Continuing large production cuts, stock reductions and consequences of the pandemic resulted in a record-weak market in the first quarter of 2021. In the MR and VLCC segments, average market rates (Clarkson) were at levels around USD 6,300 and 5,300 per day, respectively – the lowest rates since 1990.
Market developments continue to be reflected in our own earnings. Result before tax for the quarter amounted to SEK –120.2 (–29.0) million. EBITDA was SEK –45.7 (123.2) million, corresponding to USD –5.4 (12.7) million. In operational terms, this was one of the weakest quarters in the Company's history.
In addition to the generally very low freight rates, our financial position was also adversely affected by the largescale docking program, including significant investments in statutory ballast water treatment systems.
The tanker markets have been poor since 2017, apart from during a few short periods. 2020 would have been the year when they recovered. But that was not the case. Instead, the world economy came to a halt and demand for oil plummeted. This was all a direct result of the pandemic.
The consequences of the protracted weak market are clearly reflected in Concordia Maritime's financial performance and position. During the quarter, the Company negotiated a waiver, allowing a derogation from the working capital covenant. The waiver applies until 30 June 2021. In parallel, negotiations are in progress between the Company, lending banks and Stena concerning a solution to strengthen the Company's financial position and liquidity. The outcome of the negotiations will be presented in due course.
At the time of writing, the end of April 2021, the tanker market remains very weak, as we previously predicted. However, our assessment of future market development is unchanged. We therefore believe that the market will already start to show signs of strengthening during the

performance and position."
second quarter due to OPEC's plans to increase volumes from May. We then expect a more significant increase in demand for tanker transportation during the third quarter – and therefore a stronger market. Several factors point to this:

Everyone who has followed us and the tanker market knows that the last few years have been challenging. It is obviously very encouraging that several market factors are now pointing in the right direction and we look forward to taking advantage of the opportunities that arise in a stronger market.
Gothenburg, April 2021 Kim Ullman, President

Spot market earnings for the product tanker fleet in the first quarter of 2021 were USD 9,700 (19,700) per day, which was higher than average earnings per day for the market1), which were USD 6,300 (18,800). Earnings for the suezmax fleet in the quarter were USD 13,100 (49,000) per day, compared with the average earnings for the market1) of USD 8,700 (55,000) per day.
The ten 65,200 dwt P-MAX tankers are the backbone of Concordia Maritime's fleet. At the end of the reporting period, four of the vessels were employed on time charters. The other six were employed in the spot market under commercial management through Stena Bulk. The two IMOII-MAX vessels Stena Image and Stena Important, contracted in on long-term charters, also continued to be employed in the spot market under the cooperation with Stena Bulk.
Average earnings for the entire product tanker fleet, spot and TC, during Q1 were USD 11,700 (19,000) per day. For vessels employed in the spot market, average earnings for the quarter were USD 9,700 (19,700) per day.
During the quarter, the suezmax fleet consisted of the suezmax tanker Stena Supreme (158,000 dwt), which is on a long-term charter, and four vessels on short-term contracts. These are joint charters with Stena Bulk, and Concordia Maritime's share is 33 percent for two of the vessels and 50 percent for the other two. All the vessels were employed in the spot market via Stena Sonangol Suezmax Pool, controlled by Stena and the Angolan state oil company Sonangol.
Average earnings for the Suezmax fleet during the quarter were USD 13,100 (49,000) per day.
Three scheduled drydockings were completed during the quarter.

Concordia Maritime's spot market product tanker fleet performed above Clarksons theoretical index during the quarter. Concordia Maritime's earnings in the Suezmax segment were higher than the index, which shows that the Stena Sonangol pool remains one of the industry's leaders.

Deliveries of new vessels increased in Q1, as did phasing-out through scrapping.

Result after tax for the quarter was SEK –121.4 (29.0) 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 per share was SEK 15.90 (22.99).
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 –72.9 (–57.9) million. The closing balance for the translation reserve in equity amounted to SEK 459.0 (569.1) million at the reporting date. The changes are recognised in equity through OCI.
Investments in property, plant and equipment during the quarter amounted to SEK 74.2 (25.4) million. Investments for the quarter are related to purchases for drydock work completed in Q1 and scheduled in Q2 2021. During the quarter, the Company did not buy or sell any assets classified as short-term investments in the Company's balance sheet.
During the quarter, USD 6.4 million of the Company's installations for ballast water treatment was financed through an agreement with Tritec Marine Ltd. The agreement applies to all the Company's completed and future installations.
The Company has a bunker hedge of 55,650 tonnes, effective April 2021 to June 2022.
The settlement price for 38,150 tonnes of MGO in 2021 is USD 645/tonne and for 17,000 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 –14.1 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 –24.7 (0) million were recognised during the quarter.
The Company has 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 positions are valued at SEK –9.2 million and are reported in the Company's income statement.
At the end of the quarter, the Company had FFA positions for the period April to December 2021. These were valued at SEK 0.4 million and are reported in the Company's income statement.

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 2020, the cash-generating units' carrying amounts did not exceed their recoverable amounts and no impairment was therefore recognised.
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 time charters of two years (until October 2021, with an option for a further year) and one vessel is out on time charter for five months.
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.
The number of employees in the Group on 31 March 2021 was 3 (3). The Group employed 587 (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.
The Parent Company's sales for the quarter amounted to SEK 14.9 (1.5) 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.
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.
With the weak tanker market continuing, there was a risk of the Company breaching its working capital covenant. During March, management therefore negotiated a waiver with the lending banks. The waiver applies until 30 June 2021. In parallel, negotiations are in progress between the Company, lending banks and Stena concerning a solution to strengthen the Company's financial position and liquidity. The Company's available liquid funds were negatively affected by a reduction of USD 8.5 million (corresponding to SEK 74 million) in unutilised facilities in Q1.

None of Concordia Maritime's vessels were involved in any incident that resulted in discharges of bunker oil or cargo during the quarter. Unfortunately, a workplace incident occurred on Stena Premium on 19 March when a crew member slipped while carrying out maintenance on a ballast tank. The crew member was back at work the day after the accident and has thankfully now been given a clean bill of health. The accident was classified as a restricted work case. No medical treatment cases occurred during the quarter.
Two incidents classified as a high potential near miss occurred during the quarter. One happened while loading Stena Important in Pasir Gudang, Malaysia. During the loading of vegetable oil, a communication problem arose between the terminal and the vessel, which resulted in 200 litres of vegetable oil leaking out from an inspection hatch. The incident did not result in any spillage into the water. The second incident concerned Stena Paris. A very small fire broke out during an inspection of the fans and was quickly extinguished. None of Concordia Maritime's vessels were involved in any piracy-related incidents during the quarter.
Ten vetting inspections were conducted during the quarter. There were 18 observations recorded during these inspections, resulting in an average of 1.8 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.
The Company's fleet of owned vessels and vessels on longterm contracts showed reduced bunker consumption in Q1 2021 compared with Q1 2020. The quarter's EEOI (energy efficiency operational indicator), which measures vessels' energy efficiency and CO2 emissions, improved for the P-MAX fleet, while a certain deterioration was noted for our two IMOIIMAX vessels and the Suezmax vessel leased by the Company.

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