Unless legally required, Himalaya Shipping undertakes no obligation to update publicly any forward-looking statements after the date of this press release whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. Non-GAAP Financial Measures This presentation contains certain selected financial measures on a basis other than U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), including EBITDA, average daily TCE earnings, and

illustrative free cash flow. EBITDA represents our net income/(loss) plus depreciation of vessels and equipment; total financial expenses, net; and income tax expense. EBITDA is presented here because the Company believes this measure increases comparability of total business performance from period to period and against the performance of other companies. Average daily TCE earnings, as presented here, represents time charter revenues and voyage charter revenues adding back address commissions and divided by operational days. For a reconciliation of EBITDA and average daily TCE earnings, gross, to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with US GAAP, please see the section of our preliminary results for the quarter ended December 31, 2023, Appendix entitled "Unaudited Non-GAAP Measures And Reconciliations". For a discussion of illustrative free cash flow see slide 15 including the footnotes thereto. We are unable to prepare a reconciliation of illustrative free cash flow without unreasonable efforts.
