EXPLANATORY NOTE

Shell plc (the “Company”) is filing this Amendment No. 1 to Form 20-F/A (“Form 20-F/A”) for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 to include the Consolidated Financial Statements and Ernst & Young LLP’s (“EY”) reissued audit opinions on Shell plc’s Consolidated Financial Statements and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting for the year ended and as of December 31, 2024, respectively. This Form 20-F/A amends the annual report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 (“Original Filing”) filed by Shell plc with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on March 25, 2025 (“Original Filing Date”).

On July 1, 2025, the Company’s Audit and Risk Committee was informed by EY, the Company's independent registered public accounting firm, that (i) for the year ended December 31, 2024, EY’s independence was impaired due to non-compliance with the SEC's auditor independence rules related to audit partner rotation requirements; and (ii) solely as a consequence of this determination, EY was withdrawing its audit report dated March 25, 2025 on the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024 and its report dated March 25, 2025 on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, and that such reports should no longer be relied upon.

To address the independence impairment, EY assigned a different partner to perform the role of lead audit partner with respect to the audit of Shell plc’s Consolidated Financial Statements and effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting for the year ended and as of December 31, 2024, respectively. The audit overseen by the new audit partner did not result in any changes to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements for the year ended December 31, 2024. To reflect the new issuance date of the Consolidated Financial Statements in this Form 20-F/A, consequential updates were included with respect to the going concern period included in the Basis of presentation note (Note 1) and the Post-balance sheet events note (Note 36) to the Consolidated Financial Statements.
Pursuant to Rule 12b-15 of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), the certifications required pursuant to Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act, and the consent of the independent registered public accounting firm that were included as exhibits to the Original Filing, have been re-executed as of the date of this Form 20-F/A and are included as Exhibits 12.1, 12.2, 13.1 and 15.1, respectively.
Other than as described above, this Form 20-F/A does not and does not purport to amend, update or revise in any way the disclosures made in the Original Filing. This Form 20-F/A should be read in conjunction with the Original Filing and other information that Shell plc has filed or furnished to the SEC subsequent to the Original Filing Date. The Company continues to believe that the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements covering the referenced periods present fairly, in all material respects, the financial condition, results of operations and cash flows of the Company as of the end of and for the referenced periods and that the Company’s internal control over financial reporting was effective as at December 31, 2024.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm
To the Shareholders and Board of Directors of Shell plc
Opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements
We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of Shell plc (Shell or the Company) as of December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the related consolidated statements of income, comprehensive income, changes in equity and cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the "Consolidated Financial Statements"). In our opinion, the Consolidated Financial Statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company at December 31, 2024 and 2023, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the three years in the period ended December 31, 2024, in conformity with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) and in conformity with UK adopted international accounting standards.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework), and our report dated July 2, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Critical audit matters
The critical audit matters communicated below are matters arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that were communicated or required to be communicated to the Audit and Risk Committee and that: (1) relate to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgements. The communication of critical audit matters does not alter in any way our opinion on the Consolidated Financial Statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matters below, providing separate opinions on the critical audit matters or on the accounts or disclosures to which they relate.
The estimation of oil and gas reserves
Description of the matter
As described in Notes 12 and 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, at December 31, 2024, production assets amounted to $102.2 billion and had an associated depreciation, depletion and amortisation (DD&A) charge of $15.0 billion. Joint venture and associates (JVAs) amounted to $23.4 billion. As further described in Note 13, exploration and production impairment losses of $0.8 billion and exploration and production impairment reversals of $74 million were recorded during the year. Oil and gas reserves estimates are used in the calculation of DD&A and impairment testing. The risk is the inappropriate recognition of reserves that impacts these accounting estimates.
Auditing the estimation of oil and gas reserves is complex. There is significant estimation uncertainty in assessing the quantities of reserves and resources in place. The estimates are based on the Company’s central group of experts’ assessments of petroleum initially in place, production curves and certain other inputs, including prices, license expiration date, capex and opex. Estimation uncertainty is further elevated given the transition to a low-carbon economy, which increases the risk of under-utilised or stranded oil and gas assets.
How we addressed the matter in our audit
We obtained an understanding of the controls over Shell's oil and gas reserves' estimation process. We then evaluated the design of these controls and tested their operating effectiveness. For example, we tested management's review controls over changes to year-on-year estimated oil and gas reserves volumes.
We involved professionals with oil and gas reserves audit experience to assist us in evaluating the key assumptions and methodologies applied by management.
Our procedures included, amongst others, observing the internal review and endorsement process at Shell’s Upstream Reserves Committee meetings. These meetings are part of Shell's proved reserves assurance process. Testing that significant additions or reductions in reserves had been made in the period in which new information became available, and assessing whether they were in compliance with Shell's reserves and resources guidance and SEC regulation. Evaluating the professional qualifications and objectivity of management's internal qualified professionals who performed the preparation of the reserve estimates and who are primarily responsible for providing independent review and challenge, and ultimately endorsement of, the reserve estimates.
We also assessed the completeness and accuracy of the inputs used by management in estimating the oil and gas reserves by agreeing the inputs to source documentation. We also performed back testing of historical data to identify indications of estimation bias over time and a sensitivity analysis of the oil and gas reserves balance and its impacts on DD&A.
We evaluated management's estimation of the point at which the operating cash flow from a project becomes negative (the economic limit), as this impacts DD&A and impairment. Where relevant, we assessed whether the economic limit test incorporated Shell's estimate of future carbon costs to reflect the potential impact of climate change and the energy transition.
In order to address the risk of stranded assets, among other procedures, we estimated the carbon intensity of Shell's Upstream and Integrated Gas fields to analyse assets that are currently forecast to be producing beyond 2030 and 2050 and the expected carbon intensity per barrel of those fields. For assets that we identified as carbon intensive that are expected to have material carrying value in 2030 and 2050, we evaluated the risk that the carrying value of these assets will not be recovered. This included considering the decarbonisation plans of these assets and alignment to Shell's strategy.

Impairment of Property, plant & equipment (PP&E) and Joint venture and associates (JVA)
Description of the matter
As described in Notes 12 and 14 to the Consolidated Financial Statements, at December 31, 2024 Shell recognised $102.2 billion of production assets, $50.8 billion of manufacturing, supply and distribution assets (PP&E) (primarily refineries and petrochemical plants) and $23.4 billion of joint ventures and associates (JVAs). As disclosed in Note 13 and 14, in 2024, Shell recognised $1.3 billion and $0.9 billion of impairment losses relating to manufacturing, supply and distribution assets and JVAs respectively.
The recoverable amounts of PP&E and JVAs are sensitive to changes in key assumptions, therefore our audit effort was focused on the completeness and timely identification of indicators of impairment charges or impairment reversals.
Auditing the impairment assessments of PP&E and JVAs is subjective due to the judgement involved in determining whether indicators of impairment or impairment reversal exist, particularly for longer term assets, and the extent of any impairment loss or its reversal.
The key assumptions underpinning the impairment assessments include changes in future commodity price and refining and petrochemical margin assumptions. In addition, management forecast carbon prices, expected production volumes, the assumed weighted average cost of capital (WACC), changes in asset performance and future development plans and the expected useful lives of assets. The estimation of forecast commodity prices and refining and petrochemical margins are particularly judgmental because of, among other factors, increased demand uncertainty and pace of decarbonisation due to climate change and the energy transition.
How we addressed the matter in our audit
We obtained an understanding of the controls over Shell's asset impairment process. We then evaluated the design of these controls and tested their operating effectiveness. For example, we tested the controls over management's identification of indicators of impairment and reversals of impairment and the approval of oil and gas prices and refining margins.
We evaluated Shell's assessment of impairment and impairment reversal triggers, including changes in the forecast commodity price assumptions, movements in oil and gas reserves (see oil and gas reserves critical audit matter), changes in asset performance and changes in Shell's business and operating plan assumptions. We further considered assets with high carbon intensity as a potential indicator of impairment, given Shell's climate-related targets and ambitions.
We considered potential impairment triggers related to climate change and energy transition by estimating the carbon intensity of Shell's Upstream and Integrated Gas fields and identifying the most carbon intensive assets. We performed correlation between reserves, production and emissions data and assessed management's plans to reduce the carbon intensity of these assets in the future to determine whether there is a material risk that reserves recognised will not be produced or if the carbon intensity limited the expected useful lives of the assets. We assessed consistency of Shell's plans to reduce the carbon intensity of these assets with their climate-related targets and ambitions and whether these actions have been reflected in Shell's operating plan, which impact Shell's financial statements and disclosures. Also, we assessed the incremental carbon cost that would be incurred if all decarbonisation projects at highly carbon intensive assets were to be removed from Shell's operating plan.
In addition, we considered contradictory evidence, such as the results of comparable market transactions by other energy companies in jurisdictions with similar environmental and regulatory focus that could indicate a material increase or decrease in the recoverable amount of Shell's assets. We also considered Shell's climate-related targets and ambitions and whether these could impact the future potential value of any assets. We performed a risk assessment on Shell's assets from a climate change physical risk perspective, considering asset and geographical specific factors to assess whether the existence of any increased physical risks represented a trigger for impairment. We then obtained an understanding of how management has incorporated historic, current and potential future asset integrity plans in the Shell operating plan.
We also assessed potential operational changes that have or are expected to have a significant adverse effect on an asset and whether such unplanned shutdowns should be considered as impairment triggers.
To test Shell's commodity price assumptions, amongst other procedures, we compared future short and long-term oil and gas prices to an independently developed reasonable range of forecasts based on consensus analysts' forecasts and those adopted by other international oil companies. To evaluate the impact of energy transition on Shell's commodity price forecasts applied in the preparation of the financial statements, we compared Shell's oil and gas price scenarios to the IEA's Net Zero Emissions 2050 (NZE) and to the IEA's Announced Pledges Scenario (APS) price assumptions. We evaluated the reasonableness of Shell's refining margin assumptions by comparing these to independent market and consultant forecasts. Through the IEA scenarios on World Energy Consumption, we considered the expected impact on demand for oil products and chemicals in a transition to a net zero economy. We also involved our oil and gas valuations specialists to assess the reasonableness of Shell's refining margin estimation methodology and assumptions, including evaluating long-run demand forecasts, incorporating the impacts of the energy transition, supply dynamics, and the speed of the industry's response to changing demand through either constructing new refineries or closing older refineries. Given the downward pressure on refining margins, we assessed whether this represented a trigger for impairment by assessing the impact of reduced margins in the context of the overall lives of Shell's petrochemicals facilities.
To evaluate the accuracy of significant assumptions we performed a lookback by comparing actual performance of assets to the forecasts made in the prior year.
We assessed the adequacy of Shell's disclosure of information about the assumptions Shell makes that could, in the future, have a significant risk of material adjustments to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities, including sensitivity disclosures. This included evaluating the sensitivity disclosures in Note 4 of the carrying value of Shell's Upstream, Integrated Gas and Chemicals and Products PP&E assets against a range of future oil and gas price assumptions, reflecting reduced demand scenarios due to climate change and the energy transition, including the IEA Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario.

Accounting and valuation of complex Gas & Power physical and financial derivatives
Description of the matter
As described in Note 26, Shell recognised derivative financial instrument assets of $10.0 billion and derivative financial instrument liabilities of $9.6 billion. As described in Note 7 of the Consolidated Financial Statements, at December 31, 2024 Shell recognised $284 billion of revenue. A subset of the consolidated revenue relates to Gas & Power transactions, where there is a risk of unrealised revenues being inappropriately recorded.
Shell executes and settles standard and non-standard complex trades.
Auditing complex trades is challenging due to the significant judgement needed to determine the appropriate accounting treatment, and the key assumptions used in valuing the trades. Further, trading often does not take place in active markets where prices are readily available, especially for longer-dated contracts. This increases the subjectivity in determining the pricing curve and volatility assumptions, which are essential inputs for valuing the trades and in determining unrealised gains and losses.
How we addressed the matter in our audit
We obtained an understanding of the controls over Shell's process for the recognition of revenue relating to unrealised trading gains and losses, including controls over management's complex deals accounting and valuations. We then evaluated the design of these controls and tested their operating effectiveness.
Amongst other procedures, we involved audit professionals with experience auditing large commodity trading organisations.
We obtained an understanding of the commercial rationale of complex deals by analysing the executed agreements and through discussions with management. We assessed the accounting treatment of each of the complex deals taking into consideration actual contract terms and previous accounting judgements.
We assessed the completeness of the list of complex deals and performed external confirmation procedures for the existence and completeness of contract terms.
We assessed the reasonableness of Shell's derivative valuation methodology by comparing it to market practice, analysing whether a consistent framework was applied and assessed the consistency of inputs used in deal valuations and other assumptions.
We tested the forward pricing curve and volatility assumptions in management's valuation models, including comparison to external broker quotes, market consensus providers, and our independent assessments and recalculated the mark to market valuation including reserves if any, against validated forward pricing curves to ensure it is consistent with Shell’s mark to market valuation.
We involved EY valuation specialists to assist us in testing management's valuation models of Level 3 contracts, including the valuation of long-dated offtake contracts and those with illiquid tenor or price components. Our valuations were established using externally sourced inputs, where available.

Opinion on Internal Control over Financial Reporting
We have audited Shell plc's internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (2013 framework) (the COSO criteria). In our opinion, Shell plc (the Company) maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2024, based on the COSO criteria.
We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Consolidated Financial Statements of the Company, and our report dated July 2, 2025, expressed an unqualified opinion thereon.
Basis for Opinion
The Company's management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting included in the accompanying Management's Report on Internal Control over Financial Reporting as set out in the Other regulatory and statutory information section. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.
We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.
Definition and Limitations of Internal Control over Financial Reporting
A company's internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company's internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorisations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorised acquisition, use, or disposition of the company's assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.
Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements
1. Basis of preparation
The Consolidated Financial Statements of Shell plc (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (collectively referred to as "Shell") have been prepared in accordance with UK-adopted international accounting standards and with the requirements of the UK Companies Act 2006 as applicable to companies reporting under those standards. As applied to Shell, there are no material differences from the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB); therefore, the Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with the IFRS as issued by the IASB.
As described in the accounting policies in Note 2, the Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention except for certain items measured at fair value. Those accounting policies have been applied consistently in all periods.
The Consolidated Financial Statements were approved and authorised for issue by the Board of Directors on July 2, 2025.
Going concern
These Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared on the going concern basis of accounting. In assessing the appropriateness of the going concern assumption for a period of at least 12 months from the issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements (the "going concern period"), management has stress-tested Shell's most recent financial projections to incorporate a range of potential future outcomes by considering Shell's principal risks, potential downside pressures on commodity prices and long-term demand, and cash preservation measures, including reduced future cash capital expenditure and shareholder distributions. This assessment confirmed that Shell has adequate cash, other liquid resources and undrawn credit facilities to enable it to meet its obligations as they fall due in order to continue its operations during the going concern period. Therefore, the Directors consider it appropriate to continue to adopt the going concern basis of accounting in preparing the audited Consolidated Financial Statements.

2. Material accounting policies, judgements and estimates
This Note describes Shell's material accounting policies. It allows for an understanding as to how material transactions, other events and conditions are reported. It also describes: (a) judgements, apart from those involving estimations, that management makes in applying the policies that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the Consolidated Financial Statements; and (b) estimations, including assumptions about the future, that management makes in applying the policies. The sources of estimation uncertainty that have a significant risk of a material adjustment to the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities within the next financial year are specifically identified as a significant estimate.
The accounting policies applied are consistent with those of the previous financial year.
Nature of the Consolidated Financial Statements
The Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in US dollars (dollars) and comprise the financial statements of the Company and its subsidiaries, being those entities over which the Company has control, either directly or indirectly, through exposure or rights to their variable returns and the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entities. Information about subsidiaries at December 31, 2024, can be found in "Exhibit 8.1: Significant subsidiaries and other related undertakings (audited)".

2. Material accounting policies, judgements and estimates continued
Subsidiaries are consolidated from the date on which control is obtained until the date that such control ceases, using consistent accounting policies. All inter-company balances and transactions, including unrealised profits arising from such transactions, are eliminated. Unrealised losses are also eliminated unless the transaction provides evidence of an impairment of the asset transferred. Non-controlling interest represents the proportion of income, other comprehensive income and net assets in subsidiaries that is not attributable to the Company's shareholders.
Currency translation
Foreign currency transactions are translated using the exchange rate at the dates of the transactions or valuation where items are remeasured. Foreign exchange gains and losses resulting from the settlement of such transactions and from the translation at quarter-end exchange rates of monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies (including those in respect of inter-company balances, unless related to loans of a long-term investment nature) are recognised in income unless when recognised in other comprehensive income in respect of cash flow or net investment hedges. Foreign exchange gains and losses in income are presented within interest and other income or within purchases where not related to financing. Share capital issued in currencies other than the dollar is translated at the exchange rate at the date of issue.
On consolidation, assets and liabilities of non-dollar entities are translated to dollars at year-end rates of exchange, while their statements of income, other comprehensive income and cash flows are translated at monthly average rates. Prior to January 1, 2023, these currency translations were performed at quarterly average rates. This change has no significant impact on Shell's financial reporting. The resulting translation differences are recognised as currency translation differences within other comprehensive income. Upon sale of all or part of an interest in, or upon liquidation of, an entity, the appropriate portion of cumulative currency translation differences related to that entity is generally recognised in income.
Revenue recognition
Revenue from sales of oil, natural gas, chemicals and other products is recognised at the transaction price to which Shell expects to be entitled, after deducting sales taxes, excise duties and similar levies. For contracts that contain separate performance obligations, the transaction price is allocated to those separate performance obligations by reference to their relative stand-alone selling prices.
Revenue is recognised when control of the products has been transferred to the customer. For sales by Integrated Gas and Upstream operations, this generally occurs when the product is physically transferred into a vessel, pipe or other delivery mechanism; for sales by refining operations, it is either when the product is placed onboard a vessel or offloaded from the vessel, depending on the contractually agreed terms; and for sales of oil products and chemicals, it is either at the point of delivery or the point of receipt, depending on contractual conditions.
Revenue resulting from hydrocarbon production from properties in which Shell has an interest with partners in joint arrangements is recognised on the basis of Shell's volumes lifted and sold. Revenue resulting from the production of oil and natural gas under production-sharing contracts (PSCs) is recognised for those amounts relating to Shell's cost recoveries and Shell's share of the remaining production. Gains and losses on derivative contracts and the revenue and costs associated with other contracts that are classified as held primarily for the purpose of being traded are reported on a net basis in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Purchases and sales of hydrocarbons under exchange contracts that are necessary to obtain or reposition feedstocks for the refinery operations are presented net in the Consolidated Statement of Income.
Revenue resulting from arrangements that are not considered contracts with customers is presented as revenue from other sources.
Research and development
Development costs that are expected to generate probable future economic benefits are capitalised as intangible assets. All other research and development expenditure is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income as incurred.
Exploration costs
Hydrocarbon exploration costs are accounted for under the successful efforts method: exploration costs are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income when incurred, except that exploratory drilling costs, including in respect of the recapitalisation of depreciation, are included in property, plant and equipment pending determination of proved reserves. Exploration costs capitalised in respect of exploration wells that are more than 12 months old are written off unless: (a) proved reserves are booked; or (b) (i) they have found commercially producible quantities of reserves; and (ii) they are subject to further exploration or appraisal activity in that either drilling of additional exploratory wells is under way or firmly planned for the near future or other activities are being undertaken to sufficiently progress the assessing of reserves and the economic and operating viability of the project.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill
Recognition
Property, plant and equipment comprise assets owned by Shell, assets held by Shell under lease contracts, and assets operated by Shell as contractor in PSCs. They include rights and concessions in respect of properties with proved reserves ("proved properties") and with no proved reserves ("unproved properties"). Property, plant and equipment, including expenditure on major inspections, and intangible assets are initially recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at cost where it is probable that they will generate future economic benefits. This includes capitalisation of decommissioning and restoration costs associated with provisions for asset retirement (see "provisions"), certain development costs (see "research and development") and the effects of associated cash flow hedges (see "financial instruments") as applicable. Interest is capitalised as an increase in property, plant and equipment on major capital projects during construction. The accounting for exploration costs is described separately (see "exploration costs"). Intangible assets other than goodwill include acquired liquefied natural gas (LNG)
off-take and sales contracts, environmental certificates, power purchase agreements, software costs, retail customer relationships and trademarks.
Property, plant and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill are subsequently carried at cost less accumulated depreciation, depletion and amortisation (including any impairment). Gains and losses on sale are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amounts of assets sold and are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income, within interest and other income.

2. Material accounting policies, judgements and estimates continued
An asset is classified as held for sale if its carrying amount will be recovered principally through sale rather than through continuing use, which is when the sale is highly probable, and it is available for immediate sale in its present condition subject only to terms that are usual and customary for sales of such assets. Assets classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of the carrying amount upon classification and the fair value less costs to sell. Assets classified as held for sale and the associated liabilities are presented separately from other assets and liabilities in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Once assets are classified as held for sale, property, plant and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill are no longer subject to depreciation or amortisation.
Depreciation, depletion and amortisation
Property, plant and equipment related to hydrocarbon production activities are in principle depreciated on a unit-of-production basis over the proved developed reserves of the field concerned, other than assets whose useful lives differ from the lifetime of the field which are depreciated applying the straight-line method. For certain Integrated Gas and Upstream assets, the use of proved developed reserves, which are determined using the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) mandated yearly average oil and gas prices, could result in depreciation charges for these assets which do not reflect the pattern in which their future economic benefits are expected to be consumed as, for example, it may result in assets with long-term expected lives having accelerated or being fully depreciated within one year. Therefore, in these instances, other approaches are applied to determine a reserves base for the purpose of calculating depreciation, such as using management's expectations of future oil and gas prices rather than yearly average prices and using total proved reserves to provide a phasing of periodic depreciation charges that more appropriately reflects the expected utilisation of the assets concerned. (See Note 12).
Rights and concessions in respect of proved properties are depleted on the unit-of-production basis over the total proved reserves of the relevant area. Where individually insignificant, unproved properties may be grouped and depreciated based on factors such as the average concession term and past experience of recognising proved reserves.
Property, plant and equipment held under lease contracts, capitalised LNG off-take and sales contracts and power purchase agreements are depreciated or amortised over the term of the respective contract. Other property, plant and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill are depreciated or amortised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. They include energy and chemicals parks (for which the useful life is generally 20 years), retail service stations (for which the useful life is generally 15 years) and major inspection costs, which are depreciated over the estimated period before the next planned major inspection (three to five years). Estimates of the useful lives and residual values of property, plant and equipment and intangible assets other than goodwill are reviewed annually and adjusted if appropriate.
On classification of an asset as held for sale, depreciation ceases.
Impairment
Intangible assets other than goodwill and assets other than unproved properties (see "Exploration costs") are tested for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amounts for those assets may not be recoverable. If any such indication of impairment exists, the carrying amounts of those assets are written down to their recoverable amount, which is the higher of fair value less
costs of disposal (see "Fair value measurements") and value in use.
Value in use is determined as the amount of estimated risk-adjusted discounted future cash flows. For this purpose, assets are grouped into cash-generating units based on separately identifiable and largely independent cash inflows. Estimates of future cash flows used in the evaluation of impairment of assets are made using management's forecasts of commodity prices, market supply and demand, potential costs associated with operational greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, mainly related to CO₂, and forecast product, refining and chemical margins. In addition, management takes into consideration the expected useful lives of the manufacturing facilities, exploration and production assets, and expected production volumes. The latter takes into account assessments of field and reservoir performance and includes expectations about both proved reserves and volumes that are expected to constitute proved reserves in the future (unproved volumes), which are risk-weighted utilising geological, production, recovery and economic projections. Cash flow projections are based on management's most recent Operating Plan that represents management's best estimate and are risked as appropriate. The discount rate is based on a nominal post-tax weighted average cost of capital (WACC). Using a post-tax discount rate to calculate value in use does not result in a materially different outcome than using a pre-tax discount rate. (See Note 13).
Impairments are reversed as applicable to the extent that the events or circumstances that triggered the original impairment have changed.
Impairment losses and reversals are reported within depreciation, depletion and amortisation.
Upon classification of an asset as held for sale, the carrying amount is impaired if this exceeds the fair value less costs to sell.

2. Material accounting policies, judgements and estimates continued

Judgements and estimates
Proved oil and gas reserves
Unit-of-production depreciation, depletion and amortisation charges are principally measured based on management's estimates of proved developed oil and gas reserves. Exploration drilling costs are capitalised pending the results of further exploration or appraisal activity (successful efforts method), which may take place for several years before the final investment decision on a development project is taken and before any related proved reserves can be booked.
Proved reserves are estimated by internal qualified professionals. The proved reserves are estimated with reasonable certainty by analysis of available geological and engineering data at the time of the estimation, and only include volumes for which access to market is assured with reasonable expectation. Yearly average oil and gas prices are used for the estimation of proved reserves unless prices are defined by contractual arrangements, excluding escalations based upon future conditions. Proved reserves are subject to regular revision, both upward or downward, based on new information from the drilling of additional wells, observation of long-term reservoir performance under producing conditions, updates of development plans and changes in economic factors, including product prices, contract terms, legislation or development plans.
Changes to estimates of proved developed reserves affect prospectively the amounts of depreciation, depletion and amortisation charged and, consequently, the carrying amounts of exploration and production assets. Generally, in the normal course of business the diversity of the asset portfolio will limit the net effect of such revisions. The outcome of, or assessment of plans for, exploration or appraisal activity may result in the related capitalised exploration drilling costs being recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income in that period.
Judgement is involved in determining when to use an alternative reserves base in order to appropriately reflect the expected utilisation of the assets concerned (see "Depreciation, depletion and amortisation").
Information about the carrying amounts of exploration and production assets and the amounts charged to the Consolidated Statement of Income, including depreciation, depletion and amortisation and the quantitative impact of the use of an alternative reserves base, is presented in Note 12.
Impairment
For the purposes of determining whether impairment of assets has occurred, and the extent of any impairment loss or its reversal, the key assumptions management uses in estimating risk-adjusted future cash flows for value in use measures are future oil and gas prices and product margins, including refining and chemical margins. In addition, management uses other assumptions, such as potential costs associated with operational GHG emissions, market supply and demand, expected production volumes and forecast expenditure. These assumptions and the judgements of management that are based on them are subject to change as new information becomes available. Changes in assumptions could affect the carrying amounts of assets, and any impairment losses and reversals will affect income. Changes in economic conditions can affect the rate used to discount future cash flow estimates or the risk adjustment in the future cash flows. Judgement is applied to conclude whether changes in assumptions or economic conditions are an indicator that an asset may be impaired or that an impairment loss recognised in prior periods may no longer exist, or may have decreased.
Expected production volumes, which comprise proved reserves and unproved volumes, are used for impairment testing because management believes this to be the most appropriate indicator of expected future cash flows. Reserves estimates are inherently imprecise. Furthermore, projections about unproved volumes are based on information that is necessarily less robust than that available for mature reservoirs.
Estimation is involved with respect to the expected life of energy and chemicals parks, including management's view on the future development of refining margins.
The determination of cash-generating units requires judgement. Changes in this determination could impact the calculation of value in use and therefore the conclusion on the recoverability of assets' carrying amounts when performing an impairment test.
Judgement, which is subject to change as new information becomes available, can be required in determining when an asset is classified as held for sale. A change in that judgement could result in impairment charges affecting income, depending on whether classification requires a write-down of the asset to its fair value less costs to sell.
Significant estimates
In assessing the value in use, the estimated risk-adjusted future post-tax cash flows are discounted to their present value using a post-tax discount rate that reflects Shell's post-tax WACC. (See Note 13). The level of risking reflected in the cash flow assumptions is a consideration in management's assessment of the discount rate to be applied in order to avoid duplication of systemic and asset-specific risking in calculating value in use, and to ensure the discount rate applied is commensurate with risks included in forecast cash flows.
Assumptions about future commodity prices and refining and chemical margins used in the impairment testing in, respectively, Integrated Gas and Upstream, and Chemicals and Products (see Note 13) are regularly assessed by management, noting that management does not necessarily consider short-term increases or decreases in prices as being indicative of long-term levels.
The price methodology applied is based on Shell management's understanding and interpretation of demand and supply fundamentals in the near term, taking into account various other factors such as industry rationalisation and energy transition in the long term.
The discount rate, future commodity prices and refining margins used in impairment testing provide a source of estimation uncertainty as referred to in paragraph 125 of IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements (IAS 1.125).
Information about the carrying amounts of assets and impairments and their sensitivity to changes in significant estimates is presented in Note 13.

Goodwill
Goodwill is initially measured as the excess of the aggregate of the consideration transferred and the amount recognised for any non-controlling interest over the fair value of the identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in a business combination at the acquisition date. The amount recognised for any non-controlling interest is measured as a percentage of the identified net assets of the acquiree based on the present ownership's proportionate share. At the acquisition date, acquired goodwill is allocated to each cash-generating unit (CGU), or groups of CGUs, expected to benefit from the combination's synergies. The CGU to which goodwill is allocated represents the lowest level at which the goodwill will be monitored and managed.
Goodwill is not amortised and is subsequently measured at the initial amount recognised less any accumulated impairment losses. (See Note 11).
Impairment
The carrying amount of goodwill is tested for impairment at least annually. Impairment is determined for goodwill by assessing the recoverable amount of each CGU to which the goodwill relates. An impairment loss is recognised when the CGU's recoverable amount is lower than its carrying amount. (See Note 13).
Previously recognised impairment losses of goodwill are not reversed subsequently.
Leases
A contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to control the use of an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for payments to be made to the owners (lessors) is accounted for as a lease. Contracts are assessed to determine whether a contract is, or contains, a lease at the inception of a contract or when the terms and conditions of a contract are significantly changed. The lease term is the non-cancellable period of a lease, together with contractual options to extend or to terminate the lease early, where it is reasonably certain that an extension option will be exercised or a termination option will not be exercised.
At the commencement of a lease contract, a lease liability and a corresponding right-of-use asset are recognised, unless the lease term is 12 months or less. The commencement date of a lease is the date on which the underlying asset is made available for use. The lease liability is measured at an amount equal to the present value of the lease payments during the lease term that are not paid at that date. The lease liability includes contingent rentals and variable lease payments that depend on an index, rate, or where they are fixed payments in substance. The lease liability is remeasured when the contractual cash flows of variable lease payments change due to a change in an index or rate when the lease term changes following a reassessment.
Lease payments are discounted using the interest rate implicit in the lease. If that rate is not readily available, the incremental borrowing rate is applied. The incremental borrowing rate reflects the rate of interest that the lessee would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar nature and value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment.
In general, a corresponding right-of-use asset is recognised for an amount equal to each lease liability, adjusted by the amount of any pre-paid lease payment relating to the specific lease contract. The depreciation on right-of-use assets is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income unless capitalised as exploration drilling cost (see "exploration cost") or capitalised when the right-of-use asset is used to construct another asset.
Where Shell is the lessor in a lease arrangement at inception, the lease arrangement will be classified as a finance lease or an operating lease. Classification is based on the extent to which the risks and rewards incidental to ownership of the underlying asset lie with the lessor or the lessee.
Where Shell, usually in its capacity as operator, has entered into a lease contract on behalf of a joint arrangement, a lease liability is recognised to the extent that Shell has primary responsibility for the lease liability. A finance sublease is subsequently recognised if the related right-of-use asset is subleased to the joint arrangement. This is usually the case when the joint arrangement has the right to direct the use and obtains substantially all of the economic benefits from using the asset.
Impairment of the right-of-use asset
Right-of-use assets are subject to existing impairment requirements as set out in "Property, plant and equipment", above, and as presented
in Note 13.
Judgements and estimates
A lease term includes optional lease periods where it is reasonably certain Shell will exercise the option to extend or not exercise the option to terminate the lease. Determination of the lease term is subject to judgement and has an impact on the measurement of the lease liability and related right-of-use asset. When assessing the lease term at the commencement date, Shell takes into consideration the broader economics of the contract. Reassessment of the lease term is performed upon changes in circumstances that may affect the probability that an option to extend or to terminate the lease will be exercised.
Where the rate implicit in the lease is not readily available, an incremental borrowing rate is applied. This incremental borrowing rate reflects the rate of interest that the lessee would have to pay to borrow over a similar term, with a similar security, the funds necessary to obtain an asset of a similar nature and value to the right-of-use asset in a similar economic environment. Determination of the incremental borrowing rate requires estimation.

Joint arrangements and associates
Arrangements under which Shell has contractually agreed to share control (see "Nature of the Consolidated Financial Statements" for the definition of control) with another party or parties are joint ventures where the parties have rights to the net assets of the arrangement, or joint operations where the parties have rights to the assets and obligations for the liabilities relating to the arrangement. Investments in entities over which Shell has significant influence but neither control nor joint control are classified as associates. Information about incorporated joint arrangements and associates at December 31, 2024, can be found in "Exhibit 8.1: Significant subsidiaries and other related undertakings (audited)".
Investments in joint ventures and associates are accounted for using the equity method, under which the investment is initially recognised at cost and subsequently adjusted for the Shell share of post-acquisition income less dividends received and the Shell share of other comprehensive income and other movements in equity, together with any loans of a long-term investment nature. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of joint ventures and associates to bring the accounting policies used into line with those of Shell. In an exchange of assets and liabilities for an interest in a joint venture, the non-Shell share of any excess of the fair value of the assets and liabilities transferred over the pre-exchange carrying amounts is recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income. Unrealised gains on other transactions between Shell and its joint ventures and associates are eliminated to the extent of Shell's interest in them; unrealised losses are treated similarly but may also result in an assessment of whether the asset transferred is impaired.
Shell recognises its assets and liabilities relating to its interests in joint operations, including its share of assets held jointly and liabilities incurred jointly with other partners.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower. Cost comprises direct purchase costs (including transportation), and associated costs incurred in bringing inventories to their present condition and location, and is determined using the first-in, first-out (FIFO) method for oil, gas and chemicals and by the weighted average cost method for materials.
Taxation
The charge for current tax is calculated based on the income reported by the Company and its subsidiaries, as adjusted for items that are
non-taxable or disallowed and using rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date.
Deferred tax is determined, using the liability method, on temporary differences arising between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their carrying amounts in the Consolidated Balance Sheet and on unused tax losses and credits carried forward.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are calculated using the enacted or substantively enacted rates that are expected to apply when an asset is realised or a liability is settled. They are not recognised where they arise on the initial recognition of goodwill or of an asset or liability in a transaction (other than in a business combination) that, at the time of the transaction, affects neither accounting nor taxable profit, or in respect of taxable temporary differences associated with subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates where the reversal of the respective temporary difference can be controlled by Shell and it is probable that it will not reverse in the foreseeable future.
Deferred tax assets are recognised to the extent that it is probable that future taxable profits will be available against which the deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and credits carried forward can be utilised.
Income tax receivables and payables as well as deferred tax assets and liabilities include provisions for uncertain income tax positions/treatments.
Income taxes are recognised in income except when they relate to items recognised in other comprehensive income, in which case the tax is recognised in other comprehensive income. Income tax assets and liabilities are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheet except where there is a right of offset within fiscal jurisdictions and an intention to settle such balances on a net basis.
Judgements and estimates
Tax liabilities are recognised when it is probable that there will be a future outflow of funds to a taxing authority. In such cases, a provision is made for the amount expected to be settled, provided it can be reasonably estimated. Provisions for uncertain income tax positions/treatments are measured at the most likely amount or the expected value method, depending on which method better predicts the resolution of the uncertainty. Generally, uncertain tax treatments are assessed on an individual basis unless they are expected to be settled collectively. It is assumed that taxing authorities will examine positions taken if they have the right to do so and have full knowledge of the relevant information. Changes in estimates regarding the likelihood of a future outflow of funds or the expected amount to be settled are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income in the period in which the change occurs. This process requires the application of judgement, which can change over time depending on new facts and circumstances. Judgements primarily relate to transfer pricing, including inter-company financing, interpretation of PSCs, deductible expenditure for tax purposes, and taxation arising from disposal.

Judgements and estimates continued
Deferred tax assets are recognised only to the extent it is considered probable that those assets will be recoverable. This involves an assessment of when those assets are likely to reverse, and a judgement as to whether or not there will be sufficient taxable profits available to offset the assets when they do reverse. This requires assumptions regarding future profitability and is therefore inherently uncertain. To the extent assumptions regarding future profitability change, there can be an increase or decrease in the amounts recognised in respect of deferred tax assets as well as in the amounts recognised in income in the period in which the change occurs.
Taxation information, including charges and deferred tax assets and liabilities, is presented in Note 23. Income taxes include certain charges at higher rates levied on income from certain Integrated Gas and Upstream activities.
Retirement benefits
Benefits in the form of retirement pensions and health care and life insurance are provided to certain employees and retirees under defined benefit and defined contribution plans.
Obligations under defined benefit plans are calculated annually by independent actuaries using the projected unit credit method, which takes into account employees' years of service and, for pensions, average or final pensionable remuneration, and are discounted to their present value using interest rates of high-quality corporate bonds denominated in the currency in which the benefits will be paid and of a duration consistent with the plan obligations. Where plans are funded, payments are made to independently managed trusts; assets held by those trusts are measured at fair value. Defined benefit plan surpluses are recognised as assets to the extent that they are considered recoverable, which is generally by way of a refund or lower future employer contributions.
The amounts recognised in income in respect of defined benefit plans mainly comprise service cost and net interest. Service cost comprises principally the increase in the present value of the obligation for benefits resulting from employee service during the period (current service cost) and also amounts relating to past service and settlements or amendments of plans. Plan amendments are changes to benefits and are generally recognised when all legal and regulatory approvals have been received and the effects have been communicated to members. Net interest is calculated using the net defined benefit liability or asset matched against the discount rate yield curve at the beginning of each year for each plan. Remeasurements of the net defined benefit liability or asset resulting from actuarial gains and losses, and the return on plan assets excluding the amount recognised in income, are recognised in other comprehensive income.
For defined contribution plans, pension expense represents the amount of employer contributions payable for the period.
Significant judgements and estimates
Defined benefit obligations and plan assets, and the resulting liabilities and assets that are recognised, require significant estimation as these are subject to volatility as (actuarial) assumptions regarding future outcomes and market values change. Significant judgement is required in determining the actuarial assumptions, which vary for the different plans to reflect local conditions but are determined under a common process in consultation with independent actuaries. The assumptions applied in respect of each plan are reviewed annually and adjusted where necessary to reflect changes in experience and actuarial recommendations.
Actuarial assumptions applied in determining defined benefit obligations provide a source of estimation uncertainty as referred to in IAS 1.125.
Information about the amounts reported in respect of defined benefit pension plans, assumptions applicable to the principal plans and their sensitivity to changes in significant estimates is presented in Note 24.
Provisions
Provisions are recognised at the balance sheet date at management's best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation. Non-current amounts are discounted at a rate intended to reflect the time value of money. The carrying amounts of provisions and the discount rate applied are regularly reviewed and adjusted for new facts or changes in law, technology or financial markets.

Provisions for decommissioning and restoration costs, which arise principally in connection with hydrocarbon production facilities, oil products manufacturing facilities and pipelines, are measured on the basis of current requirements, technology and price levels; the present value is calculated using amounts discounted over the useful economic life of the assets. The liability is recognised (together with a corresponding amount as part of the related property, plant and equipment) once a legal or constructive obligation arises to dismantle an item of property, plant and equipment and to restore the site on which it is located and when a reasonable estimate can be made. The effects of changes resulting from revisions to the timing or the amount of the original estimate of the provision are reflected on a prospective basis, generally by adjustment to the carrying amount of the related property, plant and equipment. However, where there is no related asset, or the change reduces the carrying amount to nil, the effect, or the amount in excess of the reduction in the related asset to nil, is recognised in income.
Shell reviews its energy and chemicals parks on a regular basis to determine whether any changes in assumptions, including expected life, trigger the need to recognise a provision for decommissioning and restoration.
Redundancy provisions are recognised when a detailed formal plan identifies the business or part of the business concerned, the location and number of employees affected, a detailed estimate of the associated costs and an appropriate timeline, and the employees affected have been notified of the plan's main features.
An onerous contract provision is recognised when the unavoidable cost of meeting the obligations under the contract exceeds the economic benefits expected to be received under it. The unavoidable cost under a contract is the lower of the cost of fulfilling the contract and any compensation or penalties arising from failure to fulfil it. The cost of fulfilling a contract comprises the costs that relate directly to the contract. Before an onerous provision is recognised Shell first recognises any impairment loss that has occurred on assets dedicated to that contract.
Other provisions are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income in the period in which an obligation arises and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Provisions are measured based on current legal requirements and existing technology where applicable. Recognition of any joint and several liability is based on management's best estimate of the final pro rata share of the liability. Provisions are determined independently of expected insurance recoveries. Recoveries are recognised when virtually certain of realisation.
Estimates
Estimates of provisions for future decommissioning and restoration costs are recognised and based on current legal and constructive requirements, technology and price levels. Because actual cash outflows can differ from estimates due to changes in laws, regulations, public expectations, technology, prices and conditions, and can take place many years in the future, the carrying amounts of provisions are regularly reviewed and adjusted to take account of such changes.
Significant estimate
The discount rate applied to reflect the time value of money in the carrying amount of provisions requires estimation. The discount rate used in the calculation of provisions is the pre-tax rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money. Generally, the market assessments of the time value of money can be reflected in the risk-free rate and given the long-term investment nature of oil and gas business, Shell considers it appropriate to use the 20-year US Treasury bond yield return as the risk-free rate. The discount rate applied is reviewed regularly and adjusted following changes in market rates.
The discount rate applied to determine the carrying amount of provisions provides a source of estimation uncertainty as referred to in IAS 1.125.
Information about decommissioning and restoration provisions and their sensitivity to changes in estimates is presented in Note 25.
Financial instruments
Financial assets and liabilities are presented separately in the Consolidated Balance Sheet except where there is a legally enforceable right of offset and Shell has the intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously.
Financial assets
Financial assets are classified at initial recognition and subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through other comprehensive income or fair value through profit or loss. The classification of financial assets is determined by the contractual cash flows and where applicable the business model for managing the financial assets.
Debt instruments are measured at amortised cost, if the objective of the business model is to hold the financial asset in order to collect contractual cash flows and the contractual terms give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest. It is initially recognised at fair value plus or minus transaction costs that are directly attributable to the acquisition or issue of the financial asset. Subsequently, the financial asset is measured using the effective interest method less any impairment. Gains and losses are recognised in profit or loss when the asset is derecognised, modified or impaired.
All equity instruments and other debt instruments are recognised at fair value. For equity instruments, on initial recognition, an irrevocable election (on an instrument-by-instrument basis) can be made to designate these as at fair value through other comprehensive income instead of fair value through profit or loss. Dividends received on equity instruments are recognised as other income in profit or loss when the right of payment has been established, except when Shell benefits from such proceeds as a recovery of part of the cost of the financial asset, in which case such gains are recorded in other comprehensive income.

Investments in securities
Investments in securities ("securities") comprise equity and debt securities. Equity securities are carried at fair value. Generally, unrealised holding gains and losses are recognised in other comprehensive income. On sale, net gains and losses previously accumulated in other comprehensive income are transferred to retained earnings. Debt securities are generally carried at fair value with unrealised holding gains and losses recognised in other comprehensive income. On sale, net gains and losses previously accumulated in other comprehensive income are recognised in income.
Impairment of financial assets
The expected credit loss model is applied for recognition and measurement of impairments in financial assets measured at amortised cost or at fair value through other comprehensive income. The expected credit loss model is also applied for financial guarantee contracts to which IFRS 9 applies and which are not accounted for at fair value through profit or loss. The loss allowance for the financial asset is measured at an amount equal to the 12-month expected credit losses. If the credit risk on the financial asset has increased significantly since initial recognition, the loss allowance for the financial asset is measured at an amount equal to the lifetime expected credit losses. Changes in loss allowances are recognised in profit or loss. For trade receivables, a simplified impairment approach is applied recognising expected lifetime losses from initial recognition.
Cash and cash equivalents
Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash at bank and in hand, including offsetting bank overdrafts, short-term bank deposits, money market funds, reverse repos and similar instruments that generally have a maturity of three months or less at the date of purchase.
Financial liabilities
Financial liabilities are measured at amortised cost, unless they are required to be measured at fair value through profit or loss, such as instruments held for trading, or Shell has opted to measure them at fair value through profit or loss. Debt and trade payables are recognised initially at fair value based on amounts exchanged, net of transaction costs, and subsequently at amortised cost except for fixed rate debt subject to fair value hedging which is remeasured for the hedged risk (see below). Interest expense on debt is accounted for using the effective interest method, and other than interest capitalised, is recognised in income. For financial liabilities that are measured under the fair value option, the change in the fair value related to own credit risk is recognised in other comprehensive income. The remaining fair value change is recognised at fair value through profit or loss.
Derivative contracts and hedges
Derivative contracts are used in the management of interest rate risk, foreign exchange risk, commodity price risk, and foreign currency cash balances. Derivatives that are not closely related to the host contract in terms of economic characteristics and risks and the host contract of which is not a financial asset are separated from their host contract and recognised at fair value with the associated gains and losses recognised in income.
Contracts to buy or sell a non-financial item that can be settled net in cash are accounted for as financial instruments, with the exception of those contracts that were entered into and continue to be held for the purpose of the receipt or delivery of a non-financial item in accordance with Shell's expected purchase, sale or usage requirements. Gains or losses arising from changes in the fair value of derivatives that are not designated as effective hedging instruments are recognised in income.
Certain derivative contracts qualify and are designated either: as a fair value hedge of the change in fair value of a recognised asset or liability or an unrecognised firm commitment; or as a cash flow hedge for the change in cash flows to be received or paid relating to a recognised asset or liability or a highly probable forecast transaction; or as a net investment hedge of the change in foreign exchange rates associated with net investments in foreign operations with a different functional currency than Shell's functional currency.
A change in the fair value of a hedging instrument designated as a fair value hedge is recognised in income, together with the consequential adjustment to the carrying amount of the hedged item. The effective portion of a change in fair value of a derivative contract designated as a cash flow hedge is recognised in other comprehensive income until the hedged transaction occurs; any ineffective portion is recognised in income. Where the hedged item is a non-financial asset or liability, the amount in accumulated other comprehensive income is transferred to the initial carrying amount of the asset or liability (reclassified to the balance sheet); a net investment hedge is accounted for similarly to a cash flow hedge. Gains or losses on the hedging instrument relating to the effective portion of the hedge are recognised in other comprehensive income while any gains or losses relating to the ineffective portion are recognised in the Consolidated Statement of Income. On disposal of the foreign operation, the cumulative value of any such gains or losses recorded in other comprehensive income is reclassified to the Consolidated Statement of Income.
The effective portion of a change due to retranslation at quarter-end exchange rates in the carrying amount of debt and the principal amount of derivative contracts used to hedge net investments in foreign operations is recognised in other comprehensive income until the related investment is sold or liquidated; any ineffective portion is recognised in income.
All relationships between hedging instruments and hedged items are documented, as well as risk management objectives and strategies for undertaking hedge transactions. The effectiveness of hedges is also continually assessed and hedge accounting is discontinued when there is a change in the risk management strategy.
Unless designated as hedging instruments, contracts to sell or purchase non-financial items that can be settled net as if the contracts were financial instruments and that do not meet expected own-use requirements (typically, forward sale and purchase contracts for commodities in trading operations), and contracts that are or contain written options, are recognised at fair value; associated gains and losses are recognised in income.
Derivatives that are held primarily for the purpose of trading are presented as current in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.

Judgement
Judgement is required to determine whether contracts to buy or sell LNG are capable of being settled on a net basis. Due to the limited liquidity in the LNG market and the lack of net settlement history, contracts to buy or sell LNG are not considered capable of being settled on a net basis. As a result, these contracts are accounted for on an accrual basis and not as a financial instrument.
Fair value measurements
Fair value measurements are estimates of the amounts for which assets or liabilities could be transferred at the measurement date, based on the assumption that such transfers take place between participants in principal markets and, where applicable, taking highest and best use into account.
Estimate
Where available, fair value measurements are derived from prices quoted in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. In the absence of such information, other observable inputs are used to estimate fair value. Inputs derived from external sources are corroborated or otherwise verified, as appropriate. In the absence of publicly available information, fair value is determined using estimation techniques that take into account market perspectives relevant to the asset or liability, in as far as they can reasonably be ascertained, based on predominantly unobservable inputs. For derivative contracts where publicly available information is not available, fair value estimations are generally determined using models and other valuation methods, the key inputs for which include future prices, volatility, price correlation, counterparty credit risk and market liquidity, as appropriate; for other assets and liabilities, fair value estimations are generally based on the net present value of expected future cash flows.
Share-based compensation plans
The fair value of share-based compensation expense arising from the Performance Share Plan (PSP) and the Long-term Incentive Plan (LTIP) -- Shell's main equity-settled plans - is estimated using the average Monte Carlo fair values and is recognised in income from the date of grant over the vesting period with a corresponding increase directly in equity. The model projects and averages the results for a range of potential outcomes for the vesting conditions, the principal assumptions for which are the share price volatility and dividend yields for Shell and four of its main competitors using respectively three years and 10 years of historical data.
Shares held in trust
Shares in the Company, which are held by employee share ownership trusts and trust-like entities, are not included in assets but are reflected at cost as a deduction from equity as shares held in trust.
Acquisitions and sales of interests in a business
Assets acquired and liabilities assumed when control is obtained over a business, and when an interest or an additional interest is acquired in a joint operation which is a business, are recognised at their fair value at the date of the acquisition; the amount of the purchase consideration above this value is recognised as goodwill. When control is obtained, any non-controlling interest is recognised as the proportionate share of the identifiable net assets. The acquisition of a non-controlling interest in a subsidiary and the sale of an interest while retaining control are accounted for as transactions within equity. The difference between the purchase consideration or sale proceeds after tax and the relevant proportion of the non-controlling interest, measured by reference to the carrying amount of the interest's net assets at the date of acquisition or sale, is recognised in retained earnings as a movement in equity attributable to Shell plc shareholders.
Emission schemes and related environmental programmes
Emission certificates, biofuel certificates and renewable power certificates (together "environmental certificates") held for trading purposes are recognised at cost or net realisable value, whichever is lower, and classified under inventory.
Emission trading schemes
Emission certificates acquired for compliance purposes are initially recognised at cost and classified under intangible assets. In the schemes where a cap is set for emissions, the associated emission certificates granted are recognised at cost, which may be zero. An emission liability is recognised under other liabilities when actual emissions occur that give rise to an obligation. To the extent the liability is covered by emission certificates held for compliance purposes, the liability is measured with reference to the value of these emission certificates held and for the remaining uncovered portion at market value. The associated expense is presented under "Production and manufacturing expenses". Both the emission certificates and the emission liability are derecognised upon settling the liability with the respective regulator.
Biofuel programmes
Biofuel certificates acquired that are held for compliance purposes are initially recognised at cost under intangible assets. Self-generated biofuel certificates are recognised at nil value, as they primarily offset the obligation. A biofuel liability is recognised under other liabilities when the obligation arises under local regulations. To the extent covered by biofuel certificates held for compliance purposes, the liability is measured with reference to the value of these certificates held and for the remaining uncovered portion at market value. The associated expense is presented under "purchases". Biofuel certificates and the biofuel liability are both derecognised upon settling the liability with the respective regulator.

Renewable power programmes
Renewable power certificates acquired for compliance purposes are initially recognised at cost as an intangible asset. Self-generated renewable power certificates are generally transferred to the customer upon sales of electricity. A renewable power liability is recognised under other liabilities when electricity sales take place that give rise to an obligation to retire renewable power certificates. The associated cost is recognised in "purchases" in the income statement. If the obligation relates to power consumed in business operations, it is presented in other liabilities with cost reflected in "Production and manufacturing expenses". To the extent covered by renewable power certificates held for compliance purposes, the liability is measured with reference to the value of these renewable power certificates and for the remaining uncovered portion at market value. Renewable power certificates and the renewable power liability are derecognised upon settling the liability with the respective regulator.
Consolidated Statement of Income presentation
Purchases reflect all costs related to the acquisition of inventories and the effects of the changes therein, and include associated costs incurred in conversion into finished or intermediate products. Production and manufacturing expenses are the costs of operating, maintaining and managing production and manufacturing assets. Selling, distribution and administrative expenses include direct and indirect costs of marketing and selling products.

3. Changes to IFRS not yet adopted
IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements ("IFRS 18")
IFRS 18 was issued in April 2024 and will replace IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements. IFRS 18 will be effective for reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. This standard sets out requirements for the presentation and disclosure of information in financial statements, particularly the Consolidated Statement of Income. The standard introduces a defined structure for the Consolidated Statement of Income, additional defined subtotals, new principles for aggregation and disaggregation of information, and it mandates disclosures about management-defined performance measures.
IFRS 18 will have no impact on recognition and measurement. From Shell's initial impact assessment, it has concluded that the impact will be limited to disclosure and presentation in the Consolidated Financial Statements. The primary change will be that the share of profit from joint ventures and associates will be classified in the Consolidated Statement of Income under the investing category (income generated by the investment) instead of the operating category. As a result of this change, the dividends received from joint ventures and associates will be reclassified in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows from cash flow from operating activities (CFFO) to cash flow from investing activities (CFFI).

4. Climate change and energy transition
This note describes how Shell has considered climate-related impacts in key areas of the financial statements and how this translates into the valuation of assets and measurement of liabilities as Shell makes progress in the energy transition. The note is structured as follows:

Note 2 Material accounting policies, judgements and estimates describes uncertainties, including those that have the potential to have a material effect on the Consolidated Balance Sheet in the next 12 months. This note describes the key areas of climate impacts that potentially have short-, medium- and longer-term effects on amounts recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, 2024. Where relevant, this note contains references to other notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements and aims to provide an overarching summary of the energy transition impact.
In 2021, Shell launched its strategy to become a net-zero emissions energy business by 2050. The strategy aims to deliver more value with less emissions. Shell's targets include those related to its own operations: halve Scope 1 and 2 emissions on a net basis under operational control by 2030, compared with 2016 baseline, achieve methane emissions intensity below 0.2% and achieve near-zero methane emissions by 2030 and eliminate routine gas flaring by 2025. [A] In relation to emissions from the products we sell, Shell has a target to reduce the net carbon intensity of energy products sold by 9-13% by 2025, 15-20% by 2030 and 100% by 2050, compared with a 2016 baseline and an ambition, set in March 2024, to reduce customer emissions (Scope 3, Category 11) related to the use of oil products sold by 15-20% by 2030, compared with 2021. [B]
[A]This target was subject to the completion of the sale of The Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited (SPDC). With effect from January 1, 2025, SPDC ceased routine flaring. On March 13, 2025, Shell completed the sale of SPDC to Renaissance.
[B]Customer emissions from the use of our oil products (Scope 3, Category 11) were 517 million tonnes carbon dioxide equivalent (CO2e) in 2023 and 569 million tonnes CO2e in 2021.
Financial planning and assumptions
This section provides an overview of key assumptions used for financial planning related to climate change and the energy transition. These assumptions that underpin the amounts recognised in these financial statements -- such as future oil and gas prices, future chemical and refining margins, discount rates, future costs of decommissioning and restoration, carbon emission cost and deferred tax assets -- take climate change and energy transition into account and are similarly used for impairment testing of carrying values of assets. The areas described focus on those most pertinent to Shell's business and how financial planning and assumptions interact with scenarios. Subsequently, the sensitivity of carrying values to commodity prices, carbon emission costs, chemical and refining margins, discount rates and demand, if different assumptions were applied, is described.
There is no one single scenario that underpins the financial statements. Shell Scenarios are not predictions. They are designed to stretch management's thinking when it comes to considering events that may be possible, even if only remotely. As a result, these scenarios are not intended to be predictions of likely future events or outcomes and are not the basis for Shell's financial statements and Operating Plans.
Shell Scenarios and the range of possible outcomes inform the development of Shell's strategy and Shell's view on future oil and gas price outlooks, refining margins and chemical margins. The oil and gas price outlooks are one of the key assumptions that underpin Shell's financial statements. Shell's scenarios inform high-, mid- and low-price outlooks. The mid-price outlook represents management's reasonable best estimate and is the basis for Shell's financial statements, Operating Plans and impairment testing. Impairment testing applies management's reasonable best estimates across the full life cycle of assets, which may go beyond the Operating Plan period.
Shell's targets — including to reduce absolute Scope 1 and 2 emissions on a net basis [C] by 50% by 2030, compared with 2016 baseline, and a 15-20% reduction of net carbon intensity [D] by 2030 — have been included in the Operating Plan. The Operating Plan also includes expected costs for evolving carbon regulations (see "Carbon price sensitivities" below) based on a forecast of Shell's equity share of emissions from operated and non-operated assets, also taking into account the estimated impact of free allowances. For impairment testing purposes, key assumptions that underpin the amounts recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, such as future oil and gas prices, refining margins, chemical margins, discount rates, future costs of decommissioning and restoration, carbon emission cost and tax rates, all go beyond the planning horizon in the Operating Plan and do take climate change and energy transition into account.

[A]Following resegmentation in 2024 (see Note 7), prior period comparatives have been revised to conform with current year presentation with an offsetting impact between Marketing and Chemicals & Products segments.

For Integrated Gas and Upstream, sensitivity to commodity prices and carbon prices has been tested (see below) covering the carrying amount of goodwill, other intangible assets, property, plant and equipment, and joint ventures and associates. Sensitivity testing was performed applying alternative price scenarios to the forecasted cash flows for the whole period until the end of life of the asset tested. For Chemicals and Products, sensitivity to chemical margins, refining margins and carbon prices has been tested (see below). Marketing and Renewables and Energy Solutions are expected to be resilient through the energy transition with limited exposure of stranded assets.
In addition, sensitivity to changes in the discount rate applied in impairment testing has also been tested (see below).
In calculating recoverable value, key assumptions are not determined in isolation to ensure relevant interdependencies are appropriately reflected. In particular, management considers the relationship between discount rates, forecast commodity prices and cash flow risking to ensure impairment testing assumptions result in an implicit expected return that is balanced and appropriate for the asset under review. Each of the sensitivities described above has been tested under a ceteris paribus assumption where all other factors remain unchanged, and, as such, does not reflect the potential offsetting effects of corresponding changes in other assumptions.

Within Integrated Gas and Upstream, the assets potentially most sensitive to the energy transition are production assets and exploration and evaluation assets. Both production assets of $102 billion and exploration and evaluation assets of $4 billion are recognised within Property, plant and equipment within Integrated Gas and Upstream.
Portfolio composition and changes
Since 2016, the carrying value of production assets in Integrated Gas and Upstream decreased from $169 billion as at December 31, 2016, to$102 billion as at December 31, 2024. Over this period, depreciation was higher than additions for each year, and disposals of property, plant and equipment with a carrying value of $26 billion occurred. The carrying value of capitalised exploration and evaluation expenses decreased from $19 billion as at December 31, 2016, to $4 billion at December 31, 2024. This is the result of final investment decisions, reclassifications to production assets and amounts charged to expenses exceeding additions.
Estimated useful life
The energy transition and the pace at which it progresses may impact the remaining life of assets. Integrated Gas and Upstream assets are generally depreciated using a unit-of-production methodology where depreciation generally depends on production of SEC proved reserves. (See Note 2). Based on production plans of existing assets, 49%, 7% and 1% of SEC proved reserves as at December 31, 2024, would currently be left by 2030, 2040 and 2050, respectively. Based on the unit-of-production depreciation methodology applied, the carrying value for individual assets are depreciated to nil in the same pattern as the depletion of reserves towards nil. An analysis of Integrated Gas and Upstream production assets of $102 billion as at December 31, 2024, based on planned reserves depletion shows that these assets would be significantly further depreciated under the unit-of-production method by 2030 and nearly fully depreciated by 2050. This provides a further perspective on the risk of stranded assets carried in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2024.
Price sensitivities using climate pricelines
As noted, in accordance with IFRS, Shell's financial statements are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's current best estimate of the range of economic conditions that may exist in the foreseeable future. The mid-price outlook informed by Shell's scenario planning represents management's best estimate. A change of -10% or +10% to the mid-price outlook, as an average percentage over the whole life cycle of assets, would result in around $5-9 billion (2023: $5-8 billion) impairment or $2-5 billion
(2023: $2-5 billion) impairment reversal respectively in Integrated Gas and Upstream (see Note 13).
The energy transition will continue to bring volatility and there is significant uncertainty as to how commodity prices will develop over the next decades. Some pricelines see a structurally lower price during the transition period, while other pricelines see structurally higher commodity prices as a result of changes in supply and demand. As the risk of stranded assets is prevalent with downside price risk in energy transition scenarios, sensitivities have only been undertaken for such downside scenarios. If different price outlooks from external and often normative climate change scenarios were used, this would impact the recoverability of certain assets recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2024. These external scenarios are not representative of management's mid-price reasonable best estimate.
Sensitivity of carrying value to commodity prices described below is under the assumption that all other factors in the models used -- such as cost levels, volumes, mid-price CO2 assumptions and the discount rate -- to calculate recoverability of carrying value remains unchanged. Sensitivity testing has been performed by applying the alternative commodity price scenarios to cash flows for the whole period until the end of life of the assets tested, which may extend beyond the Operating Plan period. The alternative commodity prices were applied in the local cash flow models and thereafter aggregated by segment. Changes to commodity prices are applied because of the significant impact on Shell's business. It should be noted that a significant decrease in long-term forecasted commodity prices would probably lead to further changes, such as in portfolio choices and cost levels.
Sensitivity to changes in commodity prices in value in use calculations has been tested as follows:
Priceline 1 – Average prices from three 1.5-2°C external climate change scenarios: in view of the broad range of price outlooks across the various scenarios, the average of three external price outlooks was taken.

IHS Markit/ACCS 2024 – under this scenario oil prices (real terms 2024 (RT24)) decrease from $110 per barrel (/b) in 2025 to around $100/b in 2026-2027. From 2028 prices gradually decrease from $50/b towards $31/b in 2037, gradually recovering to $92/b in 2048 with a subsequent decrease towards $90/b in 2050. Gas prices (RT24) are around $3 per million British thermal units (/MMBtu) until 2042 and gradually increase towards $4/MMBtu until 2050 for Henry Hub. For Europe, prices decrease from $10/MMBtu in 2025 towards around $4/MMBtu in 2032, with a subsequent increase to some $5 /MMBtu until 2050. For Asia, prices decrease from $11/MMBtu in 2025 towards around $6/MMBtu in 2033, and gradually increase towards $7/MMBtu until 2050.
Woodmac WM AET-1.5 degree – under this scenario oil prices (RT24) gradually decrease from $64/b in 2025 towards $28/b in 2050. Gas prices (RT24) increase from $3/MMBtu in 2025 towards around $4/MMBtu until 2035, staying on that level until 2050 for Henry Hub. For Europe, gas prices (RT24) decrease gradually from around $13/MMBtu in 2025 to some $6/MMBtu in 2030, then gradually increase towards $9/MMBtu in 2035 and subsequently decrease towards $6/MMBtu in 2050. For Asia, gas prices decrease from $14/MMBtu in 2025 to $7/MMBtu in 2030, subsequently increasing to $10/MMBtu around 2036 and subsequently decreasing towards$7/MMBtu in 2050.
IEA NZE50 – under this scenario oil prices (RT24) gradually decrease from $72/b in 2025 towards some $26/b in 2050. Gas prices (RT24) decrease from some$3/MMBtu in 2025 to around $2/MMBtu until 2050 for Henry Hub. For Europe and Asia, gas prices (RT24) decrease from some $10/MMBtu and $11/MMBtu respectively in 2025 to some $4/MMBtu in 2050 for Europe and $5/MMBtu around 2030, for Asia staying at that level until 2050.
This average priceline provides an external view of the development of commodity prices under 1.5-2°C external climate change scenarios over the whole period under review.
Applying this priceline to Integrated Gas assets of $74 billion (2023: $72 billion) and Upstream assets of $77 billion (2023: $84 billion) as at December 31, 2024, shows recoverable amounts that are $11-15 billion (2023: $12-16 billion) and $1-3 billion (2023: $3-5 billion) lower, respectively, than the carrying value as at December 31, 2024.
Priceline–2 - Hybrid Shell Plan and IEA NZE50: this priceline applies Shell's mid-price outlook for the first 10 years (see Note 13). Because of the greater uncertainty for the period after 10 years, the International Energy Agency (IEA) normative Net Zero Emissions scenario is applied. This gives less weight to the price-risk uncertainty in the first 10 years reflected in the Operating Plan period and applies more risk to the more uncertain subsequent periods.
Applying this priceline to Integrated Gas assets of $74 billion (2023: $72 billion) and Upstream assets of $77 billion (2023: $84 billion) as at December 31, 2024, shows recoverable amounts that are $7--10 billion (2023: $8-10 billion) and up to $1 billion (2023: $1-3 billion) lower, respectively, than the carrying value as at December 31, 2024.
Priceline–3 - IEA NZE50: this priceline applies the International Energy Agency normative Net Zero Emissions by 2050 (IEA NZE50) scenario over the whole period under review. This priceline has been applied in order to also reflect the sensitivity to a pure net-zero emissions scenario from the IEA.
Applying this priceline to Integrated Gas assets of $74 billion (2023: $72 billion) and Upstream assets of $77 billion (2023: $84 billion) as at December 31, 2024, shows recoverable amounts that are $21-27 billion (2023: $15-20 billion) and $5-7 billion (2023: $3-5 billion) lower, respectively, than the carrying value as at December 31, 2024. For Integrated Gas the change in sensitivity compared with 2023 is largely driven by lower oil and Asia gas prices applied in sensitivity testing for the whole period under review.

Oil price assumptions
Oil_price_assumptions.jpg
[A]The Network for Greening the Financial System (NGFS) is a group of 143 central banks and supervisors and 21 observers committed to sharing best practices, contributing to the development of climate– and environment–related risk management in the financial sector and mobilising mainstream finance to support the transition toward a sustainable economy. This scenario results from the NGFS GCAM model. This model embodies certain assumptions on the relationships between economic and energy output and climate interactions. This NGFS scenario shows a decline in world oil demand relative to the current policies baseline, in part a response to substitution away from fossil fuels. At the same time prices increase due to supply constraints.
[B]All figures are presented on RT24 basis unless noted differently.
The graph above shows the oil pricelines on a real-terms basis applied for the period until 2050 for Shell's mid-price outlook in comparison with the IEA announced pledges (IEA APS) scenario, the NGFS GCAM NZE 2050 scenario, the average prices from three 1.5-2°C external climate change scenarios (Priceline 1, above) and the IEA Net Zero Emissions by 2050 scenario (IEA NZE50, Priceline 3 above). The development of future oil prices is uncertain and oil prices have been subject to significant volatility in the past. Future oil prices may be impacted by future changes in macroeconomic factors, available supply, demand, geopolitical and other factors. The pricelines as per the scenarios NGFS GCAM NZE 2050, IEA APS, the average prices from three 1.5-2°C external climate change scenarios and IEA NZE50 differ from Shell's best estimate and view of the future oil price.

Carbon price sensitivities
Carbon costs in the Operating Plan
The Operating Plan includes capital expenditure and operating costs to achieve Scope 1 and 2 emission reduction targets (see above). These include asset level abatement project costs that drive efficiencies and reduce emissions, expected costs for evolving carbon regulations based on a forecast of Shell's equity share of emissions and costs of offsets for any residual amounts.
The total capital expenditure for abatement projects which includes energy efficiency improvements, the transformation of energy and chemicals parks, CCS facilities and electrification of our facilities included in the Operating Plan is in excess of $6 billion. Total yearly carbon emission costs in Shell's Operating Plan gradually increase from $1 billion in 2025 to $5 billion in 2034 using the mid-price scenario. The sensitivity of carrying value of assets to changes in carbon prices is described in the section below.
Methods for estimating costs vary, depending on the nature of the cost. Abatement project costs to improve efficiencies and reduce emissions are estimated by applying a bottom-up approach where individual opportunities on an asset-level, project-by-project basis are identified.
Costs for evolving carbon regulations are based on a forecast of Shell's equity share of emissions and are included in the Operating Plan at Shell's mid-price outlook on a country-by-country basis and represent management's best estimate. In the short and near term, up to around 2030, costs for carbon emissions estimates are largely policy driven, through emissions trading schemes or taxation levied by governments which currently vary significantly on a country-by-country basis. Beyond 2030, where policy predictions are more challenging, the costs for carbon emissions are estimated based on the expected costs of abatement technologies required for 2050. The estimated costs are trending towards $50 to $230 per tonne (RT24), depending on the country, in 2050.

Sensitivity to changes in carbon price assumptions
There is significant uncertainty as to how carbon costs will develop over the next decades. These will depend on policies set by countries and the pace of the energy transition. In accordance with IFRS, Shell's financial statements are based on reasonable and supportable assumptions that represent management's current best estimate, which is policy based up to 2030 and then based on the mid-price outlook beyond 2030. As the risk of stranded assets is prevalent with higher carbon emission prices than anticipated, sensitivity analyses have only been undertaken for such a downside scenario. If the IEA NZE50 outlook is applied, this would impact the recoverability of certain assets recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2024. This scenario is not representative of management's mid-price reasonable best estimate.
Sensitivity of carrying value to carbon emission costs as described below is under the assumption that all other factors in the value in use models used to calculate recoverability of carrying value remain unchanged. Changes to carbon emission costs are applied for Integrated Gas, Upstream and Chemicals and Products because of the potential impact on Shell's business.
Applying the IEA NZE50 carbon price scenario to Integrated Gas assets of $74 billion (2023: $72 billion) and Upstream assets of $77 billion (2023: $84 billion), up to the end of life of these assets, shows recoverable amounts that are $1-2 billion (2023: $2-4 billion) lower for Integrated Gas and up to $1 billion lower for Upstream than the carrying value as at December 31, 2024.
Applying the IEA NZE50 carbon price scenario to Chemicals and Products assets of $38 billion shows recoverable amounts that are $1-2 billion lower than the carrying value as at December 31, 2024. For Chemicals and Products, increased carbon cost could however potentially be recovered partially through increased product sale prices.

Within Chemicals and Products, the assets potentially most sensitive to the energy transition are refineries.
Portfolio composition and changes
Since 2016, Shell's Chemicals and Products portfolio has evolved, shifting from 15 refineries at the end of 2016 to eight (of which one is classified as held for sale) at the end of 2024. During that period, Shell assumed the sole ownership of two refineries through the dissolution of the Motiva joint venture, and disposed of, converted or closed nine refineries. Further, during 2024 Shell agreed to sell one refinery (classified as assets held for sale at the end of 2024, see Note 19). The carrying value of refineries decreased from $10 billion as at December 31, 2016, to less than $6 billion as at December 31, 2024. In line with Shell's strategy, it is progressing the repurposing of its energy and chemicals parks; these key focused assets allows Shell to underpin its hydrocarbon energy sales and the sales of lower carbon products.
Estimated useful life
Refineries in the Chemicals and Products segment (carrying value as at December 31, 2024, $6 billion (2023: $6 billion)) may be impacted under a 2°C or less external climate scenario.
For refineries in Chemicals and Products, depreciation of assets is on a straight-line basis over the life of the assets, starting at the date the asset becomes available for use, over a period of 20 years (see Note 2). Over the course of the energy transition, the current carrying value of refineries will be fully depreciated, offset by anticipated investments in assets that are expected to be resilient in the energy transition as described above. Based on current depreciation of the carrying value as at December 31, 2024, and assuming no further investment, all refineries would be fully depreciated between four and 11 years.
In addition to refineries, further assets of $32 billion include $24 billion of assets in relation to Chemicals. This includes $14 billion for the Pennsylvania chemical plant, which started operations in November 2022 and being a more efficient plant, it is expected to be more resilient in the energy transition. Chemical products are not produced with the aim to combust and consequently do not generate GHG emissions. Under the IEA NZE50 scenario chemical production volumes are not expected to decrease towards 2050, compared with current levels and hence chemical assets are expected to be resilient through the energy transition.
Other assets of $8 billion include $5 billion of assets mainly related to storage tanks, vessels, pipelines in trading and supply that are also expected to be resilient in the energy transition.
Price sensitivities
Where available Shell uses external climate scenarios for sensitivity testing. In relation to chemical and refining margin forecasts, no credible climate scenarios have been identified and consequently sensitivity testing is performed by providing sensitivity to changes in margins.
Chemical margins applied for impairment testing by reference to value in use are at an average of $197.5/tonne (20-year average). A change of -$30/tonne or +$30/tonne in long-term chemical margins over the entire cash flow projection period would ceteris paribus result in up to $0.5 billion (2023: up to $2 billion)impairment or no impairment reversal, respectively, in Chemicals and Products (see Note 13).
Refining margins applied for impairment testing by reference to value in use are at an average of $10/bbl (20-year). A change of -$1/bbl or +$1/bbl to the refining margin outlook over the entire cash flow projection period would ceteris paribus result in no impairment (2023: $1-2 billion) or up to $0.5 billion (2023: up to $1 billion) impairment reversal respectively in Chemicals and Products (see Note 13).
Sensitivities to carbon prices are described in the section above.

Portfolio composition and changes
Assets in the Marketing segment are expected to be resilient through the energy transition with a change in the product mix as the energy transition progresses. The demand for products sold — such as chemicals, lubricants, biofuels, bitumen, electric vehicle charging and convenience retail -- is not expected to decrease and is expected to increase for a variety of these products in many markets. Shell is expanding networks of refuelling stations offering low-carbon fuels, including biofuels and various gaseous fuels, such as LNG and bio-LNG. As a result, the carrying value of these assets is not expected to be impacted by the energy transition or lower commodity price scenarios.

Portfolio composition and changes
In 2024 Shell refreshed its renewable generation, energy marketing, and gas and power trading strategy, shifting Shell's asset portfolio towards energy storage and flexible generation with an increased focus on power trading and minimising new investments in offshore wind projects. The aim is to maximise returns from onshore positions using capital-light business models, debt finance and partnerships. The carrying value of assets in the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment in the balance sheet at December 31, 2024, is expected to be resilient through the energy transition.
Other energy transition considerations
Discount rate sensitivity
The discount rate applied for value in use impairment testing is based on a nominal post-tax weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and is determined at 7.5% except for the power activities in the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment where 6% is applied. The discount rate includes generic systematic risk for energy transition risk. In addition, cash flow projections applied in individual assets include specific asset risks, including risk of transition. An increase in systematic energy transition risk could lead to a higher WACC and consequently to a higher discount rate to be applied in impairment testing. An increase of the discount rate applied for impairment testing of 1% under the assumption that all other factors (such as commodity prices, product margins and carbon prices) in the models used to calculate recoverability of carrying value remain unchanged would lead to a change in the carrying value of $1-3 billion (2023: $2-4 billion) in Integrated Gas and Upstream, and no significant impairment in other segments (2023: up to $1 billion in Chemicals and Products).
Global oil and gas demand considerations
A decrease in global demand and unchanged supply of oil and gas would probably lead to a decrease in price (see price sensitivity above). During 2024 Shell's production of oil and gas accounted for some 1.5% and 2% of total global production of oil and gas respectively. Changes in global oil and gas demand are therefore not expected to directly impact the ability to sell volumes of oil and gas produced by Shell at market prices.
Deferred tax assets
In general, it is expected that sufficient deferred tax liabilities and forecasted taxable profits within the planning period of 10 years are available for recovery of the deferred tax assets recognised at December 31, 2024. Integrated Gas and Upstream deferred tax assets recognised are expected to be recovered within the period of production of each asset. For deferred tax assets of $625 million as at December 31, 2024 (2023: $241 million) this period extends beyond 10 years. Deferred tax assets in Chemicals and Products and in Marketing expected to be recovered in more than 10 years (between 11 and 20 years) are $315 million as at December 31, 2024 (2023: $455 million) for which the forecasted taxable profits to determine recoverability have been risked. (See Note 23).
Decommissioning and other provisions
The energy transition may result in decommissioning and restoration occurring earlier than expected. The risk on the timing of decommissioning and restoration activities for Integrated Gas and Upstream fields is limited, supported by production plans in the foreseeable future (see "Estimated useful life" above). Acceleration of decommissioning and restoration activities has also been reflected in the assessment of the appropriate discount rate. On an undiscounted basis the provision for decommissioning and restoration as at December 31, 2024 was $32 billion (2023: $33 billion), recognised on a discounted basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheet as at December 31, 2024 at $18 billion (2023: $19 billion). Sensitivity to changes in the discount rate is provided in Note 25.
Historically, in Chemicals and Products, it was industry practice not to recognise decommissioning and restoration provisions associated with manufacturing facilities. This was on the basis that these assets were considered to have indefinite lives, so it was considered remote that an outflow of economic benefits would be required. In 2020, Shell considered the changed macroeconomic fundamentals, together with Shell's plans to rationalise the Group's manufacturing portfolio. Shell also reconsidered whether it remained appropriate not to recognise decommissioning and restoration provisions for manufacturing facilities. Since 2020, decommissioning and restoration provisions are recognised for certain shorter-lived manufacturing facilities (see Notes 25 and 32). The energy and chemicals parks are considered longer-lived facilities that are expected to be resilient in the energy transition, and decommissioning would generally be more than 50 years away.
Onerous contracts
Closure or early termination of activities may lead to supply contracts becoming onerous. Onerous contract provisions (see Note 25) have been recognised as at December 31, 2024, to reflect changes in expected future utilisation of certain assets. These include contracts in relation to unused terminals and refineries. The total carrying value of the provision for onerous contracts as at December 31, 2024 was $1.1 billion (2023: $1.1 billion) principally related to contracts in relation to unused terminals and refineries.
Dividend resilience
External stakeholders have requested disclosures on how climate change affects dividend-paying capacity. If a further impairment had been recognised in 2024 using any of the climate change scenarios described above, this would not have impacted the ability to pay dividends in this financial year because of strong cash flow generation and financial reserves. Had Shell applied the IEA NZE50 scenario (see above), and if this had led to a decrease in the recoverable amount of Integrated Gas and Upstream assets of $26-34 billion and recognition of an equivalent impairment, this would not have impacted the distributable reserves available to Shell from which to pay dividends in 2024. This is on the basis that such impairment would have resulted in part-realisation of the merger reserve recognised by the Company of $234 billion
as at December 31, 2024.
A forward-looking statement regarding future dividend-paying capacity cannot be provided because of unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results, performance or events to differ materially from those expressed or implied in these statements.

4. Climate change and energy transition continued
Physical risks
The potential impact of physical risks comes from both acute and chronic climate hazards. Acute hazards, such as flooding and droughts, wildfires and more severe tropical storms, and chronic hazards, such as rising temperatures and rising sea levels, could impact some of Shell's facilities, operations and supply chains. The frequency of these hazards and impacts is expected to increase in certain locations. Extreme weather events, whether or not related to climate change, could have a negative impact on Shell's earnings, cash flows and financial condition. Mitigation of physical risks, whether or not related to climate change, is considered and embedded in the design and construction of Shell's projects, and/or operation of its assets to minimise the risk of adverse incidents to Shell's employees and contractors, the communities where Shell operates, and Shell's equipment.
In 2023, Shell carried out a detailed review to assess the impact of a range of changing climatic conditions, including projected changes in temperature, precipitation, wind and sea levels, across segments and geographies for Shell's significant assets. Shell used IPCC climate modelling data covering three exploratory climate scenarios (RCP2.6, RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) across the time-horizons 2025, 2030 and 2050. These scenarios were selected to ensure a broad range of risks and uncertainties were assessed. There have been no changes to the climate modelling data that would require a full update of the 2023 assessment. Shell has confirmed there are no changes to the risk profile of Shell's significant assets and accounted for portfolio changes. In the short to medium term, the risks identified were found to be related to factors that Shell is already aware of (whether or not related to climate change) and that the assets are actively managing to mitigate, e.g. hurricane impacts in the US Gulf Coast, rising air temperatures in the Middle East and water scarcity in Europe and Asia. As an example, in recent years the Rhine river in Europe has seen historic lows during the summer months leading to challenges in the use of barges for transportation of Shell's products. Dredging of harbours and investment in shallower-draft barges have helped to mitigate the risk. In the long term, the results of the exercise indicated that while have evaluated against current climate modelling projections and Shell's current asset portfolio, by 2050 the frequency and severity of the climate hazards may differ from current projections. The level of predictability is such that the need for investment in climate adaptation measures at the assets is not immediate and the results mean Shell is in a position to monitor the assets and determine whether there is any need for adaptation action, e.g. the impact of potential water scarcity on various assets. Shell's testing to assess the potential impact of climate-related changes on its significant assets covers over 70% of the carrying value of Shell's physical assets as at December 31, 2023. Over 12% (based on the carrying value) of physical assets tested are considered to be exposed to climate-related physical risks in the short to medium term which the assets are already actively managing to mitigate. In addition, Shell reviewed significant acquisitions made in 2023 and 2024, none of which were found to have significant climate-related physical risks in the short to medium term. Shell's plan reflects the impact of mitigating actions in the short to medium term for the assets assessed. Shell will continue to monitor and assess the future exposure of Shell's assets in the longer term to changing climatic conditions to establish the need for any further adaptation actions and related metrics.
The impact of physical climate change on Shell's operations is unlikely to be limited to the boundaries of Shell's assets. For example, the downstream transportation and distribution of Shell's products from its own operations could potentially be exposed to climate-related hazards that ultimately impact Shell's operations. The overall impact, including how supply chains, resource availability and markets may be affected, also needs to be considered for a holistic assessment of this risk. Shell's assets manage this risk as part of broad risk and threat management processes as required by Shell's Environment and Asset Management (SEAM) standards, part of the wider Shell Performance Framework.

5. Emission schemes and related environmental programmes
Emission trading and related schemes
In general, emission trading schemes (ETS) are mandated governmental schemes to control emission levels and enhance clean energy transition, allowing for the trading of emission certificates. In most ETS, governments set an emission cap for one or more sectors. Generally, entities in scope of the scheme are allowed to buy emission certificates to cover shortages or sell surplus emission certificates. In certain countries, emissions are priced through a carbon tax. For Shell, the most significant carbon pricing mechanisms are established in Europe, Canada and Singapore.
Biofuel programmes
Biofuel programmes are mandated governmental schemes that set binding national targets on the share of renewables in fuel consumption or measures on reducing GHG emissions by fuel suppliers. Biofuels are blended with existing fuels, such as gasoline and diesel, to reduce net emissions. The share of biofuels in the total sales mix of fuel is used to comply with regulatory requirements. This can be achieved by the blending of biofuels in refineries and/or distribution depots (self-blending), through import of biofuels (for jurisdictions that grant biofuels certificates at the point of import) or by the purchasing of certificates from third parties (for jurisdictions that have a tradable biofuel certificates mechanism). Biofuel programmes also include regulatory requirements to pay a levy for the combustion of fossil fuels, based on CO₂ emitted – mainly related to the German Fuel Emissions Trading Act (BEHG) which has applied since January 1, 2021.
Renewable power programmes
Renewable power programmes create a financial incentive to consume power that is sourced from renewable origins or require that a minimum percentage of power sold meets the green definition of the relevant standard. These regulations are typically accompanied by schemes supporting investments in the renewable technology. Renewable power programmes generally use certificates to monitor compliance, where renewable power certificates are granted for each MWh of energy generated that meets the predefined renewable criteria. Shell's compliance obligation under renewable power programmes comes primarily from energy supply and results from regulations applying in Europe, North America and Australia.

7. Segment information
General information
Shell is an international energy company engaged in the principal aspects of the energy and petrochemical industries and reports its business through segments: Integrated Gas, Upstream, Marketing, Chemicals and Products, Renewables and Energy Solutions, and Corporate.
With effect from January 1, 2024, Wholesale Commercial Fuels forms part of Mobility with inclusion in the Marketing segment (previously Chemicals and Products segment). The change in segmentation reflects the increasing alignment between the economic characteristics of wholesale commercial fuels and other Mobility businesses, and is consistent with changes in the information provided to the Chief Executive Officer, who serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker. Prior period comparatives have been revised to conform with current year presentation with an offsetting impact between the Marketing and the Chemicals and Products segments. Also, from January 1, 2024, Shell's longer-term innovation portfolio is managed centrally and hence reported as part of the Corporate segment (previously all other segments). Prior period comparatives have been revised to conform with current year presentation with an offsetting impact on all the other segments.
The Integrated Gas segment includes liquefied natural gas (LNG), conversion of natural gas into gas-to-liquids (GTL) fuels and other products. It includes natural gas and liquids exploration and extraction, and the operation of the upstream and midstream infrastructure necessary to deliver these to market. The segment also includes the marketing, trading and optimisation of LNG.
The Upstream segment includes exploration and extraction of crude oil, natural gas and natural gas liquids. It also markets and transports oil and gas, and operates the infrastructure necessary to deliver them to the market.
The Marketing segment comprises the Mobility, Lubricants, and Sectors & Decarbonisation businesses. The Mobility business operates Shell's retail network, including electric vehicle charging services and the wholesale commercial fuels business which provides fuels for transport, industry and heating. The Lubricants business produces, markets and sells lubricants for road transport and machinery used in manufacturing, mining, power generation, agriculture and construction. The Sectors & Decarbonisation business sells fuels, speciality products and services, including
low-carbon energy solutions, to a broad range of commercial customers, including the aviation, marine and agricultural sectors.
The Chemicals and Products segment includes chemical manufacturing plants, with their own marketing network, and refineries, which turn crude oil and other feedstocks into a range of oil products which are moved and marketed around the world for domestic, industrial and transport use. The segment also includes the pipeline business, trading and optimisation of crude oil, oil products and petrochemicals, and oil sands activities (the extraction of bitumen from mined oil sands and its conversion into synthetic crude oil).

7. Segment information continued
The Renewables and Energy Solutions segment includes activities such as renewable power generation, the marketing and trading and optimisation of power and pipeline gas, as well as carbon credits and digitally enabled customer solutions. The segment also includes production and marketing of hydrogen, development of commercial carbon capture and storage hubs, investment in nature-based projects that avoid or reduce carbon emissions, and Shell Ventures, which invests in companies that work to accelerate the energy and mobility transformation.
The Corporate segment covers the non-operating activities supporting Shell. The segment comprises Shell's holdings and treasury organisation, its self-insurance activities, headquarters and central functions, and centrally managed longer-term innovation portfolio. All finance expense and income and related taxes are included in Corporate segment earnings rather than in the earnings of business segments.
Basis of segmental reporting
Sales between segments are based on prices generally equivalent to commercially available prices. Third-party revenue and non-current assets information by geographical area are based on the country of operation of the Group subsidiaries that report this information. Separate disclosure is provided for the UK as this is the Company's country of domicile.
Segment earnings are presented on a current cost of supplies basis (CCS earnings), which was the earnings measure used by the Chief Executive Officer for the purposes of making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. On this basis, the purchase price of volumes sold during the period is based on the current cost of supplies during the same period after making allowance for the tax effect. CCS earnings therefore exclude the effect of changes in the oil price on inventory carrying amounts.
Finance expense and income related to core financing activities, as well as related taxes, are included in the Corporate segment earnings rather than in the earnings of the business segments.
Information by segment on a current cost of supplies basis is as follows:

Discount rate and other assumptions
The discount rates applied in determining value in use reflect a current market assessment of the time value of money, adjusted for risks not included in forecast cash flows. The discount rate applied is based on a nominal post-tax weighted average cost of capital (WACC), derived from the following key assumptions:
WACC assumptions
Risk-free rate
Derived from a range of benchmark US Treasury yields of varying maturities, to reflect the range of useful economic lives of Shell's assets and to appropriately adjust, where relevant, for pricing anomalies and short-term volatility of specific tenors.
Cost of debt [A]
Derived from observable risk premiums on corporate debt issued by a group of comparable energy companies, adjusted for a blended statutory tax rate.
Cost of equity [A]
Calculated per the capital asset pricing model. Equity risk premiums are derived from a range of published sources, adjusted to reflect a beta derived from a peer group of comparable energy companies, and subsequently calibrated to ensure that total cost of equity is consistent with market practice.
[A]The peer group of comparable energy companies is tailored to reflect relevant integrated power companies (for power activities in the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment) and integrated oil and gas companies (for the rate applied to all other assets). The proportion of debt and equity in the WACC calculation reflects a target gearing ratio, tailored for power activities and oil and gas activities as appropriate.
This rate is reassessed throughout the reporting period, with adjustments made when changes in assumptions applied would lead to a change in an investor's expected rate of return on a portfolio of similar assets. This assessment considers a range of factors, including macroeconomic forecasts, the historical volatility of key assumptions and the level of risking reflected in cash flow forecasts, including the extent to which systemic risks have been reflected in Shell's Operating Plan, which forms the basis of forecast cash flows in determining value in use.
Cash flow projections used in the determination of value in use were made using management's forecasts of commodity prices, market supply and demand, forecast expenditures, potential costs associated with operational GHG emissions, product margins including forecast refining margins, chemical margins and expected production volumes (see Note 2). The level of risking reflected in these assumptions is a consideration in management's assessment of the discount rate to be applied in order to avoid duplication of systemic and asset-specific risking in calculating value in use, and to ensure the discount rate applied is commensurate with risks included in forecast cash flows.
The discount rate applied was a nominal post-tax WACC of 6% (2023: 6%) for the power activities in the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment and a nominal post-tax WACC of 7.5% (2023: 7.5%) for all other businesses. Management assessed the appropriateness of these discount rates as a result of rising bond yields towards the end of 2024. Management concluded that the discount rates remain appropriate and materially commensurate with other significant cash flow assumptions.

13. Impairment of property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets continued
Recoverable value was predominantly assessed by reference to value in use in segments other than the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment. The pre-tax discount rates applied for value in use impairment testing vary according to the characteristics of the asset, including its useful life and cash flow profiles. The weighted average pre-tax discount rate applied in the recognition of impairment charges during the year was 9.0% for segments other than the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment.
The near-term commodity price assumptions applied in impairment testing were as follows:
Commodity price assumptions [A]
20242025202620272028
Brent crude oil ($/b)70707074
Henry Hub natural gas ($/MMBtu)3.304.004.004.24
20232024202520262027
Brent crude oil ($/b)70707074
Henry Hub natural gas ($/MMBtu)4.004.004.004.00
[A]Money of the day.
For periods after 2028, the real-term price assumptions applied were: $70 per barrel (/b) (2023: $70/b) for Brent crude oil, and a linear increase from $4.05 per million British thermal units (/MMBtu) to $5.00/MMBtu in 2048 (2023: $4.00/MMBtu) for Henry Hub natural gas.
Oil and gas price assumptions applied for impairment testing are reviewed and, where necessary, adjusted on a periodic basis. Reviews include comparison with available market data and forecasts that reflect developments in demand such as global economic growth, technology efficiency, policy measures and, in supply, consideration of investment and resource potential, cost of development of new supply, and behaviour of major resource holders.
For certain assets in the Chemicals and Products and Renewables and Energy Solutions segments, the recoverable value was determined by reference to fair value less costs of disposal. In determining fair value, adjustments are made to forecast cash flows to reflect assumptions used by market participants. These adjustments predominantly relate to the discount rate applied and commodity price assumptions. For certain assets in the Renewables and Energy Solutions segment, the valuation methodology incorporates other adjustments to reflect comparable transactions.
The total carrying value of property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets at December 31, 2024, for which recoverable value was tested in 2024 by reference to fair value less costs of disposal was $0.9 billion related to assets in Renewables and Energy Solutions and $1 billion in Marketing. The majority of the assets for which the recoverable value was determined by reference to fair value less costs of disposal are related to assets classified as held for sale (see Note 19).
The total carrying value of property, plant and equipment, goodwill and other intangible assets at December 31, 2023, for which recoverable value was tested in 2023 by reference to fair value less costs of disposal was $2.6 billion related to assets in Renewables and Energy Solutions and $2.5 billion in Chemicals and Products. The weighted average post-tax discount rate applied to impairments recognised during 2023 is 12% for Renewables and Energy Solutions and 10% for Chemicals and Products.
Goodwill
Goodwill impairments of $510 million in 2024 are mainly recognised in Renewables and Energy Solutions, triggered by a portfolio choice regarding renewable generation assets in North America.
Goodwill impairments of $635 million in 2023 were mainly recognised in Renewables and Energy Solutions primarily related to an asset in North America, triggered by annual goodwill impairment testing reflecting factors including the impact of the deteriorated macro environment.
Property, plant and equipment
Exploration and production
Impairment losses recognised in Exploration and production in 2024 of $783 million related to various assets in Integrated Gas ($543 million) and Upstream ($240 million). Impairments recognised in Integrated Gas mainly related to an asset located in Australia, triggered by factors including revised price, production and cost estimates. Impairment losses recognised in Upstream principally relate to projects in North America and Europe, triggered by portfolio choices.
Impairment losses recognised in Exploration and production in 2023 of $4,820 million related to various assets in Integrated Gas ($3,472 million) and Upstream ($1,348 million). Impairments recognised in Integrated Gas mainly related to an asset located in North America, triggered by a change in the discount rate applied, and a project in Australia, triggered by factors including revised production estimates and regulatory changes. Impairment losses recognised in Upstream principally relate to projects in North America, Nigeria and the UK triggered by factors including revised reserves estimates and portfolio choices.
Manufacturing, supply and distribution
Impairment losses recognised in Manufacturing, supply and distribution in 2024 of $1,278 million mainly related to an energy and chemicals park located in Singapore, due to remeasurement of the fair value less costs of disposal triggered by a sales agreement reached, and to various smaller assets in Chemicals and Products.

The impairment in Marketing principally relates to a biofuels facility located in the Netherlands, triggered by a temporary pause of on-site construction work.

Impairment reversals in 2024 of $333 million are mainly triggered by the reassessment of value in use in Renewables and Energy Solutions ($134 million) and divestments in Chemicals and Products ($114 million).
Impairment reversals in 2023 of $627 million were mainly triggered by the reassessment of fair value less costs of disposal in Integrated Gas
($325 million) and revised reserves estimates in Upstream ($203 million).
Impairment losses in 2022 mainly related to the withdrawal from Russia ($854 million), the classification of an Upstream asset as held for sale ($320 million) and an impairment of capital expenditure additions in fully impaired sites in Chemicals and Products ($257 million).
The recognition of impairment reversals in 2022 was mainly triggered by the revision of Shell's mid- and long-term commodity price assumptions reflecting the energy market demand and supply fundamentals. They are related to: i) Integrated Gas for $3,449 million, mainly relating to the Queensland Curtis LNG asset; and ii) Upstream for $2,504 million, mainly related to two offshore projects in Brazil and an asset in the Gulf of America.
Sensitivities
The main sensitivities in relation to value in use impairment assessment are the commodity price assumptions in Integrated Gas and Upstream, refining and chemical margins in Chemicals and Products, and discount rates in all segments.
Commodity price assumptions
A change of -10% or +10% in the commodity price assumptions over the entire cash flow projection period would ceteris paribus result in $5-9 billion in impairments or $2-5 billion in impairment reversal, respectively, in Integrated Gas and Upstream.
Refining margins
Refining margins applied for impairment testing by reference to value in use are at an average of $10/bbl. A change of -$1/bbl or +$1/bbl
in long-term refining margins over the entire cash flow projection period would ceteris paribus result in no impairments or up to $0.5 billion in impairment reversal, respectively, in Chemicals and Products.
Chemical margins
Chemical margins applied for impairment testing by reference to value in use are at an average of $197.5/tonne. A change of -$30/tonne or +$30/tonne in long-term chemical margins over the entire cash flow projection period would ceteris paribus result in up to $0.5 billion in impairments or no impairment reversal, respectively, in Chemicals and Products.
Discount rates
A change of +1% in the discount rate would ceteris paribus result in $1-3 billion in impairments in Integrated Gas and Upstream, and would have no significant impact in other segments.
Where applicable, the above sensitivities include impairment charges that would arise in respect of associates and joint ventures. Where carrying values have been supported by reference to fair value less costs of disposal, recoverable amounts are less sensitive to Shell's planning assumptions. This is on the basis that key assumptions (including discount rates and commodity prices) have been adjusted to reflect those used by market participants.
In calculating recoverable value, key assumptions are not determined in isolation, to ensure relevant interdependencies are appropriately reflected. In particular, management considers the relationship between discount rates, forecast commodity prices and cash flow risking to ensure impairment testing assumptions result in an implicit expected return which is balanced and appropriate for the asset under review. Each of the sensitivities described above has been tested under a ceteris paribus assumption where all other factors remain unchanged, and as such does not reflect the potential offsetting effects of corresponding changes in other assumptions.

Provisions for impairments deducted from trade and other receivables amounted to $1,253 million at December 31, 2024 (2023: $1,251 million).
Allowance for expected credit losses -- trade receivables
Shell uses a provision matrix to calculate expected credit losses (ECLs) for trade receivables. The provision matrix is initially based on Shell's historical observed default rates. Shell calculates the ECL to adjust the historical credit loss experienced with forward-looking information.
The ECL at December 31, 2024, was $113 million (2023: $185 million), which represents 0.36-0.51% (2023: 0.51-0.54%) of all trade receivables.
A loss allowance provision of $414 million (2023: $415 million) was established in addition to all other impairments to trade receivables
as at December 31, 2024, that are outside of the provision matrix calculations.
Lease receivables

21. Debt continued
During 2024, Shell had access to international debt capital markets via two commercial paper (CP) programmes, a US universal shelf (US shelf) registration and a Euro medium-term note (EMTN) programme. Issuances under the CP programmes are supported by a committed credit facility and cash.
Under the CP programmes, Shell can issue debt of up to $10,000 million with maximum maturities ranging between 183 days and 364 days depending on the form of the notes issued; and $10,000 million with maturities not exceeding 397 days.
The US shelf registration provides Shell with the flexibility to issue debt securities, ordinary shares, preferred shares and warrants. The registration is updated once every three years and was last updated in December 2023. During 2024, no debt was issued under this registration (2023: no debt issued).
The EMTN programme lapsed in November 2024 and will be renewed during 2025. During 2024, no debt was issued under this programme
(2023: no debt issued).
On December 13, 2019, Shell refinanced its revolving credit facility (RCF), which is linked to the Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR),
at pre-agreed margins. Shell elected not to extend the short-dated tranche of $1,920 million in 2024. The remaining $8,000 million expires in 2026 (2023: $8,000 million expiring in 2026). The terms and availability are not conditional on Shell's financial ratios nor its credit ratings. The interest and fees related to these facilities are linked to Shell's progress towards reaching its short-term Net Carbon Intensity target.
The following tables compare contractual cash flows for debt, excluding lease liabilities at December 31, with the carrying amount in the Consolidated Balance Sheet. Contractual amounts reflect the effects of changes in foreign exchange rates; differences from carrying amounts reflect the effects of discounting, premiums and, where fair value hedge accounting is applied, fair value adjustments. Interest is estimated assuming that interest rates applicable to variable-rate debt remain constant and there is no change in aggregate principal amounts of debt other than repayment at scheduled maturity, as reflected in the table.

Interest rate swaps have been entered into against certain fixed rate debt affecting the effective interest rate on these balances (see Note 26).
The fair value of debt excluding lease liabilities at December 31, 2024, was $44,119 million (2023: $50,866 million), mainly determined from
the prices quoted for those securities. The difference between the fair value of debt and the carrying amount is predominantly related to the difference between the fixed rate and the current market rate.

[A]Future cash outflows in respect of leases may differ from lease liabilities recognised due to future decisions that may be taken by Shell in respect of the use of leased assets. These decisions may result in variable lease payments being made. In addition, Shell may reconsider whether it will exercise extension options or termination options, which are not reflected in the lease liabilities. There is no exposure to these potential additional payments in excess of the recognised lease liabilities until these decisions have been taken by Shell.

Adjustments in respect of prior periods relate to events in the current period and reflect the effects of changes in rules, facts or other factors compared with those used in establishing the current tax position or deferred tax balance in prior periods.
In 2022, adjustments in respect of changes in tax rates and legislation of $524 million principally relate to the introduction of the UK Energy Profits Levy Act 2022 (EPL).

On June 20, 2023, the UK substantively enacted Pillar Two Model Rules, effective as from January 1, 2024. The Pillar Two rules are designed to ensure large multinational enterprises (meeting certain conditions) pay a minimum level of tax on the income arising in each jurisdiction where they operate. Shell has applied the exception, as set out in the amendments to IAS 12 Income Taxes, to recognising and disclosing information about deferred tax assets and liabilities related to Pillar Two income taxes.

Other movements in deferred tax assets and liabilities are mainly related to assets classified as held for sale and liabilities directly associated with assets classified as held for sale (see note 19).
The deferred tax category Other primarily includes deferred tax positions in respect of leases, financial assets and liabilities, inventories, intangible assets other than goodwill and investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates.
The deferred tax category property, plant and equipment also includes deferred tax positions in respect of investments in partnerships in the USA which are considered pass-through entities by its parent for tax purposes.
Deferred tax assets of $6,857 million (2023: $6,454 million) are recognised only to the extent it is considered probable that those assets will be recoverable. This involves an assessment of when those assets are likely to be recovered, and a judgement as to whether or not there will be sufficient taxable profits available to offset the assets. It is considered probable based on business forecasts that such taxable profits will be available. For Marketing, as well as Chemicals and Products, additional judgement is required; in some jurisdictions the assessment of forecasted taxable profits resulting in deferred tax asset recognition of $315 million (2023: $455 million) extends for an additional 10 years beyond Shell's regular 10-year planning horizon. In those situations, additional risking has been applied to the forecast of taxable profits. For Integrated Gas and Upstream, deferred tax assets recognised are expected to be recovered within the period of production of each asset. For deferred tax assets of $625 million (2023: $241 million) as at December 31, 2024, this period extends beyond 10 years.
The amount of deferred tax assets which are dependent on future taxable profits not arising from the reversal of existing deferred tax liabilities, and which relate to tax jurisdictions where Shell has suffered a loss in the current or preceding year, was $4,022 million at December 31, 2024 (2023: $2,027 million). The increase compared with 2023 is primarily attributable to a higher number of entities which have generated losses in 2024.

Unrecognised taxable temporary differences associated with undistributed retained earnings of investments in subsidiaries, joint ventures and associates amounted to $4,504 million at December 31, 2024 (2023: $5,311 million). These retained earnings are subject to withholding tax upon distribution.
Excluding unrecognised tax losses for PRRT, the unrecognised deductible temporary differences, unused tax losses and credits carried forward amounted to $27,568 million at December 31, 2024 (2023: $28,460 million), and included amounts of $25,875 million (2023: $25,489 million) that are subject to time limits for utilisation of five years or later, or are not time limited.

24. Retirement benefits
Retirement benefits are provided in most of the countries where Shell has operational activities. Shell offers these benefits through funded and unfunded defined benefit plans and defined contribution plans. The most significant pension plans are in the Netherlands, UK and USA.
Other post-employment benefits (OPEB) comprising retirement health care and life insurance are also provided in certain countries. The most significant OPEB plan is in the USA.

Characteristics of significant defined benefit and defined contribution plans and regulatory framework
The Netherlands
The principal defined benefit pension plan in the Netherlands is a funded career-averaged pension arrangement with retired employees drawing benefits as an annuity, with a surplus of $4,753 million reported as at December 31, 2024, (2023: $3,520 million surplus). While the plan was closed to employees hired or rehired after July 1, 2013, it currently remains open for ongoing accrual for existing active members. Active members account for 21% (2023: 23%) of the total defined benefit liability in the Netherlands. From July 1, 2013 onwards, new employees in the Netherlands are entitled to membership of a defined contribution pension plan.
In line with Dutch regulations, the defined benefit pension plan has a joint Trustee Board with trustee representatives nominated by the Company, the Central Staff Council and retired members. The defined benefit pension plan also has an Accountability Council comprising members nominated by the Company, the Central Staff Council and retired members. Furthermore, there is a Supervisory Committee, which includes external experts from the pension industry, to oversee management, compliance and operations of the fund. The defined contribution pension plan has a one-tier Trustee Board with an independent chair, trustee representatives nominated by the Company and the Central Staff Council, as well as two executive board members. The defined contribution fund also has an Accountability Council comprised of members nominated by the Company and the Central Staff Council. Both Trustee Boards are responsible for administering the plans in line with the Dutch "Pensioenwet" (PW), including corporate governance, investment strategy for the pension plans' assets and paying member benefits,
and are required to act in the best interests of the members.
Dutch pension reform
As per July 1, 2023, new pension legislation ("Wet Toekomst Pensioenen" (WTP)) came into effect in the Netherlands, with implementation required prior to January 2028. This legislation aims to create a more resilient and adaptable pensions system that can better accommodate demographic changes and economic fluctuations while providing adequate retirement income. The legislation requires all future pension accruals to be in a defined contribution framework, with the intention that existing benefits accrued in pension funds are also converted into a defined contribution framework. The new regulatory framework will impact Shell's existing defined benefit pension plan, net pension scheme and defined contribution pension plan in the Netherlands.
In response to the new pension legislation the Company, with the consent of the Central Staff Council in the Netherlands, decided on June 25, 2024, that all future pension accruals from January 1, 2027, will be under a defined contribution framework. The new pension scheme(s) and associated transition measures were laid down in separate transition plans. In July 2024, these were formally submitted to the Trustee Boards of the pension funds for their acceptance. It is the intention that the gross defined benefit scheme of Shell will be transferred into a new defined contribution plan from January 1, 2027, and that the defined contribution plan of Shell will be transformed on January 1, 2026.
The transition plan for the defined benefit plan states that the transfer into a new defined contribution plan is subject to the local funding level of the plan remaining above an agreed level (125%) during the predetermined transition period. If the Trustee Board of the defined benefit plan formally accepts the transition plan (expected in 2025), Shell will derecognise the pension surplus, based on asset ceiling principles, resulting in a loss in other comprehensive income and an additional "minimum funding requirement" for an expected final cash contribution. Subsequently, at the date of transition (December 31, 2026), a charge to the Consolidated Statement of Income is expected in respect of the surplus previously derecognised. The likelihood of acceptance of the plan, and the extent to which the funding level will meet the agreed 125% threshold, is subject to uncertainty. If the funding level of the defined benefit plan falls below 125% during the transition period, the transition plan and anticipated cash contributions may need to be reassessed.
The amounts to be recognised which will be determined at each respective date are subject to uncertainty and market risks and may have a material impact on Shell's financial condition, results of operations and cash flows.
UK
The four largest defined benefit pension plans for employees in the UK are funded final salary pension arrangements with retired employees mainly drawing benefits as an annuity with the option to take a portion as a lump sum. The three plans are separate and independent plans and cannot be netted against each other. In total, the plans reported a surplus of $2,603 million as at December 31, 2024 (2023: surplus of $3,246 million), which is after netting of unfunded plans of $319 million (2023: $340 million) which are reported as non-current liabilities on the balance sheet. All three plans were closed to new employees hired or rehired. However, two plans currently remain open for ongoing accrual for existing active members. Active members account for 14% (2023: 16%) of the total defined benefit liability in the UK. From March 1, 2013, onwards new employees in the UK are entitled to membership of a defined contribution pension plan.
In line with UK regulations, the principal defined benefit pension plan is governed by a corporate trustee whose board comprises four trustee directors nominated by the Company, including the chair and four member-nominated trustee directors. The defined contribution pension plan is governed by a corporate trustee whose board comprises of three company-nominated directors, including the chair and two member-nominated trustee directors. The trustees are responsible for administering the plans in line with the Trust Deed and Regulations, including setting the investment strategy for the pension plans' assets and paying member benefits, and are required to act in the best interests of the members of the pension plans.
For the funded defined benefit pension plan for former BG employees, the BG Pension Scheme (BGPS), the Board of Trustees of the BG Pension Scheme decided to enter into a qualifying insurance contract for the full scheme (buy in) with a third-party insurer which was executed on September 11, 2024. This policy replaces the previous investments held to support the BGPS's benefits, and as a consequence, the longevity and investment risks have been transferred in full to the insurer. The liabilities relating to the scheme remain on the balance sheet but are now fully insured. The scheme has defined benefit liabilities of $1,270 million and a surplus of $105 million reported at December 31, 2024.

USA
The principal defined benefit pension plan in the USA is a funded final average pay pension plan with a surplus of $638 million reported as at December 31, 2024 (2023: $140 million surplus). After retirement, all retirees can choose to draw their benefits as an annuity, whereas others also have the choice to take their benefit in a lump sum. There is also an unfunded defined benefit pension plan with a deficit of $809 million (2023: $884 million deficit). The benefits under this plan are taken primarily in a lump sum. In addition, the Company provides a defined contribution benefit plan. The funded defined benefit, unfunded defined benefit, and Shell's defined contribution pension plans are subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA).
In line with Shell Group's strategic objectives and risk management, on January 30, 2024, the principal defined benefit pension plan in the USA, Shell Pension Plan, entered into a contract with a third-party insurance company to settle $5,052 million of pension liabilities. The settlement price consisted of $4,920 million of pension assets. As a result of this transaction, all legal and constructive obligations for a tranche of benefits provided by the Shell Pension Plan have been eliminated. A gain on settlement of $101 million (after associated adjustment for deferred tax) has been recognised in Shell's Consolidated Statement of Income. As a consequence, as of December 31, 2024, the total active members increased to 30% (2023: 23%) of the total defined benefit liability in the USA.
Both the funded defined benefit pension plan and the defined contribution pension plan are governed by trustees who are appointed by the Plan Sponsor and are named fiduciaries with respect to the plans. The trustees are generally responsible for investment-related matters, appointing the Plan Administrator, maintaining general oversight and deciding appeals of participants.
USA OPEB
The Company also sponsors other post-retirement employee benefits (OPEB), mainly in the USA. The OPEB plans in the USA provide medical, dental and vision benefits, as well as life insurance benefits to eligible retired employees. The plans are unfunded, and the Company and retirees share the costs of the premiums with a deficit of $2,337 million reported as at December 31, 2024 (2023: $2,267 million deficit). The plan that provides post-retirement medical benefits in the USA is closed to employees hired or rehired on or after January 1, 2017. Certain life insurance benefits are paid by the Company.
Significant funding requirements:
Additional contributions to the Dutch defined benefit pension plan would be required if the 12-month rolling average local funding percentage falls below 105% for six months or more. At the most recent 2024 funding valuation, the local funding percentage was above this level.
There are no set minimum statutory funding requirements for the UK plans. A professional qualified independent actuary, appointed by the trustee board, undertakes a local funding valuation typically every three years. The most recent completed funding valuation for the principal defined benefit plan was undertaken as at December 31, 2023, and revealed a funding ratio of 108% and therefore no sponsor contributions (except for salary sacrifice contributions) were payable under the schedule of contributions.
Under the Pension Protection Act, US pension plans are subject to minimum required contribution levels based on the funding position.
No contributions are required based on the most recent funding valuation.
Associated risks to which retirement benefits are exposed
There are inherent risks associated with defined benefit pension and OPEB plans. These risks are related to various assumptions made on valuation of the liabilities and the cash funding requirement of the underlying plans. Volatility in capital markets or government policies, and the resulting consequences for investment performance, interest and inflation rates, as well as changes in assumptions for mortality, retirement age or pensionable remuneration at retirement, could result in significant changes to the funding level of future liabilities. In case of a shortfall, there could be a requirement to make substantial cash contributions (depending on the applicable local regulations).
These inherent risks are managed by a pension forum, chaired by the Chief Financial Officer, which oversees Shell's pension strategy, policy and operations. The forum is supported by a risk committee in reviewing the results of the assurance process with respect to pension risk.
Investment strategies
Long-term investment strategies of plans are generally determined by the relevant pension plan trustees using a structured asset/liability modelling approach to define the asset mix that best meets the objectives of optimising returns within agreed risk levels, while maintaining adequate funding levels.
Principal and actuarial assumptions
The principal assumptions applied in determining the present value of defined benefit obligations and their bases were as follows:
rates of increase in pensionable remuneration, pensions in payment and health care costs: historical experience and management's
long-term expectation;
discount rates: prevailing long-term AA corporate bond yields, chosen to match the currency and duration of the relevant obligation; and
mortality rates: published standard mortality tables for the individual countries concerned adjusted for Shell experience where statistically significant.
The weighted averages for those assumptions and related sensitivity information as at December 31, 2024 are presented below. Sensitivity information indicates by how much the defined benefit obligations would increase or decrease if a given assumption were to increase or decrease with no change in other assumptions. The sensitivity analyses may not be representative of an actual change in the defined benefit obligation as it is unlikely that changes in assumptions would occur in isolation from one another. The weighted averages are at nominal terms and based on market expectations at December 31, 2024.

The amount and timing of settlement in respect of these provisions are uncertain and dependent on various factors that are not always within management's control. Reviews of estimated future decommissioning and restoration costs and the discount rate applied are carried out regularly. The discount rate applied at December 31, 2024, was 4.5% (2023: 4.5%).
In 2024, there was a decrease of $3,105 million in provisions due to disposals and liabilities classified as held for sale. Of this total $3,053 million relate to liabilities classified as held for sale (see Note 19).
An increase of 0.5% or a decrease of 0.5% in the discount rate could result in a decrease of $0.9 billion (2023: $0.9 billion) or an increase of $1.0 billion (2023: $1.0 billion) in decommissioning and restoration provisions, respectively. Where applicable, the associated increase in the carrying amount of the related asset would be tested for impairment.
Other provisions at December 31, 2024, include amounts recognised in respect of employee benefits.

Risks
In the normal course of business, financial instruments of various kinds are used for the purposes of managing exposure to interest rate, foreign exchange and commodity price movements.
Treasury standards are applicable to all subsidiaries and each subsidiary is required to adopt a treasury policy consistent with these standards. These policies cover: financing structure; interest rate and foreign exchange risk management; insurance; counterparty risk management; and use of derivative contracts. Wherever possible, treasury operations are carried out through specialist regional organisations without removing from each subsidiary the responsibility to formulate and implement appropriate treasury policies.
Apart from forward foreign exchange contracts to meet known commitments, the use of derivative contracts by most subsidiaries is not permitted by their treasury policy.
Other than in exceptional cases, the use of external derivative contracts is confined to specialist trading and central treasury organisations that have appropriate skills, experience, supervision, control and reporting systems.
Shell's operations expose it to market, credit and liquidity risk, as described below.
Market risk
Market risk is the possibility that changes in interest rates, foreign exchange rates or commodity prices will adversely affect the value of assets, liabilities or expected future cash flows.
Interest rate risk
Most debt is raised from central borrowing programmes. Shell's policy is to have debt principally denominated in dollars and to retain a balanced exposure to fixed and floating rates over time. Shell has issued a significant amount of fixed rate debt in recent years, taking advantage of historically low interest rates. As a result, the majority of the debt portfolio at December 31, 2024, is fixed.
The financing of most subsidiaries is structured on a floating-rate basis, and any further interest rate risk management is only applied under exceptional circumstances.
On the basis of the floating-rate net cash position at December 31, 2024, (both issued and hedged), and assuming other factors (principally foreign exchange rates and commodity prices) remained constant and that no further interest rate management action was taken, an increase in interest rates of 1% would have increased 2024 income before taxation by $268 million (2023: $226 million increase).
The carrying amounts and maturities of debt and borrowing facilities are presented in Note 21. Interest expense is presented in Note 10.
Foreign exchange risk
Many of the markets in which Shell operates are priced, directly or indirectly, in dollars. As a result, the functional currency of most Integrated Gas and Upstream entities and those with significant cross-border business is the dollar. For Chemicals and Products entities, the functional currency is typically the local currency. Consequently, Shell is exposed to varying levels of foreign exchange risk: when an entity enters into transactions that are not denominated in its functional currency; when foreign currency monetary assets and liabilities are translated at the balance sheet date; and as a result of holding net investments in operations that are not dollar-functional. Each entity is required to adopt treasury policies that are designed to measure and manage its foreign exchange exposures by reference to its functional currency.

ShellForm 20-F/A 2024

Financial Statements and Supplements | Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements continued
26. Financial instruments continued
Foreign exchange gains and losses arise in the normal course of business from the recognition of receivables and payables and other monetary items in currencies other than an entity's functional currency. Foreign exchange risk may also arise in connection with capital expenditure. For major projects, an assessment is made at the final investment decision stage of whether to hedge any resulting exposure.
Assuming other factors (principally interest rates and commodity prices) remained constant and that no further foreign exchange risk management actions were taken, a 10% appreciation against the dollar at December 31 of the main currencies to which Shell is exposed would have had the following effects:

The above sensitivity information was calculated by reference to carrying amounts of assets and liabilities at December 31 only. The effect on income before taxation arises in connection with monetary balances denominated in currencies other than an entity's functional currency; the effect on net assets arises principally from the translation of assets and liabilities of entities that are not dollar-functional.
Foreign exchange gains and losses included in income are presented in Note 9.
Commodity price risk
Certain subsidiaries have a mandate to trade crude oil, natural gas, LNG, refined products, chemical feedstocks, power and environmental certificates, and to use commodity derivative contracts (forwards, futures, swaps and options) as a means of managing price and timing risks arising from this trading activity. In effecting these transactions, the entities concerned operate within procedures and policies designed to ensure that risks are managed within authorised limits. A department that is independent from Shell's traders monitors market risk exposures daily.
Value-at-risk (VAR) techniques based on variance/covariance or Monte Carlo simulation models are used to make a statistical assessment of the market risk arising from possible future changes in market values for commodity positions held by these subsidiaries over a 1-day holding period and within a 95% confidence level. The calculation of potential changes in fair value takes into account positions, the history of price movements and the correlation of these price movements. Models are regularly reviewed against actual fair value movements to ensure integrity is maintained. The VAR average and year-end positions in respect of commodities traded in liquid markets, which are presented in the table below, are calculated on a diversified basis in order to reflect the effect of offsetting risk within combined portfolios.

North America gas and power15161310
Europe gas and power13133112
Australia gas and power3342
Environmental certificates5294
Furthermore, commodity derivative hedge contracts are used to partially mitigate price volatility on future LNG sales and purchases.
As contracts to buy and sell physical LNG are accounted for on an accrual basis (see Note 2) and commodity derivatives are accounted for on a fair-value basis, this creates an accounting mismatch over periods. The fair value accounting of commodity derivatives can result in gains or losses in the Consolidated Statement of Income. These derivative contracts are based on a mix of European and North American gas price indices, global crude price indices and Asian LNG price indices. In previous years, Shell has seen high volatility in these markets. On that basis, a sensitivity analysis has been performed for a 50% price increase or decrease of this basket of derivative contracts at year-end 2024, which would result in a pre-tax loss or gain of $0.6 billion in the Consolidated Statement of Income (2023: $1.5 billion pre-tax gain or loss), whereas the same sensitivity analysis applied to the average exposures for the period was a gain or loss of $0.3 billion (2023: $0.8 billion pre-tax).

Credit risk
Comprehensive policies are in place to ensure that credit risk is appropriately managed and remains within risk appetite. These policies include requirements for assessment of internal credit ratings, the assignment of credit limits based on counterparty creditworthiness, and monitoring of exposure against these credit limits. Credit information is regularly shared between business and finance functions, with dedicated teams in place to quickly identify and respond to cases of credit deterioration. Mitigation measures are defined and implemented for higher-risk business partners and customers, and include shortened payment terms, collateral, credit insurance, or other security posting and timely collections.
Surplus cash is invested in a range of short-dated, secure and liquid instruments including short-term bank deposits, money market funds, reverse repos and similar instruments. The portfolio of these investments is diversified to avoid concentrating risk in any one instrument, country or counterparty. Management monitors the investments regularly and adjusts the investment portfolio in light of new market information where necessary to ensure credit risk is effectively diversified.
In commodity trading, additional requirements are established to manage credit risk. Credit checks are performed by a department independent of traders, and are undertaken before contractual commitment. In addition, a defined portfolio credit risk appetite is in place to manage credit risk concentrations. It includes a set of thresholds and alerts set at different portfolio levels (e.g. country, industry sector, creditworthiness). Utilisation against these thresholds, including identification of credit risk concentrations with particular counterparties, is actively monitored, and actions are taken to ensure compliance where appropriate. There were no material concentrations of credit risk, with individual customers or geographically, at December 31, 2024.
Shell routinely enters into offsetting, master netting and similar arrangements with trading and other counterparties to manage credit risk. Where there is a legally enforceable right of offset under such arrangements and Shell has the intention to settle on a net basis or realise the asset and settle the liability simultaneously, the net asset or liability is recognised in the Consolidated Balance Sheet, otherwise assets and liabilities are presented gross. These amounts, as presented net and gross within trade and other receivables, trade and other payables and derivative financial instruments in the Consolidated Balance Sheet at December 31, were as follows:

The carrying amount of financial assets pledged as collateral for liabilities or contingent liabilities at December 31, 2024, presented within trade and other receivables, was $2,519 million (2023: $3,437 million). The carrying amount of collateral held at December 31, 2024, presented within trade and other payables, was $581 million (2023: $1,404 million). In addition, Shell has utilised guarantees and letters of credit as non-cash collateral to cover margining requirements of $1,359 million as at December 31, 2024 (2023: $1,506 million). Collateral mainly relates to initial margins held with commodity exchanges/brokers and over-the-counter counterparty variation margins. Some derivative contracts are fully cash collateralised, thereby eliminating both counterparty risk and the Group's own non-performance risk.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that suitable sources of funding for Shell's business activities may not be available. Management believes that it has access to sufficient cash and cash equivalents, debt funding sources (capital markets) and to undrawn committed borrowing facilities to meet foreseeable requirements. Information about borrowing facilities is presented in Note 21.
Derivative contracts and hedges
Derivative contracts such as forwards, futures, options and swaps are used principally to hedge or mitigate risks arising from interest rate changes, currency fluctuations and commodity price volatility. However, hedge accounting is not always applied, therefore, movements in the carrying amounts of derivative contracts that are recognised in income may not be matched in the same period by the recognition of the income effects of the related hedged items.
In the course of trading operations, certain contracts are entered into for delivery of commodities that are accounted for as derivatives. The resulting price exposures are managed by entering into related derivative contracts.
Derivative contracts classified below as "other contracts" include certain contracts for the sale or purchase of commodities and others containing embedded derivatives. These contracts are required to be recognised at fair value because of pricing or delivery conditions, even though they were entered into to meet operational requirements.
For certain commodity derivatives contracts, carrying amounts cannot be derived from quoted market prices or other observable inputs, in which case fair value is estimated using valuation techniques, such as Black-Scholes; option spread models; and extrapolation, using quoted spreads with assumptions developed internally based on observable market activity.

Net gains before tax on derivative contracts, excluding those designed as hedges, were $1,314 million in 2024 (2023: $5,189 million gains; 2022: $1,331 million gains).
Certain contracts, mainly to hedge price risk relating to forecast commodity transactions, were designated in cash flow hedging relationships and are presented after the offset of related margin balances with exchanges. Contracts to hedge foreign exchange risks were also designated in cash flow hedging relationships and the net carrying amount of these contracts at December 31, 2024, was a liability of $579 million (2023: $373 million liability). See Note 29 for the accumulated balance recognised within other comprehensive income.
Certain interest rate and currency swaps were designated in fair value hedges, principally in respect of debt for which the net carrying amount of the related derivative contracts, net of accrued interest, at December 31, 2024, was a liability of $1,872 million (2023: $1,441 million liability).
At December 31, 2024, no debt instruments (2023: nil) were designated as hedges of net investments in foreign operations, relating to the foreign exchange risk arising between certain intermediate holding companies and their subsidiaries. See Note 29 for the accumulated balance recognised within other comprehensive income.

At the Company's Annual General Meeting (AGM) on May 21, 2024, the Board was authorised to allot ordinary shares in the Company, and to grant rights to subscribe for or to convert any security into ordinary shares in the Company, up to an aggregate nominal amount of approximately €150 million (representing approximately 2,147 million ordinary shares of €0.07 each), and to list such shares or rights on any stock exchange. This authority expires at the earlier of the close of business on August 20, 2025, and the end of the AGM to be held in 2025, unless previously renewed, revoked or varied by the Company in a general meeting.
At the May 21, 2024, AGM, shareholders granted the Company the authority to repurchase (i) up to 644.2 million ordinary shares "on-market" (excluding any treasury shares), less the number of ordinary shares purchased or committed to be purchased in terms of the buyback contracts ("off-market"), made under the authority in (ii); and (ii) up to 644.2 million ordinary shares off-market, less any on-market purchases made under the authority in (i).
In the case of both on-market and off-market purchases of the ordinary shares, the minimum price, exclusive of expenses, which may be paid for an ordinary share is €0.07 and the maximum price, exclusive of expenses, which may be paid for an ordinary share is the higher of: (i) an amount equal to 5% above the average market value for an ordinary share for the five business days immediately preceding the date of the purchase; and (ii) the higher of the price of the last independent trade and the highest current independent bid in relation to ordinary shares on the trading venues where the purchase is carried out. The authorities for both on-market and off-market purchases of the ordinary shares will expire at the earlier of the close of business on August 20, 2025, and the end of the AGM of the Company to be held in 2025. Ordinary shares purchased by the Company pursuant to these authorities will either be cancelled or held in treasury. Treasury shares are shares in the Company which are owned by the Company itself.

Income attributable to Shell plc shareholders ($ million)
16,09419,35942,309
Weighted average number of shares used as the basis for determining:
Basic earnings per share (million of shares)6,299.66,733.57,347.5
Diluted earnings per share (million of shares)6,363.76,799.87,410.5
Basic earnings per share are calculated by dividing the income attributable to Shell plc shareholders for the year by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year. The weighted average number of shares outstanding excludes shares held in trust.
Diluted earnings per share are based on the same income figures. The weighted average number of shares outstanding during the year is increased by dilutive shares related to share-based compensation plans. If the inclusion of potentially issuable shares could decrease diluted loss per share, the potentially issuable shares are excluded from the weighted average number of shares outstanding used to calculate diluted earnings per share.

32. Legal proceedings and other contingencies
General
In the ordinary course of business, Shell subsidiaries are subject to a number of contingencies arising from litigation and claims brought by governmental authorities, including tax authorities and private parties. The operations and earnings of Shell subsidiaries continue, from time to time, to be affected to varying degrees by political, legislative, fiscal and regulatory developments, including those relating to the protection of the environment and indigenous groups in the countries where they operate. The industries in which Shell subsidiaries are engaged are also subject to physical risks of various types.
The amounts claimed in relation to such events and, if such claims against Shell were successful, the costs of implementing the remedies sought in the various cases could be substantial. Based on information available to date and taking into account that in some cases it is not practicable to estimate the possible magnitude or timing of any resultant payments, management believes that the foregoing are not expected to have a material adverse impact on Shell's Consolidated Financial Statements. However, there remains a high degree of uncertainty around these contingencies, as well as their potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition.
Costs in respect of decommissioning and restoration obligations are subject to uncertain timing and amount, and are dependent on various factors that are not always within management's control (see Note 25). In certain divestment transactions, liabilities related to decommissioning and restoration are de-recognised upon transfer of these obligations to the buyer. In certain cases, Shell retains a secondary obligation for decommissioning activities, either via reversionary legislation or the issuance of guarantees, in case the primary obligor is not able to meet its obligation. These exposures are actively monitored, and the likelihood of a liability arising in respect of these obligations is not considered probable.
Decommissioning and restoration of manufacturing facilities
For long-lived manufacturing facilities, where decommissioning would generally be more than 50 years away, while there is a present obligation that has arisen from past events, the amount of the obligation cannot be reliably measured. This is because the settlement dates are indeterminate; and other estimates, such as extremely long-term discount rates for which there is no observable measure, cannot be reliably determined. Consequently, the decommissioning and restoration obligation that exists for such long-lived manufacturing facilities cannot be reliably quantified and is disclosed as a contingent liability. There remains a high degree of uncertainty concerning such obligations and their potential effects on future operations, earnings, cash flows, reputation and Shell's financial condition.

32. Legal proceedings and other contingencies continued
Pesticide litigation
Shell, along with another agricultural chemical pesticide manufacturer and several distributors, has been sued by public and quasi-public water purveyors, water storage districts and private landowners alleging responsibility for groundwater contamination caused by applications of chemical pesticides. There are approximately nine such cases currently pending, four claims made but not yet filed, and an active subpoena for records. These matters assert various theories of strict liability and negligence, seeking to recover actual damages, including drinking well treatment and remediation costs. Most assert claims for punitive damages. Shell continues to vigorously defend these actions. Based on the claims asserted and Shell's history regarding amounts paid to resolve varying actions, management does not expect the outcome of the matters pending at December 31, 2024, to have a material adverse impact on Shell USA. However, there remains a high degree of uncertainty regarding the potential outcome of some of these pending lawsuits, as well as their potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition.
Climate change litigation
In the USA, energy companies (including Shell), industry associations, and others have been named in several matters alleging responsibility for the impacts of climate change due to the use of fossil fuels. These matters assert various theories of liability for a wide variety of harms, including but not limited to, impacts to public and private infrastructure, natural resources, and public health and services. As of December 31, 2024, 31 lawsuits naming Shell as a defendant were pending.
In the Netherlands, in a case against Shell brought by a group of environmental non-governmental organisations and individual claimants (referred to herein as "Milieudefensie"), the Hague District Court in 2021 found that while Shell was not acting unlawfully, Shell had the obligation to reduce the aggregate annual volume of CO2 emissions of Shell operations and energy-carrying products sold across Scope 1, 2 and 3 by 45% (net) by the end of 2030 relative to its 2019 emissions levels. For Scopes 2 and 3, this was a significant best-efforts obligation. Shell appealed that ruling. On November 12, 2024, the Hague Court of Appeal upheld Shell's appeal and dismissed the claim against Shell. In doing so, the Court of Appeal annulled the earlier judgment of the District Court in its entirety with immediate effect. On February 11, 2025, Milieudefensie filed an appeal to the Supreme Court of the Netherlands.
Management believes the outcome of these matters should be resolved in a manner favourable to Shell, but there remains a high degree of uncertainty regarding the ultimate outcome of these lawsuits, as well as their potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition.
NAM (Groningen gas field) litigation
Since 1963, NAM – a joint venture between Shell and ExxonMobil (50%:50%) – has been producing gas from the Groningen field, the largest gas field in Western Europe. After smaller tremors in the 1990s and the late 2000s, an earthquake measuring 3.6 on the Richter scale occurred in 2012, causing damage to properties in the affected area. NAM has successfully settled close to 80,000 claims for physical damage to property. The Dutch State has taken over the damage-claim-handling from NAM for all claim categories, and the strengthening operation in the region, while NAM remains financially responsible insofar as the costs corresponded to NAM's liability. In 2022, NAM started arbitrations with the Dutch government to have its financial liability determined for costs which the Dutch government compensated to claimants and subsequently charged to NAM. These claims include but are not limited to physical damage to property, housing value loss, emotional damage, and loss of living enjoyment. Arbitral awards in the strengthening and damages arbitrations are expected to be rendered in March and Summer 2025 respectively.
Shell is seeking to reach a final, all-encompassing settlement with the Dutch government on the new design of the Dutch "Gasgebouw" earthquake costs and the wind-down of natural gas production in Groningen. Shell, ExxonMobil and the Dutch government reached agreements in 2018 (Heads of Agreement) and 2019 (Interim Agreement) and subsequently have been engaged in discussions on the interpretation and implementation of these agreements and on a final and all-encompassing settlement. As these discussions have not led to such a settlement, in December 2023, the NAM shareholders asked an independent arbitration panel to rule on the interpretation and implementation of the agreements made in 2018/2019. The purpose of this arbitration is for a neutral third party to assess the situation and provide clarity. The arbitration is expected to take several years, and the judgement will be binding. The arbitration does not preclude a final and all-encompassing settlement, provided Shell, ExxonMobil and the Dutch government agree to pursue such a settlement.
There remains a high degree of uncertainty concerning the ultimate outcome of these disputes and their potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows, reputation and Shell's financial condition.

Kazakhstan
Shell has several matters in dispute involving the Republic of Kazakhstan. One litigation matter involving a Shell NOV relates to a Sulphur permitting inspection outcome. An unfavourable ruling was issued by the Administrative Collegium of Astana City Court in February 2024. The Shell NOV filed an appeal in March 2024 to the Kazakhstan Supreme Court which is pending.
The other matters are ongoing disputes involving two Shell NOVs under the applicable production-sharing contracts.
At this time, it is not possible to reliably estimate the magnitude and timing of any possible obligations or payments in respect of the matters above or whether any payments will be due. There remains a high degree of uncertainty regarding the ultimate outcomes, as well as the potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition.
Nigerian litigation
Shell (in its capacity as previous owner of SPDC) and various subsidiaries and associates operating in Nigeria are parties to various environmental, non-environmental and contractual disputes brought in the courts of Nigeria, the USA and England. These disputes are at different stages in arbitration and litigation, including at the appellate stage, where judgements have been rendered against Shell entities in some of these disputes. If taken at face value, the aggregate amount of these judgements could be seen as material. Management, however, believes that the outcomes of these disputes, once determined, will be favourable to Shell. However, there remains a high degree of uncertainty regarding these cases, as well as their potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition.
OPL 245
In March 2017, criminal charges alleging official corruption and conspiracy to commit official corruption were filed against SNEPCO, one then current now former Shell employee and third parties including ENI SpA and one of its subsidiaries. Those charges were struck out for want of diligent prosecution and the proceedings have been dismissed. However, they can be refiled. In March 2017, parties alleging to be shareholders of Malabu Oil and Gas Company Ltd. (Malabu) filed two actions to challenge the 2011 settlement of litigation pertaining to Oil Prospecting Licence 245 (OPL 245) with regard to potential anti-bribery, anti-corruption and anti-money laundering laws and the award of OPL 245 to SNEPCO and an ENI SpA subsidiary by the Federal Government of Nigeria. Both actions are currently stayed awaiting the outcome of appeals filed against procedural decisions. Those appeal proceedings are ongoing. On May 8, 2018, Human Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA) sought permission from the Federal High Court of Nigeria to apply for an order to direct the Attorney General of the Federation to revoke OPL 245 on grounds that the entire Malabu transaction in relation to the OPL is unconstitutional, illegal and void as it was obtained through fraudulent and corrupt practice. On July 3, 2019, the Nigerian Federal High Court upheld objections from SNEPCO and NAE and struck the lawsuit filed by HEDA. The suit was struck because of the statute of limitations and lack of jurisdiction to hear the matter. HEDA has appealed the judgement, which is ongoing.
On July 21, 2022, the Dutch Public Prosecutor's office announced it had dismissed its investigation into bribery allegations related to OPL 245. On October 24, 2022, Re:Common, HEDA and The Corner House announced that they filed a complaint at the Court of Appeal in The Hague, pursuant to Article 12 of the Dutch Code for Criminal Procedure, challenging the decision by the Dutch Public Prosecutor to dismiss its investigation. On March 20, 2025, the Court of Appeal in The Hague dismissed this complaint. There remains a high degree of uncertainty around the OPL 245 matters and contingencies discussed above, as well as their potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition. Accordingly, at this time, it is not possible to reliably estimate the possible obligations and timing of any payments. Any violation of anti-bribery, anti-corruption or anti-money laundering legislation could have a material adverse effect on Shell plc's earnings, cash flows and financial condition.

On October 2, 2024, the Russian prosecutor filed a Moscow court claim against eight Shell-group entities (including Shell plc and Shell Energy Europe Limited ("SEEL")). The prosecutor seeks (i) declarations that Shell illegally abandoned in support of Sakhalin Energy Investment Company ("Sakhalin"); (ii) monetary relief of approximately €1.5 billion from SEEL to Gazprom Export ("GPE") for alleged unpaid gas deliveries in 2022; and (iii) a declaration that GPE can take 94₽ billion purportedly set aside for Shell for Sakhalin equity compensation from a Type-C account to net off against part of the alleged debt owed by SEEL to GPE. On January 30, 2025, SEEL filed a written postponement motion in the Moscow court proceedings regarding SEEL's non-payment of GPE gas invoices and Sakhalin. At a court hearing on February 14, 2025, the judge postponed the proceedings until the next hearing, which is scheduled for April 14, 2025.
At this time, it is not possible to reliably estimate the magnitude and timing of any possible obligations or payments in respect of the matters above or whether any payments will be due. There remains a high degree of uncertainty regarding the ultimate outcomes, as well as the potential effect on future operations, earnings, cash flows and Shell's financial condition.

36. Post-balance sheet events

Post-balance sheet events were originally evaluated up to March 25, 2025, the date these Consolidated Financial Statements were previously authorised for issue. Following the re-issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements on July 2, 2025, post balance sheet events have been re-evaluated to this date. This assessment has resulted in the disclosure of additional non-adjusting events, but did not lead to a change in the recognition or measurement of amounts reported in the Consolidated Financial Statements.
With effect from January 1, 2025, segment earnings are presented on an Adjusted Earnings basis (Adjusted Earnings), which is the earnings measure used by the Chief Executive Officer, who serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker, for the purposes of making decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance. This aligns with Shell's focus on performance, discipline and simplification. The Adjusted Earnings measure is presented on a current cost of supplies (CCS) basis and aims to facilitate a comparative understanding of Shell's financial performance from period to period by removing the effects of oil price changes on inventory carrying amounts and removing the effects of identified items. Identified items are in some cases driven by external factors and may, either individually or collectively, hinder the comparative understanding of Shell's financial results from period to period. The segment earnings measure used until December 31, 2024, was CCS earnings. The difference between CCS earnings and Adjusted Earnings are the identified items.
On January 23, 2025, and March 4, 2025, Shell announced changes to the Executive Committee. As per the announcements, with effect from April 1, 2025, the most senior leadership structure will be delayered to reflect the three primary areas of business value – Integrated Gas; Upstream; and Downstream, Renewables and Energy Solutions, while elevating Trading and Supply. These changes will not affect Shell's reporting segments as the changes do not impact how the Chief Executive Officer, who serves as the Chief Operating Decision Maker, makes decisions about allocating resources and assessing performance.
On March 13, 2025, Shell completed the sale of The Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria Limited (SPDC) to Renaissance, as announced on January 16, 2024. The divestment of SPDC aligns with Shell’s intent to simplify its presence in Nigeria through an exit of onshore oil production in the Niger Delta and a focus of future disciplined investment in its deep-water and integrated gas positions. Completion of the sale did not lead to a significant gain or loss on disposal. At closing, Shell provided secured term loans to SPDC to cover a variety of funding requirements, of which $0.8 billion was drawn at closing.
At Shell plc’s Annual General Meeting on May 20, 2025, the Board was authorised to allot ordinary shares in Shell plc, and to grant rights to subscribe for, or to convert, any security into ordinary shares in Shell plc, up to an aggregate nominal amount of approximately €140 million (representing approximately 2,007 million ordinary shares of €0.07 each), and to list such shares or rights on any stock exchange. This authority expires at the earlier of the close of business on August 19, 2026, or the end of the Annual General Meeting to be held in 2026, unless previously renewed, revoked or varied by Shell plc in a general meeting.
In 2025, until the issuance of these Consolidated Financial Statements the Company paid dividends to its shareholders of $4.3 billion and repurchased shares for an amount of $6.8 billion.
