Total income for the Wilh. Wilhelmsen Holding ASA group (referred to as Wilhelmsen or group) was USD 224 million in the fourth quarter of 2018. This was a 5% increase from the previous quarter, reflecting a temporary high activity level within the supply services business segment.
EBITDA was USD 29 million for the quarter, down 12% from the previous quarter. Maritime services had a positive development in EBITDA, while contribution from supply services was down.
Share of profits from associates was USD 3 million, of which USD 1 million related to Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA.
Change in fair value of financial assets was negative with USD 61 million for the quarter, mainly due to an impairment loss related to the investment in Survitec. Value was also down for other investments.
Other financial items were a net expense of USD 17 million, of which most related to maritime services.
Other comprehensive income for the quarter was a loss of USD 42 million, primarily related to currency translation differences on non-USD assets.
Total comprehensive income, including net profit and other comprehensive income, attributable to owners of the parent was a loss of USD 78 million in the fourth quarter.
Total assets were down 4% in the fourth quarter, mainly due to reduced value of financial assets.
A net loss for the period also reduced equity attributable to owners of the parent with 5%, to USD 1 821 million. As of 31 December 2018, the group equity ratio was 65%.

Cash and cash equivalents were USD 141 million at the end of the fourth quarter. This was down USD 34 million from the previous quarter, mainly due to reduced cash in the holding and investment segment.
Total interest-bearing debt was USD 533 million by the end of the quarter, a reduction of USD 50 million from the previous quarter. The main reason was reduced debt within the holding and investment segment.
During the quarter, Wilhelmsen paid dividend of USD 11 million (NOK 2.00 per share).
2018 was the first full year with the present corporate structure. The accounting effect from changes in the group financial reporting, which took place in 2017, will need to be adjusted for when assessing year-over-year development. This includes full consolidation of NorSea Group in the new supply services segment, reclassification of Wilh. Wilhelmsen ASA prior to the Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA merger as discontinued operation, and reclassification of Hyundai Glovis as financial investment.
Total income for Wilhelmsen was USD 871 million in 2018, an increase of 10% from the previous year. The increase was due to full year consolidation of NorSea Group, which was only partly offset by previous year net reclassification gain. Income for the maritime services segment was stable.
Group EBITDA came in at USD 78 million for the year, down 60%. Adjusting for non-recurring items, EBITDA was up, mainly due to full year consolidation of NorSea Group.

Maritime services EBITDA was USD 42 million in 2018. When adjusting for M&A expenses related to the abandoned Drew acquisition, EBITDA was up 6% for the year. A weak first quarter was followed by a gradual improvement in underlying performance. This was supported by increased sale of marine products, new vessels on management, and positive effects from ongoing improvement initiatives.
The new supply services segment contributed with EBITDA of USD 51 million for the year. An increase in Norwegian offshore activities and a business restructuring had a positive effect on results, as well as logistics services for the NATO exercise Trident Juncture which took place during the second half of the year.
The holding and investments segment had a negative EBITDA of USD 14 million, mainly related to net corporate cost. This was an improvement from previous year when adjusting for last year net reclassification gain.
Share of profit from associates was USD 36 million for the year, of which Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA contributed with USD 23 million. For Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA, realised synergies and a positive development in underlying volumes were offset by reduced contractual volumes, higher bunker cost and lower rates.
Change in fair value financial assets was negative with USD 116 million for the year. The loss followed a USD 61 million impairment of the Survitec investment and a USD 53 million reduction in the market value of the investment in Hyundai Glovis.
Other financials were a net expense of USD 41 million in 2018. Interest and dividend income contributed positively, but was more than offset by interest expenses and a net loss on current financial investments, financial instruments and currencies.
Tax was included with an income of USD 12 million, mainly related to maritime services.
Net profit after tax and minority interests was a loss of USD 69 million in 2018 compared with a USD 64 million loss in 2017. Other comprehensive income was also negative, resulting in a total comprehensive income to owners of the parents of minus USD 119 million for the year 2018.

Total income from maritime services was USD 141 million in the fourth quarter. This was in line with the third quarter, but a 6% reduction when compared with the corresponding period last year.
EBITDA was USD 20 million for the quarter. This was up 6% from the previous quarter, and up 10% from the corresponding period last year when adjusting for previous year non-recurring cost related to the abandoned Drew acquisition.
Total financial items were a net expense of USD 60 million, mainly due to a negative change in fair value of Survitec Group and a net loss from financial instruments. Tax was an income of USD 17 million for the quarter, following a positive adjustment in deferred tax assets.
The quarter ended with a net loss after non-controlling interests of USD 28 million.
Wilhelmsen Ships Service is a global provider of standardised product brands and service solutions to the maritime industry, focusing on marine products, marine chemicals, maritime logistics and ships agency. Ships service is fully owned by Wilhelmsen.
Total income for ships service was stable when compared with the third quarter. A seasonal increase in non-marine chemicals compensated for lower marine product sales. When compared with the corresponding period last year, income was down 6% following reduced sales in all business divisions.
EBITDA was stable for the quarter.
Wilhelmsen Ship Management provides full technical management, crewing and related services for all major vessel types. Ship management is fully owned by Wilhelmsen.
Total income for ship management was up 6% from the third quarter. The increase followed a steady inflow of new vessels on management during the second half. When compared with the corresponding period last year, income was down 4%.
EBITDA was stable for the quarter.
This includes Wilhelmsen Insurance Services (fully owned by Wilhelmsen), Survitec Group (owned ~20%) and certain corporate activites. Survitec Group is reported as financial assets.
The quarter included a USD 48 million impairment of the Survitec investment. The reduction in fair value follows lower than expected results in 2018 and related downward adjustments in future earnings estimates. By the end of the quarter, the investment in Survitec Group was included with a net asset value of USD 27 million in the Wilhelmsen group accounts.
Wilhelmsen Insurance Services had a steady performance in line with the last three quarters, and with total income and EBITDA above the corresponding period last year.

Total income from supply services was USD 82 million in the fourth quarter. This was 15% up from the previous quarter and an increase of 44% when compared with the corresponding period last year.
EBITDA came in at USD 13 million, down 27% from the third quarter, but up 51% from the corresponding period last year.
Net profit after minority interests was USD 1 million for the quarter. Share of profit from associates and other financial income/(expenses) were at normal levels, but an impairment loss in NorSea Group had a negative impact on the profit.
NorSea Group provides supply bases and integrated logistics solution to the offshore industry. Wilhelmsen owns ~75,2% of NorSea Group (40% ownership until 26 September and ~74,2% as per 31 December 2017). NorSea Group is fully consolidated in the Wilhelmsen's accounts from end of the third quarter 2017.
Total income for NorSea Group was USD 79 million in the fourth quarter, up 13% from the third quarter and up 53% from the corresponding period last year. Income from operating activities was lifted by services for the NATO exercise Trident Juncture, offsetting a seasonal slowdown within offshore. Income from infrastructure and facilities was at a stable level.
Operating profit was down for the quarter, partly due to a USD 4 million impairment loss on an investment.
This includes WilNor Governmental Services (owned 51% directly and 49% through NorSea Group) and certain minor supply services activities.
In connection with the NATO exercise, Trident Juncture 2018, WilNor Governmental Services has purchased goods and services on behalf of the Norwegian defence authorities equal to USD 129 million, of which USD 78 million was in the fourth quarter. This has been accounted for on a net basis in the income statement.

The holding and investments segment reported a net loss of USD 13 million in the fourth quarter. The negative result followed a fair value loss from the investments in Hyundai Glovis and Qube Holdings, and a net loss on current financial investments. The USD 1 million share of profit in Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA reflected a positive development in EBITDA, which was more than offset by increased financial cost and accumulated negative effect from changes in fair value of a put/call option.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA is a global provider of ocean and landbased logistics services towards car and ro-ro customers, and is listed on Oslo Børs. Wilhelmsen owns ~37,8% of the company, which is reported as associate in Wilhelmsen's accounts.
Total income for Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA was USD 1 022 million in the fourth quarter, a 1% redcution from both the previous quarter and the corresponding period last year. Ocean volumes were marginally up from the third quarter, but below last year levels due to reduced contracted auto volumes. The high and heavy share was down from the previous quarter, but remained above last year level. For land-based operations, income continued up from last year, following the Keen Transport and Syngin acquisitions and full operations at the Melbourne terminal.
Reported EBITDA was USD 168 million in the fourth quarter, up 10% from the third quarter, but down 6% when compared with the corresponding period last year. Increased fuel cost compensation from customers and realised gains from a new performance improvement program lifted EBITDA from the previous quarter. When compared with the previous year, reduced Hyundai Motor Group volumes and lower rates continued to outweight positive volume and cargo mix development and realised synergies.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA reported a net profit of USD 45 million for the quarter.
Wilhelmsen's share of profit in Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA was USD 1 million in the fourth quarter. The share of profit included the accumulated effect from changes in fair value of the EUKOR put/call option in Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA. Excluding adjustments related to previous periods, Wilhelmsen's share of profit from Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA would have been USD 20 million in the fourth quarter.
Treasure ASA holds a 12.04% ownership interest in Hyundai Glovis, and is listed on Oslo Børs. Wilhelmsen owns ~72,7% of Treasure ASA (~73,2% when adjusting for shares owned by Treasure ASA). Hyundai Glovis is from 4 April 2017 reported as financial assets in the Wilhelmsen's accounts.
Change in fair market value of the shareholding in Hyundai Glovis was negative with USD 6 million for the quarter. The market value at the end of the fourth quarter was USD 523 million.
During the quarter, Treasure ASA bought 1.45 million own shares in the market, reducing net outstanding shares to 218.55 million. Wilhelmsen maintained a holding of 160 million shares in Treasure ASA.
Financial investments include cash and cash equivalents, current financial investments and other financial assets held by the parent and fully owned subsidiaries.
Change in fair market value of the shareholdings in Qube Holdings and other financial assets was a loss of USD 7 million for the quarter. The market value at the end of the fourth quarter was USD 100 million.
The current financial investment portfolio held by Wilhelmsen was USD 88 million by the end of the fourth quarter. The portfolio primarily included listed equities and investment-grade bonds. Net income from investment management was a loss of USD 4 million for the quarter.
Focus on improving the operating margin, strengthening profitability and growing the business will remain. Continued performance improvement initiatives are expected to have a positive impact on operating margin.
Logistics services related to a NATO exercise did partly offset a seasonal reduction in offshore activities towards the end of 2018. While a gradual uplift in offshore activities is expected to continue into 2019, the first quarter will be impacted by an expected reduction in activity level during the winter season.
Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA maintains a balanced view on the prospects for the company. However, there is increased uncertainty around the volume outlook given weaker auto sales in certain markets towards the end of 2018. A new two-year performance improvement programme is expected to support profitability.
Since the beginning of 2019, the market value of the group's investments has increased.
Holding/other activities includes general holding activities and certain non-financial investments, including Dolittle AS (50% owned), Massterly AS (50%) and Raa Labs AS (50%).
Underlying income and EBITDA were at normal levels for the quarter.
The digital start-up Raa Labs was launched in November, with Wilhelmsen as a 50% owner.
The board expects a stable development of underlying operating performance, but with normal seasonal variations.
Wilhelmsen's exposure towards global trade, and potential introduction of further tariffs and restrictions, continues to create uncertainties. Wilhelmsen retains its robustness to meet such eventualities.
Lysaker, 15 February 2019 The board of directors of Wilh. Wilhelmsen Holding ASA
Forward-looking statements presented in this report are based on various assumptions. These assumptions were reasonable when made, but as assumptions are inherently subject to uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict.

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:
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 December 2018 are liquid investment grade bonds (analogous for 2017).
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.
The new IFRS 16 Leasing standard is effective from 1 January 2019. The standard will significantly change how the company accounts for its lease contracts for land, buildings and equipment currently accounted for as operating leases. Virtually all leases will be brought into the balance sheet increasing the groups assets and liabilities, in addition to affecting income statement figures. This note summarizes the expected impact on the financial reporting of Wilhelmsen group from implementing the new standard. According to the company's existing loan agreements, the new standard will not result in breach of debt covenants.
The company 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-ofuse asset will be presented for these contracts which previously were reported as operating leases.
Implementation effect Recognition and Measurement Approach on Transition Wilhelmsen group will apply 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.
As of 1 January 2019, the lease liabilities will be measured at the present value of remaining lease payments, discounted using the incremental borrowing rate at such date. The right-of-use assets will be 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.

Expected future impact on the income and cash flow statement.
IFRS 16 Leasing will have a significant impact on the income statement when implemented in 2019. The estimated reduction of annual lease expense gives an improvement of EBITDA in the range of approximately USD 40 million. Annual depreciation expense of leased assets will increase approximately USD 35 million. Annual net interest expense will increase approximately USD 12 million. In the cash flow statement, operating cash flows will increase and financing cash flows will decrease as the lease payments will be classified as financial rather than operational. It
is expected that IFRS 16 will be implemented in the reporting from the operating segments. The actual impact upon implementation may change as a result of changed interest rates, signing of new lease contracts, re-assessment of renewal options and re-assessment of onerous leases. The impact may also change if new information and guidance becomes known before the group presents its first consolidated financial statements using the new standard.

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.
No material events occured between the balance sheet date and the date when the accounts were presented providing new information about the conditions prevailing on the balance sheet date.
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.
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.

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.
Net interest-bearing debt (NIBD) is defined as total interest bearing debt (Noncurrent interest-bearing debt and Current interest-bearing debt) less Cash and cash equivalenets and Current financial investments.
Equity ratio is defined as Total equity as a percent of Total assets.
