More details on the cost reduction program in DecemberWhile costs increased in 3Q, some of them should subside in upcomingquarters such as lifting and refining costs, reflecting higher maintenance andlower production.

Main differences versus our estimates were: (1) lower refinedproducts imports, (2) slightly lower sales of refined products, (3) increasedrefinery productivity. Those items were offset by: (1) high gap of domesticprices versus import parity = subsidies, (2) lower refined products exports, (3)lower average realization prices, and (4) higher net import position.

Marginsdeteriorate furtherReported net revenues of R$73.8bn came in line with our forecasts, but consolidatedEBITDA of R$14.4bn came in 5% short of expectations (-14%YoY but +36%QoQ) andconsensus of R$15.8bn. Finally, Petrobras net income of R$5.6bn (EPADR of $0.42)came in well below our R$7.5bn estimate due to lower operating results, higherfinancial and FX expenses and higher tax rate.At a segment level, E&P operating results were negatively impacted by lowerproduction, lower average realization prices and higher costs (although much improvedQoQ). Meanwhile, losses in the refining business came in lower than estimatedreflecting lower imports.Figure 1: Petrobras 3Q12 income statement3Q12A(R$ mn)E&PRefiningGas & EnergyInternationalDistributionEliminationsNet salesCOGSGross Profit3Q12A35,38359,7466,0779,25820,293(56,964)73,79355,70718,0863Q12E37,42562,4815,5148,01720,278(60,306)73,40854,75718,6513Q11A30,79151,5174,6817,22719,312(49,349)64,17943,82020,3592Q12A36,00855,2425,5258,52618,642(55,896)68,04752,03216,0153Q12E-5%-4%10%15%0%-6%1%2%-3%3Q11A15%16%30%28%5%15%15%27%-11%2Q12A-2%8%10%9%9%2%8%7%13%Gross margin24.5%25.4%31.7%23.5%Exploration expensesSG&A expensesR&D expensesTaxesOtherOperating expensesOperating profit1,2925,0735861712,3649,4868,6001,0655,0984491802,0818,8749,7787854,6206711691,7928,03712,3223,4164,8454311701,87110,7335,28221%0%30%-5%14%7%-12%65%10%-13%1%32%18%-30%-62%5%36%1%26%-12%63%Operating margin11.7%13.3%19.2%7.8%EBITDA14,37515,16716,67710,599-5%-14%36%EBITDA Margin19.5%20.7%26.0%15.6%Net interest resultsNet FX gain / (loss)Equity incomePre-tax profitTaxesMinority InterestNet earnings(114)(455)1928,223(2,588)(68)5,567466(237)(300)9,707(2,524)3007,4831,295(6,579)(472)6,566(1,292)1,0626,336766(7,173)(426)(1,551)(320)525(1,346)-124%92%-164%-15%3%-123%-26%-109%-93%-141%25%100%-106%-12%-115%-94%-145%nm709%-113%nmEPSEPADR (US$)0.430.420.570.570.490.59(0.10)(0.11)Source: Deutsche Bank and company reportsPage 2Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.27 October 2012Oil & GasPetrobrasE&P: pressured by lower production and prices, higher liftingcostsThe E&P segment reported EBITDA of R$19.6bn, 13% below our R$22.7bn estimate(+7%YoY and 1%QoQ). Nonetheless, EBITDA margin of 55% improved sequentially(54% in 2Q12) but dropped versus 60% in 3Q11.The main items affecting the E&P performance during the quarter were:(-) higher exploration expenses of R$1.1bn versus our R$936mn estimate (+20%),R$630mn in 3Q11, but much lower than the R$3.3bn reported in 2Q12 due to lowerwrite-off of dry and sub commercial wells seen last quarter. According to the company,higher maintenance and well intervention needed in the period resulted in the pickup inexploration costs. However, government take of US$18.76/bbl was lower than ourforecast of US$19.21/bbl, due to lower production.(-) lower than expected domestic oil production: Petrobras reported very weakdomestic oil production figures during the month of September of 1.844mn bpd (-4%MoM) which was the weakest level since Nov08. That led production during thequarter to average 1.904mn bpd, 2% lower versus our expectations (-4%YoY and -3%QoQ). The 66tbpd drop QoQ reflected: (1) higher maintenance stoppages (-25tbpd)and (2) natural decline of mature fields (-57tbpd). Also the loss of production from theFrade field, closed since early this year, contributed to 18tbpd lower volumes. Partiallyoffsetting lower production were: (1) higher production from the pre-salt Lula field(+9tbpd) we note production in Lula had to be suspended for a few days duringSeptember due to issues in the CO2 compressors, (2) start of production at Baleia Azulfield (+6tbpd) and (3) lower operational losses (+17tbpd), effect of the PROEF.(-) higher lifting costs of US$15.42/bbl versus our estimates of US$13.62/bbl (+13%) lifting costs rose 15% both YoY and QoQ. The increase reflects higher maintenance andwell intervention in the Marlim and Albacora fields, higher personnel costs and lowerproduction. Lifting costs were helped by the Real weakness during the quarter.(-) higher than expected discount to international crudes: During 3Q12, the discount ofPetrobras crude to intl benchmarks increased to US$8.10/bbl from US$3.90/bbl in2Q12 but dropped versus US$10.60/bbl in 3Q11. That led to lower average realizationprices of US$108.80/bbl versus our estimates of US$105.90/bbl.Outlook for the remaining of 2012 and 2013 is discouragingWe dont expect production to improve significantly in the short term, although the endof maintenance shutdowns should help domestic oil production levels. For 2013, thecompany expects to maintain a flat output until late in the year, when new units andimproved efficiency in the Campos basin should start to show results.Petrobras stated the PROEF program already showed some progress since it wasimplemented, but those results are still minimal for a company the size of Petrobras.According to the company, efforts helped on the recovery of 17tbpd. Nonetheless, webelieve that any significant improvements from the program should only materialize inthe coming years. Petrobras should launch the PROEF Unidade Operacional Rio inNovember with the same objectives of the PROEF Unidade Operacional Campos.Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.Page 327 October 2012Oil & GasPetrobrasFigure 2: Petrobras: upstream highlights3Q12A(US$)Crude Brent $/bblCrude Oil ProductionDomesticInternationalNatural Gas ProductionDomesticInternationalTotal ProductionAverage Crude Realized Price ($/bbl)Average Discount to Brent ($/bbl)Lifting Cost - BrazilGovernment takeTotal lifting costs3Q12A109.902,0461,904142471377942,517101.80-8.1015.4218.7634.183Q12E109.902,0961,950146462363992,558105.90-4.0013.6219.2132.833Q11A113.462,1081,9781304563561002,564102.86-10.6013.3717.8831.252Q12A108.192,1131,970143459362972,572104.29-3.9013.4018.9132.313Q12E0%-2%-2%-3%2%4%-5%-2%-4%103%13%-2%4%3Q11A-3%-3%-4%9%3%6%-6%-2%-1%-24%15%5%9%2Q12A2%-3%-3%-1%3%4%-3%-2%-2%108%15%-1%6%Source: Deutsche Bank and company reportsRefining: price increases only reduced the bleeding, importsubsidies have to end.The refining segment reported an EBITDA loss of R$7.4bn during the quarter, whichcame in better than our estimate of a loss of R$9.4bn. The main difference versus ourestimates was lower than expected refined products imports.The main items affecting the refining segment during the quarter were:(+) lower refined products imports of 437mn bbl versus our estimates of 514mn bbl,reflecting lower diesel imports offset by higher gasoline imports.(+) slightly lower sales of refined products versus expectations of 238mn bbl (-1%).Demand, however grew by 4% both YoY and QoQ. We believe lower demand ispositive for Petrobras as it results in lower import needs which are subsidized by thecompany. In fact, imports were also lower than expected, especially of diesel due tohigher domestic production.(+) increased refinery productivity: during the quarter, capacity utilization ratioincreased to 98% (from 96% in 2Q12 and 93% in 3Q11), while utilization of domesticcrude remained stable at 82% both YoY and QoQ. Average throughput of 1.974mn bpdalso rose sequentially and versus last years. This resulted mainly in higher dieselvolumes produced in the period.(-) lower prices versus import parity, resulting in subsidy of imported gasoline anddiesel, partially offset by price adjustments in June and July. Please see Figures 4 and5.(-) lower refined products exports due high domestic demand and deliveries expectedfor the next quarter.(-) lower average realization prices of $123.66/bbl versus our estimates of $128.30/bbl.Page 4Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.27 October 2012Oil & GasPetrobras(-) higher refining costs of $4.62/bbl versus our estimate of $3.99/bbl and previousquarters of $3.91/bbl due higher personnel costs (effect of annual wage increase) andmaintenance.(-) higher net import position versus our estimates of 271mn bbl, especially due tohigher crude imports so to improve refinery yields.Figure 3: Petrobras downstream highlights3Q12ADownstream Volumes mn boe/dRefining revenues (US$)Refining gross profit (US$)3Q12A29,462-3,0743Q12E30,811-4,0423Q11A31,482-1,4182Q12A28,185-4,0553Q12E-4%-24%3Q11A-6%117%2Q12A5%-24%Refining gross margin-10.4%-13.1%-4.5%-14.4%Refined prod sales (MM bbl)Average Realized Price (US$/bbl)Average crude oil cost - domRefining Margin (US$/bbl)Gross Profit/bblCrude oil exportsCrude oil importsRefined product exportsRefined product importsNet export (import) position238$123.66$101.80$21.86-$12.90375385176437(271)240$128.30$105.90$22.40-$16.83384348223514(256)230$136.85$102.86$33.99-$6.17400316222499(193)229$122.81$104.29$18.52-$17.67351341203383(170)-1%-4%-4%-2%-23%-2%11%-21%-15%6%4%-10%-1%-36%109%-6%22%-21%-12%40%4%1%-2%18%-27%7%13%-13%14%59%Source: Deutsche Bank and company reportsRefining outlook depends on pricing. Company is reaching fullcapacity.Despite the increase in gasoline and diesel prices, results remained deeply in the red asthe prices of both products remained below import parity during the whole quarterresulting in the subsidy of gasoline and diesel imports.The timing of a new price increase is unclear at this point, although some investorsbelieve in an announcement soon. We note that during the past week, gasoline pricesdecreased significantly in the US, while diesel prices remained stable. That resulted indomestic prices converging to import parity while the discount in diesel remains.Another concerning point in our view is that Petrobrasrefineries have been working atvery high capacity utilization rates, reaching 98% in the quarter, despite a lacklustereconomic environment. We are concerned about the capacity of the company andpossible bottlenecks if consumption continues to increase. Demand destruction in thecase of Brazil is not a bad thing.Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.Page 5Jan-02Apr-02Jul-02Oct-02Jan-03Apr-03Jul-03Oct-03Jan-04Apr-04Jul-04Oct-04Jan-05Apr-05Jul-05Oct-05Jan-06Apr-06Jul-06Oct-06Jan-07Apr-07Jul-07Oct-07Jan-08Apr-08Jul-08Oct-08Jan-09Apr-09Jul-09Oct-09Jan-10Apr-10Jul-10Oct-10Jan-11Apr-11Jul-11Oct-11Jan-12Apr-12Jul-12Oct-12Jan-02Apr-02Jul-02Oct-02Jan-03Apr-03Jul-03Oct-03Jan-04Apr-04Jul-04Oct-04Jan-05Apr-05Jul-05Oct-05Jan-06Apr-06Jul-06Oct-06Jan-07Apr-07Jul-07Oct-07Jan-08Apr-08Jul-08Oct-08Jan-09Apr-09Jul-09Oct-09Jan-10Apr-10Jul-10Oct-10Jan-11Apr-11Jul-11Oct-11Jan-12Apr-12Jul-12Oct-1227 October 2012Oil & GasPetrobrasFigure 4: Gasoline prices PBR vs. GoM130%115%100%85%70%55%40%25%10%-5%-20%-35%-50%-65%Figure 5: Diesel prices PBR vs. GoM100%85%70%55%40%25%10%-5%-20%-35%-50%Disc PBR to GoMSource: Deutsche Bank and Bloomberg Finance LPAverageDisc PBR to GoMSource: Deutsche Bank and Bloomberg Finance LPAverageOther segments: Intl and Distribution surprise in 3Q12Gas & Energy: EBITDA of R$927mn came in 5% below expectations, but almostdoubled sequentially, reflecting: (1) better average realization prices of natural gas,reflecting better sales mix, (2) lower imports of LNG and natural gas from Bolivia due tolower thermal power generation and (3) lower energy spot prices (PLD -19% QoQ) dueto lower energy dispatch.International: EBITDA of R$1.8bn came in 22% ahead of expectations (+131%YoY and+26%QoQ), reflecting: (1) better sales volumes, (2) lower lifting costs, partially offset by(3) lower natural gas production in Bolivia due to lower demand in Brazil and crude oilproduction in the US due to the impact of the hurricane Isaac.Distribution: EBITDA of R$725mn also came in ahead of our R$585mn estimate, or+24%.

Our DCF assumptions include aUS$110/barrel long term oil price forecast. We use the DCF methodology because weconsider it a superior indicator of value to multiples, as it relies on free cash flowsgenerated over a longer period of time rather than the profitability of a single year. OurWACC of 10.1% is based on 30% leverage and 9.2% after-tax cost of debt. We alsoassume 10.4% cost of equity based on a 1.9% sovereign risk premium that reflectsBrazils risk improvement over the past year, a 3.0% risk free rate and a 5.5% equity riskpremium (historical average), along with a 1.0 Beta to the local market and a 3.0%terminal growth rate (which is below long term inflation expectations for Brazil).Upside risks to our target price being achieved include: 1) sooner-than-expectedrecovery in oil prices and 2) increased flows into Emerging markets, which tend tobenefit Petrobras due to its high liquidity. Downside risks include: 1) lower-thanexpected oil prices, 2) delays in Petrobras execution of the production schedule, 3)interference from Petrobras main shareholder, the Brazilian government, and 4)Brazilian macroeconomic factors.Page 8Deutsche Bank Securities Inc.11.1.27 October 2012Oil & GasPetrobrasAppendix 1Important DisclosuresAdditional information available upon requestDisclosure checklistCompanyPetrobrasTickerPBR.NRecent price*22.40 (USD) 26 Oct 12Disclosure*Prices are sourced from local exchanges via Reuters, Bloomberg and other vendors.
