This is Concordia Maritime

Concordia Maritime is an international tanker shipping company. The company's focus is on cost-effective and safe transportation of refined petroleum products such as gasoline, diesel fuel and jet fuel. The Series B share has been listed on the Nasdaq OMX in Stockholm since 1984.

Our business concept

To provide the customers with safe and cost-efficient tanker transportation based on innovation and performance.

Our vision

To be the customers' first choice for safe, innovative and efficient tanker transportation, which will result in good profitability, steady growth and financial stability.

Our business model

Concordia Maritime's business and revenue model consists of providing vessels to customers in need of safe and costefficient transportation of oil and petroleum products. Revenues are generated mainly by chartering out vessels (spot market or time charters), profit-sharing clauses in charters and the sale of ships. Costs are kept under control by means of long-term maintenance, efficient manning and control over capital costs. CONTENTS

Our customers

The customers include some of the world's largest oil and energy companies. Customer relations are characterised by partnership, cooperation and a long-term perspective.

Our cooperation partners

Concordia Maritime conducts its business activities in close cooperation with several companies in the Stena Sphere. This means that the company's business activities can be conducted cost-efficiently at the same time as its customers have access to the Stena Sphere's knowledge base.

What we transport

The change in business activities implemented in recent years has resulted in a shift in focus from the transportation of crude oil to the transportation of refined petroleum products. The 12 product tankers (P-MAX and panamax) ordered in the last few years, and which are now delivered and will be delivered, are all designed primarily to transport refined petroleum products. Additionally, there is one suezmax tanker, designed for the transportation of crude oil, on order with delivery set for the second quarter of 2012. Vessels may also be chartered in for short periods in both the product and crude oil segments.

Financial objectives

Growth At least 10% per year, while maintaining profitability Profitability Return on equity of at least 12% Equity ratio At least 50% over a business cycle

PRESIDENT'S VIEWS

The trend during the first quarter of the year was as expected as regards both the company's activities and the market. Concordia Maritime's result after tax for the first quarter was SEK 20.9 (22.9) million and EBITDA SEK 57.5 (51.2) million.

Comments on the result

By and large, 2011 began as expected. The product tanker market gradually strengthened, particularly towards the end of the quarter. It is worth bearing in mind that the market has improved from very low levels. The market in the largetanker segment continued to be weak.

Concordia Maritime's business activities have developed as anticipated. The freight rates in the time charter contracts for the P-MAX and panamax tankers continued to be much higher than the rates in the open market and averaged just over USD 20,000 per day.

All our vessels have performed well. During the quarter, one tanker, the Stena Provence, underwent its obligatory 5-year inspection. As in the case of last year's drydocking of the Stena Paris, there were no negative surprises. The tanker is in good condition.

Future prospects

An imbalance between the supply of and demand for tanker transportation is resulting in weak markets. Put very simply, one could say that the demand for oil transport is high, but supply has so far been even higher. This year, the growth rate of the world tanker fleet is expected to decrease, not least in the case of product tankers. As regards demand, there are many positive parameters.

We stand by our earlier assessment that the product tanker market will slowly and gradually improve from current levels. 2011 will probably be yet another weak year, while in 2012 and, in particular, 2013, the prospects for a market in balance are good.

Our own financial position continues to be stable with the capacity for further investments if the right business opportunities arise.

Forecast for 2011

In 2011, we will be exposed to some degree to the open market. During the summer, one P-MAX tanker will be redelivered from its charter and during the first two quarters, our exposure is in the form of two tankers chartered in, a suezmax and an aframax tanker.

Our assessment is that in the financial year 2011, Concordia Maritime will achieve a result before tax of USD 10–13 million, equivalent to SEK 65–85 million, depending on how the market develops.

BUSINESS ACTIVITIES

During the first quarter, the fleet performed according to plan. All the tankers are currently signed to charters at freight rates far exceeding the rates on the spot market.

P-MAX

Nine owned P-MAX tankers were operated during the first quarter. They are all signed to charters of between three and ten years following delivery. The P-MAX tankers operate in different geographical markets all over the world, transporting both light (e.g. gasoline) and heavy petroleum products (e.g. fuel oil) as well as crude oil. During the period, the Stena Provence underwent her 5-year drydocking according to plan.

Panamax

The two panamax tankers Stena Poseidon and Palva, which are owned by Concordia Maritime via a joint venture with Neste Shipping, continued to sail for Neste Oil in transatlantic traffic.

Aframax

During a short period, Concordia Maritime participated with a 50 percent share of the charter of two aframax tankers with a high ice class (1A) from mid-December 2010 until the end of the first quarter of 2011. An aframax tanker has a deadweight of around 110,000 tons and transports primarily crude oil.

Suezmax

Concordia Maritime's presence in the large-tanker market is in the form of the suezmax tanker Yasa Scorpion, which has been chartered together with Stena Bulk since May 2010. The charter expires in May 2011.

Newbuilding program

The tenth and last unit in the series of P-MAX tankers is set for delivery at the end of the second quarter of 2011. The suezmax tanker ordered in the first quarter of 2010 is expected to be delivered in the second quarter of 2012.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY

Turnover and result

First quarter, 2011

Turnover during the first quarter amounted to SEK 159.0 (107.3) million. The result after financial items was SEK 19.0 (20.7) million. The result after tax was SEK 20.9 (22.9) million, which corresponds to a result per share of SEK 0.44 (0.48).

Equity

Equity per share is SEK 35.01 (37.69). The group's equity is denominated in US dollars and decreased during the first quarter of 2011 due to the SEK/USD exchange rate having fallen from SEK 6.73 at the beginning of the quarter to SEK 6.31 at the end of the period. The decrease has been countered by the parent company's equity hedge, which generated a surplus of SEK 37.5 (–7.9) million.

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, i.e. the majority of the income and costs as well as the balance

sheet are nominally in USD. The Group's result is generated in USD, which means that the result in SEK is a direct function of the trend of the SEK/USD exchange rate. In February 2009, Concordia Maritime re-entered into a so-called equity hedge amounting to about 50 percent of the equity in its foreign subsidiaries, corresponding to USD 125 million. This equity hedge resulted in a result of SEK 37.5 (–7.9) million after tax, corresponding to a SEK 0.79 (–0.17) per share during the first quarter of 2011, which is recorded in "Other total comprehensive income".

The accumulated exchange rate differences, including the effects of hedging, recorded directly to equity, amount to SEK –26.2 (119.8) million. The changes are reported in equity via "Other total comprehensive income".

In conjunction with the order for four P-MAX tankers, a cash flow hedge, USD against EUR, was entered into for future payments to the shipyard. The realised result is reported as "Ships under construction". The change in value during the period, including exchange rate changes, amounts to SEK 0.4 (–5.2) million.

Exchange rate differences against Other total comprehensive income

As a result of the trend of the SEK/USD exchange rate in 2011, the company's profit in SEK has changed despite the fact that in USD it has remained unchanged. Read more in "Changes in translation and hedging reserves" about how the company protects itself against currency and interest rate fluctuations.

FINANCIAL SUMMARY (cont.)

In 2009, the company entered into additional interest hedges corresponding to USD 100 million in order to protect itself against interest fluctuations. At the end of the first quarter of 2011, the interest hedges amounted to a total of USD 140 million. These interest hedges are structured in such a way as to cover about 60 percent of anticipated future borrowing within existing credit facilities and expire in 2015. At the end of the first quarter of 2011, these contracts were valued at SEK –28.1 (–8.3) million, which is recorded to equity under "Hedge reserve" via "Other total comprehensive income". On 31-03-2011, the hedge reserve amounted to SEK –28.1 (–10.6) million.

Liquidity and financial position

The Group's available liquid funds, including unutilised credit facilities, amounted to SEK 713.2 (672.8) million on 31-03-2011.

Interest-bearing liabilities during the period increased from SEK 1,596.1 million to SEK 1,480.0 million. On the accounting date, equity amounted to SEK 1,670.9 (1,798.7) million and the equity ratio was 51 (52) percent.

Investments

Accumulated investments during the quarter amounted to SEK 56.6 (298.0) million and are related to deliveries of ships, advance payments and project costs.

Seasonal variations

The fact that Concordia Maritime's vessels are chartered out on long-term contracts counteracts the seasonal variations that otherwise characterise tanker shipping.

Employees and option programs

On 31-12-2010, the Group had 359 employees, including 353 seagoing employees. There are no option programs.

Investments

Part of the company's bond portfolio was sold during the quarter. As a result of this, the bond portfolio is classified as "for sale" as of Q3, which means that it is valued at its market value via "Other total comprehensive income". Other investments are classified as previously, i.e. "held for trading". Here, excess liquidity has been invested in a portfolio with a due-date structure that corresponds well with the investment program. These securities provide a return of 7–8 percent (also called purchase yield).

Other holdings (primarily mutual funds) are valued at their market value on each accounting date and their value at the end of the period amounted to SEK 71.2 (37.6) million.

Parent company

The Parent Company's turnover totalled SEK 35.6 (0.0) million. Intergroup invoicing accounted for SEK 0.0 (0.0) million of this amount. The result after financial items was SEK 56.7 (–9.0) million. The Parent Company's available liquid funds, including unutilised credit facilities, amounted to SEK 1,778.1 (1,819.1) million.

Other events

The Board of Directors proposes that the Annual General Meeting in 2011 approve a dividend of SEK 1.0 (1.0) per share.

OTHER INFORMATION

Related company transactions

Concordia Maritime has a small organisation and purchases services from companies in the Stena Sphere, including Stena Bulk, which conducts tanker business that in some respects competes with Concordia Maritime. Accordingly, there is an agreement, entered into many years ago, that regulates the relationship between the two companies with respect to new business. According to the terms of this agreement, Concordia Maritime has the right to choose whether it wishes to participate 0%, 50% or 100% in the deal in question.

At the beginning of April, Stena Bulk started a joint venture together with Danish Weco in the form of a newly established company, Stena Weco, with Stena Bulk and Weco each owning 50 percent. Weco mainly specialises in the transportation of vegetable oils.

A new agreement with Stena Bulk gives Concordia Maritime the right to the financial outcome on vessels chartered in for a period of more than one year, that has been conducted by Stena Weco, should Concordia Maritime chose to participate. Any other business generated by Stena Weco is not available to Concordia Maritime.

Concordia Maritime purchases services on a regular basis from the the Stena Sphere in the following areas:

  • Vessel charter. Payment is based on a commission of 1.25 percent on freight rates.
  • Commission on the purchase and sale of vessels. Payment is based on a commission of 1 percent.
  • Operation and manning of the Group's vessels, so-called ship management. Payment is based on a fixed price per year and vessel.
  • Purchases of bunker oil. Payment is based on a fixed commission per ton purchased.
  • Administration, marketing, insurance, technical follow-up and development of Concordia Maritime's fleet. Payment is based on a fixed price per month and vessel. In the case of technical consulting services for newbuilding projects, an hourly rate is charged on current account, which is then charged to the project.
  • Office rent and office services. A fixed price per year is charged.

All related company transactions take place on commercial terms and at market-related prices.

Accounting principles

IFRS 8 regarding segment reporting has been applied since 1 January 2009. IFRS 8 is a disclosure standard that defines what an operating segment is. As of the third quarter of 2010, Concordia Maritime's management and board follow up the economic trend of the fleet as a unit. As a result, the two previous segments Product tankers and Large tankers in the financial reporting have been merged into a single segment – Tankers.

This information is provided in accordance with the Swedish Securities Exchange and Clearing Operations Act and/or the Financial Instruments Trading Act. The information was made public on 28 April 2011 at about 3 PM.

The Interim Report for the first six months of 2011 will be published on 16 August and the 9-month Report on 2 November 2011. Historical and current reports, together with news and comments on the company and the tanker markets, can be found on our web site www.concordiamaritime.com.
