As we close out the last quarter of 2024, I am excited to share an update on our company's progress and some significant accomplishments this quarter.
Our strategy continues to show strong results, thanks to favorable chartering strategy and our collective efforts. GEOS fleet have had good utilization at very attractive day rates vs the spot market. Tender activity remains high despite a slow spot marked throughout the quarter, and we've extended and secured new contracts at competitive rates, which will ensure high operational activity through the winter season and into 2025 and 2026.
One major highlight has been the successful conclusion of management agreements for two new vessels into our fleet by mid/- end October 24, an achievement that reinforces our commitment to growth and our readiness to meet increased market demand which subsequent benefit GEOS as group regarding;
Combined with our earlier acquisition of the Vroon fleet, this expansion demonstrates our team's skill in managing growth and integration within a rapidly evolving industry.
Looking forward, we continue to advance our vision for growth and success. With an increasingly modern fleet, the recent purchase of a W2W gangway system, and a focus on operational excellence, innovation, and customer satisfaction, we are well-positioned to capitalize on new opportunities as we enter a new quarter in 2025.
Best Regards,
Per Ivar Fagervoll, CEO – Golden Energy Offshore Services ASA

In Q4 2024, the company achieved time charter equivalent earnings of approximately TNOK 265.4 per day for vessels in operation, alongside an impressive fleet utilization rate of 96.9%.
The Group operated seven PSVs and two OCVs in the market, total of nine sophisticated vessels, all performing successfully throughout 2024. Activity levels remained high this quarter, continuing the momentum from Q3. Operations have been strong over the quarter, and we are pleased to report that this increased activity has been translated into substantial improvements in our financial results.
The fundamental market drivers for PSVs remain positive but expect moderate 2025 and stronger market in 2026/2027, supporting a positive market outlook for the years to come although 2024 did not play out as strongly as by many predicted. GEOS secured good coverage early in 2024 for the fleet which gave good results vs actual market. With a solid backlog, competitive rates, and high fleet valuations, all indicators point to sustained market strength in the coming months. Additionally, we are excited about the operations with our two new vessels, Energy Sphynx and Savanah, both now fixed on long term contract with solid counter parties and demanding work scopes, which further enhancing our capacity and service offerings.
Market Risks: The offshore services industry is highly dependent on the oil and gas industry. Fluctuations in oil and gas prices can significantly impact on the demand for offshore services.
Operational Risks: These include risks related to safety, technology, and equipment. Offshore operations are inherently risky, and accidents or failures can lead to significant costs.
Regulatory Risks: The industry is subject to numerous regulations related to environmental protection, safety, and other areas. Changes in these regulations can have a significant impact on operations and costs.
Financial Risks: This includes risks related to currency exchange rates, interest rates, and access to capital. Companies in this industry often have significant capital expenditure and may need to rely on external financing.
Geopolitical Risks: Offshore operations often take place in different parts of the world, and companies can be affected by political instability, changes in government policies, or international sanctions.
Climate Change and Energy Transition Risks: There is an increasing global focus on climate change and a shift towards renewable energy. This could reduce the demand for offshore oil and gas services and impact on the long-term viability of the industry.
Golden Energy Offshore Services is committed to the protection of the environment and place high priority on environmental considerations in managing its business. We support initiatives that promote environmental responsibility. In addition to complying with environmental legislation, we will strive to do more where it makes sense, recognizing that individual contributions make a difference.
We commit to energy management and define goals for reducing fuel oil consumption, give high focus on Green Operations, Sustainability and be in the front seat when developing and testing new technology. How well we manage to reach our goals is thoroughly proven. We have a high focus on how our environmental footprint can be reduced, and how our operations can be optimized to contribute to the United Nations sustainability goals.

Revenues increased by NOK 94.4 million (119%) to NOK 173.9 million in Q4 2024 from NOK 79.5 million in Q4 2023. The increase is mainly attributable to a strong and favorable chartering strategy as well as our collective efforts in expanding of the fleet, which was now at nine vessels in total for the entire quarter.
Operational expenses increased by NOK 12.5 million (22%) to NOK 70.1 million in Q4 2024 compared to NOK 57.6 million in Q4 2023 due to increased operational costs following the expansion in fleet size, leading to a rise in management and administration fees. Additionally, operating expenses were also impacted by one-off fees for financial and legal services related to the possible uplisting on Oslo Børs.
For Q4 2024, the Group reported EBITDA of NOK 103.8 million, an increase from NOK 94.7 million in Q4 2023. For the FY 2024 the EBITDA improved from NOK 127.1 million in 2023 to NOK 219.8 million in 2024.
The Group had depreciation and amortization expenses of NOK 22.2 million in Q4 2024, in contrast to NOK 12.6 million in Q4 2023, primarily due to the expansion in fleet size from three to seven vessels owned.
EBIT decreased by NOK 0.6 million to NOK 81.5 million in Q4 2024 compared to NOK 82.1 million in Q4 2023.
Net financial items for Q4 2024 were negative NOK 102.4 million compared to negative NOK 37.3 million for Q4 2023, an increase of NOK 65.1 million. The movement from last year is mainly due to changes in currency rates NOK/USD, and the unrealized currency exchange loss is significant.
Basic earnings per share in Q4 2024 were NOK -0.83 compared to NOK 0.25 in Q4 2023.
The Group's total assets increased by NOK 55.6 million reaching NOK 1 614.5 million, compared to NOK 1 558.9 million at year end 2023. By the end of Q4 2024, the Group's equity ratio stood at 27.6 percent, compared to 34 percent recorded at the close of 2023.
The company received a fleet valuation as of 31 December 2024 from two brokers. The fair value assessment resulted in no indication of write-downs and showed stable broker values compared with the previous quarter.
The groups stocks and accounts receivables and other receivables have increased as a natural consequence of the experienced expansion and growth.
In Q4 2024, the net cash flow from operating activities amounted to NOK 113.4 million, compared with an outflow of NOK 197.6 million observed in the corresponding quarter of 2023. The primary factors contributing to this change are unrealized exchange differences, with the NOK weakening against the USD.
Regarding investing activities, there was a net cash outflow of NOK 6,7 million in Q4 2024, compared to a NOK 614.4 million outflow in the same quarter of the previous year. The cash outflow in this period of 2024 is largely attributed to capitalized periodic maintenance and dry docking.

For financing activities, the net cash outflow was NOK 71.4 million in Q4 2024, as opposed to a net cash inflow of NOK 774.3 million in the same period in 2023. The cash outflow in 2024 consists of interest paid and debt repayment.
By the end of December 2024, the cash balance amounted to NOK 37.6 million and a net interest-bearing debt of NOK 931.8 million.

Golden Energy Offshore Services' financial information is prepared in accordance with IFRS® Accounting Standards as adopted by the EU. In addition, it is management's intention to provide alternative performance measures (APMs) that are regularly reviewed by management to enhance the understanding of Group's performance, but not instead of the financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS. The alternative performance measures presented may be determined or calculated differently by other companies. The principles for measuring the alternative performance measures are in accordance with internal reporting to Group Executive Management (chief operating decision makers) and are consistent with financial information used for assessing performance and allocating resources.

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization and impairment (EBITDA) are key financial parameters for the Group. This measure is useful to users of financial information in evaluating operating profitability on a more variable cost basis as it excludes depreciation. The EBITDA margin presented is defined as EBITDA divided by total revenues.
Adjusted Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation, amortization and impairment (EBITDA) is based on EBITDA but adjusted for transactions of a non-recurring nature. Such non-recurring transactions include, but are not limited to restructuring costs, gains or losses related to sale of vessels, acquisition-related costs and other nonrecurring income and expenses.
Earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) is useful to users with regard to the Group's financial information in evaluating operating profitability on the cost basis as well as the historic cost related to past business combinations and capex. The EBIT margin presented is defined as EBIT divided by total revenue.
Adjusted Earnings before interest, tax (EBIT) is based on EBIT but adjusted for transactions of a non-recurring nature. Such non-recurring transactions include, but are not limited to restructuring costs, gains or losses related to sale of vessels, acquisition-related costs and other non-recurring income and expenses.
Net interest-bearing debt is non-current interest-bearing debt plus current interest-bearing liabilities less cash and cash equivalents. The measure helps the users of financial information assess the Group's liquidity situation.
Time charter equivalent (TCE) is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. The TCE presented is defined as gross revenues during the relevant period divided by the number of available vessel days during the period.
Equity ratio is defined as Total equity divided by total equity and liabilities.
Capital expenditure is the same as payment for fixed assets.
