Net revenue in 1Q21 was US$ 15.7 billion, 12.8% higher
than 4Q20, mainly due to the 38% appreciation in Brent prices. This result was also supported by higher diesel revenues, which reached
US$ 4.6 billion (24% higher than 4Q20), due to Petrobras’ higher market share in the diesel market and the growth in S-10 diesel
sales, despite the drop in total diesel sales volume.
The increase in Brent price also resulted in higher
revenues for other oil products, although sales volumes of oil products in the domestic market decreased by 5.6% due to seasonality and
restrictions imposed by COVID-19. The exception was the 8.3% increase in fuel oil sales volume for thermoelectric generation and use in
the industrial segment.
In 1Q21, despite lower volumes of exported crude
oil and oil products, export revenue reached US$ 4.1 billion, 13.7% higher when compared to 4Q20, as a result of the hike in Brent prices.
The 3% increase in oil and gas production in 1Q21 was not fully translated into revenues, with 27 MMbbl of ongoing crude oil exports.
In terms of revenue breakdown in the domestic market,
diesel and gasoline continued to be the main products, accounting, together, for 70% of the domestic oil products sales revenues in 1Q21.
There was an increase in China's share of exports in
1Q21, reaching 56%. Singapore remained the main destination for exports of oil products, with 75%, taking advantage of the opportunities
brought by IMO 2020. In 1Q21, we had the following distribution of export destinations:

Compared to 4Q20, the cost of goods sold increased
by 20.5% in 1Q21, mainly due to higher production taxes and imports costs, which are directly correlated to Brent prices, and to the absence
of the gain from the actuarial review of the health plan in 4Q20.
In addition to the increase in Brent prices, higher
participation of imported crude oil in the processed feedstock and of imported oil products in the sales mix also contributed to higher
import costs.

Selling expenses fell 16% in 1Q21, when compared to
4Q20, in line with lower sales volumes.
The increase in general and administrative expenses
reflects the absence of the US$ 0.2 billion actuarial gain relative to the health plan in 4Q20, partially offset by lower consulting costs
and lower headcount.
There was a reduction in exploration costs, mainly due
to higher write-offs in 4Q20 in the Espirito Santo and Campos basins.
In 1Q21, impairment was US$ 90 million, mainly due to
the shut-down of platform P-33 in Campos basin.
There were other expenses of US$ 284 million in 1Q21
as opposed to other revenues of US$ 1.3 billion in 4Q20, due to the absence of the gain from the actuarial review of the health plan carried
out in 4Q20 and to lower gains from divestments, partially offset by the lower provision related to the variable compensation program
and higher reimbursement from the Lava Jato operation.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA in 1Q21 reached US$ 8.9 billion, in
line with the previous quarter. This result reflects higher oil margins due to the appreciation of Brent prices, offset by lower sales
volumes. In addition, excluding the effect of the absence of the gain from the actuarial review of the health plan, occurred in 4Q20,
there were lower operating expenses impacting this metric.

The financial result for 1Q21 was negative US$ 5.6
billion, compared to the US$ 1.4 billion revenue in 4Q20. We ended 1Q21 with an FX exposure of US$ 34.9 billion, compared to US$ 43.3
billion in 4Q20, with lower passive exposure in dollars.
Despite the lower FX exposure in 1Q21, there was
an increase in foreign exchange losses, reaching US$ 3.4 billion, mainly due to the 9.6% depreciation of the Brazilian real over the US
dollar against the appreciation of 7.9% in 4Q20. It is also worth mentioning the lower premium in the repurchase of bonds (US$ 183 million)
and the positive effects of active liability management, which made possible the reduction of finance expenses (US$ 752 million).
Net income (loss) attributable to Petrobras’ shareholders
We recorded a net income of US$ 180 million in 1Q21,
US$ 11.3 billion lower than 4Q20, reflecting the impact of FX losses in the financial result due to the depreciation of the Brazilian
real over the US dollar, as well as the reversals of impairment and of past expenditures with the health plan, both in 4Q20.
Recurring net income attributable to Petrobras’ shareholders
and recurring adjusted EBITDA
In 1Q21, few non-recurring items impacted results.
Excluding such items, mainly the impairment of US$ 90 million and the goodwill on the repurchase of bonds of US$ 183 million, we would
have had a net income of US$ 231 million in 1Q21. Recurring EBITDA would have been US$ 8.7 billion, 34% higher than 4Q20.

In 1Q21, investments amounted US$ 1.9 billion, 7% below
4Q20 and 21% below 1Q20. More than 71% of capex is related to growth capex.
Growth investments are those with the main objective
of increasing the capacity of existing assets, implementing new production systems up to the full ramp up, disposal and storage assets,
increasing efficiency or profitability of the asset and implementing essential infrastructure to enable other growth projects. It includes
acquisitions of assets / companies and remaining investments in systems that started in 2019, exploratory investments, and investments
in R&D.
Sustaining investments, on the other hand, have the
main objective of maintaining the operation of existing assets, they do not aim at increasing the capacity of the facilities. Includes
investments in safety and reliability of installations, substitute well projects, complementary development, remaining investments in
systems that entered before 2019, scheduled stoppages and revitalizations (without new systems), 4D seismic, HSE projects, line changes,
infrastructure operational and ICT.
In 1Q21, investments in the Exploration and Production
segment totaled US$ 1.6 billion, with approximately 78% related to growth. Investments were mainly concentrated in: (i) development of
production in ultra-deep waters of the Santos Basin pre-salt (US$ 1 billion); (ii) exploratory investments (US$ 0.1 billion) and (iii)
development of new projects in deep waters (US$ 0.1 billion).
In the Refining, Transportation and Marketing segment,
investments totaled US$ 193 million in 1Q21, approximately 23% of which were growth investments. Investments in the Gas and Power segment
totaled US$ 63 million in 1Q21, of which approximately 60% are investments in growth.

As of March 31st, 2021, cash and cash equivalents
were US$ 12 billion and adjusted cash and cash equivalents totaled US$ 12.5 billion.
In 1Q21, despite the reduction in sales volumes in the
domestic and external markets and the higher build up of inventories relative to 4Q20, there was an increase in net cash provided by operating
activities, which reached US$ 7.2 billion, mainly due to the hike in the Brent prices. Free cash flow reached US$ 5.6 billion in 1Q21.
This level of cash generation, alongside cash inflows
from divestments of US$ 201 million and cash and cash equivalents, were used: (i) to prepay debt and amortize principal and interest due
in the period (US$ 4.1 billion) and (ii) to amortize lease liabilities (US$ 1.5 billion), reducing gross debt to US$ 71 billion. In addition,
CAPEX was US$ 1.7 billion.
[2]
* Includes short-term government bonds and time deposits and cash and cash equivalents of companies classified
as held for sale.
** In accordance with the Shareholders’ remuneration policy, the
additions (reductions) in investments shall not be considered in the calculation.
In 1Q21, the company settled several loans and financial
debts, amounting to US$ 4.1 billion, notably: (i) repayment of loans in the amount of US$ 1.1 billion, (ii) prepayment of banking loans
in the domestic and international market totaling US$ 100 million and (iii) US$ 1.4 billion in the repurchase of global bonds previously
issued by the Company in the capital market, with net premium paid to bond holders amounting to US$ 183 million (iv) total prepayment
of loans with export credit agencies, in the amount of US$ 224 million.
Conciliation EBITDA x OCF x FCF x FCFE
US$ billion
Debt
The cash flow generation and continuous liability management
allowed a relevant reduction in our indebtedness. Gross debt reached US$ 71 billion, 6% lower than December
31st 2020, mainly due to debt prepayments. In April, there was a high volume of repayments and prepayments, in the amount of
US$ 3.2 billion, which reinforces our commitment to deleveraging.
In addition, liability management helped increase the
average maturity from 11.71 years to 11.84 years.
The Gross Debt/LTM adjusted EBITDA ratio decreased from
2.66x on December 31st, 2020 to 2.47x on March 31st, 2021.
Net debt reduced 7.5%, reaching US$ 58.4 billion. The
Net Debt/LTM adjusted EBITDA ratio decreased from 2.22x on December 31st, 2020 to 2.03x on March 31st, 2021, the
best recorded mark since 2012.

In 1Q21, gross profit reached US$ 6.4 billion, an increase
of 30% when compared to 4Q20. This increase was due to higher revenues and was partially offset by higher production taxes, both mainly
due to higher Brent prices. Operating profit was 39% lower than in 4Q20, mainly due to the reversal of impairment losses, which occurred
in 4Q20.
When compared to 1Q20, gross profit increased by 29%
in 1Q21, mainly reflecting higher Brent prices. Operating profit was US$ 5.9 billion, a higher result, mainly due to impairment losses
occurred in 1Q20.
Lifting cost in 1Q21, without production taxes and without
leases, was US$ 4.91/boe, which represents a 13% reduction compared to 4Q20. The result is due to lower expenses with integrity, such
as maintenance and subsea inspections, which were concentrated in 4Q20.
When compared to 1Q20, lifting cost without production
taxes and without leases decreased by 17%. This drop is explained by the 23% depreciation of the real against the dollar, the mothballing
of shallow water platforms, divestments, and the start-up of P-70.
* Leases refers to platform leasing
In the pre-salt, lifting cost remained stable in 1Q21.
We continue to observe the maintenance of low unit costs, at levels below US$ 3/boe.
In the post-salt layer, lifting cost decreased 16% compared
to 4Q20, due to lower expenses with maintenance and subsea inspections.
In onshore and shallow water assets, lifting cost in
1Q21 remained stable compared to the previous quarter.
Higher production taxes in 1Q21 are explained by higher
Brent prices.

In 1Q21, gross profit was US$ 0.89 million
higher than 4Q20 due to a higher inventory turnover effect between quarters, with a variation of approximately US$ 1.09 billion, which
reflect the increase in Brent prices in 1Q21 (the positive inventory turnover effect was US$ 1.63 billion in 1Q21 and US$ 545 million
in 4Q20. Excluding the inventory turnover effect, gross profit would have been US$ 502 million in 1Q21 and US$ 699 million in 4Q20.
In 1Q20, there were higher margins for
oil products in the domestic market, especially diesel and gasoline, partially offset by lower LPG margins and lower sales volumes. There
were better margins in crude oil and fuel oil exports, partially offset by lower volumes of exported oil.
The increase in operating income reflects
the higher gross profit. Operating expenses increased in 1Q21 due to the positive effect in 4Q20 relative to the impairment reversal of
Comperj and gains on the sale of Liquigás. Excluding these effects, operating expenses were lower, mainly reflecting the reduction
in sales expenses due to lower sales volumes.

In 1Q21, gross profit was US$ 876 million, a reduction
of 11% when compared to 4Q20, as a result of lower margins in energy generation and lower margins in gas commercialization, both resulting
from higher acquisition costs for gas, mainly due to the increase in the regasified LNG costs, given the increase in consumption due to
the harsh winter and restrictions on supply.
In 1Q21, operating income was US$ 116 million lower
than 4Q20, mainly due to lower gross profit and higher tax expenses.
Reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA is an indicator calculated as the net income for
the period plus taxes on profit, net financial result, depreciation and amortization. Petrobras announces EBITDA, as authorized by CVM
Instruction 527 of October 2012.
In order to reflect the
management view regarding the formation of the company's current business results, EBITDA is also presented adjusted (Adjusted EBITDA)
as a result of: investments, impairment, results with divestments and write-off of assets, and reclassification of comprehensive
income (loss) due to the disposal of equity-accounted investments.
Adjusted EBITDA, reflecting the sum of the last twelve
months (Last Twelve Months), also represents an alternative to the company's operating cash generation. This measure is used to calculate
the Gross Debt to Adjusted EBITDA metric, helping to evaluate the company's leverage and liquidity.
EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA are not provided for in International
Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and should not serve as a basis for comparison with those disclosed by other companies and should
not be considered as a substitute for any other measure calculated in accordance with IFRS. These measures should be considered in conjunction
with other measures and indicators for a better understanding of the company's performance and financial condition.

cash equivalents, government bonds and time deposits from highly rated financial institutions abroad with maturities of more than 3 months
from the date of acquisition, considering the expected realization of those financial investments in the short-term. This measure is not
defined under the International Financial Reporting Standards – IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute
for cash and cash equivalents computed in accordance with IFRS. It may not be comparable to adjusted cash and cash equivalents of other
companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental measure to assess our liquidity and supports leverage management.
Adjusted EBITDA – Net income plus net finance
income (expense); income taxes; depreciation, depletion and amortization; results in equity-accounted investments; impairment, cumulative
translation adjustment and gains/losses on disposal/write-offs of assets. Adjusted EBITDA is not a measure defined by IFRS and it is possible
that it may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental
measure to assess our profitability. Adjusted EBITDA shall be considered in conjunction with other metrics for a better understanding
on our performance.

entities is attributable to non-controlling shareholders in the income statement, and disregarding the profit or loss attributable to
Petrobras shareholders.
CTA – Cumulative translation adjustment –
The cumulative amount of exchange variation arising on translation of foreign operations that is recognized in Shareholders’ Equity
and will be transferred to profit or loss on the disposal of the investment.

period, having their total effects only in the following period.
Free cash flow - Net cash provided by operating activities
less acquisition of PP&E and intangibles assets (except for signature bonus) and investments in investees. Free cash flow is not defined
under the IFRS and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for cash and cash equivalents calculated in accordance with
IFRS. It may not be comparable to free cash flow of other companies, however management believes that it is an appropriate supplemental
measure to assess our liquidity and supports leverage management.
Investments – Capital expenditures based
on the cost assumptions and financial methodology adopted in our Business and Management Plan, which include acquisition of PP&E,
including expenses with leasing, intangibles assets, investment in investees and other items that do not necessarily qualify as cash flows

purchase of property, plant and equipment on credit and borrowing costs directly attributable to works in progress.

Leverage – Ratio between the Net Debt and the
sum of Net Debt and Shareholders’ Equity. Leverage is not a measure defined in the IFRS and it is possible that it may not be comparable

our liquidity.

other companies, however our management believes that net debt is an appropriate supplemental measure that helps investors assess our
liquidity and supports leverage management.
