Circumstances Surrounding JXTG Group The global economic growth in this fiscal year generally slowed down given the slowdown in China due to the effect of U.S.-China trade friction and the weak market conditions in Europe, despite the solid U.S. Economy. In addition, the global economy has rapidly deteriorated toward the end of this fiscal year due to the spread of novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19). The Dubai crude oil price, which is the benchmark crude oil price in Asia, was 68 dollars per barrel at the beginning of this fiscal year. However, the price significantly dropped to 23 dollars per barrel at the end of this fiscal year due to not only a concern over a demand decline on the back of the spread of COVID-19 but also an attention on an oversupply to be caused by an increase in crude oil production announced by countries such as Saudi Arabia and Russia. The LME (London Metal Exchange) price for copper, which is the international index price for copper, was 6,498 dollars per ton at the beginning of this fiscal year. However, the price significantly dropped to 4,797 dollars per ton at the end of this fiscal year due to a concern over the deterioration of the economy following the spread of COVID-19. The Japanese economy remained in a moderate recovery trend in the first half of this fiscal year, but started to show signs of weakness in the second half, and then sharply declined due to stagnant economic activities caused by the spread of COVID-19. In addition to these economic circumstances, the domestic demand for petroleum products was generally lower than the previous fiscal year due to reasons such as a decrease in gasoline resulting from fuel-efficient vehicles becoming more prevalent and a decrease in kerosene affected by the record warm winter. B. Outline of the Consolidated Results of this Fiscal Year In this business situation, JXTG Group worked vigorously to enhance the profitability of its core business and promoted management that focuses on cash flows and capital efficiency in order to achieve the targets under the First Medium-Term Management Plan (FY 2017 to FY 2019). The results and business summaries of each business segment are as described from page 6. However, the consolidated results of this fiscal year were as set forth in the following chart, due not only to the impact by the deterioration of the environment for supply-demand balance for petrochemical products but also to a sharp decline in the crude oil price toward the end of this fiscal year which resulted in a significant contraction of the margin for petroleum products in Japan and overseas. In the Energy Business in particular, we are required to stockpile at least 70 days’ worth of crude oil and petroleum products pursuant to the “Oil Stockpiling Act,” and accordingly, we recorded an inventory valuation loss of 206.5 billion yen. In addition, in the Oil and Natural Gas Exploration and Production (E&P) Business, we recorded an impairment loss of approximately 92.1 billion yen following the revaluation of the asset portfolio.

Progress and Results of Each Business Energy Business Results of the Energy Business This fiscal year Previous fiscal year Change from the previous Item (10th fiscal term) (9th fiscal term) fiscal year Revenue 8,419.4 billion yen 9,481.3 billion yen (1,061.9) billion yen Operating income (162.8) billion yen 375.4 billion yen (538.2) billion yen [Operating income excluding [43.7 billion yen] [354.1 billion yen] [(310.4) billion yen] inventory valuation] Business Summary Domestic demand for fuel oil continues to decrease. On the other hand, we expect steady increases in overseas demand for lubricants and petrochemical products in the medium to long term. Under such circumstances of the Energy Business, to pursue sustainable growth while carrying out our responsibility to provide stable energy supply in Japan, we strived to strengthen the competitiveness of our core business and develop and expand businesses that will be the mainstays of the future. However, the results of the Energy Business for this fiscal year were extremely severe as shown in the chart above due to the low petrochemical product prices which were attributable to their oversupply caused by the commencement of operation of new large-sized facilities in China, as well as sales decline in various products affected by the spread of COVID-19, the record warm winter, etc., a deterioration in petroleum product margins associated with a sharp decline in crude oil prices, and an inventory valuation loss. ◦ Strengthening the competitiveness of core business (petroleum refining and marketing/petrochemical products) In the petroleum refining and marketing business and the petrochemical products business, we generated integration synergies of 122.5 billion yen, surpassing the target (100.0 billion yen) set forth in the First Medium-Term Management Plan, by continuing the rigorous streamlining and rationalization in
