Exhibit 99.1










Highlights


“During the first quarter of 2023, we saw a sustained strong product tanker market with high volatility, primarily driven by changes in the global flow of refined oil products towards longer haul trades,” says Jacob Meldgaard and continues: “In the first quarter we achieved freight rates across our fleet of USD/day 41,717 compared to USD/day 16,743 in the first quarter of 2022.”

Business highlights

As previously announced we completed acquisitions of seven second-hand LR1 vessels and three second-hand MR vessels, increasing TORM’s total fleet size to 88 vessels on a fully delivered basis.

As of 11 May 2023, we had taken delivery of the seven LR1 vessels. The three MR vessels are expected to be delivered before the end of May 2023.

As previously announced we obtained commitment for refinancing of USD 433m bank and leasing agreements, thereby extending debt maturities until 2028 with a possibility to extend most of the debt expiration to 2029. Further, we have obtained commitment for financing of additional second-hand vessels for up to USD 123m with the same expiration terms. The transactions are expected to be completed before the end of Q2 2023.

We reached a total of 59 installed scrubbers during Q1 2023 out of 77 planned across the fleet.

Based on broker valuations, TORM’s fleet had a market value of USD 2,893.3m including delivered vessels as of 31 March 2023, an increase since 31 December 2022 of USD 243m or 9%.
 

Based on broker valuations, TORM’s consolidated Net Asset Value (NAV) excluding charter commitments was estimated at USD 2,560.2m.

Financial review




TCE
Revenue for the first three months of 2023 increased by USD 180.8m to USD 390.2m compared to the same period last year, corresponding to an 86% increase. The significant increase in the revenue can primarily be attributed to the higher freight rates. Higher freight rates continue to be driven by a strong product tanker market supported by the trade recalibration caused by the sanctions and self-sanctioning of Russian product exports as a consequence of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We saw a significant increase in the average TCE rate/day by 149% from 16,743 to 41,717 in the first three months compared to same period last year.

Port expenses, bunkers, commissions, and other cost of goods sold for the three months period was USD 122.1m, an increase of USD 36.1m compared to USD 86.0m in the same period last year. The increase is driven by increased bunker consumption, and an increase in unrealized losses on derivative financial instruments regarding freight and bunkers of USD 14.2m since end of Q1 2022 to USD 15.8m.

Assets
As of 31 March 2023, total assets were USD 2,864.4m (2022, same period: USD 2,315.8m). The increase was primarily driven by an increase in trade receivables of USD 125.9m and an increase in cash position of USD 316.1m resulting from higher revenue. TORM´s liquidity position by the end of Q1 2023 was USD 574.6m including restricted cash of USD 29.8m and undrawn credit facilities of USD 163.9m.
The carrying value of the fleet was USD 2,025.3m as of 31 March 2023 (2022, same period: USD 1,942.8m). The increase was due to investment in six vessels and capitalized dry-docking of USD 276.4m. Five of the six vessels were purchased during Q1 2023.
 
The increase since 31 March 2022 was offset by divestment of seven vessels of USD 60.6m as well as depreciations and impairments of USD 133.3m. Based on broker valuations, TORM’s fleet had a market value of USD 2,893.3m as of 31 March 2023, 43% above carrying value.

As of 31 March 2023, prepayments were USD 26.3m (2022, same period: USD 7.2m). The increase relates to the transfer of funds to the share registry that facilitates the dividend payment to US non-major shareholding investors. Payment to shareholders was made on 05 April 2023.

Equity
As of 31 March 2023, TORM’s equity was USD 1,656.9m (2022, same period: USD 1,094.5m). The increase was mainly driven by an increase in retained profit as a result of increased freight rates.

As announced on 29 March 2023, TORM has extraordinarily decided to grant the CEO and certain employees 1,633,222 restricted stock options in an additional retention program, which fully vest 01 March 2026. The fair value of the options was determined using the Black-Scholes model and amounts to USD 51.1m. For the first three months of 2023, the dilutive effect on earnings per share of this program would amount to USD 0.04.
Cash flow statement
Net cash flow from operating activities for the first three months of 2023 was USD 214.7m (2022, same period: USD 17.9m). The increase was primarily driven by an increase in TCE.

Net cash flow from investing activities for the first three months of 2023 was USD -241.6m (2022, same period: USD -39.7m), as a result of the purchase and delivery of five secondhand vessels.
 
Net cash flow from financing activities for the first three months of 2023 was USD 87.3m (2022, same period: USD -48.1m). The increase was primarily driven by proceeds from borrowings as a result of higher vessel purchase activities. Additionally, refinancing in connection with a vessel sale and leaseback and repayment of the working capital facility was made in Q1 2022 and not in Q1 2023.

Distribution
A dividend of USD 1.46 per share has been approved by the Board of Directors for the three months ended 31 March 2023. The distribution is in line with TORM’s Distribution Policy with cash position (USD +410.7m), Working Capital Facilities (USD +115.0m), restricted cash (USD -29.8m) and earmarked proceeds (USD - 23.4m), dividend payable (USD -197.0m) and a cash position related to Marine Exhaust Technology A/S (USD -4.8m). Cash reservation per vessel is USD 1.8m or for 83 vessels USD 149.4m in total.

The product tanker market



Market development in Q1 2023
The product tanker market remained strong in the first quarter of 2023, although volatile and at a lower level than in the previous quarter. Prices for modern newbuild and secondhand product tankers have stayed at multi-year highs.

At the start of the first quarter, product tanker freight rates weakened on earlier-than-usual refinery maintenance in the US Gulf, coupled with slower trade flows towards Europe on elevated middle distillate stockpiles. However, as the EU ban against Russian oil products and the G7 price gap regime took effect on 05 February 2023, product tanker ton-miles increased on the EU sourcing products from further afield (especially from the Middle East) while Russia managed to redirect its exports to destinations further away. Strikes at French refineries helped to bring middle distillate stocks somewhat lower.
 
Market outlook
In the second quarter, product tanker market has remained volatile but at a generally strong level. The effect of the surprising OPEC+ production cut for product tankers is expected to be limited and outweighed by longer trade distances from Europe’s shift away from Russian diesel. This is likely to be further facilitated by the ramp-up of the Jazan and Al Zour refineries in the Middle East. In the medium term, the market remains supported by low order book and changes in the refinery landscape.

Outlook for Q2 and full year 2023


Financial outlook for 2023
To assess our financial performance, the number of covered days, interest-bearing bank debt, the TCE market, and EBITDA sensitivity to freight rates are included in our periodic ongoing reporting.

The primary driver for our financial performance is the product tanker market which is highly uncertain and therefore expected to be highly volatile. We expect to maintain relatively stable OPEX on a per vessel day basis, however, with a slightly increasing trend compared to recent historical levels.

Our financial outlook is primarily based on the assumptions described on the preceding pages, and the most important macroeconomic factors affecting our TCE earnings in 2023 are expected to be:

The EU ban on imports and transportation of Russian crude oil and oil products, and the G7 price gap vis-à-vis imports of Russian oil by third countries
Global economic growth or recession, consumption of refined oil products, and inflationary pressure
Location of closing and opening refineries and temporary shutdowns due to maintenance
Oil price development
Oil trading activity and developments in ton-mile
Bunker price developments
Global fleet growth and newbuilding ordering activity
Potential difficulties of major business partners
One-off market-shaping events such as strikes, embargoes, political instability, weather conditions, etc.
 
For further information and a detailed description of the most significant risks, please refer to Note 24 of TORM’s Annual Report 2022.

We have very low visibility on TCE rates that are not yet fixed with our customers. Hence, these rates may be significantly lower or significantly higher than our current expectations.

For the full year 2023, TCE earnings are expected to be in the range of USD 1,025 - USD 1,375m (unchanged from most recent outlook), and EBITDA is expected to be in the range of USD 750 – 1,100m (unchanged from most recent outlook) based on the current fleet size, including published acquisitions and divestments of vessels. Please refer to page 32 for a definition of TCE earnings.

As of 05 May 2023, TORM had covered 47% of the 2023 full-year earning days at USD/day 41,198. Hence, 53% of the 2023 full-year earning days are subject to change. As 18,952 earning days in 2023 are unfixed as of 05 May 2023, a change in freight rates of USD/day 1,000 will – all other things being equal – impact the EBITDA by USD 19.0m. We expect to have 29,927 earning days in 2023.

Also as of 05 May 2023, 64% of the Q2 2023 earning days was covered at USD/day 40,086. For the individual segments, the Q2 2023 coverage was 51% at USD/day 59,197 for LR2, 62% at USD/day 45,578 for LR1 and 68% at USD/day 35,804 for MR.

TORM fleet development



TORM fleet development
The table shows TORM’s operating fleet. In addition to 55 owned product tankers, TORM had 28 vessels under sale-and-leaseback agreements with options to buy back the vessels as of 31 March 2023 (financially reported as owned vessels in accordance with our accounting policies).

During Q1 2023, TORM took delivery of five LR1 vessels including TORM Emilie, TORM Eva, TORM Integrity, TORM Innovation, TORM Emma, as part of the transactions announced in January 2023.

After Q1 2023, TORM Evelyn and TORM Evolve were delivered. TORM expects the three MR vessels purchased during March 2023 to be delivered before 31 May 2023.

As part of TORMs refinancing, that was committed during the first quarter of 2023, two leased vessels are expected to be refinanced with bank financing.

TORM expects to operate a total of 88 vessels by the end of Q2 2023.

Safe harbor statement
as to the future

Matters discussed in this 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 reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance and may 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. Words such as, but not limited to, “believe”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “estimate”, “forecast”, “project”, “plan”, “potential”, “may”, “should”, “expect”, “pending” and similar expressions or phrases may identify forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are, in turn, based upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties.

Although the Company believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, the Company cannot guarantee that it will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs, or projections.



Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking

 
 


 
statements include, but are not limited to, the strength of the world economy and currencies including central bank policies intention to combat overall inflation and rising interest rates, inflationary pressure, the general domestic and international political conditions or events, including “trade wars” and the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, including the end of the conflict, the highly cyclical natures of our business causing fluctuations in charter hire rates and vessel values caused by changes in supply vessels and constructions of newbuildings and changes in “ton-mile” demand caused by changes in worldwide OPEC petroleum production, consumption and storage, the duration and severity of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, including its impact on the demand for petroleum products and the seaborne transportation of clean products, the operations of our customers including, losses of large customers, failures of our contract counterparties to meet their obligations and changes in their credit risks, the operations of our business including availability of skilled crew members, labor disruptions, our ability to attract and retain employees, adequacy of insurance coverage, arrests of our vessels, disruption of shipping routes due to adverse weather, accidents and political events, the length and number of off-hire periods our ability to complete vessel transactions as planned, the changes in governmental rules and regulations including changes to US trade policies, applicable regulations related to bribery, our limitations under incorporation under the laws of England and Wales, the new environmental regulations and increasing scrutiny towards our ESG policies, the potential for technological innovation to reduce vessel value and charter income, the interruption or failure of our information technology and communication system including cyber-attacks, the



increased cost of capital or limited access to funding due to EU taxonomy and the potential liability from future litigation and future costs due to environmental damage and vessel collision, the potential conflicts of interest involving our board of directors and senior management .
 



In light of these risks and uncertainties, undue reliance should not be placed on forward-looking statements contained in this release because they are statements about events that are not certain to occur as described or at all. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of our future performance, and actual results and future developments may vary materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

Except to the extent required by applicable law or regulation, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions or updates to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this release or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Please see TORM’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete discussion of certain of these and other risks and uncertainties. The information set forth herein speaks only as of the date hereof, and the Company disclaims any intention or obligation to update any forward-looking statements as a result of developments occurring after the date of this communication.

NOTE 6 – PROVISIONS
In 2020, TORM was involved in cargo claims relating to a customer having granted indemnities for discharge of cargoes, and not being able to honor those obligations. The cases involved irregular activities by the customer. Legal action was initiated by TORM in the UK and in India against the customer and related individuals. TORM has recognized provisions amounting to USD 6.5m as of 31 March 2023 relating to the case complex (31 March 2022: USD 18.3m, 31 December 2022: USD 6.5m). Legal proceedings are still ongoing and therefore the provisions recognized are subject to uncertainty relating to both timing and amount.

NOTE 7 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
TORM is involved in certain legal proceedings and disputes. It is Management’s opinion that the outcome of these proceedings and disputes will not have any material impact on TORM’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.


NOTE 8 – CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND RIGHTS
As of 31 March 2023, TORM had contractual obligations regarding scrubber investments and other minor commitments of USD 17.4m (31 March 2022: USD 13.3m, 31 December 2022: USD 18.4m).

As of 31 March 2023, TORM had contractual obligations regarding second-hand vessels of USD 143.1m (31 March 2022: USD 0.0m, 31 December 2022: USD 0.0m).


NOTE 9 – POST BALANCE SHEET DATE EVENTS

After the end of Q1 2023, TORM took delivery of the last two of the seven LR1 vessels purchased in January 2023.

In April 2023, TORM paid out dividend of USD 214m as also announced in connection with the Annual Report 2022.

After the reporting date, TORM’s Board of Directors has decided to declare a dividend of USD 1.46 per share, with an expected total dividend payment of USD 121.1m. The distribution is in line with TORM’s Distribution Policy with cash position (USD +410.7m), Working Capital Facilities (USD +115.0m), restricted cash (USD -29.8m) and earmarked proceeds (USD -23.4), dividend payable (-197.0m) and a cash position related to Marine Exhaust (USD -4.8m). Cash reservation per vessel is USD 1.8m or for 83 vessels USD 149.4m in total. Payment is expected on 6 June 2023 of shareholder of record on 19 May 2023, with the ex-dividend date on 22 May 2023. The dividends have not been recognized as liabilities and there are no tax consequences.

 


NOTE 10 – RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
On 01 September 2022, TORM purchased 75% of the shares in Marine Exhaust Technology A/S thereby obtaining a controlling interest in its joint venture entity Marine Exhaust Technology Ltd in Hong Kong. During the three months ended 31 March 2022, TORM’s transactions with its joint venture entity producing scrubbers for the TORM fleet covered CAPEX of USD 1.7m in total. During the three months ended 31 March 2023, there have been no related party transactions.

NOTE 11 – ACCOUNTING POLICIES & GOING CONCERN

General information
The information for the year ended 31 December 2022 does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 434 of the Companies Act 2006. A copy of the statutory accounts for that year has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those accounts was not qualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without qualifying the report and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.

The interim report for the period 01 January-31 March 2023 is not audited or reviewed.

Significant accounting policies
The interim report for the period 01 January-31 March 2023 is presented in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" (“IAS 34”) as adopted in the UK. The interim financial statements are also prepared in accordance with IAS 34 as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”) and IAS 34 as adopted by the EU, as applied to financial periods beginning on or after 01 January 2023 and the additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports of listed companies.

TORM has implemented the following standards and amendments issued by the IASB and adopted by the UK in the consolidated financial statements for 2023:


IFRS 17 Insurance Contracts

IAS 12 amendments Deferred Tax related to Assets and liabilities arising from a Single Transaction

IAS 8 amendments Definition of Accounting Estimates

IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 amendments Disclosure of Accounting Policies

It is assessed that application of these effective on 01 January 2023 has not had any material impact on the consolidated financial statements in 2023. The interim report has been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of computation as in the Annual Report 2022.

For critical estimates and judgements, please refer to the Annual Report 2022, pages 134-135.
 



TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER 2023

NOTE 11 - Continued

Going concern
TORM monitors its funding position throughout the year to ensure that it has access to sufficient funds to meet its forecast cash requirements, including newbuilding, second-hand vessels and loan commitments, and to monitor compliance with the financial covenants within its loan facilities. As of 31 March 2023, TORM’s available liquidity including undrawn facilities was USD 574.6m, including a total cash position of USD 410.7m (including restricted cash of USD 29.8m).
TORM’s net interest-bearing debt was USD 646.5m, and the net debt loan-to-value ratio was 25.9%. TORM performs sensitivity calculations to reflect different scenarios including, but not limited to, future freight rates and vessel valuations in order to identify risks to future liquidity and covenant compliance and to enable Management to take corrective actions, if required.

The sensitivity calculation is similar to those applied in connection with covenant testing in the Annual Report 2022. The principal risks and uncertainties facing TORM are set out on page 6.

A key element for TORM’s financial performance in the going concern period relates to the increased geopolitical risk following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 and the associated effects on the product tanker market. The changed geopolitical situation has so far been positive for the product tanker market, and TORM’s base case assumes that this positive sentiment related to freight rates and vessel values will continue throughout 2023 and H1 2024. In the base case, TORM has sufficient liquidity and headroom for all the covenant limits.

The Board of Directors has considered TORM’s cash flow forecasts and the expected compliance with TORM’s financial covenants for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of this interim report. Based on this review, the Board of Directors has a reasonable expectation that, taking into account reasonably possible changes in trading performance and vessel valuations, TORM’s will be able to continue in operational existence and comply with its financial covenants for the next 12 months. Accordingly, TORM’s continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

Alternative performance measures group



Throughout the interim report, several alternative performance measures (APMs) are used.
The APMs used are the same as in the Annual Report 2022 and therefore we refer to the principles for these on pages 198-202 in the TORM plc Annual Report 2022. The following
APMs relate to the Group.

Net profit/(loss) for the year excluding non-recurrent items: Net profit/loss excluding non-recurrent items is net profit/loss less non-recurring items, e.g. impairment and reversals of impairment on vessels, profit from sale of vessels and claims provisions. TORM reports net profit excluding non-recurrent items because we believe it provides additional meaningful information to investors regarding the operational performance excluding non-recurrent fluctuations.

Adjusted Return on Invested Capital (Adjusted RoIC): TORM defines adjusted RoIC as earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) less tax and non-recurrent items, divided by the average invested capital less average impairment for the period. Invested capital is defined below.

The Adjusted RoIC expresses the returns generated on capital invested in TORM adjusted for impacts related to non-recurrent items. The progression of RoIC is used by TORM to measure progress against our longer-term value creation goals outlined to investors. Adjusted RoIC is calculated as follows:

¹ Average invested capital is calculated as the average of the opening and closing balance of invested capital.
² Average impairment is calculated as the average of the opening and closing balances of impairment charges on vessels and goodwill in the balance sheet.

 
EBITDA: TORM defines EBITDA as earnings before financial income and expenses, depreciation, impairment, amortization, and taxes. The computation of EBITDA refers to financial income and expenses which TORM deems to be equivalent to “interest” for purposes of presenting EBITDA. Financial expenses consist of interest on bank loans and leasing liabilities, losses on foreign exchange transactions and bank charges. Financial income consists of interest income and gains on foreign exchange transactions.

EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by Management and external users of financial statements, such as lenders, to assess TORM's operating performance as well as compliance with the financial covenants and restrictions contained in TORM's financing agreements. TORM believes that EBITDA assists Management and investors in evaluating TORM’s operating performance by increasing comparability of TORM's performance from period to period. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects of interest, depreciation, impairment, amortization, and taxes. These are items which could be affected by various changing financing methods and capital structures, which may significantly affect profit/(loss) between periods. Including EBITDA as a measure benefits investor in selecting between investment alternatives.

EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items which affect profit/(loss), and these items may vary among other companies and may therefore not be directly comparable. The following table reconciles EBITDA to net profit/ (loss), the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, for the periods presented:

Invested capital: TORM defines invested capital as the sum of intangible assets, tangible fixed assets, investments in joint ventures, deferred tax assets, other investments, bunkers, accounts receivables, assets held for sale (when applicable), non-current tax liability related to held over gains, deferred tax liabilities, trade payables, current tax liabilities, dividend payable, provisions and deferred income. Invested capital measures the net investment used to achieve our operating profit. TORM believes that invested capital is a relevant measure which Management uses to measure the overall development of the assets and liabilities generating our net profit. Such measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Invested capital is calculated as follows:

Net interest-bearing debt: Net interest-bearing debt is defined as mortgage debt and bank loans (current and non-current), lease liabilities less cash equivalents and interest-bearing loan receivables. Net interest-bearing debt depicts the net capital resources, which cause net interest expenditure and interest rate risk and which, together with equity, are used to finance our investments. As such, TORM believes that net interest-bearing debt is a relevant measure, which Management uses to measure the overall development of our use of financing, other than equity. Such measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Net interest-bearing debt is calculated as follows:

Liquidity: TORM defines liquidity as available cash, comprising cash and cash equivalents, including restricted cash, as well as undrawn and committed credit facilities. TORM finds the APM important as the liquidity expresses TORM’s financial position, ability to meet current liabilities and cash buffer. Further, it expresses TORM’s ability to act and invest when new possibilities occur.

Net Asset Value per share (NAV/share): TORM believes that the NAV/share is a relevant measure which Management uses to measure the overall development of the assets and liabilities per share. Such measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. NAV/share is calculated using broker values of vessels and excluding charter commitments. NAV/share is calculated as follows:

Glossary
Alternative performance
measures Tanker segment


Throughout the interim report, several alternative performance measures (APMs) are used. The APMs used are the same as in the Annual Report 2022 and therefore we refer to the principles for these on pages 198-202 in the TORM plc Annual Report 2022. After the acquisition of Marine Exhaust Technology A/S on 01 September 2022, the following APMs relate to the primary segment, the Tanker segment.

Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) earnings: TORM defines TCE earnings, a performance measure, as revenue less port expenses, bunkers and commissions incl. freight and bunker derivatives. TORM reports TCE earnings because we believe it provides additional meaningful information to investors in relation to revenue, the most directly comparable IFRS measure. TCE earnings 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 charters, time charters and bareboat charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Below is presented a reconciliation from revenue to TCE earnings:

Net Loan-to-value (LTV): TORM defines Loan-to-value (LTV) ratio as vessel values divided by net borrowings of the vessels.

LTV describes the net debt ratio of the vessels and is used by TORM to describe the financial situation and the liquidity risk as well as to express the future possibilities to raise new capital by new loan facilities.
