Full focus on strengthening liquidity

Full focus of the past quarter has been on continuing to strengthen the Company's financial position and liquidity. The proposed measures we can now present will help to create greater stability until the market strengthens, which we still predict will happen in the second half of 2021.

The market has remained very weak in the second quarter of 2021. We had hoped and believed that it would already start to show signs of an upturn in summer, but the in crease in OPEC production, albeit small so far, has not yet made itself felt in the tanker market. Rates have also been affected by the return of a relatively large number of vessels after brief storage assignments. In addition, rising bunker prices have affected the vessels' earnings.

However, we remain fully confident of positive developments during the second half of the year. The drivers are the same as those we described in the Q1 interim report and in more detail in the 2020 annual report. None of this has changed. If anything, our belief in a turnaround is even firmer than in the previous quarter. Among other things, OPEC+ has now confirmed its commitment to phase out the production cuts and instead increase production by 400,000 barrels per day on a monthly basis from August

until the end of the year. This will, of course, make a difference to demand for tanker transport. Oil stocks are in line with or even below the five-year average and oil consumption in general continues to rise – particularly as a result of increased travel (including flights). In addition, we are also seeing low net fleet growth. The prospects for a turnaround therefore remain strong.

Market developments during the quarter are clearly reflected in our own earnings. Result before tax for the quarter was SEK –88.4 (28.3) million. EBITDA was SEK –16.7 (114.1) million, corresponding to USD –2.0 (11.8) million. In addition to the generally weak market, the Company's financial position has, as in the previous quarter, been negatively affected by the extensive docking program, including significant investments in statutory ballast water treatment systems.

have been investigated and considered but the proposed arrangement is considered to be the best possible solution."

Vigorous measures

The weak tanker market over the last five years has posed financial challenges for Concordia, as reported in the interim report for the first quarter of 2021. The measures we are now planning for were announced in a press release in mid-July. Overall, they consist of a term sheet with lending banks, a five-year time charter for all P-MAX vessels and a guarantee with the largest shareholder, Stena Sessan AB. The time charter for the P-MAX vessels ensures guaranteed monthly income at a pre-determined level. Additional income may also be generated from profit-sharing and/or divestment of vessels.

The measures are interdependent. In addition, the Time Charter and the Guarantee are also subject to approval at the Extraordinary General Meeting to be held on the date of issue of this report, 12 August 2021.

The Board of Directors and management believe that these measures are necessary to strengthen the Company's financial position and liquidity. A number of alternative solutions have been investigated and considered but the proposed arrangement is considered to be the best possible solution. More information about the EGM, the Term Sheet, the Time Charter and the Guarantee can be found in the notice of the EGM.

Financial summary

Result

Result after tax for the quarter was SEK –89.7 (28.3) million. The weak tanker market during the quarter meant lower earnings for the spot market vessels. Costs for ongoing operation and administration are slightly higher than for the same period the previous year due to a larger number of chartered-in vessels.

Equity

Equity per share was SEK 14.67 (22.57).

Changes in translation and hedging reserves

The Parent Company's functional currency is SEK, but the majority of the transactions in the Group are in USD. The Group's result is generated in USD, which means the result in SEK is a direct function of the SEK/USD exchange rate trend.

The closing amount in the hedging reserve at the end of the quarter was SEK –17.8 (–49.6) million. The closing balance for the translation reserve in equity amounted to SEK 434.6 (512.3) million at the reporting date. The changes are recognised in equity through OCI.

Liquidity

Concordia Maritime's available liquid funds have been significantly reduced during the year due to planned investments such as the installation of statutory ballast water treatment systems and the withdrawal of credit facilities, while operating income has been low as a result of the current market situation. Available liquid funds including unutilised credit facilities amounted to SEK 378.0 million

at the end of 2020 and SEK 139.5 million at the end of Q2 2021.

Investments and deposits

Investments in property, plant and equipment during the quarter amounted to SEK 39.8 (13.2) million. Investments are related to purchases for drydock work completed during the quarter and scheduled in 2021. During the quarter, Concordia Maritime did not buy or sell any assets classified as short-term investments in the Company's balance sheet.

During the quarter, USD 12.6 million of Concordia Maritime's installations for ballast water treatment was financed through an agreement with Tritec Marine Ltd. The agreement applies to all Concordia Maritime's completed and future installations.

Bunker hedge

Concordia Maritime has a bunker hedge of 44,100 tonnes, effective July 2021 to May 2022.

The settlement price for 26,600 tonnes of MGO in 2021 is USD 645/tonne and for 17,500 tonnes of MGO in 2022 it is USD 618/tonne.

Hedge accounting is applied for the bunker hedge, and the fair value is recognised in other comprehensive income. A fair value change of SEK 38.6 million for this position was reported in OCI during the quarter. The realised values are recognised in the Company's income statement at maturity. Operating expenses of SEK –16.9 (0) million were recognised during the quarter.

Measures to strengthen the Company's financial position and liquidity

During the quarter, a conditional agreement was reached with Stena Bulk AB on time chartering of all ten of the Company's P-MAX product tankers ("the Time Charter"). Concordia Maritime and some of the Company's lending banks ("the Banks") have also agreed on a conditional term sheet concerning new terms and conditions for the current financing, originally amounting to USD 114 million, until the loan matures in Q4 2024 ("the Term Sheet"). In addition, Concordia Maritime has entered into a conditional guarantee agreement whereby Stena Sessan AB guarantees to pay the lending banks up to USD 10 million on behalf of Concordia Maritime under certain circumstances ("the Guarantee"). The Time Charter and the Guarantee are required in order to enter into a binding agreement with the Banks.

As a part of the Term sheet (as defined in separate notice for the Extraordinary General Meeting), the Company has negotiated, and received, new waivers from the Banks (as defined in separate notice for the Extraordinary General Meeting) which are valid until new terms and conditions of the financing are in place or until 30 September 2021 as well as been given deferment on parts of the amortisations to the Company's lending banks.

In connection with the negotiations with the Banks and the Stena sphere, the Board of Directors have considered the terms of the Time Charter with consideration to the current market and have also considered other alternative measures to achieve corresponding positive financial effects for the Company. Given the current market, as well as the liquidity and financial position of the Company, the Board of Directors deem the Time Charter, the Term Sheet and the Guarantee to be vital in order to strengthen Concordia Maritime's financial position and liquidity.

Extraordinary General Meeting

As the Time Charter and the Guarantee are significant relatedparty transactions, an Extraordinary General Meeting has been scheduled for 12 August 2021. The EGM notice contains further information about the Term Sheet, the Time Charter and the Guarantee.

Positions

Concordia Maritime has had positions for the price differential between bunker grades HSFO and MGO for April to June 2021 covering 6,000 tonnes, with a settlement price of USD 325/tonne. The result is reported in the Company's income statement and amounted to SEK –1.7 million at the closing date.

At the end of the quarter, Concordia Maritime had FFA positions for the period July 2021 to March 2022. These were valued at SEK 0.2 million and are reported in the Company's income statement.

Valuation of the fleet

The Group's standard process is to conduct six-monthly assessments of the fleet to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. The fleet is defined as two cash-generating units, with product tankers representing one unit and suezmax another unit. An impairment loss is recognised when the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount is the higher of fair value (external valuations) and value in use (future discounted cash flows). At the end of the first half of 2021, the cash-generating units' carrying amounts did not exceed their recoverable amounts and no impairment was therefore recognised.

Seasonal variations

At the end of the quarter, 10.7 vessels in the sailing fleet of 14.7 (10 owned, 3 on bareboat contracts and 1.7 vessels on short time charters) were employed in the spot market, one of them on a CVC contract. Three vessels are out on twoyear time charters (until October 2021, with an option for a further year) and another vessel is on a five-month time charter.

Earnings for the vessels that are not signed out to time charters are related to the freight level on the open market. This fleet deployment means that earnings are affected by the seasonal variations that occur in tanker shipping.

Employees

The number of employees in the Group on 30 June 2021 was 3 (3). The Group employed 596 (523) temporary seagoing employees through Stena Sphere's manning company. The number of temporary seagoing employees has increased compared with the same period in 2020. This is due to cabotage trade in Brazil, which requires a certain percentage of the crew to be Brazilian. Another reason for the increase is inefficient crew changes during the period due to Covid-19.

Parent Company

The Parent Company's sales for the quarter amounted to SEK 15.9 (0.0) million, with intragroup invoicing representing SEK 0.0 (0.0) million of this amount. The Parent Company's available liquid funds at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 216.1 (1,187.4) million, which includes receivables from Group companies in the cash pool and unutilised credit facilities.

Operational challenges

Due to Covid-19, the Company has been unable to carry out crew changes as normal during the quarter. Crew safety comes first and crew changes are carried out when possible.

Concordia Maritime's contribution to more sustainable tanker shipping

Concordia Maritime conducts long-term sustainability work which is based on three focus areas that the Company considers most important and where there is greatest potential for influence.

Providing safe tanker transport

Concordia Maritime's operations must be conducted in a manner that protects employees, the environment and vessels. A strong safety culture at all levels of the organisation is needed to minimize the risk of accidents and incidents.

Reducing our environmental impact

Concordia Maritime is strongly committed to reducing the impact of its operations on the environment. Continuous work to reduce emissions and increase energy efficiency is conducted within the organisation and with other stakeholders.

Taking our responsibility for employees and society

Principles and guidelines

A clear framework sets out the guidelines on how Concordia Maritime should act as a responsible company and employer.

Partnerships and collaboration Influence is exerted by working closely with partners and other forms of collaboration.

Monitoring and controls A structured approach to monitoring and controls creates conditions for measuring and improving the Company's

sustainability performance.

Sustainable tanker shipping

Sustainability report

None of Concordia Maritime's vessels were involved in any incident that resulted in discharges of bunker oil or cargo during the quarter. We are proud that no workplace incidents were reported on our vessels during the quarter. However, there was one minor incident classified as DTP (damage to property) during the quarter. During a loading operation in Malaysia, a hose was connected incorrectly, causing slight deformation of a freshwater tank on the starboard side.

None of Concordia Maritime's vessels were involved in any piracy-related incidents during the quarter.

External controls

Seven vetting inspections were conducted during the quarter. There were 14 observations recorded during these inspections, resulting in an average of 2.0 observations per inspection. A total of 33 vetting inspections were conducted in the full year. There were 83 observations recorded during these inspections, resulting in an average of 2.5 observations per inspection. No port state control resulted in the detention in port of any Concordia Maritime vessel during the quarter.

Energy management

The Company's fleet of owned vessels and vessels on longterm contracts showed a decline of 8% in bunker consumption in Q2 2021 compared with Q2 2020. The quarter's EEOI (energy efficiency operational indicator), which measures vessels' energy efficiency and CO2 emissions, showed a deterioration for the P-MAX fleet, while an improvement was noted for our two IMOIIMAX vessels and the Company's leased Suezmax vessels.

Risks and risk management

Concordia Maritime operates in an industry where demand for the Company's services is affected by business cycles and seasonal effects, as well as factors of a more temporary nature. This creates both business opportunities and risks, and the Company's ability to identify, assess, manage and monitor them is an important part of the governance and control of Concordia Maritime's business operations.

Concordia Maritime's risk work is aimed at creating good conditions, through well-considered risk-taking, for achieving the Company's business goals and upholding its ability to create long-term value for customers and owners. Risk work is based on an established framework that specifies acceptable levels of risk-taking. Risk-taking levels are determined by the Board.

The main risks associated with Concordia Maritime's operations and the industry – and which could have a significant negative impact on the Group's operations, strategy, profitability, cash flow, shareholder value or reputation – are divided into four categories. Sustainability risks are integrated into the risk categories.

Strategic risks are primarily external factors that could affect Concordia Maritime's operations. The Board and management have limited opportunity to control these risks in the short term, but must still deal with them in

the planning and governance of the operations. Strategic risks also include internal factors that could make it difficult to achieve the Company's overall business goals.

  • Operational risks are related till operating activities. These are risks that Concordia Maritime can largely control and prevent – either itself or through cooperation partners.
  • Compliance risks are related to the fact that Concordia Maritime operates in a global market and an industry that is subject many laws, regulations and rules on, for example, safety and the environment. The risks are associated with non-compliance, but also with the consequences of the Company adapting to, for example, stricter environmental legislation.
  • Financial risks include credit, currency and interest rate risks that may adversely affect the Company's results. See also "Measures to strengthen the Company's financial position and liquidity" under "Financial summary".

More information about risks and risk management can be found in Concordia Maritime's 2020 annual report, which is available at www.concordiamaritime.com.
