Eidesvik Offshore ASA Report for 4 th Quarter 2021

Highlights in 4th Quarter 2021

In 4th Quarter 2021 Eidesvik Offshore ASA ("Eidesvik" or the "Group") generated a consolidated EBITDA of MNOK 30.3, compared to MNOK 10.0 in 4th Quarter 2020.

Eidesvik and the technology group Wärtsilä signed a landmark cooperation agreement aimed at converting an offshore supply vessel to operate with an ammonia-fuelled combustion engine with required fuel supply and safety system. The "Apollo" project will be the first of its kind ever in the world, and has a provisional completion target of mid 2024.

Wintershall Dea declared options to extend the contract for the supply vessel "Viking Princess" from January 2022 in direct continuation of the current contract, extending the firm period to January 2023.

After more than 16 years as CEO and President of Eidesvik, Jan Fredrik Meling retired from his position on December 31, 2021. The Group's CCO Gitte Gard Talmo was appointed to replace Meling in October 2021.

Eidesvik entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with Aker BP and Alma, a venture by Clara Venture Labs (under name change from Prototech AS) to explore opportunities for retrofit installation of Alma's ammonia fuel cell technology on two offshore support vessels, Eidesvik's "Viking Lady" and Aker BP-owned "NS Frayja" (currently under Eidesvik's management).

Equinor Energy AS declared options to extend the contract for the supply vessel "Viking Queen" from end of January 2022 in direct continuation of the current contract, extending the firm period to end of May 2022.

Main highlights in 2021

In 2021 Eidesvik Offshore ASA ("Eidesvik" or the "Group") generated a consolidated EBITDA of MNOK 178.7, compared to MNOK 131.1 in 2020.

Eidesvik exercised the PUT-option for its shares in Shearwater GeoServices Holding AS ("Shearwater"), effectively selling all its shares in Shearwater to CGG SA for a total consideration of USD 30 million in cash. The cash settlement was received in January 2021.

Eidesvik was awarded a time charter with Siemens Gamesa Renewable Energy GmbH & Co. KG for "Acergy Viking". The contract commenced in direct continuation of the current contract extending the firm period until end January 2027. "Acergy Viking" will during the ongoing yard stay be renamed to "Viking Wind Power".

Eidesvik sold the PSV "Viking Athene", and delivery of the vessel took place in April 2021. The vessel went out of the North Sea supply vessel market and is now utilized by the new owner as a Farming Service Vessel.

Eidesvik was awarded a contract with Havfram AS ("Havfram") for the CSV "Viking Neptun". The contract commenced in early January 2022 with the firm period expiring by the end of 3rd Quarter 2022. In addition, Havfram was granted options for further extension.

Eidesvik was awarded a 3-year time charter contract with Aker BP ASA ("Aker BP") for the PSV "Viking Lady". The contract was awarded in direct continuation of the current charter under the companies' frame agreement. The contract commenced in January 2022, and Aker BP was granted options for further extension.

Eidesvik reached an agreement with its financial institutions for refinancing of its debt. With a combination of extension of debt maturities and reduced amortization payments, the agreed terms significantly strengthen the Group's financial position. The agreed terms provide mechanisms for extension of final maturities of debt facilities from the end of 2022 to the end of 2023, and there will be no final maturities until year end 2023. The extension is subject to Eidesvik meeting certain financial and operational triggers.

Subsequent events

On January 12, 2022, Eidesvik Neptun AS, a subsidiary of Eidesvik, entered into a Memorandum of Agreement ("MoA") with Dredging, Environmental and Marine Engineering NV ("DEME"), for the sale of the CSV "Viking Neptun", following a letter of intent being entered into between DEME and Eidesvik on December 23, 2021 The MoA is expected to complete in the 4th Quarter of 2022, post completion of the ongoing contract with Havfram.

Based on the terms of the MoA, Eidesvik has reversed MNOK 220.7 in previous impairments on the vessel in the 4th Quarter 2021 accounts. Further, at completion of the MoA in the 4th Quarter of 2022, Eidesvik expects to book a gain from the sale of approximately MNOK 170. In total, the expected reversal of previous impairments and expected gain from the sale will significantly increase shareholders' equity in the consolidated accounts when the vessel is delivered to the buyer. In addition, Eidesvik maintains full rights to all earnings from the vessel until delivery to DEME is scheduled to take place in the 4th Quarter of 2022. At completion of the MoA, Eidesvik's liquidity position is expected to improve by approximately MNOK 330 from the sale.

Results 2021

The interim accounts have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34. The interim accounts for 2021 and corresponding figures for 2020 have not been audited.

The Group's consolidated total operating income for 2021 was MNOK 587.8 (total operating income for 2020 was MNOK 530.8). Operating result before depreciation (EBITDA) was MNOK 178.7 (MNOK 131.1), and operating result was MNOK 108.6 (MNOK -202.4), whereof MNOK 220.7 is related to the reversed impairments on "Viking Neptun". Result from joint ventures and associated companies of MNOK -5.9 (MNOK -5.2). Net financial items were MNOK -77.9 (MNOK 67.8).

Result after tax for 2021 amounted to MNOK 30.7 (MNOK -132.4 for 2020), whereof MNOK -15.7 (MNOK -123.6) was the result for the shareholders of the parent. This resulted in earnings per share of NOK -0.25 (NOK -1.99).

Balance sheet and liquidity per December 31, 2021

Current assets at December 31, 2021, was MNOK 530.9 (MNOK 877.1 at December 31, 2020), and cash balance was MNOK 330.4 (MNOK 429.2), whereof MNOK 9.4 is restricted cash and MNOK 17.9 is funding restricted to the ShipFC ammonia project.

Assets held for sale at December 31, 2021, was MNOK 1,022.5 (MNOK 0 at December 31, 2020).

Book equity at December 31, 2021, was MNOK 521.1 (MNOK 479.0 at December 31, 2020), i.e. an equity ratio of 19% (16%). The total booked equity per share at December 31, 2021 was NOK 8.38 (NOK 7.73). The corresponding market quote at Oslo Stock Exchange closed at NOK 4.07 (NOK 3.04). This represents a market capitalization of MNOK 253.0 (MNOK 188.9).

Value in use calculations of the consolidated fleet indicated impairments of the book value per December 31, 2021, and impairments of MNOK 14.7 have been charged to the accounts. Due to entered sale agreement for "Viking Neptun", previous impairments of MNOK 220.7 related to the vessel have been reversed. An average fair value assessment conducted by two independent brokers, evaluates the consolidated part of the fleet value free of charter, to MNOK 2,812 (MNOK 2,727 at December 31, 2020), which indicates an excess value before tax of MNOK 881 (MNOK 804) compared to the book value of the vessels. The Board is aware of the low turnover for the type of vessels Eidesvik owns, and that there is uncertainty regarding the market values in the current market.

Net interest-bearing debt at December 31, 2021, was MNOK 1,695.6 (MNOK 1,980.5 at December 31, 2020). The decrease in net interest–bearing debt is mainly a result of instalments.

Cash flow from operating activities per December 31, 2021, amounted to MNOK 177.1 (MNOK 254.4 per December 31, 2020).

Cash flow from investment activities per December 31, 2021, was MNOK 228.5 (MNOK -77.5 per December 31, 2020).

Cash flow from financing activities per December 31, 2021, of MNOK -504.4 (MNOK -156.1 per December 31, 2020) consisted of payments of interest, deferred installments on secured debt, debt on sold vessel, and prepayment related to the refinancing of the Group.

Variation in the operation of vessels in 2021 compared to 2020

Supply

The supply segment's EBITDA in 2021 was MNOK 67.0 (MNOK 55.9 in the corresponding period in 2020), an increase of MNOK 11.1. This is mainly a result of decrease in operating expenses.

Subsea

The subsea/offshore wind segment including shares of Joint Venture's EBITDA in 2021 was MNOK 145.9 (MNOK 114.1 in the corresponding period in 2020), an increase of MNOK 31.8. The main reasons for the increase are that "Viking Neptun" and "Subsea Viking" were on contract during most of the year (versus "Viking Neptun" only on contract from 2nd Quarter 2020, and "Subsea Viking" on standby contract from 2nd Quarter 2020). In 2021, the consolidated part of the segment recorded an EBITDA of MNOK 128.4 (MNOK 76.3).

Seismic

The seismic segment's EBITDA in 2021 was MNOK 7.7 (MNOK 4.1 in the corresponding period in 2020), an increase of MNOK 3.6. The main reason for the increase is related to the 130 days bareboat contract for "Veritas Viking" (versus in warm lay up most of the 1st Half of 2020, and lay up rest of 2020).

Financing

On August 27, 2021, Eidesvik announced that it had agreed on a term sheet ("Term Sheet") with its financial institutions for refinancing of its debt. With a combination of extension of debt maturities and reduced amortization payments, the agreed terms significantly strengthened the Group's financial position. On September 10, 2021, the final agreements and documentation were in place and the new terms for the Group's financing became effective.

The agreed terms provide mechanisms for extension of final maturities of debt facilities from the end of 2022 to the end of 2023, and there will be no final maturities until year end 2023. The extension is subject to Eidesvik meeting certain financial and operational triggers.

Fixed amortization payments were significantly reduced. On the date of agreeing and signing final documentation, debt repayments of approximately NOK 309 million were made. There were no further fixed debt amortization in 2021. Scheduled fixed amortizations for 2022 were reduced from approximately NOK 320 million to approximately NOK 112 million. For 2023, the fixed amortization is approximately NOK 80 million. No changes to interest margins were made, and interest will be paid as normal during the period.

In addition to fixed amortization, a cash sweep mechanism was agreed. The cash sweep will be used for additional debt repayment if cash levels are above agreed thresholds, on a facility-by-facility basis. The new facility cash sweep mechanism replaced the previous corporate cash sweep mechanism. Please see Note 15 for further information.

Market and future outlook

PSV Market

The number of large PSV's (900+ m2) trading in the North Sea market has been stable throughout 2021. The demand increased slightly, affecting the utilization levels positively with an increase from approximately 70% to approximately 78% over the year. The underlying drivers for PSV demand are positive, with strong oil and gas prices and an expected increase in rig activity. The latter is expected to lead to a moderately higher demand and higher utilization- and rate levels in 2022, followed by a further increase in demand in 2023 and beyond.

As stricterrequirements for environmentally friendly operations are imposed on both vessel operators and clients, our medium to long term outlook for large environmentally friendly PSV's remains optimistic. We expect this to be positive for Eidesvik's fleet of PSVs.

Subsea and Offshore Wind Markets

The subsea segment experienced increase in both rate and utilization levels during 2021. The subsea contractors continued to grow their backlog through the year with multiple contract awards reported.

The offshore wind market had an active year, and by start of the summer season, vessel availability was limited. The increased activity in the subsea market, in combination with higher activity in the offshore wind market, is expected to put further pressure on vessel availability. Also for the offshore wind market, rate and utilization have improved year on year. Several long-term SOV contracts were awarded in this growing market. Our outlook for this segment remains positive. We expect activity and vessel demand to increase in the coming years.

Seismic Market

The ocean bottom seismic market continues to improve, with the main companies reporting improved outlooks. We are positive that we will secure more work for our vessels in this segment this year.

Notes to the accounts

Note 1 - Accounting principles

The accounts have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

There are no changes in accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements compared with those followed in the preparation of the Group's annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2020.

Note 2 - Financial risk

Interest and foreign exchange risk

The Group has its income mainly in NOK, USD and EUR, while the material operating expenses are in NOK. Therefore, the Group is considerably exposed to fluctuations in the exchange rate of USD/NOK and EUR/NOK. To reduce this risk a considerable share of the Group's debt is drawn in USD, and parts of the liquidity surplus in foreign exchange is sold forward. The financial investments are valued in USD. This implies that fluctuations in USD also results in accounted fluctuations as these assets have to be converted to NOK before recognized in the Group's accounts. In the period following the balance date, a weaker foreign exchange rate will result in reported foreign exchange gains related to debt and forward contracts in foreign exchange, but will also result in reduced value of long term charter parties in USD (not recognized in the accounts).

The Group has debt in USD and NOK and is exposed to changes in interest rate levels. The Group's interest rate risk is managed through interest swap and cap derivatives, and fixed-rate loans. As a consequence of this, the financial risk of high interest payments is reduced. The following Quarters an increased interest level will result in increased interest expenses, but will also result in increased market value of fixed interest loans. The share of loans with interest swap or fixed interest is 34% for NOK loans and 32% for USD loans per December 31, 2021. Including cap agreements, the Group's share of loans with interest swap/cap or fixed interest per December 31, 2021, is 68% for NOK loans and 73% for USD loans.

Market risk

For 1st Quarter of 2022 contract coverage for all consolidated vessels and the JV vessel "Seven Viking" (incl. 4 vessels in lay up) is approx. 67%, and for 2022 the coverage is approx. 54%.

Newbuild risk

The Group has per December 31, 2021, no vessels under construction.

Credit risk

The Group's customers are mainly relatively solid companies with ability to meet contractual commitments. For most contract parties the risk for not fulfilling their commitments is considered relatively low.

Liquidity risk

The liquidity position is assessed as satisfactory for the next 12 months considering the agreed refinancing in 3rd Quarter 2021.

Note 3 - Seasonal variations

The interim accounts are moderately influenced by seasonal variations. Reference is made to the chapter "Market and future outlook" and the "Contract status".

Note 4 - Special transactions

Other revenues are related to the sale of "Viking Athene", distribution from Den Norske Krigsforsikring and reversal of previous write-down of paid installments on receivables from Oceanic Seismic Vessels AS. See Note 5 in the Annual Accounts for 2020 for further details.

Note 5 - Estimates

Due to entering the sale agreement for "Viking Neptun", a reversal of previous impairments of MNOK 220.7 was recorded in the 4th Quarter 2021. No other changes in estimates materially influencing the interim results or balance have occurred. Due to observed impairment indicators, the vessels' book values have been tested for impairments per December 31, 2021. Based on these tests, impairments of MNOK 14.7 have been charged to the accounts. The average WACC used in the calculations per December 31, 2021, is 9.0%.

No new long-term debt was drawn during the 4th Quarter of 2021. The Group's debt was refinanced in the 3rd Quarter 2021 with amendments in the instalment plan. Reference is made to Note 15 for further information.

Note 7 - Dividends

No dividend has been paid in 2021 (2020: 0) in accordance with the covenants of the financial refinancing.

Note 8 - Operating Segments

Time Charter revenue is based on contracts where the Group delivers a vessel including crew, to a client. The charterer determines, within the contractual limits, how the vessel is to be utilized. 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 20-80% of the total contract value. The Bareboat component is within the scope of IFRS 16. Both the service and the Bareboat are recognized as revenue over the lease period on a straight-line basis. There is no Time Charter revenue when the vessels are off-hire.

Note 15 - The refinancing

On August 27, 2021, Eidesvik announced that it had agreed on a term sheet ("Term Sheet") with its financial institutions for refinancing of its debt. On September 10, 2021, the final agreements and documentation were in place and the new terms for the Group's financing became effective.

The agreed terms provide mechanisms for extension of final maturities of debt facilities from the end of 2022 to the end of 2023, and there will be no final maturities until year end 2023. The extension is subject to Eidesvik meeting certain financial and operational triggers.

Summary of the refinancing

Amortization:

  • Facility prepayment of approximately NOK 209 million was made on the date of signing and final documentation. This was a combination of prepayment of agreed instalments for H2 2021 and surplus cash on facility levels as per June 30, 2021.
  • NOK 100 million in up-front prepayment from corporate cash was made on the date of signing and final documentation. This was distributed pro-rata to the financial institutions based on outstanding debt per Q2 2021, after facility prepayment.
  • In 2022, scheduled amortization amounts to approximately NOK 112 million, in total for the Group.
  • In H1 2023, scheduled amortization amounts to approximately NOK 8 million in total for the Group. Depending on market conditions related to one vessel, additional NOK 24 million may become payable as fixed amortization and distributed pro-rata among the financial institutions during H1 2023 based on the outstanding debt under each facility per January 1, 2023.
  • In H2 2023, scheduled amortization amounts to approximately NOK 72 million in total for the Group.
  • Cash sweep: During the refinancing period, all excess cash above certain threshold levels with respect to each facilities agreement shall be applied towards repayment of the outstanding debt under that facilities agreement, in inverse order of maturity. Excess cash will be measured semi-annualy.
  • o Per December 31, 2021, cash sweep of MNOK 16.1 was calculated and will be paid in March 2022.

Interest rates:

  • No amendments.

Financial coventants:

  • Minimum free liquidity of NOK 70 million on a consolidated basis.

  • Positive working capital (current assets less current liabilities, excluding current portion of long term debt).

  • Loan to value: Suspended until the end of the refinancing period.

Other covenants:

  • Change of control (no amendments):
  • o If Eidesvik Invest AS or the Eidesvik family controls less than 33.4% of the shares and votes in the Group, or
    • o If someone other than Eidesvik Invest AS gains negative control in the Group

Other conditions:

  • Cash pooling: There will be no cash pooling between the subsidiaries in Eidesvik. To the extent necessary, Eidesvik Offshore ASA may transfer a subordinated, non-cash interest bearing and assigned intercompany loans for payments of upcoming liabilities in any facility. Any such loan having been received in any facility must be repaid in full to Eidesvik prior to any calculation of excess cash or payment of any cash sweep under the relevant facility.
  • Sale of none-core vessels: Eidesvik has identified and classified 4 vessels as none-core. According to the agreement, a plan regulating the sales process for these vessels was established.

Note 16 - Subsequent events

Eidesvik Neptun AS, a subsidiary of Eidesvik, entered January 12, 2022 into a Memorandum of Agreement ("MoA) with Dredging, Environmental and Marine Engineering NV ("DEME"), for the sale of the CSV "Viking Neptun". The MoA is expected to complete in the 4th Quarter of 2022, post completion of the ongoing contract with Havfram.

Based on the terms of the MoA, Eidesvik has reversed MNOK 220.7 in previous impairments on the vessel in the 4th Quarter 2021 accounts. Further, the book value of "Viking Neptun" is classified as "Assets held for sale" per December 31, 2021, and the associated debt is classified as "Liabilities related to Assets held for sale".

Other subsequent events have no material consequense for the accounts per December 31, 2021.

Appendix 1 – Alternative performance measures definitions

The Group's financial information is prepared in accordance with international financial reporting standards (IFRS). In addition, the Group discloses alternative performance measures as a supplement to the financial statement prepared in accordance with IFRS. Such performance measures are used to provide better insight into the operating performance, financing and future prospects of the Group and are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties.

The definitions of these measures are as follows:

  • Contract coverage: Number of future sold days compared with total actual available days (incl. vessels in layup), excluding options.
  • Backlog: Sum of undiscounted revenue related to secured contracts in the future.
  • Utilization: Actual days with revenue divided by total actual available days.
  • Equity Ratio: Equity divided by total assets
  • Net interest bearing debt: Interest bearing debt less current and non-current interest bearing receivables and cash and cash equivalents. The use of term "net debt" does not necessarily mean cash included in the calculation are available to settle debt if included in the term. Reference is made to Note 12.
  • EBITDA: Operating result (earnings) before depreciation, impairment, amortisation, net financial costs and taxes is a key financial parameter. The term is useful for assessing the profitability of operations, as it is based on variable costs and excludes depreciation, impairment and amortised costs related to investments. EBITDA is also important in evaluating performance relative to competitors. See table below for matching to the accounts.
  • EBIT: Operating result (earnings) before net financial costs and taxes. See table below for matching to the accounts.
  • Working capital: Current assets less short-term liabilities.
  • Minimum market value clause: Booked value of an asset shall not be lower than a given ratio compared to outstanding debt on the same asset.
