Co Comments

  • WWL group operated a core fleet of 126 vessels (864K CEU)

representing about 20% of the global fleet in the quarter

  • WWL group continues to proactively use the short term

charter market to scale up and down capacity, and had 6 vessels on short term time charters to handle the strong volumes in the fourth quarter

  • In the fourth quarter, space charter activity increased to

handle the seasonally strong export volumes from Europe

  • Currently, the group has flexibility to redeliver 10 vessels in

2018 and 22 vessels in the period from 2019 to 2023

  • Four Post-Panamax vessels are under construction with

combined capacity of 32K CEU. Two of these vessels are expected to enter service in 2018 and two are scheduled for delivery in 2019 (remaining instalments of USD 170 million)

Co Comments Net freight / CBM development1)

Indexed to 100 per Q2 2014

  • Net freight / CBM decreased with 3.7% points in

the fourth quarter compared with the previous quarter due to less favorable trade & cargo mix

  • The volume growth in the forth quarter was

strongest for Europe-Asia and the Atlantic trade. This was primarily driven by seasonally strong auto volumes which negatively impacted both the trade and cargo mix.

  • There was no material rate changes in the

fourth quarter

  • The

net freight index will be negatively impacted by rate reductions from contract renewals during 2017 that will take effect from early 2018

Note: Unprorated volumes excluding US flag operations 1) Net freight = Revenues adjusted for surcharge elements such as BAF, SRC, THC etc

Co Comments

  • Ocean income was USD 832 million, up 7% compared with

previous quarter due to strong volume growth

  • EBITDA adjusted for extraordinary items ended at USD 160

million, a decline of 6% compared to previous quarter

  • The reduction in EBITDA was driven by several factors
  • Less favorable cargo and trade mix
  • Negative USD 10 million effect from higher bunker prices (of

which two thirds are related to lag in BAF compensation)

  • Increased space charter expenses of USD 5 million to handle

strong volume out of Europe

  • Project cargo shipments in the Atlantic remained strong, but

not at the same level as last quarter

  • Combined, these factors more than offset the positive

volume development and increased synergy realisation
