Objectives surpassed
We were able to generate value in a low crude oil price
scenario. We are prepared to maintain this strength
and update our plans for the future.

Dear shareholders,

As you well know, the most recent years have been marked by highly
volatile markets and low crude oil and gas prices. In this environment,
Repsol’s efforts have focused on the creation of value, flexibility, and the
diversification gained through the integration of the businesses. In 2017,
we obtained the highest adjusted net income in the last six years —an
indicator that specifically measures business performance— with a
25% increase to 2.405 billion euros (€B).

In 2017, Repsol was able to meet, and at times surpass, the objectives          Paul Ferneyhough
presented in the 2016–2020 Strategic Plan. We were able to create value         Corporate Director of Finance
                                                                                and Investor Relations of Repsol
with a $40/barrel Brent price, generate cash flow from business to pay
dividends to shareholders, reduce net debt, and maintain our credit rating
in line with the company’s expectations.

At the same time, Repsol reduced its net debt by 23% to €6.267 B at
year end, which sets the net debt to EBITDA at CSS ratio at 0.95, more
than sufficient to maintain the current triple B credit rating (BBB with
stable outlook).

We are pleased with what we have achieved up to now and have
met some of the targets established in our Strategic Plan ahead of
schedule. However, we know that now we are faced with the challenge of
maintaining this strength and capturing even more value now that crude oil
prices are recovering. To this end, we are working to update our Strategic
Plan, which will be published in June and establish new objectives for
2020. We will continue to work building on digitalization, technology, and
innovation in management as the key springboards of the company’s
current transformation.

We can only thank you for your support as shareholders and again ask for
your trust, so that we may continue to pursue Repsol’s great future plans.

                                2018 will be marked by strong growth in demand
