MANAGEMENT REPORT

In the fourth quarter (1 October – 31 December) of the year, Tallink Grupp AS and its subsidiaries (the Group) carried 1 122 892 passengers, which is 660 thousand passengers more than in the fourth quarter last year. The number of cargo units transported increased by 24% in the same comparison. The Group's unaudited consolidated revenue increased by 110.1% or EUR 87.3 million to a total of EUR 166.6 million. Unaudited EBITDA was EUR 25.1 million (EUR 1.2 million in the fourth quarter 2020) and unaudited net loss was EUR 3.3 million (net loss of EUR 26.9 million in the fourth quarter 2020). Net profit in the second half of the year amounted to EUR 2.2 million (net loss of EUR 50.7 million in the second half of the year 2020).

The Group's operations and operating results were continuously strongly influenced by the COVID-19 situation in the fourth quarter. In the beginning of the quarter, particularly in October and November, the demand for travelling was relatively strong due to moderate restrictions, which allowed the business to start recovering and had positive effect on results. With the rise of new COVID-19 variant, demand was negatively affected, and additional restrictions were put in place by the end of the quarter in Group's home markets in Finland and Sweden. The operational factors impacting results were following:

  • during the quarter 2 shuttle vessels, 3 cargo vessels, 6 cruise ferries and 3 hotels were operating;
  • short-term charter of Silja Europa and Romantika;
  • significant increase in the global fuel prices;
  • cost savings from previously implemented measures.

To enhance travelling and contribute to resolving the COVID-19 crisis, the Group offered the opportunity for passengers to perform COVID-19 antigen testing and get vaccinated on board the Tallinn-Helsinki shuttle ferries since June 2021.

The results of the first half of the year were severely affected by limited operations of vessels and low demand for travelling due to strict travel restrictions imposed in Group's home markets. Despite of extensive travel restrictions and continuous negative effect of COVID-19, lower impact from support measures and government assistance, increasing fuel prices, the Group managed to operate profitably in the second half of the year since the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, reopening of Tallinn-Stockholm and Helsinki-Stockholm routes in the second half of the year contributed to the operating results of the Group. The earnings were supported by partial alleviation of travel restrictions, cost savings from previously implemented measures and short-term chartering of vessels.

Operations during the quarter

Given the uncertainty regarding the duration of the crisis and the course of the post-crisis recovery with progress of vaccinations, the business environment has remained challenging. In the current situation, the focus has remained on costs and cash flow management to ensure the sustainability of the Group's core business.

Cruise ferry Baltic Queen operated on the Tallinn-Stockholm route in the fourth quarter. Cruise ferry Victoria I operated 3 return trips on the Tallinn-Helsinki route replacing the cruise ferry Silja Europa. Cruise ferries Silja Europa and Romantika were chartered out from mid-October to mid-November.

Operations of the Riga-Stockholm route were suspended during the quarter.

Tallink City Hotel, Tallink Spa & Conference Hotel and Tallink Express Hotel were all operating during the fourth quarter. Tallink Hotel Riga has remained closed since October 2020 and was not opened in 2021.

Estonia-Finland routes' shuttle vessels Megastar and Star, cargo vessel Sea Wind, Paldiski-Kapellskär route cargo vessels Regal Star and Sailor, and the four Finland-Sweden routes' cruise ferries continued their operations throughout the quarter.

Sales and segments

In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Group's total revenue increased by EUR 87.3 million to EUR 166.6 million. Total revenue in the fourth quarter of 2020 and 2019 was EUR 79.3 million and EUR 226.4 million, respectively.

Estonia-Finland routes' revenue increased by EUR 18.1 million, or 48.3%, to EUR 55.5 million. The segment result increased by EUR 7.4 million to EUR 6.6 million.

The route's revenue increased by EUR 42.4 million to EUR 64.2 million and the segment result improved by EUR 20.2 million to EUR 2.9 million.

Results of the 12 months of 2021

The financial result of the 2021 financial year was impacted by suspension of operations of vessels and hotels due to the COVID-19 situation and travel restrictions as well as increase in global fuel prices. The results of the first half of the year were strongly impacted by low season and low demand for travelling due to extensive travel restrictions and communication advising against travelling. Despite the continuous impact of the pandemic, the reopening of Tallinn-Stockholm and Helsinki-Stockholm routes in the second half of the year and income from short-term charter agreements contributed to the operating results, and the Group managed to earn net profit in the second half of the year.

Investments

Due to the changed economic environment and suspension of vessel operations, ship-related investments were kept to minimum and only critical maintenance and repair works were performed.

Dividends

Due to a deteriorated operating environment and considering the Group's long-term interests, the shareholders' annual general meeting decided not to distribute dividends for 2020.

Economic Environment

The Group considers Finland, Sweden, Estonia and Latvia its home markets with the most exposure to the economic and travel restriction developments in Finland. The Group has also high exposure to the economic and travel restriction developments in Estonia and Sweden. In the fourth quarter of 2021, the Group's economic environment was still dominated by the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and restrictions related to international travel, although to a lesser extent compared to previous periods.

Despite some decline during the quarter, the confidence of Finnish, Swedish and Estonian consumers remained relatively high. The overall demand in passenger traffic remained negatively affected by the COVID-19 related considerations, particularly in the end of the quarter on Finnish and Swedish markets.

In the fourth quarter, the cargo business remained solid supported by the continuously robust business confidence on all home markets. The market conditions regarding the price competition remained challenging.

Measured in euros and weighted with the Group's consumption volumes, the global fuel prices increased, on average, by 138% in the fourth quarter of 2021 compared to last year. Increase in the fuel prices was the main cause of the Group's overall fuel cost increase by 132% compared to the same period last year.

High levels of vaccination in Finland and Sweden contributed to consumer confidence to travel, which was evident in the first months of the fourth quarter. The developments with the new COVID-19 variant affected negatively the demand in December. By the end of the quarter, infection rates grew rapidly in all home markets and additional restrictions were put in place in Finland and Sweden, effectively resulting in lower demand for travelling. The vaccination pace in Latvia and particularly in Estonia unfortunately lagged and the lower than average level of vaccination rate contributed to the countries rapid growth in infections and hospitalisations per capita compared to other home markets.

For the foreseeable future, the key risk has to do with global and regional developments of the COVID-19 situation, progress of national vaccination efforts and related restrictions on travel and other economic activities, the economic damage it may cause and its impact on local and international trade.

Events in Q4

Short-term chartering of cruise ferries Silja Europa and Romantika

Cruise ferries Silja Europa and Romantika were chartered out from mid-October to mid-November to provide accommodation for the COP26 event in Glasgow, Scotland.

Opening of Burger King restaurants

In December 2021, three new Burger King restaurants were opened in Lithuania. By the end of the year, the Group operated 14 Burger King restaurants in the Baltics.

Events after the reporting period and outlook

Opening of Burger King restaurants

In January 2022, one new Burger King restaurant was opened in Latvia. The Group continues preparations for opening additional Burger King restaurants in 2022.

Easing of travel restrictions in Group's home markets

Starting from February 2022, travel restrictions were lifted in Group's home markets in Finland and Sweden, which contributed to the increase in number of bookings.

Compromise for termination of dispute with AS Tallinna Sadam

On 11 February 2022, AS Tallink Grupp and AS Tallinna Sadam concluded a settlement upon approval of which by the court, the court dispute between the parties concerning the fees of port services provided to passenger vessels at Old City Harbour is terminated, AS Tallink Grupp waives all the claims filed in the matter and AS Tallinna Sadam will amend the port fees applied to passenger vessels visiting the Old City Harbour.

Completion of the new LNG-based shuttle vessel MyStar

The new LNG-based shuttle vessel built in Rauma Shipyard is expected to be delivered during spring 2022. MyStar is estimated to start operating on the Tallinn-Helsinki route from June 2022.

Earnings

The Group's earnings are not generated evenly throughout the year. The summer period is the high season in the Group's operations. In management's opinion and based on prior experience most of the Group's earnings are generated during the summer (June-August). However, this year, dependent on situation with the vaccinations and cross-border travelling, the period extended to autumn.

Due to the ongoing COVID-19 situation the earnings outlook is uncertain and continues to be strongly affected by external factors such as the progress of vaccination and situation with new COVID-19 variants, states' decisions regarding the timing of the lifting or imposing of travel restrictions and allowing passenger traffic, passengers' willingness to travel as well as the duration of the recovery period. Management expects the passenger traffic between Estonia and Finland to recover more rapidly from the second quarter of 2022, when greater immunity is expected to be reached for most of the population on Group's home markets and hospitalisation rates are decreasing.

Research and development projects

The Group does not have any substantial ongoing research and development projects. The Group is continuously seeking opportunities for expanding its operations in order to improve its results.

The Group is continuously looking for innovative ways to upgrade the ships and passenger area technology to improve its overall performance through modern solutions. The most recent technical projects are focusing on the solutions for reduction of the ships CO2 footprint.
