Covid-19 is still causing operational challenges related to our seafarers and the ability to change crews at regular intervals and at convenient locations. The situation has improved but in addition to certain countries having restrictions affecting crew changes with transit and quarantine procedures, some customers have implemented their own restrictions adding complexities to the situation, hence we are still experiencing limits with respect to the number of geographical options to execute crew changes. We continue to do everything reasonably possible to facilitate safe and regular crew changes. As of the date of this report, all our seafarers are fully vaccinated at the time of joining a vessel, as is the majority of our onboard sailing crew.
The near-term market outlook is showing signs of improvement although still impacted by geopolitical events. The Covid-19 situation in China and its lockdowns is slowing down the demand recovery. The geopolitical events challenging the energy security situation are impacting the price and availability of oil; with the oil price curve in backwardation. Near term, this stimulates consumption of inventories as opposed to building inventories. OPEC is forecasting a meaningful increase in global oil demand next year and states it needs to deliver a significant production increase to meet such forecasted demand. We would expect such a scenario to be positive for demand for oil transportation.
The trade disruptions resulting from the current geopolitical conflicts have increased transportation distances and, given various physical restrictions for larger sized vessels, have primarily been supportive of freight routes for smaller sized vessels. These trade disruptions have also changed the sourcing of refined oil products, supporting freight rates for product tankers. As we find it hard to assume a dislocation between clean and dirty tankers can persist for a prolonged period of time, we think it is reasonable to expect a market adjustment to occur. As this happens at a time of low inventories of crude oil, barring macroeconomic setbacks, we think it is logical to expect demand for feedstock and thus crude oil transportation to improve as a result of the current situation.
The dynamics of the oil market could set crude oil transportation up for a rewarding period of strengthening freight rates. The world fleet is rapidly aging at a time when ordering of new ships is very limited. It is not unthinkable for the fleet to shrink at a time when demand for transportation is expected to recover, likely creating a rewarding environment for large tankers. All things considered, we are convinced of the merits of our strategy with reduced financial leverage and low cash break-even levels to protect the downside without giving away the upside. We believe our company is well structured for cyclical markets and that our strategy will reward our shareholders.
As of June 30, 2022, DHT had a fleet of 24 VLCCs, with a total dwt of 7,453,519. For more details on the fleet, please refer to the web site: https://www.dhtankers.com/fleetlist/

SUBSEQUENT EVENT HIGHLIGHTS:
● | In July 2022, the Company entered into a five-year time-charter for DHT Osprey at $37,000 per day, with charterer’s option to extend two additional years, at $40,000 per day and $45,000 per day, respectively. The vessel is expected to deliver into the contract in August. |
● | In July 2022, the Company agreed to a $37.5 million refinancing of the DHT Tiger with Credit Agricole. The new facility has a tenor of 6 years and an amortization profile of 20 years. It will bear an interest rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a margin of 2.05%, which includes the historical Credit Adjustment Spread (CAS) of 26 basis points. As such, the cost of the facility would compare to a Libor equivalent margin of 179 basis points, representing a reduction in the Company’s borrowing cost. |
● | The Company has committed $25 million to retrofit an additional 8 vessels with scrubbers. The vessels are DHT Colt, DHT Jaguar, DHT Leopard, DHT Lion, DHT Panther, DHT Puma, DHT Stallion and DHT Tiger. All the vessels are of Eco-design and built between 2015 and 2018. The Company expects to commence the retrofit program in Q4 2022 and complete during Q1 2023. The combination of lower cost and the current higher fuel spreads makes this a compelling investment. The investment will be funded with liquidity at hand hence no new debt will be issued. Following the completion of this project, the Company will have 23 vessels fitted with scrubbers. |
● | So far in the third quarter of 2022, the Company has purchased 1,499,608 of its own shares in the open market for an aggregate consideration of $8.8 million, at an average price of $5.8721. All shares have been retired upon receipt. As of the date of this report, the Company has 162,653,339 shares outstanding. |
OUTLOOK:
● | Thus far in the third quarter of 2022, 68% of the available VLCC days have been booked at an average rate of $23,600 per day on a discharge-to-discharge basis (not including any potential profit splits on time charters). |

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Company assesses the financial performance of its business using a variety of measures. Certain of these measures are termed “non-GAAP measures” because they exclude amounts that are included in, or include amounts that are excluded from, the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS, or are calculated using financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with IFRS. These non-GAAP measures include “Adjusted Net Revenue”, “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted spot time charter equivalent per day”. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information for its investors and, when considered together with the Company’s IFRS financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s operations. In addition, DHT’s management measures the financial performance of the Company, in part, by using these non-GAAP measures, along with other performance metrics. The Company does not regard these non-GAAP measures as a substitute for, or as superior to, the equivalent measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under IFRS.

NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
FOR THE PERIOD ENDED JUNE 30, 2022
Note 1 – General information
DHT Holdings, Inc. (“DHT” or the “Company”) is a company incorporated under the laws of the Marshall Islands whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company’s principal executive office is located at Clarendon House, 2 Church Street, Hamilton HM 11, Bermuda. The Company is engaged in the ownership and operation of a fleet of crude oil carriers.
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on August 9, 2022, and authorized for issue on August 10, 2022.
Note 2 – General accounting principles
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with DHT’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2021. The interim results are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or for any future periods.
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those presented in the 2021 audited consolidated financial statements.
These condensed consolidated interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.
Business combinations
Acquisitions of businesses are accounted for using the acquisition method. The consideration transferred in a business combination is measured at fair value, which is calculated as the sum of the acquisition-date fair values of the assets transferred by the Company, liabilities incurred by the Company to the former owners of the acquiree and the equity interests issued by the Company in exchange for control of the acquiree. Acquisition-related costs are recognized in the consolidated income statement as incurred.
For business combinations achieved in stages, otherwise known as step acquisitions, previously held equity interests in the acquiree are remeasured to fair value. The resulting gain or loss are recognized in the consolidated income statement.
At the acquisition date, the identifiable assets, liabilities, and contingent liabilities that meet the conditions for recognition are recognized at their fair value, except for non-current assets that are classified as held for sale and are recognized at the lower of carrying amount and fair value less cost to sell, and deferred tax assets and liabilities which are recognized at nominal value.
Goodwill arising on acquisition is recognized as an asset measured at the excess of the sum of the consideration transferred, the fair value of any previously held equity interest and the amount of any non-controlling interests in the acquiree over the net amounts of the identifiable assets acquired and the liabilities assumed. If, after reassessment, the Company’s interest in the net fair value of the acquiree’s identifiable assets, liabilities and contingent liabilities exceed the total consideration of the business combination, the excess is recognized in the income statement immediately.
If the initial accounting for a business combination is incomplete by the end of the reporting period in which the combination occurs, the Company reports provisional amounts for the items for which the accounting is incomplete. Those provisional amounts are adjusted during the measurement period, or additional assets or liabilities are recognized, to reflect new information obtained about facts or circumstances that existed at the acquisition date that, if known, would have affected the amounts recognized at that date.
15
Application of new and revised International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”)
New and amended standards and interpretations that are issued, but not yet effective, are disclosed below. The below list includes the new standards and amendments that we believe are most relevant for the Company:
o | Amendments to IAS 1 Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current |
o | Disclosure of Accounting Policies – Amendments to IAS 1 and IFRS Practice Statement 2 |
The Company is currently assessing the amendments to determine the impact they will have on the Company’s accounting policy disclosures.
Note 3 – Segment reporting
DHT’s primary business is operating a fleet of crude oil tankers, with a secondary activity of providing technical management services. Management organizes and manages the entity as one segment based upon the magnitude of services provided. The Company’s Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), being the President & Chief Executive Officer, reviews the Company’s operating results on a consolidated basis as one operating segment as defined in IFRS 8, Operating Segments.
The below table details the Company’s total revenues:

Note 4 – Business combination
In May 2022, DHT Holdings, Inc., acquired an additional 3.2% ownership of Goodwood Ship Management Pte. Ltd. (“Goodwood”) a privately owned ship management company incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Singapore for a purchase price of $0.4 million in cash. A change in Goodwood’s partnership structure allowed the Company to increase its shareholding under the existing partnership agreement. Goodwood currently manages 23 of DHT’s vessels.
Following the acquisition, the Company’s ownership percentage increased to 53.2%, with the Company obtaining control over Goodwood in what is known as a step acquisition. Previously held equity interests in Goodwood were remeasured to a fair value of $6.0 million, resulting in a loss of $0.6 million, which is recognized under other financial (expense)/income in the consolidated income statement.
The Company has elected to measure the non-controlling interests in Goodwood at the proportionate share of identifiable net assets.

Derivatives - interest rate swaps
Only derivatives are classified and measured at fair value in the statement of financial position. Fair value measurement is based on Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined in IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement. Such measurement is based on techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are observable. Future cash flows are estimated based on forward interest rates (from observable yield curves at the end of the reporting period) and contract interest rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of various counterparties.

Note 6 – Vessels
The carrying values of the vessels may not represent their fair market value at any point in time since the market prices of second-hand vessels tend to fluctuate with changes in charter rates and the cost of constructing new vessels. Historically, both charter rates and vessel values have been cyclical. The carrying amounts of vessels held and used by us are reviewed for potential impairment or reversal of prior impairment charges whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of a particular vessel may not accurately reflect the recoverable amount of a particular vessel.

Note 11 – Subsequent events
In July 2022, the Company entered into a five-year time-charter for DHT Osprey at $37,000 per day, with charterer’s option to extend two additional years, at $40,000 per day and $45,000 per day, respectively. The vessel is expected to deliver into the contract in August.
In July 2022, the Company also agreed to a $37.5 million refinancing of the DHT Tiger with Credit Agricole. The new facility has a tenor of 6 years and an amortization profile of 20 years. It will bear an interest rate of Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) plus a margin of 2.05%, which includes the historical Credit Adjustment Spread (CAS) of 26 basis points. As such, the cost of the facility would compare to a Libor equivalent margin of 179 basis points, representing a reduction in the Company’s borrowing cost.
On August 9, 2022, the Board approved a dividend of $0.04 per common share related to the second quarter 2022 to be paid on August 30, 2022, for shareholders of record as of August 23, 2022.
The Company has committed $25 million to retrofit an additional 8 vessels with scrubbers. The vessels are DHT Colt, DHT Jaguar, DHT Leopard, DHT Lion, DHT Panther, DHT Puma, DHT Stallion and DHT Tiger. All the vessels are of Eco-design and built between 2015 and 2018. The Company expects to commence the retrofit program in Q4 2022 and complete during Q1 2023. The combination of lower cost and the current higher fuel spreads makes this a compelling investment. The investment will be funded with liquidity at hand hence no new debt will be issued. Following the completion of this project, the Company will have 23 vessels fitted with scrubbers.
So far in the third quarter of 2022, the Company has purchased 1,499,608 of its own shares in the open market for an aggregate consideration of $8.8 million, at an average price of $5.8721. All shares have been retired upon receipt. As of the date of this report, the Company has 162,653,339 shares outstanding.
