REPORT ON REVIEW OF INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL INFORMATION TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF

ABU DHABI NATIONAL OIL COMPANY FOR DISTRIBUTION PJSC

Introduction

We have reviewed the accompanying interim condensed consolidated statement of financial position of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company for Distribution PJSC ("ADNOC Distribution" or "the Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "the Group") as at 31 March 2024 and the related interim condensed consolidated statement of profit or loss and the interim condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the three-month period then ended and the interim condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity and the interim condensed consolidated statement of cash flow for the three-month period then ended and other related explanatory notes. Management is responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim condensed consolidated financial information in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on this interim condensed consolidated financial information based on our review.

Scope of review

We conducted our review in accordance with International Standard on Review Engagements 2410, "Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity". A review of interim financial information consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with International Standards on Auditing and consequently does not enable us to obtain assurance that we would become aware of all significant matters that might be identified in an audit. Accordingly, we do not express an audit opinion.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the accompanying interim condensed consolidated financial information is not prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with International Accounting Standard 34, 'Interim Financial Reporting' as issued by the IASB.

ABU DHABI NATIONAL OIL COMPANY FOR DISTRIBUTION PJSC

Notes to the interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the three-month period ended 31 March 2024

1. General information

Abu Dhabi National Oil Company for Distribution PJSC ("ADNOC Distribution" or the "Company"), formerly Abu Dhabi National Oil Company for Distribution, is a company incorporated by Law No. 13 of 1973 issued by His Highness the Acting Ruler of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.

On 22 November 2017, Law No. 15 of 2017 (the "New Law of Establishment") was issued replacing Law No. 13 of 1973 in respect of the incorporation of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company for Distribution PJSC, a public joint stock company registered with the commercial register in Abu Dhabi under commercial licence number CN-1002757 issued by Abu Dhabi Department of Economic Development. The Articles of Association of the Company became effective as of 22 November 2017, at the same time that the New Law of Establishment was issued and became effective. The duration of the Company is 100 Gregorian years commencing on the date of issuance of the New Law of Establishment.

The head office of the Company and ADNOC Distribution Global Company L.L.C. ("ADGC LLC") are registered at P.O. Box 4188, Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates. The Company, ADGC LLC and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as the "Group". The Company's shares are listed on the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange.

The principal activities of the Group are the marketing of petroleum products, natural gas and ancillary products. The Group owns retail fuel stations in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), the Arab Republic of Egypt and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The Group is a marketer and distributor of fuels and lubricants to corporate and government customers throughout the UAE. In addition, the Group provides refueling and related services at eight airports in the UAE and provides a compressed natural gas distribution network in Abu Dhabi. The Group also exports its proprietary Voyager lubricants to distributors in various countries, across the GCC, Africa and Asia. The Group operates "ADNOC Oasis" convenience stores at a majority of its service stations, and leases retail and other space to tenants, such as quick service restaurants.

The Group also performs marketing activities and the distribution of petroleum products, motor oils, fuels and specialties in Egypt. In addition, it is also involved in constructing, owning and operating cafeterias through service stations in Egypt.

2. Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS)

The following new and revised IFRSs, which became effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2024, have been applied in these interim condensed consolidated financial statements:

  • Amendment to IFRS 16 - Leases on sale and leaseback
    These amendments include requirements for sale and leaseback transactions in IFRS 16 to explain how an entity accounts for a sale and leaseback after the date of the transaction. Sale and leaseback transactions where some or all the lease payments are variable lease payments that do not depend on an index or rate are most likely to be impacted.
  • Amendment to IAS 1 - Non-current liabilities with covenants
    These amendments clarify how conditions with which an entity must comply within twelve months after the reporting period affect the classification of a liability. The amendments also aim to improve information an entity provides related to liabilities subject to these conditions.
  • Amendment to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 - Supplier finance
    These amendments require disclosures to enhance the transparency of supplier finance arrangements and their effects on an entity's liabilities, cash flows and exposure to liquidity risk. The disclosure requirements are the IASB's response to investors' concerns that some companies' supplier finance arrangements are not sufficiently visible, hindering investors' analysis.
