The Company remains disciplined when it comes to pricing and selection of T&I projects that we tender for. Whereas we are somewhat frustrated by the delays in contract awards as compared to developers' previous plans, we are confident that they soon will be forced to conclude to safeguard the overall project development plans. Shareholders should note that none of the tenders in which the Company has participated have to date been awarded or concluded. This means that all contract opportunities maintain their full upside potential for the Company, and we expect several of these projects to be declared and concluded within reasonable time.
Following the Company's entrance of new segments within offshore wind, this requires increasing the number of staff to meet our efforts to build industrial competency and franchise value. This to cover the many aspects within administration, tendering activity, and project management and execution of the newbuilds and installation projects. The Company expects to have an average of 65 office-based staff in 2021, compared to an average of 45 office-based staff in 2020.
Management is increasingly confident that the timing for entering this market is exactly right, as it will be characterised by tightness on the supply side for several years. Further, it becomes increasingly clear that the Company has secured favourable shipbuilding contracts for its new-buildings. Alfa Lift, which was contracted for \$190 million in 2018 is one example. Another is VIND 1 where the turn-key shipbuilding contract at \$231 million compares favourably with recently announced shipbuilding contract for a slightly larger unit at \$330 million. The added one turbine set that the latter unit can carry does not in management's view provide a satisfactory return for the added investment cost.
1 Earnings before interest, taxation, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") is a non-IFRS measure and represents the same figure as Operating profit (loss) before depreciation and amortisation expenses in the Statement of Comprehensive income.

The Group's operating revenue was \$11.7 million in Q1 2021, up from \$8.9 million in Q4 2020. The increase is mainly due to improved utilization of the fleet, which increased from 71% in Q4 2020 to 90% in Q1 2021, and a positive development in pricing. The Group's EBITDA increased from negative \$0.8 million in Q4 2020 to negative \$0.1 million in Q1 2021. Effect of IFRS 15 adjustment on EBITDA was negative \$0.8 million in Q1 2021 compared to positive \$0.1 million in Q4 2020.
Net financial income decreased from \$0.6 million in Q4 2020 to negative \$0.1 million in Q1 2021.
The Group's total assets amounted to \$297.4 million at 31 March 2021, up from \$267.7 million at 31 December 2020. The increase is mainly due to investments under construction contracts.
Total equity decreased during the quarter, from \$233.7 million on 31 December 2020 to \$229.5 million on 31 March 2021.
Net cash flow from operating activities was \$3.9 million in Q1 2021. Net cash flow from financing activities was positive \$21.8 million and mainly relates to drawdown from the revolving credit facility. \$24.2 million were used in investment activities this quarter, mainly payments under contracts for vessel construction. Net change in cash and cash equivalents from 31 December 2020 to 31 March 2021 was positive \$1.5 million. Cash and cash equivalents at the end of Q1 2021 were \$16.3 million.
Total undrawn amount on the revolving credit facility was \$28.0 million on 31 March 2021.

The Group's wholly owned ship owing company OHT Alfa Lift AS has received and accepted a firm offer, subject to satisfactory documentation, for a \$135.0 million Senior Secured Green ECA Credit Facility. The facility is for the post-delivery financing of the wind foundation installation vessel Alfa Lift. The Facility is to be drawn upon delivery of the mentioned vessel. The facility has a five-year term and a 12-year repayment profile. DNB Bank ASA is Bookrunner and Coordinator, and together with Sparebank 1 SR-Bank ASA mandated lead arranger. Further, the Norwegian Export Credit Agencies GIEK and Eksportkreditt are supporting the facility, their tranche is estimated to \$82.6 million.
The Group has been certified to ISO45001:2018, the Occupational Health and Safety Management standard, by DNV. This complements the previously awarded certificates for ISO9001:2015 and ISO14001:2015.
The Annual General Meeting of OHT ASA was held on 20 May 2021. All proposals on the agenda were adopted in accordance with the Board of Directors' proposal. The minutes from the Annual General Meeting are made available on the Company's webpages.

The Company has continued to avoid major operational disruptions from the Covid-19 pandemic, with delayed and cumbersome crew change procedures and restrictions on travelling being the only negative effects.
All the vessels in the fleet, Falcon, Eagle, Osprey, Hawk and Albatross have traded in the spot market in Q1 2021, transporting liftboat/jack-up barges, livestock carrier and drydocking and transportation of jack-up rigs. The spot market has continued to be heavily affected by the second wave of the pandemic through hesitation in clients' willingness to execute their transportation requirements due to travel restrictions and project delays, resulting in continued pressure on prices.
Voyages performed in Q1 2021 fall into the following categories:
On a 12-month rolling basis, the renewables share accounts for 57%.
The utilization for Q1 2021 stands at 90%.
Ship operating expenses have been recorded at an average of \$9,413 per day year to date, which is in line with the budget.
Following completion of the exhaust gas scrubber installation program in Q1 2020, all five transportation vessels are fitted with scrubbers. Operationally, the scrubbers have performed with minimal technical issues. The savings recorded between actual price paid for High Sulphur Fuel Oil (HSFO) compared with what the cost would have been for the mandatory Low Sulphur Fuel Oil 0.5% (LSFO) if scrubbers had not been installed is \$8.9 million against a total scrubber investment of \$11.4 million. This corresponds to a payback of 78% so far.
The Dogger Bank A and B projects continue in the detail design phase and generally delivering good progress. The scope of work includes transport and installation of 190 monopiles and transition pieces from Q3 2022 to early 2024. During Q1 2021, we have progressed the documentation of a number of installation steps including monopiles and transition pieces. A substantial subcontract for the provision of a large piling hammer with associated services was placed with Menck GmbH. Other subcontracts for grillage and lifting tools have been placed or are imminent. There have been no unwanted incidents on the project to date. The relationship with the client remains good and constructive.
Construction of Alfa Lift progresses at CMHI's yard in Jiangsu, China. The vessel was successfully floated out from the drydock in late February and the fourth and final payment milestone prior to delivery (10%) was fulfilled. Work now focuses on machining the flange to connect with the main crane as well as remaining hot works, painting and electrical works as well as mechanical completion and commissioning activities. Certain disciplines are somewhat behind schedule, but the shipyard is working on a recovery plan to ensure timely delivery. Nevertheless, we expect the vessel to remain at the shipyard in Q1 2022 for completion activities including the installation of mission equipment as this is considered optimum with respect to time and costs.

The main hooks for the Liebherr 3,000t crane have successfully passed a separate overload test at close to 4,000t to eliminate the risk of a repeat of a crane accident that happened at their facilities last year. The central crane machinery module together with the A-frame arrived at the shipyard in China in late April 2021 and was immediately lifted onboard the Alfa Lift. The crane boom and main hooks are expected to follow suit with departure from Germany in late May, as planned.
The main components making up Alfa Lift's mission equipment for monopile installation has been placed with MacGregor, in partnership with Kongsberg Maritime. Fabrication of steel components for the main Upending Frame and Motion Compensated Pile Gripper is ongoing and other elements forming part of the mission equipment are progressing satisfactorily.
The shipbuilding contract for VIND 1, the company's first Wind Turbine Installation Vessel (WTIV), which became effective on 30 November 2020, is in the detailed design phase following completion of basic design. Delivery is scheduled for mid-2023. We are currently in the final phases of working with the shipyard and designer to conclude on selection of main equipment. Focus is on maximizing payload by reducing component and material weights as much as possible, with Variable Deck Load capacity having been improved from 8,750t with a target to reach 10,000t.
The negotiations for a conditional shipbuilding contract for VIND 2 is subject to contract commitments before concluding. Discussions with prospective clients are ongoing.

Our fleet continues to operate in the spot market. We have seen a high number of requests for transportation projects, with 285 received in Q1 2021 versus 248 in Q4 2020 which is sign of ongoing recovery after the second wave in the pandemic. There is a growing share of offshore wind related projects currently being tendered for execution late 2021 to 2027, dominated by transportation of jackets, monopiles and transition pieces from Asia to Europe and monopiles/transition pieces from Europe to the US.
In O&G, the ongoing pandemic subdued oil prices up until recently have made E&P companies slash their exploration budgets, resulting in lower drilling activity. The number of rig moves is therefore low. However there seems to be some light at the end of the tunnel with the offshore drilling activity expected to pick up in 2022. One of the few positive segments within O&G is the decommissioning market, where we see several interesting leads. Other industries such as marine, dredging and heavy construction continue to generate a satisfactory number of requests.
Another positive O&G segment is the gas production expansion in the Middle East mainly off Qatar and Abu Dhabi. The investments in new field infrastructure create a string of transport requirements for offshore platform components from South East Asian fabrication yards to the region from as early as Q3 2021 until well into 2023. OHT will be well placed to win a fair share of these transportation opportunities, building on similar work successfully completed for NOC`s in Qatar in 2019.
Starting from Q2 2021 we foresee a material reduction of available semisubmersible tonnage in the market due to our competitors' backlog, occupying their vessels, which may last up until Q2 2023. The mentioned backlog relates to modules for LNG plants and refineries, a type of cargo which have been absent for some years but which is not targeted by the Company. At times, the supply of tonnage is expected to drop to levels around 50% of today's available world fleet. This will bring OHT in a good position to secure future work not committed to these other carriers yet.
The global market for bottom-fixed offshore wind continues to grow. Rystad Energy are now predicting 250GW installed capacity by 2030, which is a higher level than ever seen before. In the US, the new Administration has fast-tracked the sanctioning of the first industry-scale project – Vineyard 1 – and has also set a target of 30GW installed by 2030. This is about as much as has been installed globally since inception of offshore wind. Taiwan, South Korea, Japan and Poland are other examples of new markets developing at a high pace.
Management is increasingly confident that the company's timing for entering this market is exactly right, as it will be characterised by tightness on the supply side for several years ahead.
The Company's tendering activities for transportation and installation of foundations and turbines have stepped up to new heights in the quarter. Some tenders are going through the second round, others have moved into the clarifications and negotiations phase. No contracts that the Company have bid for have been awarded thus far. This is due to delays as compared to developers' previously stated timelines, and it remains to be seen if contract awards will be seen in Q2. Regardless, a number of contracts need to be placed latest in Q3 for projects to reach other milestones in conjunction with FID or auction participation. All tendering which the Company is involved in is for wind farms in Europe and the US from 2024-2028.
For the many projects planning to start offshore construction in 2024, many developers are gradually realizing that there will be more projects than there are vessels that can effectively perform the installation work. This is particularly relevant for monopile installation, as this activity starts early in the construction phase and there is no longer time to bring newbuilt foundation installation vessels to the market by 2024 unless construction has

already started. With a high likelihood of several projects being forced to delay their development plans, the imbalance of demand and supply of vessels will be pushed into 2025 and beyond.
Within turbine installation, there is a similar situation with 14MW+ turbines set to completely dominate the market from 2025. However, as there is more time before WTG installation commences, there is also time to bring newbuild vessels to the market.
Within Transportation, we expect decreasing pressure on Lump Sum prices in the spot market due to an ease in the short- and medium-term oversupply of capacity. The near-term spot market will be dominated by Marine & Naval, O&G Decommissioning and Other industries. This will continue until major transportation projects to carry modules for LNG plants and refineries as well as offshore wind components will keep our competitors busy over the following 12-24 months starting from mid-2021. However, the increase in crude oil prices exemplified by Brent Spot, from \$45 per barrel as recent as 20 November 2020 to the current \$68 per barrel, should lead to increased transportation demand also from the O&G segment.
Within Offshore Wind, we expect that the next months will be characterized by clarification rounds and negotiation of major T&I contracts with clients. Despite delays in contract awards compared to developers' previously communicated timelines, many are approaching a time when they simply have to make awards to reach other key milestones in their development plans.
The company is in process of preparing for a transfer to the main list of Oslo Stock Exchange (OSE). A standard condition for acceptance to OSE is that the company is fully financed over the next 12 months. The Company therefore initiated an accelerated process to formalise post-delivery financing for Alfa Lift, which as mentioned above early May resulted in a firm offer from Norwegian commercial banks and ECAs. We will continue our efforts to secure remaining financing needs to qualify for the mentioned listing.
The main risk factors which could materially adversely impact the Group's operations and/or financial performance and position are noted on page 12 of OHT ASA's Annual Report 2020.
During the year, management has been mitigating the impacts of the Covid-19 pandemic by monitoring health procedures and adhering to the guidance of the World Health Organization and local authorities. The Group has implemented revised working procedures to reduce the risks associated with Covid-19, including remote working, travel bans, strict crew change procedures, social distancing wherever possible and the use of additional personal protective equipment. There have been no known outbreaks onboard any of our vessels.

We confirm, to the best of our knowledge, that the condensed set of financial statements for the period 1 January 2021 to 31 March 2021 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, and gives a true and fair view of the Group's assets, liabilities, financial position and profit as a whole.
We also confirm, to the best of our knowledge, that the interim management report includes a fair review of important events that have occurred during the first quarter of the financial year and their impact on the set of financial statements, and a description of the main risks and uncertainties going forward.

OHT ASA ("the Company"), organization number 924 695 792, is a Norwegian public limited liability company. The Company and its subsidiaries ("the Group" or "OHT"), is a specialized heavy transportation and installation (T&I) contractor. OHT is the owner and operator of five open deck semi-submersible heavy transportation vessels and has currently under construction a heavy lift semi-submersible installation vessel for installation of foundations for the offshore wind market and a jack-up wind turbine installation vessel. OHT has its head office in Oslo, Norway. The shares of the Company are traded on Oslo Stock Exchanges' marketplace Euronext Growth (Merkur Market).
These interim financial statements are prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.
The condensed consolidated interim financial reporting should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for OHT ASA for the year ended 31 December 2020, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS, as adopted by the EU.
In preparing these interim financial statements, management has made judgements and estimates that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates. The effect of a change in an accounting estimate is recognized in profit or loss in the period where the estimate is revised or in the period of the revision and future periods if the change affects both. The significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those described in the last annual financial statements.
The Group's operating revenue and operating expenses come from operations within the transportation segment only.
The Group is currently working on a project in the offshore wind installation segment under an effective contract with a customer. It is expected that services related to wind installation will be reported as a separate segment when revenue is first recognized. Expenses in relation to the contract are capitalized as costs to fulfil contract. Revenue will be recognized from the start of the installation phase of the project.
