1 This figure represents time charter ("TC") equivalent earnings for vessels employed on the spot market and time charter contracts, net of commissions. Please refer to the Alternative Performance Measures included further on in this report. This figure excludes TCE Earnings generated by the 'vessels under commercial management', as DIS passes these earnings on to the vessels' owners, after deducting a 2% commission on all their gross revenues.
2 This figure is equal to the ratio of the total off-hire days, inclusive of dry-docks, and the total number of available vessel days.
3 Fixed rate contract days/available vessel days (coverage ratio): this figure represents how many vessel days were employed on time charter contracts, inclusive of off-hire days.
Set out below is d'Amico International Shipping's Group structure as at 31 March 2022:
d'Amico International Shipping S.A. (DIS, the Group, d'Amico International Shipping or the Company) is an international marine transportation company, part of the d'Amico Group (d'Amico), which traces its origins to 1936. As at 31 March 2022, d'Amico International Shipping controls, mainly through d'Amico Tankers d.a.c. (Ireland), its fully owned subsidiary, a fleet of 36.0 vessels, of which 26.0 owned and bareboat vessels (with purchase obligations), with an average age of approximately 7.0 years, compared to an average in the product tankers industry of 12.1 years for MRs and LR1s (25,000 – 84,999 dwt). All DIS' vessels are double-hulled and are primarily engaged in the transportation of refined oil products, providing worldwide shipping services to the major oil companies and trading houses. All the vessels are compliant with IMO (International Maritime Organization) regulations, including MARPOL (the International Convention for the Prevention of Pollution from Ships), with the requirements of oil-majors and energy-related companies and other relevant international standards. Based on MARPOL/IMO rules, cargoes such as palm oil, vegetable oil and other chemicals can only be transported by vessels that meet certain requirements (IMO Classed). As at 31 March 2022, 75.0% of DIS' controlled fleet was IMO Classed, allowing the Group to transport a large range of products.
d'Amico International Shipping's revenue is mainly generated from the employment, either directly or through its partnerships, of the vessels of its fleet under spot contracts and time charters, for the marine transportation of refined petroleum products. Vessels operating under fixed rate contracts, including time charters, usually provide more steady and predictable cash flows than vessels operating on the spot market. Spot contracts offer the opportunity to maximise DIS' revenue during periods of increasing market rates, although they may result in lower earnings than time charters during periods of decreasing rates. This employment mix varies according to prevailing and forecasted market conditions. Gains or losses can also arise from the sale of the vessels in DIS' fleet.
DIS believes that it benefits from a strong brand name and an established reputation in the international market due to its long operating history and that such a reputation is important in maintaining and strengthening its long-term relationships with its partners and existing customers and in developing relationships with new customers. Its partners and customers appreciate the transparency and accountability, which have been priorities for the Group from its early days. Accountability, transparency and a focus on quality are pillars of its operations and key to DIS' success.
The quality of its fleet is preserved through scheduled maintenance programmes, by aiming for exacting standards on owned vessels and by chartering-in vessels from owners who meet high-quality standards.
DIS has a presence in Luxembourg, Dublin (Ireland), London (U.K.), Monte Carlo (Monaco), Singapore and Stamford, CT (USA). These offices are located in the key maritime centres around the world. DIS believes that its international presence allows it to meet the needs of its international clients in different geographical areas, strengthening the Group's recognition and its brand name worldwide. In addition, through the different opening hours of offices located in several time zones, DIS can continuously monitor its operations and assist its customers.
As at 31 March 2022, the Group employed an equivalent of 555 seagoing personnel and 23 onshore personnel.
DIS controlled as at 31 March 2022, either through ownership or charter arrangements a modern fleet of 36.0 product tankers (31 December 2021: 37.0 product tankers). DIS' product tanker vessels range from approximately 36,000 to 75,000 dwt.
Since 2012, DIS has ordered 22 newbuildings, the last of which was delivered in October 2019. All these newbuildings are fuel-efficient and in compliance with recent environmental legislation. They can therefore cater to the high standards required by the Group's oil major customers, in addition to being highly cost effective.
Operating a large fleet enhances the generation of earnings and operating efficiencies. A large fleet strengthens the Group's ability to advantageously position vessels and improves the fleet's availability and scheduling flexibility, providing DIS with a competitive advantage in securing spot voyages. In particular, the scale of its operations provides it with the flexibility necessary to enable it to capitalise on favourable spot market conditions to maximise earnings and negotiate favourable contracts with suppliers.
The following table sets forth information about DIS' fleet on the water as at 31 March 2022.

As at 31 March 2022, d'Amico International Shipping directly employed 36.0 Vessels: 4 LR1s ('Long Range 1'), 8 MRs ('Medium Range') and 2 Handy-size vessels on term contracts at fixed rates, whilst 2 LR, 16 MR and 4 Handy-size vessels were at the same date employed on the spot market. Some of these DIS' vessels are employed through its joint venture GLENDA International Shipping d.a.c., a jointly controlled entity with the Glencore Group, in which d'Amico Tankers d.a.c. has a 50% interest. As at 31 March 2022, the JV operator owned 4 MR vessels built between February 2010 and February 2011, all of which were time-chartered to the Glencore Group, with two of these then time-chartered with identical terms by the Glencore Group to d'Amico Tankers DAC.
d'Amico International Shipping is part of the d'Amico Group, one of the world's leading privately-owned marine transportation companies, with over 70 years of experience in the shipping business, whose ultimate parent company is d'Amico Società di Navigazione S.p.A. (Italy). As at 31 March 2022, the d'Amico Group controlled a wide fleet of owned and chartered-in vessels, of which 36.0 were part of the DIS fleet, operating in the product tanker market. d'Amico International Shipping also benefits from the expertise of the d'Amico Group, which provides technical management services, including crewing and insurance arrangements, as well as safety, quality, and environmental services for DIS' vessels.
Along with the most directly comparable IFRS measures, DIS' management regularly uses Alternative Performance Measures, as they provide helpful additional information for readers of its financial statements, indicating how the business has performed over the period, filling the gaps left by the reporting standards. APMs are financial and nonfinancial measures of historical or future financial performance, financial position or cash-flows, other than a financial measure defined or specified in the Group's applicable financial reporting framework and standards (IFRS); for this reason they might not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies and are not measurements under IFRS or GAAP and thus should not be considered substitutes for the information contained in the Group's financial statements. The following section sets out the Group's definitions of used APMs:
A shipping industry standard allowing the comparison of period-to-period net freight revenues, which are not influenced by whether the vessels were employed on Time charters(TC), Voyage charters or Contracts of affreightment (please see Non-Financial APM definitions below). As indicated in the Profit and Loss financial statement, it is equal to revenues less voyage costs.
EBITDA is defined as the result for the period before the impact of taxes, interest, the Group's share of the result of joint ventures and associates, depreciation, and amortization. It is equivalent to the gross operating profit, which indicates the Group's revenues from sales less its cost of the services (transport) sold. EBITDA Margin is defined as EBITDA divided by Time charter equivalent earnings (as described above). DIS believes that EBITDA and EBITDA Margin are useful additional indicators investors can use to evaluate the Group's operating performance.
EBIT is defined as the result for the period before the impact of tax, interest, and the Group's share of the result of joint ventures and associates. It is equivalent to the net operating profit and the Group uses it to monitor its return after operating expenses and the cost of the use of its tangible assets. EBIT Margin is defined as operating profit as a percentage of Time charter equivalent earnings and represents for DIS a suitable measure to show the contribution of the Time-Charter Earnings in covering both fixed and variable costs.
Return on Capital Employed is a profitability ratio which measures how efficiently a company is using its capital. It is calculated dividing the EBIT by the capital employed, that is, by total assets less current liabilities.
Gross capital expenditure, that is the expenditure for the acquisition of fixed assets as well as expenditures capitalised as a result of the intermediate or special surveys of our vessels, or of investments for the improvement of DIS vessels, as indicated under Net acquisition of fixed assets within the cash-flow from investing activities; it gives an indication about the strategic planning (expansion) of the Group (capital intensive industry).
Comprises bank loans and other financial liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents and liquid financial assets or shortterm investments available to service those debt items. The Group believes net indebtedness is relevant to investors as it is a metric on the overall debt situation of a company, indicating the absolute level of non-equity funding of the business. The relevant table in the net indebtedness section within the report on operations, reconciles net debt to the pertinent balance sheet line items.
The standard eliminates the classification of leases as either operating leases or finance leases for a lessee; instead, all leases are treated in a similar way to finance leases applying IAS 17. Leases are "capitalised" by recognising the present value of lease payments and showing them either as leased assets (right-of-use assets, RoU) or together with property, plant, and equipment (PPE). Lease items of low value (under US\$ 5 thousand) or for which the lease duration is shorter than one year are excluded from this treatment and are expensed as incurred. If lease payments are made over time, the company also recognises a financial liability representing its obligation to make future lease payments. The most significant effect is an increase in lease assets (or PPE) and financial liabilities, leading to changes in key financial metrics derived from balance sheet data.
For companies with material off-balance sheet leases, IFRS 16 changes the nature of the expenses related to those leases: the straight-line operating lease expense (time-charter-in) are replaced with a depreciation charge for the lease asset (included within operating costs) and an interest expense on the lease liability (included within finance costs).
Total theoretical number of days a vessel is available for sailing during a period. It provides an indication of the Group's fleet earnings potential during a period, which takes into account the date of delivery to and redelivery from the Group of the vessels in its fleet (please refer also to the Key figures, other operating measures).
Ratio indicating how many available vessel days are already covered by fixed rate contracts (time charter contracts or contracts of affreightment). It provides an indication of how exposed the Group is to changes in the freight market during a certain period (please refer to Time charter equivalent earnings in the Management financial review).
Daily spot rate refers to daily time-charter equivalent earnings (please refer to definition below) generated by employing DIS' vessels on the spot market (or on a voyage basis) and daily TC rate refers to daily time-charter earnings generated by employing DIS' vessels on 'time-charter' contracts (please refer to the Management financial review).
Means the period in which a vessel is unable to perform the services for which it is immediately required under a time charter. Off-hire periods can include days spent on repairs, dry-docking and surveys, whether or not scheduled. It can help to explain changes in time-charter equivalent earnings between different periods (please refer to Revenues, in the Management financial review).
A measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel or of DIS' fleet. DIS' method of calculating time charter equivalent earnings per day is consistent with industry standards and is determined by dividing voyage revenues (net of voyage expenses) by on-hire days for the relevant time period. Time charter equivalent earnings per day is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance, since it is unaffected by the changes in the mix of charter contracts (i.e. spot charters, time charters and contracts of affreightment) through which the vessels are employed. It allows a comparison of the Group's performance with industry peers and market benchmarks (please refer to Key figures).
The number of vessels equivalent in a period is equal to the sum of the products of the total available vessel days over that period for each vessel and the participation of the Group (direct or indirect) in that vessel, divided by the number of calendar days in that period. It provides an indication of the Group's fleet size and earnings potential over a period (please refer to Key figures).
A contract type under which the ship owner is usually paid monthly in advance charter hire at an agreed daily rate for a specified period of time, during which the charterer is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses (please refer to note 6). A bareboat charter is also known as a "demise charter" or a "time charter by demise".
A contract for the hire of a vessel for a specified period of time or to carry cargo from a loading port to a discharging port. The contract for a charter is commonly called a charter party and there are three main types of such contracts, a bareboat charter party, a voyage charter party and time charter party (refer to definitions in this section).
An agreement between an owner and a charterer which obliges the owner to provide a vessel to the charterer to move specific quantities of cargo, at a fixed rate, over a stated time period but without designating specific vessels or voyage schedules, thereby providing the owner with greater operating flexibility than with voyage charters alone.
The company that controls a vessel, replacing the registered owner, either through a time-charter or a bareboat charter.
For DIS these usually refer to revenues generated through time-charter contracts or contracts of affreightment (please refer to definitions in this section). Bareboat charter contracts are also usually fixed rate contracts but DIS controls rather than employs vessels through such contracts.
A contract type through which a registered owner (owner) or disponent owner (please refer to definition in this section) is paid freight for transporting cargo from a loading port to a discharging port. The charterer pays the vessel owner or disponent owner on a per-ton or lump-sum basis. The payment for the use of the vessel is known as freight. The owner or disponent owner is responsible for paying voyage expenses. Typically, the charterer is responsible for any delay at the loading or discharging ports. A ship-owner or bareboat charterer operating its vessel on voyage charter is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses.
Is a contract type through which the registered owner (owner) or disponent owner (please refer to definition within this section) is paid usually monthly in advance charter hire at an agreed daily rate for a specified period of time (usually a fixed rate contract). With such contracts the charterer is responsible for paying the voyage expenses and additional voyage insurance. A ship-owner or bareboat charterer operating its vessel on time-charter is responsible for the technical management of the vessel, including crewing, and therefore also for its operating expenses.
The product tanker markets were very weak at the beginning of 2022, due to the lingering effects of the COVID pandemic with several countries in Europe and the US experiencing surges in cases from new variants last winter. Freight rates were especially depressed in February '22 but started recovering as developed economies gradually reopened.
Furthermore, from the end of February the oil tanker markets were significantly impacted by the war in Ukraine. Official sanctions and self-sanctioning led to a major disruption in oil product trades with an increase in average sailing distances as Russian exports of refined products were partially replaced by output from the Middle East, Asia and the US. Reluctance by some owners to commit to Russian cargoes or ports has also led to major spikes in regional freight rates from the Baltic and Black Sea ports.
Russia is the largest exporter of oil to global markets. According to the IEA, in December 2021 exports from Russia represented around 5.0 million b/d of crude and condensate and around 2.9 million b/d of refined products. Around 50% of Russia's product exports are sold to European countries.
Refinery throughputs have declined in the first quarter of 2022 to an average of 79.3 million b/d compared to 79.9 million b/d in Q4 2021, remaining 2.8 million b/d below the 2019 average.
The one-year time-charter rate is always the best indicator of spot market expectations and as at the end of March 2022 was assessed at around US\$ 13,500 per day for a conventional MR2, with an Eco MR2 assessed at a premium of around US\$ 2,000 / 2,500 per day.
In Q1 2022, DIS recorded a Net loss of US\$ (6.5) million vs. a Net loss of US\$ (9.8) million posted in the same quarter of 2021. Such positive variance is attributable to an improved product tanker market relative to the same period of last year. Excluding results on disposal and non-recurring financial items, as well as the asset impairment and the effects of IFRS 16, DIS' Net result would have amounted to US\$ (4.2) million in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ (9.3) million recorded in Q1 2021.
DIS generated an EBITDA of US\$ 17.8 million in Q1 2022 vs. US\$ 14.2 million achieved in Q1 2021, whilst its operating cash flow was positive for US\$ 10.2 million compared with US\$ 6.6 million generated in the same quarter of last year.
In terms of spot performance, DIS achieved a daily spot rate of US\$ 12,857 in Q1 2022 vs. US\$ 9,923 in Q1 2021, thanks to the improved market conditions relative to the same period of last year.
At the same time, 44.5% of DIS' total employment days in Q1 2022, were covered through 'time-charter' contracts at an average daily rate of US\$ 14,968 (Q1 2021: 49.5% coverage at an average daily rate of US\$ 15,842). A good level of time charter coverage is one of the pillars of DIS' commercial strategy and allows it to mitigate the effects of the spot market volatility, securing a certain level of earnings and cash generation even throughout negative cycles. DIS' total daily average rate (which includes both spot and time-charter contracts) was of US\$ 13,796 in the first quarter of 2022 compared with US\$ 12,853 achieved in the same quarter of the previous year.

Revenue was of US\$ 66.5 million in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ 59.1 million realized in Q1 2021. The increase in gross revenue compared with the previous year is attributable mainly to a stronger freight market. In addition, the percentage of off-hire days in Q1 2022 (0.3%) was lower than in the same quarter of the previous year (4.5%), mainly due to the timing of commercial off-hires and dry-docks.
Voyage costs reflect the mix of spot and time-charter employment contracts. These costs, which occur only for vessels employed on the spot market, amounted to US\$ (23.7) million in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ (16.4) million in Q1 2021. The higher costs reflect DIS' higher exposure to the spot market and higher bunker prices, relative to the same period of last year.
Time charter equivalent earnings were of US\$ 42.8 million in Q1 2022, in line with the same quarter of last year, despite the lower number of vessels operated in the first three months of the current year (Q1 2022: 36.1 vessels vs. Q1 2021: 38.8 vessels).
In detail, DIS realized a daily average spot rate of US\$ 12,857 in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ 9,923 achieved in Q1 2021.
In Q1 2022, DIS maintained a good level of 'coverage'9 (fixed-rate contracts), securing an average of 44.5% (Q1 2021: 49.5%) of its available vessel days at a daily average fixed rate of US\$ 14,968 (Q1 2021: US\$ 15,842).

Time charter hire costs. IFRS 16 Leases is effective for annual periods beginning on or after 1 January 2019 and has been adopted by the Company. IFRS 16 substantially changes the Group's Consolidated Financial Statements, significantly affecting the treatment by lessees of contracts which in previous periods were treated as operating leases. With some exceptions, liabilities for payments on contracts previously classified as operating leases are now discounted at the lessee's incremental borrowing rate, leading to the recognition of a lease liability and a corresponding right of use asset (amounting to the liability plus the present value of any restoration costs and any incremental costs in entering the lease, as well as any lease payments made prior to commencement of the lease, minus any lease incentives already received). Therefore, starting from 1 January 2019, 'time-charter hire costs' includes only time-charter contracts whose residual term is shorter than 12 months as at that date or for contracts starting later, whose duration is shorter than 12 months from their commencement date. The application of IFRS16 reduced 'charter hire costs' by US\$ 12.4 million in Q1 2022 and by US\$ 13.4 million in Q1 2021, as within the Income Statement, these costs were replaced with other direct operating costs, interest and depreciation.
Excluding the effect of IFRS 16, DIS' 'time-charter hire costs' would have amounted to US\$ (13.6) million in Q1 2022, in line with the same quarter of last year. In Q1 2022, DIS operated a slightly lower number of chartered-in vessels (10.0 equivalent ships) relative to the same quarter of 2021 (10.8 equivalent ships).
Other direct operating costs mainly consist of crew, technical and luboil expenses relating to the operation of owned vessels, together with insurance expenses for both owned and chartered-in vessels. The adjustment to 'other direct operating costs' arising from the application of IFRS 16 increases such expenses by US\$ 5.6 million in Q1 2022 (US\$ 6.1 million increase in Q1 2021), as within the Income Statement, time-charter hire costs are replaced by other direct operating costs, interest, and depreciation. Excluding the effects of IFRS 16, DIS' 'other direct operating costs' would have amounted to US\$ (15.5) million in Q1 2022 vs. US\$ (18.4) million in Q1 2021. In Q1 2022, the Company operated a smaller fleet of owned and bareboat vessels relative to the same period of last year (Q1 2022: 26.1 vs. Q1 2021: 28.0). DIS constantly monitors its operating costs, while focusing on crew with appropriate skills, high SQE (Safety, Quality & Environment) standards and full compliance with very stringent market regulations. Maintaining a 'topquality' fleet represents an essential part of d'Amico's vision and strategy.
General and administrative costs amounted to US\$ (3.4) million in Q1 2022 and were very in line with the same quarter of last year. These costs relate mainly to onshore personnel, together with office costs, consultancies, travel expenses and others.
Result on disposal of vessel was negative for US\$ (0.5) million in Q1 2022 and was in line with the same quarter of last year. The amount refers to the amortisation of the net deferred result on all vessels sold and leased back in the previous years.
EBITDA was of US\$ 17.8 million in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ 14.2 million in Q1 2021, mainly thanks to the better freight markets experienced in the first three months of the current year.
Depreciation, impairment, and impairment reversal amounted to US\$ (17.5) million in Q1 2022 vs. US\$ (16.4) million in Q1 2021. The amount for Q1 2022 includes an impairment of US\$ (2.1) million on a MR vessel (M/T High Priority) owned by d'Amico Tankers d.a.c., whose sale was recently announced. In accordance with IFRS 5, this vessel was classified as 'asset held for sale' at the end of the period, with the difference between its fair value less cost to

EBIT was of US\$ 0.3 million in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ (2.3) million in Q1 2021.
Net financial income was of US\$ 0.6 million in Q1 2022 vs. US\$ 0.8 million in Q1 2021. The amount for Q1 2022 comprises mainly US\$ 0.4 million unrealized gain in relation to the ineffective part of DIS' interest rate swap agreements, US\$ 0.1 million commercial foreign exchange gain, as well as bank interest income on funds held with financial institutions on deposit and current accounts. The Q1 2021 amount comprised mainly US\$ 0.4 million unrealized gain in relation to the ineffective part of DIS' interest rate swap agreements, US\$ 0.1 million unrealized gain on freight derivative instruments used for hedging purposes, US\$ 0.3 million commercial foreign exchange gain, as well as bank interest income on funds held with financial institutions on deposit and current accounts.
Net financial charges amounted to US\$ (7.2) million in Q1 2022 vs. US\$ (8.2) million in Q1 2021.

The amount recorded in the same quarter of last year included US\$ (8.1) million in interest expenses and amortized financial fees due on DIS' bank loan facilities, actual expenses on interest rate swaps and interest on lease liabilities, as well as US\$ (0.1) million of unrealised losses mainly in relation to the ineffective part of DIS' interest rate swap agreements.
DIS recorded a Loss before tax of US\$ (6.4) million in Q1 2022 vs. Loss before tax of US\$ (9.7) million in Q1 2021.
Income taxes amounted to US\$ (0.1) million in both Q1 2022 and Q1 2021.
In Q1 2022, DIS recorded a Net loss of US\$ (6.5) million vs. a Net loss of US\$ (9.8) million achieved in the same quarter of 2021. Excluding the result on disposals and non-recurring financial items from Q1 2022 (US\$ (0.4) million) and from Q1 2021 (US\$ (0.1) million), as well as the asset impairment (US\$ (2.1) million in Q1 2022) and the net effects of IFRS 16 from both periods (Q1 2022: US\$ 0.1 million and Q1 2021: US\$ US\$ (0.3) million), DIS' Net result would have amounted to US\$ (4.2) million in Q1 2022 compared with US\$ (9.3) million recorded in the same quarter of the previous year.

The key drivers that should affect the product tankers, freight markets and d'Amico International Shipping's performance are (i) the growth in global oil supply, (ii) refinery margins and throughput, (iii) demand for refined products, (iv) the structure of forward prices for both crude oil and refined petroleum products, (v) the product tankers' fleet growth rate, (vi) the efficiency of the fleet due to factors such as congestion and average sailing speeds and (vii) average sailing distances. Some of the factors that could drive a recovery in the product tankers market in the medium-term are detailed below:
releases from its strategic reserves. In total 240 million barrels should be released between May and October '22 (around 1.3 million bpd), alleviating the likely drop in supply from Russia and providing more time for the market to ramp-up supply.

d'Amico International Shipping S.A. (the "Company", DIS) a Sociéte Anonyme, was incorporated under the laws of the Grand-Duchy of Luxembourg on 9 February 2007; its statutory seat is in Luxembourg. The ultimate parent company of the Group is d'Amico Società di Navigazione. DIS is an international marine transportation company, operating mainly through its fully owned subsidiary, d'Amico Tankers d.a.c. (Ireland), as well as other indirectly controlled subsidiaries. All DIS' vessels are double-hulled and are primarily engaged in the transportation of refined oil products, providing worldwide shipping services to the major oil companies and trading houses.
The financial statements of the d'Amico International Shipping Group are prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS – International Financial Reporting Standards and IAS – International Accounting Standards) as issued by the 'IASB' (International Accounting Standards Board) and adopted by the European Union. The designation 'IFRS' also includes all 'IAS', as well as all interpretations of the International Financial Reporting Interpretations Committee 'IFRIC', formerly the Standing Interpretations Committee 'SIC' as adopted by the European Union. The consolidated financial statements are prepared on the basis of the historic cost convention, with the exception of certain financial assets and labilities, which are stated at fair value through profit or loss or other comprehensive income for the effective portion of the hedges.
The financial statements are presented in U.S. Dollars, which is the functional currency of the Company and its principal subsidiaries. Rounding is applied to the nearest thousand.
The principal accounting policies, which have been consistently applied, are set out below.
The financial statements present the consolidated results of the parent company, d'Amico International Shipping S.A., and its subsidiaries for the period ended 31 March 2022.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not contain all information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the Group's annual financial statements as at 31 December 2021.
The preparation of the financial statements requires Directors to make accounting estimates and in some cases assumptions in the application of accounting principles. The Management decisions are based on historical experience as well as on expectations associated with the realization of future events, considered reasonable under the circumstances. Critical accounting estimates and judgments are exercised in all areas of the business and are reviewed on an ongoing basis.
d'Amico International Shipping provides transportation services of refined petroleum products and vegetable oil, operating in only one business segment, Product Tankers. Furthermore, the Group only has one geographical segment, employing all of its vessels worldwide, rather than in specific geographical areas. The Group's top management monitors, evaluates and allocates the Group's resources as a whole, operations are run in one single currency – the US\$ – and DIS considers, therefore, the product tankers business as a single segment.
The accounting policies adopted are consistent with those of the previous financial year.
There are no new accounting principles that are expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current reporting periods and on its foreseeable transactions.
There are no other standards that are not yet effective and that would be expected to have a material impact on the entity in the current or future reporting periods and on its foreseeable transactions.

The manager responsible for preparing the Company's interim financial reports, Antonio Carlos Balestra di Mottola, in his capacity as Chief Financial Officer of the Company, declares that the accounting information contained in this document corresponds to the results documented in the books, accounting and other records of the Company.
