Ecopetrol S.A.

Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

March 31, 2016

(Figures expressed in millions of Colombian pesos, unless otherwise stated)

1. Reporting entity

Ecopetrol S.A. is a mixed economy company, with a commercial nature, formed in 1948 in Bogotá, Colombia. Its corporate purpose is to develop commercial or industrial activities arising from or related to the exploration, production, refining, transportation, storage, distribution, and selling of hydrocarbons, their by-products and associated products on its own or through its subsidiaries (Ecopetrol S.A. and its subsidiaries are collectively referred to as “Ecopetrol”, the “Company” or the “Ecopetrol Business Group”).

11.51% of Ecopetrol S.A.’s shares are publicly traded on the Stock Exchange in each of Colombia; New York, USA and Lima, Peru. Ecopetrol S.A.’s shares were listed on the Toronto Stock Exchange until March 2016. The remaining shares (88.49% of the total outstanding shares) are owned by the Colombian Ministry of Finance and Public Credit.

The address of the main office of Ecopetrol S.A. is Carrera 13 No. 36 – 24, Bogotá – Colombia.

2. Basis of presentation

2.1 Statement of compliance and authorization of financial statements

The financial information contained in this report has been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in Colombia (“Colombian IFRS”). Colombia IFRS are in essence a Spanish translation of the International Financial Reporting Standards as issued by the International Accounting Standard Board (‘IASB”) and other local regulations that were adopted by decrees 2420 and 2496 of 2015 and are applicable to entities regulated by the Colombian National Accounting Office (from the Spanish, Contaduría General de la Nación – CGN), which may differ in certain significant aspects to IFRS and the standards adopted by other Government controlling bodies.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and therefore should be read in conjunction with the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements and notes issued as of December 31, 2015.

The financial statements for interim periods are unaudited and in the opinion of management, include all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the results of each period.

The financial information presented herein has been prepared in accordance with the accounting policies expected to be used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements at year-end 2016, which do not differ significantly from those used in the previous year.

These condensed consolidated interim financial statements were approved by the Company’s management on April 22, 2016.

Ecopetrol S.A.

Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Statements

March 31, 2016

(Figures expressed in millions of Colombian pesos, unless otherwise stated)

2.2 Basis of consolidation

For presentation purposes, these condensed consolidated interim financial statements were prepared by consolidating all companies set out in Exhibit 1, which are those that Ecopetrol is able to control directly or indirectly. Control is achieved when the Company:

· Has power over the investee;

· Is exposed, or has the rights, to variable returns from its involvement with the investee; and

· Has the ability to use its power to affect its returns.

When the Company has less than a majority of the voting rights of an investee, it still has power over the investee when the voting rights are sufficient to give it the practical ability to direct the relevant activities of the investee unilaterally. The Company considers all relevant facts and circumstances in assessing whether or not the Company’s voting rights in an investee are sufficient to give it power, including:

· The size of the Company’s voting rights relative to the size and division of the voting rights of other shareholders;

· Potential voting rights held by the Company, other vote holders or other parties;

· Rights arising from other contractual arrangements; and

· Any additional facts and circumstances that indicate that the Company has, or does not have, the current ability to conduct the relevant activities, at the time that decisions need to be made, including voting patterns at previous shareholders´ meetings.

All intercompany assets and liabilities, equity, income, expenses and cash flows relating to transactions between entities of the Ecopetrol Business Group were eliminated on consolidation.

3. Significant accounting judgments and estimates

The preparation of financial statements requires that the Company’s management make estimates about the carrying amounts of assets, liabilities, income, expenses and commitments recognized in financial statements. These estimates are carried out based on the best available information on the matters under review. Reviews of accounting estimates are recognized prospectively in the period in which the estimate is revised.

During the first quarter of 2016, there has been no changes in accounting estimates or significant accounting judgments used in the preparation of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015.

4. Accounting policies

The significant accounting policies of Ecopetrol S.A. are described in the Note 4 - Accounting policies to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 in Ecopetrol S.A.’s annual report and these have been consistently applied to the period covered by these condensed consolidated interim financial statements, except for cash flow hedges for future oil exports described below in Note 25 - Risk Management. The application of this policy and the sensitivity of results for the first quarter of 2015 are provided below in Note 25.1.2.

5. New standards and regulatory changes

The following standards and interpretations issued by the IASB during the first quarter of 2016, and in the process of being approved by the Colombian government, with a potential impact on Ecopetrol S.A., and which apply for annual periods beginning on 1 January 2017 or later are detailed below:

Standard	Description	Effective date under IFRS
Amendments to IAS 7 - Cash Flow Statements	The amendment to IAS 7 - Cash Flow Statements introduces additional disclosure requirements about changes in liabilities arising from financing activities, including changes arising from both cash flows and non-cash items. Ecopetrol is currently evaluating the impact of this standard.	January 1st, 2017
New IFRS 16 - Leases	The IASB issued IFRS-16 Leases which replaces the existing standard leases (IAS 17 Leases) and requires the recognition of most leases in the balance sheet. IFRS 16 eliminates the classification of leases, either as finance or operating leases and treats all leases as finance leases. There are exceptions for leases in the short term, where the term is twelve months or less and leases of low value items. The accounting treatment of lessor remains the same, offering the choice of classification of a lease as finance or operating lease. Ecopetrol is evaluating the impact of this standard.	January 1st, 2019
Amendments to IFRS 10 - Consolidated Financial Statements IAS 28 - Investments in associates and joint ventures	These amendments establish requirements for accounting for sales or transfers of assets between an investor and its associate or joint venture. Whether or not assets are held in a subsidiary, a total gain or loss is recognized in the income statement when the transaction involves assets that constitute a business, while a partial gain or loss is recognized when the transaction refers to assets that do not constitute a business.	Effective from a future date to be determined by the IASB

The new standards and amendments that were effective as of January 1, 2016 and described in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015 in Ecopetrol S.A.’s annual report, were adopted without a material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

(2) Other taxes mainly include the balance of the industry and commerce tax payable.

8.2 Income tax

Current tax regulations applicable to Ecopetrol establish that:

(a) From January 1, 2013, income tax in Colombia is levied at a 25% rate income tax; at a 9% income tax for equality -“CREE” (contribución empresarial para la equidad or “CREE” by its acronym in Spanish), except for the taxpayers that by express regulation receive special rates; and at a 10% rate for income from capital gains. Companies in the Free Trade Zone pay income tax at a 15% rate, and companies that do not generate net income or whose net income is less than the presumptive minimum taxable income, pay income tax at a rate of 3% of equity for tax purposes.

On December 23, 2014, Act 1739 established a surtax to the CREE for 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018, that is applicable on a taxable base higher than $800 million, at a rate of 5%, 6%, 8% and 9% per year, respectively.

The Ecopetrol Business Group is composed of companies that pay income tax at an ordinary rate of 40%, Free Trade Zone companies that pay income tax at a 15% rate, companies that pay presumptive income tax in Colombia and others with income from abroad under rates set by other countries.

(b) Until 2007, solely for tax purposes, taxpayers could annually adjust the cost of movable and immovable property representing fixed assets. The adjustment percentage is set by the Department of National Tax and Customs by means of a resolution.

(c) At March 31, 2016, Ecopetrol S.A. and Bioenergy S.A. have tax losses with no expiration date amounting to $827,425 with a deferred tax of $272,711, originating between 2009 and 2016. According to tax regulations in force, the tax losses generated since taxable year 2007 may be offset, fiscally readjusted, with no percentage limitation, at any time, with the net ordinary income notwithstanding the presumptive (minimum taxable) income for the period. Losses from companies cannot be transferred to the shareholders.

(Figures expressed in millions of Colombian pesos, unless otherwise stated)

Excess presumptive income expiring in 2021 amounted to $ 289,902 with a deferred tax liability of $ 98,567, attributable to Ecopetrol S.A.

From 2015, in conformity with the provisions of Act 1739 of December 2014, tax losses and excesses of the minimum base may be offset with future income subject to the CREE, according to the same rules as those applicable to income tax.

Income tax expenses

The estimate of current tax for interim periods is based on the best estimate of the weighted average tax rate expected for the annual accounting period.

The following shows a breakdown of the income tax recognized in profit and loss:

	For the three months ended March 31,
	2016			2015
Current  income tax		897,162			756,552
Deferred  tax		(72,215	)		(284,176	)
Income tax expense		824,947			472,376

Reconciliation of the income tax expense

For the first quarter of 2016, the effective income tax rate was 57.5% (as compared to 57.0% in the first quarter of 2015).

The increase as compared to the previous period is mainly due to the increase of the income tax nominal rate, which passed from 39% in 2015 to 40% in 2016.

The income tax returns for taxable years 2011-2015 and CREE returns for taxable years 2013 and 2014 are subject to review and acceptance by the tax authorities. The management for the Ecopetrol Business Group considers that amounts recorded as liabilities for taxes payable are sufficient and are supported by current regulations, doctrine and jurisprudence for purposes of addressing any claims that may arise with respect to such years. The Company's strategy involves not making tax decisions by adopting aggressive or risky instances that may bring its tax returns into question.

The wealth tax was established by means of Act 1739 of 2014; according to which a taxable event is the possession of wealth at January 1, 2015, 2016 and 2017, and it is payable by income taxpayers. As of March 31, 2016, the conditions for determining the wealth tax to be paid in 2016 were as follows:

Range of equity	Rate
>0 < 2,000,000	(Taxable base)* 0.20%
>= 2,000,000 < 3,000,000	(Taxable base - 2,000,000,000) *0.35%+4,000
>= 3,000,000 < 5,000,000	(Taxable base - 3,000,000,000) *0.75%+ 7,500
>= 5,000,000	(Taxable base - 5,000,000,000) *1.15% + 22,500

Taxable base = Fiscal equity

Based on January 1, 2016, the wealth tax incurred by the Ecopetrol Business Group amounted to $582,529, which was recognized as an administrative expense during the first quarter of 2016. This tax is payable in two installments in the second and third quarter of 2016.

The asset retirement obligation represents the Company's future obligation to restore environmental conditions to a level similar to that existing before the start of projects or activities, in accordance with that described in Note 3.1.5 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2015. As these relate to long-term obligations, the liability is determined based on expected future payments discounted to present value at a rate indexed to the Company's financial obligations, taking into account the timing and risks relating to this obligation.

25. Risk management

25.1 Exchange rate risk

The Ecopetrol Business Group mainly operates in Colombia and makes sales in the local and international markets. We are exposed to the exchange rate risk that arises from various foreign currency exposures due to commercial transactions and assets and liabilities held in foreign currency. The impact of fluctuations in exchange rates, especially the Colombian peso/U.S. dollar rate, on operations has been material.

The Colombian peso/U.S. dollar exchange rate has fluctuated during the last several years. The Colombian peso depreciated 37.3% on average in 2015. For the first quarter of 2016, the Colombian peso has appreciated 4.0% to move from a closing rate at December 31, 2015 of $3,149.47 to $3,022.35 Colombian pesos/U.S. dollar. During the first quarter of 2015, the Colombian peso depreciated 7.7% from a closing rate at December 31, 2014 of $2,392.46 to $2,576.05 Colombian pesos/U.S. dollar.

When the Colombian peso appreciates in comparison with the U.S. dollar, export revenues decrease when translated into Colombian pesos. However, imported goods, oil services and interest on external debt denominated in U.S. dollars become less expensive for us. Conversely, when the Colombian peso depreciates in comparison with the U.S. dollar, revenues from exports, when translated into Colombian pesos, increase, and imports and external debt service become more expensive.

The following table sets out the carrying values for financial assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies at the consolidated level:

	March 31,			December 31,
	2016			2015
U.S. $ Million
Cash and cash equivalents		1,298			970
Other financial assets		387			381
Trade receivables and payables, net		(211	)		(546	)
Loans and borrowings		(14,889	)		(14,634	)
Net liability position		(13,415	)		(13,829	)

Of the total net liability position, approximately 32% relates to financial assets and liabilities for companies that have the Colombian peso as their functional currency, whose value has affected results for the financial year whereas 68% of the net position relates to monetary assets and liabilities for group companies that have the U.S. dollar as their functional currency and non-derivate hedging instruments from Ecopetrol S.A., whose value is recognized in other comprehensive income.

The Company’s risk management strategy involves the use of non-derivative financial instruments related to cash flow hedges for future exports, in order to minimize exposure to currency rate risk.

25.1.1 Sensitivity analysis for exchange rate risk

The following table shows the impact that a variation of 1% and 5% in the exchange rate of the Colombian peso versus the U.S. dollar would have on the assets and liabilities held in such currency at March 31, 2016:

Variation in the exchange rate			Effect on income before taxes (+/-)		Effect on other comprehensive income (+/-)
	1	%		128,299		277,149
	5	%		641,494		(1,385,747	)

Sensitivity analysis includes only monetary assets and monetary liabilities held in foreign currency at period end.

25.1.2 Cash Flow Hedge for Future Company Exports

With the objective of presenting in the financial statements the effect of the mentioned natural hedge between exports and debt, understanding that the exchange rate risk materializes when exports are made, on September 30, 2015, the Board of Directors designated U.S.$ 5,440 million of Ecopetrol S.A’s debt as hedge instrument of its future export sales for the period 2015- 2023, in accordance with IAS 39 – Financial instruments: recognition and measurement.

According to Resolution 509 of 2015 of the General Accounting Office (Contaduría General de la Nación), the accounting policy for the recognition of hedging was adopted by Ecopetrol S.A. starting January 1, 2015. The effect between January 1 and September 30, 2015, was recognized in September of that year and therefore the result of the first quarter of 2015 shown on a comparative basis in this report is as follows:

	Three months ended March 31, 2015
Net income reported		160,030
Effects:
(-) Finance result – Exchange difference		984,627
(-) Sales revenue		(12,001	)
(-) Deferred tax		(395,163	)
Net income sensitized		737,493

The following is the movement of this non-derivative hedging instrument:

	U.S. $ (million)
Hedging instrument at December 31, 2015		5,376
Reassignment of hedging instruments		313
Realized exports		(313	)
Amortization of debt		(32	)
Hedging instrument at March 31, 2016		5,344

Ecopetrol S.A.

March 31, 2016

(Figures expressed in millions of Colombian pesos, unless otherwise stated)

The cumulative impact was as follows:

	March 31, 2016			December 31, 2015
Exchange difference  for hedging instruments		3,427,860			4,107,205
Reclassification to profit and loss		(382,442	)		(248,698	)
Deferred income tax		(1,123,813	)		(1,426,403	)
		1,921,605			2,432,104

The expected reclassification of the exchange differences accumulated in other comprehensive income to the profit and loss statement is as follows:

Year	Amount		Income tax			Net
2016 (April–December)		304,542		(112,381	)		192,161
2017		406,056		(149,842	)		256,214
2018		406,056		(149,842	)		256,214
2019		406,056		(149,842	)		256,214
2020		406,056		(149,842	)		256,214
2021		406,056		(149,842	)		256,214
2022		406,056		(149,842	)		256,214
2023		304,540		(112,380	)		192,160
		3,045,418		(1,123,813	)		1,921,605

The hedge has been effective since the start date of the hedge for future exports, according to the effectiveness tests performed.

25.2 Capital management

The main objective of Ecopetrol’s capital management is to ensure a financial structure that will optimize the Company’s cost of capital, maximize returns to its shareholders and allows access to financial markets at a competitive cost to cover its financing needs.

The leverage index at the relevant periods is comprised as follows:

	March 31,			December 31,
	2016			2015
Loans and borrowings (Note 15)		53,139,364			53,223,338
Less: Cash and cash equivalents		(7,636,349	)		(6,550,450	)
Less: Other financial assets not restricted (Note 10)		(582,008	)		(885,547	)
Net financial debt		44,921,007			45,787,341
