1. Basis of financial statement preparation

These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) and follow the same accounting policies and methods of computation as, and should be read in conjunction with, the most recent annual consolidated financial statements filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in the company’s 2018 annual report on Form

10-K.

In the opinion of the company, the information furnished herein reflects all known accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the results for the periods reported herein. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature.

The company’s exploration and production activities are accounted for under the “successful efforts” method.

The results for the ~~six~~nine months ended ~~June~~September 30, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of the operations to be expected for the full year.

All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.

2. Accounting changes

Effective January 1, 2019, Imperial adopted the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s standard,

Leases (Topic 842)

, as amended. The standard requires all leases to be recorded on the balance sheet as a right of use asset and a lease liability. The company used a transition method that applies the new lease standard at January 1, 2019. The company applied a policy election to exclude short-term leases from the balance sheet recognition and also elected certain practical expedients at adoption. As permitted, Imperial did not reassess whether existing contracts are or contain leases, the lease classification for any existing leases, initial direct costs for any existing lease and whether existing land easements and right of way, which were not previously accounted for as leases, are or contain a lease. At adoption of the lease accounting change, on January 1, 2019, an operating lease liability of $298 million was recorded and the operating lease right of use asset was $298 million. There was no cumulative earnings effect adjustment.

8. Leases

The company generally purchases the property, plant and equipment used in operations, but there are situations where assets are leased, primarily rail cars, marine vessels, storage tanks and other moveable equipment. Right of use assets and lease liabilities are established on the balance sheet for leases with an expected term greater than one year, by discounting the amounts fixed in the lease agreement for the duration of the lease which is reasonably certain, considering the probability of exercising any early termination and extension options. The portion of the fixed payment related to service costs for long-term transportation agreements is excluded from the calculation of right of use assets and lease liabilities. Usually, assets are leased only for a portion of their useful lives and are accounted for as operating leases. In limited situations assets are leased for nearly all of their useful lives and are accounted for as finance leases. In general, leases are capitalized using the company’s incremental borrowing rate.

Variable payments under these lease agreements are not significant. Residual value guarantees, restrictions, or covenants related to leases, and transactions with related parties are also not significant. The company’s activities as a lessor are not material.

At adoption of the lease accounting change (see note 2), on January 1, 2019, an operating lease liability of $

~~298~~

$298 million was recorded and the operating lease right of use asset was $

$298 million. There was no cumulative earnings effect adjustment.

10. Financial instruments

The fair value of the company’s financial instruments is determined by reference to various market data and other appropriate valuation techniques. There are no material differences between the fair value of the company’s financial instruments and the recorded carrying value. At ~~June~~September 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018 the fair value of long-term debt ($

4,447

million, excluding finance lease obligations) was primarily a level 2 measurement.

13. Recently issued accounting standards

Effective January 1, 2020, Imperial will adopt the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s update,

Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)

, as amended.

The standard requires a valuation allowance for credit losses be recognized for certain financial assets that reflects the current expected credit loss over the asset’s contractual life. The valuation allowance considers the risk of loss, even if remote and considers past events, current conditions and expectations of the future. The company does not expect a material change in the credit allowance for trade receivables and continues to evaluate the impact on other financial assets in scope of the standard

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations

Operating results

Third quarter 2019 vs. third quarter 2018

The company’s net income for the third quarter of 2019 was $424 million or $0.56 per share on a diluted basis, compared to net income of $749 million or $0.94 per share in the same period of 2018.

Upstream net income was $209 million in the third quarter, compared to net income of $222 million in the same period of 2018. Earnings decreased mainly due to higher operating expenses of about $70 million and higher royalties of about $50 million, partially offset by higher volumes of about $110 million primarily at Syncrude.

West Texas Intermediate (WTI) averaged US$56.44 per barrel in the third quarter of 2019, down from US$69.43 per barrel in the same quarter of 2018. Western Canada Select (WCS) averaged US$44.21 per barrel and US$47.49 per barrel for the same periods. The WTI / WCS differential narrowed during the third quarter of 2019 to average approximately US$12 per barrel for the quarter, compared to around US$22 per barrel in the same period of 2018.

The Canadian dollar averaged US$0.76 in the third quarter of 2019, essentially unchanged from the third quarter of 2018.

Imperial’s average Canadian dollar realizations for bitumen increased in the quarter supported primarily by lower diluent costs partially offset by a decrease in WCS. Bitumen realizations averaged $51.12 per barrel in the third quarter of 2019, up from $50.42 per barrel in the third quarter of 2018. The company’s average Canadian dollar realizations for synthetic crude declined generally in line with WTI in the quarter, adjusted for changes in exchange rates and transportation costs. Synthetic crude realizations averaged $77.27 per barrel in the third quarter of 2019, compared to $89.70 per barrel in the same period of 2018.

Gross production of Cold Lake bitumen averaged 142,000 barrels per day in the third quarter, compared to 150,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018.

Gross production of Kearl bitumen averaged 224,000 barrels per day in the third quarter (159,000 barrels Imperial’s share), compared to 244,000 barrels per day (173,000 barrels Imperial’s share) in the third quarter of 2018. Lower production was mainly due to timing of planned turnaround activity.

The company’s share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 69,000 barrels per day, up from 45,000 barrels per day in the third quarter of 2018. Higher production was mainly due to the absence of production impacts from the 2018 power disruption, partially offset by planned turnaround activity.

Downstream net income was $221 million in the third quarter, compared to $502 million in the third quarter of 2018. Earnings were negatively impacted by lower margins of about $230 million and planned turnaround activity of about $70 million.

Refinery throughput averaged 363,000 barrels per day, compared to 388,000 barrels per day in the third quarter of 2018. Capacity utilization was 86 percent, compared to 92 percent in the third quarter of 2018. Reduced throughput was mainly due to planned turnaround activity at Nanticoke and ongoing impacts from the fractionation tower incident at Sarnia which occurred earlier in 2019.

Petroleum product sales were 488,000 barrels per day, compared to 516,000 barrels per day in the third quarter of 2018. Lower petroleum product sales were mainly due to lower refinery throughput.

Chemical net income was $38 million in the third quarter, compared to $69 million from the same quarter of 2018, primarily reflecting lower margins.

Corporate and other expenses were $44 million in the third quarter, unchanged from the same period of 2018.

IMPERIAL OIL LIMITED

Nine months 2019 vs. nine months 2018

Net income in the first nine months of 2019 was $1,929 million, or $2.51 per share on a diluted basis, up from net income of $1,461 million or $1.79 per share in the first nine months of 2018. 2019 results include a favourable impact, largely

non-cash,

of $662 million associated with the Alberta corporate income tax rate decrease. On June 28, 2019, the Alberta government enacted a 4 percent decrease in the provincial tax rate, from 12 percent to 8 percent by 2022.

Upstream net income was $1,252 million for the first nine months of the year, reflecting the favourable impact associated with the decreased Alberta corporate income tax rate of $689 million. Excluding this impact, 2019 net income was $563 million, up from net income of $172 million in the same period of 2018. Improved results reflect higher volumes of about $530 million at Syncrude, Kearl and Norman Wells, as well as the impact of higher crude oil realizations of about $220 million and favourable foreign exchange impacts of about $90 million. Results were negatively impacted by higher operating expenses of about $270 million, higher royalties of about $130 million, and lower Cold Lake volumes of about $70 million.

West Texas Intermediate averaged US$57.10 per barrel in the first nine months of 2019, down from US$66.77 per barrel in the same period of 2018. Western Canada Select averaged US$45.32 per barrel and US$44.98 per barrel for the same periods. The WTI / WCS differential narrowed to average approximately US$12 per barrel in the first nine months of 2019, from around US$22 per barrel in the same period of 2018.

The Canadian dollar averaged US$0.75 in the first nine months of 2019, a decrease of $0.03 from the same period in 2018.

Imperial’s average Canadian dollar realizations for bitumen increased in the first nine months of 2019, supported primarily by lower diluent costs. Bitumen realizations averaged $52.44 per barrel, up from $45.04 per barrel from the same period in 2018. The company’s average Canadian dollar realizations for synthetic crude declined generally in line with WTI, adjusted for changes in exchange rates and transportation costs. Synthetic crude realizations averaged $74.59 per barrel, compared to $83.66 per barrel from the same period in 2018.

Gross production of Cold Lake bitumen averaged 141,000 barrels per day in the first nine months of 2019, compared to 145,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018.

Gross production of Kearl bitumen averaged 204,000 barrels per day in the first nine months of 2019 (145,000 barrels Imperial’s share), up from 202,000 barrels per day (144,000 barrels Imperial’s share) in the same period of 2018.

During the first nine months of 2019, the company’s share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 76,000 barrels per day, up from 53,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018. Higher production was mainly due to the absence of production impacts from the 2018 power disruption.

Downstream net income was $736 million for the first nine months of 2019, compared to $1,224 million for the same period of 2018. Earnings were negatively impacted by lower margins of about $430 million, reliability events of about $140 million, including the fractionation tower incident at Sarnia, and lower sales volumes of about $100 million. These factors were partially offset by lower net turnaround impacts of about $80 million, and favourable foreign exchange effects of about $60 million.

Refinery throughput averaged 363,000 barrels per day in the first nine months of 2019, compared to 386,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018. Capacity utilization was 86 percent, compared to 91 percent in the same period of 2018. Reduced throughput was mainly due to higher planned turnaround activities and impacts from the Sarnia fractionation tower incident.

Petroleum product sales were 481,000 barrels per day in the first nine months of 2019, compared to 503,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018. Lower petroleum product sales were mainly due to lower refinery throughput.

Chemical net income was $110 million in the first nine months of 2019, compared to $220 million in the same period of 2018, primarily reflecting lower margins.

Corporate and other expenses were $169 million in the first nine months of 2019, compared to $155 million in the same period of 2018.

~~of $662 million associated with the Alberta corporate income tax rate decrease. On June 28, 2019, the Alberta government enacted a 4 percent decrease in the provincial tax rate, from 12 percent~~credit allowance for trade receivables and continues to ~~8 percent by 2022.~~

Upstream net income was $985 million in the second quarter, reflecting the favourable impact associated with the decreased Alberta corporate income tax rate of $689 million. Excluding this impact, second quarter 2019 net income was $296 million, an increase of $302 million compared to a net loss of $6 million in the same period of 2018. Improved results reflect higher volumes of about $310 million, primarily at Syncrude, Kearl and Norman Wells, as well asevaluate the impact ~~of higher Canadian crude oil realizations of about $80 million. Results were negatively impacted by higher operating expenses of about $60 million and higher royalties of about $50 million.~~

~~West Texas Intermediate (WTI) averaged US$59.91 per barrel~~on other financial assets in the second quarter of 2019, down from US$67.91 per barrel in the same quarter of 2018. Western Canada Select (WCS) averaged US$49.31 per barrel and US$48.81 per barrel for the same periods. The WTI / WCS differential narrowed during the second quarter of 2019 to average approximately US$11 per barrel for the quarter, compared to around US$19 per barrel in the same period of 2018.

~~The Canadian dollar averaged US$0.75 in the second quarter of 2019, a decrease of US$0.03 from the second quarter of 2018.~~

Imperial’s average Canadian dollar realizations for bitumen increased in the quarter, supported primarily by lower diluent costs. Bitumen realizations averaged $57.19 per barrel in the second quarter of 2019, up from $48.90 per barrel in the second quarter of 2018. The company’s average Canadian dollar realizations for synthetic crude declined generally in line with WTI in the quarter, adjusted for changes in exchange rates and transportation costs. Synthetic crude realizations averaged $79.96 per barrel in the second quarter of 2019, compared to $86.31 per barrel in the same period of 2018.

~~Gross production of Cold Lake bitumen averaged 135,000 barrels per day in the second quarter, up from 133,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018.~~

Gross production of Kearl bitumen averaged 207,000 barrels per day in the second quarter (147,000 barrels Imperial’s share), up from 180,000 barrels per day (128,000 barrels Imperial’s share) in the second quarter of 2018. Higher production was mainly due to improved reliability.

The company’s share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 80,000 barrels per day, up from 50,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2018. Higher production was mainly due to the absence of turnaround activities and impacts from the 2018 power disruption.

Downstream net income was $258 million in the second quarter, up from $201 million in the second quarter of 2018. Earnings increased primarily due to lower net turnaround impacts of about $150 million partially offset by reliability events of about $70 million, including the Sarnia tower incident.

Refinery throughput averaged 344,000 barrels per day, compared to 363,000 barrels per day in the second quarter of 2018. Capacity utilization was 81 percent, compared to 86 percent in the second quarter of 2018. Reduced throughput was mainly due to the impact of a planned turnaround and the tower incident at Sarnia, partially offset by the absencescope of the ~~2018 planned turnaround at Strathcona.~~standard.

~~Six months 2019 vs. six months 2018~~

Net income in the first six months of 2019 was $1,505 million, or $1.94 per share on a diluted basis, up from net income of $712 million or $0.86 per share in the first six months of 2018. 2019 results include a favourable impact, largely

~~non-cash,~~

Upstream net income was $1,043 million for the first six months of the year, reflecting the favourable impact associated with the decreased Alberta corporate income tax rate of $689 million. Excluding this impact, 2019 net income was $354 million, an increase of $404 million compared to a net loss of $50 million in the same period of 2018. Improved results reflect higher volumes of about $330 million, primarily at Syncrude, Kearl and Norman Wells, as well as the impact of higher Canadian crude oil realizations of about $260 million and favourable foreign exchange impacts of about $60 million. Results were negatively impacted by higher operating expenses of about $180 million and higher royalties of about $80 million.

West Texas Intermediate averaged US$57.45 per barrel in the first six months of 2019, down from US$65.44 per barrel in the same period of 2018. Western Canada Select averaged US$45.88 per barrel and US$43.74 per barrel for the same periods. The WTI / WCS differential narrowed to average approximately US$12 per barrel in the first six months of 2019, from around US$22 per barrel in the same period of 2018.

~~The Canadian dollar averaged US$0.75 in the first six months of 2019, a decrease of $0.03 from the same period in 2018.~~

Imperial’s average Canadian dollar realizations for bitumen increased in the first six months of 2019, supported primarily by lower diluent costs and an increase in WCS. Bitumen realizations averaged $53.20 per barrel, up from $41.84 per barrel from the same period in 2018. The company’s average Canadian dollar realizations for synthetic crude declined generally in line with WTI, adjusted for changes in exchange rates and transportation costs. Synthetic crude realizations averaged $74.77 per barrel, compared to $81.24 per barrel from the same period in 2018.

~~Gross production of Cold Lake bitumen averaged 140,000 barrels per day in the first six months of 2019, compared to 143,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018.~~

Gross production of Kearl bitumen averaged 193,000 barrels per day in the first six months of 2019 (137,000 barrels Imperial’s share) up from 181,000 barrels per day (128,000 barrels Imperial’s share) in the same period of 2018. Higher production was mainly due to improved reliability.

During the first six months of 2019, the company’s share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 79,000 barrels per day, up from 57,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018. Higher production was mainly due to the absence of turnaround activities and impacts from the 2018 power disruption.

Downstream net income was $515 million for the first six months of 2019, compared to $722 million for the same period of 2018. Earnings were negatively impacted by lower margins of about $210 million, reliability events of about $130 million, including the Sarnia tower incident, and lower sales volumes of about $70 million. These factors were partially offset by lower net turnaround impacts of about $150 million and favourable foreign exchange effects of about $70 million.

Refinery throughput averaged 364,000 barrels per day in the first six months of 2019, compared to 386,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018. Capacity utilization was 86 percent, compared to 91 percent in the same period of 2018. Reduced throughput was mainly due to the impact of a planned turnaround and the tower incident at Sarnia, partially offset by the absence of the 2018 planned turnaround at Strathcona.

Petroleum product sales were 477,000 barrels per day in the first six months of 2019, compared to 494,000 barrels per day in the same period of 2018. Lower petroleum product sales were mainly due to lower refinery throughput.

~~Recently issued accounting standards~~

~~Effective January 1, 2020, Imperial will adopt the Financial Accounting Standards Board’s update,~~

~~Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326)~~

, as amended. The standard requires a valuation allowance for credit losses be recognized for certain financial assets that reflects the current expected credit loss over the asset’s contractual life. The valuation allowance considers the risk of loss, even if remote and considers past events, current conditions and expectations of the future. Imperial is evaluating the standard and its effect on the company’s financial statements.
