| Pool and Spot Market | Time Charters Out of the Pool | Bareboat Charter Out of the Pool | |||||||||||||
| Average Daily TCE Revenue | Expected Revenue Days(1) | % of Days | Average Daily TCE Revenue | Expected Revenue Days(1) | Average Daily Revenue | Expected Revenue Days(1) | % of Days | ||||||||

(1) Expected Revenue Days are the total number of calendar days in the quarter for each vessel, less the total number of estimated off-hire days during the period associated with repairs or drydockings. Consequently, Expected Revenue Days represent the total number of days the vessel is expected to be available to earn revenue. Idle days, which are days when a vessel is available to earn revenue, yet is not employed, are included in revenue days. The Company uses revenue days to show changes in net vessel revenues between periods.

Explanation of Variances on the Fourth Quarter of 2025 Financial Results Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2024
For the three months ended December 31, 2025, the Company recorded net income of $128.1 million compared to net income of $68.6 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. The following were the significant changes between the two periods:
-
TCE revenue, a Non-IFRS measure, is vessel revenues less voyage expenses (including bunkers and port charges). TCE revenue is included herein because it is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance irrespective of changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot voyages, time charters, and pool charters), and it provides useful information to investors and management. The following table sets forth TCE revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2025, and 2024:
| For the three months ended December 31, | |||||||||
| In thousands of U.S. dollars | 2025 | 2024 | |||||||
| Vessel revenue | $ | 252,652 | $ | 203,969 | |||||
| Voyage expenses | (11,228 | ) | (11,824 | ) | |||||
| TCE revenue | $ | 241,424 | $ | 192,145 | |||||
-
TCE revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased by $49.3 million to $241.4 million, from $192.1 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 despite the average number of vessels decreasing to 96.5 during the three months ended December 31, 2025 from 100.9 during the three months ended December 31, 2024. Overall, the average daily TCE revenue increased to $28,066 per vessel during the three months ended December 31, 2025, from $21,978 per vessel during the three months ended December 31, 2024.
TCE revenue for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased as compared to the same period in the previous year. Both periods were characterized by steady underlying demand for refined petroleum products. During the three months ended December 31, 2025, the product tanker market strengthened compared to the prior-year period, supported by increased seaborne exports and tighter vessel supply. On the demand side, geopolitical disruptions, sanctions enforcement, and refinery outages lengthened trade routes and created regional imbalances for refined products. On the supply side, a strong crude tanker market incentivized larger product tankers to trade crude oil, reducing the number of vessels available for clean-product transportation. Together, these factors contributed to higher average daily TCE rates compared to the three months ended December 31, 2024.
- Vessel operating costs for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $6.6 million to $74.2 million, from $80.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 due to a decrease in the average number of vessels to 96.5 during the three months ended December 31, 2025 from 100.9 during the three months ended December 31, 2024. Average daily vessel operating costs decreased to $8,358 per vessel for the three months ended December 31, 2025 from $8,708 per vessel for the three months ended December 31, 2024. This improvement was driven by reductions in crewing costs, and spares and stores expense.
- Depreciation expense for the three months ended December 31, 2025 decreased by $1.2 million to $44.0 million, from $45.2 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. This decrease resulted from ten vessels either being sold or classified as held for sale since the fourth quarter of 2024 partially offset by increased depreciation stemming from the completed drydocks during 2024 and 2025.
- General and administrative expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased by $11.8 million to $35.7 million, from $23.9 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024 primarily due to an increase in compensation related costs.
- Financial expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2025 increased by $0.9 million to $19.2 million, from $18.3 million for the three months ended December 31, 2024. This increase was due to $2.9 million of write-offs of deferred financing fees and debt extinguishment costs (compared to $0.5 million during the prior year period) resulting primarily from the prepayment of $154.6 million of principal amortization under certain credit facilities, representing all of the scheduled amortization payments from January 1, 2026 through December 31, 2027, as well as the repayment of debt associated with the sale of vessels. Excluding this write-off, there was an overall reduction in interest expense on debt and sale leaseback arrangements due to the Company's deleveraging efforts. Average indebtedness was $795.7 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025 as compared to $882.8 million during the three months ended December 31, 2024. Additionally, amortization of deferred financing fees was $1.5 million during both the three months ended December 31, 2025 and the three months ended December 31, 2024.
- Dividend income and fair value gain (loss) on financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, net of $5.7 million includes $0.2 million of dividends received from the Company's investment in DHT and a fair value gain of $5.5 million during the three months ended December 31, 2025. During the three months ended December 31, 2024, dividend income and fair value gain (loss) on financial assets measured at fair value through profit or loss, net was a loss of $12.1 million, consisting of $1.8 million of dividends and a fair value loss of $13.9 million.

| (1) | See Non-IFRS Measures section below. |
| (2) | Freight rates are commonly measured in the shipping industry in terms of time charter equivalent per day (or TCE per day), which is calculated by subtracting voyage expenses, including bunkers and port charges, from vessel revenue and dividing the net amount (time charter equivalent revenues) by the number of revenue days in the period. Revenue days are the number of days vessels are part of the fleet less the number of days vessels are off-hire for drydock and repairs. For bareboat chartered-out vessels, the charterers are responsible for the vessel operating costs. |
| (3) | Vessel operating costs per day represent vessel operating costs divided by the number of operating days during the period. Operating days are the total number of available days in a period with respect to vessels that are owned, operating under a lease financing arrangement, or bareboat chartered-in, before deducting available days due to off-hire days and days in drydock. Operating days is a measurement that is only applicable to vessels that are owned, operating under a lease financing arrangement, or bareboat chartered-in, not time chartered-in vessels. |

Non-IFRS Measures
Reconciliation of IFRS Financial Information to Non-IFRS Financial Information
This press release describes time charter equivalent revenue, or TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss, and adjusted EBITDA, which are not measures prepared in accordance with IFRS ("Non-IFRS" measures). The Non-IFRS measures are presented in this press release as we believe that they provide investors and other users of our financial statements, such as our lenders, with a means of evaluating and understanding how the Company's management evaluates the Company's operating performance. These Non-IFRS measures should not be considered in isolation from, as substitutes for, or superior to financial measures prepared in accordance with IFRS.
The Company believes that the presentation of TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA are useful to investors or other users of our financial statements, such as our lenders, because they facilitate the comparability and the evaluation of companies in the Company’s industry. In addition, the Company believes that TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA are useful in evaluating its operating performance compared to that of other companies in the Company’s industry. The Company’s definitions of TCE revenue, adjusted net income or loss with adjusted earnings or loss per share, basic and diluted, and adjusted EBITDA may not be the same as reported by other companies in the shipping industry or other industries.
TCE revenue, on a historical basis, is reconciled above in the section entitled "Explanation of Variances on the Fourth Quarter of 2025 Financial Results Compared to the Fourth Quarter of 2024". The Company has not provided a reconciliation of forward-looking TCE revenue because the most directly comparable IFRS measure on a forward-looking basis is not available to the Company without unreasonable effort.

Forward-Looking Statements
Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward‐looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward‐looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward‐looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts. The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The words "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "estimate," "intend," "plan," "target," "project," "likely," "may," "will," "would," "could" and similar expressions identify forward‐looking statements.
The forward‐looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company’s records and other data available from third parties. Although management believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond the Company’s control, there can be no assurance that the Company will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. The Company undertakes no obligation, and specifically declines any obligation, except as required by law, to publicly update or revise any forward‐looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in the Company’s view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward‐looking statements include unforeseen liabilities, future capital expenditures, revenues, expenses, earnings, synergies, economic performance, indebtedness, financial condition, losses, future prospects, expansion and growth of the Company’s operations, risks relating to the integration of assets or operations of entities that it has or may in the future acquire and the possibility that the anticipated synergies and other benefits of such acquisitions may not be realized within expected timeframes or at all, the failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with the Company, the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for tanker vessel capacity, changes in the Company’s operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for the Company’s vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, charter counterparty performance, ability to obtain financing and comply with covenants in such financing arrangements, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, including without limitation the potential expenses incurred under the recently implemented port fee regimes in the United States and China that may be applicable to certain of our vessels, the impact of the current and future sanctions that may impact the transportation of petroleum products, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, which have and may continue to disrupt certain global shipping routes, vessel breakdowns and instances of off‐hires, and other factors. Please see the Company's filings with the SEC for a more complete discussion of certain of these and other risks and uncertainties.
