OCEANTEAM SHIPPING ASA – Q4 2014 INTERIM REPORT
Issue date 19th February 2015
A STRONG FINISH
Oceanteam Shipping ASA ended 2014 with a strong quarter. Good operational performance resulted in an operating profit of USD 5.6 million and a net result of USD 0.2 million.
The Company completed the transfer of a 50 % ownership stake in a jointly owned Pipe Lay Vessel, North Ocean 102, to J. Ray McDermott Norway. The transaction is part of the Company's long-term strategy to deleverage and to strengthen its balance sheet.
Oceanteam Solutions, the Company's marine asset and design engineering divisions, are focusing more and more on a solution driven offshore service by combining its engineering and equipment capabilities into one unique single service solution for specific clients. This transition is well on track. Its proportion of the Company's earnings has increased and Oceanteam Solutions will be a key contributor to the Company's future growth, in addition to the stable long-term focus on the shipping business.
DOT Shipping, a joint venture with Grupo Diavaz from Mexico, took delivery of two new build FSV's. The vessels are now in transit to Mexico, where they both will begin a seven year firm time charter contract. DOT Shipping currently has one large offshore support vessel under construction, which is already booked against a long term time charter. For this vessel DOT Shipping closed a joint venture with Pacific Radiance Ltd of Singapore.
Oceanteam is an offshore shipping Company and solutions provider. Besides owning, chartering and managing deep-water offshore support vessels and FSV's, the Company has an increased focus on providing complete offshore solutions to its clients.

The shipping segment currently consists of interests in two multipurpose construction support vessels, one pipe lay vessel and one large offshore support vessel under construction. In addition the Company operates four fast support vessels, two of which are working in Venezuela and two are due to start operations in Mexico. All vessels have been fully employed with only CSV Southern Ocean having a lower utilisation due to dry docking at year end. The vessel completed its 5 year maintenance programme in February and is contracted until the end of 2018 (plus options for extension) with Fugro TS Marine Australia.
Oceanteam Solutions consists of KCI and RentOcean.
KCI designs and engineers complete platforms and
infrastructure for the oil & gas and renewable markets, deck layouts, cable & pipelay solutions and HSE procedures.

MARKET AND FUTURE OUTLOOK
The oil price has decreased significantly and fluctuations in oil prices will affect the demand for the Company's services going forward. We remain positive on the long-term fundamentals of the relevant industries.
In the long-term, exploration and production activities are likely to increase and consequently the demand for large construction support vessels and services are likely to grow.
The Company has always focused on strong longterm backlog seeking full utilisation of of its assets, a proven strategy that gives long-term stable cash flow. Geopolitical tension will make certain regions develop faster or slower and therefore the Company has chosen to focus on stable regions and to team up with strong local partners and clients.
In Western Europe many offshore wind parks have been delayed due to lack of funding, supply chain problems, cost overruns and changes in countries' policies. During 2015 and for the years to come, the Company expects demand for offshore renewable related services to increase. The exact timing of existing projects currently in the development stage remains uncertain but overall the market is expected to grow, resulting in an increased demand for support vessels and associated services. The focus of the
industry is on reducing installation and maintenance costs and using flexible solutions, which Oceanteam can provide with its solution driven services.
Larger wind farms allow improved fixed cost allocation but also increase project complexity and demand for engineering services. Oceanteam Solutions focuses on combining the different disciplines and resources into cost effective solutions which creates new opportunities.
Oceanteam spends significant resources on market research and intelligence. It adapts its strategy and risk profiles when the analyses deems this to be prudent.
The oil and gas prices influences oil companies' priorities and choices between new developments, upgrades of existing facilities and commitments to recovery from producing fields. Fluctuations in oil and gas prices also affect the offshore renewable market and available resources. Hence oil and gas prices affect activity in both of Oceanteam's main markets.
Oceanteam Shipping is confident and to date has secured sufficient projects in both the oil and gas market and the offshore renewable market to maintain a high to good level of utilisation of its assets and engineers.
An important milestone in 2014 has been the
establishment of DOT Shipping, a joint venture with Grupo Diavaz in Mexico. In this captive market the Company's goal is to provide the complete vertical supply chain through their cutting edge engineering solutions. Through this joint venture Oceanteam's operations are expected to grow in the coming years.
The shipping segment is based on long-term contracts. The Company has a strong track record of securing such contracts. During the third quarter further extensions were received from Oceaneering for CSV Bourbon Oceanteam 101.
KCI, design engineering services, are built on a 27 year track record of multiple short term contracts of different sizes and durations.
RentOcean maintains a steady level of success in the historically strong offshore renewable market. In 2014 RentOcean secured its first two oil and gas contracts supplying services for Korea and Brazil.
Several major projects started in 2014 and the current backlog for our equipment is USD 14 million, in addition there are USD 47 million in tenders. The Company continues to experience strong interest for its vessels and services from globally leading companies.

FINANCIAL RISK
The Company is exposed to financial risk in different areas. Financial risks include interest rate risk and currency risks, investment and trading risks in general, borrowing and leverage risks and risks in connection with the vessels built under the Spanish tax lease system. The Lay Vessel North Ocean 105 will be under the Spanish tax lease structure until end February 2015.
The Company has revenues and liabilities in foreign currencies and is exposed to currency risks. The revenue is divided equally between USD and EUR. Since the reporting currency is in USD the foreign currency exposure is for liabilities in the EURO and its fluctuations with the USD.
The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates as the bulk of its debt has floating rates. In the loan agreement for the CSV Bourbon Oceanteam 101 and CSV Southern Ocean 50 percent of the Libor interest rates are fixed. This protects the Company from volatile interest rate fluctuations. The USD bond loan and the loan for the North Ocean 102 (for which the Company sold its interest in the fourth quarter of 2014) have a floating quarterly Libor. With the new debt maturity secured in 2012 and the forward interest curves, the Company sees a satisfactory risk level. The objective of the Company is to reduce financial risk as much as possible. Current strategy includes the use of financial instruments but is largely based on natural hedging where income streams and costs are matched for the various projects. This however is continuously being assessed by the management and the Board of Directors.
Oceanteam Shipping's balance sheet is leveraged with USD 154 million in non-current liabilities, including first year's installments. USD 35 million is due in April 2015 according to the terms of the bond loan of USD 92.5 million.
LIQUIDITY RISK
At the quarters end, the working capital and liquidity position of the Company is satisfactory. The Group is working to support its growth in RentOcean, DOT Shipping & KCI by securing external equipment financing and selling underutilised assets. The year was affected by the start-up of significant projects within RentOcean requiring investments and working capital. The parent company, Oceanteam Shipping ASA, depends on liquidity flows from subsidiaries and the joint venture companies owned with its joint venture partners. An amount of NOK 128.5 million have been paid up to Oceanteam Shipping ASA in 2014.
As of 31 Decemcer 2014 the Company still had some legal cases pending but the probability of a positive outcome of the cases is high according to our legal advisors. The Company filed a lawsuit against Sawicon AS and North Sea Shipping for the infringement of the Company's right to the North Ocean 100 series. The court case against Sawicon and North Sea Shipping will continue in 2015 and all costs are recorded as they occur.
The partial repayment of the bond loan, in the amount of USD 35 million, will be executed in April 2015.
Trade receivables for shipping segment are USD 4.5 million per quarter end where USD 3.9 million has been received in Q1 2015. For RentOcean and KCI, of the USD 4.2 million of outstanding trade receivables at the quarters end, USD 1.7 million has been received in Q1 2015.
INVESTMENTS
- RentOcean is in the process of expanding its equipment pool with new turntables, loading towers, reels and associated services.
- KCI, design engineering services, have been working on various contracts for multiple clients in both the oil and gas and offshore renewable markets. In addition significant resources have been allocated to 'The Next Step' restructuring and investment programme which was initiated in October 2013.
TAX LOSSES
The Company has a deferred tax asset on the balance sheet in total of USD 6.0 million. In addition to this the Company has received confirmation from the tax authorities of a deferred tax loss of NOK 1.1 billion in October 2014 for the Norwegian entities which are not on the balance sheet. The deferred tax losses for operations outside Norway are EUR 52 million. The tax losses arise from losses in 2008 and 2009, since then the company has continued to be operational profitable.
EVENTS AFTER THE BALANCE SHEET DATE
- DOT Shipping took delivery of two new build FSV's. The vessels are now underway from the shipyard to Mexico, where they both will begin a seven year contract.
- RentOcean was awarded a contract for a cable laying project in Mexico.
- Oceanteam announces a stronger focus on and transition to providing solution driven services by combining its engineering and equipment capabilities into a single service in accordance with clients' requests.
- Bank approved a growth facility for new Solution and Equipment investments.
GOING CONCERN
In accordance with the Accounting Act § 3-3a Oceanteam Shipping confirms that the financial statements have been prepared under the assumption of going concern. This assumption is based on income forecasts for the years 2015 – 2016 and the Group's long-term strategic forecasts. The annual report for 2013 is available on www.oceanteam.no

NOTE 1 – FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
The condensed set of Financial Statements for Q4 2014 has been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Statements and it has been prepared in accordance with the same accounting principles as the Financial Statements for 2013, unless otherwise stated.
Oceanteam have applied the following standards from Q1 2014:
IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements IAS 27 Separate Financial Statements IFRS 11 Joint Arrangements IFRS 12 Disclosure of Interests in Other Entities and IAS 28 Investment in Associates and Joint Ventures.
Due to the implementation of the standards above, two of the joint venture companies are now equity accounted compared to proportional consolidation previously. A third company, Oceanteam Bourbon 4 AS, has been fully consolidated due to change in shareholders agreement since the Group has gained control over this company. Also due to the change in shareholders agreement, Bourbon Offshore Norway AS has gained control over Oceanteam Bourbon 101 AS and therefore Oceanteam's interest in this company has been reclassified as an associate.
There have been changes in income statement and balance sheet since Q4 2013 report and Annual report 2013. In Q4 2013 report, investments in joint ventures and associates have been equity accounted and Oceanteam Bourbon 4 AS has been 100 percent consolidated.
Since the change of control not being effective in 2013, the balance sheet has been restated and Oceanteam Bourbon 4 AS is equity accounted in the restated balance sheet per 31.12.2013.

OPERATING LEASE
In February 2014, the first 4000T turntable was delivered to the lessee in accordance with the agreement to lease out the equipment. Among other factors, the lease period is for 2 years and the lessee has the option to purchase the equipment at an agreed price. In July 2014, a second 4000T turntable was delivered to the same lessee, but with no purchase option connected to this lease agreement. The Company considers these two turntables as one large project and has made an assessment of the different elements of the contracts, including the commercial aspects of the contracts, and as to whether or not there are a substantial risks or rewards when ownership is transferred to the lessee. Since the lease period is for a limited period of time compared to the economic life of the assets and the Company retains the majority of the risk related to the asset, therefore it has been classified as an operating lease.
FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS
Fair value measurement of vessels
A valuation of the Group's vessels and the participation in LV 105 was performed by the company to determine the fair value of the vessels and the interest in LV 105 as at 31 December 2014. All vessels are equity accounted except the Oceanteam Bourbon 4 AS which is 100 percent consolidated. The revaluation surplus net of applicable deferred income taxes were credited to other comprehensive income and is shown in 'Revaluation reserves' in shareholders equity. The following table analyses the non-financial assets carried at fair value, by valuation method. The different levels have been defined as follows:
- Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1)
- Inputs other than quoted prices included within level 1 that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly (that is, as prices) or indirectly (that is, derived from prices) (Level 2)
- Inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (that is, unobservable inputs) (Level 3).

Valuation processes of the Group
The Group's finance department includes a team that performs the valuations of the vessels and the interest in LV 105, measured at fair value required for financial reporting purposes, including level 3 fair values. This team reports directly to the CFO. Discussions of valuation processes and results are held between the CFO, and the valuation team at least once every quarter, in line with the Group's quarterly reporting dates.
On an annual basis, the Group engages external, independent and qualified valuers to review the Group's fair value measurements models.
The assumptions in the revaluation model are the following:
The valuations of the level 3 vessels and interest in LV 105 have been performed using a combination of a market approach and an income approach. The model for the calculation of the revaluation has the following features:
- Oceanteam Shipping ASA updates the model quarterly
- Two external valuations from independent brokers where the Construction Support Vessel (CSV) and Lay Vessel (LV) is traded between a willing buyer and a willing seller in an active market
- the Brokers' opinions of recent newbuilding quotes of similar tonnage
- the Brokers are evaluating the replacement costs of comparable vessels
- the Brokers are evaluating if any recent sales of comparable vessels in the market
The three assumptions stated above form the Brokers' joint opinion of the fair market value of any asset in the prevailing market as between a willing seller and a willing buyer, charter free. The Brokers' valuations are done quarterly at the end of the quarter.
- The average of two brokers' valuations on a charter free CSV and Lay vessel with prompt delivery.
- The estimated economical lifetime is 25 years from delivery of the vessel.
- The calculated cash flow from the time charter on the revaluated CSV / Lay Vessel is being compared with the estimated brokers' charter.
-
The premium values of the vessels are depreciated linearly over the useful life of the assets.
-
The cash flow from the charter is discounted with a WACC of 7.67 percent. The calculation of the WACC has the following assumptions:
- 10 year state USD
- a 40/60 ratio of equity / debt
- When Oceanteam Shipping has signed a building contract, financing is secured, construction costs and fair value can be measured reliably. Oceanteam Shipping is applying the revaluation model for the CSV / Lay Vessels. The accounting impact when applying the revaluation model is that the CSV / Lay Vessel are measured at fair value in the balance sheet. The lines on the balance sheet "Vessels and equipment" on the asset side under tangible assets and the line "Revaluation reserve" are affected by the revaluation method. The historical costs for the CSV / Lay Vessels are shown in the table above for tangible assets under the column "Construction and Support Vessels" and also the revaluation surplus under the line revaluation reserve in the table.
- Per balance sheet date the CSV 101, CSV 104 and LV 105 were revaluated.
- The option price for the LV North Ocean 105 is included in the cash flow connected to the vessel and the option can be called in Q2 2017. When the relevant option period commences, J. Ray McDermott will have 60 days to call the option. If the option is not exercised within the option period, the call option will go to Oceanteam Shipping. The call option price for vessel LV 105 is USD 95.9 million at the initial transaction date 20th April 2012 depreciated over 20 years with adjustments for the working capital (excluding inventories and spares). The initial value of the JRM Equipment is USD 22.1 million.
According to IAS 39 this is a financial liability for Oceanteam Shipping to be recognized in the financial statements. When there is uncertainty related to such liabilities, the liability must be estimated. The option value for the LV North Ocean 105 is included in the cash flow connected to the vessel, is based on the management's best estimate.

LIQUIDITY RISK, FINANCIAL RISK AND MARKET RISK
The Board of Directors has an overall responsibility for the establishment and oversight of the Group's risk management framework. The Board has established the Management Committee, which a.o. is responsible for developing and monitoring the Group's risk management policies.
Liquidity risk
Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will not be able to meet its financial obligations as they fall due. The Group's approach to managing liquidity is to ensure and plan for that the Company will always have sufficient liquidity to meet its obligations.
The slowdown in the oil and gas market may slow down liquidity turnover in the companies cash flow.
The Group uses project based costing to price its services, which assists in monitoring cash flow requirements. Typically the Group ensures that it has sufficient cash on demand to meet expected operational expenses for a period of 60 days, including the servicing of financial obligations. This policy is seen as sufficient to ensure that the Group is able to manage the potential liquidity impact of circumstances that can reasonably be predicted, such as delays in the execution of projects. Such delays can either be caused by Oceanteam Shipping or the client involved in the contract.
Per Q4 2014 the Group has overdraft facilities of EUR 500.000 in addition to the cash balance of USD 44.5 million. The Group also have control of treasury shares estimated to USD 2.3 million in fair market value.
In Q4 2014 McDermott International Inc. has executed their purchase option for the vessel North Ocean 102. The proceeds from the sale will go towards a USD 35 million amortization on Oceanteam's bond loan debt due in April 2015 and other general corporate purposes.
Currency risk
The Group is exposed to currency fluctuations on sales, purchases, cash deposits and borrowings that are denominated in a currency other than the respective functional currencies of Group entities, primarily the US Dollar (USD), but also Euro (EUR) and Norwegian Kroner (NOK).
The major currency risk for the Group has until mid Q4 2012 been the nominal bond loan of NOK 400 million and the call premium and the timing of the refinancing of the bond loan. In Q4 2012 Oceanteam Shipping ASA has completed a USD 92.5 million issue where the net proceeds were used to refinance the current bond loan. After this refinancing process, the currency risk has decreased significantly. The total loan amount in USD is 91.1 million per 31 December 2014 and accrued call premium is USD 1.0 million. Incurred interest costs are from now on in USD for all loans. Provisions and other items are all in EUR and USD.
Financial risk
The Company is exposed to financial risk in different areas. Financial risks include interest rate and currency fluctuations, investment and trading risks in general, borrowing and leverage and risk in connection with the vessels under construction / Spanish Tax Lease.
The Company has sales revenues and liabilities in foreign currencies and is exposed to currency risks. This risk is particularly relevant for the revenue and liabilities in the USD and EUR.
The Company is exposed to changes in interest rates as the bulk of its debt has floating rates.
The objective of the Company is to reduce the financial risk as much as possible. Current strategy does not include the use of financial instruments, but is largely based on natural hedging. Natural hedging means to have revenue and cost in the same currency for each project. However, this is continuously being monitored by the Board of Directors.
The booked equity ratio is 44 percent.
Interest risk
The Group's interest rate risk arises from long-term borrowings. Borrowings issued at variable rates expose the group to fluctuation in interests, Oceanteam Shipping has quarterly fixed interests. The company also has the opportunity to use longer periods as for instance 6 or 9 months etc. Due to the previous uncertainties in the liquidity situation of the Company, Oceanteam Shipping has used quarterly roll over.
Market risk
The Company has invested 25 % in the Lay Vessel North Ocean 105. The vessel was delivered 20th April 2012 and has commenced a five year charter at delivery. This investment has risk connected to charterer, complex offshore operations and risk connected to owners guarantees in case of the project needs more funding. The Company's equity contribution is USD 5.0 million, but the fair market value from two independent brokers indicate a significant premium value for the vessel.
Credit risk
Credit risk is the risk of financial loss to the Group if a customer or counterparty to a financial instrument fails to meet its contractual obligations, and arises principally from the Group's receivables from customers. The free liquidity is placed in bank acounts with banks of acceptable credit quality. Oceanteam Shipping's clients are primarily large companies with high credit rating. The need for bank guarantee and pre-invoicing are considered on individual basis.
Operational risk
Operational risks include charters, service life and technical risk of vessels, the Group's limited operating history, risk for substantial responsibilities, the Group's ability to retain senior management and key personnel, risk for legal proceedings and contractual disputes, construction risk and employment risk for the vessels and equipment. Oceanteam Shipping ASA is involved in an on-going law suit against naval architect Sawicon for the infringement of Oceanteam's rights to the North Ocean Series under the Norwegian Marketing Act. Legal costs are recorded as they occur.
Contract backlog:
- CSV 101: BP Angola until February 2017.
- CSV Southern Ocean: Fugro TSMarine Australia until 31 December 2018 (+2 x 1 year option).
- LV 105: McDermott International Inc. firm until 30 June 2017 (+1 year option + 1 further additonal year provided the Charteres give advance written notice according to details in charter agreement.
- FSV Mantaraya and FSV Tiburon: Contracts extended until end December 2015.
- Engineering & equipment: the level of secured work / tenders out are satisfactory for the season.
- RentOcean: increased backlog during 2014.
NOTE 6 – TAX IN Q4 2014
Taxes in the income statement are estimated on the basis of the average tax rates for each of the companies that constitute the Group. In companies that apply for the Norwegian Tonnage Tax system the tax rate is set at zero.
Oceanteam Shipping has one Construction Support Vessel which is under the normal tax regime in Norway where the nominal tax percentage is 27 %. However, the Group has major tax losses to be carried forward due to losses on contracting business. Confirmation from the tax authorities of a deferred tax loss of NOK 1.1billion has been received in October 2014. The Group is analyzing how to utilize the nominal deferred losses of NOK 1.1 billion or USD 150 million which is not on the balance sheet. The deferred losses for abroad operations are EUR 52 million.
The Company has a deferred tax asset in the balance sheet of total USD 6.0 million.
The companies outside Norway have EUR 52 million in deferred tax losses from mainly 2008 & 2009. Part of the Oceanteam strategy is of course to get utilise the deferred tax before 2018, through new activities like Oceanteam Solutions, a total solutions for clients concerning engineering, storage and services for cable laying. As it looks now we are on the right track.
NOTE 7 – CONTINGENT ASSETS

NOTE 8 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
In Oceanteam Shipping ASA's legal dispute with Sawicon AS and North Sea Shipping AS concerning rights and use of the North Ocean 100-series design under the Norwegian Marketing Act, Gulating Court of Appeal, by verdict of 7 March 2014, has upheld Oceanteam's appeal. Gulating Court of Appeal has invalidated Bergen City Court's previous verdict in favor of Sawicon AS and North Sea Shipping AS.

NOTE 12 – REVALUATION RESERVE
DECREASE IN CARRYING AMOUNT OF THE VESSEL CSV SOUTHERN OCEAN AS A RESULT OF REVALUATION.
On 1 January 2014, Oceanteam Shipping ASA (OTS) gained control over the joint venture company Oceanteam Bourbon 4 AS (OB 4) which then became a subsidiary. On the date which OTS gained control over OB 4, OTS had recognized an accumulated positive revaluation reserves related to the vessel CSV Southern Ocean owned by OB 4. The revaluation surplus related to the vessel was, at the acquisition date, retained in the revaluation reserve in equity and not transferred to retained earnings.
During 2014 the carrying amount of the vessel was decreased as a result of the revaluation. OTS has elected an accounting policy to not transfer revaluation surplus to retained earnings at disposal, but keep them in revaluation reserves, and has accordingly recognized the decrease in the revaluation through other comprehensive income as there are historical accumulated positive revaluations related to that vessel.
OTS has identified that certain references in the IFRS literature may be interpreted to require that the decrease in value of the vessel, as a result of the revaluation in 2014, shall be recognized in profit and loss. While OTS, at the date of these unaudited interim financial statements, is still researching this uncertainty and its application of the IFRS, it has based its financial reporting on a position, which OTS believes is consistent with the economic realities. If, when the uncertainty is finally resolved, OTS changes its financial reporting position, OTS believes that the most likely result would be to increase the write off in total operating profit with MUSD 9.4, with a corresponding increase of other comprehensive income. This will not have an impact on EBITDA and equity.
