The main part of the Group's PSV and AHTS fleet operates on firm contracts or in the spot market, while the subsea fleet is partly utilised on term contracts or on subsea IMR (Inspection, Maintenance and Repair) project contracts.

PSV

The PSV fleet includes 16 vessels of which one vessel is owned via a minority share. The majority of the fleet has operated in the North Sea market and the fleet has achieved an average utilisation of 94% in the quarter and 90% in the 3rd quarter 2018. The North Sea spot market continued to be busy in the quarter, but with a slightly drop in rates by end of the quarter. One vessel started to mobilise for a long-term contract in Australia during the period. All vessels have been in operation during the quarter.

Main contract awards have been a 5-year contract for the Skandi Feistein for Esso Australia and two 5-year contracts with ConocoPhillips in the North Sea. In addition, two contracts have been awarded for the Skandi Barra and Skandi Caledonia in the North Sea.

AHTS

The AHTS fleet includes 18 vessels and additional two vessels on management. Five vessels are 50% owned via DOF Deepwater AS and one vessel is owned via a minority share in Iceman AS. The average utilisation for the AHTS fleet was 75% in the quarter and 69% in the 3rd quarter 2018.

11 vessels have operated in South America, whereof 10 in Brazil and one in Argentina. The fleet in Brazil has during the period operated on firm contracts whereof the majority of the fleet has local flag. For the fleet operating in the North Sea spot market, the utilisation and earnings have improved compared to same period last year. In Asia-Pacific two vessels have operated outside New Zealand to support the drilling activity. In total three vessels were in lay-up by end of the quarter.

A 6-month firm contract for the Skandi Vega with Equinor in the North Sea was awarded in the quarter. Skandi Fluminense has been awarded a 1-year contract with Petrobras and in Asia Pacific two AHTSs have been awarded contract with OMV to support a drilling rig outside New Zealand.

SUBSEA

During the 3rd quarter the Group operated a fleet of 31 Subsea vessels, including two vessels hired from external owners. The majority of the fleet is owned by the subsidiary DOF Subsea AS.

The revenues from the subsea operation include revenues from subsea IMR project contracts and long-term charters, performed by DOF Subsea. The revenues from the subsea IMR contracts during the 3rd quarter amounted to NOK 969 million (NOK 787 million). The Group's subsea IMR activities are operated from the Atlantic region, the Asia-Pacific region, the North America region, and the South America (Brazil) region. The overall utilisation of the subsea fleet was 81% in the 3rd quarter and 75% in the 3rd quarter last year.

The subsea IMR market remains challenging with low utilisation of both personnel and assets. In the 3rd quarter the Group has improved the performance in all regions compared to the two previous quarters, but there is still a continued pressure on rate levels. By the end of the quarter, all vessels within the IMR subsea projects were active, and the average utilisation for the Subsea IMR/project fleet has been 86% (73%) in the quarter. One vessel within long-term chartering was idle by end of the quarter.

The Group owns, via the DOFCON (JV 50/50 owned by DOF Subsea and TechnipFMC), six PLSVs with operation in Brazil. Four vessels are operating on long-term contracts with Petrobras and have achieved a utilisation close to 100% during the quarter. Skandi Niteroi completed the mobilisation for its contract at the Peregrino field and went on-hire in October. Skandi Vitoria has been in lay-up in the quarter.

DOF Subsea has been awarded several contracts in the subsea/IMR project segment in the Atlantic and North America region and secured utilisation for Skandi Skansen and Harvey Deep Sea (3rd party vessel) securing utilisation in the 4th quarter. Skandi Hugen has been awarded a 5-year contract with ConocoPhillips in the North Sea. After balance date DOF Subsea has further been awarded contracts in West Africa for two vessels and Fugro has extended the firm period of hire for Skandi Carla up to end of October 2020.

P&L 3 RD QUARTER

The Group has adopted the new accounting standard for IFRS 16 Leases and applied the simplified transition approach, and comparative amounts for the year prior to first adoption are not restated. Total assets and liabilities at the end of third quarter are affected by the implementation of the standard by NOK 474 million. This has increased the lease liabilities, net investment and right-of-use assets compared to the financial position as reported previous period.

Net result in the 3rd quarter 2019 was NOK -2,130 million (NOK -269 million), of which NOK 733 million (NOK 117 million) represents impairment, and NOK -967 million (NOK 8 million) represents unrealised gain/loss on currencies and financial instruments booked in the period.

Total revenues and operating costs are slightly higher than same period last year and reflect improved performance within the subsea IMR segment and the vessels on term contracts. Net profit from associated companies was NOK -71 million (NOK 51 million) and represents operations from the DOFCON JV and the DOF Deepwater JV. The Group Ebitda was NOK 461 million (NOK 407 million) and the Ebit was NOK -547 million (NOK 31 million). Total depreciation and impairment were NOK 1,009 million (NOK 377 million). The fair market valuations have dropped slightly for some of the oldest part of the fleet, and been stable for the rest of the fleet during the quarter. The impairment evaluations are reflected by continued weak markets and an increased financial risk for the Group. Impairments booked in the period are NOK 733 million (NOK 117 million) including impairment of goodwill of in total NOK 209 million. In addition, an impairment of NOK 184 million (NOK 7 million) has been booked in the joint ventures.

Net financial costs were negative with NOK -1,261 million (NOK -320 million) and include net interest costs of NOK -240 million (NOK -213 million) and net loss on currencies and financial instruments of NOK -1,021 million (NOK -107 million) of which unrealised gain mainly relates variances in USD and NOK/BRL from long-term debt from the subsidiaries DOF Subsea and Norskan.

The Group's operation in Brazil is based on firm charter contracts mainly in USD secured with debt in corresponding currency, hence the Group has been more or less cash neutral related to fluctuation in BRL and USD. The Group uses hedge accounting for some of the long-term contracts in Brazil and has during the quarter released parts of the hedge positions. The Ebitda impact in the 3rd quarter related to hedge accounting amounts to NOK -44 million (NOK -52 million) and the impact in the finance result is NOK -209 million.

Deferred tax assets have been impaired with in total NOK 763 million of which NOK 240 million is booked under OCI (Other Comprehensive Income).

Revenue year to date is slightly higher than last year resulting in an Ebitda of NOK 1,296 million (NOK 1,256 million) and an Ebit of NOK -430 million (NOK 112 million). Net financial result was NOK -1,585 million (NOK -908 million) and is highly impacted by unrealised currency loss on long-term debt and release of parts of the hedge accounting. The loss before taxes is NOK -2,015 million (NOK -728 million).

Of the Group's total balance of NOK 24,383 million (NOK 26,009 million), vessels and subsea equipment amount to NOK 18,192 million (NOK 18,791 million). 11 vessels are owned via joint ventures and are represented as associated companies and non-current receivables in the balance sheet, in total NOK 2,762 million (NOK 2,513 million). Goodwill amounts to NOK 85 million (NOK 317 million). Total equity is NOK 3,512 million (NOK 6,264 million) and includes a non-controlling interest of NOK 1,920 million (NOK 2,391 million).

Cash flow from Q3 2019 21 000

Operational cash flow after payment of interest and taxes was in the 3rd quarter NOK 219 million (NOK -28 million), and net cash flow from investing activities was NOK 130 million (NOK -77 million). Net cash flow from financing activities was NOK -472 million (NOK -250 million).

Financing and Capital Structure

The Group is mainly funded by secured debt (65%), unsecured debt/bonds (11%) and equity (14%). The remaining funding represents net working capital and financial lease debt (IFRS 16).

The remaining outstanding of the convertible bond loan is by end September NOK 156 million and is booked as equity.

As part of a financial restructuring completed in 2018, one subsidiary, DOF Rederi AS, has agreed soft terms on a fleet loan until final maturity in 3rd quarter in 2021. Total outstanding amount of the restructured loan is NOK 3,3 billion. In addition, the DOF Deepwater JV has agreed soft terms until September 2021. The remaining debt within the Group has until end of this quarter been served by normal amortisation.

The unsecured debt mainly represents three bond loans issued by DOF Subsea of NOK 2,635 million. DOF Subsea has during the quarter agreed amended financial covenants by reducing the liquidity threshold from NOK 500 million to NOK 400 million. DOF Subsea has further agreed a waiver regarding payment of NOK 92 million in the DOFSUB07 until 20 December 2019, ref note 11 to the accounts.

effect

The vessels and subsea assets (including the JVs) constitute 86% of the Group's total assets, hence the Group's balance sheet is exposed to fluctuations in the valuations of these assets. As part of the quarterly impairment testing, the updated broker estimates have proven stable valuation of the fleet. However, there is still a general oversupply of vessels globally, and a risk that the values may continue to drop.

The main financial covenants for the Group (excluding DOF Subsea) are minimum free liquidity of NOK 500 million, minimum booked equity of NOK 3,000 million, and minimum LTV (Loan to value) clauses on the vessels. For DOF Subsea the main financial covenants are the same including a minimum value adjusted equity ratio of 30% (based on management reporting). By September, the Company and its subsidiaries were in compliance with all its financial covenants, ref note 11 to the accounts.

The majority of the Group's vessels on long-term contracts are funded in corresponding currency, mainly USD, hence the Group's cash is to a limited extent, exposed to fluctuation in currency.

The portion of long-term debt secured with fixed rate of interest is approximately 75% of total debt and includes the debt with fixed interest in BNDES (Brazilian Development Bank).

As reported in the 2nd quarter report, the Board and Management are working on a long-term refinancing solution for the Group which include a dialogue with the banks, bondholders and the main shareholders. In parallel the Group has agreed a waiver on existing short-term facilities until the 2nd half of December. The progress in the discussions with the relevant stakeholders is good, however no assurance can be given that a final solution is in place by end of the year.

Shareholders

By the end of September, the total share capital was NOK 1,504 million divided into 301 million shares. The main shareholder Møgster Mohn Offshore AS controls 50.06% of the Company and 47.6% on a fully diluted basis.

IFRS 16

Employees

The Group employed as of 30 September 3,709 employees including hired staff, which is an increase since the previous quarter. The marine personnel amounts to 2,147 people, while 1,292 persons are employed within the subsea segment and 270 are employed onshore conducting marine management.

Health, Safety, Environment and Quality

There were not identified any significant HSEQ issues during the 3rd quarter.

Events after balance date

DOF Subsea signed in October a contract with Kværner to collaborate and deliver marine operations for Equinor's Hywind Tampen Project. The contract will be executed in a 50/50 partnership with Kværner. Hywind Tampen will be the world's largest floating offshore wind farm and will supply electrical power to the oil and gas platforms at the Gullfaks and Snorre fields.

On the 30th October the shareholders agreed to reduce the Company's share capital from NOK 1,504 million to NOK 301 million by way of reducing the nominal value of the shares from NOK 5 to NOK 1. Following the share capital decrease, the Company's share capital is NOK 301 million divided into 300,887,779 shares.

The Company has in November entered into a share purchase agreement with two companies controlled by First Reserve to purchase 35% of DOF Subsea AS. Post the acquisition the Company is the sole shareholder of DOF Subsea AS.

Outlook

The North Sea markets within supply (PSV and AHTS) have proven better utilisation compared to the same quarter last year. Even with the modest improvement in earnings for the AHTS fleet, the rates and utilisation are not sustainable. The Company expects the market for both PSV and AHTS to weaken during the North Sea winter period. In Brazil the market is expected to be week the next 12 months and based on the fact that the Group has several contracts up for renewal in 2020 there is an increased risk regarding utilisation and earnings in this region. Earnings for the Subsea IMR fleet has been better in the quarter compared to the same period last year. However, the Company expects reduced rates and utilisation during the winter season, especially for the North Sea fleet.

The Group will maintain its strategy to secure the fleet on term contracts and is actively working on keeping the firm employment of the fleet as high as possible. The majority of the Group's high-end vessels are committed on firm contracts and represent the largest portion of the Group's backlog. The OSV sector has the last few years experienced very challenging market conditions and the recovery has taken longer than expected, nevertheless, the Group's backlog is still high.

A continuing weak market will increase the risk of lower utilisation and earnings of the Group's vessels and represents an increased liquidity risk for the Group. As previously reported, the Group has experienced that regular refinancing (rollover) of existing loan facilities has become challenging, and a short-term extension of these facilities has been secured. In parallel the Board and management have been working on a long-term solution to secure satisfactory financing and liquidity for the Group throughout a continuing demanding period. The discussions with the relevant stakeholders have been constructive and the progress is good, however no assurance can be given that the Group will be successful in this respect. The effect of not being able to obtain a long-term financial solution will affect the classification of debt (described in note 11 ´Interest bearing debt´ to the quarterly accounts) and may also affect the ´going concern´ assumption. If the Group cannot be treated as ´going concern´, the valuation of the Group's assets must be further revised. The subsidiary DOF Subsea AS has applied for temporary deferral of instalments until 20th December. Approval has been received from the majority of the lenders, however the final outcome is uncertain as discussions are still ongoing. Even though there is uncertainty whether a long-term financial solution will be achieved, the Board of Directors and management still believe that a solution is obtainable within year end.

The Board of Directors expects today the Group's Ebitda for the 4th quarter to be weaker than the Ebitda in 3rd quarter.

Notes to the Accounts

Note 1 General

DOF ASA (the "Company") and its subsidiaries (together, the "Group") own and operate a fleet of PSV, AHTS, subsea vessels and service companies offering services to the subsea market worldwide.

The Company is a public limited company, which is listed on the Oslo Stock Exchange and incorporated and domiciled in Norway. The head office is located at Storebø in the municipality of Austevoll, Norway.

These condensed interim financial statements were approved for issue on 27 November 2019. These condensed interim financial statements have not been audited.

Basis of preparation

These condensed interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34, 'Interim financial reporting'. The condensed interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the annual financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, which have been prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Taxes on income in the interim periods are accrued using the tax rate that would be applicable to expected total annual profit or loss.

Estimates

The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expense. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

In preparing these condensed interim financial statements, the significant judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty were the same as those that applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2018, with the exception of changes in estimates that are required in determining the provision for income taxes.

Adoption of new standards from 1 January 2019

IFRS 16 Leases

IFRS 16 Leases has replaced the standard IAS 17 Leases and related interpretations. IFRS 16 Leases removes the current distinction between operating and financing leases for lessees and requires recognition of an asset (the right to use the leased item) and a financial liability representing its obligation to make lease payments. Lease payments are reflected as interest expense and a reduction of lease liabilities.

The Group has adopted the standard at its mandatory date 1 January 2019. The Group applied the simplified transition approach and comparative amounts for the year prior to first first adoption are not restated.

Reference is made to note 2 'Accounting policies' and note 36 'Adoption of new standard as from 01.01.2019 - IFRS 16 Leases' in the Groups annual report for 2018 for a detailed description of policy- and transition choices made upon the implementation of the standard. There have been no changes to these elements.

Please see note 14 for more information.

Note 4 Operating income

The Group's operating income streams are a result of the Group's Time Charter contracts and Project Contracts.

Time Charter revenue is based on contracts where the Group deliver a vessel including crew, to a client. The charterer determines, within the contractual limits, how the vessel is to be utilised. A Time Charter contract consists of a bareboat component and a service component. The bareboat period starts from the time the vessel is made available to the customer and expires on the agreed return date. The Bareboat component will normally be within the range 30-80% of the total contract value. The service component covering crew on board the vessel. The service component is within the scope of IFRS 15, while the bareboat component is within the scope of IAS 17/IFRS 16. Both the service and the bareboat are recognised as revenue over the lease period on a straight-line basis. There is no time charter revenue when the vessels are off hire.

Project revenue is based on contracts where the Group utilises its vessels, equipment, crew and the onshore project organisation to perform tailor made service on the client's installations and/or assets. The project revenue is recognised over time.

Both Time Charter contracts and Project contracts are contracts with customers where the Group is compensated based on a fixed day rate for vessel, equipment and personnel. Some of the project contracts will from time to time be lump sum contracts based on a fixed fee for the total service and/or construction delivered.

Note 5 Hedges

The Group applies cash flow hedge accounting related to foreign exchange rate risk on expected highly probable income in USD, using a non-derivative financial hedging instrument. This hedging relationship is described below.

Cash flow hedge involving future highly probable income

The Group applies hedge accounting related to the cash flow hedging of expected highly probable income in USD, from its operations in Brazil.

The cash flow hedges hedge a portion of the foreign currency risk arising from highly probable income in USD relating to time charter contracts on vessels owned by the company Norskan Offshore Ltda.

The hedging instruments are portions of the companies' long term debt denominated in USD. The risk being hedged in each hedging relationship is the spot element of the forward currency rate of USD/BRL. The future highly probable income has a significant exposure to the spot element as the spot element is the main part of the forward rate. The long term debt is translated from USD to BRL at spot rate on the balance sheet date every reporting period.

The effective portion of changes in the fair value of the instruments that are designated and qualify as cash flow hedges is recognised in other comprehensive income. The gain or loss relating to the ineffective portion is recognised immediately in the income statement. For 3rd quarter an ineffective portion (unrealised loss) is recognised in the finance result with NOK 550 million.

Amounts accumulated in equity are reclassified to profit or loss in the periods when the expected income is recognised.

Newbuild

Newbuild balance for 2018 relates to other subsea equipment under construction. For presentation purposes the newbuild balance has been allocated to the related asset group in 2019, this also includes the opening balance of newbuilding that was allocated to ROVs and operating equipments.

Impairment

Impairment indicators are observed and an impairment test for vessels in the Group has been done. Impairment tests are performed in line with accounting principles presented in annual report for 2018. Impairment of vessels in the amount of NOK 524 million has been recognised in the 3rd quarter of 2019 and NOK 708 million year to date 30 September 2019.

In addition an impairment in the joint ventures of NOK 184 million has been done in 3rd quarter 2019 and NOK 204 million year to date 30 September 2019.

Note 7 Goodwill

Goodwill is reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of goodwill may not be recoverable.

Continued challenging market situation has resulted in lower earnings and higher risk in the segments for a longer period and market recovery takes longer than previously assumed. To reflect the challenging market situation and delay in the market recovery, the management has reassessed estimated future cash flows and recognised an impairment of NOK 209 million in Q3 2019.

Balance at 30 September 2019 amounts to NOK 85 million and allocated to the subsea segment.

Note 8 Taxes

Deferred tax asset is recognised on the basis of unused tax losses carried forward and temporary differences to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient future earnings available, against which the tax losses carried forward and temporary differences can be utilised.

Continued challenging market situation has resulted in lower earnings and increased risk in some tax jurisdictions. In this context the inherent uncertainty in forecasting, timing of furture taxable profits and reversal of termporary differences has increased. As a result, the management has revised its estimates for future taxable profits and has recognised a tax cost of NOK 763 million. NOK 523 million is recognised as tax cost and NOK 240 million is related to cash flow hedge and recognised as other comprehensive income.

At end of Q3 2019 the Group has recognised deferred tax asset of NOK 207 million, mainly related to operation in Brazil.

Non-current loans provided by Eksportfinans are invested as restricted deposits. The repayment terms of the loans from Eksportfinans are equivalent with the reduction of the deposits. The loans are fully repaid in 2020. The cash deposit is included in restricted deposits.

Current portion of debt to credit institutions amounts to NOK 4,048 million including balloon payments of NOK 1,818 million, ordinary instalments of NOK 1,580 million and drawn credit facilities of NOK 650 million. The credit facilities are non-current and may be redrawn.

Financing

As reported in 2nd quarter, the Board and management are working on a long-term refinancing solution for the Group which include a dialogue with the banks, bondholders and the main shareholders. In parallel the Group has agreed a waiver on existing short-term facilities until the 2nd half of December. The discussions with the relevant stakeholders have been constructive and the progress is good, however no assurance can be given that the Group will be successful in this respect. The effect of not being able to obtain a long-term financial solution will affect the classification of debt and may also affect the ´going concern´ assumption. If the Group cannot be treated as ´going concern´, the valuation of the Group's assets must be further revised.

The effect of not being able to obtain a long-term financial solution, may result in a reclassification of the Group's non-current debt to credit institutions and bond loans from non-current debt to current debt. If a reclassification should occur, the consequence will be that the amount of current debt will increase by NOK 9.6 billion as of 30 September 2019.
