Outlook

Maritime services

For ships services, the reduction in global economic activity due to measures taken to contain spread of covid-19 is expected to reduce operating income for the rest of 2020. The largest impact will be from reduction in cruise activities, representing 10-15% of operating income.

For ship management, development in operating income will remain sensitive to any change in ships on management. Reduced global shipping activities due to reduced trade may result in a reduction in ships on full technical management and an increase in lay-up activities.

Supply services

The recent reduction in offshore exploration activities due to fall in the oil price is expected to have a negative impact on NorSea Group income for the rest of 2020. The final impact will depend on measures implemented by the various parties involved and is highly uncertain. Present estimates indicate a drop in NorSea Group income for the rest of 2020.

Other holding and investments activities

Holding/other activities include general holding activities and certain non-financial investments, including Raa Labs AS (100% owned), Massterly AS (50%) and Dolittle AS (46%).

Income and EBITDA were broadly at normal levels for the quarter.

Holding and investments

Wallenius Wilhelmsen will in the near term be impacted by a sharp drop in volumes driven by the impact of measures taken globally to fight the covid-19 pandemic. Significant measures are taken to reduce cost and strengthen cash flow, including recycle, lay-up, idling and slow-steaming of ships.

Investments accounted for on a mark-to-market basis will be impacted by an expected continued volatile market.

Wilhelmsen group

The spread of covid-19 and the measures undertaken to contain it have reduced global economic activity and values. For operating activities, the impact of the difficult market conditions will mainly have an effect from the second quarter onwards.

The extent of future impact on operating income and result and on asset prices remains uncertain. Wilhelmsen retains its robustness and capacity to meet this uncertainty.

Note 7 - Leases

The IFRS 16 Leasing standard was effective from 1 January 2019. The standard significantly changed how the group accounts for its lease contracts for land, buildings and equipment previously accounted for as operating leases. All leases are brought into the balance sheet increasing the groups assets and liabilities, in addition to affecting income statement figures. This note summarizes the impact on the financial reporting of Wilhelmsen group from implementing the new standard.

The Lease Contracts

The group has a number of leases related to property and land that account for the significant part of the lease liability. The group also leases vechicle and equipment. A lease liability and right-of-use asset are presented for these contracts which previously were reported as operating leases.

Recognition and Measurement Approach on Transition

The group applied IFRS 16 retrospectively with recognition of the cumulative implementation effect recognised at the date of initial application 1 January 2019. By doing this, comparative financial information shall not be restated, but the cumulative effect of initially applying this standard shall be reflected as an

adjustment to the opening balance. At the time of transition, leases entered under IAS 17 will not be reassessed. In calculating the present value of lease payments, the group uses the incremental borrowing rate at the lease commencement date if the interest rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable. To arrive at the incremental borrowing rate the group applies the respective country's (economic environment) risk free rate for the term corresponding to the lease term, adjusted for own credit risk.

The right-of-use assets are measured at an amount equal to the lease liability. The standard has provided options on scope and exemptions and below the group's policy choices are described:

  • The standard will not be applied to leases of intangible assets and these will continue to be recognized in accordance with IAS 38 Intangible assets.

  • All leases deemed short-term by the standard are exempt from reporting. - All leases deemed to be of low value by the standard are exempt from reporting.

  • Non-lease components shall be separated from the lease component in all vessel leases. For other lease agreements, the group will apply a materiality threshold when evaluating separation.

Implementation effect

The net effect of implementation of IFRS 16 at January 1, 2019 is presented below.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (over-the-counter contracts) are based on third party quotes. These quotes use the maximum number of observable market rates for price discovery. Specific valuation techniques used by financial counterparties (banks) to value financial derivatives include:

  • Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar derivatives

  • The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the net present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves

  • The fair value of interest rate swap option (swaption) contracts is determined using observable volatility, yield curve and time-to-maturity parameters at the balance sheet date, resulting in a swaption premium. Options are typically valued by applying the Black-Scholes model.

  • The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date, with the resulting value discounted back to net present value

  • The fair value of foreign exchange option contracts is determined using observable forward exchange rates, volatility, yield curves and time-to-maturity parameters at the balance sheet date, resulting in an option premium. Options are typically valued by applying the Black-Scholes model.

The carrying value less impairment provision of receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the group for similar financial derivatives.

The fair values, except for bond debt, are based on cash flows discounted using a

rate based on market rates including margins and are within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of the bond debt are based on quoted prices and are also classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy due to limited trading in an active market.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis.

The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the group is the current mid price. These instruments are included in level 1. Instruments included in level 1 at the end of March 2020 are liquid investment grade bonds (analogous for 2019).

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (over-the-counter contracts) are based on third party quotes (Mark-to-Market). These quotes use the maximum number of observable market rates for price discovery. The different techniques typically applied by financial counterparties (banks) were described above. These instruments - FX and IR derivatives - are included in level 2.

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the derivatives is in level 3. Primarily illiquid investment funds and structured notes are included in level 3.

Note 14 - Related party transactions

WWH delivers services to the Wallenius Wilhelmsen group. These include primarily in-house services such as canteen, post, switchboard and rent of office facilities.

Generally, Shared Services are priced using a cost plus 5% margin calculation, in accordance with the principles set out in the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines and are delivered according to agreements that are renewed annually.

Note 15 - Contingencies

The size and global activities of the group dictate that companies in the group will be involved from time to time in disputes and legal actions.

The group is not aware of any financial risk associated with disputes and legal actions which are not largely covered through insurance arrangements.

Note 16 - Events occurring after the balance sheet date

The outbreak of Coronavirus will still continue to affect economic conditions and the demand for Maritime Services and Supply services regionally and globally. The ultimate severity of the covid-19 outbreak is still uncertain on the group's future operations and the health of our employees.

No material events occured between the balance sheet date and the date when

In addition Maritime Services have several transactions with associates. The contracts governing such transactions are based on commercial market terms.

Nevertheless, any such disputes/actions which might exist are of such a nature that they will not significantly affect the group's financial position.

the accounts were presented providing new information about the conditions prevailing on the balance sheet date.

Notes 17 Alternative performance measures

This section describes non-GAAP financial alternative performance measures (APM) that may be used in the quarterly and annual reports and related presentations.

The following measures are not defined nor specified in the applicable financial reporting framework of IFRS. They may be considered as non-GAAP financial measures that may include or exclude amounts that are calculated and presented according to the IFRS. These APMs are intended to enhance comparability of the results, balance sheet and cash flows from period to period and it is the Company's experience that these are frequently used by investors, analysts and other parties. Internally, these APMs are used by the management to measure performance on a regular basis. The APMs should not be considered as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with IFRS.

EBITDA is defined as Total income (Operating revenue and gain/(loss) on sale of assets) adjusted for Operating expenses. EBITDA is used as an additional measure of operational profitability, excluding the impact from financial items, taxes, depreciation and amortization.

EBITDA adjusted is defined as EBITDA excluding certain income and/or cost items which are not regarded as part of the underlying operational performance for the period. The Company do not report EBITDA adjusted on a regular basis, but may use it on a case by case basis to better explain operational performance.

EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA as a per cent of of Total income.

EBITDA margin adjusted is defined as EBITDA adjusted as a per cent of Total income, with Total income also adjusted for the same income elements as those which have been adjusted for in EBITDA adjusted.

EBIT is defined as Total income (Operating revenue and

gain/(loss) on sale of assets) less Operating expenses, Other gain/loss and depreciation and amortization. EBIT is used as a measure of operational profitability excluding the effects of how the operations were financed, taxed and excluding foreign exchange gains & losses.

EBIT adjusted, EBIT margin and EBIT margin adjusted will, if used, be prepared in the same manner as described under EBITDA.
