Total income for the Wilh. Wilhelmsen Holding ASA group (referred to as Wilhelmsen or group) was USD 261 million in the first quarter of 2023, up 8% from the corresponding period last year and up 6% from the previous quarter. The increase was due to higher operating revenue in Maritime Services. Income in New Energy was down, mainly due to non-recurring gains in previous quarters.
EBITDA was USD 39 million. This was down 11% from one year earlier which included a step-up gain. Adjusting for the non-recurring gain, EBITDA was up year-over-year supported by an increase in operating revenue. Compared with the previous quarter, EBITDA was up 17%.
Share of profit from joint ventures and associates was USD 59 million. The contribution from Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA remained strong, but below previous quarters.
Income from financial items was a net expense of USD 17 million. This included a USD 35 million negative change in fair value of financial assets, which was partly offset by dividend income and other financial income.
Net profit to equity holders of the company was USD 65 million for the quarter, equal to USD 1.46 earnings per share (EPS).
Other comprehensive income was negative with USD 27 million, mainly from currency translation differences related to non-USD entities. Total comprehensive income, including net profit and other comprehensive income, attributable to equity holders of the company was USD 39 million.
Total assets were up 2% in the first quarter mainly due to higher value of investment in joint ventures and associates. Shareholders' equity was also up 2% for the quarter, to USD 2 257 million. As of 31 March, the group equity ratio was 65%.

*Two additional metrics are measured annually and will be reported in the fourth quarter - the engagement survey result; and the fair, equal and inclusiveness perception score.
The group's internal index measures ESG performance in four strategic focus areas. 17 KPIs are weighted within these areas based on the group's strategic ambitions (excluding financial targets which are reported separately). The overall target for the ESG index at year end is a result greater than 0.9 which means the entity/segment/group ESG activities are on or better than targeted.
The overall group ESG index result was 0.66 (orange) for the first quarter. This was mainly due to the S-lost time injury frequency rate for seafarers being marginally above target for the quarter, but still significantly below 12 months rolling target, and lower-than-planned results in G-Compliance and value chain.
Our ambition is to shape the maritime industry's transition towards net zero emissions and capitalize on green growth.
In the first quarter, entities started the work to develop an initial scope 3 emissions inventory with targeted completion by end of 2023.
Scope 1 emissions were 3.40% (62 tCO2e) lower in the quarter compared with 2022 base year. Renewable energy accounted for 53% of the electricity consumption, which is on target.
Our ambition is to have a safe and engaging workplace with no harm to people, with a culture where each employee is valued for their contribution.
In the first quarter, the lost time injury frequency (LTIF) result for seafarers was (negatively) above target. There were four LTI cases related to seafarers and three LTI cases related to onshore employees in the period. Entities have established management systems for managing health and safety risks specific to their operations, including investigations with preventative and corrective actions.
Females represented 35% of the onshore workforce and 27% of top three management positions, which is on target. The turnover rate was on target, as was the average training hours per employee.
Our ambition is to be a responsible, trusted, and compliant value chain partner.
In the first quarter, there were lower-than-planned results in internal and supplier assessments and ESG audits, however, the ESG audit plans are still expected to be achieved by end of 2023.
Entities implemented the new Wilhelmsen Supplier Code of Conduct in March. The 2023 target is for 100% of new suppliers to agree to the requirements. In the first quarter, the result was 12% of new suppliers, which is a positive starting result.
The percentage completion rate for mandatory training was under target in the quarter, and actions will be taken to secure 100% completion.
This includes Ships Service, Port Services, Ship Management, and other activities reported under the Maritime Services segment.

Wilhelmsen Port Services provides full agency, husbandry, and protective agency services to the merchant fleet.
Total income for Port Services was USD 37 million. This was up 12% from the corresponding period last year and up 11% from the previous quarter. The increase was mainly due to the acquisition of Vopak Agencies, completed on 29 December 2022.

Total income for the New Energy segment was USD 75 million in the first quarter. This was down from the corresponding period last year which included a step-up gain related to full consolidation of Vikan Næringspark Invest, and down from the previous quarter which included a vessel sales gain. Income measured in USD also remained sensitive to quarterly fluctuations of USD versus NOK and other European currencies. Adjusting for both the non-recurring items and currency effects, income was up from one year earlier but down from the previous quarter.
EBITDA was USD 12 million, down 61% from the corresponding period last year and down 19% from the previous quarter. Adjusting for previous year step-up gain and sales gain, EBITDA was down 13% year-over-year but up 28% quarter-on-quarter.

Total income for NorSea was USD 69 million in the first quarter. This was down from the corresponding period last year and the previous quarter, when income was lifted by a step-up gain and a sales gain respectively. Adjusting for these non-recurring items, income was up both year-overyear and from the previous quarter. The Danish operation continued to be the main driver behind the income growth, with a strong year-over-year increase in operating revenue partly offset by a weaker local currency versus USD.
Share of profit from joint ventures and associates in NorSea was USD 2 million.

Wilhelmsen is an industrial holding company within the maritime industry. The group's activities are carried out through fully and partly owned entities, most of which are among the market leaders within their segments. Our ambition is to develop companies within maritime services, shipping, logistics, renewables, and related infrastructure through active ownership.
Maritime Services delivers value creating solutions to the global merchant fleet, focusing on Ships Service, Port Services, and Ship Management.
The Maritime Services operation is presently supported by a generally positive global shipping market. At the same time, inflationary pressure, raw material shortages, and supply chain issues are putting pressure on both the operation and on operating margins. We expect these factors to remain in the short term.
Looking further ahead, we believe that the Maritime Services market will continue to grow, supported by a growing world economy. With global networks and strong brands built over many years, and with a long history of innovation and market adaption, Wilhelmsen is in a good position to service this market.
The New Energy segment focuses on building an ecosystem supporting energy transition. With segment companies representing energy infrastructure, offshore wind, and technology & decarbonisation, Wilhelmsen is driving value-creation by bringing together their unique competencies.
High energy prices and supply constraints following the Russian invasion of Ukraine have increased focus on securing Europe's need for energy. This supports a continued high activity level at the offshore fields supported by NorSea and other Wilhelmsen operations. We believe this situation to remain in the short term. The loss of a large offshore wind service contract in the first quarter will have a negative impact on total income.
A strong focus on climate measures in Europe and globally will support, inter alia, a gradual shift from offshore oil and gas to offshore wind, and decarbonization of the global fleet. With a broad range of operations, infrastructure, and new initiatives across offshore and other maritime activities, Wilhelmsen is well positioned to participate in these energy and technology shifts.
Wilhelmsen holds large strategic shareholdings in Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA and, through its 77% shareholding in Treasure ASA in Hyundai Glovis. Through our shareholdings in these companies, we will continue to provide and develop world leading logistics services to the global automotive and ro-ro industries.
A favorable supply-demand balance in global ro-ro shipping has recently lifted the earnings and dividend capacity of our strategic holdings. We expect this situation to remain over the mid-term.
Long term, Wallenius Wilhelmsen ASA and Hyundai Glovis have the size, global reach, human and physical assets, and customer base to succeed in a continuously changing world.
Wilhelmsen retains a strong balance sheet and a balanced portfolio of leading maritime operations and investments.
While uncertainty persists, specifically regarding inflationary pressure, supply chain issues, and geopolitical tension, the group retains its capacity to support and grow the portfolio, and to deliver consistent yearly dividends.

The fair value of financial instruments traded in an active market is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (over-thecounter contracts) are based on third party quotes. These quotes use the maximum number of observable market rates for price discovery. Specific valuation techniques used by financial counterparties (banks) to value financial derivatives include:
Quoted market prices or dealer quotes for similar derivatives - The fair value of interest rate swaps is calculated as the net present value of the estimated future cash flows based on observable yield curves
The fair value of interest rate swap option (swaption) contracts is determined using observable volatility, yield curve and time-to-maturity parameters at the balance sheet date, resulting in a swaption premium. Options are typically valued by applying the Black-Scholes model. - The fair value of forward foreign exchange contracts is determined using forward exchange rates at the balance sheet date, with the resulting value discounted back to net present value
The fair value of foreign exchange option contracts is determined using observable forward exchange rates, volatility, yield curves and time-tomaturity parameters at the balance sheet date, resulting in an option premium. Options are typically valued by applying the Black-Scholes model.
The carrying value less impairment provision of receivables and payables are assumed to approximate their fair values. The fair value of financial liabilities for disclosure purposes is estimated by discounting the future contractual cash flows at the current market interest rate that is available to the group for similar financial derivatives.
The fair values, except for bond debt, are based on cash flows discounted using a rate based on market rates including margins and are within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. The fair values of the bond debt are based on quoted prices and are also classified within level 2 of the fair value hierarchy due to limited trading in an active market.
The fair value of financial instruments traded in active markets is based on quoted market prices at the balance sheet date. A market is regarded as active if quoted prices are readily and regularly available from an exchange, dealer, broker, industry group, pricing service, or regulatory agency, and those prices represent actual and regularly occurring market transactions on an arm's length basis.
The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the group is the current mid price. These instruments are included in level 1. Instruments included in level 1 at the end of March 2023 are liquid investment grade bonds (analogous for 2022).
The fair value of financial instruments that are not traded in an active market (over-the-counter contracts) are based on third party quotes (Mark-to-Market). These quotes use the maximum number of observable market rates for price discovery. The different techniques typically applied by financial counterparties (banks) were described above. These instruments - FX and IR derivatives - are included in level 2.
If one or more of the significant inputs is not based on observable market data, the derivatives is in level 3. Primarily illiquid investment funds and structured notes are included in level 3.
WWH delivers services to the Wallenius Wilhelmsen group. These include primarily in-house services such as canteen, post, switchboard and rent of office facilities.
Generally, Shared Services are priced using a cost plus 5% margin calculation, in accordance with the principles set out in the OECD Transfer Pricing Guidelines and are delivered according to agreements that are renewed annually.
In addition Maritime Services have several transactions with associates. The contracts governing such transactions are based on commercial market terms.
The size and global activities of the group dictate that companies in the group will be involved from time to time in disputes and legal actions. The group is not aware of any financial risk associated with disputes and legal actions which are not largely covered through insurance arrangements. Nevertheless, any such disputes/actions which might exist
No material events occured between the balance sheet date and the date when the accounts were presented providing new information about the conditions prevailing on the balance sheet date.

This section describes non-GAAP financial alternative performance measures (APM) that may be used in the quarterly and annual reports and related presentations.
The following measures are not defined nor specified in the applicable financial reporting framework of IFRS. They may be considered as non-GAAP financial measures that may include or exclude amounts that are calculated and presented according to the IFRS. These APMs are intended to enhance comparability of the results, balance sheet and cash flows from period to period and it is the Company's experience that these are frequently used by investors, analysts and other parties. Internally, these APMs are used by the management to measure performance on a regular basis. The APMs should not be considered as a substitute for measures of performance in accordance with IFRS.

The Company does not report EBITDA adjusted on a regular basis, but may use it on a case by case basis to better explain operational performance.
EBITDA margin is defined as EBITDA as a per cent of of Total income.
EBITDA margin adjusted is defined as EBITDA adjusted as a per cent of Total income, with Total income also adjusted for the same income elements as those which have been adjusted for in EBITDA adjusted.
EBIT is defined as Total income (Operating revenue and gain/(loss) on sale of assets) less Operating expenses, Other gain/loss and depreciation and amortization. EBIT is used as a measure of operational profitability excluding the effects of how the operations were financed, taxed and excluding foreign exchange gains & losses.
EBIT adjusted, EBIT margin and EBIT margin adjusted will, if used, be prepared in the same manner as described under EBITDA.
