Set out below is d'Amico International Shipping Group's structure as at 30 September 2024:


d'Amico International Shipping S.A. (individually the "Company" or "d'Amico International Shipping", and when together with its subsidiaries "DIS", "DIS Group" or "the Group") is an international marine transportation company, part of the d'Amico Società di Navigazione SpA group (the "d'Amico Group"), which traces its origins to 1936. As at 30 September 2024, d'Amico International Shipping controls through d'Amico Tankers d.a.c. (Ireland), its fully owned subsidiary, a fleet of 33.0 vessels, of which 29.0 owned and bareboat vessels (with purchase obligations), with an average age of approximately 9.0 years, compared to an average in the product tankers industry of 13.4 years for MRs (25,000 – 54,999 dwt) and 14.8 for LR1s (55,000 – 84,999 dwt). All DIS' vessels are double-hulled and are primarily engaged in the transportation of refined oil products, providing worldwide shipping services to the major oil companies and trading houses. All the vessels are compliant with IMO (International Maritime Organization) regulations, including MARPOL (the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships), with the requirements of oil-majors and energy-related companies and other relevant international standards. Based on MARPOL/IMO rules, cargoes such as palm oil, vegetable oil and other chemicals can only be transported by vessels that meet certain requirements (IMO Classed). As at 30 September 2024, 81.8% of DIS' controlled fleet was IMO Classed, allowing the Group to transport a large range of products.
DIS' business purpose is to operate, through its main subsidiary d'Amico Tankers d.a.c., a fleet of owned and chartered-in vessels, engaged in the transportation of refined petroleum products and vegetable oils.
DIS Group's revenue4 , amounting to US\$ 384.9 million in the first 9 months of 2024, is mainly generated from the employment, either directly or through its partnerships, of the vessels of its fleet under spot contracts and time charters, for the marine transportation of refined petroleum products. Vessels operating under fixed rate contracts, including time charters, usually provide more steady and predictable cash flows than vessels operating on the spot market. Spot contracts offer the opportunity to maximise DIS Group's revenue during periods of increasing market rates, although they may result in lower earnings than time charters during periods of decreasing rates. This employment mix varies according to prevailing and forecasted market conditions. Gains or losses can also arise from the sale of the vessels in DIS Group's fleet.
DIS Group believes that it benefits from a strong brand name and an established reputation in the international market due to its long operating history and that such a reputation is important in maintaining and strengthening long-term relationships with its partners and existing customers and in developing relationships with new customers. Accountability, transparency, and a focus on quality are pillars of its operations and key to DIS Group's success.
The quality of DIS Group's fleet is preserved through scheduled maintenance programmes, by aiming for exacting standards on owned vessels and by chartering-in vessels from owners who meet high-quality standards.
DIS has a presence in the key maritime centres around the world: Luxembourg, Dublin (Ireland), London (U.K.), Monte Carlo (Monaco), Singapore, New York (USA) and Rome (Italy). The Group provides transportation services employing all its vessels worldwide, rather than in specific geographical areas. DIS believes that its international presence allows it to meet the needs of its international clients in different geographical areas, strengthening the Company's recognition and its brand name worldwide. In addition, through the different opening hours of offices located in several time zones, DIS can continuously monitor its operations and assist its customers.
As at 30 September 2024, DIS employed 635 seagoing personnel and 25 onshore personnel. In addition, through related party contracts, DIS benefits from the services of employees of the d'Amico Group working in the administrative, chartering, operations, sale and purchase and technical departments of d'Amico Shipping Singapore, d'Amico Shipping USA, d'Amico Società di Navigazione SpA, Rudder SAM and d'Amico Shipping UK.
4 Excluding Bareboat charter revenue

The DIS Group controlled as at 30 September 2024, either through ownership or charter arrangements, a modern fleet of 33.0 product tankers (31 December 2023: 36.0 product tankers). DIS Group's product tanker vessels range from approximately 36,000 to 75,000 dwt.
Since 2012, the DIS Group has ordered 22 newbuildings, the last of which was delivered in October 2019. All these newbuildings are fuel-efficient and in compliance with recent environmental legislation. They cater therefore to the high standards required by the Group's oil major customers, in addition to being highly cost effective. In Q2 2024, DIS ordered 4 additional newbuilding vessels, with expected delivery in 2027.
Operating a large fleet enhances the generation of earnings and operating efficiencies, strengthens the Group's ability to advantageously position vessels and improves the fleet's availability and scheduling flexibility, providing DIS with a competitive advantage. In particular, the scale of DIS' operations provides it with the flexibility necessary to enable it to capitalise on favourable spot market conditions to maximise earnings and negotiate favourable contracts with suppliers.

As at 30 September 2024, DIS directly employed 33.0 Vessels: 1 LR1s ('Long Range 1'), 6 MRs ('Medium Range') and 6 Handy-size vessels on term contracts at fixed rates, whilst 5 LR and 15 MR vessels were at the same date employed on the spot market.
d'Amico International Shipping is part of the d'Amico Group, one of the world's leading privately-owned marine transportation companies, with over 80 years of experience in the shipping business, whose ultimate parent company is d'Amico Società di Navigazione S.p.A. (Italy). As at 30 September 2024, the d'Amico Group controlled a wide fleet of owned and chartered-in vessels, of which 33.0 were part of the DIS fleet, operating in the product tanker market. d'Amico International Shipping also benefits from the expertise of the d'Amico Group, which provides technical management services, including crewing and insurance arrangements, as well as safety, quality and environmental services for DIS' vessels.

Along with the most directly comparable IFRS measures, DIS' management regularly uses Alternative Performance Measures, as they provide helpful additional information for readers of its financial statements, indicating how the business has performed over the period, filling the gaps left by the reporting standards. APMs are financial and nonfinancial measures of historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash-flows, other than a financial measure defined or specified in the Group's applicable financial reporting framework and International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS); for this reason they might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measurements under IFRS or GAAP and thus should not be considered substitutes for the information contained in the Group's financial statements. The following section sets out the Group's definitions of used APMs:
A shipping industry standard allowing the comparison of period-to-period net freight revenues, which are not influenced by whether the vessels were employed on Time charters (TC), Voyage charters or Contracts of affreightment (please see Non-Financial APM definitions below). As indicated in the condensed consolidated interim statement of Profit or Loss, it is equal to revenues less voyage costs.
Revenues originating from contracts under which the ship owner is usually paid monthly in advance charter hire at an agreed daily rate for a specified period of time, during which, the charterer is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses (see further in Other definitions).
EBITDA is defined as the result for the period before the impact of taxes, interest, the Group's share of the result of joint ventures and associates – if any, depreciation, and amortization. It is equivalent to the gross operating profit, which indicates the Group's revenues from sales less its cost of the services (transport) sold. EBITDA Margin is defined as EBITDA divided by Time charter equivalent earnings (as described above). DIS believes that EBITDA and EBITDA Margin are useful additional indicators investors can use to evaluate the Group's operating performance.
EBIT is defined as the result for the period before the impact of tax, interest, and the Group's share of the result of joint ventures and associates – if any. It is equivalent to the net operating profit and the Group uses it to monitor its return after operating expenses and the cost of the use of its tangible assets. EBIT Margin is defined as operating profit as a percentage of Time charter equivalent earnings and represents for DIS a suitable measure to show the contribution of the Time-Charter Earnings in covering both fixed and variable costs.
Return on Capital Employed is a profitability ratio which measures how efficiently a company is using its capital. It is calculated dividing the EBIT by the capital employed, that is, by total assets less current liabilities.
Gross capital expenditure, that is the expenditure for the acquisition of fixed assets as well as expenditures capitalised as a result of the intermediate or special surveys of our vessels, or of investments for the improvement of DIS vessels, as indicated under Net acquisition of fixed assets within the cash-flow from investing activities; it gives an indication about the strategic planning (expansion) of the Group (capital intensive industry).
Comprises bank loans and other financial liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents and liquid financial assets or shortterm investments available to service those debt items. The Group believes net indebtedness is relevant to investors as it is a metric on the overall debt situation of a company, indicating the absolute level of non-equity funding of the business. The relevant table in the net indebtedness section within the report on operations, reconciles net debt to the pertinent balance sheet line items.

The standard eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for a lessee; instead, all leases are treated in a similar way to finance leases applying IAS 17. Leases are "capitalised" by recognising the present value of lease payments and showing them either as leased assets (right-of-use assets, RoU) or together with property, plant, and equipment (PPE). Lease items of low value (under US\$ 5 thousand) or for which the lease duration is shorter than one year are excluded from this treatment and are expensed as incurred. If lease payments are made over time, the company also recognises a financial liability representing its obligation to make future lease payments. The most significant effect is an increase in lease assets(or PPE) and financial liabilities, leading to changes in key financial metrics derived from balance sheet data.
For companies with material off-balance sheet leases, IFRS 16 changes the nature of the expenses related to those leases: the straight-line operating lease expenses (time-charter-in) are replaced with a depreciation charge for the lease asset (included within operating costs) and an interest expense on the lease liability (included within finance costs).
Total theoretical number of days a vessel is available for sailing during a period. It provides an indication of the Group's fleet earnings potential during a period, which takes into account the date of delivery to and redelivery from the Group of the vessels in its fleet (please refer also to the Key figures, other operating measures).
Ratio indicating how many available vessel days are already covered by fixed rate contracts (time charter contracts or contracts of affreightment). It provides an indication of how exposed the Group is to changes in the freight market during a certain period (please refer to Time charter equivalent earnings in the Summary of the results in the third quarter and nine months of 2024).
Daily spot rate refers to daily time-charter equivalent earnings (please refer to definition below) generated by employing DIS' vessels on the spot market (or on a voyage basis) and daily TC rate refers to daily time-charter earnings generated by employing DIS' vessels on 'time-charter' contracts (please refer to the Summary of the results in the third quarter and nine months of 2024).
Means the period in which a vessel is unable to perform the services for which it is immediately required under a time charter. Off-hire periods can include days spent on repairs, dry-docking and surveys, whether or not scheduled. It can help to explain changes in time-charter equivalent earnings between different periods (please refer to Revenues, in the Summary of the results in the third quarter and nine months of 2024).
A measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel or of DIS' fleet. DIS' method of calculating time charter equivalent earnings per day is consistent with industry standards and is determined by dividing voyage revenues (net of voyage expenses) by on-hire days for the relevant time period. Time charter equivalent earnings per day is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance, since it is unaffected by the changes in the mix of charter contracts (i.e. spot charters, time charters and contracts of affreightment) through which the vessels are employed. It allows a comparison of the Group's performance with industry peers and market benchmarks (please refer to Key figures).
The number of vessels equivalent in a period is equal to the sum of the products of the total available vessel days over that period for each vessel and the participation of the Group (direct or indirect) in that vessel, divided by the number of calendar days in that period. It provides an indication of the Group's fleet size and earnings potential over a period (please refer to Key figures).

A contract type under which the ship owner is usually paid monthly in advance charter hire at an agreed daily rate for a specified period of time, during which the charterer is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses (please refer to note 6). A bareboat charter is also known as a "demise charter" or a "time charter by demise".
A contract for the hire of a vessel for a specified period of time or to carry cargo from a loading port to a discharging port. The contract for a charter is commonly called a charter party and there are three main types of such contracts, a bareboat charter party, a voyage charter party and time charter party (refer to definitions in this section).
An agreement between an owner and a charterer which obliges the owner to provide a vessel to the charterer to move specific quantities of cargo, at a fixed rate, over a stated time period but without designating specific vessels or voyage schedules, thereby providing the owner with greater operating flexibility than with voyage charters alone.
The company that controls a vessel, replacing the registered owner, either through a time-charter or a bareboat charter.
For DIS these usually refer to revenues generated through time-charter contracts or contracts of affreightment (please refer to definitions in this section). Bareboat charter contracts are also usually fixed rate contracts but DIS controls rather than employs vessels through such contracts.
A contract type through which a registered owner (owner) or disponent owner (please refer to definition in this section) is paid freight for transporting cargo from a loading port to a discharging port. The charterer pays the vessel owner or disponent owner on a per-ton or lump-sum basis. The payment for the use of the vessel is known as freight. The owner or disponent owner is responsible for paying voyage expenses. Typically, the charterer is responsible for any delay at the loading or discharging ports. A ship-owner or bareboat charterer operating its vessel on voyage charter is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses.
Is a contract type through which the registered owner (owner) or disponent owner (please refer to definition within this section) is paid usually monthly in advance charter hire at an agreed daily rate for a specified period of time (usually a fixed rate contract). With such contracts the charterer is responsible for paying the voyage expenses and additional voyage insurance. A ship-owner or bareboat charterer operating its vessel on time-charter is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses.

In general, tanker market conditions remained relatively firm throughout the third quarter of the year. While average tanker earnings softened in August, the markets showed signs of strengthening in September, heading into the seasonally stronger part of the year. Recent months have seen markets under short-term pressures as seasonal oil trade weakness was compounded by softer Chinese crude imports, reduced exports of Russian products due to refinery outages, and poor refinery margins.
More specific, product tanker markets also declined in August, with average earnings falling to their lowest level since February 2022, yet still remaining well above the 10-year average. The recent subdued oil demand and soft refinery margins have led to weaker product tanker demand. Meanwhile, an increased influx of crude tankers (VLCCs and Aframax) transporting clean petroleum products has expanded tonnage availability. However, expectations are that this trend will reverse as demand for crude improves going into the final quarter of the year.
In the products sector, deadweight tonnage (dwt) demand is forecast to grow by a further 5.9% (according to Clarksons' September report) this year, marking a fourth consecutive year of robust expansion. Vessel re-routing around the Cape of Good Hope amid disruptions in the Red Sea has provided significant support. Product tanker arrivals in the Gulf of Aden are down by about 70% (according to Affinity Shipping) compared to levels in the fourth quarter of 2023, while arrivals at the Cape of Good Hope have more than doubled.
One area where disruption has eased is in Panama. Water levels in the Panama Canal have slowly increased, and transit restrictions were gradually lifted throughout the first nine months of 2024, leading to a degree of normalisation.
The one-year time-charter rate, always the best indicator of spot market expectations, was assessed at around US\$ 29,250 per day for an eco MR2 tanker at the end of September 2024, a premium of around US\$ 2,750 per day relative to a conventional MR tanker.
In the first 9 months of 2024, DIS recorded a Net profit of US\$ 163.1 million vs. a Net profit of US\$ 148.7 million posted in the same period of 2023. Such positive variance is attributable to a stronger product tanker market relative to the same period of last year. Excluding results on disposal and non-recurring financial items, DIS' Net result would have amounted to US\$ 158.9 million in the first 9 months of 2024, compared with US\$ 153.0 million recorded in the same period of 2023. In Q3 2024, DIS posted a Net profit of US\$ 40.2 million vs. a Net profit of US\$ 48.9 million in the third quarter of last year. Excluding results on disposal and non-recurring financial items, DIS' Net result would have amounted to US\$ 40.5 million in Q3 2024 compared with US\$ 49.4 million in Q3 2023.
In the first 9 months of 2024, DIS generated an EBITDA of US\$ 218.8 million vs. US\$ 213.1 million achieved in the same period of 2023 (Q3 2024: US\$ 57.7 million vs Q3 2023: US\$ 70.4 million), whilst its operating cash flow was positive for US\$ 228.4 million in the first 9 months of 2024 compared with US\$ 224.4 million generated in the same period of last year.
In terms of spot performance, DIS achieved a daily spot rate of US\$ 37,563 in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ 33,434 in the same period of 2023 (Q3 2024: US\$ 29,679 vs Q3 2023: US\$ 31,782), due to a stronger market relative to the same period of last year.
At the same time, 42.4% of DIS' total employment days in the first 9 months of 2024 were covered through 'timecharter' contracts at an average daily rate of US\$ 27,738 (9 months 2023: 27.9% coverage at an average daily rate of US\$ 27,951). A good level of time charter coverage is one of the pillars of DIS' commercial strategy and allows it to mitigate the effects of the spot market volatility, securing a certain level of earnings and cash generation even throughout negative cycles. DIS' total daily average rate (which includes both spot and time-charter contracts) was of US\$ 33,395 in the first 9 months of 2024, compared with US\$ 31,904 achieved in the same period of 2023 (Q3 2024: US\$ 28,602 vs. Q3 2023: US\$ 30,860).

Revenue was US\$ 115.7 million in Q3 2024 (US\$ 136.9 million in Q3 2023) and US\$ 384.9 million in the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ 407.8 million in the same period of last year). The slight decrease in gross revenue compared with the previous year is attributable mainly to the lower exposure to the spot market and to a lower number of equivalent vessels employed compared to the same period of last year. In addition, the percentage of off-hire days in the first 9 months of 2024 (3.5%) was higher than in the same period of the previous year (2.0%), mainly due to the timing of commercial off-hires and dry-docks.
Voyage costs reflect the mix of spot and time-charter employment contracts. These costs, which occur only for vessels employed on the spot market, amounted to US\$ (31.7) million in Q3 2024 and US\$ (90.5) million in the first 9 months of the current year (Q3 2023: US\$ (38.6) million and 9 months 2023: US\$ (106.0) million). The lower costs in the first 9 months of 2024 reflect DIS' lower exposure to the spot market relative to the same period of last year.
Time charter equivalent earnings were of US\$ 83.9 million in Q3 2024 vs. US\$ 98.3 million in Q3 2023 and of US\$ 294.5 million in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ 301.8 million in the same period of 2023. In detail, DIS realized a daily average spot rate of US\$ 29,679 in Q3 2024 compared with US\$ 31,782 in Q3 2023 and of US\$ 37,563 in the first 9 months of 2024 compared with US\$ 33,434 in the same period of last year.
In the first 9 months of 2024, DIS maintained a good level of 'coverage'11 (fixed-rate contracts), securing an average of 42.4% (9 months 2023: 27.9%) of its available vessel days at a daily average fixed rate of US\$ 27,738 (9 months 2023: US\$ 27,951). In addition to securing revenue and supporting the operating cash flow generation, these contracts enabled DIS to strengthen its historical relationships with the main oil majors.
DIS' total daily average TCE (Spot and Time Charter)12 was of US\$ 28,602 in Q3 2024 vs. US\$ 30,860 in Q3 2023, and of US\$ 33,395 in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ 31,904 in the first 9 months of last year.
11 Coverage ratio (%) and daily average covered rate include a bareboat charter out contract on an LR1 vessel owned by d'Amico Tankers d.a.c., inclusive of an assumed daily Opex of US\$ 7,504 (in line with DIS' actual costs), in order to express this bareboat contract in time-charter equivalent terms. The gross revenue of this bareboat contract is reported under 'bareboat charter revenue' in the Income Statement.

Bareboat charter revenue was of US\$ 1.2 million in Q3 2024 and of US\$ 3.7 million in the first 9 months of 2024, in line with the same period of last year; it relates to the bareboat charter out contract started in October 2021 on one of d'Amico Tankers d.a.c.'s LR1 vessels.
Time charter hire costs. IFRS 16 Leases, effective from 1 January 2019, has been adopted by the Company, significantly changing the treatment of leases in the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements. With some exceptions, liabilities for payments on contracts previously classified as operating leases are now discounted at the lessee's incremental borrowing rate, leading to the recognition of a lease liability and a corresponding right of use asset. Therefore, starting from 1 January 2019, 'time-charter hire costs' includes only time-charter contracts whose residual term is shorter than 12 months as at that date or for contracts starting later, whose duration is shorter than 12 months from their commencement date. The application of IFRS16 reduced 'charter hire costs' by US\$ 21.0 million in the first 9 months of 2024 and by US\$ 31.1 million in the same period of 2023, as within the Income Statement, these costs were replaced with other direct operating costs, interest, and depreciation. Excluding the effect of IFRS 16, DIS' 'time-charter hire costs' would have amounted to US\$ (21.0) million in the first nine months of 2024 compared with US\$ (31.1) million in the same period of last year. In the first nine months of 2024 DIS operated a lower number of chartered-in vessels (5.3 equivalent ships) relative to the same period of last year (7.5 equivalent ships).
Other direct operating costs mainly consist of crew, technical and luboil expenses relating to the operation of owned vessels, together with insurance expenses for both owned and chartered-in vessels. The adjustment to 'other direct operating costs' arising from the application of IFRS 16 increases such expenses by US\$ 9.2 million in the first 9 month of 2024 (US\$ 13.5 million increase in the first 9 months of 2023), as within the Income Statement, time-charter hire costs are replaced by other direct operating costs, interest and depreciation. Excluding the effects of IFRS 16, DIS' 'other direct operating costs' would have amounted to US\$ (58.3) million in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ (55.6) million in the same period of 2023. In the first 9 months of 2024, the Company operated a similar fleet of owned and bareboat vessels relative to the same period of last year (9 months 2024: 28.7 vs. 9 months 2023: 28.5). DIS constantly monitors its operating costs, while focusing on crew with appropriate skills, high SQE (Safety, Quality & Environment) standards and full compliance with very stringent market regulations. Maintaining a 'top-quality' fleet represents an essential part of d'Amico's vision and strategy.
General and administrative costs amounted to US\$ (5.1) million in Q3 2024 (US\$ (7.1) million in Q3 2023) and to US\$ (16.2) million in the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ (18.4) million in the first 9 months of 2023). These costs relate mainly to onshore personnel, together with office costs, consultancies, travel expenses and others.
Result on disposal of vessel was negative for US\$ (0.3) million in Q3 2024 vs. US\$ (0.6) million in Q3 2023 and for US\$ 4.3 million in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ (4.4) million in the same period of last year. The amount for the first 9 months of 2024 includes a profit of US\$ 5.1 million from the disposal of M/T Glenda Melanie, occurred in Q2 2024, partially off-set by the amortisation of the net deferred result on vessels sold and leased back in previous years. The amount for the first 9 months of 2023 includes US\$ (3.4) million charges related to the accelerated amortization of the deferred losses on M/T High Freedom, M/T High Trust, M/T High Trader and M/T High Loyalty, whose purchase options were exercised by d'Amico Tankers d.a.c. in the first half of the same year.
EBITDA was of US\$ 57.7million in Q3 2024 (US\$ 70.4 million in Q3 2023) and US\$ 218.8 million in the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ 213.1 million in the first 9 months of 2023), reflecting the strong freight market conditions.
Depreciation, impairment, and impairment reversal amounted to US\$ (14.4) million in Q3 2024 (US\$ (15.9) million in Q3 2023) and to US\$ (44.5) million in the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ (46.4) million in the first 9 months of 2023).
EBIT was of US\$ 43.3 million in Q3 2024 (US\$ 54.5 million in Q3 2023) and of US\$ 174.3 million in the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ 166.8 million in the first 9 months of 2023).

Finance income was of US\$ 2.4 million in Q3 2024 (US\$ 1.1 million in Q3 2023) and of US\$ 5.9 million in the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ 3.5 million in the first 9 months 2023). The amount for the first 9 months of 2024 comprises mainly interest income on short-term securities and funds held with financial institutions on deposit or current accounts.
Finance charges amounted to US\$ (5.0) million in Q3 2024 (US\$ (6.6) million in Q3 2023) and US\$ (15.8) million in the first 9 months of 2023 (US\$ (20.8) million in the first 9 months of 2023). The amount for the first 9 months of the year mainly comprises US\$ (15.5) million in interest expenses and amortized financial fees due on DIS' bank loan facilities, actual expenses on interest rate swaps and interest on lease liabilities, as well as US\$ (0.2) million negative exchange difference. The amount recorded in the same period of last year comprises mainly US\$ (19.8) million in interest expenses and amortized financial fees due on DIS' bank loan facilities, actual expenses on interest rate swaps and interest on lease liabilities, as well as US\$ (1.0) million negative exchange difference.
DIS recorded a Profit before tax of US\$ 40.7 million in Q3 2024 vs. US\$ 49.1 million in Q3 2023 and a profit of US\$ 164.4 million in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ 149.5 million in the same period of 2023.
Income taxes amounted to US\$ (0.5) million in Q3 2024 vs. US\$ (0.2) million in Q3 2023 and to US\$ (1.3) million in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ (0.8) million in the same period of 2023.
DIS recorded a Net profit of US\$ 40.2 million in Q3 2024 vs. a Net profit of US\$ 48.9 million achieved in Q3 2023 and a Net profit of US\$ 163.1 million in the first 9 months of 2024 vs. US\$ 148.7 million in the same period of last year. Excluding the result on disposals and non-recurring financial items from the first 9 months of 2024 (US\$ 4.2 million) and from the same period of 2023 (US\$ (4.3) million), DIS' Net result would have amounted to US\$ 158.9 million in the first 9 months of 2024 compared with US\$ 153.0 million in the same period of last year.

The profile of d'Amico International Shipping's vessels on the water is summarized as follows.
* with purchase obligation

The key drivers that should affect the product tankers' freight markets and d'Amico International Shipping's performance are (i) the growth in global oil supply, (ii) refinery margins and throughput, (iii) demand for refined products, (iv) the structure of forward prices for both crude oil and refined petroleum products, (v) the product tankers' fleet growth rate, (vi) the level of inventories in key consuming markets, (vii) the efficiency of the fleet due to factors such as congestion, transshipments and average sailing speeds and (viii) average sailing distances and ballast to laden ratios. Some of the factors that should continue supporting the current strong markets are detailed below:

The notes from page 27 to page 28 are integral part of these condensed consolidated interim financial statements.

d'Amico International Shipping S.A. (individually the "Company" or "d'Amico International Shipping", and when together with its subsidiaries "DIS", "DIS Group" or "the Group") a Sociéte Anonyme, was incorporated under the laws of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg on 9 February 2007; its statutory seat is in Luxembourg. The ultimate parent company of the Group is d'Amico Società di Navigazione. DIS is an international marine transportation company, operating mainly through its fully owned subsidiary, d'Amico Tankers d.a.c. (Ireland), as well as other indirectly controlled subsidiaries. All DIS' vessels are double-hulled and are primarily engaged in the transportation of refined oil products, providing worldwide shipping services to the major oil companies and trading houses.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements as at, and for the nine months period ended 30 September 2024 have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial reporting, as adopted by the European Union.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and its principal subsidiaries. Rounding is applied to the nearest thousand.
The principal accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are set out below.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not contain all information and disclosures required in the consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's consolidated annual financial statements as at 31 December 2023.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements are prepared on the basis of the historic cost convention, with the exception of certain financial assets and labilities, which are stated at fair value through profit or loss or other comprehensive income for the effective portion of the hedges.
The preparation of the financial statements requires Directors to make accounting estimates and in some cases assumptions in the application of accounting principles. The Management decisions are based on historical experience as well as on expectations associated with the realization of future events, considered reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and judgments are exercised in all areas of the business and are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
d'Amico International Shipping provides transportation services of refined petroleum products and vegetable oil, operating in only one business segment, Product Tankers. Furthermore, the Group only has one geographical segment, employing all its vessels worldwide, rather than in specific geographical areas. The Group's top management monitors, evaluates and allocates the Group's resources across the whole fleet, operations are run in one single currency – the US\$ – and DIS considers, therefore, the product tankers business as a single segment.
In the product tankers business and for d'Amico International Shipping as a global product tanker player, there is some element of seasonality in freight markets, however, there are other factors that can have a much more important influence on the demand for our vessels and in their earnings potential.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.
There are a number of the IASB new or amended accounting standards (IFRS) and interpretations (IFRIC) which have come into effect:

Based on current assessments, the newly come into effect accounting standards are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the DIS Group.
Based on current assessments, the accounting standards issued and not yet applied are not expected to have a material impact on the condensed consolidated interim financial statements of the DIS Group.

The Group is currently involved in a number of on-going commercial disputes concerning both our owned and chartered-in vessels. The majority are cargo contamination claims. The disputes are mostly covered by insurance policies with the Group's P&l Club and therefore are not expected to generate any significant financial exposure.
All of the Group's lrish operating companies are qualified to be taxed under the Tonnage Tax regime in lreland. The regime includes a provision whereby a proportion of capital allowances previously claimed by the Group may be subject to tax in the event that vessels are sold, or the Group fails to comply with the ongoing requirements to remain within the regime.
