1. MAIN MILESTONES AND ECONOMIC MAGNITUDES OF THE THIRD QUARTER 2012

Revenues were ARS 17,378 million in the third quarter of 2012, 15.7% above the third quarter of 2011. This increase was the result of higher prices in liquid fuels and the delivery of higher volumes of fuel oil.

Cost of sales during the third quarter of 2012 was 26.3% higher than in the same period in 2011. This increase is mainly explained by the increase in production costs. Purchases of the period were similar to those observed in the third quarter of 2011, showing a slight decline of approximately 1%, as a result of lower imports of gasoline and diesel and a decrease in the purchases of crude oil from third parties in the local market, that were offset by higher prices, mainly of crude oil.

Operating income was ARS 1,794 million in the third quarter of 2012, 31.2% lower than in the same period of 2011. This decrease was mainly driven by the operating income of our affiliated companies that was of ARS -104 million in this period, representing a decrease of ARS 314 million with respect to the same period in 2011.

Net income for the period was ARS 756 million, 51% lower than in the same period of 2011. It reflects the effect of recording deferred tax liability with an impact of ARS 408 million in the quarter. The comprehensive income, which considers the effects of the application of IFRS accounting standards, reached ARS 1,980 million, 3.2% below the third quarter of 2011.

Total capital expenditures reached ARS 4,129 million in the third quarter of 2012, outpacing those in the third quarter of 2011 by 14.3%. This increase was mainly driven by an increase in the value and greater activity in the Upstream business.

For the nine month period ended September 30, 2012, total capex reached ARS 9,673 million, outpacing those of the same period of 2011 by 18.7%. This increase was mainly driven by an increase in capex in the Upstream business and also due to the progress and completions of Downstream projects.

MARS: million of ARS

Upstream operating income was ARS 1,043 million, only 1.1% lower than the third quarter of 2011, despite the negative impact of ARS 272 million in the operating income of the affiliate companies versus the third quarter of 2011, which includes, among others, the exploration expenses of the Jaguar offshore well drilled in Guyana that had negative results.

The decrease in the operating income was principally due to the fact that higher revenues were more than offset by an increase in the operating costs and negative results from affiliate companies. Higher revenues were fueled by a constant adjustment of crude oil prices in the domestic market. The increase in operating costs was generated by higher operation services and other service contracts, repair and maintenance, higher payment of royalties to provinces (due to higher wellhead price and production increase) and heavier depreciations.

Consolidated Results Q3 2012

As a consequence of negotiations between producers and refining companies, the price of crude oil in the local market improved by 15.8%, to 70.4 USD/bbl. As for natural gas, average sales price was 1.67 USD/Mmbtu, 5.6% below that for the third quarter of 2011, mainly due to a different sales mix.

As a consequence of greater activity, production of crude oil increased by 0.6% compared to third quarter of 2011, reaching 229.3 Kbbld, LNG production was 40.5 Kbbld during the third quarter, 8.4% below the third quarter of 2011, due to a lower volume of gas processed in our separation plants. As for natural gas, production reached 34.3 Mm3d in the third quarter of 2012, 1.7% lower than for the same period in 2011. Total hydrocarbon production was 485.2 Kboed in the third quarter of this year, compared to 491.8 Kboed for same period last year. Both natural gas and crude production during the third quarter 2012 slightly exceeded production projected in the strategic plan presented by the company in August 2012.

The 9-month cumulative hydrocarbon production as of September 2012 was 485.2 Kboed, 0.6% higher than for the same period in 2011. In the same period there was an increase in the oil production of 4.7%, offset by a decrease in the gas production of 2.9%.

Exploration costs for the third quarter of 2012 rose by 193.3 % to reach ARS 176 million mainly due to the ARS 90 million cost incurred in the drilling of the Jaguar well, as described above, where YPF holds a 30% interest.

The third quarter results of the affiliate companies (controlled and non-controlled) in Upstream, including mainly YPF Holdings, YPF International, Mega, Pluspetrol and YPF Oil Services, was ARS -236 million compared to a ARS 36 million result in the third quarter of 2011, basically on account of the exploration expenses mentioned before and the results of Mega, which were affected by higher provision expenses in connection with higher tariffs for the purchase and transportation of natural gas in accordance with Resolutions 1982/2011 and 1991/2011 of ENARGAS.

Cumulative results

Cumulative operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was ARS 4,410 million, 27% higher than for the same period in 2011. This increase was mainly driven by the price adjustment in crude oil and stronger production levels recorded during the 2012 period.

Capex

Capex in Upstream was ARS 2,921 million in the third quarter of 2012, outpacing those for same period of 2011 by 9.1%.

Within conventional activity during the third quarter of 2012, capex related to increasing recovery factors continued in the areas of Zona Central and Catriel, in the Neuquina basin and in Las Heras and Manantiales Behr, in the Golfo San Jorge basin. Additionally, development and appraisal activities continued in the Vaca Muerta formation, basically in the area of Loma la Lata, in the Neuquina basin.

Upstream accumulated capex for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2012 was ARS 7,027 million, 12.9% higher than same nine-month period in 2011, basically due to greater activity in Neuquina basin both in development of conventional areas, and in unconventional exploration and development, where up to date more than 65 wells were drilled and over 50 were completed.

MARS: Millions of ARS

Operating income in Refining and Marketing for the third quarter of 2012 was ARS 624 million, 53.1% below that for the third quarter of 2011.

Lower operating income was mainly explained by a higher purchase price of crude oil (approximately ARS 1,900 million), an increase in purchase of biofuels (FAME and bioethanol) that are mixed with the company's diesel and gasoline production and hikes in transport and freight costs. As for revenues, there was an increase of approximately 14.2% as a consequence of a price increase in products sold in the local market (liquid fuels, fuel oil and lubricants) and the larger volumes of deliveries of refined products (0.8% higher than in the third quarter of 2011). With regards to exports, there was an 8.3% drop in operating income, mainly in petrochemical naphtha and LPG.

The volume of crude oil processed in the quarter was 306 Kbbld, similar to the level in the third quarter of 2011, following the pattern of crude oil production.

Consolidated Results Q3 2012

The third quarter results of affiliate companies within this segment, including mainly OPESSA and Refinor, was ARS 82 million, a 5% increase compared to the third quarter of 2011.

Cumulative results

Cumulative operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was ARS 2,242 million, 31.8% lower than the level reached in the first nine months of 2011. Higher operating revenues did not offset the negative impact generated by stronger crude oil purchases and heavier operating costs.

Capex

Capex in Refining and Marketing segment in the quarter was ARS 875 million, 25.7% above that for the same quarter of 2011. The increase was mainly based on the start up of the desulphurization projects at Lujan de Cuyo and La Plata refineries to improve the quality of refined products and the progress of the coke unit replacement in the La Plata refinery.

Additionally, cumulative capex in the Refining and Marketing segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was ARS 1,975 million, 43.4% higher than in same period of 2011, mainly as a consequence of the progress achieved in the projects mentioned above.

MARS: Millions of ARS

Operating income in Chemicals for the third quarter of 2012 was ARS 361 million, 2% above that for the third quarter of 2011.

Higher operating income of the quarter is mainly due to an increase in the results of Profertil, which reached ARS 158 million, 27% above that of the third quarter of 2011. Moreover, it is important to mention that during the quarter we achieved higher revenues as a consequence of higher average chemical prices which were partially offset with the decrease of approximately 14.2% in domestic sales volumes compared to the third quarter of 2011.

Consolidated Results Q3 2012

Cumulative results

Cumulative operating income for the nine months ended September 30, 2012 was ARS 787 million, 5.6% lower than the level reached in the first nine months of 2011. The reason is that income increase fell short of offsetting stronger purchases to Refining and gas to E&P as well as Profertil’s lower results.

CAPEX

Capex in Chemicals in the quarter was ARS 281 million, 63.4% above that for same quarter of 2011.

Additionally, cumulative capex in the chemicals segment for the nine months ended September 30, 2012, were ARS 531 million, above that of same period of 2011 by 28.6% mainly as a consequence of the advances in the CCR project, which will increase gasoline production capacity at our chemical complex in Ensenada.

2.4 CORPORATE

This business segment mainly involves running costs and other activities that are not reported against the business units previously mentioned.

Corporate net costs for the third quarter were ARS 234 million, ARS 101 million more than for the same period in 2011. This cost increase was mainly generated by salary increase and charges related to IT licenses and other outsourced services. Also, results yielded by the controlled company A-Evangelista S.A were ARS 79 million lower, compared to same quarter of 2011 because of the recognition of lower margins in long-term developments.

These forward-looking statements may include statements regarding the intent, belief, plans, current expectations or objectives of YPF and its management, including statements with respect to YPF's future financial condition, financial, operating, reserve replacement and other ratios, results of operations, business strategy, geographic concentration, business concentration, production and marketed volumes and reserves, as well as YPF's plans, expectations or objectives with respect to future capital expenditures, investments, expansion and other projects, exploration activities, ownership interests, divestments, cost savings and dividend payout policies. These forward-looking statements may also include assumptions regarding future economic and other conditions, such as future crude oil and other prices, refining and marketing margins and exchange rates. These statements are not guarantees of future performance, prices, margins, exchange rates or other events and are subject to material risks, uncertainties, changes and other factors which may be beyond YPF's control or may be difficult to predict.

YPF's actual future financial condition, financial ratios, operating, reserve replacement and other ratios, results of operations, business strategy, geographic concentration, business concentration, production and marketed volumes, reserves, capital expenditures, investments, expansion and other projects, exploration activities, ownership interests, divestments, cost savings and dividend payout policies, as well as actual future economic and other conditions, such as future crude oil and other prices, refining margins and exchange rates, could differ materially from those expressed or implied in any such forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause such differences include, but are not limited to, oil, gas and other price fluctuations, supply and demand levels, currency fluctuations, exploration, drilling and production results, changes in reserves estimates, success in partnering with third parties, loss of market share, industry competition, environmental risks, physical risks, the risks of doing business in developing countries, legislative, tax, legal and regulatory developments, economic and financial market conditions in various countries and regions, political risks, wars and acts of terrorism, natural disasters, project delays or advancements and lack of approvals, as well as those factors described in the filings made by YPF and its affiliates with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in particular, those described in “Item 3. Key Information-Risk Factors” and “Item 5. Operating and Financial Review and Prospects” in YPF's Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2011 filed with the US Securities and Exchange Commission. In light of the foregoing, the forward-looking statements included in this document may not occur.

Except as required by law, YPF does not undertake to publicly update or revise these forward-looking statements even if experience or future changes make it clear that the projected performance, conditions or events expressed or implied therein will not be realized.
