Bader Saeed Al Lamki, CEO of ADNOC Distribution,<\/b> said:&nbsp;&#8220;The Proposed Acquisition marks a significant milestone in ADNOC Distribution&#8217;s international growth strategy and reflects our confidence in South Africa as a high-potential, well-regulated fuel retail sector. Shell Downstream South Africa is a respected and financially strong business with deep roots in the local economy, and its values and ambitions align closely with our own. By bringing it into the ADNOC Distribution family, we plan to accelerate our international expansion, diversify our platform and create sustainable long-term value for our shareholders, our partners and the customers and communities that this business has proudly served for decades.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><b>About Shell Downstream South Africa&nbsp; <\/b><\/p>\n<p>SDSA represents Shell&#8217;s downstream business in South Africa, including a network of 580 company- and dealer-owned mobility and convenience sites, as well as lubricants, commercial fuels, aviation, and marine businesses. The brand had fuel volumes of approximately 3.5 billion liters and operated 360 convenience stores as of 2025.

South Africa&#8217;s investments in critical transport infrastructure, alongside a growing driving-age population, reinforce the growth potential of fuel consumption. The country benefits from a strong and transparent regulatory framework for fuel retail, with pricing structures designed to insulate&nbsp;margins against&nbsp;inflation and currency volatility. Together, these characteristics create a compelling environment for sustainable growth, consistent performance and cash generation, supporting long-term value creation for shareholders.<\/p>\n<p>ADNOC Distribution is committed to contributing to South Africa&#8217;s strategic economic priorities following the completion of the Proposed Acquisition and the subsequent sell-down to a local empowerment partner, with a focus on energy security, job creation and inclusive economic participation priorities through the local partner. The Company will seek to appoint a partner with a deep understanding of the South African sector, its regulatory environment and local operating requirements, including alignment with the objectives of the country&#8217;s Broad-Based Black Economic Empowerment (B-BBEE) legislation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The Proposed Acquisition is expected to be value-accretive to ADNOC Distribution, bolstering its earnings per share by 6% in the first full year after completion, and is projected to generate an IRR in excess of the hurdle rate for the Company&#8217;s fuel and convenience retail business.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Upon closing, the Proposed Acquisition would mark a key milestone in ADNOC Distribution&#8217;s international growth strategy towards building a stronger fuel retail presence in Africa. South Africa represents the fourth country where ADNOC Distribution would operate and follows its acquisition of a 50% stake in TotalEnergies Marketing Egypt in 2023 and the 2018 launch of its retail fuel stations in Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n<p>BofA Securities acted as the sole financial advisor. A&amp;O Shearman and ENS provided legal counsel to ADNOC Distribution on the transaction.<\/p>\n<p><b>Conference call<\/b><\/p>\n<p>ADNOC Distribution will host a conference call for investors and analysts on July 7, 2026, at 3:30pm UAE time.
