEX’s operations were also conducted through the additional two business segments: Drilling and Services (merged into Pemex Exploration and Production as of July 1, 2019, see Note 1) and Ethylene (merged into Pemex Industrial Transformation as of July 1, 2019, see Note 1). Due to PEMEX’s structure, there are significant amounts of inter-segment sales among the reporting segments, which are made at internal transfer prices established by PEMEX that are intended to reflect international market prices.

The primary sources of revenue for PEMEX’s business segments are as described below:

 

 

The exploration and production segment earns revenues from domestic sales of crude oil and natural gas, and from exporting crude oil through certain of the Trading Companies. Crude oil export sales are made through the agent subsidiary company PMI CIM, to 23 major customers in various foreign markets. Approximately half of PEMEX’s crude oil is sold to Pemex Industrial Transformation.

 

 

The industrial transformation segment earns revenues from sales of refined petroleum products and derivatives, mainly to third parties within the domestic market. This segment also sells a significant portion of the fuel oil it produces to the Comisión Federal de Electricidad (Federal Eletricity Commission, or “CFE”) and a significant portion of jet fuel produced to the Aeropuertos y Servicios Auxiliares (Airports and Auxiliary Services Agency). The refining segment’s most important products are different types of gasoline and diesel.

 

 

The industrial transformation segment also earns revenues from domestic sources generated by sales of natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas, naphtha, butane and ethane and certain other petrochemicals such as methane derivatives, ethane derivatives, aromatics and derivatives.

 

 

The logistics segment earns income from transportation and storage of crude oil, petroleum products and petrochemicals, as well as related services, which it provides by employing pipelines and offshore and onshore resources, and from providing services related to the maintenance, handling, guarding and management of these products.

 

 

The fertilizers segment earns revenues from trading ammonia, fertilizers and its derivatives, mostly in the domestic market.

 

 

The trading companies segment, which consist of PMI CIM, PMI NASA, PMI Trading and MGAS (the “Trading Companies”), earns revenues from trading crude oil, natural gas and petroleum and petrochemical products in international markets.

 

 

The segment related to corporate and other operating Subsidiary Companies provides administrative, financing, consulting and logistical services, as well as economic, tax and legal advice and re-insurance services to PEMEX’s entities and companies.

 

 

The drilling segment receives income from drilling services, and servicing and repairing wells. This entity was merged into Pemex Exploration and Production on July 1, 2019 (see Note 1).

 

 

The ethylene segment earns revenues from the distribution and trade of methane, ethane and propylene in the domestic market. This entity was merged into Pemex Industrial Transformation on July 1, 2019 (see Note 1).

The following tables present the condensed financial information of these segments, after elimination of unrealized intersegment gain (loss), and include only select line items. As a result, the line items presented below may not total. The columns before intersegment eliminations include unconsolidated figures. These reporting segments are those which PEMEX’s management evaluates in its analysis of PEMEX and on which it bases its decision-making. These reporting segments are presented in PEMEX’s reporting currency.

(1)

This company was merged on July 1, 2019. All operations for periods subsequent to the merger were transferred to Pemex Exploration and Production (See Note 1). Therefore, these amounts are not comparable with 2020 figures.

This company was merged on July 1, 2019. All operations for periods subsequent to the merger were transferred to Pemex Industrial Transformation (See Note 1). Therefore, these amounts are not comparable with 2020 figures.

 

B.

Accounts receivable in the statement of financial position

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, PEMEX had accounts receivable derived from customer contracts in the amounts of Ps. 59,561,209 and Ps. 89,263,870, respectively (see Note 9).

 

C.

Practical expedients

 

  i.

Expiration of contracts

PEMEX has no outstanding performance obligations to disclose as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 due to the nature of its operations.

 

  ii.

Significant financial component, less than one year

PEMEX does not need to adjust the amount committed in consideration for goods and services to account for the effects of a significant financing component, since the transfer and the time of payment of a good or service committed to the customer is less than one year.

 

F-21


  iii.

Practical expedient

PEMEX applied the practical expedient, so disclosure about remaining performance obligations that conclude in less than one year is not needed.

When PEMEX is entitled to consideration for an amount that directly corresponds to the value of the performance that PEMEX has completed, it may recognize an income from ordinary activities for the amount to which it has the right to invoice.

Cash Generating Unit of Pemex Exploration and Production

As March 31, 2020, Pemex Exploration and Production recognized a net reversal of impairment of Ps. 21,972,888 mainly due to: (i) a positive exchange rate effect of Ps. 74,623,888 mainly in Cantarell, Yaxché, Aceite Terciario del Golfo (“ATG”), Chuc, Tsimin Xux and Burgos cash generating units (CGUs); (ii) an increase in future net cash flows from an increase in volume production profiles that increase future revenues, generating a positive effect of Ps. 39,184,000, mainly in the Cantarell, Burgos, Yaxché and Crudo Ligero marino CGUs. There were increases in the volume production profiles of new fields Ixachi, Xikin, Uchbal, Tetl, Teekit, Suuk, pokche and Mulach. These increases were partially offset by (iii) a decrease in crude oil and gas prices, generating a negative effect of Ps. (49,112,000) mainly in Chuc, Yaxché, Tsimin Xux and Crudo Ligero Marino CGUs; (iv) an impact from discounting future cash flows of Ps. (32,788,000), mainly in the Cantarell and ATG CGUs; and (v) higher taxes of Ps. (9,935,000) mainly in Cantarell and ATG CGUs due to higher income from production profiles.

As of March 31, 2019, Pemex Exploration and Production recognized a net impairment of Ps. 16,870,308 mainly due to: (i) natural declining in production of Ps. 19,200,350 in Cantarell, Chuc and Tsimin Xux Projects; (ii) Ps. 667,892 of impairment in Yaxche project, due to the operating impacts related directly to production; these effects were partially offset by a reversal of impairment of Ps. 2,997,934 in Burgos and Crudo Ligero Marino Projects, due to the re-evaluation of major production maintenance with an economic horizon of 25 years.

The cash generating units of Pemex Exploration and Production are investment projects in productive fields with hydrocarbon reserves associated with proved reserves. These productive hydrocarbon fields contain varying degrees of heating power consisting of a set of wells and are supported by fixed assets associated directly with production, such as pipelines, production facilities, offshore platforms, specialized equipment and machinery.

Each project represents the smallest unit which can concentrate the core revenues, with clear costs and expenses that enable future cash flows (value in use) to be determined.

Pemex Exploration and Production determines the recoverable amount of fixed assets based on the long-term estimated prices for Pemex Exploration and Production’s proved reserves. The recoverable amount on each asset is the value in use.

To determine the value in use of long-lived assets associated to hydrocarbon extraction, the net present value of reserves is determined based on the following assumptions:

 

     March 31, 2020    March 31, 2019

Average crude oil price

   49.57 USD/bl    58.02 USD/bl

Average gas price

   5.14 USD/mpc    4.89 USD/mpc

Average condensates price

   55.78 USD/bl    43.21 USD/bl

Discount rate

   6.17% annual    7.19% annual

For 2020 and 2019 the total forecast production, calculated with a horizon of 25 years was 6,914 and 6,002 million barrels of crude oil equivalent, respectively.

Pemex Exploration and Production, in compliance with practices observed in the industry, estimates the recovery value of asset by determining its value in use, based on cash flows associated with proved reserves after taxes and using a discount rate, also after taxes.

Cash Generating Units of Pemex Industrial Transformation

As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, Pemex Industrial Transformation recognized a net reversal of impairment of Ps. 4,345,644, and Ps. 2,532,405, respectively.

The net reversal of impairment was in the following cash generating units:

   Ps. 4,345,644      Ps. 2,532,405  
  

 

 

    

 

 

 

In 2020, the net reversal of impairment was mainly due to (i) important maintenance plans to recover assets use levels; (ii) a greater supply of light crude oil by Pemex Exploration and Production improving the quality of refined products such as gasoline, turbosines and decreasing residual products such as fuel oil; (iii) a decrease in the discount rate of cash generating units of refined products and gas by 0.07% and 2.8%, respectively, and an increase in petrochemicals and ethylene by 1.7%, and 1.2% respectively, due to the effect of weighting of elements with which the references are determined; and (iv) the depreciation of the peso against the U.S. dollar, from a peso/U.S. dollar exchange rate of Ps. 18.8452 = U.S. $1.00 as of December 31, 2019 to Ps. 23.5122 = U.S. $1.00 as of March 31, 2020, which are used as cash flows when U.S. dollars are taken as reference.

 

F-29


In 2019, the net reversal of impairment was mainly due to (i) an increase in processing of refined products due to higher prices projections; (ii) a decrease in the discount rate of cash generating units of refined products and petrochemicals by 0.3% and 1.3%, respectively, and an increase in gas by 1.7%; and (iii) a decrease in auto-consumption in refineries (oil gas and natural gas).

To determine the value in use of long-lived assets associated with the cash-generating units of Pemex Industrial Transformation, the net present value of cash flows was determined based on the following assumptions:

 

    As of March 31,
    2020   2019   2020   2019   2020   2019   2020

Cash-generating units in Pemex Industrial Transformation are processing centers grouped according to their types of processes as refineries, gas complex processors, and petrochemical centers. These centers produce various finished products for direct sale to customers or intermediate products that can be processed in another of its cash generating units or by a third party. Each processing center of Pemex Industrial Transformation represents the smallest unit that has distinguishable revenues, with clear costs and expenses that enable future cash flows (value in use) to be determined.

Cash flow determinations are made based on PEMEX’s business plans, operating financial programs, forecasts of future prices of products related to the processes of the cash generating units, budget programs and various statistical models that consider historical information of processes and the capacity of various processing centers.

The recoverable amount of assets is based on each asset’s value in use. The value in use for each asset is calculated based on cash flows, taking into consideration the volumes to be produced and sales to be carried out. As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, the value in use for the impairment of fixed assets was as follows:

The amount reflects the principal and interest from promissory note 5 in 2020 and promissory note 4 in 2019, as well as promissory notes matured on March 31, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

On December 24, 2015, the Secretaría de Hacienda y Crédito Público (Ministry of Finance and Public Credit, or “SHCP”) published in the Official Gazette of the Federation the Disposiciones de carácter general relativas a la asunción por parte del Gobierno Federal de obligaciones de pago de pensiones y jubilaciones a cargo de Petróleos Mexicanos y sus empresas productivas subsidiarias (General provisions regarding the assumption by the Mexican Government of the payment obligations related to pensions and retirement plans of Petróleos Mexicanos and its productive state-owned subsidiaries). These regulations stated the terms, conditions, financing mechanisms and payment arrangements pursuant to which the SHCP would assume a portion of the payment obligations related to PEMEX’s pensions and retirement plans. An independent expert reviewed the calculation, the methodology used, the maturity profile and all of the information provided by PEMEX.

In accordance with these provisions and prior to the completion of the independent expert’s review described above, on December 24, 2015, the Mexican Government issued in advance payment, through the SHCP, a Ps. 50,000,000 non-negotiable promissory note due December 31, 2050 payable to Petróleos Mexicanos. The promissory note, which accrued interest at a rate of 6.93% per year, was recognized as a long-term note receivable in non-current assets once the independent expert named by SHCP concluded its review.

On August 5, 2016, Petróleos Mexicanos received promissory notes issued by the Mexican Government at a discount value of Ps. 184,230,586 as of June 29, 2016, as part of the Mexican Government’s assumption of a portion of the payment liabilities related to Petróleos Mexicanos and Subsidiary Entities’ pensions and retirement plans, which notes were delivered in exchange for the Ps. 50,000,000 promissory notes issued to Petróleos Mexicanos on December 24, 2015. On August 15, 2016, Petróleos Mexicanos exchanged Ps. 47,000,000 of these promissory notes for short-term floating rate Mexican Government debt securities, known as Bonos de Desarrollo del Gobierno Federal (Development Bonds of the Mexican Government, or “BONDES D”). Petróleos Mexicanos then sold the BONDES D to Mexican development banks at market prices.

 

F-32


Petróleos Mexicanos recognized a Ps. 135,439,612 increase in equity as a result of the Ps. 184,230,586 of the promissory notes as of June 29, 2016, minus the Ps. 50,000,000 promissory note received by Petróleos Mexicanos on December 24, 2015, plus a Ps. 1,209,026 increase in the value of the promissory notes from June 29, 2016 to August 15, 2016, the date on which PEMEX received the promissory notes.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, these promissory notes amounted to Ps. 123,528,180 and Ps. 126,534,822, respectively. PEMEX intends to hold them to maturity. These promissory notes will be converted into cash with annual maturity dates ranging from 2020 to 2036 and yielding rates ranging from 5.57% to 7.00%, as follows:

The amount of the promissory note is Ps. 5,927,685, less an impairment of Ps. 31,608.

From January 1 to March 31, 2020 PEMEX recognized Ps. 2,000,636 in accrued interests from these promissory notes. This amount was recognized as financing income in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

Yield rates for these promissory notes are fixed all throughout their lifespans and up to their maturities. In addition, PEMEX believes the promissory notes do not have a credit risk because they are issued by the Mexican Government in Mexican pesos. The expected credit losses as March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019 were Ps. 31,608 and Ps. 8,000, respectively, which are presented net from the current portion of notes receivable.

During the year ended December 31, 2019, as part of the Mexican Government’s strategy to finance PEMEX, Petróleos Mexicanos received the prepayment of seven promissory notes (one maturing in 2019 and six prior to maturity) in the amount of Ps. 38,704,883 (Ps. 32,493,666 of principal and Ps. 6,211,217 of interest), which was transferred to the Fideicomiso Fondo Laboral Pemex (“Pemex Labor Fund” or “FOLAPE”) for the obligation payment related to its pension and retirement plan obligation. The monetization of two promissory notes took place after the expiration date of such notes, resulting in additional interest of Ps. 614.

As of March 31, 2020, Petróleos Mexicanos received the payment of promissory note No. 4 in the amount of Ps. 4,983,670 (Ps. 4,080,544 of principal and Ps. 903,126 of interest), which was transferred to the FOLAPE.

NOTE 15. DEBT

The Federal Income Law applicable to PEMEX as of January 1, 2020, published in the Official Gazette of the Federation on November 25, 2019, authorized Petróleos Mexicanos and its Subsidiary Entities to incur an internal net debt up to Ps. 10,000,000 and an external net debt up to U.S. $1,250,000. PEMEX can incur additional internal or external debt, as long as the total amount of net debt (Ps. 34,875,000, equivalent to U.S. $1,851,000) does not exceed the ceiling established by the Federal Income Law.

The Board of Directors approves the terms and conditions for the incurrence of obligations that constitute public debt of Petróleos Mexicanos for each fiscal year, in accordance with the Petróleos Mexicanos Law and the Reglamento de la Ley de Petróleos Mexicanos (Regulations to the Petróleos Mexicanos Law). These terms and conditions are promulgated in accordance with the guidelines approved by the SHCP for Petróleos Mexicanos for the respective fiscal year.

During the period from January 1 to March 31, 2020, PEMEX participated in the following financing activities:

Debt is valued and registered at amortized cost and the fair value of debt is estimated using quotes from major market sources which are then adjusted internally using standard market pricing models. As a result of relevant assumptions, the estimated fair value does not necessarily represent the actual terms at which existing transactions could be liquidated or unwound.

 

B.

Fair value hierarchy

PEMEX values the fair value of its financial instruments under standard methodologies commonly applied in the financial markets. PEMEX’s related assumptions and inputs therefore fall under the three Levels of the fair value hierarchy for market participant assumptions, as described below.

The fair values determined by Level 1 inputs utilize quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Fair values determined by Level 2 inputs are based on quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets, and inputs other than quoted prices that are observed for assets or liabilities. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs for the assets or liabilities, and include situations where there is little, if any, market activity for the assets or liabilities.

Management uses appropriate valuation techniques based on the available inputs to measure the fair values of PEMEX’s applicable financial assets and liabilities.

When available, PEMEX measures fair value using Level 1 inputs, because they generally provide the most reliable evidence of fair value.

 

C.

Fair value of DFIs

PEMEX periodically evaluates its exposure to international hydrocarbon prices, interest rates and foreign currencies and uses DFIs as a mitigation mechanism when potential sources of market risk are identified.

PEMEX monitors the fair value of its DFI portfolio on a periodic basis. The fair value represents the price at which one party would assume the rights and obligations of the other, and is calculated for DFIs through models commonly used in the international financial markets, based on inputs obtained from major market information systems and price providers. Therefore, PEMEX does not have an independent third party to value its DFIs.

PEMEX calculates the fair value of its DFIs through the tools developed by its market information providers such as Bloomberg, and through valuation models implemented in software packages used to integrate all of PEMEX´s business areas and accounting, such as SAP (System Applications Products). PEMEX does not have policies to designate a calculation or valuation agent.

PEMEX’s DFI portfolio is composed primarily of swaps, for which fair value is estimated by projecting future cash flows and discounting them with the corresponding discount factor; for currency options, this is done through the Black and Scholes Model, and for crude oil options, through the Levy model for Asian options.

According to IFRS 13 “Fair Value Measurement”, the mark to market (“MtM”) value of DFIs must reflect the creditworthiness of the parties. Consequently, the fair value of a DFI takes into account the risk that either party may default on its obligation. Due to the above, PEMEX applies the credit value adjustment (“CVA”) method to calculate the fair value of its DFIs.

Because PEMEX’s hedges are cash flow hedges, their effectiveness is preserved regardless of the variations in the underlying assets or reference variables since, through time, asset flows are fully offset by liabilities flows. Therefore, it is not necessary to measure or monitor the hedges’ effectiveness.

PEMEX’s DFIs’ fair-value assumptions and inputs fall under Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy for market participant assumptions.

 

F-39


D.

Accounting treatment applied and impact in the financial statements

PEMEX enters into derivatives transactions with the sole purpose of hedging financial risks related to its operations, firm commitments, planned transactions and assets and liabilities recorded on its statement of financial position. Nonetheless, some of these transactions do not qualify for hedge accounting treatment because they do not meet the requirements of the accounting standards for designation as hedges. They are therefore recorded in the financial statements as instruments entered into for trading purposes, despite the fact that their cash flows are offset by the cash flows of the positions (assets or liabilities) to which they relate. As a result, the changes in their fair value are recognized in the “Derivative financial instruments (cost) income, net” line item in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the net fair value of PEMEX’s DFIs (including both DFIs that have not reached maturity and those that have reached maturity but have not been settled), recognized in the consolidated statement of financial position, was Ps. (12,033,173) and Ps. (5,153,841), respectively. As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, PEMEX did not have any DFIs designated as hedges for accounting purposes.

All of PEMEX’s DFIs are treated, for accounting purposes, as instruments entered into for trading purposes, therefore any change in their fair value, caused by any act or event, impacts directly in the “Derivative financial instruments (cost) income, net” line item in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

For the periods ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, PEMEX recognized a net gain (loss) of Ps. (15,652,969) and Ps. (11,543,366), respectively, in the “Derivative financial instruments (cost) income, net” line item with respect to DFIs treated as instruments entered into for trading purposes.

In accordance with established accounting policies, PEMEX has analyzed the different contracts that PEMEX has entered into and has determined that according to the terms thereof none of these agreements meet the criteria to be classified as embedded derivatives. Accordingly, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, PEMEX did not recognize any embedded derivatives (foreign currency or index).

As of March 31, 2020 and 2019, PEMEX recognized a gain (loss) of Ps. (10,272,867) and Ps. 3,321,367, respectively, in the “Derivative financial instruments (cost) income, net” line item which resulted from changes in the fair value of the accounts receivable from the sale of hydrocarbons whose performance obligations have been met and whose determination of the final price is indexed to future prices of the hydrocarbons.

NOTE 17. PROVISIONS FOR SUNDRY CREDITORS

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the provisions for sundry creditors and others is as follows:

 

     March 31,      December 31,

Certificates of Contribution “A”

The capitalization agreement between Petróleos Mexicanos and the Mexican Government states that the Certificates of Contribution “A” constitute permanent capital.

During the three-months ended March 31, 2019, PEMEX received Ps. 25,000,000 in Certificates of Contribution “A” from the Mexican Government to help improve PEMEX’s financial position.

During the three-months ended March 31, 2020, PEMEX received a payment of Ps. 16,063,000, as part of the contributions to PEMEX established in the Federal Budget for 2020.

PEMEX’s Certificates of Contribution “A” are as follows:

Mexican Government contributions

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and during 2019, there were no Mexican Government contributions other than those in the form of Certificates of Contribution “A”.

 

c.

Legal reserve

Under Mexican law, each of the Subsidiary Companies is required to allocate a certain percentage of its net income to a legal reserve fund until the fund reaches an amount equal to a certain percentage of each Subsidiary Company’s capital stock.

As of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no changes to the legal reserve.

 

d.

Accumulated other comprehensive income (loss)

As a result of the discount rate analysis related to employee benefits liability, for the period ended March 31, 2020, PEMEX recognized net actuarial gains in other comprehensive income, net of deferred income tax for Ps. 191,123,923, related to retirement and post-employment benefits. The variation related to retirement and post-employment benefits was the result of an increase in the discount and return on plan assets rates from 7.53% as of December 31, 2019 to 8.44% as of March 31, 2020.

 

F-41


e.

Accumulated deficit from prior years

PEMEX has recorded negative earnings in the past several years. However, the Ley de Concursos Mercantiles (Commercial Bankruptcy Law of Mexico) is not applicable to Petróleos Mexicanos and the Subsidiary Entities. Furthermore, the financing agreements to which PEMEX is a party do not provide for financial covenants that would be breached or events of default that would be triggered as a consequence of negative equity.

 

f.

Uncertainty related to Going concern

The consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019, and for the year ended of December 31, 2019, PEMEX recognized a net loss of Ps. 562,250,623, Ps. 35,719,256, and Ps. 347,911,083, respectively. In addition, as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, PEMEX had a negative equity of Ps. 2,323,534,931 and Ps. 1,997,208,362, mainly due to continuous net losses, and a negative working capital of Ps. 240,141,341 and Ps. 211,651,257 as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

PEMEX also has substantial debt, incurred mainly to finance investments needed to carry out its operations. Due to its heavy fiscal burden resulting from the payment of hydrocarbon extraction duties and other taxes, the cash flows derived from PEMEX’s operations in recent years have not been sufficient to fund its operations and investment programs. As a result, PEMEX’s indebtedness has increased significantly, and its working capital has decreased. Additionally, the recent significant crude oil price drop, which started in March 2020 and the negative economic impact as a result of the current global health crisis caused by the Covid-19 pandemic have negatively impacted PEMEX’s financial performance (see Note 20).

PEMEX’s revenues have decreased both from the decline in crude oil prices and from a decrease in the demand of petroleum products.

In March and April 2020, certain ratings agencies downgraded PEMEX’s credit rating. Most recent credit downgrades have been mainly driven by the effects of Covid-19 and the associated reduced economic activity, as well the low crude oil prices and the downgrade of the Mexican Government’s sovereign debt rating. These downgrades could have an impact on PEMEX’s access to the financial markets, the cost and terms of PEMEX’s new debt and contract renegotiations that PEMEX may carry out during 2020 (see Note 20).

PEMEX has budget autonomy, and, in public finance terms, is subject to the cash flows financial balance goals approved in the Decreto de Presupuesto de Egresos de la Federación (“Federal Expenditure Budget Decree”). This represents the difference between its gross revenues (inflows) and its total budgeted expenditures (outflows) including the financial cost of its debt, which is proposed by the SHCP and approved by the Cámara de Diputados (Chamber of Deputies). The Federal Budget for 2020 authorized PEMEX to have a negative financial balance budget of Ps. 62,623,500. This shortfall does not consider payments of principal of PEMEX’s debt due in 2020.

In addition, PEMEX estimates that the drop in crude oil prices, the lower economic activity caused by the Covid-19 pandemic and the volatility of the foreign exchange rates, will increase the negative financial balance for 2020. This additional negative financial balance reflects efforts to mitigate the impact of the adverse conditions through a reduction of PEMEX’s capital expenditures for exploration and productions activities by approximately Ps. 40,500,000, its operating expenses by approximately Ps. 5,000,000, and a Ps. 65,000,000 tax benefit granted by the Mexican Government, by offsetting Derecho por la Utilidad Compartida (Profit-Sharing Duty, or “DUC”) payments up to such amount.

PEMEX has short-term debt maturities of Ps. 258,929,286, as of March 31, 2020.

 

F-42


PEMEX is carrying out the following actions, among others, to preserve liquidity:

In order to satisfy its short-term debt obligations, in January 2020 PEMEX issued notes and bonds in the international markets for a total of U.S. $5,000,000 and conducted a liability management program (debt restructuring plan). Additionally, PEMEX has the capacity to refinance its short-term debt maturities through direct and revolving bank credit facilities and loans guaranteed by export credit agencies.

The Ley de Ingresos de la Federación para el Ejercicio Fiscal de 2020 (“Revenue Law for 2020”) also authorized PEMEX a net additional indebtedness up to Ps. 34,875,000, which is considered as public debt by the Mexican Government and may be used to partially cover its negative financial balance. This indebtedness may arise from available credit lines and other financing sources. If necessary, PEMEX has a total amount of Ps. 177,396,740 (U.S. $7,450,000 and Ps. 37,000,000) in credit lines in order to provide liquidity, subject to the authorized net indebtedness. As of March 31, 2020, PEMEX has withdrawn U.S. $800,000 (Ps. 18,810,000) and Ps. 33,500,000 from these credit lines and has available U.S. $6,650,000 (Ps. 156,356,000) and Ps. 3,500,000.

PEMEX is currently working on a strategy for savings from better negotiation of current and future contracts, for obtaining revenues from its crude price oil hedge program of its Mexican crude oil production and alternative financing mechanisms that do not constitute public debt, in order to improve its financial condition.

PEMEX believes it has the capacity to comply with its payments obligations and its operating continuity, however, PEMEX’s future cash flows are uncertain, and certain events are outside of its control. Any adverse impact from sustained decrease in crude oil prices below the budgeted average price for 2020 and from the slow-down of the economy would have an adverse impact on PEMEX’s results of operation, cash flows and may require it to consider additional actions to address the shortfalls. The combined effect of the above-mentioned events indicates the existence of significant doubt about PEMEX’s ability to continue as a going concern.

On July 15, 2019, the Board of Directors of Petróleos Mexicanos approved PEMEX’s business plan for 2019 through 2023 (the “2019-2023 Business Plan”). The 2019-2023 Business Plan describes goals such as modernizing the company, improving its competitiveness and guaranteeing its financial viability in the short, medium and long-term.

The 2019-2023 Business Plan describes measures intended to address the main structural problems of the company: its high tax burden, its debt and low investment.

PEMEX continuously monitors and updates its 2019-2023 Business Plan. PEMEX is currently reviewing this plan to assess the impact that the March 2020 drop in crude oil prices and the Covid-19 pandemic will have on the business plan. Even though these events will impact PEMEX’s 2020 results of operations and investment activity (see Note 20), PEMEX is committed to the actions of its 2019-2023 Business Plan.

On the other hand, PEMEX conducted liability management programs (debt restructuring plan) during 2019 and at the beginning of 2020 that improved its debt profile, from U.S. $8,700,000 to U.S. $6,300,000 and improved PEMEX’s liquidity for 2020 and future years.

Petróleos Mexicanos and its Subsidiary Entities are not subject to the Commercial Bankruptcy Law of Mexico and none of PEMEX’s existing financing agreements include any financial covenants that could lead to the demand for immediate payment of its debt due to having negative equity or non-compliance with financial ratios.

PEMEX prepared its unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements as of March 31, 2020 and December 31, 2019, on a going concern basis. There are certain conditions that have generated important uncertainty and significant doubts concerning the entity’s ability to continue operating, including recurring net losses, negative working capital and negative equity. These financial statements do not contain any adjustments that would be required if they were not prepared on a going concern basis.

Non-controlling interest

PEMEX does not currently own all of the shares of PMI CIM, HJ BARRERAS and COMESA, variations in income and equity from these entities are also presented in the consolidated statements of changes in equity (deficit) as “non-controlling interest.”

As of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, non-controlling interest represented losses of Ps. 283,866 and Ps.141,793, respectively, in PEMEX’s equity (deficit).

NOTE 19. CONTINGENCIES

In the ordinary course of business, PEMEX is named in a number of lawsuits of various types. PEMEX evaluates the merit of each claim and assesses the likely outcome. PEMEX has not recorded provisions related to ongoing legal proceedings due to the fact that an unfavorable resolution is not expected in such proceedings, with the exception of the proceeding described in further detail in this Note.

PEMEX is involved in various civil, tax, criminal, administrative, labor and commercial lawsuits and arbitration proceedings. The results of these proceedings are uncertain as of the date of these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements. As of March 31, 2020, and December 31, 2019, PEMEX had accrued a reserve of Ps. 8,417,107 and Ps. 8,075,031, and, respectively, for these contingent liabilities.

NOTE 20. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

During the period from April 1 to July 3, 2020, the following subsequent events have occurred.

 

A.

Decline in international crude oil prices

In order to address the drop in crude oil prices that began in March 2020, on April 12, 2020, OPEC and other non-OPEC oil exporting countries, including, among others, Mexico and Russia, reached an agreement to reduce world crude oil supply. Pursuant to this agreement, these countries, which are known as OPEC+, agreed to reduce their overall crude oil production by 9.7 million barrels per day from May 1, 2020 through June 30, 2020, by 7.7 million barrels per day from July 1, 2020 through December 31, 2020 and by 5.8 million barrels per day from January 1, 2021 through April 30, 2022. In particular, Mexico has agreed to, and has begun to reduce its crude oil production by 100,000 barrels per day for a period of two months beginning on May 1, 2020.

PEMEX prepared its budget for 2020 based on a Mexican crude oil basket price of U.S. $49.00 per barrel and contracted financial derivative instruments to hedge PEMEX’s risk exposure to declines in the price of Mexican crude oil price, when it falls below the average price of U.S. $49.00, up to a floor of U.S. $44.00 per barrel.

Taking into consideration the conditions described above, PEMEX’s budget deficit may increase for the year 2020. PEMEX is taking certain actions to face this deficit, such as reducing its capital expenditures by Ps. 40,500,000, decreasing operating expenses that do not hazard its operating capabilities by Ps. 5,000,000, decreasing non-strategic projects and focusing instead on more profitable ones, as well as the implementation and development of alternative financing mechanisms that do not constitute public debt.

On April 21, 2020, the Mexican Government granted through a President’s decree a tax benefit for PEMEX equal to Ps. 65,000,000 for 2020, consistent on a fiscal credit applicable to the DUC up to such amount.

Despite the fall in international crude oil prices, PEMEX has observed a recovery from an average price as of March 31, 2020, of U.S. $10.76 per barrel to U.S. $37.35 per barrel as of July 3, 2020.

 

B.

Decrease in the demand of petroleum products

As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic, on March 24, 2020 the Mexican Government, through the Secretaría de Salud (Mexican Ministry of Health), implemented actions to protect against Covid-19. Some of these actions consist of, among others, issuing directives to avoid places of work, crowded areas, public places or unnecessary social activities during this time. These preventative measures have caused a decrease in demand of certain goods and services, including petroleum products. As of the date of issuance of these financial statements, PEMEX cannot predict what effect these measures will have on PEMEX’s operations or financial position.

As a result of the worldwide economic slowdown and, in particular, the decrease in fuel demand, PEMEX estimates a 61% decrease in its domestic sales of petroleum products in the period from April 1 to June 30, 2020.

 

C.

Impairment of assets

PEMEX estimates that factors described above may impact impairment and/or reversal of long-lived assets during and at year end 2020, upon the behavior of the markets and the several economic and financial variables. A long period of low crude oil prices may greatly impact PEMEX´s impairment of long-lived assets, depending on changes in the remaining assumptions and economic and financial conditions.

 

D.

Ratings agencies’ downgrade of PEMEX’s credit rating

On April 1, 2020, HR Ratings affirmed PEMEX’s local credit rating at HR AAA with a stable outlook and downgraded PEMEX’s global credit ratings to HR BBB+(G) with a negative outlook. This ratings action followed a similar ratings action taken by S&P in relation to the United Mexican States.

On April 3, 2020, Fitch Ratings downgraded PEMEX’s ratings of its bonds from BB+ to BB with a negative outlook amid fears that PEMEX’s stand-alone credit profile may deteriorate further due to low oil prices. The downgrade reflects PEMEX’s limited flexibility to navigate the downturn in the oil and gas industry, given PEMEX’s elevated tax burden, high leverage, rising per barrel lifting costs and high investment needs to maintain production and replenish reserves.

On April 17, 2020, Fitch Ratings further downgraded PEMEX’s international foreign and local currency long-term ratings from BB to BB- as a consequence of the downgrades of the Mexican Government ratings. Fitch Ratings also revised the outlook from negative to stable. The downgrade of PEMEX’s credit rating reflects the direct link to the credit rating of the sovereign United Mexican States, in accordance with Fitch Rating´s methodology.

 

F-46


On April 17, 2020, Moody´s downgraded PEMEX’s credit ratings from Baa3 to Ba2, maintaining a negative credit outlook, citing PEMEX’s higher liquidity and business risk. This ratings action followed a similar ratings action taken by Moody’s in relation to the United Mexican States.

According to Fitch and Moody’s credit rating scales, the BB- and Ba2 ratings, respectively, are considered non-investment grade. Therefore, PEMEX’s debt instruments are considered speculative, pursuant to these credit rating scales.

On April 21, 2020, Moody´s downgraded PEMEX’s senior unsecured credit ratings of its outstanding notes, as well as credit ratings based on Petróleos Mexicanos’ guarantee to A2.mx/Ba2 from Aa3.mx/Baa3. Moody’s also downgraded Petróleos Mexicanos’ short-term local scale rating to MX-2 from MX-1. This rating action followed a similar ratings action taken by Moody’s Investors Services of withdrawing Petróleos Mexicanos investor rating from Baa3 and assigning it a corporate family rating of Ba2 and maintaining negative credit outlook.

The rapid and growing spread of the Covid-19 virus, combined with the impairment of world economic outlook, the drop in crude oil prices and the decrease in asset prices is creating a severe and extensive credit crisis in several sectors, regions and markets. The effect on credit is without any precedent. The oil and gas sector has been one of the most affected sectors, due to its sensitivity to demand and consumers´ confidence.

These downgrades in PEMEX’s ratings could hinder or make PEMEX’s access to financial markets more difficult.

 

E.

Recent financing activities

As of March 31, 2020, the outstanding amount in PMI HHS’ revolving credit lines was U.S. $225,000. Between April 1 to July 3, 2020, PMI HHS obtained U.S. $4,483,000 and repaid U.S. $(4,258,000) in financing from its revolving credit lines. As of July 3, 2020, the outstanding amount under these revolving credit lines was U.S. $450,000

As of July 3, 2020, Petróleos Mexicanos had U.S. $7,450,000 and Ps. 37,000,000 in available revolving credit lines in order to ensure liquidity, with U.S. $4,300,000 and Ps. 8,500,000 remaining available.

 

F.

Contributions from the Mexican Government to PEMEX

On April 2, 2020, Petróleos Mexicanos received the payment of the promissory Note No. 4, which was issued by the Mexican Government and matured on March 31, 2020 in the amount of Ps. 4,983,670, related to its pension and retirement plan obligation.

Between May 1, and July 3, 2020, PEMEX received Ps. 20,000,000, in Certificates of Contribution “A” from the Mexican Government to help improve PEMEX’s financial position.

 

G.

Exchange rates and crude oil prices

As of July 3, 2020, the Mexican peso-U.S. dollar exchange rate was Ps. 22.8078 per U.S. dollar, which represents a 3.0% appreciation of the value of the peso in U.S. dollar terms as compared to the exchange rate as of March 31, 2020, which was Ps. 23.5122 per U.S. dollar. This decrease in U.S. dollar exchange rate from March 31, 2020 to July 3, 2020 has led to a decrease of Ps. 65,919,336 in PEMEX’s foreign exchange loss as of July 3, 2020.

As of July 3, 2020, the weighted average price of the crude oil exported by PEMEX was U.S. $37.35 per barrel. This represents a price increase of approximately 71.2% as compared to the average price as of March 31, 2020, which was U.S. $10.76 per barrel.

 

H.

HJ BARRERAS

In May 2020, PMI HBV, shareholder of HJ BARRERAS, transferred to Cruise Yacht Yard Co, Ltd, a company belonging to the ship-owner of the ship in construction by HJ BARRERAS, its corporate and economic rights corresponding to its 51% share in HJ BARRERAS (through a usufruct) along with other agreements, in exchange for a total amount of € 5,100 (Ps. 125,504). Hence, PMI HBV no longer controls HJ BARRERAS, and HJ BARRERAS is no longer consolidated in PEMEX’s consolidated financial statements as of May 31, 2020. As of March 31, 2020 and April 30, 2020, HJ BARRERAS’ total assets amounted to Ps. 1,535,527 and Ps. 1,557,974, respectively, total liabilities amounted to Ps. 3,000,997 and Ps. 2,945,294, respectively, and negative equity (of which 49% was non-controlling interest) amounted to Ps. (1,465,470) and Ps. (1,387,320), respectively. The amount of negative equity as of April 30, 2020 includes Ps. 224,528 of losses during the four-month period then ended (of which 49% was non-controlling interest). This transaction resulted in a profit of Ps. 833,038 in PEMEX’s consolidated results of operations.
