NATURE OF GROUP FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND OPERATIONAL DATA In 2005, as a result of the Unification Transaction, Royal Dutch Shell became the single 100% parent company of Royal Dutch Petroleum Company ( Royal Dutch ) and of Shell Transport and Trading Company Limited (previously known as The Shell Transport and Trading Company, p.l.c.) ( Shell Transport ) the two former public parent companies of the Group. The Unification Transaction did not result in the formation of a new reporting entity. Immediately after the Unification Transaction each former Royal Dutch and Shell Transport shareholder who participated in the Unification Transaction held the same economic interest in Royal Dutch Shell as the shareholder held in the Group immediately prior to implementation of the Unification Transaction. Accordingly, the Unification Transaction has been accounted for using the carry-over basis of the historical costs of the assets and liabilities of Royal Dutch, Shell Transport and the other companies comprising the Group. In this booklet Group is defined as Royal Dutch Shell together with all of its consolidated subsidiaries. The expression Shell, Group, Shell Group and Royal Dutch Shell are sometimes used for convenience where references are made to the Group or Group companies in general. Likewise, the words we, us and our are also used to refer to Group companies in general or to those who work for them. These expressions are also used where no useful purpose is served by identifying the particular company or companies. The expression Group companies as used in this booklet refers to companies in which Royal Dutch Shell either directly or indirectly has control, by having either a majority of the voting rights or the right to exercise a controlling influence. The companies in which the Group has significant influence but not control are referred to as associated companies or associates and companies in which the Group has joint control are referred to as jointly controlled entities. In this booklet, associates and jointly controlled entities are also referred to as equity accounted investments. Except as otherwise specified, the figures shown in the tables in this booklet represent those in respect of Group companies only, without deduction of minority interests. However, where figures are given specifically for oil production (net of royalties in kind), natural gas production available for sale, and both the refinery processing intake and total oil product sales volumes, the term Group share is used for convenience to indicate not only the volumes to which Group companies are entitled (without deduction in respect of minority interests in Group companies) but also the portion of the volumes of associated companies and jointly controlled entities to which Group companies are entitled or which is proportionate to the Group interest in those companies. Financial Statements The Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Royal Dutch Shell and of those companies in which it, either directly or indirectly, has control either through a majority of the voting rights or the right to exercise a controlling influence or to obtain the majority of the benefits and be exposed to the majority of the risks. Investments in companies over which Shell Group companies have significant influence but not control are classified as associated companies and are accounted for on the equity basis. Interests in jointly controlled entities are also recognised on the equity basis. Interests in jointly controlled assets are recognised by including the Shell Group share of assets, liabilities, income and expenses on a line-by-line basis. The Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared using the carryover basis to account for the Unification and on the basis that the resulting structure was in place throughout the periods presented. The 2005 and 2004 Financial Statements contained in this booklet have been prepared in accordance with applicable laws in England and Wales and with International Financial Reporting Standards ( ) as adopted by the European Union. As applied to Royal Dutch Shell, there are no material differences with as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board. The 2003, 2002 and 2001 Financial Statements contained in this booklet have been prepared in accordance with US Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (), applied by the Group prior to its transition date to. The key accounting and presentation differences between and US GAAP for the Shell Group relate to retirement benefits, discontinued operations, incorporated joint ventures, Group share of profit of equity accounted investments, cumulative currency translation differences, sharebased compensation, major inspection costs, unquoted equity securities, impairments and reversal of impairments. Tables and disclosure that provide data over a five-year period show 2005 and 2004 on an basis and 2003, 2002 and 2001 on a basis. Except as otherwise noted, the figures shown in this booklet are in US dollars. As used herein all references to dollars or $ are to the US currency. Segment reporting Internal segment reporting is on a global basis. For the main segments an analysis of certain data is provided in this booklet between the USA and the world outside the USA. Operational data The operational data represent the totals reported by the Group companies, reflecting their dealings with third parties and with equity accounted investments. Certain data also include the Group share of equity accounted investments and this is indicated on the pages concerned. Currency translation Assets and liabilities of non-us dollar Group companies are translated to US dollars at year-end rates of exchange, whilst their statements of income and cash flows are translated at quarterly average rates. Translation differences arising on consolidation are taken directly to a currency translation differences account within equity. Upon divestment or liquidation of an entity, cumulative currency translation differences related to that entity are taken to income. Maps The maps on pages 20 to 30 are intended only to give an impression of the magnitude of the Group s Exploration & Production activities in certain parts of the world. They must not be considered authoritative, particularly in respect of delimitation of national, concession or other boundaries, nor in respect of the representation of pipeline routes and landfalls, field sizes or positions. The maps mainly describe the situation as at December 31, 2005. 1
