  • » Ideally positioned to balance strategic and selective fleet optimization efforts with continued attractive shareholder returns
  • » Strong emphasis on returning capital to shareholders

APPENDIX

ROBUST MID-TERM OUTLOOK FOR INTRA-REGIONAL TRADES

ORDERBOOK TO FLEET RATIO AND VESSEL AGE ACROSS SIZE SEGMENTS WILDCARD FACTORS INFLUENCING THE OUTLOOK

  • » Favorable demand outlook for intra-regional trades (4.9% CAGR from 2022 2025)
  • » Favorable supply dynamics: relatively old fleet, low orderbook, manageable newbuild deliveries and negative net fleet growth prospect (0.2% CAGR 2022-2025)

  • » Environmental regulations: The decarbonization framework will become stricter, tightening supply due to increased slow-steaming and more retrofits leading to more yard downtime.

  • » Geo-political developments: Countries will continue to look for resilience in supply chains that might hurt Chinese export growth while competing economies are benefiting already from these developments, mitigating the overall impact on TEU-miles.
  • » Cascading: Cascading is inevitable, but larger vessels will find it increasingly difficult to call at ports without constraints, requiring feeder services.
  • » Intra-regional trades: Relative outperformance of intra-regional trades in connection with a relatively lower orderbook to fleet is expected to keep modern, fuel-efficient units in demand during the downturn.

CREATING SHAREHOLDER VALUE ACROSS CYCLES

SECOND-HAND INVESTMENTS

  • » 88 vessels acquired for USD ~1bn (avg. USD ~12m per vessel)
  • » 2x Scrubber fitted well-known feeder-designs: 1x 3,400 TEU (2010-built) & 1x 2,800 TEU (2007-built) for USD ~34m

NEWBUILDINGS & ECO VESSELS

  • » 4 NBs ordered for USD ~222m with an EBITDA backlog of USD ~281m
  • » 2x 5,500 TEU dual-fuel methanol ready and 2x 1,300 dual-fuel methanol vessels
  • » 5x modern eco-vessels: 4x 1,800 TEU (2019-built) & 1x 2,200 TEU (2015-built) for USD 136.4m

  • » 26 vessels sold for USD ~508m (avg. USD ~20m per vessel)

  • » Disposal of older and less efficient tonnage
  • » Final dissolvement of JV to simplify corporate structure
