The market scenario remains characterised by great uncertainty about the economic and financial prospects, because of the COVID-19 pandemic, still spreading worldwide, and because of the uncertainty as regards the demand for oil and gas and related services. Consequently, during the period, the investment plans of the Oil Companies have been considerably downsized. In this context, on April 15, 2020, Saipem Board of Directors decided to withdraw the guidance announced to the market at the end of February when presenting 2019 annual results. Despite the fact that the current year is still experiencing the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, the backlog of orders to be carried out in the second half of the year will ensure the same volumes as in the first half. Initiatives to reduce overhead and operating costs, estimated at about €190 million for 2020, are expected to shore up the Group’s adjusted EBITDA margin in the second half of the year, which could reach the levels of the first six-month period. Added to this is the rescheduling of capital expenditure, down over €200 million compared to the projections made at the beginning of the year. This scenario does not take account of a further and possible tangible deterioration of business as a result of the intensification of the COVID-19 pandemic. Saipem has solid fundamentals underpinning the strategies adopted to decisively challenge the pandemic consequences and take advantages of opportunities during the recovery phase. Revenue amounted to €3,675 million (€4,519 million in the corresponding period of 2019), a decrease of 18.7% following the reduction in volumes across all divisions, the results of which have been impacted by the slowdown of projects and the postponement of certain activities agreed upon with clients as a result of the effects of the pandemic. The Offshore Engineering & Construction sector accounted for 40% of revenue; the Onshore Engineering & Construction sector contributed 48% of revenue; the Offshore Drilling sector 5% of revenue and the Onshore Drilling sector generated 7% of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA amounted to €355 million (€606 million in the first half of 2019), in line with the reduction in revenue. Adjusted net profit recorded a loss of €132 million compared to the profit of €60 million in the first half of 2019. Adjusted operating profit lowered from €308 to €42 million, with a reduction of €266 million, which was partially mitigated by the positive variation of €74 million, mainly generated by the improvement of the results from shareholdings and lower third party interests. Net profit recorded a loss of €885 million (profit of €14 million in the first half of 2019) and, unlike adjusted net profit, was impacted by the following special items: ≥ write-down of tangible assets of the Offshore Drilling Division for €590 million deriving from the impairment test in consideration of the increase by 1.6 percentage points of the cash flow net present value rate in addition to the review of the plan cash flow projections and the long term rates; ≥ write-down of tangible assets and related working capital, as well as of the right-of-use of a third-party asset for €99 million; ≥ contingent liabilities for about €20 million, in relation to a pending judgement on a project already completed, deriving from the activity of periodic legal monitoring of the evolution of the overall dispute; ≥ costs deriving from the healthcare emergency for about €44 million. This amount includes the costs incurred in the period directly attributable to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as costs for the resources on stand-by in cases in which the activities of operating sites and vessels were blocked by the authorities, for the purchase of personal protective equipment in excess of the standard quantities, for
