Results Greater Efficiency Power Tanker Division Bulk Division

  • Profit before tax for the first six months of 2009 was USD 7 m and lower than expected
  • A loss of USD 33 m was posted for the second quarter. The result was affected by lower

freight rates and negative mark-to-market non-cash effects of USD 25 m

  • Global oil consumption decreased more than expected which lead to lower demand for

transportation of refined oil products

  • A historically high number of newbuildings came into the market
  • Fuel costs increased significantly during the quarter both in absolute terms and relative to the

crude oil

  • Freight rates were higher than expected driven by increased Chinese demand for iron ore and

coal

  • TORM’s efficiency programme is almost fully implemented
  • In Q2, TORM realised reductions of 10% onaverage on OPEX/day and still aim to realise total

reductions of 15-20% compared to 2008

  • Savings of USD 40-60 m will be achieved from 2010

Guidance for full year

  • Break-even result assuming no further vessel sales

Financial position

  • Cash and unused credit facilities of app. USD 400 m

Vessel values

  • Continued pressure on tanker vessel values ,but the market remains very illiquid and there are

no transactions with “willing seller - willing buyer”

Tanker market was very depressed in the second quarter

Freight rates (MR and LR’s) TORM’s Tanker Division had an EBITDA of USD 19 m in the second quarter of 2009 Relative to the second quarter of 2008, freight rates realized by TORM were 51% lower for the LR2 segment, 32% lower for the LR1 segment and 34% lower for the MR segment, respectively Low demand for tonnage, and at the same time a large number of newbuildings came into the market Main positive factors:

  • Arbitrage on gasoline from Europe to

the Middle East and arbitrage on middle distillates from the Far East to Europe

  • Floating storage (LR1 and LR2)
  • Slow steaming
  • Increased naphtha demand in the Far

East (LR1 and LR2) Main negative factors:

  • Decline in global oil demand
  • Higher bunker costs
  • Declining number of port days
  • Limited backhauls from the US to

Europe (MR)

  • A large number of newbuildings came

into the market

  • Oil demand expected to rebound in 2010
  • Regional product imbalances is expected to increase in short and medium

term

  • New refineries cost advantage expected to pressure older refineries out of

the market

  • Current market conditions increases the possibility of cancellation of new

buildings and consolidation of the market

  • Scrapping of single hulls likely to be accelerated
  • No terminal expansions and this will increase the number of waiting days

when demand rebounds

  • Slow steaming will continue in periods with high bunker prices
  • Vessels used as storage capacity is a trend that is expected to continue as

it gives traders great flexibility in volatile markets Tonnes miles will increase as demand rebounds and new refineries regain cost advantage Current depressed market can end up improving supply picture through accelerated scrapping, cancellations and consolidation

Product Tanker market – balance between supply and demand

Demand and supply development in the Product Tanker market (2009-2011) Based on TORM’s research there appear to be a good balance between increase in demand and supply in 2011 Demand is primarily driven by:

  • New refineries coming on stream

in Middle East and India

  • Phase out
  • Increased oil demand – negative

in 2009 but positive over the period

  • Increasing port days due to

bottlenecks Supply side affected by:

  • 37 LR1 vessels are replacing

phase outs in the crude oil segment

  • 30% of LR2 vessels are expected

(on average) to trade in the crude

  • il segment
  • Expected cancellations of 15%

as a consequence of the financial crisis A number of swing factors can change the picture:

  • Delays in order book
  • Delays in refineries
  • Slow steaming
  • Clean to crude swap

*The number of vessels reflects MR vessels – when necessary a conversion factor for LR2, and LR1 have been used based on their DWT relative to MR

The value of pools materialize in a pressured market

Better optimization and planning

  • With a number of longer term contracts it is

possible to triangulate

  • Example from LR1 pool:
  • Gasoline: Mediterranean-> Arabian Gulf
  • Naptha: Arabian Gulf -> Taiwan
  • Middle destillates: Far East ->

Mediterenean Less exposed to specific markets

  • As MR rates in the Far East were very low a

number of small players suffered as they were fully dependent on this market Stronger negotiation position

  • Agents
  • Customers
  • Suppliers

Vessel owners POOL Customers Suppliers TORM 1 2 3 4 5 6 TORM founded it’s first pool in 1990 and today operates three pools:

  • LR2*: 30 vessels
  • LR1: 30 vessels
  • MR: 35 vessels
  • 1. Owners make vessels available for pool
  • 2. Customers charter vessels for one or more

voyages

  • 3. Customers pay charter hire to pool
  • 4. Voyage related costs
  • 5. Management fees to pool manager
  • 6. Pool income distributed to members,

based on point system and availability to pool TORM’s Pool Business Model… Reduced idle and ballast days More stable earnings Cost advantages

*Operated together with Maersk Tankers

New building and second hand prices have continued to decline in the second quarter of 2009 However, there is currently very limited activity in the market and it is therefore difficult to estimate a realistic price level Furthermore no new buildings have been

  • rdered in the last 3-4 quarters

Rates and second hand prices are relatively well correlated and as the TC market continues to decline slowly due to the very low spot rates the vessel prices are still under pressure

Dry bulk market rebounded in first quarter

Freight rates (historical and latest) TORM’s Bulk Division had an EBITDA of USD 13 m in the second quarter of 2009 – hereof USD 13 m was related to the sale of TORM Baltic and the exercise of a purchase option with subsequent sale

  • f TORM Skagen

TORM Marta and TORM Tina havealso been sold, but were delivered to the buyers in the third quarter and therefore the profit from these sales will be part of third quarter result Freight rates increased by app. 100% in the second quarter, but from a relatively low starting level The rates are still primarily driven by the development in China and especially the Chinese import of iron ore which is estimated to be 30% higher in the first half of 2009 compared to the same period in 2008 TORM has focused to increase coverage during the recent upturn in freight rates and expect the market to be very volatile going forward

Second hand market on dry bulk recovered partly in second quarter

Vessel price development* In the second quarter there was high activity in the sale and purchase market of second hand dry bulk vessels The prices on a 5 year old panamax increased app. 10% On the newbuilding market there was very limited activity and therefore there is uncertainty related to the true price of a newbuilding The strong increase in spot rates was only partly reflected in TC rates which again is strongly correlated with vessel prices

Company facts Finance Strategy Tank market Dry bulk market

Status

  • 24 Jan 2008 TORM acquired 50% equity stake in FR8 from Projector that kept a 50% stake
  • Projector is currently in liquidation
  • TORM’s strategic rationale for the acquisition was to get access to additional oil cargoes and get better

insight to the demand side of the product tanker market

  • This strategy remains and TORM is pursuing a new strategic partner

Key data

  • FR8 is a oil tanker shipping company operating in all key geographic regions
  • Offices in Vera Cruz, London and Singapore
  • 20 vessels under management
  • 6 owned vessels: 4 MRs and 2 LR1s, average age of app. 3.5 years
  • 14 chartered-in: 10 MRs, 2 LR1s and 4 LR2s

Mark-to-market non-cash effects reduced earnings

TORM’s earnings in second quarter of 2009 were negatively impacted by USD 25 m mark-to- market adjustments This was primarily due to writedown of USD 23 m on

  • ptions related to vessel

values The options were a part of the acquisition of OMI Mark-to-market non-cash adjustments

Impairment considerations

Process concerning impairment tests

  • Each quarter TORM receives indications on its fleet value from three

internationally acknowledged shipbrokers

  • TORM performs an asset based valuation based on:
  • the average of the broker estimates
  • a valuation of TC book (in and out)
  • a valuation of any other assets with market values that may differ from book

value

  • Furthermore TORM performs a DCF valuation
  • Based on the asset based valuation and the DCF valuation and the robustness of

these TORM makes an assessment of whether a potential impairment loss should be realised

Ambitious CSR strategy with strong green focus

Company facts Finance Strategy Tank market Dry bulk market

17

Focus on environment has never been bigger and shipping has a key role

  • At the latest G8 meeting the struggle

against the global climate changes was a key topic

  • Participants made a preliminary

agreement that the global temperature increase must not exceed 2 degree Celsius before 2050

  • The fifteenth Conference of the Parties

under the UN Climate Change Convention takes place in Denmark in Dec 7-18

  • Expectations are that a very ambitious

CO2 reduction plan will be agreed

  • Shipping accounts for more than 90%
  • f all transportation of goods
  • Global shipping accounts for 2.7% of

global CO2 emissions

  • Shipping is the most energy-efficient

form of transportation compared to train

  • r truck

..therefore TORM has decided on an ambitious CSR strategy with green focus

  • TORM signed the UN Global Compact in

2009 as first Danish ship owner

  • TORM’s climate strategy:
  • Reduction of CO2 air emissions pr.

vessel by 20% in 2020 compared to 2008

  • Reduction of CO2 air emissions at

the office locations by 25% pr. Employee in 2020 compared to 2008

  • Participating in the Carbon Disclosure

Project (CDP) reporting

  • TORM just received BP’s Shipping Award

Middle East India Rest of the world Growth in world capacity (RH)

New refineries remains a key factor for future demand growth

Refinery expansions Total refinery capacity is expected to increase by 2-3% per year in the coming years A large part of the new refinery capacity is planned in the Middle East and India Refinery capacity continue to be built close to production areas and away from consumption areas This trend is a key driver for continued growth in demand for product tanker capacity as transport distances increase and thereby occupy supply of tonnage

Total estimated newbuilding programme (09-11)

Order book is very high but cancellations are expected

Supply overview* The number of newbuild deliveries is expected to peak in 2009 Especially within the MR segment there is a substantial newbuilding programme Single-hulls build untill early 1990’s are expected to be phased out during the coming years

*Source: Inge Steenslan Shipbrokers and TORM research

30% of the LR2 and LR1 newbuildings are expected to trade in the crude oil segment (app. 1/3) Furthermore the financial crisis is expected to lead to a number of cancellations – TORM estimates 15% Thus the real effect from the order book on the supply situation will be somewhat lower than what appears at first sight

TORM positioned to benefit fully from strong long term prospects in product tanker market

Company facts Finance Strategy Tank market Dry bulk market

  • Green focus becomes increasing more important
  • Oil companies’ requirement getting stricter:
  • Safety
  • Fleet quality
  • Environment

Strong vetting operation and internal CSR policy becomes a competitive advantage Green trend increases barriers to entry Economies of scale

  • Larger fleet under operation gives better planning

possibilities and increase vessel utilization

  • Increased bargaining power
  • Cost advantage of scale

Trend towards increased economies of scale will benefit large players Structural changes drive refined product transport

  • New refineries are placed close to production

(away from consumption)

  • Increased trading with refined products
  • No increases in harbour capacity increases port

days Strong demand growth together with increases in port days improves demand/supply picture The financial crisis will “clean up” market

  • Financing possibilities are reduced
  • A number of large order books are currently

unfunded

  • Low freight rates giving short term earnings

pressure Market players with a sound financial and liquidity position will come out stronger on the other side of the financial crisis TORM is ideally positioned to benefit from the key trends
