Exhibit 99.1
TORM pursues long-term comprehensive financing solution. The announced rights issue and the EGM has been postponed |
The renewed global economic uncertainty in especially the second half of 2011 has accentuated the pressure on TORM’s earnings. TORM has consequently decided to review its capital structure with the intent of establishing a more long-term financing structure. TORM is in close discussions with its banks regarding an amended and extended repayment schedule of its debt. In addition, the Company has initiated dialogue with other main stakeholders. It is anticipated that a rights issue of up to USD 300 million will be a part of the comprehensive financing plan. The previously announced equity rights issue and the extraordinary general meeting will be postponed. Consequently the extraordinary general meeting on 22 November 2011 has been cancelled. As a part of the plan, TORM will continue its ongoing efficiency programme and will be targeting new cost and cash improving initiatives with a cumulative impact of minimum USD 100 million over the next three years. “It is now evident that the current low cyclical freight rate levels may continue longer than anyone had expected. This calls for extraordinary actions and TORM is exploring all possible levers. The announced USD 100 million rights issue no longer represents an appropriate answer. I am confident that TORM and its stakeholders will find a solution that is sustainable and will be supported by all the Company’s shareholders,” says N.E. Nielsen, Chairman of the Board. |

Safe Harbor statements as to the future Matters discussed in this release may constitute forward-looking statements. 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 statements other than statements of historical facts. The forward-looking statements in this 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 our records and other data available from third parties. Although TORM 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 our control, TORM 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 the strength of the world economy and currencies, changes in charter hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand for “tonne miles” of oil carried by oil tankers, the effect of changes in OPEC’s petroleum production levels and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in demand that may affect attitudes of time charterers to scheduled and unscheduled dry-docking, changes in TORM’s operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry-docking and insurance costs, changes in the regulation of shipping operations, including requirements for double hull tankers or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents and political events or acts by terrorists. Risks and uncertainties are further described in reports filed by TORM with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, including the TORM Annual Report on Form 20-F and its reports on Form 6-K. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current evaluation, and TORM is only under an obligation to update and change the listed expectations to the extent required by law. |

Exhibit 99.2
Third quarter report 2011 |
TORM recognised a loss before tax of USD 70 million in the third quarter of 2011. “Third quarter of 2011 proved to be a particularly challenging quarter, as the uncertainty on the global economy continued and freight rates came under massive pressure. We are now working on a range of initiatives to improve the liquidity situation and strengthen the balance sheet,” says CEO Jacob Meldgaard. |
· | EBITDA for the third quarter of 2011 was a loss of USD 17 million, compared to a gain of USD 23 million in the third quarter of 2010. The result before tax for the third quarter of 2011 was a loss of USD 70 million, compared to a loss of USD 27 million in the same period of 2010. The third quarter of 2011 was negatively impacted by mark-to-market non-cash adjustments of USD 5 million, compared to USD 0 million in the same period of 2010. For the first nine months of 2011, a loss before tax of USD 139 million was recognised, compared to a loss of USD 49 million in the same period of 2010. |
· | The product tanker market experienced freight rates at low levels during the third quarter of 2011. Especially the freight rates in the larger segments, LR2 and LR1, suffered from the global economic uncertainty and oversupply of vessels. The US products imports fell by 29% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to the third quarter of 2010. The MR markets were affected by the traditionally weaker summer months, but spot rates on the Continent were slightly better than in the larger segments. The release of the Strategic Petroleum Reserves announced in June 2011 affected the markets negatively in August and September. Further, only limited arbitrage opportunities arose during the third quarter of 2011. |
· | The bulk market continued to be under pressure in July and the first half of August driven by a typical summer market and the remaining impact of a slowdown due to the Japanese earthquake in March. The freight rates in the Pacific and the Atlantic markets improved during the later part of August and September. The main drivers were the US led grain season and higher than usual sugar exports from Brazil plus a continued appetite for iron ore and coal in China. The third quarter of 2011 continued to see a high influx of newbuildings in all the main segments. |
· | As mentioned in announcement no. 18 dated 17 November 2011, TORM pursues long-term comprehensive financing solution. Therefore, TORM has entered into discussions with its banks and other main stakeholders. It is anticipated that a rights issue of up to USD 300 million will be a part of the comprehensive financing solution. |
· | Net interest-bearing debt was up in the third quarter of 2011 to USD 1,836 million from USD 1,824 million as at 30 June 2011. |
· | Undrawn credit facilities and cash totalled USD 237 million at the end of the third quarter of 2011, compared to USD 288 million as at 30 June 2011. Outstanding CAPEX relating to the order book amounted to USD 167 million. |
· | Equity amounted to USD 958 million as at 30 September 2011, equivalent to USD 13.8 per share, (excluding treasury shares), giving TORM an equity ratio of 31%. |
· | By 30 September 2011, TORM had covered 25% of the remaining tanker earning days in 2011 at USD/day 13,925 and 5% of earning days in 2012 at USD/day 16,122. 97% of the remaining bulk earning days in 2011 are covered at USD/day 15,402 and 64% of the 2012 earnings days at USD/day 14,257. |
· | TORM forecasts a loss before tax of USD 175-195 million for 2011 as stated in announcement no. 16 dated 31 October 2011. |

Outlook and coverage |
Since the second quarter release in August 2011, the global economic uncertainty and pressure on freight rates have persisted. In particular, the product tanker freight rates in the second half of 2011 have so far been lower than expected. As stated in announcement no. 16 dated 31 October 2011, TORM has revised its forecast for the full year to an expected loss before tax of USD 175-195 million. With 6,701 earning days for 2011 open as at 30 September 2011, a change of USD/day of 1,000 in freight rates will currently impact the profit before tax by approx. USD 7 million. As at 30 September 2011, TORM had covered 25% of the remaining earning days in 2011 in the Tanker Division at USD/day 13,925 and 97% of the remaining earning days in the Bulk Division at USD/day 15,402. The table below shows the figures for 2011 for the period from 1 October to 31 December. 2012 and 2013 are full year figures. |

Tanker Division |
The product tanker freight rates have been adversely affected by the global economic uncertainty in the third quarter of 2011. In the West, the US products imports fell by 29% in the third quarter of 2011, compared to the same period of 2010. The gasoline demand was down by 3-4% year-on-year, and the US refinery production increased, especially due to the price spread between WTI and Brent crude. Finally, the release of the Strategic Petroleum Reserves announced in June affected the markets in August and September when the actual sale and release took place. On a positive note, September saw an increase in Brazilian imports, but it was not sufficient to offset the drop in the US imports and the release of products in Europe. The dirty market in the West continued at low levels, and most owners have traded below operating expenses levels for several months. In the Far East, the naphtha demand dropped as a reflection of the uncertainty in the world economy. The large number of gasoil movements from East to West continued to be transported in Aframax and Suezmax newbuildings, taking a large part of especially the LR2 market. The fuel oil market in the Far East, which increased in activity and earnings in the second quarter of 2011, has in recent months dropped back to levels before the Japanese earthquake. The global fleet has grown by ~5% year-to-date. The slippage in newbuilding deliveries was low in the third quarter, but in the first nine months of 2011 there has been delivered 82 vessels less than predicted ultimo 2010. TORM achieved LR2 spot rates of USD/day 10,836 in the third quarter of 2011, which was 45% below the same quarter last year partly affected by vessels trading in the dirty segment. LR1 spot rates were at USD/day 9,841, down USD/day 5,333 from the previous quarter, due to the difficult tanker markets in the East. During the third quarter of 2011, TORM decided to close down the LR1 Pool, and the four remaining pool vessels have been redelivered in early October. The MR segment is TORM’s largest and it proved to be the best performing segment with spot rates of USD/day 11,749 in the third quarter of 2011. Nevertheless, this segment was down by USD/day ~2,000 from the same period last year and down by USD/day ~3,500 from the previous quarter. SR spot rates were USD/day 10,582. |

Bulk Division |
The bulk market experienced low freight rates in the third quarter of 2011 due to a typical summer market and the remaining impact of a slowdown due to the Japanese earthquake in March. The US-led grain season (including Europe and the Black Sea region) plus higher than usual sugar exports from Brazil provided additional demand, thereby creating a floor for the Pacific market, as vessels went in ballast to the more attractive market levels in the Atlantic. The Capesize market rebounded first due to tightened availability of vessels and genuine re-stocking of commodities in the Atlantic and then a continued appetite for iron ore and coal in China. As a result, the Pacific spot market on Capesize more than doubled from around USD/day 11-12,000 to USD/day 25,000. Panamax was initially negatively affected by the swing, but then rebounded to USD/day 14-15,000 and Handymax returned to similar levels after a drop. After a quiet summer the short period market returned to a similar level as for the spot market. The Atlantic spot market showed a similar trend, as Panamax dropped to USD/day 13,000 for Atlantic round voyages and increased to USD/day 17,000 as all segments were led by the stronger Cape market. The number of newbuilding deliveries in the third quarter of 2011 continued at the high levels previously seen in 2011 with 53 Capesize, 61 Panamax and 81 Handymax vessels being delivered (source: SSY). TORM’s Panamax time charter equivalent (TCE) earnings were in the third quarter of 2011 USD/day 12,140 or 41% below the third quarter of 2010. The realised third quarter 2011 TCE earnings for Handymax were USD/day 12,510, which is in line with the level in the previous quarter of 2011. The Bulk Division’s results were a negative operating profit of USD 16 million. The main drivers were i) freight rates under pressure corresponding to a loss of USD 2 million ii) build up of the fleet with 18 vessels in anticipation of the US Gulf-Black Sea grain season with a negative third quarter effect of USD 7 million, which is hedged at a profit in the fourth quarter of 2011 and iii) a negative effect of USD 7 million from mark-to-market on bunker and FFA derivatives not qualifying for hedge accounting. |

Fleet development |
No sale or purchase of vessels was concluded in the third quarter of 2011. Similarly TORM did not order any vessels in the third quarter of 2011. Thus the order book stood at four MR vessels and two Kamsarmaxes at the end of third quarter of 2011. Outstanding CAPEX relating to the order book amounted to USD 167 million. TORM’s current fleet is shown in the table below. At the end of the third quarter of 2011, TORM thus owned 67.5 product tankers and two bulk vessels. In addition, TORM had chartered-in 30 product tankers and 15 bulk vessels on longer time charter contracts (minimum one year contracts) and 25 bulk vessels on shorter time charter contracts (less than one year contracts). Another 26 product tankers were either in pools or under commercial management with TORM. |

Notes on the financial reporting
Accounting policies
The interim report for the first nine months of 2011 is presented in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU and additional Danish disclosure requirements for interim reports of listed companies. Except for the instances mentioned below, the interim report has been prepared using the accounting policies as for the Annual Report for 2010. The accounting policies are described in more detail in the Annual Report for 2010. As from 1 January 2011, TORM has implemented the following new or amended standards and interpretations: Amendment to IAS 24 "Related Party Disclosures", amendment to IAS 32 "Financial Instruments: Presentation: Classification of Rights Issues", smaller changes from Improvements to IFRS May 2010, amendment to IFRIC 14 “Prepayments of a Minimum Funding Requirement” and IFRIC 19 ”Extinguishing Financial Liabilities with Equity Instruments”. The new or amended standards and interpretations have not affected recognition and measurement in TORM’s interim report for the first nine months of 2011. The interim report for the first nine months of 2011 is unaudited, in line with the normal practice.
Income statement
The gross profit for the third quarter of 2011 was USD 2 million, compared to USD 49 million for the corresponding period in 2010.
The third quarter of 2011 was not impacted by gains from sale of vessels, which was the same in the third quarter of 2010. Administrative costs in the third quarter of 2011 were USD 17 million, compared to USD 25 million in the third quarter of 2010, which extraordinarily was affected by a one-off provision for organisational and management changes.
The result before depreciation (EBITDA) for the third quarter of 2011 was a loss of USD 17 million, compared to result of USD 23 million for the corresponding period of 2010.
Depreciation in the third quarter of 2011 was USD 36 million, up USD 1 million on the third quarter of 2010. This increase was due to addition of newer tonnage.
The primary operating result for the third quarter of 2011 was a loss of USD 53 million, compared to a loss of USD 13 million in the same quarter of 2010.
The third quarter of 2011 was negatively impacted by mark-to-market non-cash adjustments of USD 5 million in total: USD 5 million in connection with FFA/bunker derivatives and the net effect from other financial derivatives amounting to USD 0 million. The third quarter of 2010 had USD 0 million in mark-to-market non-cash adjustments.
The result after tax was a loss of USD 70 million in the third quarter of 2011, as against a loss of USD 27 million in the third quarter of 2010.
Assets
Total assets were down from USD 3,286 million as at 31 December 2010 to USD 3,119 million as at 30 September 2011. TORM estimates the fleet's total long-term earning potential each quarter based on future discounted cash flows. The estimated value for the fleet as at 30 September 2011 supports the book value.
Debt
Net interest-bearing debt was unchanged in the third quarter of 2011 at USD 1,836 million, compared to USD 1,824 million as at 30 June 2011.
Announcement no. 19 / 17 November 2011 | Third quarter report 2011 | Page 8 of 21 |
Equity
Equity declined in the third quarter of 2011 from USD 1,037 million as at 30 June 2011 to USD 958 million due to the loss during the period. Equity as a percentage of total assets was 31% as at 30 September 2011, compared to 34% as at 31 December 2010.
TORM held 3,230,432 treasury shares as at 30 September 2011, equivalent to 4.4% of the Company's share capital. This is the same level as of 30 June 2011.
Liquidity
TORM had undrawn credit facilities and cash of USD 237 million at the end of the third quarter of 2011. Outstanding CAPEX relating to the order book amounted to USD 167 million.
Post balance sheet events
As stated in announcement no. 15 dated 14 October 2011, TORM informed that it has entered into an agreement to sell the two LR2 product tankers TORM Mette and TORM Marianne. The parties have agreed not to disclose the sales price. TORM Mette and TORM Marianne will be delivered to the new owners in the fourth quarter of 2011 when the effect of the transaction will be recognised in the financial statements. The sale has no impact on the Company’s profit and loss statement, but a positive effect on the liquidity of approximately USD 20 million.

Safe Harbor statements as to the future
Matters discussed in this release may constitute forward-looking statements. 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 statements other than statements of historical facts. The forward-looking statements in this 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 our records and other data available from third parties. Although TORM 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 our control, TORM 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 the strength of the world economy and currencies, changes in charter hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand for “tonne miles” of oil carried by oil tankers, the effect of changes in OPEC’s petroleum production levels and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in demand that may affect attitudes of time charterers to scheduled and unscheduled dry-docking, changes in TORM’s operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry-docking and insurance costs, changes in the regulation of shipping operations, including requirements for double hull tankers or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents and political events or acts by terrorists.
Risks and uncertainties are further described in reports filed by TORM with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, including the TORM Annual Report on Form 20-F and its reports on Form 6-K. Forward-looking statements are based on management’s current evaluation, and TORM is only under an obligation to update and change the listed expectations to the extent required by law.

Notes
Note 1 - Impairment test
As at 30 September 2011, TORM performed a review of the recoverable amount of the assets by assessing the value in use for the significant assets within the Tanker Division, the Bulk Division and the investment in FR8. The methodology used for calculating the value in use is unchanged compared to the annual report for 2010 and accordingly freight rate estimates for the remainder of 2011, 2012 and 2013 are based on TORIVis business plans, whereas freight rates from 2014 are based on the 10-year historic average freight rates from Carksons adjusted by the inflation rate. The WACC is unchanged compared to 31 December 2010.
Based on the review , Management concluded that assets w ithin the Tanker Division and the Bulk Division w ere not impaired as of 30 September 2011, whereas the impairment losses recognized in 2009 and 2010 on the investment in FR8 totaling USD 55 million w ere maintained. The calculation of the value in use of the Tanker Division is based on the assumption that the spot freight rates in the second half of 2011 as w ell as 2012 and 2013 gradually w ill increase from the current level to equal the 10-year historic average freight rates from 1 January 2014 and onw ards. The assumed freight rates for the second half of 2011 as w ell as 2012 and 2013 are within range of freight rate estimates observable in the market. The 10-year historic average freight rates as of 30 September 2011 are as follows:
LR2 | 27,811 USD/day |
LR1 | 23,293 USD/day |
MR | 20,227 USD/day |
Applying the current assumptions the recoverable amount of the Tanker Division exceeds the carrying amount by USD 93 million. All other things being equal the recoverable amount of the Tanker Division w ill equal the carrying amount if any one of the follow ing reasonably possible changes in assumptions occurs:
● The tanker freight rates remain at the current low level for 11 months
● The estimated tanker freight rates decrease by USD/day 300
● The WACC increases by 0.4% point

The maturity profile above assumes that the maturity extension announced on 28 June 2011 is completed. The maturity profile above is based on the fact that as at 30 September 2011 TORM was in the process of securing a cash equity injection of USD 100 million, before mid December 2011. The cash equity injection is a prerequisite for the completion of the maturity extension announced on 28 June 2011. If the agreement is not completed the maturity profile w ill be that payments of USD 510 million in 2015 and USD 60 million in 2014 w ill fall due in 2013 instead
