1) The sales increase is partly attributable to inclusion of the Österströms Group in the financial statements as of June 2011, and partly to the Offshore/Icebreaking business area, which received two vessel deliveries during the period and the effect of including Trans Viking at 100% as of September 22, 2010 (previously 50%).
2) Operating loss: Earnings before tax, restructuring costs and acquisition effects.
In the third quarter, we can confirm that the troubled situation in the international economy affected us and that recovery from the financial crisis in 2009 slowed down. Earnings for the third quarter are unsatisfactory and amounted to a loss of SEK ‐136 M, of which SEK ‐105 M comprises restructuring costs.
In the Offshore/Icebreaking business area, we recorded a positive operating result of SEK 12 M for the quarter. Two vessels were chartered at satisfactory rates on the spot market in the North Sea and four vessels were chartered on long‐term contracts. During the quarter, Magne Viking was delivered from the shipyard and Njord Viking commenced a four‐year charter for Eni in the Barents Sea. The degree of utilization during the quarter was also high, amounting to an average of 76%. It is positive to note that our investments in the four new AHTS vessels have been well received in the market. In general, rates in the North Sea spot market rose and averaged about NOK 370,000 during the month of September.
In the Industrial Shipping business area, both the RoRo Baltic and Container divisions recorded positive results, while results from the bulk segment were negative. The operating loss for the quarter amounted to SEK 43 M. The new line that commenced in early June, the TransBothnia Line, recorded favorable goods volumes and affirms our conviction that our investment in systems traffic in the Baltic Sea area is well‐timed. We are continuing our efforts to improve earnings by cutting costs, reviewing our structures and business plans, adjusting the fleet and continuing the development of a more cost‐efficient system.
The process of a spin‐off from the Group is progressing according to plan. The new office for Trans Viking in Copenhagen is now complete and we expect that all personnel affected will be in place in November. Work with the integration of Österströms is also progressing according to schedule and relocation to the new head office for Industrial Shipping in Gothenburg will commence in mid‐November, with completion scheduled for January 2012.
An Extraordinary General Meeting will be held on Monday, November 7 and as set out in the notice, the Meeting will address a resolution concerning the Board's motion for a new share issue of about SEK 555 M with preferential rights for existing shareholders, and the Board's proposal of an acquisition of SBS Marine.
It is my own and the Board's view that a separation of TransAtlantic into two separate companies will lead to two more focused operations, which in turn will strengthen both companies.

Rolf Skaarberg President and CEO
Consolidated net sales amounted to SEK 2,086 M (1,754).

The business area's vessels conduct operations for Arctic offshore, the offshore spot markets in the North Sea and in the global offshore sector. The fleet comprises seven offshore vessels and one new building contract with delivery at year‐end. The vessels are equipped for and have the capacity to operate in Arctic areas.
The offshore market has gradually been strengthened with an increasing number of oil‐rig movements and generally increased activity, leading to a higher degree of utilization for AHTS vessels and consequently higher rates
Tor Viking II has operated on the spot market in the North Sea during the entire third quarter. Rates on the spot market in the North Sea have stabilized and vary between GBP 20,000‐100,000 per 24‐hour period. A certain surplus of AHTS vessels in the area remains but due to bad weather, resulting in extended assignments, and generally high activity on the spot market, record rates were noted during the period. The degree of utilization for vessels in the spot market varied between 72 and 86% for the quarter.
Magne Viking, which was delivered from the Zamakona shipyard in Spain in July, has operated on the spot market since delivery and been listed at rates varying between NOK 400,000‐1,500,000 per 24‐hour period.
In May, Balder Viking commenced a charter for Cairn Energy in Baffin Bay, off the coast of Greenland, for a rate of USD 40,000 per 24‐hour period. The charter is expected to end in November. In August, Vidar Viking commenced a two‐month charter for Cairn Energy in the same area at a rate of USD 57,500 per 24‐hour period. Vessels have carried out ice management services in addition to their usual supply services. After completing their charters at the end of November, both vessels will operate in the spot market in the North Sea.
Loke Viking remains chartered for Statoil and during the period, Odin Viking was relocated from Brazil to the North Sea and now operates on the spot market. Njord Viking commenced a four‐year charter for Eni in the Barents Sea at the end of July.
The last vessel in a series of four, Brage Viking, will be delivered at year‐end 2011.

1) Net sales and operating profit/loss were impacted by the inclusion of Trans Viking at 100% as of September 22, 2010 (earlier 50%).
The business area conducts systems traffic in the Baltic Sea using RoRo and container vessels, (RoRo Baltic Division), container bases scheduled service operations between Sweden and the UK (Container Division), contract based bulk transport in the Baltic Sea, Mediterranean Sea and North Sea as well as RoRo services across the Atlantic and with side port vessels traffic along the US east cost, USEC (Bulk Division) and contracted small bulk traffic in the Baltic Sea (ShortSea Bulk Division) and Division Integrated Logistics.
As part of the investment in developing the business area, the shipping and logistics company Österströms was acquired in early June. Österströms supplements the business area with its Short Sea Bulk operation and integrated logistics services, which are expected to strengthen the business area in the long term. The operating profit for the quarter amounts to SEK ‐43 M.
The RoRo Baltic Division operates scheduled services between Finland and Sweden/Germany/ Belgium with three RoRo routes and one container route. On June 1, a new RoRo line, the TransBothnia Line, commenced between northern Finland and Antwerp/Zeebrugge using two chartered vessels. During the period, goods volumes were in line with the budgeted forecast. For both TransLumi Line and TransFeeder North, goods volumes were favorable with extremely high degrees of utilization during the period. However, the remaining RoRo traffic between Kotka and Gothenburg recorded lower volumes, including a negative impact from Volvo's normal production stop during the summer. Overall, the division performed well during the quarter and continued to report positive results.
The Container Division conducts container‐based scheduled services in the UK, TransPal Line, and feeder traffic, TransFeeder South. During the quarter, TransPal Line operated with four vessels and three departures per week, which entailed favorable volumes but lower average cargo. Export volumes in the steel industry were slightly lower compared with the preceding year and import volumes also declined somewhat during the period. During the period, the new terminal in Hull commenced partial operation but some reconstruction is still ongoing. The new terminal in Hull is not dependent on tides, which will provide significant operational advantages. In TransFeeder South, strong volume growth, combined with favorable balance, also continued during the third quarter. The new larger tonnage that was introduced has created space for further expansion. The division recorded positive results for the quarter.
The spot market for the Bulk Division remained weak due to low cargo supplies and an overcapacity of tonnage. The market is slowly recovering but from low levels. One vessel is leased for the rest of the year on a T/C basis at a satisfactory freight rate and with an option to extend for another 12 months. In Atlantic traffic, west‐bound traffic for magazine paper continued to maintain a high degree of utilization. Deliveries of newsprint from Canada to northern Europe also increased and the positive trend will continue until the end of the year. The high utilization degree of newsprint volumes from Canada to the USEC continues. Overall, the division recorded negative results for the quarter. The transatlantic operations are being phased out which is expected to be completed around year‐end 2011. Two of the vessels will then be placed in the new RoRo line in the Baltic Sea, the TransBothnia Line.
The Short Sea Bulk Division, which from June included operations in Österströms, had continued weak profitability. The market is characterized by a surplus of tonnage and shortage of contract volumes from major customers. The Division recorded negative results for the quarter. Industrial Shipping's nine‐month operating loss amounted to SEK ‐54 M (‐90).

The Group organization comprises management, central administration, finance management and Ship Management. In addition to the TransAtlantic fleet, the Ship Management unit also includes assignments for external vessel owners, such as manning for the Swedish Government's five icebreakers. The decline in net sales, compared with the year‐earlier period, is attributable to the external Ship Management assignment for Atlantic Container Line, which concluded in December 2010.
The decline in the operating profit is attributable to higher costs in central financial administration in the form of increased loan expenses, mainly due to higher borrowing and expenses to external consultants for several ongoing structural projects.

The Parent Company's profit before tax for the period amounted to SEK 68 M (‐156). Profit after tax amounted to SEK 94 M (‐122). The year‐on‐year earnings improvement was attributable to capital gains from the divestment of the owner companies of the vessels Obbola, Östrand and Ortviken.
The Parent Company's shareholders' equity amounted to SEK 1,219 M (1,125 at December 31, 2010), total assets amounted to SEK 3,423 M (2,173 at December 31, 2010). The equity/assets ratio on the balance‐sheet date was 36% (52 at December 31, 2010). Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the period was SEK 4 M (31 at December 31, 2010).

| Registered number of Series B‐shares, traded 51 815 429 | |
| Total number of shares | 55 451 350 |
The general situation for the Group's current structure is that taxes payable are highly limited. Accordingly, recognized corporate tax mainly comprises deferred tax.
The recognized net deferred tax asset for the Swedish operations amounted to SEK 126 M at the end of September 2011 (40 at December 31, 2010).
The recognized deferred tax liability for the operations outside Sweden amounted to SEK ‐43 M at September, 2011 (43 at December 31, 2010).
From June 1, 2011, TransAtlantic procured a loan of NOK 150 M from Kistefos AS. The loan, which extends to December 31, 2011, has a variable interest rate of approximately 8,5%. In addition, Kistefos AS has provided consulting services amounting to SEK 5.3 M for the period. During the quarter, TransAtlantic extended the lease for a container vessel, TransAlrek, which is owned by a German shipping consortium, in which TransAtlantic's Vice Chairman, Folke Patriksson, holds a minority interest via his company, Enneff Rederi AB. The contact is valid until June 2014 with an option for TransAtlantic to extend the contract another two years. There were no other significant transactions.
TransAtlantic is a Group characterized by a high degree of international operations, thereby exposing it to a number of operational and financial risks. TransAtlantic works actively to identify, assess and manage these risks. Risk management is included as an element of the ongoing reviews of the operations. It has been deemed that no further key risks and uncertainties have arisen in addition to those risks and uncertainties described on pages 54‐55 in TransAtlantic's 2010 Annual Report.
The ongoing new building program involves payments in cash and cash equivalents in conjunction with vessel deliveries. To secure these obligations, the Group has reserved funds, pursuant to the renegotiated loan agreement, in a special account totaling SEK 163 M. This has been recognized together with other cash and cash equivalents.
TransAtlantic evaluates a proposal for an agreement in principle with a bank due to the non‐achievement of certain key figures in 2010. The agreement in principle also comprises the third quarter of 2011 when the Group did not fully satisfy the requirements in financing agreements and future situations where the Group may not be able to meet the requirements in financing agreements. A final agreement is expected during the fourth quarter of 2011.
This interim report was prepared, for the Group, in accordance with the application of IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting and applicable rules in the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and for the parent Company, in accordance with the Swedish Annual Accounts Act and the Swedish Financial Reporting Board's recommendation RFR 2 Accounting for Legal Entities. Unless otherwise noted, the same accounting policies and calculation bases for both the Group and Parent Company have been applied as those used in the most recent Annual Report.
The average number of employees in the Group for the period January‐ September amounted to 879 (739 at December 31, 2010).
Bulkvessel TransWing was divested at book value. The sale had a positive effect of about SEK 8 M on the Group's cash balance.
Heléne Mellquist was appointed the new CFO of TransAtlantic. Heléne Mellquist is presently with the International Division at Volvo Trucks, where she held the positions of CFO and Vice President. Heléne Mellquist will take up her duties on January 1, 2012. Heléne Mellquist replaces Gunnar Modalen who has held the position on an interim basis since April 2011 and who will continue to assist the company by undertaking other assignments.
The Bulk Division has signed a three‐year contract with FNsteel OY concerning the transport of ore pellets between Luleå and Kovenhar in Finland. Another three‐year contract was signed with Nordkalk OY concerning their transport of limestone between Storugn and Luleå/Kokkola. The contract will enter into effect on January 1, 2012 and employ two vessels in a fixed loop in the Baltic Sea.
The transatlantic operations are being phased out which is expected to be completed around year‐end 2011. Two of the vessels will then be placed in the new RoRo line in the Baltic Sea, the TransBothnia Line.

The interim report is available in its entirety on the company's website at www.rabt.se
We have reviewed the interim report of Rederi AB TransAtlantic for the period January 1 – September 30, 2011. The Board of Directors and the CEO are responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of this interim financial information in accordance with IAS 34 and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act. Our responsibility is to express a conclusion on the interim financial information based on our review.
We conducted our review in accordance with the Standard on Review Engagements (SÖG) 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 has a different focus and a substantially more limited scope than an audit conducted in accordance with Standards on Auditing in Sweden RS and other generally accepted auditing practices. 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 in an audit. Therefore, the conclusion expressed on the basis of a review does not provide the same level of assurance as a conclusion expressed on the basis of an audit.
Based on our review, nothing has come to our attention that causes us to believe that the interim report has not, in all material aspects, been compiled in accordance with IAS 34 Interim reporting and the Swedish Annual Accounts Act for the Group and in accordance with the Annual Accounts Act for the Parent Company.

| Österströms International AB 2011‐06‐08 | 100% | 100 | Sweden | Industrial Shipping |
An agreement was signed at the end of February to acquire all shares in Arctic Ice Management AB. The company possesses technology and expertise on ice management, which is a key component in the Group's long‐term strategy for Offshore/Icebreaking. The purchase consideration for the shares in Arctic Ice Management totaled SEK 14 M, of which SEK 4 M was paid at September 30, 2011. The Group had only minor transaction expenses in connection with this acquisition. Net sales and operating loss from the acquisition date amounted to SEK 0 M and SEK ‐4 M, respectively. If the acquired company had been wholly owned from the beginning of the year, the Group's net sales would have been SEK 0 M higher, and the consolidated income would have been SEK 1 M lower for the period 1 January‐27 February.
The acquisition of all the shares in Österströms International AB from Skärgårdshavet AB was concluded in June 2011. Österströms International AB is the parent company in the Stockholm‐based shipping and logistics group that conducts operations primarily in the Baltic Sea area. The purchase consideration comprised a fixed portion, SEK 40 M, and a variable portion amounting to between SEK 0 and 40 M. The contract also includes an agreement concerning a supplementary purchase consideration of about SEK 3 M, and will be offset against the variable purchase consideration, conditional on the owner of Skärgårdshavet AB, Percy Österström, maintaining his position at TransAtlantic for a period of three years from the acquisition date. This agreement is revalued on an ongoing basis and the undertaking is recognized in the consolidated accounts under personnel expenses or personnel liabilities respectively. The variable portion is based on the achievement of the profitability targets for 2012 and 2013 in the Industrial Shipping business area. At the time of acquisition, the total purchase consideration was calculated at SEK 47 M, of which SEK 40 M was paid on the handover date. Any supplementary purchase consideration will be paid in 2014. Transaction expenses of SEK ‐3 M in connection with the acquisition were charged against the Group's profit for the first nine months of 2011. Income pertaining to the acquired shares has been included in the consolidated profit and loss from the acquisition date. Net sales and operating loss from the acquisition date amounted to SEK 242 M and SEK ‐35 M, respectively. If the acquired operation had been wholly owned from the beginning of the year, the Group's net sales would have been SEK 422 M higher, and the consolidated profit would have been SEK 23 M lower for the period 1 January ‐ 7 June.
