Rhea-AI Filing Summary

TORM plc reported a very strong first quarter of 2026 as tanker markets tightened sharply. Revenue rose to USD 402m from USD 329m, time charter equivalent earnings increased to USD 286m from USD 214m, and EBITDA climbed to USD 201m from USD 136m. Net profit nearly doubled to USD 122.4m, with basic EPS up to USD 1.21 from USD 0.64, helped by fleet-wide TCE rates of USD/day 34,937.

Higher freight rates, driven by disruption around the Strait of Hormuz and shifting global trade flows, supported returns, with ROIC at 18.0%. TORM continued renewing and expanding its fleet, lifting market value to USD 3,619m and NAV to USD 3,036m. The board approved a USD 0.70 per share interim dividend, about 58% of net profit, and upgraded 2026 guidance to TCE of USD 1,150–1,450m and EBITDA of USD 800–1,100m.

Insights

Q1 2026 shows exceptional earnings momentum and a major guidance upgrade.

TORM benefited from an unusually tight product tanker market in Q1 2026. Revenue reached USD 402m and TCE earnings USD 286m, both up strongly year-on-year. Fleet-wide TCE per day rose 30% to USD 34,937, pushing EBITDA to USD 201m and net profit to USD 122.4m.

Profitability metrics improved markedly: ROIC increased to 18.0% from 10.3% and ROE to 21.9%. NAV climbed to USD 3,036m, while broker valuations put the fleet at USD 3,619m, 25% above carrying value. Leverage remained moderate with net interest-bearing debt at USD 893.6m and a net loan-to-value ratio of 25.1%.

The board declared an interim dividend of USD 0.70 per share, about 58% of quarterly net profit, and raised 2026 TCE guidance to USD 1,150–1,450m and EBITDA to USD 800–1,100m, from prior ranges of USD 850–1,250m and USD 500–900m. Future performance will depend heavily on volatile freight markets and evolving geopolitical conditions described in the outlook.

time charter equivalent earnings (TCE) financial
"TORM generated time charter equivalent earnings (TCE) of USD 286m"
Return on Invested Capital (ROIC) financial
"For the first quarter of 2026, Return on Invested Capital amounted to 18.0%"
Return on invested capital (ROIC) measures how much profit a company generates from the money put into its business, including debt and equity. Think of it like the harvest you get from seeds you planted: higher ROIC means the company uses its resources more efficiently to grow earnings. Investors care because ROIC shows whether a business is creating value above its cost of financing and helps compare operational effectiveness across companies.
Net Asset Value (NAV) financial
"TORM’s consolidated Net Asset Value (NAV) was USD 3,036m as of 31 March 2026"
Net asset value (NAV) is the per-share value of an investment fund calculated by totaling the fund’s assets, subtracting its liabilities, and dividing the remainder by the number of outstanding shares. Think of it like a price tag on each share of a collective piggy bank: investors use NAV to see what each share is worth, to compare funds, and, for many funds, it’s the price at which shares are bought or redeemed.
Net loan-to-value (LTV) ratio financial
"Net Loan-to-value (LTV) ratio 25.1% 26.8% 29.4%"
Net loan-to-value (LTV) ratio measures how much debt is secured by an asset after accounting for agreed allowances or safeguards, divided by the asset’s current value. Think of it as the share of a house’s value that is actually at risk after subtracting safety cushions like reserves, guarantees, or anticipated selling costs; investors use it to gauge credit risk and potential loss severity if collateral falls in value.
reverse stress case financial
"In addition to the base case, TORM has developed a reverse stress case."

Exhibit 99.1


 Interim Results for the First Quarter ended 31 March 2026  TORM PLC  120 CANNON STREET  LONDON, EC4N 6AS, UNITED KINGDOM COMPANY: 09818726 
 


 TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026  10  Highlights  “TORM delivered a strong quarter supported by high freight rates, consistent execution, and our One TORM platform,” said Jacob Meldgaard, adding: “Rates rose to record levels in April, prompting an upward revision of our full-year guidance while continuing to monitor global developments. We also invested selectively in fleet renewal, including six resale vessels, reflecting our long-term view of the market.”  In the first quarter of 2026, TORM generated time charter equivalent earnings (TCE) of USD 286m (2025, same period: USD 214m). EBITDA for the Group totaled USD 201m including unrealized losses on financial instruments of USD 5m (2025, same period: USD 136m including unrealized losses on financial instruments of USD 2m), while net profit for the period amounted to USD 122m (2025, same period: USD 63m), reflecting a continued strong operational development. Freight rates entered 2026 on a firm footing and strengthened further toward the end of the quarter, with gains led by the crude tanker segment amid escalating geopolitical tensions. The conflict involving the US, Israel, and Iran, and the subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz, materially altered market conditions as the loss of Middle Eastern exports prompted a rapid shift toward replacement barrels from the US, supporting tanker demand and freight rates.  In this market, TORM achieved fleet-wide TCE rates of USD/ day 34,937 on average (2025, same period: USD/day 26,807), and available earning days increased to 8,325 (2025, same period: 8,061). Our vessel class LR2 achieved TCE rates of USD/day 41,062, the LR1 vessels achieved TCE rates of USD/ day 34,903, and the MR vessels achieved TCE rates of USD/ day 32,946.  For the first quarter of 2026, Return on Invested Capital amounted to 18.0% (2025, same period: 10.3%) reflecting the higher freight rates compared to the levels seen a year ago, and basic EPS amounted to USD 1.21 (2025, same period: USD 0.64).  Business Highlights  In the first quarter of 2026, TORM took delivery of two 2016-built LR2 vessels and one 2018-built MR vessel, now renamed TORM Helga, TORM Hedwig and TORM Fortune. Further, TORM delivered the 2008-built LR2 vessel TORM Maren to its new owner. Also, TORM entered into an agreement to purchase two 2015-built MR vessels with delivery in the second quarter of 2026. The vessels will be named TORM Dehradun and TORM Dapitan.  Further, after the end of the quarter, TORM has purchased a total of six MR resales, with the first two vessels scheduled for delivery already in the first quarter of 2027, followed by two additional deliveries in 2027 and the remaining two in 2028.  Thus, after completion of the deliveries, TORM's fleet size will increase to 103 vessels.  Based on broker valuations as of 31 March 2026, TORM’s fleet had a market value of USD 3,619m (2025, same date: USD 3,112m). Compared to broker valuations as of 31 December 2025, the market value of the fleet increased by USD 308m when adjusted for acquired and sold vessels in the first quarter of 2026. TORM’s consolidated Net Asset Value (NAV) was USD 3,036m as of 31 March 2026 (2025, same date: USD 2,511m).  Coverage  As of 07 May 2026, TORM had covered 57% of the Q2 2026 earning days at an average rate of USD/day 71,494. By vessel class, coverage stood at 64% for LR2s at USD/day 70,764, 60% for LR1s at USD/day 61,774 and 54% for MRs at USD/ day 73,485.  For the full year 2026, 42% of the earning days have been fixed at an average rate of USD/day 50,044. The remaining 58% of the earning days in 2026 - equivalent to 20,031 days - remain open and thus subject to market fluctuations. A change in freight rates of USD/day 1,000 will, all else equal, impact EBITDA by approximately USD 20m. 
 
 

Highlights

“TORM delivered a strong quarter supported by high freight rates, consistent execution, and our One TORM platform,” said Jacob Meldgaard, adding: “Rates rose to record levels in April, prompting an upward revision of our full-year guidance while continuing to monitor global developments.

Business Highlights

In the first quarter of 2026, TORM took delivery of two 2016-built LR2 vessels and one 2018-built MR vessel, now renamed TORM Helga, TORM Hedwig and TORM Fortune. Further, TORM delivered the 2008-built LR2 vessel TORM Maren to its new owner. Also, TORM entered into an agreement to purchase two 2015-built MR vessels with delivery in the second quarter of 2026. The vessels will be named TORM Dehradun and TORM Dapitan.

Further, after the end of the quarter, TORM has purchased a total of six MR resales, with the first two vessels scheduled for delivery already in the first quarter of 2027, followed by two additional deliveries in 2027 and the remaining two in 2028.

Thus, after completion of the deliveries, TORM's fleet size will increase to 103 vessels.

Based on broker valuations as of 31 March 2026, TORM’s fleet had a market value of USD 3,619m (2025, same date: USD 3,112m).

For the full year 2026, 42% of the earning days have been fixed at an average rate of USD/day 50,044.

Financial Review



TCE

The TCE rate/day increased by 30% from USD 26,807 to USD 34,937 in the first three months of 2026 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in revenue due to changed market conditions.

Revenue for the first three months of 2026 increased by

USD 73m to USD 402m compared to the same period last year (USD 329m). The primary driver behind this increase is the US-Iran conflict and subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Those events triggered severe market disruption late in the quarter, driving high volatility and freight rate escalation. For further elaboration of the market developments, refer to the “The Product Tanker Market” section on the following page.

Port expenses, bunkers, commissions, and other cost of goods sold for the first three months of 2026 were USD 115m, an increase of USD 5m compared to USD 110m in the same period last year. The change can be attributed to USD 15m in increased port expenses, increase realized and unrealized losses on derivative financial instruments regarding freight and bunkers, and increased expenses related to emission allowances combined. The increase is offset by decreased bunker expenses in the Tanker segment and other cost of goods and services sold in the Marine Engineering segment.

Assets

As of 31 March 2026, total assets were USD 3,532m (31 December 2025: USD 3,367m), an increase of USD 165m since the end of 2025. The increase is mainly driven by an increase in the carrying amount of vessels and capitalized dry docking including prepayments on vessels of USD 123m, trade receivables of USD 35m, and cash and cash equivalents incl. restricted cash of USD 32m. The increase is offset by reduced assets held for sale of USD 24m and prepayments of

USD 25m.

The carrying value of the fleet was USD 2,889m as of 31 March 2026 (31 December 2025: USD 2,792m). The increase was driven by the delivery of one secondhand MR vessel and two secondhand LR2 vessels, all purchased late 2025, and by


 

capitalized dry docking and vessel modifications for a combined total of USD 155m. The increase is offset by regular depreciation of USD 58m.

Based on broker valuations, TORM’s fleet on water had a market value of USD 3,619m as of 31 March 2026, 25% above carrying value (31 December 2025: USD 3,178m, 13% above carrying value).

TORM´s liquidity position as of 31 March 2026 was USD 655m including restricted cash of USD 3m and undrawn credit facilities of USD 458m (31 December 2025: USD 562m including restricted cash of USD 5m and undrawn credit facilities of USD 399m).

Equity

As of 31 March 2026, TORM’s equity was USD 2,273m (31 December 2025: USD 2,203m), an increase of USD 70m. The development was mainly driven by an increase in retained profit from the net profit for the period of USD 122m, offset by dividends paid of USD 71m.

Liabilities

As of 31 March 2026, total liabilities were USD 1,259m (31 December 2025: USD 1,164m). The increase was primarily driven by increased borrowings of USD 79m, of which the majority relate to the financing of newly acquired secondhand vessels.

Cash Flow Statement

Net cash flow from operating activities for the first three months of 2026 was USD 136m (2025, same period:

USD 83m). The increase was primarily driven by an increase in the net profit for the period.

Net cash flow from investing activities for the first three months of 2026 was USD -153m (2025, same period:

USD 43m). The change in cash flow from investing activities is largely driven by the investment in three new secondhand vessels compared to the same period last year where no deliveries of purchased vessels took place.


Net cash flow from financing activities for the first three months of 2026 was USD 52m (2025, same period: USD -47m). The change in cash flow compared to the same period last year is mainly driven by the financing of the three newly acquired secondhand vessels. The development is offset by a reduction in dividends paid of USD 71m in the first three months of 2026 compared to the same period last year.

Distribution

Today, TORM’s Board of Directors has approved an interim dividend for the first quarter of 2026 of USD 0.70 per share to be paid to the shareholders corresponding to an expected total dividend payment of USD 71.5m. The distribution for the quarter is equivalent to 58% of net profit and reflects the Distribution Policy. The payment date is 11 June 2026 to all shareholders on record as of 28 May 2026, and the ex-dividend date is 27 May 2026 for the shares listed on Nasdaq OMX Copenhagen and 28 May 2026 for the shares listed on Nasdaq New York.

Following a strong close to 2025, product tanker markets entered Q1 2026 with rates stabilizing at levels well above historical averages. Product tanker rates were among other factors supported by spillovers from the strong VLCC market amid fleet consolidation. The outbreak of the US/Israel-Iran conflict and the subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz triggered a further, unprecedented escalation in tanker rates.

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz immediately constrained approximately 14% of global clean petroleum product (CPP) flows and nearly 30% of crude oil movements. On the clean side, naphtha and jet fuel flows were disproportionately affected relative to diesel and gasoline. In crude markets, the loss of Persian Gulf volumes was partially mitigated through pipeline redirection to the Red Sea and increased supply from the Atlantic Basin. However, reduced crude availability at Asian refineries forced run cuts, leading to a sharp decline in clean product exports from the region.

By end-April, global CPP trade volumes had fallen by an estimated 16%, as incremental volumes from Western markets were insufficient to fully compensate for lost exports from the Middle East and Asia. More than 200 crude and product tankers (5% of the total tanker fleet affected and 3% of the product tanker fleet) remained stranded within the Persian Gulf, further tightening effective fleet availability.

Despite the contraction in traded volumes, product tanker rates remained elevated. This resilience was primarily driven by an unprecedented shift of LR2 vessels into crude trading (“dirty-ups”). By end-April, the number of LR2s trading CPP had declined by over 50 vessels compared with the start of the year, despite the delivery of 27 newbuildings. As a result, effective fleet capacity available for CPP transportation declined by an estimated 4%. This comes on top of the fleet currently strained in the Persian Gulf. In the MR segment, increased East-to-West ballasting was broadly offset by higher West-to-East cargo movements as Asian product supply tightened.


 

Market Outlook

The situation in the Strait of Hormuz remains highly fluid. The pace at which displaced crude and product volumes return to the market will depend not only on the timing of a reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, but also on the extent of damage sustained by oil production, refining assets, and broader energy infrastructure across the Persian Gulf. A sustained recovery in Asian refinery runs and clean product exports will require a stabilization of crude supply flows to the region.

Over the medium term, tanker demand is expected to be supported by the need to rebuild oil inventories drawn down during the conflict. In March, the International Energy Agency announced a collective release of 426m barrels from strategic petroleum reserves to mitigate supply disruptions related to the Iran conflict. Approximately 30% of the release consists of refined products - primarily diesel held in Europe - which is expected to support the region’s future import requirements.







TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026

 TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026  10  Financial Review  TCE  The TCE rate/day increased by 30% from USD 26,807 to USD 34,937 in the first three months of 2026 compared to the same period last year. This increase was primarily a result of an increase in revenue due to changed market conditions.  Revenue for the first three months of 2026 increased by  USD 73m to USD 402m compared to the same period last year (USD 329m). The primary driver behind this increase is the US-Iran conflict and subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Those events triggered severe market disruption late in the quarter, driving high volatility and freight rate escalation. For further elaboration of the market developments, refer to the “The Product Tanker Market” section on the following page.  Port expenses, bunkers, commissions, and other cost of goods sold for the first three months of 2026 were USD 115m, an increase of USD 5m compared to USD 110m in the same period last year. The change can be attributed to USD 15m in increased port expenses, increase realized and unrealized losses on derivative financial instruments regarding freight and bunkers, and increased expenses related to emission allowances combined. The increase is offset by decreased bunker expenses in the Tanker segment and other cost of goods and services sold in the Marine Engineering segment.  Assets  As of 31 March 2026, total assets were USD 3,532m (31 December 2025: USD 3,367m), an increase of USD 165m since the end of 2025. The increase is mainly driven by an increase in the carrying amount of vessels and capitalized dry docking including prepayments on vessels of USD 123m, trade receivables of USD 35m, and cash and cash equivalents incl. restricted cash of USD 32m. The increase is offset by reduced assets held for sale of USD 24m and prepayments of  USD 25m.  The carrying value of the fleet was USD 2,889m as of 31 March 2026 (31 December 2025: USD 2,792m). The increase was driven by the delivery of one secondhand MR vessel and two secondhand LR2 vessels, all purchased late 2025, and by  capitalized dry docking and vessel modifications for a combined total of USD 155m. The increase is offset by regular depreliveries of purchased vessels took place.  Net cash flow from financing activities for the first three months of 2026 was USD 52m (2025, same period: USD -47m). The change in cash flow compared to the same period last year is mainly driven by the financing of the three newly acquired secondhand vessels. The development is offset by a reduction in dividends paid of USD 71m in the first three months of 2026 compared to the same period last year.  Distribution  Today, TORM’s Board of Directors has approved an interim dividend for the first quarter of 2026 of USD 0.70 per share to be paid to the shareholders corresponding to an expected total dividend payment of USD 71.5m. The distribution for the quarter is equivalent to 58% of net profit and reflects the Distribution Policy. The payment date is 11 June 2026 to all shareholders on record as of 28 May 2026, and the ex-dividend date is 27 May 2026 for the shares listed on Nasdaq OMX Copenhagen and 28 May 2026 for the shares listed on Nasdaq New York.

Outlook for 2026

Financial Outlook 2026

At TORM, we develop annual guidance by tracking key performance metrics, including TCE, coverage levels, and EBITDA sensitivity to freight rate movements. Freight rates in the product tanker market - our primary earnings driver - remain highly volatile, while we expect operating costs per vessel day, and administrative expenses to stay broadly in line with prior-year levels.

Our financial outlook is primarily based on the assumptions described on the preceding pages. The most important factors affecting our TCE earnings are expected to be:


Geopolitical conflicts including the war between Russia and Ukraine, and the conflicts in the Middle East region.
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, conflicts, embargoes, political instability, weather conditions, etc.

 

We have limited 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.


Based on the earnings realized this far as well as the outlook for the remaining part of the year, TORM upgrades its full-year 2026 guidance.

For the full year 2026, TCE earnings are now expected to exceed the previous guidance and are now estimated to USD 1,150 - 1,450m (previous guidance USD 850 - 1,250m),

EBITDA for the full year 2026 is expected to be in the range of USD 800 1,100m (previous guidance USD 500 - 900m) based on the current fleet size.

TORM Fleet Development


The table shows recent developments in TORM’s operating fleet. As of 31 March 2026, TORM’s fleet comprises 95 vessels, including two under sale-and-leaseback agreements with options to buy back the vessels (financially reported as owned vessels in accordance with our accounting policies).

At TORM, maintaining a high quality and competitive fleet is a core priority. As part of our active fleet management strategy, we regularly divest vessels as they reach a certain age to ensure a stable and attractive average fleet age.

This approach not only supports operational efficiency and environmental performance but also aligns with our broader objective of maintaining high standards across our fleet.

Divestments are carefully timed and balanced with selective acquisitions of high-quality second-hand vessels, which are rapidly upgraded to match the TORM standard.

Through this disciplined process, we safeguard the long-term competitiveness of our fleet and continue to meet the evolving expectations of our customers, charterers, and stakeholders.

The forward-looking statements in this annual report 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, our future operating or financial results; changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities; inflationary pressure and central bank policies intended to combat overall inflation and rising interest rates and foreign exchange rates; general domestic and international political conditions or events, including “trade wars” and the war between Russia and Ukraine, the conflicts in the Middle East, international sanctions against Russian oil and oil products; changes in economic and competitive conditions affecting our business, including market fluctuations in charter rates and charterers’ abilities to perform under existing time charters;











changes in the supply and demand for vessels comparable to ours and the number of newbuildings under construction; the highly cyclical nature of the industry that we operate in; the loss of a large customer or significant business relationship; changes in worldwide oil production and consumption and storage; risks associated with any future vessel construction; our expectations regarding the availability of vessel acquisitions and our ability to complete acquisition transactions planned; availability of skilled crew members other employees and the related labor costs; work stoppages or other labor disruptions by our employees or the employees of other companies in related industries; effects of new products and new technology in our industry; new environmental regulations and restrictions; the impact of an interruption in or failure of our information technology and communications systems, including the impact of cyber-attacks, upon our ability to operate; potential conflicts of interest involving members of our Board of Directors and Senior Management; the failure of counterparties to fully perform their contracts with us; changes in credit risk with respect to our counterparties on contracts; adequacy of insurance coverage; our ability to obtain indemnities from customers; changes in laws, treaties or regulations; our incorporation under the laws of England and Wales and the different rights to relief that may be available compared to other countries, including the United States; government requisition of our vessels during a period of war or emergency; the arrest of our vessels by maritime claimants; any further changes in U.S. trade policy that could trigger retaliatory actions by the affected countries; the impact of the U.S. presidential and congressional election results affecting the economy, future government laws and regulations and trade policy matters, such as the imposition of tariffs and other import restrictions; potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents, climate-related incidents, adverse weather and natural disasters, environmental factors, political events, public health threats, acts by terrorists or acts of piracy on ocean-going vessels; damage to storage and receiving facilities; potential liability from future litigation and potential costs due to environmental damage and vessel collisions; and the length and number of off-hire periods and dependence on third-party managers.

In the 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.

 NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GOING CONCERN  General Information  The information for the year ended 31 December 2025 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 first quarter and three months ended 31 March 2026 is unaudited.  Significant Accounting Policies  The interim report for the period 01 January-31 March 2026 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 2026 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 and the EU in the consolidated financial statements for 2026:  Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11 (January 2026)  Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7: Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (January 2026)  Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7: Contracts Referencing Nature dependent Electricity (January 2026)  For the new standards and amendments, it is assessed that application of these effective on 01 January 2026 has not had any material impact on the consolidated financial statements in 2026. The interim report has been prepared using the same accounting policies and methods of computation as in the Annual Report 2025.  For critical estimates and judgements, please refer to the Annual Report 2025, page 162.  NOTE 1 - continued Going Concern  As of 31 March 2026, TORM’s available liquidity including undrawn and committed facilities was USD 654.5m, including a total cash position of USD 196.4m (including restricted cash of USD 3.0m).  TORM’s net interest-bearing debt was USD 893.6m, and the net loan-to-value ratio was 25.1% (Tanker segment only). Further information on TORM’s objectives and policies for managing our capital, our financial risk management objectives, and our exposure to credit and liquidity risk can be found in Note 24 to the financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report.  TORM monitors our funding position throughout the year to ensure that we have access to sufficient funds to meet the forecasted cash requirements and loan commitments, and to monitor compliance with the financial covenants in our loan facilities, details of which are available in Note 2 to the financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report.  A key element for TORM’s financial performance in the going concern period relates to the increased geopolitical risks and trade disputes. TORM’s base case assumes that these dynamics will persist. TORM monitors the general development in the geopolitical situation and potential effects on the product tanker market. In the base case, TORM has sufficient liquidity and headroom for all the covenant limits. The principal risks and uncertainties facing TORM are set out on pages 14 to 17 in the 2025 Annual Report. In addition to the base case, TORM has developed a reverse stress case. The reverse stress case covers the lowest TCE rate that only just meet the minimum liquidity covenant and the lowest vessel values that do not breach any of the facilities’ minimum-security values in the period. In the reverse stress case, with TCE rates are significantly below the lowest rolling four-quarter average observed since 2000 on each vessel class basis accompanied by a corresponding decline in vessel values, TORM maintains sufficient headroom on liquidity and covenants throughout the going concern period.  The Board of Directors has considered TORM’s cash flow forecasts and the expected compliance with TORM’s financial covenants for the period until 30 June 2027. Based on this review, the Board of Directors has a reasonable expectation that taking reasonably possible changes in trading performance and vessel valuations into account, TORM will be able to continue in operation and comply with our financial covenants for the period until 30 June 2027. Accordingly, TORM continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing our financial statements.  TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026  10 
 


NOTE 1 - ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND GOING CONCERN

General Information

The information for the year ended 31 December 2025 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 first quarter and three months ended 31 March 2026 is unaudited.

Significant Accounting Policies

The interim report for the period 01 January-31 March 2026 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 2026 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 and the EU in the consolidated financial statements for 2026:


Annual Improvements to IFRS Accounting Standards - Volume 11 (January 2026)
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7: Amendments to the Classification and Measurement of Financial Instruments (January 2026)
Amendments to IFRS 9 and IFRS 7: Contracts Referencing Nature dependent Electricity (January 2026)

For critical estimates and judgements, please refer to the Annual Report 2025, page 162.



NOTE 1 - continued Going Concern

As of 31 March 2026, TORM’s available liquidity including undrawn and committed facilities was USD 654.5m, including a total cash position of USD 196.4m (including restricted cash of USD 3.0m).

TORM’s net interest-bearing debt was USD 893.6m, and the net loan-to-value ratio was 25.1% (Tanker segment only). Further information on TORM’s objectives and policies for managing our capital, our financial risk management objectives, and our exposure to credit and liquidity risk can be found in Note 24 to the financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report.

TORM monitors our funding position throughout the year to ensure that we have access to sufficient funds to meet the forecasted cash requirements and loan commitments, and to monitor compliance with the financial covenants in our loan facilities, details of which are available in Note 2 to the financial statements in the 2025 Annual Report.

A key element for TORM’s financial performance in the going concern period relates to the increased geopolitical risks and trade disputes. TORM’s base case assumes that these dynamics will persist. TORM monitors the general development in the geopolitical situation and potential effects on the product tanker market. In the base case, TORM has sufficient liquidity and headroom for all the covenant limits. The principal risks and uncertainties facing TORM are set out on pages 14 to 17 in the 2025 Annual Report. In addition to the base case, TORM has developed a reverse stress case. The reverse stress case covers the lowest TCE rate that only just meet the minimum liquidity covenant and the lowest vessel values that do not breach any of the facilities’ minimum-security values in the period. In the reverse stress case, with TCE rates are significantly below the lowest rolling four-quarter average observed since 2000 on each vessel class basis accompanied by a corresponding decline in vessel values, TORM maintains sufficient headroom on liquidity and covenants throughout the going concern period.

The Board of Directors has considered TORM’s cash flow forecasts and the expected compliance with TORM’s financial covenants for the period until 30 June 2027. Based on this review, the Board of Directors has a reasonable expectation that taking reasonably possible changes in trading performance and vessel valuations into account, TORM will be able to continue in operation and comply with our financial covenants for the period until 30 June 2027. Accordingly, TORM continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing our 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 2025 and therefore we refer to the principles for these on pages 278-282 in the TORM plc Annual Report 2025. The following APMs relate to the Group.
Net profit excluding non-recurring items: Net profit excluding non-recurring items is net profit less non-recurring items, e.g. impairment and reversals of impairment on vessels, profit from sale of vessels, claims provisions, impacts from refinancing as well as termination of leaseback arrangements. TORM reports net profit excluding non-recurring items because we believe it provides additional meaningful information to investors regarding the operational performance excluding non-recurring fluctuations.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA: TORM defines EBITDA as earnings before financial income and expenses, depreciation, impairment, amortization and taxes.
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 selection between investment alternatives.
EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that 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.
Due to the temporary fluctuations of the fair value of freight and bunker derivatives, Management believes that an adjustment for unrealized gain/losses on freight and bunker derivatives help to increase comparability in EBITDA developments. The adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows:

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 selection between investment alternatives.  EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that 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.  Due to the temporary fluctuations of the fair value of freight and bunker derivatives, Management believes that an adjustment for unrealized gain/losses on freight and bunker derivatives help to increase comparability in EBITDA developments. The adjusted EBITDA is calculated as follows:  USDm  Q1 2026  Q1 2025  FY 2025  Reconciliation to net profit  Net profit for the period  122.4  62.9  286.0  Tax  1.6  5.4  9.2  Financial expenses  18.9  17.8  74.4  Financial income  -1.6  -3.8  -13.3  Depreciation and amortization  59.7  53.3  214.5  EBITDA  201.0  135.6  570.8  Reconciliation to EBITDA  EBITDA  201.0  135.6  570.8  Fair value adjustments on freight and bunker  derivatives  4.7  2.1  6.7  Adjusted EBITDA  205.7  137.7  577.5

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 2025 and therefore we refer to the principles for these on pages 225-229 in the TORM plc Annual Report 2025. 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.
Due to the temporary fluctuations of the fair value of freight and bunker derivatives, TORM believes that an adjustment for unrealized gain/losses on freight and bunker derivatives helps to increase comparability in TCE earning developments. Further, to be able to reconcile the TCE earnings to the TCE/day measure, adjusted TCE earnings are presented net of the fair value adjustments on freight and bunker derivatives. The TCE/day measure is calculated as the adjusted TCE earnings divided by available earning days. TCE earnings and adjusted TCE earnings are presented below:

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.

TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2026

Exhibit 99.2

COMPANY ANNOUNCEMENT
 
 




TORM plc Q1 2026 Results, Dividend Distribution, and Financial Outlook 2026
INSIDE INFORMATION
“TORM delivered a strong quarter supported by high freight rates, consistent execution, and our One TORM platform,” said Jacob Meldgaard, adding: “Rates rose to record levels in April, prompting an upward revision of our full-year guidance while continuing to monitor global developments. We also invested selectively in fleet renewal, including six resale vessels, reflecting our long-term view of the market.”

Financial Results
In the first quarter of 2026, TORM (Nasdaq: TRMD or TRMD A) generated time charter equivalent earnings (TCE) of USD 286m (2025, same period: USD 214m). EBITDA for the Group totaled USD 201m including unrealized losses on financial instruments of USD 5m (2025, same period: USD 136m including unrealized losses on financial instruments of USD 2m), while net profit for the period amounted to USD 122m (2025, same period: USD 63m), reflecting a continued strong operational development. Freight rates entered 2026 on a firm footing and strengthened further toward the end of the quarter, with gains led by the crude tanker segment amid escalating geopolitical tensions. The conflict involving the US, Israel, and Iran, and the subsequent closure of the Strait of Hormuz, materially altered market conditions as the loss of Middle Eastern exports prompted a rapid shift toward replacement barrels from the US, supporting tanker demand and freight rates.

Distribution of Dividend
TORM’s Board of Directors has today approved an interim dividend for the first quarter of 2026 of USD 0.70 per share to be paid to the shareholders corresponding to an expected total dividend payment of USD 72m and reflects the Distribution Policy. The distribution for the quarter is equivalent to 58% of net profit. The payment date is 11 June 2026 to all shareholders on record as of 28 May 2026, and the ex-dividend date is 27 May 2026 for the shares listed on Nasdaq OMX Copenhagen and 28 May 2026 for the shares listed on Nasdaq New York.
Financial Outlook 2026 - INSIDE INFORMATION
As of 07 May 2026, TORM had covered 57% of the Q2 2026 earning days at an average rate of USD/day 71,494. By vessel class, coverage stood at 64% for LR2s at USD/day 70,764, 60% for LR1s at USD/day 61,774 and 54% for MRs at USD/day 73,485.
For the full year 2026 42% of the earning days have been fixed at an average rate of USD/day 50,044. The remaining 58% of the earning days in 2026 - equivalent to 20,031 days - remain open and thus subject to market fluctuations. A change in freight rates of USD/day 1,000 will, all else equal, impact EBITDA by approximately USD 20m.
Based on the earnings realized this far as well as the outlook for the remaining part of the year, TORM upgrades its full-year guidance.
For the full year 2026, TCE earnings are now expected to exceed the previous guidance and are now estimated to be USD 1,150-1,450m (previous guidance USD 850-1,250m),
EBITDA for the full year 2026 is expected to be in the range of USD 800–1,100m (previous guidance USD 500-900m) based on the current fleet size.
