BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.a) Basis of preparation

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 are presented in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting”. Therefore, they should be read together with the annual consolidated financial statements of the Company as of December 31, 2022 (“annual consolidated financial statements”) presented in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

Moreover, some additional information required by the LGS and/or CNV’s regulations have been included.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements were approved by the Board of Directors’ meeting and authorized to be issued on November 8, 2023.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements corresponding to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 are unaudited. The Company believes they include all necessary adjustments to reasonably present the results of each period on a basis consistent with the audited annual consolidated financial statements. Net Income for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 does not necessarily reflect the proportion of the Group’s full-year Net Income.

2.b) Significant accounting policies

The significant accounting policies are described in Note 2.b) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, except for the valuation policy for income tax detailed in Note 18.

Functional and presentation currency

As mentioned in Note 2.b.1) to the annual consolidated financial statements, YPF has defined the U.S. dollar as its functional currency. Additionally, in accordance with the provisions of the LGS and the regulation of the CNV, the Company must present its financial statements in pesos.

BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.)

 

On October 28, 2022, CNV General Resolution No. 941/2022 was published in the BO, which introduced certain provisions for issuers whose functional currency differs from the legal currency in Argentina, which for their own transactions develop presentation and disclosure accounting policies in which the translation differences originated in the retained earnings and reserves accounts are filed in line with the items originating them. As a consequence of this Resolution, from fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, the Company’s Board of Directors decided, as an accounting policy, to directly classify and accumulate translation differences generated by retained earnings at the beginning and end of the fiscal year in the items of “Legal reserves”, “Reserve for future dividends”, “Reserve for investments”, “Reserve for purchase of treasury shares” and “Unappropriated retained earnings and losses”, in the Shareholders’ Equity, in compliance with the provisions of Note 2.b.1) to the annual consolidated financial statements. For the sake of uniformity of the comparative information reported in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, translation differences accumulated in “Other comprehensive income” have been appropriated to the aforementioned equity items as of September 30, 2022, in compliance with IAS 8 “Accounting policies, changes in accounting estimates and errors”.

Effects of the translation of investments in subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures with a functional currency corresponding to a hyperinflationary economy

The results and financial position of subsidiaries with the peso as functional currency are translated into U.S. dollars by the following procedures: All amounts (i.e., assets, liabilities, stockholders’ equity items, expenditures and revenues) are translated at the exchange rate effective at the closing date of the financial statements, except for comparative amounts, which are presented as current amounts in the financial statements of the previous fiscal year (i.e., these amounts are not adjusted to reflect subsequent variations in the general level of prices or exchange rates). Thus, the effect of the restatement of comparative amounts is recognized in “Other comprehensive income” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income.

These criteria are also implemented by the Company for its investments in associates and joint ventures.

Adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as from January 1, 2023

The Company has adopted all new and revised standards and interpretations, issued by the IASB, relevant to its operations which are of mandatory and effective application as of September 30, 2023, as described in Note 2.b.26) to the annual consolidated financial statements. New and revised standards and interpretations which had a significant impact on these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are described below:

•    Amendments to IAS 12 “Income taxes” - Deferred tax related to assets and liabilities arising from a single transaction

The amendments introduce an exception to the initial recognition exemption, with specifications on how entities should account for the income tax and the deferred tax in transactions in which the initial recognition of assets and liabilities give rise, at the same time, to equal amounts of taxable and deductible temporary differences. Therefore, in transactions where an asset and a liability are recognized, for example in relation to leases and abandonment or decommissioning obligations, the deferred tax generated by such transactions should be recognized.

On January 1, 2023, in compliance with the amendments mentioned above, the Group breaks down deferred tax assets and liabilities arising from right-of-use-assets and lease liabilities. Also, the comparative information for fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 has been restated in compliance with IAS 12 amendments (see Note 18). However, this had no effect on initial retained earnings.

•    Amendments to IAS 12 - International Tax Reform - Pillar Two Model Rules

In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 12 related to the Pillar Two Model Rules of the International Tax Reform (“Reform”) developed by the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (“OECD”), which are applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2023.

These amendments introduce a temporary exception to the requirements of IAS 12, allowing an entity not to recognize or disclose information about deferred taxes arising from the income tax effects of applying the Reform. Additionally, it requires certain additional disclosures in the annual financial statements.

BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.)

 

As of the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the abovementioned amendments have had no effects on the Group as there is no tax regulatory framework related to such Reform in the jurisdictions where the Group operates. However, the Group is monitoring possible future changes in tax regulations.

Standards and interpretations issued by the IASB as from January 1, 2023, the application of which is not mandatory as of the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and have not been adopted by the Group

On August 15, 2023, CNV General Resolution No. 972/2023 was published in the BO, which provides that the earlier application of the IFRS and/or their amendments will not be allowed, unless specifically allowed by the CNV.

•    Amendments to IAS 7 “Statement of cash flows” and IFRS 7 “Financial instruments: Disclosures” - Supplier finance arrangements

In May 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 7 and IFRS 7 related to supplier finance arrangements, which are applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2024.

These amendments introduce new disclosure requirements of qualitative and quantitative information in the annual financial statements related to the mentioned supplier finance arrangements, such as contractual terms, carrying amounts of financial liabilities, settlements made, maturity dates, etc. The amendments do not require comparative information disclosure.

As of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Group is analyzing the effects of implementing these amendments, even though it does not expect them to have a significant impact on its financial statements.

•    Amendments to IAS 21 “Effects of changes in foreign exchange rates” - Lack of exchangeability

In August 2023, the IASB issued amendments to IAS 21 related to the methodology to be applied where there is a lack of exchangeability between two currencies, which are applicable for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025.

These amendments eliminate the applicable methodology described in IAS 21 where there was a temporary lack of exchangeability between currencies, and introduce the definition of exchangeability between currencies and an analysis approach that requires each entity to identify whether a currency is exchangeable into another currency for each specific purpose for which such currency would be obtained following a series of parameters, such as an assessment of whether the currency is obtained within an ordinary administrative period, the ability to obtain said currency, among others. Once the absence of exchangeability between currencies has been identified, the exchange rate should be estimated to represent that which would be obtained in an orderly transaction between market participants and which reflects economic conditions. These amendments do not specify a methodology for estimating the exchange rate to be used, which must be developed by each entity.

Additionally, these amendments incorporate disclosure requirements such as a description of the restrictions giving rise to the absence of exchangeability, a qualitative and quantitative description of the transactions involved, the types of exchange rates used and their estimation method, a description of the risks to which the entity is exposed due to the absence of exchangeability, among others.

As of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Group is evaluating the effects of implementing these amendments.

2.c) Accounting estimates and judgments

The preparation of financial statements at a certain date requires the Company to make estimates and assessments affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded, contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recorded during the period. Actual future results might differ from the estimates and assessments made as of the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

2.    BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (cont.)

 

In preparing these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, significant estimates and judgments were made by the Company in applying the accounting policies and the main sources of uncertainty were consistent with those applied by the Group in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, which are disclosed in Notes 2.b) and 2.c) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

Review of impairment indicators of property, plant and equipment

As explained in Notes 2.b.8) and 2.b.9) to the annual consolidated financial statements, as a general criteria, the method used to estimate the recoverable amount of Property, plant and equipment consists of estimating the value-in-use based on the future expected cash flows arising from the use of such assets, discounted at a rate that reflects the weighted average cost of the capital employed.

Regarding interim periods, IAS 34 requires entities to apply the impairment testing of assets. When an entity has previously recognized impairment losses of assets, it is necessary to review the calculations made at the end of the period if the indicators that gave rise to such losses continue to remain present. To such end, the entity shall revise the existence of significant indicators of impairment or reversals since the end of the last fiscal year and determine whether it has to proceed or not with such impairment testing of assets.

2.d) Comparative information

Amounts and other information corresponding to the year ended December 31, 2022 and to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022 are an integral part of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and are intended to be read only in relation to these financial statements. Likewise, changes in comparative figures as mentioned in Notes 2.b), 6 and 25 and certain additional disclosures of non-significant information have been made.

Additionally, as of the year ended December 31, 2022 the Group has made a change in the turnover tax charge presentation in the “Taxes, charges and contributions” line under “Selling expenses” (see Note 27), which was previously included in “Revenues”. The comparative information for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2022 has been restated. “Revenues” and “Selling expenses” increased by 54,033 and 22,792, respectively. This change had no effect on the Group’s statement of financial position, statement of changes in shareholders’ equity, statement of cash flows, operating profit or loss and net profit or loss.

3.    SEASONALITY OF OPERATIONS

Historically, the Group’s results have been subject to seasonal fluctuations throughout the year, particularly as a result of the increase in natural gas sales during the winter driven by the increased demand in the residential segment. Consequently, the Group is subject to seasonal fluctuations in its sales volumes and prices, with higher sales of natural gas during the winter at a higher price.

4.    ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSITIONS

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, there were no significant acquisitions and dispositions.

5.    FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT

The Group’s activities expose it to a variety of financial risks: Market risk (including exchange rate risk, interest rate risk, and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Within the Group, risk management functions are conducted in relation to financial risks associated to financial instruments to which the Group is exposed during a certain period or as of a specific date.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, there were no significant changes in the administration or policies of risk management implemented by the Group as described in Note 4 to the annual consolidated financial statements.

5.  FINANCIAL RISK MANAGEMENT (cont.)

 

•    Liquidity risk management

Most of the Group’s loans contain market-standard covenants for contracts of this nature, which include financial covenants in respect of the Group’s leverage ratio and debt service coverage ratio, and events of defaults triggered by materially adverse judgements, among others. See Notes 16, 32 and 33 to the annual consolidated financial statements and Notes 17, 33 and 34.

The Group monitors compliance with covenants on a quaterly basis. As of September 30, 2023, the Group is in compliace with its covenants.

It should be noted that, under the terms and conditions of the loans that our subsidiary Metrogas has taken with Industrial and Commercial Bank of China Limited - Dubai Branch and Itaú Unibanco - Miami Branch, the interest coverage ratio would not have been complied with, which could have accelerated the maturities of these financial liabilities. However, the financial creditors formally accepted to waive Metrogas from complying with the contractual obligation related to such financial ratio, as of September 30, 2023.

6.    BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

The different business segments in which the Group’s organization is structured consider the different activities from which the Group can obtain revenues and incur expenses. This organizational structure is based on the way in which the highest decision-making authority analyzes the main financial and operating magnitudes for making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment, also considering the business strategy of the Group. Business segment information is presented consistently with the manner of reporting the information used by the highest decision-making authority to allocate resources and assess business segment performance.

As mentioned in Note 5 to the annual consolidated financial statements, business segment information is presented in U.S. dollars, the Company’s functional currency (see Note 2.b.1) to the annual consolidated financial statements).

Due to the division of the Downstream Vice Presidency into the Commercialization Vice Presidency and the Industrialization Vice Presidency, from this fiscal year the new management scope of these new business units has been defined. These organizational changes resulted in a modification of the business segment structure in accordance with the manner in which the highest decision-making authority allocates resources and assesses the performance of such segments, dividing the Downstream segment into the Commercialization segment and the Industrialization segment, which, in addition, implied readjustments in the composition and definition of the businesses of the other segments. These business segment changes did not affect the CGUs defined in Note 2.b.8) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

In consideration of the above paragraphs, the comparative information for fiscal year ended December 31, 2022, and the period ended September 30, 2022, has been restated.

The business segment structure is organized as follows:

•    Upstream

The Upstream segment performs all activities related to the exploration and exploitation and production of crude oil, natural gas and frac sand for well drilling.

Its revenues are largely derived from: (i) the sale of the crude oil produced to the Industrialization and Commercialization segments; (ii) the sale of the natural gas produced to the Commercialization segment; and (iii) the sale of the natural gas retained in plant to the Gas and Power and Commercialization segments.

This segment incurs all costs related to the activities mentioned above.

On January 1, 2023 certain assets related to the exploration, exploitation and production of frac sand for well-drilling, which were formerly included in Central Administration and Others, were assigned to the Upstream segment. In addition, the comparative information for fiscal year ended December 31, 2022 and the period ended September 30, 2022, has been restated.

The Group has no financial liabilities measured at fair value with changes in results.

Fair value estimates

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, there have been no changes in macroeconomic circumstances that significantly affect the Group’s financial instruments measured at fair value.

During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, there were no transfers between the different hierarchies used to determine the fair value of the Group’s financial instruments.

Fair value of financial assets and financial liabilities measured at amortized cost

The estimated fair value of loans, considering unadjusted listed prices (Level 1) for NO and interest rates offered to the Group (Level 3) for the remaining financial loans, amounted to 2,567,151 and 1,029,019 as of September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2022, respectively.

The fair value of other receivables, trade receivables, investments in financial assets, cash and cash equivalents, other liabilities and accounts payable at amortized cost, do not differ significantly from their book value.

The Group permanently monitors the outlook of the businesses where it operates. In general, it analyzes macroeconomic variables such as price indexes and currency devaluation, among others, and in particular, for the natural gas market, the demand volume to be covered and natural gas sales prices.

As of September 30, 2023, based on the evolution of the variables and the methodology mentioned in Note 2.c), the Group recognized an impairment of property, plant and equipment charge for the CGU Gas - Neuquina Basin of 176,769 (114,900 net of the income tax), generated by a combination of variables, including mainly, a higher competition in the natural gas market which may lead to a drop in natural gas sales prices in the medium and long term and a consequent decline in our production. The post-tax discount rate used as of September 30, 2023 was 14.89%, being the post-tax recoverable value at such date of the CGU Gas - Neuquina Basin of 876,128.
