All forward-looking statements contained in this announcement are
expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements
contained or referred to in this section. Readers should not place
undue reliance on forward-looking statements. Additional risk
factors that may affect future results are contained in Shell plc’s
Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 (available at
www.shell.com/investors/news-and-filings/sec-filings.html and

Shell’s Net Carbon Intensity
Also, in this announcement we may refer to Shell’s “Net Carbon
Intensity” (NCI), which includes Shell’s carbon emissions from the
production of our energy products, our suppliers’ carbon emissions
in supplying energy for that production and our customers’ carbon
emissions associated with their use of the energy products we sell.
Shell’s NCI also includes the emissions associated with the
production and use of energy products produced by others which
Shell purchases for resale. Shell only controls its own emissions.
The use of the terms Shell’s “Net Carbon Intensity” or NCI are for
convenience only and not intended to suggest these emissions are
those of Shell plc or its subsidiaries.
Shell’s net-zero emissions
target
Shell’s operating plan, outlook and budgets are forecasted for a
ten-year period and are updated every year. They reflect the
current economic environment and what we can reasonably expect to
see over the next ten years. Accordingly, they reflect our Scope 1,
Scope 2 and NCI targets over the next ten years. However, Shell’s
operating plans cannot reflect our 2050 net-zero emissions target,
as this target is currently outside our planning period. In the
future, as society moves towards net-zero emissions, we expect
Shell’s operating plans to reflect this movement. However, if
society is not net zero in 2050, as of today, there would be
significant risk that Shell may not meet this target.
Forward Looking Non-GAAP
measures
This announcement may contain certain forward-looking non-GAAP
measures such as cash capital expenditure and divestments. We are
unable to provide a reconciliation of these forward-looking
non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures
because certain information needed to reconcile those non-GAAP
measures to the most comparable GAAP financial measures is
dependent on future events some of which are outside the control of
Shell, such as oil and gas prices, interest rates and exchange
rates. Moreover, estimating such GAAP measures with the required
precision necessary to provide a meaningful reconciliation is
extremely difficult and could not be accomplished without
unreasonable effort. Non-GAAP measures in respect of future periods
which cannot be reconciled to the most comparable GAAP financial
measure are calculated in a manner which is consistent with the
accounting policies applied in Shell plc’s consolidated financial
statements.
The contents of websites referred to in this
announcement do not form part of this announcement.
We may have used certain terms, such as
resources, in this announcement that the United States Securities
and Exchange Commission (SEC) strictly prohibits us from including
in our filings with the SEC. Investors are urged to consider
closely the disclosure in our Form 20-F, File No 1-32575, available
on the SEC website www.sec.gov.
