The company's auditors performed a limited review of the accounts. Commenting on the results, Thierry Desmarest said: 'The first quarter 2004 environment compared to the same quarter last year was marked by further weakness in the dollar relative to the euro, a decrease in European refining margins, slightly higher hydrocarbon prices, and the start of a rebound for Chemicals. Expressed in dollars, net income adjusted for special items increased by 9% to a record level of 2.47 billion dollars. The internal efforts of the Group, notably the sustained production growth, made this possible. Earnings per share, adjusted for special items and expressed in dollars, increased by 13%, thanks to the accretive effect of share buybacks over the past twelve months.' * dollar amounts represent euro amounts converted at the average €/$ exchange rate for the period Total - consolidated accounts in millions of euros 1Q04 1Q03 % Sales 27,860 28,303 -2% Operating income from business segments 3,564 3,919 -9% adjusted for special items Upstream 2,819 3,025 -7% Downstream 546 779 -30% Chemicals 199 115 +73% Net operating income from business segments 1,924 2,051 -6% adjusted for special items Net income 1,978 2,120 -7% adjusted for special items Net Income 1,961 2,120 -8% Earnings per share (euros) 3.18 3.28 -3% adjusted for special items Investments 1,611 1,494 +8% Divestments 182 993 -82% at selling price Cash flow from operating activities* 4,083 3,822 +7% * includes disbursements of 130 M€ in the first quarter 2004 and 182 M€ in the first quarter 2003 covered by a previously established reserve related to the Toulouse-AZF plant Special items in millions of euros 1Q04 1Q03 Impact of special items on operating Income - - Impact of special items on net income - - Gains on asset sales Restructuring charges and early retirement plans (17) - Impairments - - Other - - Total (17) - Number of shares millions 1Q04 1Q03 % Fully-diluted weighted-average shares 622.9 646.1 -4% Market environment 1Q04 1Q03 % €/$ 1.25 1.07 -14% * Brent ($/b) 32.0 31.5 +2% European refining margin TRCV ($/t) 21.6 32.3 -33% * change in the dollar versus the euro First quarter 2004 results Consolidated sales declined by 2% to 27,860 million euros (M€) from 28,303 M€ in the first quarter 2003. The first quarter 2004 was marked by further weakness in the dollar relative to the euro. The exchange rate was 1.25 dollars per euro in the first quarter 2004 compared to 1.07 dollars per euro in the first quarter 2003, representing a 14% decrease in the dollar. The oil market environment has been mixed. The Brent crude oil price rose by 2% to 32.0 $/b from 31.5 $/b in the first quarter 2003, primarily in response to stronger oil demand. European refining margins (TRCV) fell by 33% compared to the first quarter 2003, the sharp decline reflecting a pull back from the very high levels reached a year ago due to market tensions. Chemicals benefited from an improvement in the economic environment but continued to suffer the effects of weakness in the dollar. In the overall less favorable context relative to the first quarter 2003, operating income from the business segments adjusted for special items declined by 9% to 3,564 M€. Net operating income adjusted for special items decreased by 6% to 1,924 M€ compared to the first quarter 2003. Net income adjusted for special items declined to 1,978 M€, reflecting a 7% decrease from the same quarter last year. The impact of special items on net income was -17 M€ related to restructuring charges in the Chemicals segment. There were no special items affecting net income In the first quarter 2003. Earnings per share adjusted for special items based on 622.9 million fully- diluted weighted-average shares declined by 3% to 3.18 euros from 3.28 euros in the first quarter 2003. Net Income was 1,961 M€ compared to 2,120 M€ in the first quarter 2003. During the first quarter 2004, the Group bought back 4.3 million of its shares for 0.6 billion euros. At March 31, 2004 the number of fully-diluted shares was 621.1 million compared to 625.1 million at December 31,2003. The net-debt-to- equity ratio was 18.7% at March 31, 2004 compared to 25.9% at December 31, 2003 and 22.1% at March 31, 2003. Payment of the annual dividend, set to occur on May 25, 2004, will increase the ratio by about 10 percentage points. Cash flow from operating activities rose to 4,083 M€, an Increase of 7% over the same quarter last year. This increase, which contrasts with the 7% decline in net income, is due notably to a reduction in working capital. Investments were 1,611 M€ (75% allocated to the Upstream segment) compared to 1,494 M€ In the first quarter 2003. Divestments, based on selling price, were 182 M€ compared to first quarter 2003 divestments of 993 M€, which included the sale of the paints business. Free cash flow 1 was 2,654 M€ compared to 3,321 M€ in the same quarter last year. Upstream key figure 1Q04 1Q03 % Hydrocarbon production (kboe/d) 2,633 2,516 +5% • Liquids (kb/d) 1,723 1,612 +7% • Gas (Mcfd) 4,951 4,926 +1% Operating Income (M€) 2,819 3,025 -7% adjusted for special items Net operating Income 2 (M€) 1,389 1,405 -1% adjusted for special items Investments (M€) 1,212 1,166 +4% Divestments (M€) 99 180 -45% at selling price Cash flow from operating activities (M€) 2,330 2,571 -9% Operating Income from the Upstream segment adjusted for special Items was 2,819 M€, a decline of 7% compared to the first quarter 2003. The decline is due primarily to the negative impact of the weaker dollar, which more than offset the positive impacts of production growth and slightly higher hydrocarbon prices. Hydrocarbon production grew by 4.7% to 2,633 thousand barrels of oil equivalent per day (kboe/d) from 2,516 kboe/d in the first quarter 2003. Liquids production rose by 7% to 1,723 thousand barrels per day (kb/d) from 1,612 kb/d in the first quarter 2003. Gas production increased by 1% to 4,951 million cubic feet per day (Mcfd) from 4,926 Mcfd In the first quarter 2003. The production growth came primarily from the start-ups of the Amenam field in Nigeria and the Matterhorn field in the deep Gulf of Mexico, as well as higher production from Sincor in Venezuela, which was affected by strikes in the first quarter 2003, and from increased production in Indonesia and Argentina. Net operating income from the Upstream segment adjusted for special items was 1,389 M€2, a decrease of 1 % compared to the first quarter last year. Two new fields started production since the beginning of 2004, Skirne (Total- operated 40%) in the Norwegian part of the North Sea and Yucal Placer (Total 69.5%) in Venezuela. In Angola, a second discovery, Canela-1, was made on the ultra-deep offshore Block 32 (Total-operated 30%). 1) free cash flow = cash flow from operating activities + divestments - investments 2) 1Q04 includes the equity share of Cepsa's << Exploration & Production>> results: 1Q03 included the entire equity share of Cepsa's results in the Downstream net operating income. In Kazakhstan, the development plan for the Kashagan field (Total 20.37%(3)) has been formally approved and the first phase of investment launched. Total's LNG business continued to grow significantly with the signing of a shareholder's agreement in Iran to create Pars LNG (Total 30%) and by taking a 26% share of the regasification terminal that is under construction in Hazira, India.

In the first quarter 2004, European refining margins were well below the high levels reached a year earlier, marketing margins were slightly lower and the dollar was weaker against the euro. However, productivity programs partially offset the negative impact on results. Refinery throughput rose by 2% to 2,493 kb/d from 2,435 kb/d in the first quarter 2003. The capacity utilization rate was 92% in the first quarter 2004. Net operating income from the Downstream segment adjusted for special items was 411 M€(4) compared to 585 M€ in the first quarter last year. In the first quarter 2004, Total launched the project to build a distillate hydrocracker at the Normandy refinery in France. The hydrocracker, expected to start operating in 2006, will enable the refinery to increase the production of diesel and kerosene while reducing the output of heavy fuel. The total investment is expected to be 500 M€ over the 2003-2006 period and includes the construction of a hydrogen supply unit.

Operating income from the Chemicals segment adjusted for special items increased by 73% to 199 M€ from 115 M€ in the first quarter 2003. Base chemicals benefited from improving market conditions in Europe and from the contribution from the Samsung joint venture in South Korea. The results from the Intermediates remained stable, with productivity efforts offset by weakness in the dollar. Specialties improved their performance in a more favorable economic environment. Net operating income adjusted for special items rose to 124 M€(5) from 61 M€ in the first quarter 2003. In February 2004, Total announced a project to restructure its Chemicals segment aiming at a lighter functional organization as well as the creation of a decentralized entity, separate from the petrochemicals and the specialties, that would be comprised of the chlorochemlcals, intermediates and performance polymers. This new entity would have the resources necessary to become a competitive and independent player in the industry. The process of communicating with the employee representatives is ongoing, and in April 2004 the senior management of the new entity << CIP >> was named. Summary and outlook The Group's return on average capital employed (ROACE) was 19% over the period April 1, 2003 to March 31,2004. The return on equity for the same period was 25%. The annuallzed first quarter 2004 ROACE is 21%. Total is investing according to its full-year 2004 Capex budget of 10 billion dollars, which puts the priority on Upstream growth. The Group has continued to buy back shares, acquiring 1.8 million shares in April for 0.28 billion euros and bringing the total shares repurchased since the beginning of the year to approximately 1% of the total share capital. Concerning the proposed merger between Sanofi-Synthelabo and Aventis, Total announced its support for the increased friendly offer that was recommended by the Supervisory Board of Aventis. Total confirms its strategy to divest over the medium term. (5) 1Q04 includes the equity share of Cepsa's << Derivative chemicals >> results : 1Q03 included the entire equity share of Cepsa's results in the Downstream net operating income. Since the start of the second quarter 2004, given the demand growth and low inventory levels for refined products, the oil market environment has remained favorable with both oil prices and refining margins at high levels.
