BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.a) Applicable accounting framework

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, 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, 2023 (“annual consolidated financial statements”) presented in U.S. dollars and in accordance with IFRS as issued by the IASB.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements corresponding to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, 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, 2024, does not necessarily reflect the proportion of the Group’s full-year net income.

2.b) Material accounting policies

The material 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 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.

The consolidated financial statements used by YPF for statutory, legal and regulatory purposes in Argentina are those in pesos and filed with the CNV and approved by the Board of Directors and authorized to be issued on November 7, 2024.

Share-based benefit plans

The Group maintains share-based benefit plans with the characteristics mentioned in Note 37 of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and Note 37 to the annual consolidated financial statements. Such plans are recorded in accordance with the guidelines set out in IFRS 2 “Share-based payment”.

 

  -

Equity-settled share-based payment transactions are recognized as a straight-line expense over the period of service based on the Group’s estimate of the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest considering their fair value at the grant date, with an offsetting credit entry in the “Share-based benefit plans” account in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity. At the end of each period, the Group reviews its estimate according to the number of equity instruments it expects will vest based on the grant conditions specified under the respective benefit plan.

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

 

 

  -

Cash-settled share-based payment transactions are recognized as a straight-line expense over the period of service based on the Group’s estimate of the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest with an offsetting entry in the “Salaries and social security” line item in the statement of financial position, measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recognized in net income in the statement of comprehensive income. At the end of each period, the Group reviews its estimate according to the number of equity instruments it expects will vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if applicable, is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.

Adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as from January 1, 2024

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, 2024, as described in Note 2.b.14) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

Standards and interpretations issued by the IASB as of January 1, 2024, whose application is not mandatory at the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and have not been adopted by the Group

In accordance with Article 1, Chapter III, Title IV of the CNV Rules, the early application of the IFRS and/or their amendments is not permitted for issuers filing financial statements with the CNV, unless specifically admitted by such agency.

 

 

IFRS 18 “Presentation and disclosure in financial statements”

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of financial statements”, with the objective of providing better information on the financial performance of entities, improving their comparability, which is applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2027.

IFRS 18 introduces the following information requirements that can be grouped into 2 main groups:

 

  -

Group income and expenses into 3 defined categories: (i) operating; (ii) financing and (iii) investing, and include certain defined subtotals, such as the operating result and the result before financing and income tax, with the aim of improving the comparability of the statement of comprehensive income.

  -

Provide more information about the performance measures defined by management, which, although not mandatory, in the event of including this type of measures, the entity must disclose the reason why said measures are useful to financial statements users, their method of calculation, a reconciliation between to the most directly comparable subtotal from the statement of comprehensive income, among others.

Additionally, IFRS 18 establishes more detailed guidance on how to organize information within the financial statements and whether it should be provided in the primary financial statements or in the notes, with the aim of improving the grouping of information in the financial statements.

As of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Group is in the process of evaluating the effects of the application of IFRS 18.

 

 

IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without public accountability: Disclosures”

In May 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 19 with the objective of allowing the option to apply simplified disclosure requirements in the financial statements of subsidiaries without public accountability and with a parent company, ultimate or intermediate, that prepares consolidated financial statements for public use in accordance with IFRS. Its application is optional for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2027.

Amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial instruments: Disclosures” - Amendments to the classification and measurement of financial instruments

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 related to certain issues regarding the classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9 and the disclosure requirements of IFRS 7, which are applicable for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026:

 

  -

Introduce an accounting policy option for the derecognition of a financial liability when settlement is made through an electronic payment system and certain conditions are met.

  -

Clarify on certain assessments that an entity must perform on its financial assets, for example to determine whether a financial instrument contains contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, or whether it also contains covenants of a contingent nature that could significantly change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows.

  -

Establish amendments to an entity’s disclosures about investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and the requirement to disclose contractual terms that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows in certain circumstances.

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

 

 

Annual Improvements to IFRS - Volume 11

In July 2024, the IASB issued the cycle of annual improvements Volume 11 which are applicable for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2026. In general terms, the improvements include amendments and/or clarifications on certain paragraphs, delete, add and/or update cross-references, replace terms and align the wording between different accounting standards, among others.

A summary of the main modified standards follows:

AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND COMPARATIVE INFORMATION

(Amounts expressed in millions of United States dollars, except for shares and per share amounts expressed in United States dollars, or as otherwise indicated)

 

2.

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

 

2.c) Significant estimates and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements at a certain date, the Group is required to make estimates and assessments affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and the contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recognized in the period. Actual future profit or loss might differ from the estimates and assessments made at the date of preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

The assumptions relating to the future and other key sources of uncertainty about the estimates made for the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used by the Group in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, which are disclosed in Note 2.c) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

2.d) Comparative information

Amounts and other information corresponding to the year ended December 31, 2023, are an integral part of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and are intended to be read only in relation to these financial statements, considering the changes in comparative figures as mentioned in Note 6. Amounts corresponding to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023, presented in these financial statements for comparison purposes correspond to the functional currency of the company according to IAS 21 (see Note 2.b)).

Additionally, from this fiscal year, the Group has made a change in the presentation of the items in the “Financial results, net” line item in the statement of comprehensive income (see Note 29). This change is intended to provide more relevant and detailed information on the origin of financial results and the effects of transactions or conditions that affect the financial situation, financial performance, and cash flows of the Group such as interests and exchange differences generated by loans, among others; and improve the comparability of the Group’s financial statements with its peers.

 

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 higher prices.

 

4.

ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS

Dissolution of the company YPF International

On May 6, 2024, the Plurinational Service of Registry of Commerce (“SEPREC” by its acronym in Spanish) of Bolivia approved the dissolution and liquidation of YPF International.

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, 2024, 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.

 

 

Liquidity risk management

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. Such organizational structure is based on the way in which the chief decision maker analyzes the main operating and financial 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 chief decision maker to allocate resources and assess business segment performance.

The business segment structure is organized as follows:

It incurs all costs related to the activities mentioned above.

On July 1, 2024, certain assets related to the production of frac sand for well drilling/fracking purposes, which were formerly included in Upstream business segment, were assigned to Central Administration and Others. In addition, the comparative information for fiscal year ended December 31, 2023, has been restated.

 

 

Downstream

The Downstream business segment performs activities related to: (i) crude oil refining and the production of petrochemical products; (ii) logistics related to the transportation of crude oil to the refineries and the transportation and distribution of refined and petrochemical products to be marketed at the different sales channels; (iii) commercialization of refined and petrochemical products obtained from such processes; (iv) commercialization of crude oil; and (v) commercialization of specialties for the agribusiness industry and of grains and their by-products.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

AS OF SEPTEMBER 30, 2024 AND COMPARATIVE INFORMATION

(Amounts expressed in millions of United States dollars, except for shares and per share amounts expressed in United States dollars, or as otherwise indicated)

17. PROVISIONS (cont.)

 

Provisions are described in Note 16 to the annual consolidated financial statements. Updates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 are described below:

17.a) Provision for lawsuits and contingencies

Environmental claims

 

 

La Plata

On August 29, 2024 the Court of Appeals confirmed the obligation to cease and remedy the environmental damage determined in the first instance. The co-defendants filed an extraordinary appeal to the CSJN and, as of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, such appeal is pending resolution.

18. INCOME TAX

According to IAS 34, income tax expense is recognized in each interim period based on the best estimate of the effective income tax rate expected as of the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, considering the tax criteria that the Group assumes to apply during the fiscal year. If the estimate of such rate is modified based on new elements of judgment, the income tax expense could require adjustments in subsequent periods.

In relation to such tax criteria, the income tax expense contemplates the application of the integral inflation adjustment mechanism applicable to property, plant and equipment, and the indexation of the accumulated tax losses carryforward until the concurrence of the projected tax result of the fiscal year 2024, all considering that the assumption of confiscation would be verified in accordance with the jurisprudence of the CSJN in force as of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

The Group considers having strong arguments to successfully defend such assumed tax criteria, in the event of a possible controversy with the tax authorities, in accordance with the guidelines of IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over income tax treatments”. As of September 30, 2024, the assumed tax criteria generates a profit of 416.

The income tax charge for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2024 is a profit of 987. The amount accrued for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:

 

     For the nine-month periods ended
September 30,
     2024   2023

Current income tax

     (87)       (31)  

Deferred income tax

31. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s capital amounts to 3,922 and treasury shares amount to 11 represented by 393,312,793 book-entry shares of common stock and divided into four classes of shares (A, B, C and D), with a par value of 10 pesos and 1 vote per share. These shares are fully subscribed, paid-in and authorized for stock exchange listing.

As of September 30, 2024, there are 3,764 Class A outstanding shares. As long as any Class A share remains outstanding, the affirmative vote of the Argentine Government is required for: (i) mergers; (ii) acquisitions of more than 50% of YPF shares in an agreed or hostile bid; (iii) transfers of all the YPF’s production and exploration rights; (iv) the voluntary dissolution of YPF; (v) change of corporate and/or tax address outside Argentina; or (vi) make an acquisition that would result in the purchaser holding 15% or more of the Company’s capital stock, or 20% or more of the outstanding Class D shares. Items (iii) and (iv) also require prior approval by the Argentine Congress.

On April 26, 2024, the General Shareholders’ Meeting was held, which approved the statutory financial statements of YPF (see Note 2.b)) corresponding to the year ended on December 31, 2023 and, additionally, approved the following in relation to the retained earnings: (i) completely disaffect the reserve for future dividends, the reserve for purchase of treasury shares and the reserve for investments; (ii) absorb accumulated losses in unappropriated retained earnings and losses up to the amount of 1,003,419 million of pesos (US$ 1,244 million); (iii) allocate the amount of 28,745 million of pesos (US$ 36 million) to constitute a reserve for purchase of treasury shares; and (iv) allocate the amount of 3,418,972 million of pesos (US$ 4,236 million) to constitute a reserve for investments.

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company has not repurchased any of its own shares.

32. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table shows the net profit or loss and the number of shares that have been used for the calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share:

 

     For the nine-month periods ended
September 30,
     2024          2023

Net profit

     2,638          548    

Weighted average number of shares outstanding

     392,063,964                    391,587,602  

Basic and diluted earnings per share

     6.73          1.40  

There are no YPF financial instruments or other contracts outstanding that imply the existence of potential ordinary shares, thus the diluted earnings per share matches the basic earnings per share.

33. CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

33.a) Contingent assets

The Group has no significant contingent assets.

33.b) Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities are described in Note 33.b) to the annual consolidated financial statements. Updates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, are described below:

Contentious claims

 

 

Petersen Energía Inversora, S.A.U. and Petersen Energía, S.A.U. (collectively, “Petersen”) - Eton Park Capital Management, L.P., Eton Park Master Fund, LTD. and Eton Park Fund, L.P. (collectively, “Eton Park”, and together with Petersen, the “Plaintiffs”)

The appeals filed by the parties in these proceedings (see Note 33.b.2) to the annual consolidated financial statements) were fully briefed by September 6, 2024. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals will set a date for oral argument.

On April 1, 2024, Plaintiffs filed a turnover motion, which became public (and accessible to YPF) on April 22, 2024. This motion requests that the District Court order the Republic to turn over the YPF Class D shares held by the Republic to Plaintiffs in partial satisfaction of the District Court’s judgment against the Republic in this proceeding.

(Amounts expressed in millions of United States dollars, except for shares and per share amounts expressed in United States dollars, or as otherwise indicated)

33. CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (cont.)

 

Plaintiffs and the Republic completed their briefing on the turnover motion on July 8, 2024. The District Court may, but is not required to, hold oral argument prior to rendering a decision on the turnover motion. Furthermore, the District Court’s decision on the turnover motion may be appealed by Plaintiffs or the Republic in accordance with applicable procedural rules. YPF is not a party to the turnover motion.

Plaintiffs are also seeking discovery of documents from YPF related to their theory that YPF could be an “alter ego” of the Republic. YPF denies that it is an alter ego and objected to Plaintiffs’ document requests. On May 28, 2024, the District Court ordered YPF to produce documents in response to Plaintiffs’ discovery requests. To date, Plaintiffs have not requested that the District Court find that YPF is an alter ego of the Republic, and the District Court’s order on discovery is not a ruling accepting Plaintiffs’ alter ego theory.

On August 12, 2024, YPF filed a brief requesting that the District Court permanently enjoin Plaintiffs from pursuing recovery from YPF in connection with their September 15, 2023 final judgment against the Republic, arguing that Plaintiffs’ alter ego theory is barred under the doctrine of res judicata. Plaintiffs filed their opposition and YPF filed its reply. On August 29, 2024, the District Court adjourned the oral argument initially scheduled for September 3, 2024, without setting a new date.

YPF will continue to defend itself in accordance with the applicable legal procedures and available defenses.

The Company will continue to reassess the status of the litigation and its possible impact on the results and financial situation of the Group, as needed.

34. CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS

34.a) Exploitation concessions, transport concessions and exploration permits

The most relevant agreements, exploitation concessions, transport concessions and exploration permits that took place in the year ended December 31, 2023 are described in Note 34.a) to the annual consolidated financial statements. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, there were no significant updates.

34.b) Investment agreements and commitments and assignments

The most relevant investment agreements and commitments and assignments are described in Note 34.b) to the annual consolidated financial statements. Updates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, are described below:

Andes Project

In August and September 2024 YPF signed assignment agreements for 9 asset groups (25 conventional areas), subject to the fulfillment of closing conditions including applicable regulatory and provincial approvals. The Company continues to develop the process of assignment or reversion of the remaining assets available for sale, as well as compliance with the closing conditions indicated above. Considering the elements of judgment available at such date, the Company expects to comply with the plan within the terms and conditions duly approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 29, 2024. See Note 9.

On October 29, 2024, Decree No. 1,509/2024 was published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Chubut, authorizing the assignment of 100% of YPF’s rights in the “Escalante - El Trébol” exploitation concession in favor of PECOM SERVICIOS ENERGIA S.A.U. (“PECOM”) and subjecting the extension of such concession to the fulfillment of certain conditions by YPF and by PECOM. As of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the assignment agreement is subject to the fulfillment of closing conditions.

This regime seeks to encourage investments, promote economic development, create employment and strengthen local production chains.

The RIGI is aimed at investment projects in the forestry industry, tourism, infrastructure, mining, technology, iron and steel, energy and oil and gas sectors, with a minimum investment per sector or subsector or productive stage equal to or greater than a range between US$ 200,000,000 up to US$ 900,000,000 in computable assets, as established by the application authority. Interested parties have 2 years to adhere to the RIGI, submitting and obtaining the approval of an investment plan by the application authority.

The benefits of the RIGI include a 25% income tax rate, accelerated amortization of investments, non-expirable tax loss carryforwards, indexing tax losses by the Internal Wholesale Price Index (“IPIM”) published by the INDEC, and exemptions from import and export duties, among others. In addition, foreign exchange incentives are established, such as the free availability of foreign currency on a staggered basis obtained from exports and certain flexibility related to financing. The RIGI guarantees tax, customs and foreign exchange regulatory stability for 30 years from accession, protecting investment projects from more burdensome legislative changes.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Amounts expressed in millions of United States dollars, except for shares and per share amounts expressed in United States dollars, or as otherwise indicated)

36. BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (cont.)

 

In addition, the Company performed an external benchmark analysis of the Board of Directors’ fees and compensation of first-line executives. The conclusions were presented to the Compensation and Nomination Committee and, as a result, the components of the total compensation package were aligned with YPF’s strategic plan and market standards for local and international listed companies of similar magnitude.

As detailed in Note 37, a “Value Generation Plan” applicable to eligible members of YPF’s Management and a variable compensation based on results (“CVR”) which applies to 100% of the Company’s employees, with the exception of the President and CEO and commercial agents, were implemented.

37. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS AND SIMILAR OBLIGATIONS

Note 37 to the annual consolidated financial statements describes the main characteristics and accounting treatment for employee benefit plans and similar obligations implemented by the Group.

Retirement plan

The amount charged to expense related to the Retirement Plan was 3 and 2 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Performance bonus programs

These programs cover certain of the Group’s personnel and are paid in cash. These bonuses are mainly based on compliance with VPs and related management objectives. They are calculated considering the annual compensation of each employee and certain key factors related to the fulfillment of these objectives. As of 2024, a new variable bonus program based on corporate results (“CVR”) was implemented. This will be paid based on the Group’s net profit before income tax, if it is positive.

The amount charged to expense related to the performance bonus programs was 165 and 78 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Share-based benefit plans

In April 2024, the Company adopted the “Value Generation Plan”, which is a long-term remuneration program for eligible members of management of YPF with the objective of incentivizing extraordinary results in the long term and retaining key employees. Under this Plan, the Company granted 4.6 million performance stock appreciation rights (“PSARs”) to plan participants comprising key employees of the Company. The PSARs provide beneficiaries the opportunity to receive an award to be settled in cash equivalent to the appreciation in the value of the common shares of the Company over a specified period of time. The amount to be paid upon exercise is the difference between the per share base price determined by the plan and the per share market value of the Company’s common shares as of the exercise date. The PSARs expire five years after their grant and begin to vest in the third year, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, including performance milestones related to the price of the Company’s common shares ranging from a minimum of US$ 30 per common share up to US$ 60 per common share. The beneficiaries of the PSARs are also required to remain in the Company for three years from the granting of the plan. The PSARs granted by the Company have a base price of US$ 16.17 per share, resulting in a weighted average fair value of US$ 8.75 per PSAR as of the granting date. The Value Generation Plan was approved by the Compensation and Nomination Committee of the Company with the support of a management consulting firm (Mercer) which advised on its design and implementation.

As of September 30, 2024, there are 4.6 million number of PSARs outstanding with and a weighted average fair value of US$ 9.89 per PSARs.

PSARs expense is determined based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. Fair value is calculated using Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the Company’s shares, expected term and risk-free interest rate.

The amount charged to expense in relation with Value generation Plan was 7, for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024.

The amount charged to expense in relation with the remainder of the share-based plans was 5 and 2 to be settled in equity instruments, and 8 and 13 to be settled in cash, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Note 2.b) describes the accounting policies for share-based benefit plans. Repurchases of treasury shares are disclosed in Note 31.

  -

  -

2. BASIS OF PREPARATION OF THE CONDENSED INTERIM CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

2.a) Applicable accounting framework

The condensed interim consolidated financial statements of the Company for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, 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, 2023 (“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 Rules have been included.

These condensed interim consolidated financial statements corresponding to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, 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, 2024, does not necessarily reflect the proportion of the Group’s full-year net income.

2.b) Material accounting policies

The material 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 CNV Rules, the Company must present its financial statements in pesos.

Share-based benefit plans

The Group maintains share-based benefit plans with the characteristics mentioned in Note 37 of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and Note 37 to the annual consolidated financial statements. Such plans are recorded in accordance with the guidelines set out in IFRS 2 “Share-based payment”.

 

  -

Equity-settled share-based payment transactions are recognized as a straight-line expense over the period of service based on the Group’s estimate of the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest considering their fair value at the grant date, with an offsetting credit entry in the “Share-based benefit plans” account in the statement of changes in shareholders’ equity. At the end of each period, the Group reviews its estimate according to the number of equity instruments it expects will vest based on the grant conditions specified under the respective benefit plan.

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

 

  -

Cash-settled share-based payment transactions are recognized as a straight-line expense over the period of service based on the Group’s estimate of the number of equity instruments that will eventually vest with an offsetting entry in the “Salaries and social security” line item in the statement of financial position, measured at fair value. Changes in the fair value of the liability are recognized in net income in the statement of comprehensive income. At the end of each period, the Group reviews its estimate according to the number of equity instruments it expects will vest based on the non-market vesting conditions. The impact of the revision of the original estimates, if applicable, is recognized in the statement of comprehensive income.

Adoption of new standards and interpretations effective as from January 1, 2024

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, 2024, as described in Note 2.b.14) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

Standards and interpretations issued by the IASB as of January 1, 2024, whose application is not mandatory at the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements and have not been adopted by the Group

In accordance with Article 1, Chapter III, Title IV of the CNV Rules, the early application of the IFRS and/or their amendments is not permitted for issuers filing financial statements with the CNV, unless specifically admitted by such agency.

 

 

IFRS 18 “Presentation and disclosure in financial statements”

In April 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 18, which replaces IAS 1 “Presentation of financial statements”, with the objective of providing better information on the financial performance of entities, improving their comparability, which is applicable to fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2027.

IFRS 18 introduces the following information requirements that can be grouped into 2 main groups:

 

  -

Group income and expenses into 3 defined categories: (i) operating; (ii) financing and (iii) investing, and include certain defined subtotals, such as the operating result and the result before financing and income tax, with the aim of improving the comparability of the statement of comprehensive income.

 

  -

Provide more information about the performance measures defined by management, which, although not mandatory, in the event of including this type of measures, the entity must disclose the reason why said measures are useful to financial statements users, their method of calculation, a reconciliation between to the most directly comparable subtotal from the statement of comprehensive income, among others.

Additionally, IFRS 18 establishes more detailed guidance on how to organize information within the financial statements and whether it should be provided in the primary financial statements or in the notes, with the aim of improving the grouping of information in the financial statements.

As of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the Group is in the process of evaluating the effects of the application of IFRS 18.

 

 

IFRS 19 “Subsidiaries without public accountability: Disclosures”

In May 2024, the IASB issued IFRS 19 with the objective of allowing the option to apply simplified disclosure requirements in the financial statements of subsidiaries without public accountability and with a parent company, ultimate or intermediate, that prepares consolidated financial statements for public use in accordance with IFRS. Its application is optional for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2027.

Amendments to IFRS 9 “Financial instruments” and IFRS 7 “Financial instruments: Disclosures” - Amendments to the classification and measurement of financial instruments

In May 2024, the IASB issued amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7 related to certain issues regarding the classification and measurement requirements of IFRS 9 and the disclosure requirements of IFRS 7, which are applicable for periods beginning on or after January 1, 2026:

 

  -

Introduce an accounting policy option for the derecognition of a financial liability when settlement is made through an electronic payment system and certain conditions are met.

 

  -

Clarify on certain assessments that an entity must perform on its financial assets, for example to determine whether a financial instrument contains contractual cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest, or whether it also contains covenants of a contingent nature that could significantly change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows.

 

  -

Establish amendments to an entity’s disclosures about investments in equity instruments measured at fair value through other comprehensive income, and the requirement to disclose contractual terms that could change the timing or amount of contractual cash flows in certain circumstances.

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

 

 

Annual improvements to IFRS - Volume 11

In July 2024, the IASB issued the cycle of annual improvements Volume 11 which are applicable for fiscal years beginning on or after January 1, 2026. In general terms, the improvements include amendments and/or clarifications on certain paragraphs, delete, add and/or update cross-references, replace terms and align the wording between different accounting standards, among others.

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

 

2.c) Significant estimates and key sources of estimation uncertainty

In preparing the financial statements at a certain date, the Group is required to make estimates and assessments affecting the amount of assets and liabilities recorded and the contingent assets and liabilities disclosed at such date, as well as income and expenses recognized in the period. Actual future profit or loss might differ from the estimates and assessments made at the date of preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements.

The assumptions relating to the future and other key sources of uncertainty about the estimates made for the preparation of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements are consistent with those used by the Group in the preparation of the annual consolidated financial statements, which are disclosed in Note 2.c) to the annual consolidated financial statements.

2.d) Comparative information

Amounts and other information corresponding to the year ended December 31, 2023 and to the nine-month period ended September 30, 2023 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 have been made to the comparative figures in Notes 6 and 25 as mentioned in Note 5 to the annual consolidated financial statements and Note 6.

Additionally, from this fiscal year, the Group has made a change in the presentation of the items in the “Financial results, net” line item in the statement of comprehensive income (see Note 29). This change is intended to provide more relevant and detailed information on the origin of financial results and the effects of transactions or conditions that affect the financial situation, financial performance, and cash flows of the Group such as interests and exchange differences generated by loans, among others; and improve the comparability of the Group’s financial statements with its peers. The comparative information for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2023 has been restated. “Financial income” line item in the statement of comprehensive income decreased by 561,806 and 288,907, for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively; “Financial costs” line item in the statement of comprehensive income decreased by 398,713 and 188,197, for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively; and “Other financial results” line item in the statement of comprehensive income increased by 163,093 and 100,710, for the nine and three-month periods ended September 30, 2023, respectively. This change had no effect on the Group’s statements of financial position, statements of changes in shareholders’ equity, statements of cash flows, Net financial results 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 higher prices.

4. ACQUISITIONS AND DISPOSALS

Dissolution of the company YPF International

On May 6, 2024, the Plurinational Service of Registry of Commerce (“SEPREC” by its acronym in Spanish) of Bolivia approved the dissolution and liquidation of YPF International.

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. Such organizational structure is based on the way in which the chief decision maker analyzes the main operating and financial magnitudes for making decisions about resource allocation and performance assessment, also considering the business strategy of the Group.

Business segment information is presented in U.S. dollars, the functional currency of the Company (see Note 2.b)), consistently with the manner of reporting the information used by the chief decision maker to allocate resources and assess business segment performance.

The business segment structure is organized as follows:

It incurs all costs related to the activities mentioned above.

On July 1, 2024, certain assets related to the production of frac sand for well-drilling/fracking purposes, which were formerly included in Upstream business segment, were assigned to Central Administration and Others. In addition, the comparative information for fiscal year ended December 31, 2023 and the period ended September 30, 2023, has been restated.

 

 

Downstream

The Downstream business segment performs activities related to: (i) crude oil refining and the production of petrochemical products; (ii) logistics related to the transportation of crude oil to the refineries and the transportation and distribution of refined and petrochemical products to be marketed at the different sales channels; (iii) commercialization of refined and petrochemical products obtained from such processes; (iv) commercialization of crude oil; and (v) commercialization of specialties for the agribusiness industry and of grains and their by-products.

17. PROVISIONS (cont.)

 

Provisions are described in Note 16 to the annual consolidated financial statements. Updates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024 are described below:

17.a) Provision for lawsuits and contingencies

Environmental claims

 

 

La Plata

On August 29, 2024 the Court of Appeals confirmed the obligation to cease and remedy the environmental damage determined in the first instance. The co-defendants filed an extraordinary appeal to the CSJN and, as of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, such appeal is pending resolution.

18. INCOME TAX

According to IAS 34, income tax expense is recognized in each interim period based on the best estimate of the effective income tax rate expected as of the closing date of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, considering the tax criteria that the Group assumes to apply during the fiscal year. If the estimate of such rate is modified based on new elements of judgment, the income tax expense could require adjustments in subsequent periods.

In relation to such tax criteria, the income tax expense contemplates the application of the integral inflation adjustment mechanism applicable to property, plant and equipment, and the indexation of the accumulated tax losses carryforward until the concurrence of the projected tax result of the fiscal year 2024, all considering that the assumption of confiscation would be verified in accordance with the jurisprudence of the CSJN in force as of the date of issuance of these consolidated financial statements.

The Group considers having strong arguments to successfully defend such assumed tax criteria, in the event of a possible controversy with the tax authorities, in accordance with the guidelines of IFRIC 23 “Uncertainty over income tax treatments”. As of September 30, 2024, the assumed tax criteria generates a profit of 365,505.

The income tax charge for the nine-month period ending September 30, 2024 is a profit of 929,100. The amount accrued for the nine-month periods ending September 30, 2024 and 2023 is as follows:

 

    

For the nine-month periods

ended September 30,

 

 

     2024          2023  

Current income tax

     (84,685 )          (10,869 )  

Deferred income tax

     1,013,785          (17,889
     929,100          (28,758

31. SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY

As of September 30, 2024, the Company’s capital amounts to 3,922 and treasury shares amount to 11 represented by 393,312,793 book-entry shares of common stock and divided into four classes of shares (A, B, C and D), with a par value of 10 pesos and 1 vote per share. These shares are fully subscribed, paid-in and authorized for stock exchange listing.

As of September 30, 2024, there are 3,764 Class A outstanding shares. As long as any Class A share remains outstanding, the affirmative vote of the Argentine Government is required for: (i) mergers; (ii) acquisitions of more than 50% of YPF shares in an agreed or hostile bid; (iii) transfers of all the YPF’s production and exploration rights; (iv) the voluntary dissolution of YPF; (v) change of corporate and/or tax address outside Argentina; or (vi) make an acquisition that would result in the purchaser holding 15% or more of the Company’s capital stock, or 20% or more of the outstanding Class D shares. Items (iii) and (iv) also require prior approval by the Argentine Congress.

On April 26, 2024, the General Shareholders’ Meeting was held, which approved the statutory financial statements of YPF corresponding to the year ended on December 31, 2023 and, additionally, approved the following in relation to the retained earnings: (i) completely disaffect the reserve for future dividends, the reserve for purchase of treasury shares and the reserve for investments; (ii) absorb accumulated losses in unappropriated retained earnings and losses up to the amount of 1,003,419; (iii) allocate the amount of 28,745 to constitute a reserve for purchase of treasury shares; and (iv) allocate the amount of 3,418,972 to constitute a reserve for investments.

During the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company has not repurchased any of its own shares.

32. EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table shows the net profit or loss and the number of shares that have been used for the calculation of the basic and diluted earnings per share:

 

     For the nine-month periods
ended September 30,
 
        2024                2023     

Net profit

     2,387,951           66,714   

Weighted average number of shares outstanding

     392,063,964           391,587,602   

Basic and diluted earnings per share

     6,090.72           170.37   

There are no YPF financial instruments or other contracts outstanding that imply the existence of potential ordinary shares, thus the diluted earnings per share matches the basic earnings per share.

33. CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES

33.a) Contingent assets

The Group has no significant contingent assets.

33.b) Contingent liabilities

Contingent liabilities are described in Note 33.b) to the annual consolidated financial statements. Updates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, are described below:

Contentious claims

 

  Petersen Energía Inversora, S.A.U. and Petersen Energía, S.A.U. (collectively, “Petersen”) - Eton Park Capital Management, L.P., Eton Park Master Fund, LTD. and Eton Park Fund, L.P. (collectively, “Eton Park”, and together with Petersen, the “Plaintiffs”)

The appeals filed by the parties in these proceedings (see Note 33.b.2) to the annual consolidated financial statements) were fully briefed by September 6, 2024. The Second Circuit Court of Appeals will set a date for oral argument.

On April 1, 2024, Plaintiffs filed a turnover motion, which became public (and accessible to YPF) on April 22, 2024. This motion requests that the District Court order the Republic to turn over the YPF Class D shares held by the Republic to Plaintiffs in partial satisfaction of the District Court’s judgment against the Republic in this proceeding.

33. CONTINGENT ASSETS AND LIABILITIES (cont.)

 

Plaintiffs and the Republic completed their briefing on the turnover motion on July 8, 2024. The District Court may, but is not required to, hold oral argument prior to rendering a decision on the turnover motion. Furthermore, the District Court’s decision on the turnover motion may be appealed by Plaintiffs or the Republic in accordance with applicable procedural rules. YPF is not a party to the turnover motion.

Plaintiffs are also seeking discovery of documents from YPF related to their theory that YPF could be an “alter ego” of the Republic. YPF denies that it is an alter ego and objected to Plaintiffs’ document requests. On May 28, 2024, the District Court ordered YPF to produce documents in response to Plaintiffs’ discovery requests. To date, Plaintiffs have not requested that the District Court find that YPF is an alter ego of the Republic, and the District Court’s order on discovery is not a ruling accepting Plaintiffs’ alter ego theory.

On August 12, 2024, YPF filed a brief requesting that the District Court permanently enjoin Plaintiffs from pursuing recovery from YPF in connection with their September 15, 2023 final judgment against the Republic, arguing that Plaintiffs’ alter ego theory is barred under the doctrine of res judicata. Plaintiffs filed their opposition and YPF filed its reply. On August 29, 2024, the District Court adjourned the oral argument initially scheduled for September 3, 2024, without setting a new date.

YPF will continue to defend itself in accordance with the applicable legal procedures and available defenses.

The Company will continue to reassess the status of the litigation and its possible impact on the results and financial situation of the Group, as needed.

34. CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENTS

34.a) Exploitation concessions, transport concessions and exploration permits

The most relevant agreements, exploitation concessions, transport concessions and exploration permits that took place in the year ended December 31, 2023 are described in Note 34.a) to the annual consolidated financial statements. During the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, there were no significant updates.

34.b) Investment agreements and commitments and assignments

The most relevant investment agreements and commitments and assignments are described in Note 34.b) to the annual consolidated financial statements. Updates for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024, are described below:

Andes Project

In August and September 2024 YPF signed assignment agreements for 9 asset groups (25 conventional areas), subject to the fulfillment of closing conditions including applicable regulatory and provincial approvals. The Company continues to develop the process of assignment or reversion of the remaining assets available for sale, as well as compliance with the closing conditions indicated above. Considering the elements of judgment available at such date, the Company expects to comply with the plan within the terms and conditions duly approved by the Board of Directors of the Company on February 29, 2024. See Note 9.

On October 29, 2024, Decree No. 1,509/2024 was published in the Official Gazette of the Province of Chubut, authorizing the assignment of 100% of YPF’s rights in the “Escalante - El Trébol” exploitation concession in favor of PECOM SERVICIOS ENERGIA S.A.U. (“PECOM”) and subjecting the extension of such concession to the fulfillment of certain conditions by YPF and by PECOM. As of the date of issuance of these condensed interim consolidated financial statements, the assignment agreement is subject to the fulfillment of closing conditions.

36. BALANCES AND TRANSACTIONS WITH RELATED PARTIES (cont.)

 

In addition, the Company performed an external benchmark analysis of the Board of Directors’ fees and compensation of first-line executives. The conclusions were presented to the Compensation and Nomination Committee and, as a result, the components of the total compensation package were aligned with YPF’s strategic plan and market standards for local and international listed companies of similar magnitude.

As detailed in Note 37, a “Value Generation Plan” applicable to eligible members of YPF’s Management and a variable compensation based on results (“CVR”) which applies to 100% of the Company’s employees, with the exception of the President and CEO and commercial agents, were implemented.

37. EMPLOYEE BENEFIT PLANS AND SIMILAR OBLIGATIONS

Note 37 to the annual consolidated financial statements describes the main characteristics and accounting treatment for employee benefit plans and similar obligations implemented by the Group.

Retirement plan

The amount charged to expense related to the Retirement Plan was 2,890 and 667 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Performance bonus programs

These programs cover certain of the Group’s personnel and are paid in cash. These bonuses are mainly based on compliance with VPs and related management objectives. They are calculated considering the annual compensation of each employee and certain key factors related to the fulfillment of these objectives. As of 2024, a new variable bonus program based on corporate results (“CVR”) was implemented. This will be paid based on the Group’s net profit before income tax, if it is positive.

The amount charged to expense related to the performance bonus programs was 152,788 and 31,284 for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Share-based benefit plans

In April 2024, the Company adopted the “Value Generation Plan”, which is a long-term remuneration program for eligible members of management of YPF with the objective of incentivizing extraordinary results in the long term and retaining key employees. Under this Plan, the Company granted 4.6 million performance stock appreciation rights (“PSARs”) to plan participants comprising key employees of the Company. The PSARs provide beneficiaries the opportunity to receive an award to be settled in cash equivalent to the appreciation in the value of the common shares of the Company over a specified period of time. The amount to be paid upon exercise is the difference between the per share base price determined by the plan and the per share market value of the Company’s common shares as of the exercise date. The PSARs expire five years after their grant and begin to vest in the third year, subject to the fulfillment of certain conditions, including performance milestones related to the price of the Company’s common shares ranging from a minimum of US$ 30 per common share up to US$ 60 per common share. The beneficiaries of the PSARs are also required to remain in the Company for three years from the granting of the plan. The PSARs granted by the Company have a base price of US$ 16.17 per share, resulting in a weighted average fair value of US$ 8.75 per PSAR as of the granting date. The Value Generation Plan was approved by the Compensation and Nomination Committee of the Company with the support of a management consulting firm (Mercer) which advised on its design and implementation.

As of September 30, 2024, there are 4.6 million number of PSARs outstanding with and a weighted average fair value of US$ 9.89 per PSARs.

PSARs expense is determined based on the grant-date fair value of the awards. Fair value is calculated using Monte Carlo simulation model, which requires the input of highly subjective assumptions, including the fair value of the Company’s shares, expected term and risk-free interest rate.

The amount charged to expense in relation with Value generation Plan was 6,762 for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2024.

The amount charged to expense in relation with the remainder of the share-based plans was 4,119 and 392 to be settled in equity instruments, and 8,395 and 3,411 to be settled in cash, for the nine-month periods ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
