Economic performance
In 2019, OMV recorded a clean CCS Operating Result of EUR 3.5 bn despite the challenging market environment. This remarkable result was driven by strong results in both the Upstream and Downstream Business Segments and by strict cost discipline. In 2019, the operating cash flow amounted to EUR 4.1 bn. Following the payment of the highest dividend in OMV history, an organic free cash flow after dividends of EUR 1.3 bn was achieved, which contributed to finance major acquisitions in 2019, such as the 15% stake in the ADNOC Refining business and the 50% interest in SapuraOMV.
