Hafnia Limited Condensed Consolidated Interim Financial Information Q4 and Full Year 2024

1

Following a strong first nine months in 2024, the product tanker market softened in the fourth quarter, impacted by crude sector cannibalization of the product tanker space and shorter voyages, though partly offset by high daily loadings.

While the market dynamics shifted in the fourth quarter, Hafnia demonstrated resilience in navigating the market, delivering a net profit of USD 79.6 million in Q4 2024. This brings our full-year net profit to USD 774.0 million, marking another year of strong performance.

Our adjacent fee-generating business segments continued to perform well, recording full-year revenue of USD 35.2 million, and our net asset value (NAV)1 at year end stood at approximately USD 3.8 billion (USD 7.63 per share /~NOK 86.34).

The dislocation between our share price and NAV in late 2024 presented an opportunistic moment for share buybacks. Completed on January 24, 2025, we repurchased ~2.8% of the outstanding shares (14,382,255 shares) at approximately 70% of NAV, for an average of USD 5.33 per share and total consideration of USD 76.7 million. Capital utilized for buybacks in December has been deducted from the total payout before declaring Q4 dividends, ensuring combined shareholder returns align with our payout ratio policy.

At the end of Q4, our net Loan-to-Value (LTV) ratio was 23.2%, increasing from Q3 mainly due to a decline in the market value of our vessels. Given that, I am pleased to announce a payout ratio of 80% for the quarter, including USD 49.1 million utilized in share buybacks in December. As a result, we will distribute a total of USD 14.6 million or USD 0.0294 per share in dividends.

Including share buybacks, our full-year payout reached USD 640.8 million, representing a payout ratio of 82.8%.

While the fourth quarter saw rate pressures from increased crude tanker cannibalization, trade volumes and tonne-miles remain at elevated levels, supported by strong global demand. Tanker rates also strengthened with the seasonal winter market. Looking ahead to 2025, while near-term market dynamics are fluid, the fundamental drivers of our business remain solid. The evolving nature of sanctions, tariffs and developments in the Red Sea will continue to influence market dynamics. Importantly, long-term supply fundamentals on the tanker side remain firm, with the current orderbook of approximately 22% offset by an ageing global product tanker fleet and the increasing number of vessels subject to sanctions involving Russia, Iran and Venezuela. Furthermore, LR2s comprise over 50% of the new tonnage expected in the next few years, and historically, 70% of LR2 capacity has been absorbed into the dirty petroleum products trade.

As of February 13, 2025, 67% of the Q1 earning days are covered at an average of USD 23,989 per day, and 25% is covered at USD 24,062 per day for 2025.

Reflecting our fleet renewal strategy and commitment to a sustainable maritime future, we have in January welcomed Ecomar Gascogne, the first of four 49,800 dwt dual-fuel Methanol Chemical IMO-II MRs, ordered through our joint venture with Socatra of France. Two additional vessels are scheduled for delivery later this year, with the fourth in 2026 all time-chartered to TotalEnergies for a multi-year period. These vessels, running on both conventional fuel and methanol, mark a key step in our decarbonization journey.

In addition, I am proud to announce our recent joint arrangement with Cargill to launch Seascale Energy. This aims to transform marine fuel procurement services by delivering customers worldwide with cost efficiencies, transparency and access to sustainable fuel innovations.

As we conclude 2024 and look forward to 2025, I wish to express my sincere gratitude to the Hafnia team, both onshore and at sea, as well as our valued partners for the excellent results we have achieved together. We will remain focused on making strategic investments in technology and innovation while leveraging our extensive fleet capabilities to drive sustainable growth and solidify our position as a global leader in the product and chemical tanker market.

Highlights – Q4 and Full year 2024 CONTINUED

Market Review & Outlook

Throughout the first nine months of 2024, the product tanker market sustained an extended period of high earnings, driven by strong cargo volumes and tonne-miles, as vessels rerouted from the Suez Canal to the Cape of Good Hope. In the fourth quarter, tanker rates came under pressure due to the increased cannibalization from the crude sector. A key driver of the market, daily loadings of Clean Petroleum Products (CPP), dropped in the beginning of Q4, mainly due to refinery maintenance and market inefficiencies. However, since December 2024 and in the beginning of 2025, CPP loadings on Handy to LR2 tankers have increased significantly. This was largely driven by reduced crude tanker cannibalization and higher export volumes from the US Gulf.

Ton-days for product tankers have also recovered after the dip in early Q4, while earnings have improved less profoundly. This is mainly due to subdued market sentiment, limited cross-hemisphere trading and shorter voyage lengths. Laden voyage lengths dropped by approximately 12%, mainly as a result of increased refinery output from the US Gulf, which has largely replaced Middle East output for European demand.

Global oil demand remained robust and rose seasonally in the fourth quarter, driven by a winter uptick in the Northern Hemisphere. According to the International Energy Agency (IEA), global oil demand increased by 1.4 million barrels per day in the fourth quarter, as a result of a seasonal uptick, lower fuel prices and increased US petrochemical activities. For the full year 2024, global oil demand has increased by 0.87 million barrels per day from 2023, and a further increase of 1.10 million barrels per day is expected for 2025.

Recent OFAC sanctions announced in January 2025, targeting tankers carrying Russia, Iran and Venezuela oil, will have a significant impact on oil flows and tanker markets. China and India have announced they will exclude sanctioned tankers from imports, and we estimate this replacement barrels impact to be equivalent to 100 Suezmax vessels. We have noticed a decline in ton-miles in the sanctioned fleet since, and we expect this to decrease further in the coming months. This will increase the utilization and tonne-mile impact for existing crude tankers, which will result in a significant reduction in cannibalization in the clean market.

On the supply side, the product tanker orderbook-to-fleet ratio is approximately 22% as of February 2025. However, longer term fundamentals are still positive as a growing number of tankers over 20 years old are likely scrapping candidates. Many of these vessels, which operate with lower utilization and are frequently involved in "dark trades," effectively reduce available fleet capacity. As a result, the overall supply balance is expected to remain manageable in the coming years.

Looking ahead, the product tanker market outlook is positive, supported by strong underlying demand and supply fundamentals. However, evolving geopolitical factors—including sanctions, tariffs, and disruptions in the Red Sea—will continue to influence trade flows and market dynamics.

Fleet

At the end of the quarter, Hafnia's fleet consisted of 115 owned vessels1 and 10 chartered-in vessels. The Group's total fleet includes 10 LR2s, 33 LR1s (including three bareboat-chartered in and three time-chartered in), 58 MRs of which nine are IMO II (including two bareboat-chartered in and seven time-chartered in), and 24 Handy vessels of which 18 are IMO II (including seven bareboat-chartered in).

The average estimated broker value of the owned fleet1 was USD 4,289 million, of which the LR2 vessels had a broker value of USD 609 million2 , the LR1 fleet had a broker value of USD 1,187 million2 , the MR fleet had a broker value of USD 1,721 million3 and the Handy vessels had a broker value of USD 772 million4 . The unencumbered vessels had a broker value of USD 402 million. The chartered-in fleet had a right-of-use asset book value of USD 18.7 million with a corresponding lease liability of USD 20.4 million.

1 Including bareboat chartered in vessels; six LR1s and four LR2s owned through 50% ownership in the Vista Shipping Joint Venture and two MRs owned through 50% ownership in the H&A Shipping Joint Venture 2 Including USD 336 million relating to Hafnia's 50% share of six LR1s and four LR2s owned through 50% ownership in the Vista Shipping Joint Venture

Cash and cash flows

Cash at bank and on hand1 amounted to USD 195.3 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: USD 141.6 million).

Operating activities generated a net cash inflow of USD 197.1 million in Q4 2024 (Q4 2023: net cash inflow of USD 187.8 million).

Cash flows from operating activities were principally utilised for vessel drydocking costs, repayments of borrowings and interest, payment of dividends to shareholders and share buybacks.

Investing activities resulted in a net cash inflow of USD 17.6 million in Q4 2024 (Q4 2023: net cash outflow of USD 46.5 million).

Financing activities resulted in a net cash outflow of USD 219.5 million in Q4 2024 (Q4 2023: net cash outflow of USD 114.8 million).

Dividend policy

Hafnia will target a quarterly payout ratio of net profit, adjusted for extraordinary items, of:

  • 50% payout of net profit if net loan-to-value is above 40%,
  • 60% payout of net profit if net loan-to-value is above 30% but equal to or below 40%,
  • 80% payout of net profit if net loan-to-value is above 20% but equal to or below 30%, and
  • 90% payout of net profit if net loan-to-value is equal to or below 20%.

Net loan-to-value is calculated as vessel bank and finance lease debt (excluding debt for vessels sold but pending legal completion), debt from the pool borrowing base facilities less cash at bank and on hand, divided by broker vessel values (100% owned vessels).

The final amount of dividend is to be decided by the Board of Directors. In addition to cash dividends, the Company may buy back shares as part of its total distribution to shareholders.

In deciding whether to declare a dividend and determining the dividend amount, the Board of Directors will take into account the Group's capital requirements, including capital expenditure commitments, financial condition, general business conditions, legal restrictions, and any restrictions under borrowing arrangements or other contractual arrangements in place at the time.

Dividend for Q4

The board has set the quarterly payout ratio at 80% for Q4 2024, which includes amounts utilized in share buybacks during the quarter. After deducting USD 49.1 million utilized for share buybacks in Q4 2024, the declared dividend amounts to USD 14.6 million, representing a dividend payout ratio of 18.4%. For further details, please refer to our stock exchange announcement on December 2, 2024, regarding the launch of the share buyback program.

Risk factors

The Group's results are largely dependent on the worldwide market for transportation of refined oil products. Market conditions for shipping activities are typically volatile and, as a consequence, the results may vary considerably from year to year. The market in broad terms is dependent upon two factors: the supply of vessels and the demand for oil products. The supply of vessels depends on the number of newbuilds entering the market, the demolition of older tonnage and legislation that limits the use of older vessels or sets new standards for vessels used in specific trades. The demand side depends mainly on developments in global economic activity.

The Group is also exposed to risk in respect of increases in operating costs, such as fuel oil costs. Fuel oil prices are affected by the global political and economic environment. For voyage contracts, the current fuel costs are priced into the contracts. Other risks that Management takes into account are interest rate risk, credit risk, liquidity risk and capital risk. These risks, along with mitigation strategies, are further described in section 2.3 of the Annual Report 2023 and note 26 of the consolidated financial statements of the Group for the financial year ended 2023 and are principal risks for the financial year 2024.

Responsibility statements

We confirm, to the best of our knowledge, that the condensed set of consolidated interim financial information ('Interim Financial Information') for the period from 1 January to 31 December 2024 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 – Interim Financial Reporting, and gives a true and fair view of the Group's assets, liabilities, financial position and income statement as a whole. We also confirm, to the best of our knowledge, that the Interim Financial Information includes a fair review of important events that have occurred during the financial year ended 31 December 2024 and their impact on the Interim Financial Information, a description of the principal risks and uncertainties for the remaining three months of the financial year, and major related party transactions.

The principal activity of the Company (together with its subsidiaries, the "Group") relates to the provision of global maritime services in the product tankers market.

This Interim Financial Information was authorised for issue by the Board of Directors of the Company on 27 February 2025.

Note 2: Basis of preparation

Statement of compliance

The Interim Financial Information has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 'Interim Financial Reporting'. The Interim Financial Information should be read in conjunction with the annual audited financial statements for the financial year ended 31 December 2023, which have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards ("IFRS"). The Interim Financial Information does not include all the information required for a complete set of financial statements prepared in accordance with IFRS standards. However selected explanatory notes are included to explain events and transactions that are significant to an understanding of the changes in the Group's financial position and performance since the last annual financial statements.

Note 3: Material accounting policies

Except as described below, the accounting policies applied in these interim financial statements are the same as those applied in the Group's consolidated financial statements as at and for the year ended 31 December 2023.

Amendments to published standards, effective in 2024 and subsequent years

The Group has applied the following amendments to IFRS for the first time for the annual period beginning on 1 January 2024:

  • Amendments to IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements:
    • a. Non-current Liabilities with Covenants
    • b. Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-Current
  • Amendments to IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback
  • Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures Supplier Finance Arrangements

The preparation of the Interim Financial Information requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. In preparing this Interim Financial Information, the judgements made by management in applying the Group's accounting policies and the key sources of estimation uncertainty are the same as those that are applied to the consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023.

a. The Group organises the commercial management of its fleet of vessels into ten (2023: nine) individual commercial pools: LR1, Panamax, LR2, MR, Handy, Chemical-MR, Chemical-Handy and Small, Intermediate and City ("Specialized") (2023: LR1, LR2, MR, Handy, Chemical-MR, Chemical-Handy and Small, Intermediate and City ("Specialized")). Each individual commercial pool constitutes a separate cash-generating unit ("CGU"). For vessels outside commercial pools and deployed on a time-charter basis, each of these vessels constitutes a separate CGU. Any time-chartered in vessels which are recognised as right of use ("ROU") assets by the Group and subsequently deployed in the commercial pools are included as part of the pool CGUs.

The Group evaluates whether there are indications that any vessel as at the reporting date is impaired. If any such indicators of impairment exist, the Group performs impairment testing in accordance with its accounting policy. The estimation of the recoverable amount of vessels is based on the higher of fair value less costs to sell and value in use. The fair value of vessels is determined by professional brokers while the value in use is based on future discounted cash flows that the CGU is expected to generate over its remaining useful life.

Based on this assessment, the Group concluded that there are no indicators of impairment for the 12 months ended 31 December 2024 (12 months ended 31 December 2023: USD Nil).

  • b. The Group has mortgaged vessels with a total carrying amount of USD 2,332.6 million as at 31 December 2024 (31 December 2023: USD 2,491.8 million) as security over the Group's borrowings.
  • c. There were additions of USD 23.4 million to right-of-use assets vessels for the 12 months ended 31 December 2024 (12 months ended 31 December 2023: USD 11.9 million).

The Group has no Level 1 financial assets or liabilities as at 31 December 2024 and 31 December 2023.

The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market is determined by using valuation techniques. The Group uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each balance sheet date. The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves. These valuation techniques maximise the use of observable market data where it is available and rely as little as possible on entity specific estimates. These financial instruments are included in Level 2, as all significant inputs required to fair value an instrument are observable. Other techniques, such as estimated discounted cash flows, are used to determine fair value for the remaining financial instruments.

Note 10: Financial information CONTINUED

If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the instrument is included in Level 3. The assessment of the fair value of investments in unquoted equity instruments is performed on a quarterly basis based on the latest available data that is reasonably available to the Group.

Level 3 fair values

The Group's investment in unquoted equity instruments measured at FVOCI using Level 3 fair value measurements were valued using market approach based on the Group's best estimate, which is determined by using information including but not limited to the pricing of recent rounds of financing of the investees and information generated from arm's-length market transactions involving identical or comparable assets or liabilities. The estimated fair value of the investments would either increase or decrease based on the latest available data that is reasonably available to the Group at each reporting date.

The following table shows a reconciliation from the opening balances to the closing balances of the Group's investment in unquoted equity instruments measured at FVOCI using Level 3 fair value measurements:

31 December 2024 31 December 2023

Note 16: Non-IFRS measures

Throughout this Interim Financial Information Q4 and Full Year 2024, we provide a number of key performance indicators used by our management and often used by competitors in our industry.

Adjusted EBITDA

"Adjusted EBITDA" is a non-IFRS financial measure and as used herein represents earnings before financial income and expenses, depreciation, impairment, amortization and taxes. Adjusted EBITDA additionally includes adjustments for gain/(loss) on disposal of vessels and/or subsidiaries, share of profit and loss from equity accounted investments, interest income and interest expense, capitalised financing fees written off and other finance expenses. Adjusted EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements, such as lenders, to assess our operating performance as well as compliance with the financial covenants and restrictions contained in our financing agreements.

We believe that Adjusted EBITDA assists management and investors by increasing comparability of our performance from period to period. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects of interest, depreciation, impairment, amortization and taxes. These are items that could be affected by various changing financing methods and capital structure which may significantly affect profit/(loss) between periods. Including Adjusted EBITDA as a measure benefits investors in selecting between investment alternatives.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-IFRS financial measure and should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other measure of our financial performance calculated in accordance with IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect profit/(loss) and these measures may vary among other companies. Adjusted EBITDA as presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures

The following table sets forth a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to profit/(loss) for the financial period, the most comparable IFRS financial measure, for the periods ended 31 December 2024 and 31 December 2023.

Time charter equivalent (or "TCE")

TCE (or TCE income) is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., voyage charters and time charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. We define TCE income as income from time charters and voyage charters (including income from Pools, as described above) for our Hafnia Vessels and TC Vessels less voyage expenses (including fuel oil, port costs, brokers' commissions and other voyage expenses).

Note 16: Non-IFRS measures CONTINUED

We present TCE income per operating day1 , a non-IFRS measure, as we believe it provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with revenues, the most directly comparable IFRS measure, because it assists management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our Hafnia Vessels and TC Vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. Our calculation of TCE income may not be comparable to that reported by other shipping companies.

Reconciliation of Non-IFRS measures

The following table reconciles our revenue (Hafnia Vessels and TC Vessels), the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, to TCE income per operating day.

Revenue (Hafnia Vessels and TC Vessels) 352,817 472,007 1,935,596 1,915,472
Revenue (External Vessels in Disponent-Owner Pools) 180,044 231,432 933,051 756,234
Less: Voyage expenses (Hafnia Vessels and TC Vessels) (119,257) (142,200) (544,317) (548,865)
Less: Voyage expenses (External Vessels in Disponent-Owner Pools) (83,995) (80,482) (332,802) (279,749)
Less: Pool distributions for External Vessels in Disponent-Owner Pools (96,049) (150,950) (600,249) (476,485)
TCE income 233,560 329,807 1,391,279 1,366,607
Operating days 10,293 10,732 42,160 42,276
TCE income per operating day 22,692 30,731 33,000 32,326

Revenue, voyage expenses and pool distributions in relation to External Vessels in Disponent-Owner Pools nets to zero, and therefore the calculation of TCE income is unaffected by these items:

TCE income per operating day 22,692 30,731 33,000 32,326

'TCE income' as used by management is therefore only illustrative of the performance of the Hafnia Vessels and the TC Vessels; not the External Vessels in our Pools.

For the avoidance of doubt, in all instances where we use the term "TCE income" and it is not succeeded by "(voyage charter)", we are referring to TCE income from revenue and voyage expenses related to both voyage charter and time charter.

1 Operating days are defined as the total number of days (including waiting time) in a period during which each vessel is owned, partly owned, operated under a bareboat arrangement (including sale and leaseback) or time chartered-in, net of technical off-hire days. Total operating days stated in the quarterly financial information include operating days for TC Vessels.
