Income statement Fourth quarter consolidated revenues amounted to NOK 12 034 million, an increase of 4 per cent compared with the corresponding quarter in 2011. Revenues for the year were NOK 44 922 million compared to NOK 36 474 million last year, an increase of 23 per cent. EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2012 was NOK 1 220 million (including non-recurring items of NOK 160 million from the sale of real estate) compared to NOK 1 047 million for the fourth quarter of 2011. EBITDA for the year was NOK 4 739 million compared to NOK 3 445 million for the year 2011. The increase in operating revenues and EBITDA reflect strong markets and high activity in the businesses. The EBITDA margin for the fourth quarter of 2012 was 10.1 per cent (adjusted EBITDA margin was 8.9 per cent). The corresponding figure for fourth quarter of 2011 was 9.0 per cent. EBITDA margin for the year was 10.5 per cent compared to 9.4 per cent for the year 2011 Net financial items for the fourth quarter were negative NOK 166 million, compared to a positive NOK 12 million for the same period in 2011. In the fourth quarter 2011 financial items were positively influenced by foreign exchange gains on financial investments and capitalisation of borrowing costs. Fluctuations in the fair value of hedging transactions which did not qualify for hedge accounting, represented an accounting loss of NOK 99 million in the fourth quarter, of which a loss of NOK 25 million is booked under EBITDA and a loss of NOK 74 million is booked under financial items. Pre-tax profit for the fourth quarter of 2012 was NOK 635 million compared to NOK 823 million for the same period in 2011. Tax expenses for the fourth quarter were NOK 131 million. This corresponds to an effective tax rate of 21 per cent. The low tax rate is mainly explained by the accounting gain from sale of real estate, which is a non-taxable gain. Net profit for the fourth quarter was NOK 504 million. This represents earnings per share of NOK 1.86

Cash flow Cash flow from continuing operating activities was positive NOK 2 443 million in the fourth quarter. This reflects a NOK 1 622 million decrease in net current operating assets, from NOK 3 488 million at the end of the third quarter, to NOK 1 866 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2012. The main reason for the decrease in the net current operating assets is phasing of the projects. The working capital tied up in each of the projects may fluctuate a lot depending on where in the execution process the project is. The working capital level in the total group may fluctuate depending on the phasing of some of the key projects. This is especially the case in Products Solutions. However, “over the cycle” we expect a working capital level of 5% - 6% of annualized revenue based on the existing business mix. Our liquidity reserves were solid at the end of the year with cash and bank deposits of NOK 1.2 billion. Undrawn committed long-term bank revolving credit facilities amounted to NOK 8.0 billion, giving a total liquidity buffer of NOK 9.2 billion.

Balance sheet The company has a healthy financial position with a comfortable debt level. Equity ratio at the end of the fourth quarter was 29.8 per cent compared to 29.6 per cent at the end of the third quarter 2012. Gross interest-bearing debt amounted to NOK 7.7 billion at the end of the fourth quarter. Net interestbearing items were NOK 5.4 billion, compared to NOK 6.0 billion in the previous quarter. In October 2012 AMC Connector AS, which was owned 50% by Aker Solutions, sold the subsea construction and cable-lay vessel Lewek Connector (previously called AMC Connector) to Ocean Yield AS. The vessel was sold for a total consideration of USD 315 million, which gave a small positive result effect for Aker Solutions. The sale also provided Aker Solutions with a net cash release of approximately NOK 345 million. In November Aker Solutions ASA signed a multicurrency credit facility of EUR 400 million. The credit facility is split into a 3-year tranche of EUR 270 million and a 1.5-year tranche of EUR 130 million and will be used for general corporate purposes.

Order intake and backlog Order intake in the fourth quarter was NOK 9.1 billion compared to NOK 7.9 billion in the fourth quarter of 2011. At the end of the fourth quarter, the order backlog was NOK 56.7 billion, an increase of NOK 15.3 billion or 37 per cent from the fourth quarter of 2011. Order intake represents both new contracts and growth in existing contracts. The order backlog contains values of signed contracts and estimated values for the firm contract periods concerning frame agreements and service contracts. Estimated values for option periods are not included in the order backlog.

Market trends and prospects Aker Solutions experiences strong demands for its services in most regions of the world, and tendering activity is high. The increasing number of complex and deepwater fields in the global offshore industry creates a strong international demand for Aker Solutions’ conceptual engineering and front-end design services in ENG. The subsea market, a key driver for SUB and UMB, is in high growth, and Aker Solutions is tendering for major opportunities in the North Sea, Brazil, Asia Pacific and West of Africa.

At present, about 97 deepwater drilling vessels are on order world-wide. Several industry analysts expect on average 20-30 new-builds to be delivered each year until 2020. These represent important opportunities for DRT and MLS. There is high tender activity with Asian yards. A trend of complexity associated with the deep water domain is the large market segment of floating production systems. The industry is at an all-time high with a backlog of 73 on order, and 235 potential projects in final design, planning or study phase. Floating production structures provide significant opportunities for ENG, PRS, MLS, SUB and UMB. The North Sea remains the world’s largest regional offshore market and new discoveries give increased confidence. Capex and opex markets are strong. Global brownfield markets have a positive long term outlook, and MMO sees a healthy demand for its offerings going forward. The WIS and OMA businesses see market opportunities in the North Sea, West of Africa, Brazil and the Middle East. The Brazilian market is set to become the single largest offshore market over the next five years, and is moving from heavy oil, sandstone and post-salt towards light oil and pre-salt carbonate. The market is characterised by local content requirements and strong local players. In North America, offshore activity is picking up and the developments are moving to increasingly deeper waters. West Africa, dominated by Nigeria and Angola, is characterised by increasing local content requirements and deep waters. Opportunities are starting to emerge in East Africa as a potential new oil and gas province. The markets in Asia Pacific are gas-focused and the expected growth in spending is high, over 15 per cent per year until 2015.

Strategic development and investments Aker Solutions expanded its subsea business by establishing a subsea lifecycle service base in Labuan, Malaysia. The objective is to support all installed and future shallow and deepwater projects within the Asia Pacific region. In October, Aker Solutions acquired a fabrication facility in Sandnessjøen, Norway, to increase its fabrication capacity in the Norwegian Sea and further north. The purchase is part of Aker Solutions’ northern Norway strategy. As the oil and gas industry moves further north, it is important to build up capacity in northern Norway. Aker Solutions bought the Canadian Asset Integrity Management (AIM) company Thrum Energy Inc. The acquisition will grow Aker Solutions’ AIM portfolio and increase the company’s presence in the Atlantic Canada market. Separation Specialists Inc., a California-based provider of produced water de-oiling products and field services was bought by Aker Solutions. This strengthens the company’s position in the produced water deoiling segment. Aker Solutions strengthens its commitment to the Canadian oil and gas market through taking full ownership of Newfoundland Labrador-based AKCS Offshore Partner. The company is offering maintenance, modifications and operations (MMO) services. In November 2012 a transaction was closed for the buyback of four of Aker Solutions’ key leased manufacturing and service facilities in Norway. The investment includes 100 % of share capital and assumed debt, approximately NOK 700 million in total, in a company owning these properties. The company has no employees. In January 2013 Aker Solutions acquired a majority stake in Aberdeen-based Enovate Systems Limited, a leading technology company within subsea well control equipment. Enovate has developed a wide range of unique and patented components and products for use in open water workover systems, in riser workover

systems, rigless intervention systems and drilling safety systems. Specific advantages are superior cutting and sealing capabilities and the unique use of complete metal to metal sealing solutions.

Health, Safety and Environment We had 18 Total Recordable Injuries in Q4. 4 of these resulted in Lost Time. The majority of the injuries were finger injuries. We also had some foot and head injuries from slip and fall. This resulted in a LTIF reduced from 0,55 in Q3 to 0,31 in Q4. TRIF is down from 1,72 in Q3 to 1,39 in Q4. (Both frequencies based one million worked hours). In Q4 we won three HSE awards: 

MMO wins BP safety award in appreciation of the excellent HSE results achieved in the Norwegian continental shelf on the frame agreement for the Ula, Valhall, Tambar and Hod platforms



Aker Solutions’ manufacturing centre for Surface Products in Batam Indonesia has won the national environmental award



Aker Solutions achieves gold in the annual 2012 IFAP/ CGU Safe Way Awards in Australia

During fourth quarter Aker Solutions has good progress rolling out the new HSE initiatives. Among these is a new HSE leadership course and a new HSE movie, “Committed to Care”. In addition we roll out a new tool for self-assessment of compliance towards our HSE Operating System, the HSE plan elements and major lessons learned from serious incidents.

The Aker Solutions share The share price increased from NOK 108.50 at the end of the third quarter 2012 to NOK 112.90 at the end of the fourth quarter 2012. During the fourth quarter, the average share price was NOK 112.79, the highest closing share price was NOK 117.00 and the lowest closing share price was NOK 110.10. The daily turnover averaged 957,565 shares. Market capitalisation was NOK 30.9 billion at the end of the fourth quarter 2012, compared to NOK 29.7 billion at the end of the third quarter. In connection with the share purchase programme for employees, Aker Solutions sold 3 221 own shares during the fourth quarter of 2012. By the end of the fourth quarter of 2012, Aker Solutions thus owned 3,490,985 of own shares, or 1.27 per cent, of the company’s 274,000,000 shares.

Revenues in SUB increased with 30 per cent compared to the fourth quarter last year and 52 per cent compared to the year 2011. Strong progress on hardware deliveries and projects in the North Sea and the Asia Pacific business was the main driver behind the growth. EBITDA margin in SUB came to 8.2 per cent in the quarter and to 8.3 percent for the year. The acquisition of Enovate gives access to leading subsea well control technology. In UMB the revenues decreased by 18 per cent in the fourth quarter compared to the fourth quarter last year due to delayed awards of projects. The EBITDA margin for the quarter increased compared to the last quarters. UMB is still executing on projects awarded during a period with challenging market conditions and have had some execution challenges. Tender activity is high and the market outlook is positive. For DRT, revenues in the quarter were in line with the corresponding quarter last year. The revenue growth came to 23 per cent in 2012 compared to 2011. Projects have continued to deliver well. EBITDA margin came to 11.3 per cent in the fourth quarter and 12.1 per cent for the year. Order intake for the year was strong due to award of seven drilling packages for Jurong in Brazil. PRS revenues for the fourth quarter and the year 2012 were above last year’s revenues for the corresponding periods. The low EBITDA is due to losses on projects in Brazil. The Brazil losses were partly compensated by strong performance for PRS Norway, PRS Australia and Aker Midsund.

Field-Life Solutions Field-Life Solutions consists of the business areas: Maintenance, Modifications & Operations (MMO), Well Intervention Services (WIS) and Oilfield Services & Marine Assets (OMA). The key figures for these segments are as follows.

MMO revenues in the quarter were in line with the corresponding quarter last year. The revenue growth for the year came to 16 per cent compared to 2011, due to high activity on the project portfolio in general and to high activity on Joint Venture projects with other business areas. The EBITDA margin was 7.9 per cent in the fourth quarter, somewhat down compared to the corresponding quarter last year due to phasing of projects. Order intake for the year 2012 was strong with NOK 12 billion. Activity level and EBITDA for WIS in the fourth quarter were low compared to the corresponding quarter last year due to low performance in the UK and close-down costs related to the Process business in Norway.

Principal risks and uncertainties Operational risk is the ability to deliver existing contracts at the agreed time, quality, functionality and cost. Delivering projects and equipment in accordance with the contract terms and the anticipated cost framework represents a substantial risk element, which will be the most significant factor affecting Aker Solutions’ financial performance. Results also depend on costs, both Aker Solutions’ own and those charged by suppliers, and on interest expenses, exchange rates and customers’ ability to pay. Aker Solutions also frequently engages in mergers & acquisitions and other transactions that could expose the company to financial and other non-operational risks such as warranty claims and price-adjustment mechanisms. Aker Solutions has established guidelines and systems to manage its exposure in the financial markets. These systems cover, among other issues, currency, interest rate, tax, counterparty and liquidity risks. Aker Solutions works systematically with risk management in all its business areas, and has extensive systems and procedures in place to manage risk.

Notes Note 1 General Aker Solutions ASA (the company) is a company domiciled in Norway. The consolidated financial statements of Aker Solutions ASA comprise the company and its subsidiaries (together referred to as the group) and the group's interests in associates and jointly controlled entities and assets.

Note 2 Basis for preparation Aker Solutions' interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) as approved by the European Union and their interpretations adopted by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB). The interim report does not include all of the information required for full annual consolidated financial statements, and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of the group for 2011. The accounting policies applied in the interim financial statements are the same as those described in the annual report 2011 for Aker Solutions, except for accounting policy related to defined benefit obligations (see below). The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting. The Interim Financial Statements are unaudited. On 1 January 2011, Aker Solutions adopted revised IAS 24 Related Party disclosures. Following the revised definition of related party in the standard, Kvaerner is not a related party of Aker Solutions. However, due to the relationship in 2011, transactions and balances between Kvaerner entities and Aker Solutions entities were reported as related party transactions. As from 2012, transactions with Kvaerner are not considered related party transactions under IAS 24 and are not reported as such in the financial statements. Significant volume of business will continue to take place between Kvaerner entities and Aker Solutions entities in the ordinary course of business as disclosed in the 2011 Annual report. The annual report for 2011 is available on www.akersolutions.com. Changes in accounting policies related to defined benefit obligations Aker Solutions previously recognised actuarial gains and losses which exceeded the greater of 10 per cent of the defined benefit obligation and 10 per cent of plan assets. Actuarial gains and losses exceeding this amount were divided by the expected remaining working lives of the plan members when recognised in the income statement. Under the new policy, actuarial gains and losses will be recognised in full in the period in which they occur. Actuarial gains and losses will be recognised in other comprehensive income. In addition, certain items of the pension expense has been reclassified from operating to financial items. Aker Solutions has opted to change accounting policy for actuarial gains and losses in order to better align accounting treatment for defined benefit pension plans with the revised standard which will be implemented on 1 January 2013. The changes in accounting policies have been applied retrospectively and had an insignificant effect on earnings per share in 2011 and Q1 2012. The tables below summarises the adjustments made to the financial statements on implementation of the new accounting policies. The net effect of the policy change on the consolidated balance sheet that has previously been reported is shown in the table below:

Amounts in NOK million Reduction in Other non-current operating assets (pension asset) Increase of Employee benefits obligations Reduction in Deferred tax liabilities Net effect on equity

31.3 2012 (102) (351) 127 (326)

30.6 2011 (80) (210) 81 (209)

30.3 2011 (81) (213) 82 (212)

The effect of the policy change on the consolidated income statement for Q1 2012 is shown in the table below:

Amounts in NOK million Operating revenues and other income Operating expenses EBITDA Depreciation, amortisation and impairment Operating profit Net financial items Income tax (expense) benefit Net profit (loss) continuing operations

The policy change would have increased profit after tax for continuing operations with NOK 14 millions in 2011. The amount has been considered immaterial, and the income statements for 2011 has not been restated.

Note 3 Judgements, estimates and assumptions In applying the accounting policies, management makes judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. The estimates and judgements are continually evaluated and are based on historical experience and other factors, including expectations of future events that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Revision to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimate is revised if the revision affects only that period, or in the period of the revision and future periods if the revision affects both current and future periods. In preparing these interim financial statement, the significant judgements made by management in applying the group's accounting policies and the key sources of uncertainty in the estimates were consistent with those applied to the consolidated financial statements as at and for the period ended 31 December 2011.

Note 4 Share capital and equity At the end of Q4 2012 Aker Solutions ASA has 274 000 000 ordinary shares at a par value of NOK 1.66 per share, and holds 3 490 985 treasury shares in the end of 2012. In their annual meeting on April 13, 2012 the shareholders of Aker Solutions ASA approved a dividend payment of NOK 3.90 per share for 2011 which was proposed by the Board of Directors. The payment was made on 27 April 2012. The average number of outstanding shares, which is used to calculate earnings per share, has been: For the period 1 January - 31 March 2012: 269 875 353 (diluted 270 456 630) For the period 1 April - 30 June 2012: 269 524 810 (diluted 269 930 815) For the period 1 July - 30 September 2012: 270 292 938 (diluted 271 039 757) For the period 1 October - 31 December 2012: 270 507 274 (diluted 271 714 628) For the period 1 January - 30 December 2012: 270 048 870 (diluted 271 025 655) Diluted number of shares includes the anticipated effects of rights to receive bonus shares as part of the Employee share purchase programme launched in 2010 and 2011.

Note 5 Related party The group has several related party relationships between parents, subsidiaries, associates and joint ventures and with its directors and executive officers and directors. The largest shareholder of Aker Solutions, Aker Kvaerner Holding AS, is controlled by Aker ASA (70 per cent) which in turn is controlled by Kjell Inge Røkke and his family through TRG Holding AS and The Resource Group AS. All entities which Kjell Inge Røkke controls are considered related parties to Aker Solutions. Aker Solutions believes that all transactions with related parties have been based on arm's length terms. Below is a description of the most significant transactions and balances with related parties in 2012. Related party transactions with Aker Aker Capital AS Aker Solutions agreed in March 2012 to increase the ownership in Aker Clean Carbon to 100 per cent, by taking over Aker Capital AS' stake of 50 per cent. Aker Capital is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Aker ASA. The transaction includes a cash element of NOK 0 (zero) at the time of the takeover, and an agreement between the parties, by which the acquirer will pay an amount to the seller, based on earnings from new technology agreements within the coming 10 years. The seller's entitlement to financial compensation has been capped at the amount equal to Aker ASA's total investment in Aker Clean Carbon, which is NOK 147 million, plus 12 per cent p.a. Fair value of the consideration in the transaction is estimated to be NOK 0 (zero). Ocean Yield AS AMC Connector AS agreed on 11 October 2012 to sell Lewek Connector to Ocean Yield AS. Ocean Yield AS is a wholly owned subsidiary of Aker ASA and the transaction was conducted according to the amended shareholder agreement pertaining to related party transactions in Aker Kvaerner Holding. AMC Connector AS was, at the time of the transaction with Ocean Yield, a jointly controlled entity by Aker Solutions and Emas Offshore Limited. Lewek Connector was sold for a total consideration of USD 315 million, which gave a small positive result effect for Aker Solutions. Related party transactions with jointly controlled entities Aker DOF Deepwater AS A loan of NOK 258 million (NOK 234 million as of 31 December 2011) is given to the jointly controlled entity Aker DOF Deepwater (NIBOR 12 months + 1.5 per cent).

Note 6 Disposals AMC Connector AS On 22 October 2010, Aker Solutions entered into an agreement to sell its subsidiary Aker Marine Contractors (AMC) to Singapore based Ezra Holdings Ltd (Ezra). The transaction was completed in the first quarter of 2011. In addition to the disposal of AMC it was also agreed to transfer 50 per cent of Aker Solutions' ownership in the Aker Connector installation vessel (Lewek Connector), which was delivered from the yard in November 2011. This transaction took place on 16 May 2012 by selling 50 per cent of the shares in AMC Connector AS to Emas Offshore Limited. No gain was recognised related to the transaction. The remaining 50 per cent ownership of the company retained by Aker Solutions was accounted for as a jointly controlled entity according to the equity method until Aker Solutions acquired the shares back in October 2012 (see note 9 Business combinations and acquisition of subsidiaries).

Note 7 Deferred gain K2 Eiendom The construction of the office building at Fornebu was completed in April 2012 and a deferred accounting gain of NOK 165 million was recognised in Other income in Q2 2012. Jåttåvågen The construction of the office building at Jåttåvågen was completed in December 2012 and a deferred accounting gain of NOK 160 million was recognised in Other income in Q4 2012.
