Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Equinor ASA reported third-quarter 2025 results showing solid operations and cash generation alongside non-cash charges. Adjusted operating income was USD 6.21 billion, and adjusted net income was USD 0.93 billion, equal to adjusted EPS of USD 0.37. The company recorded net operating income of USD 5.27 billion and a reported net loss of USD 0.20 billion, mainly due to USD 754 million of net impairments tied to updated price assumptions and assets held for sale.

Production averaged 2,130 mboe per day, up 7% year over year, led by Johan Sverdrup, new NCS fields (Johan Castberg, Halten East), and higher U.S. output. Total power generation reached 1.37 TWh, with renewables at 0.91 TWh, up 34%. Cash flow from operations after taxes was USD 5.33 billion. The net debt to capital employed adjusted ratio was 12.2% at quarter-end.

Equinor declared a cash dividend of USD 0.37 per share for the quarter and will launch the fourth tranche of its 2025 share buy-back program of up to USD 1.266 billion, keeping total 2025 capital distribution around USD 9 billion. In October, first oil was achieved at Brazil’s Bacalhau field, and the company decided to stop two early-phase electrification projects due to high abatement costs.

Equinor ASA ha riportato i risultati del terzo trimestre 2025 mostrando operazioni solide e generazione di cassa insieme a oneri non monetari. Il reddito operativo rettificato è stato di 6,21 miliardi di USD, e l’utile netto rettificato è stato di 0,93 miliardi di USD, pari a un utile per azione rettificato di 0,37 USD. L’utile operativo netto registrato è stato di 5,27 miliardi di USD e una perdita netta riportata di 0,20 miliardi di USD, principalmente a causa di 754 milioni di USD di impairment netti legati a ipotesi di prezzo aggiornate e a beni detenuti per la vendita.

La produzione media è stata di 2,130 mboe al giorno, in aumento del 7% rispetto all'anno precedente, guidata da Johan Sverdrup, dai nuovi giacimenti NCS (Johan Castberg, Halten East) e da una maggiore produzione negli Stati Uniti. La generazione totale di energia elettrica ha raggiunto 1,37 TWh, con le energie rinnovabili a 0,91 TWh, in aumento del 34%. Il flusso di cassa operativo al netto delle imposte è stato di 5,33 miliardi di USD. Il rapporto debito netto sul capitale impiegato rettificato era del 12,2% al termine del trimestre.

Equinor ha dichiarato un dividendo in contanti di 0,37 USD per azione per il trimestre e lancerà la quarta tranche del suo programma di riacquisto azioni 2025 per un massimo di 1,266 miliardi di USD, mantenendo una distribuzione di capitale 2025 complessiva intorno ai 9 miliardi di USD. In ottobre, è stato raggiunto il primo oil nel campo Bacalhau in Brasile, e la società ha deciso di interrompere due progetti di elettrificazione in fase iniziale a causa degli elevati costi di abbattimento.

Insights

Operational strength offset by impairments; capital returns maintained.

Equinor delivered strong volumes with total production up 7% to 2,130 mboe/d, supporting adjusted operating income of USD 6.21 billion. Renewables generation rose 34% to 0.91 TWh as Dogger Bank A ramped. Cash flow from operations after taxes was robust at USD 5.33 billion, helping hold net debt to capital employed adjusted at 12.2%.

Reported earnings were pressured by USD 754 million of net impairments tied to revised price assumptions and assets held for sale (including UK JV transfer and Peregrino). Segment dynamics were mixed: E&P Norway remained the earnings anchor, while MMP normalized and REN reflected prior-period impairments.

Capital returns remain a core feature: a USD 0.37 dividend and a fourth 2025 buyback tranche of up to USD 1.266 billion support total 2025 distribution of around USD 9 billion. Subsequent disclosures may detail Bacalhau’s early contribution and the planned buyback execution schedule.

DISCLOSURES
Strong cashflow and operational performance
Equinor delivered a total equity production of 2,130
mboe per day in the third quarter, up 7% from 1,984
mboe per day in the same quarter last year.
Operational performance on the Norwegian
continental shelf (NCS) was strong with several
fields, in particular the Johan Sverdrup field,
delivering strong production and minimal unplanned
downtime. Combined with the new Johan Castberg
and Halten East fields, the production growth was
9% on the NCS compared to the same quarter last
year. New wells and lower impact from turnarounds
also contributed positively.
The acquisition of additional interests in US onshore
assets in 2024, and increased production from
offshore assets, contributed to a 29% increase in oil
and gas production from the US segment in the third
quarter, compared to the same period last year.
The production from the international upstream
segment, excluding the US, is down compared to the
same quarter last year due to exits from Nigeria and
Azerbaijan in 2024. There was a two-month
production halt at the Peregrino field, which is held
for sale. The halt was due to audit requirements from
the Brazilian authorities, and production resumed in
October. Production from new wells internationally
contributed positively to the results.
The total power generation was 1.37 TWh. The
renewable portfolio contributed with 0.91 TWh, which
is a 34% increase compared to last year, primarily
driven by the ramp up of Dogger Bank A and new
production from onshore renewables.
In the quarter, Equinor completed 18 offshore
exploration wells on the NCS with 7 commercial
discoveries.
Financial results
Equinor delivered an adjusted operating income* of
USD 6.21 billion and USD 1.51 billion after tax* in
the third quarter of 2025. The results are affected by
lower liquids prices, which were partially offset by
higher production and higher gas prices in the US.
The reported net operating income of USD 5.27
billion is down from USD 6.91 billion in the same
quarter last year. This is impacted by net
impairments of USD 754 million, primarily due to
updated forward-looking price assumptions. Assets
held for sale in the international portfolio, which
hence have not been depreciated, accounted for
USD 650 million and USD 385 million is related to
non-operated assets offshore in the US. This was
partially offset by an impairment reversal of USD 299
million related to an onshore asset in Norway.
Equinor realised a European gas price of USD 11.4
per mmbtu and realised liquids prices were USD
64.9 per bbl in the third quarter.
Equinor expects the Midstream, Marketing and
Processing segment to deliver a quarterly average
adjusted operating income* of around USD 400
million going forward. This is due to changing market
conditions and earlier divestment of certain assets.
Adjusted operating and administrative expenses* are
higher compared to the same quarter last year. This
is due to the booking of future operating expenses
related to a US offshore asset that ceased
production in the quarter, as well as higher
transportation costs and currency effects. This was
partially offset by cost improvements in the
renewable segment.
Strong operational performance generated cash
flows provided by operating activities, before taxes
paid and working capital items, of USD 9.10 billion
for the third quarter.
Equinor paid two NCS tax instalments totalling USD
3.9 billion in the quarter. For the fourth quarter,
Equinor expects to pay three instalments. This is due
to the new phasing of ten instalments annually.
Cash flow from operations after taxes paid* ended at
USD 5.33 billion.
Organic capital expenditure* was USD 3.41 billion
for the quarter, and total capital expenditures were
USD 3.68 billion.
The net debt to capital employed adjusted ratio* was
12.2% at the end of the third quarter, compared to
15.2% at the end of the second quarter of 2025.
Strategic development
Successful near-infrastructure exploration on the
NCS, led to seven commercial discoveries in the
quarter. One of the discoveries already started
production, adding volumes to the Åsgard A in the
Norwegian Sea. Combined with production start-up
from the Askeladd Vest field in the Barents Sea, this
supports Equinor’s long-term role as a safe supplier
of energy to Europe.
In October, the Bacalhau field in Brazil came on
stream. With recoverable reserves of more than
1 billion barrels of oil equivalents, it is the largest
international offshore field ever developed by
Equinor.
In the third quarter, Equinor announced participation
in the rights issue of Ørsted. This is driven by a
positive long-term view for offshore wind and
confidence in the underlying business of Ørsted.
In the quarter, Northern Lights received and stored
the first CO₂ volumes. With this, the world’s first third
party CO₂ transport and storage facility is now
operational.
In October, Equinor decided to stop the early phase
Snorre and Halten electrification projects. The
reason for stopping the two projects was primarily
due to high abatement costs. The company will
further mature the Grane-Balder early-phase energy
project.

Operations and financial results
Equinor delivered a 7% increase in production,
driven by new fields on the NCS and contributions
from the US upstream portfolio, while lower liquids
prices tempered financial results.
In E&P Norway, the new Johan Castberg and Halten
East fields drove increased production in both the
third quarter and the first nine months of 2025
compared to the same periods last year. High
production efficiency from Johan Sverdrup, new
wells and a lower impact from turnarounds more
than offset natural decline on several fields in the
third quarter, while production during the first nine
months was partially impacted by increased
maintenance activities and natural decline across
several fields.
Portfolio changes in the international upstream
business throughout 2024 continued to influence
production levels in 2025. The acquisition of
additional interests in US onshore assets in
December 2024 increased E&P USA production in
the third quarter and first nine months of 2025
compared to the same periods last year. This
increase was supported by new offshore wells
brought into production in 2025. In E&P
International, the divestments of interests in Nigeria
and Azerbaijan in the fourth quarter of 2024 led to
lower production volumes for the quarter and first
nine months of 2025. The production stop in
Peregrino from mid-August 2025 further contributed
to the decrease, which was partially offset by new
wells across the E&P International portfolio in the
quarter.
Growth in the renewables portfolio drove the
increase in total power generation in the third quarter
and first nine months of 2025. The ongoing ramp-up
of Dogger Bank A and the onshore acquisition in
Sweden in March 2025 led to a 34% and 18%
increase in renewable power generation for the third

STATEMENTS AND NOTES
SUPPLEMENTARY
DISCLOSURES
quarter and first nine months of 2025 respectively,
compared to the same periods last year.
Marketing, Midstream and Processing segment
results in the third quarter were primarily driven by
the optimisation of piped gas trading in Europe. The
result from Crude, Products and Liquids was weak
during the third quarter of 2025, negatively affected
by losses on hedging of shipping contracts and weak
speculative trading. Lower contributions from LNG,
crude, LPG trading and gas infrastructure, due to
sale of assets, led to decreased results during the
first nine months.
Higher production volumes and realised gas prices
drove increased revenue for the quarter and first
nine months of 2025 relative to the same periods last
year. For the quarter, lower liquids prices partially
offset the benefit from higher production, leading to
only a marginal increase in revenue.
Adjusted operating and administrative expenses*
increased in the quarter and first nine months
compared to the same periods last year, primarily
impacted by transportation costs and changes in
estimates of asset retirement obligations associated
with a late-life offshore asset in the US that ceased
production during the third quarter. This increase
was partially offset by the divestments in E&P
International and reduction in business development
and early phase projects within the renewables and
low carbon solutions businesses.
The new fields on the NCS were the primary driver
of an increase in adjusted depreciation, amortisation
and net impairments* in the quarter. For the first nine
months of 2025, the impact of the new fields was
mostly offset by the cessation of depreciation for UK
assets, classified as held for sale since December
2024, and the cessation of depreciation for
Peregrino, classified as held for sale since May
2025, resulting in stable depreciation relative to the
same period last year.
Lower drilling activity across our international
portfolio contributed to a decrease in exploration
expenses in the third quarter and first nine months of
2025, partially offset by increased exploration activity
on the NCS during the third quarter.
Net operating income included net impairments of
USD 754 million in the third quarter, and USD 1,855
million during the first nine months of 2025, impacted
to a large extent by updated price assumptions.
During the quarter, impairments totalling USD 650
million related to assets held for sale in our E&P
International portfolio and USD 385 million related to
producing assets in the Gulf of America. These
charges were partially offset by an impairment
reversal of USD 299 million related to an onshore
asset in Norway.
Adjusted net financial items* in the quarter and in the
first nine months of 2025 reduced from the same
periods in the prior year, mainly due to losses on
financial investments during 2025.
Taxes
The effective reported tax rate was high for the
quarter and increased from 68.6% in 2024 to 104.4%
for the third quarter of 2025.The increase was mainly
due to higher share of income from jurisdictions with
high tax rates. The tax rate is also influenced by the
de-recognition of deferred tax assets and an
impairment related to the joint venture agreement
with Shell in the UK, see note 3. The increase was
partially offset by currency effects in entities that are
taxable in other currencies than the functional
currency.
Cash flow and net debt
Strong operational performance in the third quarter
generated cash flow provided by operating activities
before taxes paid and working capital items of USD
9,098 million. Higher gas prices contributed to the
increase from USD 8,670 million in the same quarter
last year, partially offset by lower liquids prices. For
the first nine months, cash flow provided by
operating activities before taxes paid and working
capital items increased slightly from USD 28,424
million in the same period last year to USD 28,885
million.
Cash flow from operations after taxes paid*
decreased to USD 5,334 million from USD 5,685
million in the third quarter of 2024, primarily due to
higher tax payments in the quarter. For the first nine
months of 2025, cash flow from operations after
taxes paid* was USD 14,666 million, up from USD
13,739 million in the prior year.
Tax payments in the third quarter totalled USD 3,764
million, mainly representing the first two scheduled
Norwegian corporation tax instalments related to
2025 earnings. This is an increase from USD 2,986
million in the same period last year, with the increase
reflecting the change in the NCS instalment tax
payment structure.
A working capital decrease of USD 1,012 million
positively impacted the cash flow in the third quarter
of 2025 compared to a decrease of USD 810 million
in the third quarter of 2024.
Net cash flow before capital distribution* increased
from negative USD 1,289 million in the prior quarter
to positive USD 2,085 million. The increase was
mainly due to lower tax payments in the third quarter,
as it was the first quarter under the new NCS
instalment tax structure and related to 2025
earnings.
In the third quarter, net cash flow* amounted to an
outflow of USD 3,565 million, reflecting substantial
cash distributions of USD 4,712 million related to the
share buy-back programme, including USD 4,260
million payment to the Norwegian state. Net cash
flow* was an outflow of USD 4,058 million in the first
nine months of 2025, down from an outflow of USD
7,882 million in the same period last year, primarily
due to higher dividend payments in the prior year.
A decrease in liquid assets in the quarter, combined
with decreased equity caused a decrease in the net
debt to capital employed adjusted* ratio at the end of
September 2025 to 12.2% from 15.2% at the end of
June 2025
The subscription of additional shares in Ørsted A/S
for USD 0.9 billion was settled in early October and
will be reflected in cash flows for the fourth quarter.
Capital distribution
The board of directors has decided a cash dividend
of USD 0.37 per share for the third quarter of 2025,
in line with communication at the Capital Markets
Update in February.
The board of directors has decided to initiate a fourth
and final tranche of the share buy-back programme
for 2025 of up to USD 1.266 billion. The tranche will
commence on 30 October and end no later than 2
February 2026. This fourth tranche will complete the
announced share buy-back programme of up to USD
5 billion for 2025. It will also conclude total capital
distribution for 2025 of around USD 9 billion.
The third tranche of the share buy-back programme
for 2025 was completed on 23 October 2025 with a
total value of USD 1.265 billion.
All share buy-back amounts include shares to be
redeemed by the Norwegian state.

Health, safety and the environment
In September, Equinor had a fatal accident where a
sub-contractor lost his life during a lifting operation at
the Mongstad refinery. The accident is being
investigated by Havtil, the police and internally by
Equinor.
Equinor's internal investigation of the accidental oil
spill from Njord A in December 2024 has been
completed and confirms that the incident could not
have developed into a major incident. There is no
documented oil-damaged wildlife or other
environmental damage following the spill. The
mapping and collection of oil clumps has been
completed for 2025 and Equinor plans to undertake
inspection and verification activities in 2026.
The twelve-month average serious incident
frequency (SIF) for the period ended 30 September
2025 was 0.23, a decrease from 2024 which ended
at 0.3.
Equinor’s absolute Scope 1 and 2 GHG emissions
from operated production (100% basis) were 8.0
million tonnes CO₂e in the first nine months of 2025,
representing a reduction of 0.2 million tonnes CO₂e
compared to the same period last year. The
reduction is primarily attributed to a turnaround at
Hammerfest LNG and the positive emission-reducing
effects of electrification projects implemented on the
NCS in 2024.

Outlook
Gullfaks, Norway
Organic capital expenditures* are estimated at
USD 13 billion for 20252.
Oil & gas production for 2025 is estimated to
grow 4% compared to 2024 level [5].
Equinor’s ambition is to keep the unit of
production cost in the top quartile of its peer
group.
Scheduled maintenance activity is estimated to
reduce equity production by around 30 mboe per
day for the full year of 2025.
These forward-looking statements reflect current
views about future events and are, by their nature,
subject to significant risks and uncertainties because
they relate to events and depend on circumstances
that will occur in the future. Deferral of production to
create future value, gas off-take, timing of new
capacity coming on stream and operational regularity
and levels of industry product supply, demand and
pricing represent the most significant risks related to
the foregoing production guidance. Our future
financial performance, including cash flow and
liquidity, will be affected by geopolitical and
macroeconomic conditions, changes in the
regulatory and policy landscape, the development in
realised prices, including price differentials, tolls and
tariffs and other factors discussed elsewhere in the
report.

Production & Revenues
In the third quarter of 2025, new fields coming on
stream (Johan Castberg and Halten East) drove an
increase in production compared to the same quarter
last year. High production efficiency from Johan
Sverdrup, new wells and a lower impact from
turnarounds and maintenance more than offset
natural decline on several fields. Liquids production
had a greater increase than gas in the quarter,
driven by new fields coming on stream with higher
liquids share in the production mix.
Production increased slightly for the first nine months
of 2025 compared to the same period last year,
reflecting a stable underlying performance and
modest ramp-up from new fields during the first half
of the year.
Revenues in the third quarter of 2025 were slightly
higher than in the same quarter last year, as strong
production performance more than offset the effect
of lower liquids prices. For the first nine months of
2025, revenues increased compared to the same
period of 2024, driven by higher gas prices which
more than offset the decline in liquids prices.
Operating expenses and financial results
Operating and administrative expenses were stable
when compared to the third quarter of 2024, with the
reported increase reflecting the weakening of the
USD versus NOK. There was a one-off
transportation cost effect in the quarter in addition to
increases related to the Petoro swap, new fields
coming on stream, partially offset by an underlift
effect. The same factors drove the increase for the
first nine months of 2025 relative to 2024, except
that there was an overlift effect instead of underlift.
Depreciation, amortisation and net impairments in
the third quarter and the first nine months of 2025
was negatively impacted by ramp up of new fields
and field-specific investments, as well as the
development in the USD/NOK exchange rate. These
effects were partially offset by increased proved
reserves compared to the same periods last year.
The exploration activity in the third quarter of 2025
(18 wells) was higher than in the third quarter last
year (8 wells). The higher drilling cost was more than
offset by higher capitalisation rate and lower seismic
cost, leading to a decrease in exploration expenses.
When comparing the first nine months this year to
last year, the same explanatory factors are relevant,
but offsetting each other.
In the first nine months of 2025, net operating
income was positively impacted by a gain of USD
491 million from the swap transaction with Petoro.
Additions to PP&E, intangibles and equity accounted
investments in the first nine months of 2025 was
influenced by the assets acquired in the swap
transaction amounting to USD 1,086 million.

Production & Revenues
The divestment of assets in Azerbaijan and Nigeria
along with the production stop in Peregrino from mid-
August 2025, due to audit requirements from
Brazilian authorities, led to a decrease in production
in the third quarter and the first nine months of 2025
compared to the same periods last year. Natural
decline in several fields further contributed to the
overall drop in production levels. The decrease was
partially offset by contributions from new wells,
mainly in Argentina and Angola.
Production Sharing Agreements (PSA) effects were
reduced in the third quarter and the first nine months
of 2025 compared to the same periods last year,
reflecting the impact of the divestments and lower
liquids prices. 
Total revenues and other income decreased in the
third quarter and the first nine months of 2025
compared to the same periods last year primarily
due to lower volumes and liquids prices. Total
revenues and other income was positively impacted
by net overlift in the third quarter of 2025.
Operating expenses and financial results
Operating and administrative expenses were at a
similar level in the third quarter of 2025 compared to
the same quarter last year. The increase in the first
nine months of 2025 was mainly due to higher
operation and maintenance costs in Brazil and UK.
This was partially offset by the divestments.
The cessation of depreciation for the UK assets
classified as held for sale since December 2024, and
Peregrino, classified as held for sale since May
2025, drove the decline in adjusted depreciation,
amortisation and net impairments* in both the third
quarter and first nine months of 2025 compared to
the same periods in 2024.
Exploration expenses decreased in the third quarter
and the first nine months of 2025 compared to the
same periods in 2024, primarily due to expensed
wells in Canada in the third quarter of last year.
Expensed wells in Brazil and Argentina in the first
half of 2024 further contributed to the decrease in
the first nine months of 2025.
Net operating income in the third quarter and the first
nine months of 2025 was negatively impacted by an
impairment of assets held for sale in the UK
amounting to USD 650 million.
Additions to PP&E, intangibles and equity accounted
investments decreased in the the third quarter and
first nine months of 2025 compared to the same
periods last year. This decline was mainly due to the
UK assets and Peregrino being classified as held for
sale. The decrease was partially offset by higher
activity in Brazil.

E&P USA reported higher production volumes in the
third quarter and the first nine months of 2025
compared to the same periods in 2024. This
increase was primarily driven by greater gas output
from the Appalachia onshore assets following the
acquisition of additional interests in late 2024.
Elevated operational activity in the Appalachia region
during the first nine months of 2025 further
supported the production gains. US Offshore
production increased in the third quarter of 2025 due
to additional wells brought into production in the first
nine months of 2025. However, offshore production
remained flat over the first nine months when
compared to the first nine months of 2024.
Revenue for the third quarter and the first nine
months of 2025 benefitted from higher gas prices
and increased gas volumes. The third quarter of
2025 also benefitted from higher liquids production,,
partially offset by lower liquids prices, which limited
the overall increase in revenue.
Operating expenses and financial results
Operating and administrative expenses increased
during both the third quarter and the first nine
months of 2025. This increase was primarily driven
by an increase in asset retirement obligations
associated with changes in estimates of a late-life
offshore asset that ceased production during the
third quarter, as well as elevated transportation costs
resulting from increased production volumes in the
Appalachia onshore assets.
Adjusted depreciation, amortisation and net
impairments* remained stable in the third quarter of
2025 compared to the same period last year, as the
effect of higher depreciation from lower proved
reserve additions was largely offset by higher capital

additions and the acquisition of additional onshore
interests. In the first nine months of 2025, these
expenses increased relative to the same period in
2024. The increase was largely attributable to asset
retirement obligations recognised in the second
quarter of 2025 related to an offshore asset and
acquisition of further interests in Appalachia onshore
properties in late 2024 partially offset by upward
revisions to proved reserves recorded at year-end
2024.
Exploration expenses declined in the first nine
months of 2025 compared to the same period in
2024. The decrease was primarily due to reduced
non-commercial drilling activity.
In the third quarter and the first nine months of 2025,
net operating income was adversely affected by
impairments of USD 385 million related to two
producing assets in US Offshore, in addition to USD
36 million in exploration license write-downs.
The decrease in additions to PP&E, intangibles and
equity accounted investments in 2025, compared to
2024, is primarily attributed to the swap with EQT
closed in the second quarter of 2024. This resulted
in an increase in the Northern Marcellus formation
offset by a decrease from the Appalachia-operated
assets.

Volumes, Pricing & Revenues
Liquids sales volumes increased compared to the
previous quarter and against the first nine months of
previous year due to higher third party volumes.
Gas sales volumes increased compared both to the
previous quarter and against the first nine months of
previous year mostly explained by higher Equinor
international gas production.
Power generation has increased compared to the
previous quarter due to seasonality and at similar
levels when compared to the first nine months of
previous year.
The realised European piped gas price decreased
compared to the previous quarter due to weak gas
demand across Asia and Europe, combined with
growing LNG supplies. Compared to the same
quarter last year, the realised European piped gas
prices remained at similar levels.
The realised piped gas price in the US decreased
versus the previous quarter due to higher storage
levels and lower demand. Compared to the same
quarter last year, realised US gas price increased
due to lower storage levels and incremental LNG
export capacity.
Financial Results
In the third quarter of 2025, Gas and Power was the
main contributor to adjusted operating income*. The
result was driven by optimisation of piped gas
trading in Europe while US gas trading and LNG also
contributed with positive earnings despite
operational issues at Hammerfest LNG. The result
from Crude, Products and Liquids was weak during
the third quarter of 2025, negatively affected by
losses on hedging of shipping contracts and weak
speculative trading.
Adjusted operating income* decreased compared to
the previous quarter. This is mostly explained by
losses on hedging of shipping contracts and weaker
speculative trading results. This was partially offset
by higher result from LNG, US gas trading and
increased refining margins.
During the first nine months of 2025 adjusted
operating income* was lower than the same period
last year across most sub-segments primarily due to
lower results from LNG, crude, LPG trading and gas
infrastructure due to sale of assets.
Net operating income includes a net effect of USD
283 million in impairment reversals, net effect of fair
value changes in derivatives and storages, changes
in onerous provisions and operational storage value.

Power generation
Total power generation increased in both the third
quarter and the first nine months of 2025 compared
to the same periods in 2024, mainly reflecting higher
production from Dogger Bank A and the addition of
new onshore capacity. In the third quarter of 2025,
total power generation amounted to 0.88 TWh,
comprising 0.47 TWh from offshore wind farms and
0.41 TWh from onshore renewables.
For the first nine months of 2025, total power
generation reached 2.37 TWh, including 1.20 TWh
from offshore wind and 1.17 TWh from onshore
assets. Offshore wind power generation was
primarily driven by production from Dudgeon,
Sheringham Shoal, and Dogger Bank A, while
onshore volumes mainly came from plants in Brazil
and a new onshore acquisition in Sweden.
Total revenues and other income
In the third quarter and first nine months of 2025,
adjusted total revenues and other income* slightly
decreased compared to the same periods last year.
The decline primarily reflects lower contributions
from equity accounted investments, driven by
increased early-phase project development costs,
while revenues from operated activities remained
broadly stable.
Operating expenses and financial results
Adjusted operating and administrative expenses*
decreased significantly in the third quarter and the
first nine months of 2025 compared to the same
periods in 2024. The reduction mainly reflects lower
activity in development projects and lower business
development costs following the completion of early-
phase project work.
The adjusted operating loss* for the third quarter and
first nine months of 2025 was also lower than the
same period of 2024, attributable to the decrease in
project development costs and business
development costs.
The net operating loss for the first nine months of
2025 included a USD 955 million impairment loss for
Empire Wind 1/South Brooklyn Marine Terminal
project under construction and for the undeveloped
Empire Wind 2 lease. This impairment primarily
reflected reduced expected synergies from future
offshore wind projects resulting from regulatory
changes and increased exposure to tariffs, which
impacted the project economics negatively in the
second quarter.
In the third quarter of 2025, USD 29 million of
additions to PP&E, intangibles, and equity accounted
investments related to onshore renewables and USD
744 million related to offshore wind projects. The
offshore additions primarily reflect continued
investments in projects in the US and Europe.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Note 1. Organisation and basis of preparation
Organisation and principal activities
Equinor Group (Equinor) consists of Equinor ASA
and its subsidiaries. Equinor ASA is incorporated and
domiciled in Norway and listed on the Oslo Børs
(Norway) and the New York Stock Exchange (USA).
The registered office address is Forusbeen 50,
N-4035, Stavanger, Norway.
The objective of Equinor is to develop, produce and
market various forms of energy and derived products
and services, as well as other businesses. The
activities may also be carried out through
participation in or cooperation with other companies.
Equinor Energy AS, a 100% owned operating
subsidiary of Equinor ASA and owner of all of
Equinor's oil and gas activities and net assets on the
Norwegian continental shelf, is a co-obligor or
guarantor of certain debt obligations of Equinor ASA.
Equinor's condensed interim financial statements for
the third quarter of 2025 were authorised for issue by
the board of directors on 28 October 2025.
Basis of preparation
These condensed interim financial statements are
prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial
Reporting as issued by the International Accounting
Standards Board (IASB) and as adopted by the
European Union (EU). The condensed interim
financial statements do not include all the
information and disclosures required by IFRS®
Accounting Standards for a complete set of financial
statements and should be read in conjunction with
the Consolidated annual financial statements for
2024. IFRS Accounting Standards as adopted by the
EU differs in certain respects from IFRS Accounting
Standards as issued by the IASB, however the
differences do not impact Equinor's financial
statements for the periods presented.
Certain amounts in the comparable years have been
reclassified to conform to current year presentation.
As a result of rounding differences, numbers or
percentages may not add up to the total.
The condensed interim financial statements are
unaudited.
Accounting policies
Except as described in section ‘Change in
accounting policy’ below, the accounting policies
applied in the preparation of the condensed interim
financial statements are consistent with those
applied in the preparation of Equinor’s consolidated
annual financial statements as at, and for the year
ended,
31 December 2024.
A description of the material accounting policies is
included in Equinor’s consolidated annual financial
statements for 2024. When determining fair value,
there have been no changes to the valuation
techniques or models and Equinor applies the same
sources of input and the same criteria for
categorisation in the fair value hierarchy as disclosed
in the Consolidated annual financial statements for
2024.
For information about IFRS Accounting Standards,
amendments to IFRS Accounting Standards and
IFRIC® Interpretations effective from 1 January
2025, that could affect the consolidated financial
statements, please refer to note 2 in Equinor’s
consolidated annual financial statements for 2024.
None of the amendments to IFRS Accounting
Standards effective from 1 January 2025 has had a
significant impact on the condensed interim financial
statements. Equinor has not early adopted any IFRS
Accounting Standards, amendments to IFRS
Accounting Standards or IFRIC Interpretations
issued but not yet effective.
Change in accounting policy
With effect from Q1 2025, Equinor has changed the
classification of cash collaterals for commodity
derivative transactions in the Consolidated balance
sheet from Cash and cash equivalents to
Prepayments and financial receivables (current),
with no impact on Total current assets. These
collateral deposits are related to certain
requirements set out by exchanges where Equinor is
participating and have previously been referred to as
restricted cash and cash equivalents. The
reclassification is intended to better reflect the nature
and purpose of the collateral deposits and to provide
more relevant information to stakeholders.
The change also affects the presentation in the
Consolidated statement of cash flows. With effect
from Q1 2025, the cash flows related to these
collateral deposits are included within Cash flows
provided by operating activities on a new line-item
named Cash collaterals for commodity derivative
transactions.
The change has been retrospectively applied to
comparative periods for consistency and
comparability. The comparative numbers are
restated in tables below.
Use of judgements and estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity
with IFRS Accounting Standards requires
management to make judgments, estimates and
assumptions that affect the application of accounting
policies and the reported amounts of assets,
liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and
associated assumptions are reviewed on an on-
going basis and are based on historical experience
and various other factors that are believed to be
reasonable under the circumstances. These
estimates and assumptions form the basis for
making the judgments about carrying values of
assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from
these estimates. Please refer to
note 2 in Equinor’s consolidated annual financial
statements for 2024 for more information about
accounting judgement and key sources of estimation
uncertainty. Management’s future commodity price
assumptions applied in impairment and impairment
reversal assessments based on value in use were
updated with effect from the third quarter 2025. For
information on related impairments and reversals,
please refer to note 2 Segments. For impairments of
assets held for sale measured at fair value, please
see note 3 Acquisitions and disposals in this report.

Note 2. Segments
Equinor’s operations are managed through operating segments identified on the basis
of those components of Equinor that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating
decision maker, Equinor's Corporate Executive Officer (CEO). The reportable segments
Exploration & Production Norway (E&P Norway), Exploration & Production International
(E&P International), Exploration & Production USA (E&P USA), Marketing, Midstream &
Processing (MMP) and Renewables (REN) correspond to the operating segments. The
operating segments Projects, Drilling & Procurement (PDP), Technology, Digital &
Innovation (TDI) and Corporate staff and functions are aggregated into the reportable
segment Other based on materiality. The majority of the costs in PDP and TDI is
allocated to the three Exploration & Production segments, MMP and REN.
The accounting policies of the reporting segments equal those applied in these
condensed interim financial statements, except for the line-item Additions to PP&E,
intangibles and equity accounted investments in which movements related to changes
in asset retirement obligations are excluded. Further, provisions for onerous contracts
reflect only obligations towards group external parties. The measurement basis of
segment profit is net operating income/(loss). Deferred tax assets, pension assets,
non-current financial assets, total current assets and total liabilities are not allocated to
the segments. Transactions between the segments, mainly from the sale of crude oil,
gas, and related products, are performed at defined internal prices which have been
derived from market prices. The transactions are eliminated upon consolidation.
Net impairments
Net impairments in E&P USA in the third quarter relates to Equinor's offshore producing
assets in the Gulf of America, following reduced production estimates, increased cost
estimates, and lower future Brent price assumptions (75 USD/bbl during 2030-2040).
The net impairment reversal in MMP mainly relates to increased refinery margin
assumptions combined with extended economic lifetime of the relevant asset. For
information about net impairments in E&P International, see note 3 Acquisitions and
disposals.
In the second quarter of 2025, Equinor recognised net impairments in the REN
segment related to Equinor’s offshore wind projects on the US North East Coast.
Regulatory changes leading to reduced expected synergies from future offshore wind
projects and increased exposure to tariffs impacted the project economics for the
combined cash generating unit encompassing Empire Wind 1 (EW1) and South
Brooklyn Marine Terminal (SBMT) negatively, as well as the undeveloped Empire Wind
2 project. The impairment test employed a value in use methodology with a 3% real
post-tax discount rate, and the total carrying amount after impairment was USD 2.3

Acquisitions and disposals
Swap with Petoro in the Haltenbanken area
On 1 January 2025, Equinor closed a transaction with Petoro to swap ownership interests in the Haltenbanken
area. Equinor increased its ownership interests primarily in the Heidrun field (from 13.0% to 34.4%) and reduced its
interests primarily in the Tyrihans field (from 58.8% to 36.3%) and the Johan Castberg field (from 50.0% to 46.3%).
No cash consideration was involved. The purpose of the transaction was to align ownership interests in the
licenses to maximise resource utilisation. The assets acquired and liabilities assumed were recognised in
accordance with the principles in IFRS 3 Business Combinations within the E&P Norway segment, mainly as
property, plant, and equipment (USD 610 million), goodwill (USD 476 million) and deferred tax liability (USD 381
million). The swap resulted in a gain of USD 491 million, reported as Other Income in the Consolidated statement
of income.
Held for sale
Joint venture agreement with Shell in the UK
On 5 December 2024, Equinor and Shell agreed to merge their UK upstream businesses and establish a joint
venture, later named Adura. The parties will hold a 50% equity interest each. Selected UK North Sea upstream
fields, associated licenses and infrastructure will be transferred by both parties to Adura, including Equinor’s
interests in Rosebank, Mariner and Buzzard. The joint venture will be accounted for under the equity method upon
completion of the transaction. The majority of the required approvals are obtained, and completion is expected by
the end of 2025. The net assets classified as held for sale have been measured at fair value at the end of the third
quarter, leading to an impairment of USD 650 million mainly due to an update of expected future commodity price
assumptions. As of 30 September 2025, assets held for sale amounted to USD 7,291 million and liabilities directly
associated with the assets held for sale amounted to USD 768 million. Equinor’s UK upstream business is part of
the E&P International segment.
Agreement to sell all interests in the Peregrino field in Brazil
On 1 May 2025, Equinor entered into agreements with Prio Tigris Ltda., a subsidiary of PRIO SA, to sell its 60%
operating interest in the Peregrino field in Brazil as part of the ongoing optimisation of Equinor’s international
upstream portfolio. The agreements, one for the sale of a 40% interest and transfer of operatorship of Peregrino,
and the second for the sale of the remaining 20% interest, are subject to regulatory and legal approvals.
Completion of the transactions is expected within the first half of 2026. As of 30 September 2025, assets held for
sale amounted to USD 3,413 million, and liabilities directly associated with the assets held for sale amounted to
USD 717 million. The interests are part of the E&P International segment.

In the third quarter of 2025, Equinor confirmed its intention to participate in Ørsted’s DKK 60 billion rights issue,
announced on 11 August 2025, to maintain its 10% ownership stake in Ørsted. The net impact of the change in fair
value of Equinor’s shares in Ørsted during the third quarter, and the fair value of subscription rights held at the end
of the third quarter, represents a loss of around USD 0.4 billion. The subscription of additional shares for USD 0.9
billion has been settled in October.
In the second quarter of 2025, Equinor ASA issued bonds with maturities from 3 to 10 years for a total of USD 1.75
billion. The bonds were issued in USD and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed by Equinor Energy AS.
In the first nine months of 2025, Equinor has drawn on project financing for a total amount of USD 2.4 billion, of
which USD 0.6 billion was drawn in the third quarter of 2025. The amounts are included in Finance debt.
Equinor has a US Commercial paper programme available with a limit of USD 5 billion. As of 30 September 2025,
USD 1.7 billion were utilised compared to USD 4.1 billion utilised as of 31 December 2024.

The effective reported tax rate of 80.6% for the first nine months of 2025 increased compared to 70.0% in 2024 due
to higher share of income from jurisdictions with high tax rates and the extension of the Energy Profits Levy in the
UK. The tax rate is also influenced by the derecognition of deferred tax assets and an impairment related to the
joint venture agreement with Shell in the UK, see note 3. The increase was partly offset by currency effects in
entities that are taxable in other currencies than the functional currency and the tax exempted gain from the swap
with Petoro on the NCS.
The effective tax rate of 104.4% for the third quarter of 2025 increased compared to 68.6% in 2024. The increase

Note 8. Capital distribution
Dividend for the third quarter 2025
On 28 October 2025, the board of directors resolved to declare a cash dividend for the third quarter of 2025 of USD
0.37 per share. The Equinor shares will trade ex-dividend 16 February 2026 on the Oslo Børs and 17 February for
ADR holders on the New York Stock Exchange. Record date will be 17 February and payment date will be 27
February 2026.
Share buy-back programme 2025
Based on the authorisation from the annual general meeting on 14 May 2025, the board of directors will, on a
quarterly basis, decide on share buy-back tranches. The 2025 share buy-back programme is up to USD 5 billion,
including shares to be redeemed from the Norwegian state.
During the first six months, Equinor launched the first two tranches of USD 2.465 billion in total of which USD 662
million was acquired in the market in the first six months and USD 152 million was acquired in third quarter. In July
2025, Equinor launched the third tranche of USD 1,265 million including shares to be redeemed from the Norwegian
state, and entered into an irrevocable agreement with a third party to purchase shares for USD 418 million in the
market. Of this third tranche, shares for USD 299 million have been purchased in the market and settled as of 30
September 2025, whereas USD 418 million have been recognised as reduction in equity. The market execution of the
third tranche was completed in October 2025.
On 28 October 2025, the Board of Directors decided to initiate a fourth and final share buy-back tranche of up to USD
1,266 million for 2025, including shares to be redeemed from the Norwegian state. The fourth tranche will start
30 October 2025 and end no later than 2 February 2026.
In order to maintain the Norwegian state’s ownership share in Equinor at 67%, a proportionate share of the second,
third and fourth tranche of the 2024 programme as well as the first tranche of the 2025 programme was redeemed
and cancelled through a capital reduction by the annual general meeting on 14 May 2025. The Norwegian state’s
share of USD 4,141 million (NOK 42.7 billion) following the capital reduction was settled in July 2025. A proportionate
share of the second, third and fourth tranche of the 2025 programme will be redeemed and cancelled at the annual
general meeting in May 2026.

Note 9. Geopolitical and market uncertainty
Geopolitical and market uncertainty
The geopolitical and macroeconomic uncertainty relating to announcements and policy updates in the US
regarding international trade continue to prevail throughout 2025. As the policy changes, both substance and
duration, are developing, so are the implications for economic growth, demand for energy, supply costs, inflation,
interest rates and foreign exchange rates. Equinor is affected by the global macroeconomic conditions, which in
turn affect our financial performance. Given the current uncertainty, potential developments could unfold in
various directions. Equinor is actively assessing the impact of these uncertainties; however, the resulting
operational and economic effects on the company cannot fully be determined at this time.

Use and reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial
measures
Non-GAAP financial measures are defined as
numerical measures that either exclude or include
amounts that are not excluded or included in the
comparable measures calculated and presented in
accordance with GAAP (i.e., IFRS Accounting
Standards in the case of Equinor). The following
financial measures included in this report may be
considered non-GAAP financial measures:
Adjusted operating income is based on net
operating income/ (loss) and adjusts for certain items
affecting the income for the period to separate out
effects that management considers may not be well
correlated to Equinor’s underlying operational
performance in the individual reporting period.
Management believes adjusted operating income
provides an indication of Equinor’s underlying
operational performance and facilitates comparison
of operational trends between periods.
Adjusted operating income after tax equals
adjusted operating income less tax on adjusted
operating income. Tax on adjusted operating income
is computed by adjusting the income tax for tax
effects of adjustments made to net operating
income. The tax rate applied is the tax rate
applicable to each adjusting item and tax regime,
adjusted for certain foreign currency effects as well
as effects of specific changes to deferred tax assets.
Management believes adjusted operating income
after tax provides an indication of Equinor’s
underlying operational performance after tax and
facilitates comparisons of operational trends after tax
between periods as it reflects the tax charge
associated with operational performance excluding
the impact of financing. Tax on adjusted operating
income should not be considered indicative of the
amount of current or total tax expense (or taxes
payable) for the period.
Adjusted net income is based on net income/(loss)
and provides additional transparency to Equinor’s
underlying financial performance by also including
net financial items and the associated tax effects.
This measure includes adjustments made to arrive at
adjusted operating income after tax, in addition to
specific adjustments related to net financial items
and related tax effects, as well as certain
adjustments to income tax as described below.
Management believes this measure provides an
indication of Equinor’s underlying financial
performance including the impact from financing and
facilitates comparison of trends between periods.
Adjusted Earnings Per Share (Adjusted EPS) is
computed by dividing Adjusted net income by the
weighted average number of shares outstanding
during the period. Earnings per share is a metric that
is frequently used by investors, analysts and other
parties to assess a company's profitability per share.
Management believes this measure provides an
indication of Equinor’s underlying financial
performance including the impact from financing and
facilitates comparison of trends between periods.
The non-GAAP financial measures presented above
are supplementary measures and should not be
viewed in isolation or as substitutes for net operating
income/(loss), net income/(loss) and earnings per
share, which are the most directly comparable IFRS
Accounting Standards measures. The reconciliation
tables later in this report reconcile the above non-
GAAP measures to the most directly comparable
IFRS Accounting Standards measure or measures.
There are material limitations associated with the
above measures compared with the IFRS
Accounting Standards measures, as these non-
GAAP measures do not include all the items of
revenues/ gains or expenses/losses of Equinor that
are required to evaluate its profitability on an overall
basis. The non-GAAP measures are only intended to
be indicative of the underlying developments in
trends of our on-going operations.
Adjusted operating income adjusts for the
following items:
Changes in fair value of derivatives:
In the ordinary course of business, Equinor
enters into commodity derivative contracts to
manage the price risk exposure relating to future
sale and purchase contracts. These commodity
derivatives are measured at fair value at each
reporting date, with the movements in fair value
recognised in the income statement. By contrast,
the related sale and purchase contracts are not
recognised until the transaction occurs resulting
in timing differences. Therefore, the unrealised
movements in the fair value of these commodity
derivative contracts are excluded from adjusted
operating income and deferred until the time of
the physical delivery to minimise the effect of
these timing differences. Further, embedded
derivatives within certain gas contracts and
contingent consideration related to historical
divestments are carried at fair value. Any
accounting impacts resulting from such changes
in fair value are also excluded from adjusted
operating income, as these fluctuations are not

SUPPLEMENTARY
DISCLOSURES
indicative of the underlying performance of the
business.
Periodisation of inventory hedging effect:
Equinor enters into derivative contracts to
manage price risk exposure relating to its
commercial storage. These derivative contracts
are carried at fair value while the inventories are
accounted for at the lower of cost or market
price. An adjustment is made to align the
valuation principles of inventories with related
derivative contracts. The adjusted valuation of
inventories is based on the forward price at the
expected realisation date. This is so that the
valuation principles between commercial
storages and derivative contracts are better
aligned.
The operational storage is not hedged and is
not part of the trading portfolio. Cost of goods
sold is measured based on the FIFO (first-in,
first-out) method, and includes realised gains or
losses that arise due to changes in market
prices. These gains or losses will fluctuate from
one period to another and are not considered
part of the underlying operations for the period.
Impairment and reversal of impairment are
excluded from adjusted operating income since
they affect the economics of an asset for the
lifetime of that asset, not only the period in which
it is impaired, or the impairment is reversed.
Impairment and reversal of impairment can
impact both the exploration expenses and the
depreciation, amortisation and net impairment
line items.
Gain or loss from sales of assets is eliminated
from the measure since the gain or loss does not
give an indication of future performance or
periodic performance; such a gain or loss is
related to the cumulative value creation from the
time the asset is acquired until it is sold.
Eliminations (Internal unrealised profit on
inventories): Volumes derived from equity oil
inventory vary depending on several factors and
inventory strategies, i.e., level of crude oil in
inventory, equity oil used in the refining process
and level of in-transit cargoes. Internal profit
related to volumes sold between entities within
the group, and still in inventory at period end, is
eliminated according to IFRS Accounting
Standards (write down to production cost). The
proportion of realised versus unrealised gain
fluctuates from one period to another due to
inventory strategies and consequently impact net
operating income/ (loss). Write-down to
production cost is not assessed to be a part of
the underlying operational performance, and
elimination of internal profit related to equity
volumes is excluded in adjusted operating
income.
Other items of income and expense are
adjusted when the impacts on income in the
period are not reflective of Equinor’s underlying
operational performance in the reporting period.
Such items may be unusual or infrequent
transactions, but they may also include
transactions that are significant which would not
necessarily qualify as either unusual or
infrequent. However, other items adjusted do not
constitute normal, recurring income and
operating expenses for the company. Other items
are carefully assessed and can include
transactions such as provisions related to
reorganisation, early retirement, etc.
Change in accounting policy is adjusted when
the impacts on income in the period are unusual
or infrequent, and not reflective of Equinor’s
underlying operational performance in the
reporting period.
Adjusted net income incorporates the
adjustments above, as well as the following
items impacting net financial items:
Changes in fair value of financial derivatives
used to hedge interest bearing instruments.
Equinor enters into financial derivative contracts
to manage interest rate risk on long term interest-
bearing liabilities including bonds and financial
loans. The financial derivative contracts (hedging
instruments) are measured at fair value at each
reporting date, with movements in fair value
recognised in the income statement. The long
term interest-bearing liabilities are measured at
amortised cost and not remeasured at fair value
at each reporting date. This creates
measurement differences and therefore the
movements in the fair value of these financial
derivative contracts and associated tax effects
are excluded from the calculation of adjusted net
income and deferred until the time the underlying
instrument is matured, exercised, or settled.
Management believes that this appropriately
reflects the economic effect of these risk
management activities in each period and
provides an indication of Equinor’s underlying
financial performance.
Foreign currency gains/losses on positions
used to manage currency risk exposure
related to future payments in NOK and
foreign currency gains/losses on
intercompany bank balances. Foreign currency
gains/losses on positions used to manage
currency risk exposure (cash equivalents/
financial investments and related currency
derivatives where applicable), as well as
currency gains/losses on intercompany bank
balances are eliminated from adjusted net
income. The currency effects on intercompany
bank balances are mainly due to a large part of
Equinor’s operations having a functional currency
different from USD, and these effects are offset
within equity as other comprehensive income
arising on translation from functional currency to
presentation currency USD. These currency
effects increase volatility in financial
performance, which does not reflect Equinor’s
underlying financial performance. Management
believes that these adjustments remove periodic
fluctuations in Equinor’s adjusted net income.
Adjustments made to arrive at adjusted operating
income and adjusted net income listed below are
similarly applied to net income/(loss) from equity
accounted investments when relevant.

for. Management believes this better aligns the
effective tax rate in functional currency with the
statutory tax rate in the period.
Net debt to capital employed ratio – In Equinor’s
view, net debt ratios provide a more informative
picture of Equinor’s financial strength than gross
interest-bearing financial debt. Three different net
debt to capital ratios are presented in this report: 1)
net debt to capital employed, 2) net debt to capital
employed adjusted, including lease liabilities, and 3)
net debt to capital employed adjusted. These
calculations are all based on Equinor’s gross
interest-bearing financial liabilities as recorded in the
Consolidated balance sheet and exclude cash, cash
equivalents and current financial investments.
The following adjustments are made in calculating
the net debt to capital employed adjusted, including
lease liabilities ratio and the net debt to capital
employed adjusted ratio: financial investments held
in Equinor Insurance AS (classified as Current
financial investments in the Consolidated balance
sheet) are treated as non-cash and excluded from
the calculation of these non-GAAP measures, as
these investments are not readily available for the
group to meet short term commitments. These
adjustments result in a higher net debt figure and in
Equinor’s view provides a more prudent measure of
the net debt to capital employed ratio than would be
the case without such exclusions. Additionally, lease
liabilities are further excluded in calculating the net
debt to capital employed adjusted ratio. The table
Calculation of capital employed and net debt to
capital employed ratio later in this report details the
calculations for these non-GAAP measures and
reconciles them with the most directly comparable
IFRS Accounting Standards financial measure or
measures.
Organic capital expenditures (organic
investments/capex) – Capital expenditures is defined
as Additions to PP&E, intangibles and equity
accounted investments, which excludes assets held
for sale, as presented in note 2 Segments to the
Condensed interim financial statements. Organic
capital expenditures are capital expenditures
excluding expenditures related to acquisitions,
leased assets and other investments with
significantly different cash flow patterns. Equinor
believes this measure gives stakeholders relevant
information to understand the company’s
investments in maintaining and developing its
assets. Forward-looking organic capital expenditures
included in this report are not reconcilable to its most
directly comparable IFRS Accounting Standards
measure without unreasonable efforts, because the
amounts excluded from such IFRS Accounting
Standards measure to determine organic capital
expenditures cannot be predicted with reasonable
certainty.
Cash flows from operations after taxes paid
(CFFO after taxes paid) represents, and is used by
management, to evaluate cash generated from
operating activities after taxes paid, which is
available for investing activities, debt servicing and
distribution to shareholders. Cash flows from
operations after taxes paid is not a measure of our
liquidity under IFRS Accounting Standards and
should not be considered
in isolation or as a substitute for an analysis of our
results as reported in this report. Our definition of
Cash flows from operations after taxes paid is limited
and does not represent residual cash flows available
for discretionary expenditures. The table Calculation
of CFFO after taxes paid and net cash flow later in
this report provides a reconciliation of Cash flows
from operations after taxes paid to its most directly
comparable IFRS Accounting Standards measure,
Cash flows provided by operating activities before
taxes paid and working capital items, as of the
specified dates.
Net cash flow before capital distribution - Net
cash flow before capital distribution represents, and
is used by management to evaluate, cash generated
from operational and investing activities available for
debt servicing and distribution to shareholders. Net
cash flow before capital distribution is not a measure
of our liquidity under IFRS Accounting Standards
and should not be considered in isolation or as a
substitute for an analysis of our results as reported in
this report. Our definition of Net cash flow before
capital distribution is limited and does not represent
residual cash flows available for discretionary
expenditures. The table Calculation of CFFO after
taxes paid and net cash flow later in this report
provides a reconciliation of Net cash flow before
capital distribution to its most directly comparable
IFRS Accounting Standards measure, Cash flows
provided by operating activities before taxes paid
and working capital items, as of the specified dates.
Net cash flow - Net cash flow represents, and is
used by management to evaluate, cash generated
from operational and investing activities available for
debt servicing. Net cash flow is not a measure of our
liquidity under IFRS Accounting Standards and
should not be considered in isolation or as a

"will", "guidance", "targets", and similar expressions
to identify forward- looking statements. Forward-
looking statements include all statements other than
statements of historical fact, including, among
others, statements regarding Equinor's plans,
intentions, aims, ambitions and expectations; the
commitment to develop as a broad energy company
and diversify its energy mix; the ambition to be a

contractual arrangements; ambitions regarding
capital distributions and expected amount and timing
of dividend payments and the implementation of our
share buy-back programme; projected impact of
legal claims against us; and provisions and
contingent liabilities. You should not place undue
reliance on these forward-looking statements. Our
actual results could differ materially from those
anticipated in the forward-looking statements for
many reasons.
These forward-looking statements reflect current
views about future events, are based on
management’s current expectations and
assumptions and are, by their nature, subject to
significant risks and uncertainties because they
relate to events and depend on circumstances that
will occur in the future. There are a number of factors
that could cause actual results and developments to
differ materially from those expressed or implied by
these forward-looking statements, including levels of
industry product supply, demand and pricing, in
particular in light of significant oil price volatility;
unfavourable macroeconomic conditions and
inflationary pressures; exchange rate and interest
rate fluctuations; levels and calculations of reserves
and material differences from reserves estimates;
regulatory stability and access to resources,
including attractive low carbon opportunities; the
effects of climate change and changes in
stakeholder sentiment and regulatory requirements
regarding climate change; changes in market
demand and supply and policy support from
governments for renewables; inability to meet
strategic objectives; the development and use of
new technology; geopolitical, social and/or political
instability, including worsening trade relations and
tariffs; failure to prevent or manage digital and cyber
disruptions to our information and operational
technology systems and those of third parties on
which we rely; operational problems, including cost
inflation in capital and operational expenditures;
unsuccessful drilling; availability of adequate
infrastructure at commercially viable prices; the
actions of field partners and other third-parties;
reputational damage; the actions of competitors; the
actions of the Norwegian state as majority
shareholder and exercise of ownership by the
Norwegian state; changes or uncertainty in or non-
compliance with laws and governmental regulations;
adverse changes in tax regimes; the political and
economic policies of Norway and other oil-producing
countries; regulations on hydraulic fracturing and
low-carbon value chains; liquidity, interest rate,
equity and credit risks; risk of losses relating to
trading and commercial supply activities; an inability
to attract and retain personnel; ineffectiveness of
crisis management systems; inadequate insurance
coverage; health, safety and environmental risks;
physical security risks to personnel, assets,
infrastructure and operations from hostile or
malicious acts; failure to meet our ethical and social
standards; actual or perceived non-compliance with
legal or regulatory requirements; and other factors
discussed elsewhere in this report and in Equinor's
Integrated Annual Report for the year ended
December 31, 2024 (including section 5.2 - Risk
factors thereof). Equinor's 2024 Integrated Annual
Report is available at Equinor's website
www.equinor.com.
Although we believe that the expectations reflected
in the forward-looking statements are reasonable,
we cannot assure you that our future results, level of
activity, performance or achievements will meet
these expectations. Moreover, neither we nor any
other person assumes responsibility for the accuracy
and completeness of the forward-looking statements.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the
date on which such statement is made, and, except
as required by applicable law, we undertake no
obligation to update any of these statements after
the date of this report, either to make them conform
to actual results or changes in our expectations.
We use certain terms in this document, such as
"resource" and "resources", that the SEC's rules

PRESS

THIRD QUARTER
2025 REVIEW
CONDENSED INTERIM FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS AND NOTES
SUPPLEMENTARY
DISCLOSURES
End notes
1.The group's average liquids price is a volume
weighted average of the segment prices of crude
oil, condensate and natural gas liquids (NGL).
2.Liquids volumes include oil, condensate and
NGL, exclusive of royalty oil.
3.Equity volumes represent produced volumes
under a production sharing agreement (PSA)
that correspond to Equinor’s ownership share in
a field. Entitlement volumes, on the other hand,
represent Equinor’s share of the volumes
distributed to the partners in the field, which are
subject to deductions for, among other things,
royalty and the host government's share of profit
oil. Under the terms of a PSA, the amount of
profit oil deducted from equity volumes will
normally increase with the cumulative return on
investment to the partners and/or production from
the licence. Consequently, the gap between
entitlement and equity volumes will likely
increase in times of high liquids prices. The
distinction between equity and entitlement is
relevant to most PSA regimes, whereas it is not
applicable in most concessionary regimes such
as those in Norway, the UK, the US, Canada and
Brazil.
4.Transactions with the Norwegian state. The
Norwegian state, represented by the Ministry of
Trade, Industry and Fisheries, is the majority
shareholder of Equinor and it also holds major
investments in other entities. This ownership
structure means that Equinor participates in
transactions with many parties that are under a
common ownership structure and therefore meet
the definition of a related party. Equinor
purchases liquids and natural gas from the
Norwegian state, represented by SDFI (the
State's Direct Financial Interest). In addition,
Equinor sells the State's natural gas production
in its own name, but for the Norwegian state's
account and risk, and related expenditures are
refunded by the State.
5.The production guidance reflects our estimates of
proved reserves calculated in accordance with
US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)
guidelines and additional production from other
reserves not included in proved reserves
estimates.
6.The group's average realised piped gas prices
include all realised piped gas sales, including
both physical sales and related paper positions.
7.The internal transfer price paid from the MMP
segment to the E&P Norway, E&P International
and E&P USA segments.
8.Since different legal entities in the group lend to
projects and others borrow from banks, project
financing through external bank or similar
institutions is not netted in the balance sheet and
results in over-reporting of the debt stated in the
balance sheet compared to the underlying
exposure in the group. Similarly, certain net
interest-bearing debt incurred from activities
pursuant to the Marketing Instruction of the
Norwegian government are offset against
receivables on the SDFI. Some interest-bearing
elements are classified together with non-interest
bearing elements and are therefore included
when calculating the net interest-bearing debt.
