Clean CCS Operating Result1

In EUR mn

Clean CCS Operating Result (bar chart)
1 Operating Result adjusted for special items and CCS effects.

With a result of EUR 5.1 bn, OMV achieved a strong clean CCS Operating Result in 2024. It declined from the 2023 result by 15% driven by a less favorable market environment. While the contribution from Chemicals increased substantially, the clean CCS Operating Result of Fuels & Feedstock and Energy decreased following lower natural gas sales, oil prices and refining margins.

Clean CCS Group tax rate1

Clean CCS Group tax rate (bar chart)
1 Group tax rate adjusted for special items and CCS effects. It represents the average rate at which the Group’s profit before tax is taxed.

Coming in at 45%, the clean CCS Group tax rate increased by 2 percentage points compared to 43% in the previous year, stemming from an increased share in the overall Group profits of the Energy segment companies located in countries with a high tax regime.

Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders of the parent1

In EUR mn

Clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders of the parent (bar chart)
1 Net income attributable to stockholders of the parent, adjusted for the after-tax effect of special items and CCS.

The clean CCS net income attributable to stockholders of the parent in the amount of EUR 2.1 bn decreased compared to EUR 2.6 bn in 2023 following the Operating Result.

Leverage ratio1

Leverage ratio (bar chart)
1 The leverage ratio is calculated by dividing net debt incl. leases through equity plus net debt incl. leases.

OMV’s financial performance resulted in only a moderate increase in the leverage ratio to 12% in 2024 from 8% in the previous year. This continues to demonstrate OMV’s financial strength despite ongoing investing activities and while maintaining a high dividend payout to shareholders.

Clean CCS ROACE1

Clean CCS ROACE (bar chart)
1 The clean CCS ROACE (%) is calculated as Net Operating Profit After Tax (NOPAT – as a sum of the current and last three quarters) adjusted for the after-tax effect of special items and CCS, divided by average capital employed.

Driven by the strong operational performance, OMV was able to deliver a clean CCS of EUR 2.7 bn in 2024, compared to EUR 3.3 bn in 2023. The marginal increase in average capital employed of 1% and the lower clean CCS NOPAT led to a decrease in the clean CCS from 12% in 2023 to 10% in 2024.

Cash flow from operating activities excl. net working capital effects (bar chart)

Organic capital expenditure1

In EUR mn

Organic capital expenditure (bar chart)
1 The amount is defined as capital expenditure including capitalized exploration and appraisal expenditure, excluding equity injections into at-equity and fully consolidated companies, acquisitions, and contingent considerations.
