IFRS Figures: The figures in these columns have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standard (IFRS) issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (IASB) as adopted by the EU and have not been reviewed by the statutory auditor.
Proportionate Consolidated Figures: The figures in these columns show joint ventures applying the proportionate consolidation method instead of applying the equity method and have not been reviewed by the statutory auditor.
Cash Flow from operations (EBITDA) as per proportionate consolidation method for the first quarter 2020 is USD 30.8 million (USD 13.6 million for first quarter 2019).
The EBIT for the first quarter of 2020 was USD 16.3 million compared to USD 0.3 million in the first quarter of 2019. The strong improvement of the EBIT is due to the full contribution of TFLNG during the quarter and to improved LPG rates.
The net result of USD 16.7 million includes an unrealised exchange difference of USD 12.2 million on the NOK 650 million unsecured Bond, calculated based on the USD / NOK exchange rate of 10,5057 at 31 March 2020.
The net financial debt at 31 March 2020 amounted to USD 527.6 million compared to USD 605.3 million at 31 March 2019.

We refer to our press release dated 26 March 2020.
The COVID-19 virus and the subsequent energy demand destruction together with the volatility of oil price add more uncertainty in the world. Several operational measures on-shore and on-board have been taken by EXMAR to ensure the safety and wellbeing of our personnel and the continuity of our business operations. The majority of our ships are currently operating under medium to long-term contracts. The effect of the COVID-19 pandemic is foreseen to be limited for EXMAR's results in 2020 but the situation is closely monitored.
It is EXMAR's priority to preserve the health and safety of its shareholders, employees and stakeholders. Due to the exceptional COVID-19 situation, it has been decided in accordance to the Royal Decree of 9 April 2020 to modify the participation modalities regarding the Ordinary General Meeting to be held on Tuesday 19 May 2020. The meeting will be held without physical participation of the shareholders.
The new participation modalities will be available on www.exmar.be as from 5 May 2020. Holders of registered shares will be informed by separate letter.
