Forward-Looking Statements
This communication may include projections and other “forward-looking: statements within the meaning of applicable securities laws, which are based on current expectations and projections about future events and financial
performance. Statements herein, other than statements of historical fact, regarding future events or prospects, are forward-looking statements. The words “may”, “will”, “should”, “expect”, “anticipate”, “believe”, “estimate”, “plan”,
“predict”, “intend” or variations of these words, as well as other statements regarding matters that are not historical fact or regarding future events or prospects, constitute forward-looking statements. L1E Finance GmbH & Co KG (the
“Company”) has based these forward-looking statements on its current views with respect to future events and financial performance in addition to certain assumptions about the future, some of which are beyond the Company’s
control. These forward-looking statements involve a number of risks, uncertainties, and assumptions about the Company and its subsidiaries and its investments, including, among other things, the development of its business, trends
in its operating industry, and future capital expenditures and acquisitions. In light of these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, actual results may not occur or may differ materially from those predicted in the forward-looking
statements and from the past performance of the Company. As a result, you should not rely on these forward-looking statements. Neither the Company nor any other person make any warranties or representations about accuracy,
sequence, timeliness or completeness of the content of the presentation or the achievement or reasonableness of future projections, management targets, estimates, prospects or returns, if any.
Non-GAAP and Non-IFRS Financial Measures
This communication may contain certain non-GAAP and non-IFRS measures and ratios, including for example EBITDAX, net debt, net working capital, coverage ratios and EBITDAX per boe that are not required by, or presented in
accordance with, any GAAP or IFRS.
The non-GAAP and non-IFRS measures and ratios may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures of other companies and have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for
analysis of our operating results as reported under IFRS or any GAAP. Our management uses these measures to measure operating performance and liquidity, in presentations to our Management Board and as a basis for strategic
planning and forecasting, as well as monitoring certain aspects of our operating cash flow and liquidity. We present non-GAAP and non-IFRS measures and ratios because we believe that they and similar measures are widely used by
certain investors, securities analysts and other interested parties as supplemental measures of performance and liquidity. Non-GAAP and non-IFRS measures and ratios such as EBITDAX, coverage ratios and EBITDAX per boe are
not measurements of our performance or liquidity under IFRS and should not be considered as alternatives to operating profit, profit for the year, capital expenditure or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS
or any GAAP or as alternatives to cash flow from operating, investing or financing activities.
We present in this communication a reconciliation of each of the non-GAAP and non-IFRS measures to the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS and discuss its limitations
See note above.
Some of the limitations of EBITDAX are:
• they do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for contractual commitments;
• they do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs;
• they do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary, to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
• although depreciation and amortization are non cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will often need to be replaced in the future and EBITDAX does not reflect any cash requirements that would be required to
make such replacements;
• they do not reflect the impact of certain cash charges resulting from matters we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations; and
• other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently from the way we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Because of these limitations, EBITDAX should not be considered as measures of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business or as measures of cash that will be available to us to meet our obligations. You
should compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our IFRS results and using these non-GAAP and non-IFRS measures only to supplement your evaluation of our performance.

West Nile Delta Development
Well established position in Norway
First Gas Achieved
West Nile Delta (“WND”) first well was successfully started up ahead of
schedule on 24th March 2017
Wet gas rates are already exceeding 700 mcf/d (gross), more than the
planned production rates for these fields
Letter of Credit to cover DEA’s share of revenues received from a top
Egyptian bank
Capex savings of Taurus and Libra development reached a significant
reduction in costs compared to the initial budget due to:
Excellent drilling and completion performance
Cost deflation
Foreign exchange movements
Development of Giza, Fayoum and Raven (“GFR”) fields is well on track
to reach production start in H1 2019

Commentary

West Nile Delta production commencement ahead of schedule and
strong performance of the Norwegian fields

Gross Revenues (€m)

% margin
Commentary
Q1 2017 revenues of €389m up 2% compared to the same period last
year as lower production was offset by higher oil prices
Q1 2017 EBITDAX of €211m was 12% higher compared to Q1 2016 due
higher revenues and lower costs, despite higher impairments of Egyptian
receivables (€25m vs. €11m)
Norway was the main contributor to the EBITDAX growth while
profitability in Germany declined due to lower hedge effect
Q1 2017 production costs decreased by 24% from $7.9/boe in Q1 2016
to $6.0/boe. The decrease is attributable to cost reduction programs, the
depreciation of the Egyptian Pound and weaker Euro
