Letter from the CEO

The 3rd quarter marks another step in the right direction for Solstad Offshore. Historically, the 3rd quarter is our most active quarter and this is true also this year. EBITDA came in at Nok 500 mill and is equal to the best quarter we have had since the 4-company merger in 2016/17.

Our markets continue to show positive signs and we are entering the winter season with the highest contract coverage in many years.

The quarter has also seen strategic advancements as we took steps to strengthen our position within the renewable energy sector. The Windstaller Alliance established jointly with the internationally recognized companies Deepocean and Aker Solutions allows us to combine extensive competence and resources to create value for our renewable energy clients. Collaboration will be one of the key elements to drive down the cost in the renewables sector, make renewable energy competitive with other energy sources, and ultimately reduce emissions from energy production and consumption.

The initiative has been well received by our clients and I am looking forward with great expectations to what the Windstaller Alliance can achieve in the years to come.

I am from time to time being asked about our activity within oil & gas compared to our activity in offshore wind and where we are heading.

We are and will continue to support all energy production offshore, covering current, emerging and future energy production. My ambition for the company is that we are a relevant and attractive partner to all developers of offshore energy, ranging from oil and gas to offshore wind and future energy sources such as tidal and wave energy. We work hard every day to ensure that our maritime competence and vessels are up the standards expected by our customers across the offshore energy industry.

That includes a continuous focus on reducing emissions from our operations. Solstad Green Operations is a fuel saving program that has yielded signifi cant positive impact since it was implemented in 2009. Batteries and shore power connection are known technologies we are using in our fl eet today, and we are constantly keeping an eye on what is next. We are participating in several promising pilot projects that look at new fuel types and other technologies.

On 17th November we received the 2021 OSJ Environmental Award as a recognition to what Solstad is doing to reduce emissions. I am very proud of this award, and it shows that all the hard work being done onshore and offshore in the company is being noticed.

In addition to upgrading our fl eet, we continue to sell the oldest part of the fl eet.

24 vessels are sold YTD, including 8 vessels for recycling at Green Yards Norway.

Thank you.

Lars Peder Solstad CEO

Risk

The Company is exposed to market, commercial, operational and financial risks that affect the assets, liabilities, available liquidity and future cash flows. Despite of the difficult market situation within the offshore industry the last years, the Company considers that these risks have decreased slightly as a consequence of the increased demand compared to previous years. There is established a risk mitigation framework based on identifying, assessing and managing the Company risks. The Board monitors the overall risk factors for the Group.

Market and operational risks are changes in demand for and prices of the services provided by the Company, and potential adverse effects of the provision of such services. The market has been under pressure with the impact of COVID-19 virus and affecting all regions where the Group operates. This has negatively impacted the earnings of the Group's fleet. A slower recovery of the market will impact future earnings of the Group's fleet going forward. The Company has implemented a wide range of measures to minimize the risk to people and operations from the COVID-19 pandemic. A large part of the Company staff has been vaccinated and the Company continue to practice social distancing, travel restrictions, testing of marine crew and partly working from home. The company has so far avoided significant COVID-19 disruption related to its operational uptime and will continue to enforce proper measures to minimize the risk level. The Company continually evaluates measures to reduce risk exposure as mentioned above.

The Company is exposed to interest rate and currency risk, primarily through financing and contracts. Currency risk is to a certain extent mitigated by having debt in the same currency as charter agreements.

For further details, reference is made to section Annual Report 2020 Note 1, 2, 4, 28 and the risk section of the Prospectus from the Company published on 19 October 2020.

Normand Maximus update ximus update

As stated in previous communications, Normand Maximus Limited continues its dialogue with its financiers, to find a long-term solution for the financing of Normand Maximus following Saipem's early termination of the time charter. The agreements related to Normand Maximus entitle Maximus Limited as owner of the Vessel to require Normand Maximus Limited to buy the vessel and/ or exercise other rights and remedies under the lease financing if a solution is not found. Absent a solution, there is a risk in the current markets that Normand Maximus Limited as bareboat charterer of the Normand Maximus will not be able to finance such a purchase or other claims. As all obligations of Normand Maximus Limited are guaranteed by Solstad Offshore ASA, this could have a material adverse effect on Solstad Offshore ASA's financial situation. As advised in our 2Q report, the Company has received summons from M. Y. F Maximus Limited as a former shareholder in Maximus Limited, for a declaratory relief that M.Y.F Limited has a recourse claim against the Company. The hearing is scheduled to 2Q 2022. Further details on the fi nancing of Normand Maximus are set out in "Finance" and Annual Report 2020 Note 1, 2, 4 and 28 and the risk section of the Prospectus from the Company published on 19 October 2020. ations Norm his mate 2Q re ils on Norm 020 Note 1, 4 ed on 19 Oc munications, Lim or finan arter. ag to rights

Operational Update

Solstad Group ("the Company") is a world leading owner and operator of offshore service vessels.

As per September 2021, the Company owns and/or operates a core fl eet of 90 vessels. The overall utilization for the operational fl eet in 3Q 2021 was 89% (86% in 2020), the subsea CSV fl eet had a utilization of 90% (83%), AHTS fl eet 86% (83%) and 90% (90%) for the PSV fl eet.

Subsea & Renewable Energy

In 3rd quarter, the CSV segment had 26 vessels in operation for Clients in the Global markets. Around 30% of the CSV revenues came from Renewable energy.

Several new contracts has been signed, at improved terms, and bidding activity remains high in both oil & gas and offshore-wind.

Non-strategic fl eet

Solstad are in the process of selling vessels that are defi ned as non-strategic and not a part of the future Solstad-fl eet.

In general, these are the oldest and smallest vessels in the fl eet. Pr. 30.09.21, 14 of 37 vessels had exited the fl eet, while 10 has been sold after quarter end.

AHTS & PSV

The AHTS & PSV segment had 55 vessels in operation in 3rd quarter, with the majority of the fl eet operating in the strategic key regions the North Sea, Australia and Brazil.

Several contracts has been awarded in all key regions and bidding activity remains at a high level.

* vessels in operation (81 vessels)

Market Outlook

The combination of the current oil & gas price and increasing investment plans within offshore-wind is expected to have a positive impact on the demand for offshore vessels.

Particularly for the CSVs serving both segments, the demand for vessels are increasing and commercial terms are improving.

Within offshore-wind the tendering activity is high and Solstad is involved in a number of tender processes, both on time charters and on extended offerings via the Windstaller Alliance that was established by Solstad, Deepocean and Aker Solutions in October 2021.

The Windstaller Alliance has been positively received by Clients and are already involved in tenders for renewable energy projects with execution in 2022 and onwards.

The subsea contractors continue to build their backlog and there are a number of tenders for "year- around" and seasonal contracts. Solstad has signed several new contracts in this segment during 3Q and so far in 4Q.

For the AHTS and PSV segment there are also an activity increase, but the number of active vessels still have a negative effect on the rate levels. In particularly that goes for the PSV segment. Demand for the large AHTS vessels is increasing with long-term tenders and several project opportunities.

The Company's backlog is approximately MNOK 5,000 whereof MNOK 3,000 is for the next 12 months.

Sustainability

In Solstad we have sustainability as one of our top priorities. By involving all employees, key clients and main suppliers we can jointly work towards a sustainable future.

  • The following 8 vessels have now been sold for recycling: Sea Panther, Sea Tiger, Normand Atlantic, Normand Borg, Normand Neptun, Sea Pollock, Far Strider and Far Sovereign. The vessels will be recycled at Green Yard Kleven and Green Yard Feda.
  • The high operational standard in the company continues by focusing on safety at all stages of its operations. During the quarter, the company has reduced its TRFC frequency and registered 1,29 at the end of the quarter.
  • November 17th the Company received the "Environmental Award 2021" by Offshore Support Journal in London. The award was given for upgrading the Company fl eet with battery-hybrid propulsion and seeing its ninth PSV operating on the Norwegian continental shelf with battery-hybrid propulsion.

** Training started 21.12.2020

*** Baseline for the effi ciency target is an average of each vessel's performance over the past 3 years. The increased performance comes from operational measures (Solstad Green Operations) and/or technical upgrades such as battery and/or shore power systems. The increase total emissions for Q3 is related to increased activity including more vessels in operation.

Social

At the end of 2nd quarter the Total Recordable Case Frequency (TRCF) was 1.72 (too high / goal 1.10). As a consequence of this several initiatives where kicked-off to engage with the vessel management and crew to identify immediate measures that could infl uence on the day to day safety focus onboard the vessels. Since then the TRCF has decreased down to 1.29 due to a falling number of incidents in 3rd quarter (only 2 recordable minor incidents in August). The TRCF is by end of 3rd quarter 1.29.

Governance

No material governance incidents have been registered during the period. A total of 144 audits, port state controls etc. have been completed this quarter, resulting in no major fi ndings.

Environment

As part of the ESG leading indicators the company now track carbon intensity data for its fl eet showing emissions per day per vessel and vessel type in addition to total fl eet emissions.

ty/
arne

The company currently works on plans to establish pilot projects to investigate the use of fuel cell technology and multi-fuel solutions for internal combustion engines that will allow for low or zero emission operations on existing vessels in the medium term and on new builds on the longer term.

The amount of unwanted oil spills to sea is declining over time. This is a positive trend.

The goal this year to stop using single use plastic bottles in the fl eet has been more challenging that was expected for various reasons around the world. There is still a way to go reach our goal.

Notes

Notes to condensed statement of comprehensive income and statement of fi nancial position

(NOK 1,000)

Note 1 - General

Solstad Offshore ASA (SOFF) has its head offi ce in Skudeneshavn, Norway. The main activities of the company are operation and ownership of offshore service and construction vessels. The Group is listed on Oslo Stock Exchange. The quarterly accounts are prepared using the same accounting principles as last year's accounts and in compliance with IAS 34 Interim Financial Reporting.

The interim accounts are prepared on the assumption of a going concern. The going concern assumption is based on the level of cash and cash equivalents at reporting date, terms and conditions of the banking and borrowing facilities, the forecasted cash fl ow prognosis for the Group and the backlog position. Based on the information given on "Normand Maximus" related to the bareboat charter, the Board of Directors needs to point out that there is uncertainty related to the going concern assumption of Solstad Offshore ASA.

Note 2 - Operating income

The Group's revenues mainly derives from offering vessels and maritime personnel to customers world wide. Basically all contracts with customers are contracts with day rate. Contract with day rate is contract where income is eared on a day-by-day basis, based on an agreed day rate with the customer. Revenue from contracts with day rate is recognized accordingly.

The agreed day rate is divided into a service element and a lease element. The service element includes the maritime services provided to navigate the vessel according to the customers requirements, while the lease element is the estimated rental of the vessel (equipment).

Some of the contracts also includes victualling and onshore project management. Victualling is meals and bedding provided to the customers personnel onboard the vessel. The Group also provides ordinary management services, such as technical services, crewing, incurance and commercial management for vessels not owned by the Group. Revenue on services, mentioned above, are recognized over time, as the performance obligation is satisfi ed over time.

Note 5 - Fixed assets (continued)

Impairment testing of vessels

Summary

The Company has performed impairment testing of the fl eet in accordance with IAS 36. Indicators such as slow market recovery and declining price/ book ratio form, according to IAS 36, the need for revaluation of the Company's assets.

Based on value-in-use-calculations impairment charges recognized in 3Q 2021 was NOK 0. Total impairment of fi xed assets recognized year to date 3Q 2021 is MNOK 45.

Impairment testing

Impairment testing (value-in-use-calculation) was performed for all vessels where book value exceeds 65% of broker value. Broker value is set as an average of 3 acknowledged, independent brokers. Each vessel is considered a separate cash generating unit. The value-in-use-calculations are based on budget and the long-term forecast for 2021-2025.

The main assumptions used in the computations are charter rates, utilization, escalation of expenses, operational area, interest rate, weighted average cost of capital (WACC) and performance per Q3 2021 compared to forecast.

Discounting rate

The discounting rate is based on a common WACC for the Company. The cost of equity is derived from the 10-year interest rate for state bonds (risk-free interest rate), the Company's own market risk premium and an unlevered beta. The debt element of the discounting rate is based on the risk-free interest rate, plus the Company's average margin for secured debt, as well as a premium equivalent to the difference between risk-free interest rate and the bank's lending rates. The discounting rate used for Q3 2021 is 9%.

Revenue assumptions

For vessels having fi rm contracts, revenue is based on the current contracts. For vessels without fi rm contracts, and for vessels where the fi rm contract expires during the period, revenue is based on historical data. For the fi rst period it is expected that the day rates for the PSV- and AHTS segment will remain low. From 2026 to 2028 it is assumed a gradual increase of revenue to a level which correspond to the average rates for the past 7-10 years. It is expected that the markets are normalized within 2027.

Infl ation

Escalation of revenue is expected to be marginal for the coming year. Hence, it is used a low (<1%) or no infl ation of revenue in 2021. Operating cost is adjusted for infl ation by 2%. Infl ation of revenue correspond to cost from 2026.

Residual values

Estimated residual values used in the value-in-use-calculations are set using the same principle as for the ordinary depreciations. Initially the value is set to 50% of cost price, expected cost of sale deducted, and adjusted for age and changes in broker valuations. The assumption is that the broker values decline by 2.5% per year, until the vessel is 20 years old.

In connection with the merger with Rem Offshore, Farstad Shipping and Deep Sea Supply, the purchase price alloction analysis identifi ed several long-term freight contracts where the daily rates were higher or lower than the market rate at the time of acquisition. A part of the purchase price was thus allocated to these excess / less values and capitalized. In line with the fulfi llment and revenue recognition of freight contracts, the capitalized excess / less value is derecognized. The adjustment has no cash effect, and thus comes as an addition to booked freight income when calculating EBITDA.
