HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE FOURTH QUARTER

  • EBITDA for the current fleet increased to USD 35.4 million in 4Q 2024, from USD 26.2 million in 4Q 2023 (adjusted for the 9 vessels sold in July 2024).
  • Secured a multi-well project together with Viking Supply Ships for 3 AHTS' in Australia, commencing in 1Q 2025. The duration for this contract is minimum 16 wells firm. Total work for Sea1 Offshore's own vessels is estimated to be between 570 to 1000 vessel days, plus options. Exact number of days depends on the time spent on each well.
  • Contract option exercised for the OSCV "Sea1 Spearfish" for one more year until 1Q 2026.
  • Entered into shipbuilding contracts with Cosco Shipping (Qidong) Offshore Co. Ltd. for two high-end Offshore Energy Support Vessels. The vessels have scheduled deliveries from first quarter 2027 to second quarter 2027. The Company and Cosco Shipping are in discussion around future potential for further new building vessels.
  • Purchased the shares in the subsidiary Sea1 AHTS Pool AS owned by a minority shareholder, representing 22% of the shares in the company. Following the transaction, Sea1 Offshore Inc. owns 100% of the shares in Sea1 AHTS Pool AS, which owns five AHTS vessels.
  • The Research vessel "Joides Resolution" entered into layup in Kristiansand pending potential contract opportunities.
  • A long-term incentive plan ("LTIP") established for the management team of the Company

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

  • On the back of solid results, a strong balance sheet and a significant backlog, a special dividend payment of NOK 7 per share was made to shareholders on 22 January 2025.
  • Refinanced debt related to its two well intervention vessels. New credit facilities from commercial banks in a total amount of USD 250 million have been agreed, divided between a term loan and a revolving credit facility. Existing debt in a total amount of USD 102 million was repaid.
  • Management for the nine sold vessels will be gradually transferred to a new manager during the period from January to April 2025.

MARKET AND OUTLOOK

The Construction Support Vessel market is almost sold out now, giving record rates for owners with available vessels. This is supported by a trend where engineering, procurement and construction (EPC) companies are taking vessels on long-term contracts. The strong outlook has led to orders for new builds in the 150 T and 250 T segments.

As usual, the North Sea AHTS market softened in 4Q 2024 after the project season, with vessels arriving back from both Africa and Canada, increasing availability, and putting pressure on rates.

The semi-rig activity in Australia will see a temporary decrease in 2025, which may result in more available support vessels in the region, or migration of vessels to other regions. This could, in the short term, lead to regional pressure on rates and utilization before we see new rig activity, which is expected in 2026.

The semi-rig count on the Norwegian side of the North Sea is expected to increase in 2025. This is positive and will hopefully give a rate and utilization uplift for the large AHTS vessels.

The AHTS project outlook for the North Sea, West Africa, Canada and Australia for the 2025 season is also promising, especially for larger AHTS with good capacities for FPSO mooring work. This will extract vessels out of the North Sea spot market and limit the supply side locally.

In Brazil, Petrobras has increased its E&P budgets, which leads to an increasing number of deepwater FPSO developments. In 2025, 4-5 new FPSOs will be installed in Brazil, and a total of 14 new FPSOs will be installed by 2029 by Petrobras and other international oil companies. Lately, Petrobras has been issuing tenders in categories such as PSV, AHTS, RSV, SOV, and MPSV, which is presently pulling vessels out of the North Sea and other regions. In addition, Petrobras is launching newbuild tenders for RSV, AHTS and PSV/OSRV vessel categories to be built at domestic yards. These vessels are expected to enter the market earliest in 2028 and onwards.

The expectations for 2025 are for further growth in the OSV market and increased demand. Tight supply in certain vessel segments will continue, but on the back of this, it also leads to steady day rates with potential for further

improvements, which can bolster the case for more CSV newbuilds. Demand is expected to increase during 2025, and the challenge to secure high-end tonnage for charterers could become an increasing issue.

RESULTS AND FINANCE

Income Statements (4Q 2024 over 4Q 2023)

Operating revenues were USD 68.4 million (2023: USD 85.2 million). EBITDA was USD 35.4 million (2023: USD

40.1 million). The decrease in revenues from 4Q 2023 of USD 16.7 million was mainly caused by the sale of 9 vessels in July 2024 (USD 27.6 million in revenue for the sold vessels in 4Q 2023), partly offset by uplift in charter rates due to increased demand, particularly in the AHTS segment. The operating expenses decreased from 4Q 2023 by USD 11.7 million mainly due to the sale of 9 vessels in July 2024 (USD 13.7 million in operating cost for the sold vessels in 4Q 2023), partly offset by changes in area of operation and higher crew cost in Australia. A substantial part of these effects also resulted in a corresponding increase in revenues as these items are covered by charterers under the contractual terms. Administrative expenses were USD 6.4 million (2023: USD 6.7 million).

Operating profit/(loss) was USD 17.3 million (2023: USD 90.5 million) after depreciation and amortization

expenses of USD 13.4 million (2023: USD 16.4 million) and after reversal of impairment of 67.0 million in 2023. Reduction of depreciation and amortization is mainly explained by fewer owned vessels in the quarter, following the sale of nine vessels in July 2024. Other gain/(loss) mainly relates to a profit-sharing agreement in relation to the sale of the AHTS vessels in July 2024.

Net financial items were USD -13.7 million (2023: USD -9.0 million) and include a net revaluation gain/(loss) of

currency items of USD -8.3 million (2023: USD -3.0 million), of which USD -7.5 million was unrealized (2023: USD -2.5 million).

The net profit/(loss) attributable to shareholders was USD 3.2 million (2023: USD 100.0 million), representing USD

0.02 per share (2023: USD 0.42 per share).

Results for the Fourth Quarter 2024

Note that the operating revenue and operating cost for the nine vessels sold has been moved from its original segment and is now presented under the "Other" segment also for the comparable figures for 2023.

Platform Supply Vessels (PSVs)

The Company had 2 PSVs in the fleet at the end of the quarter (2023: 2, excluding the 4 PSV vessels sold to Siem).

The PSVs recorded operating revenues of USD 6.0 million and had 100% utilization (2023: USD 3.7 million and

95%). The operating margin before administrative expenses for the PSVs was USD 3.9 million (2023: USD 1.4 million).

Subsea Vessels

The Company had 2 Offshore Subsea Construction Vessels (OSCVs), 2 Well-Intervention Vessels (WIVs) and 1 Scientific Core-drilling vessel at the end of the quarter (2023: 2 OSCVs, excluding the 2 OSCV vessels sold to Siem, 2 WIVs and 1 Scientific core-drilling vessel). The Subsea vessels earned operating revenues of USD 30.4 million and had 100% utilization excluding vessel in lay-up (2023: USD 34.3 million and 98%). The operating margin before administrative expenses was USD 21.4 million (2023: USD 23.0 million). The revenues and operating margin decreased from 2023 despite higher rates for the OSCV's, as the Scientific core-drilling vessel did not generate revenues in 4Q 2024.

Anchor-Handling Tug Supply (AHTS) Vessels

The Company had 5 large AHTS vessels and 1 medium-sized AHTS vessel at the end of the quarter (2023: 5, excluding the 3 AHTS vessels sold to Siem + 1 medium-sized AHTS). The AHTS fleet earned operating revenues of USD 26.2 million and had 82% utilization (2023: USD 15.5 million and 66%). The operating margin before administrative expenses was USD 13.4 million (2023: USD 6.6 million). The revenues and operating margin increased from 2023 mainly due to increased charter rates and utilization.

Other Vessels

The Company had a fleet of 4 smaller Fast Crew & Oil Spill Recovery Vessels at the end of the quarter (2023: 4).

No vessels were in lay-up at the end of the quarter (2023: 2 vessels). Two vessels are on bareboat contracts to clients.

Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) & Health, Safety, Environment & Quality (HSEQ)

HSEQ

The Company has a continuous focus on safe and sustainable operations.

During 4Q 2024, Sea1 Offshore has operated diligently towards ESG goals, KPI's and strategy by means of several points of impact, such as:

  • The "Annual safety wheel" defines priority topics and associated actions to ensure a stronger common focus on main challenges. We share our main topics with the industry. The main quarterly topics are personnel injuries, environment, mental health and health/working environment.
  • Becoming an active member of the IMCA's global safety and security board.
  • The Sustainable HSEQ and Business Compliance Strategy revised according to latest trends.
  • 4Q - 2024 Safety Campaign - "Avoid hand and finger injuries" was rolled out in November.
  • High-levelHSSE meeting with Equinor, shipping companies and ship managers held in November. Sharing of incidents and good practices.
  • Transparent and quality reporting of incidents is required by clients and our company - clients are very satisfied with Sea1 Offshores' reporting culture.
  • High level of customer satisfaction, in operations and safety attitude onboard.
  • Following serious incidents, the company investigates together with clients to identify root causes and to define corrective actions. Sharing of findings is an important part of this.
  • Increased frequency of managerial visits/leadership engagements onboard our vessels.

Environment

For fleet emissions, the Company reports on the Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII), a proxy that measures grams CO2 total tailpipe emission per hour in operation. The CII was at the end of 3Q 2024 at 137.0g/kWh, and as per 31 December 2024 at 148.7g/kWh. The increase is mainly due to change in fleet mix. The Company proceeds with strenuous efforts to reduce emissions. The Company's goal of 50% reduction in 2030 compared to 2008 levels is in line with recommendations given by the Norwegian Shipowners Association.

In 4Q 2024 there were no oil spills to sea or other environmental incidents.

Social

The Company's main KPI on safety, Total Recordable Injury Frequency (TRIF), was 0.87 for the quarter (excluding four vessels in Brazil), positively below our target of 1.95. In the quarter there was one Lost Time Incident (LTI), giving a rolling 12month average of 0.64.

At end of the quarter, the relative share of female staff was 40.5% onshore and 6.7% offshore. As per our Human Rights policy, Sea1 Offshore is committed to the principles of non-discrimination and equal opportunity, regardless of gender, nationality, beliefs, or other factors.
