NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (unaudited)
1. Basis of financial statement presentation
These unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles of the United States of America 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. In the opinion of the management, the information furnished herein reflects all known accruals and adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position of the company as at September 30, 2010, and December 31, 2009, and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 and 2009. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The company’s exploration and production activities are accounted for under the “successful efforts” method. Certain reclassifications to the prior year have been made to conform to the 2010 presentation.
The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2010, 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 change for variable-interest entities
Effective January 1, 2010, the company adopted the authoritative guidance for variable-interest entities (VIEs). The guidance requires the enterprise to qualitatively assess if it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE and, if so, the VIE must be consolidated. The adoption did not have any impact on the company’s consolidated financial statements.

IMPERIAL OIL LIMITED
| Item 2. | Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations. |
OPERATING RESULTS
The company’s net income for the third quarter of 2010 was $418 million or $0.49 a share on a diluted basis, compared with $547 million or $0.64 a share for the same period last year. Net income for the first nine months of 2010 was $1,411 million or $1.65 a share on a diluted basis, versus $1,045 million or $1.22 a share for the nine months of 2009.
Although third quarter earnings were lower, underlying business operations remained strong across all segments of the company. The lower third quarter earnings were primarily attributable to planned maintenance activities at Syncrude, impacting earnings by about $90 million, and the unfavourable foreign exchange effects of a stronger Canadian dollar of about $70 million. These factors were partially offset by the combined impacts of upstream commodity prices and downstream margins totaling about $75 million. The company estimates that third-party pipeline reliability issues negatively impacted third quarter earnings by about $60 million; this effect, which will carry-over in fourth quarter results, has been reflected in the overall commodity price and margins factor above.
For the nine months, earnings increased primarily due to the impacts of higher upstream commodity prices of about $800 million, higher Syncrude volumes of about $90 million and improved refinery operations and lower refinery maintenance activities totaling about $75 million. These factors were partially offset by the unfavourable effects of a stronger Canadian dollar of about $330 million, higher royalty costs due to higher commodity prices of about $240 million, and lower overall downstream margins of about $110 million. Earnings in the nine months of 2010 also included higher gain of about $25 million from sale of non-operating assets.
Upstream
Net income in the third quarter was $348 million versus $439 million in the same period of 2009. Earnings decreased primarily due to higher costs and lower volumes at Syncrude, mainly a result of planned maintenance activities, totaling about $90 million. Earnings were also negatively impacted by the unfavourable foreign exchange effects of a stronger Canadian dollar of about $65 million and lower Cold Lake bitumen production and lower conventional volumes totaling about $25 million. These factors were partially offset by higher crude oil and natural gas commodity prices in the third quarter of 2010 which contributed to higher earnings of about $95 million. Third-party pipeline reliability issues in the third quarter negatively impacted the transportation of western crude oil. The company estimates the negative impact on earnings of about $45 million from lower realizations, the effect of which has been reflected in the commodity price factor above.
Net income for the nine months was $1,238 million versus $833 million during the same period last year. Higher crude oil and natural gas commodity prices in 2010 increased revenues, contributing to higher earnings of about $800 million. Earnings were also positively impacted by higher Syncrude volumes, reflecting improved reliability, of about $90 million. These factors were partially offset by the impact of a stronger Canadian dollar of about $265 million and higher royalty costs due to higher commodity prices of about $240 million.
The average price of Brent crude oil in U.S. dollars, a common benchmark for world oil markets, was $76.85 a barrel in the third quarter and $77.15 a barrel in the nine months of 2010, up about 13 percent and 35 percent from the corresponding periods last year. The company’s average realizations on sales of Canadian conventional crude oil and synthetic crude oil from Syncrude production also increased. The company’s average bitumen realizations were also higher in the third quarter and in the first nine months of 2010, but by less than the relative increase in light crude oil prices, reflecting a widened price spread between the lighter crude oils and Cold Lake bitumen, attributable to third-party pipeline outages.
11
Gross production of Cold Lake bitumen averaged 139 thousand barrels a day during the third quarter, versus 145 thousand barrels in the same quarter last year. For the nine months, gross production was 143 thousand barrels a day this year, compared with 144 thousand barrels in the same period of 2009. Lower volumes in both periods in 2010 were due to the cyclic nature of production at Cold Lake.
The company’s share of Syncrude’s gross production in the third quarter was 66 thousand barrels a day, versus 78 thousand barrels in the third quarter of 2009. Lower volumes in the third quarter of 2010 were the result of planned maintenance activities, which began in September 2010 and will complete in late October 2010. During the nine months of the year, the company’s share of gross production from Syncrude averaged 71 thousand barrels a day, up from 66 thousand barrels in 2009. Increased production in the nine months of 2010 was due to improved operational reliability.
Gross production of conventional crude oil averaged 22 thousand barrels a day in the third quarter, down from 25 thousand barrels in the third quarter of 2009. In the first nine months of the year, gross production was 23 thousand barrels a day, compared with 25 thousand barrels in 2009. Planned maintenance activities at the Norman Wells field and natural reservoir decline were the main contributors to the lower production in both periods.
Gross production of natural gas during the third quarter of 2010 was 284 million cubic feet a day, down slightly from 291 million cubic feet in the same period last year. In the nine months of the year, gross production was 282 million cubic feet a day, down from 294 million cubic feet in the nine months of 2009. The lower production volume was primarily a result of maintenance activities and natural reservoir decline.
The company is currently reconfiguring its Kearl project development plan to include a combination of debottlenecking and expansion to minimize facility requirements and to reduce the plant footprint. The approach will leverage our execution learnings, take advantage of the investments in infrastructure that would not need to be duplicated in the future and will utilize our successful “design one, build many” approach to replicate facilities. The overall production profile and total resource developed at Kearl remain relatively unchanged for the reconfigured project. It is expected that the capital investments’ spending profile of the first phase of the project will be higher based on the adjustments mentioned above.
Downstream
Net income was $69 million in the third quarter of 2010, compared with $62 million in the same period a year ago. Improved refinery operations as well as improved sales volumes when compared to the low levels in the third quarter of 2009 contributed about $25 million to the earnings increase. These factors were partially offset by lower overall margins of about $20 million, which included the negative impact of the third-party pipeline outages.
Nine-month net income was $176 million, compared with $226 million in 2009. Lower earnings were primarily due to lower overall margins of about $110 million and the unfavourable effects of a stronger Canadian dollar of about $60 million. These factors were partially offset by the favourable impacts of about $75 million associated with improved refinery operations and lower refinery maintenance activities and $35 million gain from sale of non-operating assets.
Chemical
Net income was $23 million in the third quarter, $4 million higher than the same quarter last year. Improved industry margins for polyethylene and intermediate products were partially offset by lower sales volumes for polyethylene products. Nine-month net income was $44 million, up $14 million from the same period in 2009. Improved industry margins were partially offset by lower sales volumes for polyethylene products and higher costs due to planned maintenance activities.
12
Corporate and other
Net income effects were negative $22 million in the third quarter, compared with $27 million in the same period of 2009. The change in earnings effects was primarily due to changes in share-based compensation charges in the third quarter of 2010. For the nine months of 2010, net income was negative $47 million, in line with the negative $44 million reported last year.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Cash flow generated from operating activities was $965 million during the third quarter of 2010, compared with $698 million in the same period last year. Higher cash flow was primarily driven by working capital effects partially offset by lower earnings. Year-to-date cash flow generated from operating activities was $2,203 million, compared with $664 million in the same period last year. Higher cash flow was primarily due to higher earnings and working capital effects, partially offset by higher 2010 funding contributions to the company’s registered pension plan.
Investing activities used net cash of $1,113 million in the third quarter, an increase of $568 million from the corresponding period in 2009. Additions to property, plant and equipment were $1,147 million in the third quarter, compared with $554 million during the same quarter 2009. For the Upstream segment, expenditures during the quarter were primarily directed towards the advancement of the Kearl oil sands project. Other investments included development drilling at Cold Lake, exploration drilling at Horn River as well as environmental and other projects at Syncrude. The Downstream segment’s capital expenditures were focused mainly on refinery projects to improve reliability, feedstock flexibility, energy efficiency and air emissions.
Cash from financing activities was $135 million in the third quarter, compared with cash used in financing activities of $85 million in the third quarter of 2009. In the third quarter, the company increased its debt level by $228 million by drawing on existing facilities.
During the third quarter of 2010, the company did not make any share repurchases except those to offset the dilutive effects from the exercise of stock options. The company will continue to evaluate its share-purchase program in the context of its overall capital project activities.
Cash dividends of $93 million were paid in the third quarter of 2010 compared with dividends of $85 million in the same period of 2009. Per-share dividends declared in the first nine months of 2010 totaled $0.32, up from $0.30 in the same period of 2009.
The above factors led to a decrease in the company’s balance of cash to $51 million at September 30, 2010, from $513 million at the end of 2009.
| Item 3. | Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk. |
Information about market risks for the nine months ended September 30, 2010 does not differ materially from that discussed on page 23 in the company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009. Additional discussion of risk is highlighted in Part II, Item 1A, Risk Factors, on page 15 of the Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended September 30, 2010.
13
| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
As indicated in the certifications in Exhibit 31 of this report, the company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer have evaluated the company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2010. Based on that evaluation, these officers have concluded that the company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective in ensuring that information required to be disclosed by the company in the reports that it files or submits under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, is accumulated and communicated to them in a manner that allows for timely decisions regarding required disclosures and are effective in ensuring that such information is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission’s rules and forms.
There has not been any change in the company’s internal control over financial reporting during the last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, the company’s internal control over financial reporting.
14
Information about risk factors does not differ materially from the discussion found in Item 1A of the company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2009. The company’s activities in deep water oil and gas exploration are limited. However, there are operational risks inherent in oil and gas exploration and production activities, as well as the potential to incur substantial financial liabilities if those risks are not effectively managed. The ability to insure such risks is limited by the capacity of the applicable insurance markets, which may not be sufficient to cover the likely cost of a major adverse operating event such as a deepwater well blowout. Accordingly, the company’s primary focus is on prevention, including through our rigorous Operations Integrity Management System. Our future results will depend on the continued effectiveness of these efforts.
Future changes to laws and regulations may have the effect of increasing the cost of, and reducing available opportunities for, offshore exploration and production.
Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.
During the period July 1, 2010 to September 30, 2010, the company issued 11,727 common shares to employees or former employees outside the U.S.A. for $15.50 per share upon the exercise of stock options. These issuances were not registered under the Securities Act in reliance on Regulation S thereunder.
