DISCLAIMER AND FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

The preparation of interim financial statements requires Stainless Tankers ASA's (the "Company", "we" or "our") management to make judgments, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates.

This presentation includes forward-looking statements which are based on management's current expectations and projections about future events. All statements other than statements of historical facts included herein, including statements regarding our future financial position, market outlook and future economic projections and assumptions and risks and uncertainties related to our business, strategy, capital expenditures, projected costs and our plans and objectives for future operations, may be deemed to be forward-looking statements. Words such as "believe", "expect", "anticipate", "may", "assume", "plan", "intend", "will", "should","estimate", "risk" and similar expressions or the negatives of these expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

By their nature, forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties because they relate to events and depend on circumstances that may or may not occur in the future. Forwardlooking statements are not guarantees of future performance.

Q&A

Appendix – 3Q25 Financial Statements

Highlights

3Q25 NAV Total Return up 1.3%, now up 54% since inception including all distributions. NAV per share at \$4.99 (vs. \$5.44 in Q2) after paying \$0.61 per share in September. NAV performance

3Q25 results

3Q25 EBITDA was up \$4.4m (vs. \$3.9m in Q2), despite the disposal of Gwen towards the end of August. Revenue slightly higher at \$10.0m (vs. \$9.6m in Q2), driven by higher utilisation due to fewer planned and unplanned off-hire days.

Market rates

Pool TCEs averaged \$16.8k/day in Q3 (\$17.8k/day in Q2), with October and November trending softer at approximately \$15.7k/day. We expect a slow rate recovery in the coming months.

Balanced market

Annual fleet growth of ~4% to 2027 is expected to be manageable compared to 3% demand growth expected.

Dividend distributions1 \$0.275/share ordinary dividend and \$0.335/share special dividend were paid in September. 54% of the initial capital raised has been returned to investors since inception. However, maintaining the current dividend level is unsustainable given the Company now has less vessels and pool earnings, while still healthy, have declined from prior peaks of \$22k/day.

Payout policy maintained

The Company intends to continue full cash flow payouts, subject to capex and forecast earnings. Prudently, the fixed element of the quarterly dividend, based on the current size of the fleet and current earnings has been reset to \$0.135/share (~NOK 1.36/share). However, a top up dividend will be periodically reviewed in addition to the fixed element by the Board.

2026 Outlook As the geopolitical environment remains uncertain with arguably some recent positive developments and high level of deliveries expected in 2026, we remain overall cautiously optimistic for the medium-term.

NAV per share trading at issue price while 54% of initial capital raised already returned to investors

  • Since inception, market value NAV/share has increased to \$4.99 post cumulative dividend of \$2.70/share or \$36.4m
  • NAV Total Return* of c.54% since inception and +1.3% in 3Q25
  • Total dividend/ capital return of \$0.61/share was paid in September

Slow recovery but optimism remains

  • 3Q25 net pool TCE of \$16.8k/day. 1-yr market time charter rates at \$17.5k-\$18k/day however with limited fixtures concluded.
  • Near term demand growth challenged by tariffs uncertainty, albeit some recent positive developments overall. We have lowered our rate forecasts*. Demand growth expected to improve in 2026 with greater clarity on tariffs and the tightening tanker market.
  • US reciprocal tariffs have had an impact on the Chemicals trade demand growth so far this year but, we share the views of our pool operator and remain optimistic that the tightening of the tanker market along with trade route reconfiguration are likely to lead to market improvement in 2026.
  • Scope of sanctions continues to expand. Removal of sanctioned vessels from commercial trading represents high upside optionality for asset values and rates. Please see next page.

Improved demand prospects amidst ongoing supply adjustment

  • Intervals of slower demand growth as that caused by Covid were followed by reversal toward the long-term trend growth rate
  • Demand growth was flat in 2025 due to significant geopolitical uncertainties including changing tariff regimes. Please see the next page. With alleviation of the uncertainty, we expect demand growth to improve to ~3% in 2026
  • The IMF forecasts World GDP growth of 3.1% in 2026, underpinning our positive view

  • Tightening environmental regulations have resulted in ongoing reduction of average fleet speed to reduce green house gas emissions
  • The average speed of the global chemical tanker fleet has reduced by ~6% over the past decade. Ceteris paribus, a 10% reduction in average fleet speed will result in a c.5% supply reduction in effective capacity. This remains an active avenue for ongoing supply side adjustment which should tighten the market

Geopolitics and related disruption to chemicals and tanker fleet

Tariff impact on select cargoes

  • Tariff regimes incentivise trade route reconfiguration which has historically been positive for shipping (tonne-mile) demand
  • We expect the effects of the trade reroute reconfiguration to be apparent on demand growth in 2026, contributing to our expectation of 3% demand growth

  • The scope of sanctions by the US, UK, EU and UN continues to expand, applicable to ~15% of the global tanker fleet as of August. The expanding scope of sanctions forces trading into a smaller pool of commercially traded vessels
  • Average age of the sanctioned tanker fleet being ~20 years, many sanctioned vessels are not well maintained. When sanctions are eventually lifted, accelerated scrapping may be more economically attractive than renewed maintenance to meet regulatory standards for >4% of the tanker fleet - resulting in permanent exclusion of these vessels from commercial service

Higher fleet growth but cautiously optimistic medium term

Fleet (10k-25k dwt stainless steel chemical tankers) development Highlights

In the 10k-25k dwt stainless steel chemical tanker segment

  • 15 vessels were delivered in total YTD (7 in 1H25 plus 8 during the quarter)
  • As of end of October, the orderbook was c.15% of global fleet (versus c.16% previously). Scheduled deliveries:
  • 8 during 2025E (vs. 26 last quarter)
  • 48 during 2026E (vs. 37 last quarter). The high level of expected deliveries in 2026 partly results from delays to 2025 deliveries. Such delays may continue to push deliveries out to 2027 and beyond
  • 31 in 2027E (unchanged vs. last quarter)
  • Two vessels were removed YTD. 4 vessels are expected to be removed during 2025 in total (vs. 7 last quarter) whilst our removals forecast over 2026-27 remains unchanged. Only 1 vessel was ordered in our segment during 3Q. Across all shipping segments, new orders have generally fallen ~50% YoY as of 3Q25.
  • Forecast annual fleet growth of ~4% until 2027 is manageable compared to long term demand growth CAGR of ~4%.
  • Upside optionality on asset values from geopolitics. Please see previous page.

Highlights

  • All vessels operated in the Womar pool during the quarter, achieving higher utilisation of 97.5%, reflecting reduced off-hire days following Q2 drydock and repairs.
  • Net revenue increased to \$10m, with an average net pool TCE rate of \$16,816/day (vs. \$9.6m and \$17,773/day in Q2), despite softer market conditions.
  • EBITDA increased to \$4.4m, (vs. \$3.9m in Q2), driven by the higher utilisation and lower SG&A costs.
  • The sale of Gwen was completed on 26 August, realising a book gain of c.\$1.5m.
  • Net profit of \$1.0m (vs. \$2.8m in Q2), primarily due to the \$3m book gain on sale of Monax realised in Q2 and higher depreciation following an adjustment to the docking amortisation schedule for dry docking for 3rd intermediate surveys.
  • Free cash balance stood at \$7.6m at quarter-end.
  • Following the sale of Gwen, the total fleet market value decreased from \$116m to \$99m. 3Q25 NAV was \$67.4m or \$4.99/share (c. NOK 49.9/share); LTV also decreased from 41.7% to 40.3%.
  • The warrant holder exercised Tranche 1 of the warrants in September, which were cash settled during the same period.
  • The Company paid a Q2 dividend of \$0.275/share (NOK 2.79/share) and a special dividend of \$0.335/share (NOK 3.37/share) in September.
  • A Q3 dividend of \$0.135/share (c. NOK 1.36/share) declared, representing an annualised yield of ~12.5% on current share price of NOK 44.2, payable on or about 2 December, reflecting a total return to date of \$2.83/share (~NOK 29.7/share), equivalent to over ~57% of the IPO proceeds.
