| 5-year weighted average TCE earnings \$/day | The Group believes that average revenue per onhire day provides useful information about the Group's earnings and has included the APM as the measure is used in the management reporting on a monthly basis to evaluate the Group's periodic performance and periodic performance for each of the two segments; CABU and CLEANBU vessels. |
Defined as net revenue excluding adjustments divided by number of onhire days. Net revenue excluding adjustments is defined as total net revenue from operation of vessels adjusted for offhire compensation and other revenue not related to voyage performance. Revenue basis for average TCE earnings is based on load-to-discharge for 2022 going forward and discharge-to-discharge for 2021. The difference/adjustment relates to days in ballast from discharge to loading on next |
| 5-year weighted average CABU TCE earnings \$/day | The 5-year average provides useful information about the performance over a longer time period. |
voyage. Average TCE earnings per onhire day has been changed with effect from 1 January 2022. The effect on 2021 is immaterial(approx 70 \$/d for both segments) and the Company has concluded not to adjust comparative figures. |
| 5-year weighted average CLEANBU TCE earnings \$/day | The 5-year average is calculated as the sum of net revenue excluding adjustments for 20 consecutive quarters divided by the onhire days for the same period. |
