Challenging market – prospects for turnaround in 2021

Market development during the last quarter was just as we previously warned it would be. After a very strong spring, driven by significant stock accumulation in response to record low oil prices, tanker rates fell sharply during summer and autumn, but we see conditions for a turnaround in 2021.

The sharp decline was attributable to lower oil consumption (due to Covid-19), OPEC's continuing production cuts and stock withdrawals close to the consuming countries. These factors together contributed to considerably reduced demand for tanker transport

With a relatively high share of vessels employed in the spot market, the market trend is clearly reflected in our own financial statements for the quarter. In addition, the result is also burdened by a loss of income due to scheduled drydockings. We are now in a period of increased maintenance. In addition to the usual classification inspections, we are also installing new ballast water management systems. Two vessels went into drydock during the quarter and another seven will go in between now and summer 2021.

Outlook

The hangover after the extensive stock accumulation between March and May continues to linger and the market is likely to be challenging for the rest of the year. If, on the other hand, we look ahead to 2021, things look much brighter.

Increased oil consumption and falling inventories...

Since the lows in April, consumption has increased recently – steadily and relatively sharply. Several institutions and analysts, including the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA), expect consumption to be back at pre-covid-19 levels as early as spring/summer 2021, i.e. around 100 million barrels per day. At the time of writing, early November 2020, the level is around 95 million barrels per day and the trend remains positive.

... bring increased demand for tankers

The combination of increased oil consumption and continuing production cuts means that the stocks built up during spring are now gradually falling. We expect them to be down to the five-year average as early as this coming winter. Overall, we expect that increased consumption of oil and normalised stock levels in 2021 will result in a clear increase in demand for tanker transports.

Record low net fleet growth

Turning to development of fleet growth, things look really exciting. As we enter November 2020, the order book for the product tanker segment is at a record low 6 percent of the total tanker fleet – the lowest level in over 25 years. Including the expected phasing out of tonnage, growth in 2021 is expected to be only about 2–3 percent. Overall, this means that our view of market development in 2021 is extremely positive. However, this is all said with the greatest respect for the difficulty in making substantiated predictions in the current situation.

Gothenburg, November 2020 Kim Ullman, President

Business activities

Spot market earnings for the product tanker fleet in the third quarter of 2020 were USD 14,500 (9,600) per day, which was higher than the average earnings of USD 9,100 (10,000) per day for the market1). Earnings for the Suezmax fleet in the quarter were USD 26,200 (21,300) per day, compared with the average earnings of USD 12,200 (16,600) per day for the market.1)

The product tanker fleet

The ten 65,200 dwt P-MAX tankers are the backbone of Concordia Maritime's fleet. At the end of the reporting period, three of the vessels were employed on time charters. The other seven were employed in the spot market under commercial management through Stena Bulk. The two IMOIIMAX 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.

Earnings

Average earnings for the entire product tanker fleet, spot and TC, during the third quarter were USD 15,000 (10,200) per day. For vessels employed in the spot market, average earnings for the quarter were USD 14,500 (9,600) per day. For the first three quarters, average earnings for the entire product tanker fleet, spot and TC, were USD 17,400 (14,400) per day. For vessels employed in the spot market, average earnings for the first three quarters were USD 17,600 (14,200) per day.

Suezmax fleet

During the period, the Suezmax fleet consisted of the Suezmax tanker, Stena Supreme (158,00 dwt), which is contracted in on a long-term charter, and two vessels on short-term contracts, delivered at the end of the quarter. These are joint charters with Stena Bulk, and Concordia Maritime's share amounts

to 33% of each vessel. During Q4, a further two vessels are being chartered in on short-term contracts with Stena Bulk. Concordia Maritime's share is 50% for each of these vessels. All the vessels were employed on the spot market via Stena Sonangol Suezmax Pool, controlled by Stena and the Angolan state oil company Sonangol.

Earnings

Average earnings for the Suezmax fleet were USD 26,200 (21,300) per day for the quarter and USD 40,900 (22,600) per day for the first three quarters.

Repairs and drydock

Scheduled drydocking of Stena Polaris and Stena Image was completed during the quarter. Stena Penguin, Stena Paris and Stena Important are due to go into drydock during the fourth quarter.

Newbuilding prices

At the end of the quarter, the price of a standard product tanker was about USD 34 million. The price of an IMOII class MR tanker like our IMOIIMAX vessels was about USD 37 million. This is the same price as when we placed our order with the shipyard in 2012. The price of a standard suezmax tanker at the end of the quarter was about USD 56 million.

Financial summary

Result

Result after tax for the quarter was SEK –35.9 (–35.6) million. The weak tanker market during the quarter meant lower earnings for the vessels in the spot market. Costs for ongoing operation and administration were in line with the same period the previous year.

Equity

Equity per share was SEK 21.18 (23.08).

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. An equity hedge has been in place since the second half of 2018 through the forward sale of USD 31 million, with a maturity of 24 months. The forward contracts were realised during the quarter, with a cash effect of SEK –4.3 million. The realised value is recognised in the Company's income statement at maturity.

The closing amount in the hedging reserve at the end of the quarter was SEK –60.5 (–57.8) million. The closing balance for the translation reserve in equity amounted to SEK 492.3 (572.9) million at the reporting date. The changes are recognised in equity through OCI.

Investments and deposits

Investments in property, plant and equipment during the quarter amounted to SEK 36.6 (24.5) million. Investments for the quarter are related to purchases for scheduled drydocking in Q3. During the quarter, the Company did not buy or sell any assets classified as short-term investments in the Company's balance sheet.

Bunker hedge

The Company has a bunker hedge of 67,200 tonnes, effective January 2021 to June 2022.

The settlement price for 46,200 tonnes of MGO in 2021 is USD 645/tonne and for 21,000 tonnes of MGO in 2022 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 –10.0 million for this position was reported in OCI during the quarter. The realised values are recognised in the Company's income statement at maturity.

Positions

The Company has positions for the price differential between bunker grades HSFO and MGO for March to June 2021 covering 8,000 tonnes, with a settlement price of USD 325/tonne. The positions are classified as current liabilities in the Company's balance sheet.

At the end of the quarter, the Company had FFA positions for the period November 2020 to December 2021. These were valued at SEK –1.9 million and are reported in the Company's income statement.

At the end of the quarter, the Company has a Brent option that expires in November. The option is reported in the Company's income statement and is classified as a current liability in the Company's balance sheet.

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 period, 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 vessels in the sailing fleet of 13 (10 owned, 3 on bareboat contracts) 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).

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 September 2020 was 3 (6). The Group employed 584 (520) temporary seagoing employees through Stena Sphere's manning company. The number of temporary seagoing employees has increased compared with the same period in 2019. 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 0.4 (6.0) million, with intragroup invoicing representing SEK 0.0 (0.2) million of this amount. The Parent Company's available liquid funds at the end of the quarter amounted to SEK 953.0 (1,068.3) million, which includes receivables from Group companies in the cash pool and unutilised credit facilities.

Operational challenges

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

Sustainability report

Sustainability work at Concordia Maritime is conducted on a long-term basis and with relevance, openness and transparency as its main guiding principles. The work is based on a materiality analysis in which the main and most relevant sustainability issues are identified.

None of Concordia Maritime's vessels were involved in any incident that resulted in discharges of bunker oil or cargo during the quarter. There were also no workplace incidents resulting in an individual employee being unable to return to a work shift on the following day.

There were also no medical treatment cases during the quarter. One incident classified as a high potential near miss occurred during the quarter. The support on one of the cranes onboard Stena Paris came loose and fell onto the pipework below. However, this did not cause any damage to the vessel. No high risk observations occurred during the quarter.

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

External controls

Ten vetting inspections were conducted during the quarter. There were 23 observations recorded during these inspections, resulting in an average of 2.3 observations per inspection.

No port state control resulted in the detention in port of any Concordia Maritime vessel during the quarter.

Energy management

Efforts to reduce bunker consumption continued during the quarter. Through Stena, the Company has obtained better bunker consumption and emission data. The Company therefore decided to report data in a more relevant way with effect from Q2 2020. We are focusing on actual consumed bunker volumes, actual emissions and also reporting emission efficiency through the key figure grams of CO2 emissions per tonne carried and nautical mile travelled. This will soon be supplemented with emission efficiency for SOx , NOx and particulates, but the data quality must be ensured first.

The Company's fleet increased its bunker consumption (tonnes) compared with the same quarter in 2019 and the period January-September 2019. The number of emissions (tonnes) into air also increased for these comparative periods. However, increased transport efficiency initiatives resulted in improved emission efficiency.

Risks and risk management

As with all commercial enterprises, Concordia Maritime's activities are associated with certain risks, the occurrence of which may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, earnings, financial position and future prospects or result in a fall in value for the Company's shares, meaning that investors could lose all or part of their invested capital. The risks below are not presented in order of importance and are not the only risks and uncertainties the Company faces. Additional risks and uncertainties of which the Company is currently unaware or does not consider significant may also develop into factors that may have a material adverse effect on the Company's business, earnings, financial position or future prospects. The description does not claim to be complete or exact, as risks and their extent vary over time.

The overall risk areas are corporate risks, market risks, operational risks and financial risks.

  • Corporate risks refer mainly to overall risks related to the actual management and operation of the Company. These include risks associated with trademarks, employees, liquidity and funding.
  • Market-related risks are primarily risks associated with changes in the external environment and market. The Board and management only have a limited opportunity to control these risks in the short term, but must still deal with them in the longer-term planning of the business. These include risks associated with the economy, freight rates, oil price movements and political risks.
  • Operational risks are risks related to the management of the operational side of the business. These include risks associated with insurance issues, the environment and ship operation.
  • Credit and financial risks are mainly counterparty risks relating to customers, shipyards and other subcontractors and cooperation partners.

More information about risks and risk management can be found in Concordia Maritime's 2019 annual report, which is available at www.concordiamaritime.com.

Audit review report

Concordia Maritime AB Corp. ID 556068-5819

Introduction

We have reviewed the condensed set of financial statements in the interim report for Concordia Maritime AB (publ) for the third quarter and the nine months ended 30 September 2020. The Board of Directors and CEO are responsible for the preparation and presentation of this interim financial report in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this interim report based on our review.

Scope of the review

We conducted our review in accordance with the International Standard on Review Engagements, ISRE 2410 Review of Interim Financial Information Performed by the Independent Auditor of the Entity. A review consists of making inquiries, primarily of persons responsible for financial and accounting matters, and applying analytical and other review procedures. A review is substantially less in scope than an audit conducted in accordance with ISA and other generally accepted auditing standards in Sweden. The procedures performed in a review do not enable us to obtain a level of assurance that would make us aware of all significant matters that might be identified during an audit. Consequently, conclusions based on a review do not have the level of assurance of those based on an audit.

Conclusion

Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim financial report has not been prepared, in all material respects, in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Group and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Parent Company.
