In this unaudited interim financial report, “the Company” or “BW LPG” refers to BW LPG Limited. “The Group” refers to BW LPG Limited together with its consolidated subsidiaries.

 

Matters discussed in this unaudited interim financial report 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 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 or present facts and circumstances. This unaudited interim financial report and any other written or oral statements made by us or on our behalf may include forward-looking statements, which reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial and operational performance.

 

These forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of forward-looking terminology, such as the terms “anticipates”, “assumes”, “believes”, “can”, “continue”, “could”, “estimates”, “expects”, “forecasts”, “intends”, “likely”, “may”, “might”, “plans”, “should”, “potential”, “projects”, “seek”, “will”, “would” or, in each case, their negative, or other variations or comparable terminology.

[1]Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) income - Shipping and Gross profit – Product Services reflect the Shipping and Product Services segments, respectively. TCE income – Shipping represents revenue from time charters and spot voyage charters less voyage expenses comprising primarily fuel oil, port charges and commission, and inter-segment expense.
[2]Basic and diluted EPS (earnings per share) is computed based on Q1 2026: 151.5 million and 151.8 million (Q1 2025: 151.6 million and 152.0 million) shares, respectively, the weighted average number of shares outstanding less treasury shares during the period.
[3]Adjusted free cash flow is a non-IFRS measure and is computed as net cash from operating activities minus cash outflows for additions in property, plant and equipment and additions in intangible assets, sale of assets held-for-sale and sale of vessels. See page 17 for a reconciliation of adjusted free cash flow to the nearest IFRS measure.
[4]ROE (return on equity) is computed as, with respect to a particular period, the ratio of the profit after tax for such period to the average of the shareholders’ equity, calculated as the average of the opening and closing balance for the period as presented in the consolidated balance sheet.
[5]ROCE (return on capital employed) is a non-IFRS measure and is computed as, with respect to a particular period, the ratio of the operating profit for such period to capital employed defined as the average of the total shareholders’ equity, total borrowings and total lease liabilities, calculated as the average of the opening and closing balance for such period as presented in the consolidated balance sheet. See page 18 for a reconciliation of ROCE to the nearest IFRS measure.
[6]Net leverage ratio is computed as the sum of total borrowings and total lease liabilities minus cash and cash equivalents as set out in the consolidated statement of cash flows, divided by the sum of total borrowings, total lease liabilities and total shareholders’ equity minus cash and cash equivalents as set out in the consolidated statement of cash flows.

HIGHLIGHTS AND SUBSEQUENT EVENTS – Q1 2026

 

Q1 2026 profit attributable to equity holders of the Company ended at US$164.3 million or an earnings per share of US$1.08.

 

TCE income – Shipping Q1 2026 concluded at US$55,450 per available day1 and US$51,350 per calendar day (total)1.

 

The Company declared a Q1 2026 cash dividend of US$0.67 per share. This dividend corresponds to 120% of the Shipping NPAT2 for the quarter. This cash dividend represents a payout ratio of 62% for the quarter, as a percentage of total profit attributable to equity holders.

 

On 30 May 2026, the Company signed a contract for the construction of eight 90’cbm Panamax Very Large Gas Carriers (VLGCs), for a total consideration of about US$940 million, subject to the final technical specifications. The newbuildings are expected to be delivered sequentially from the start of 2029 until the second quarter of 2030.

 

PERFORMANCE REVIEWQ1 2026

 

TCE income – Shipping was US$197.7 million for Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: US$158.7 million), representing an increase of US$39.0 million from Q1 2025. The TCE income increase was primarily due to a higher LPG spot market of US$63,700 per day, a 63% increase compared to Q1 2025 of US$39,100 per day. This was partially offset by our scheduled drydocking program, which reduced available fleet days by 279 days for Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: 81 days). IFRS 15 adjustments in Q1 2026 of positive US$0.5 million (Q1 2025: US$11.7 million), reflecting spot voyages that straddled the quarter-end, were recognised on a load-to-discharge basis. The TCE income – Shipping continues to be well supported by the increased time charter coverage of 53% (Q1 2025: 41%) of available days at US$48,200 per day (Q1 2025: US$40,700 per day). Within it, our India subsidiary continued to deliver stable TCE income of US$29.2 million for Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: US$31.7 million), mainly from fixed-rate time charters.

 

Product Services reported a gross profit of US$126.8 million for Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: gross loss of US$3.6 million). The substantially high gross profit was mainly driven by an increase of US$172.8 million in the mark-to-market valuation of unrealised positions relative to Q1 2025, from negative US$36.0 million in Q1 2025 to positive US$136.8 million in Q1 2026, which offset the decrease in realised profits by US$42.3 million, from positive US$32.3 million in Q1 2025 to negative US$10.0m in Q1 2026. After general and administrative expenses and income taxes totalling US$28.9 million (Q1 2025: US$8.8 million), Product Services reported a profit after tax of US$97.9 million in Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: loss after tax of US$12.5 million).

 

Profit attributable to non-controlling interests was positive US$23.1 million for Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: US$20.5 million). The increase was mainly driven by a US$20.9 million increase from BW Product Services, partly offset by an US$18.3 million decline from BW LPG India, reflecting a non-recurring gain of US$32.1 million on the sale of BW Cedar in Q1 2025.

 

1TCE income – Shipping per available and calendar day (total) are non-IFRS measures and are computed as TCE income – Shipping divided by available days and calendar days (total), respectively. See pages 16 and 17 for a reconciliation of TCE income – Shipping per available day and calendar day (total) to the nearest IFRS measure.

 

2Shipping NPAT, or Shipping’s Net Profit After Tax, is calculated as profit attributable to equity holders of BW LPG, minus BW LPG’s share of BW LPG Product Services Pte. Ltd.’s net profit/(loss) after tax. See page 15.

Net derivative financial instruments increased from US$4.2 million as of 31 December 2025 to US$95.0 million as of 31 March 2026 mainly due to the increase in the value BW Product Services’ US cargoes as a result of significant market volatility influenced by the US/Israel-Iran conflict.

 

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to US$273.1 million as of 31 March 2026 (31 December 2025: US$242.0 million). Cash flow from operating activities generated a net cash of US$165.5 million in Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: US$166.2 million), of which working capital outflow of US$114.4 million (Q1 2025: inflow of US$49.8 million). Investing activities showed a cash outflow of US$8.1 million in Q1 2026 (Q1 2025: US$6.1 million), including US$11.4 million paid for drydocking activities.

 

Net cash outflow for financing activities of US$206.9 million (Q1 2025: US$130.5 million) included net principal and interest repayments of US$58.7 million, dividend payments of US$86.5 million, US$21.5 million in lease repayments, and a net repayment of US$39.8 million trade finance borrowings.

 

Net leverage ratio decreased from 28.4% as of 31 December 2025, to 26.3% as of 31 March 2026 mainly due to principal repayments in Q1 2026.

The Group considers the business from each individual business segment perspective which comprises the Shipping and Product Services segments.

 

The reported measure of segment performance is gross profit, which the EMT uses to assess the performance of the operating segments. For the Shipping segment, gross profit is reflected as TCE income - Shipping. For the Product Services segment, gross profit is reflected as Gross profit – Product Services. Operating segment disclosures are consistent with the information reviewed by the Management.

APPENDIX - Non-IFRS financial measures

 

This interim financial report contains a number of non-IFRS financial measures that Management uses to monitor and analyse the performance of the Group’s business. Non-IFRS financial measures 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 measures that are not calculated in accordance with IFRS. Non-IFRS financial measures may be considered in addition to, but not as a substitute for or superior to, information presented in accordance with IFRS.

 

The Group believes that these non-IFRS financial measures, in addition to IFRS measures, provide an enhanced understanding of the Group’s results and related trends, therefore increasing transparency and clarity of the Group’s results and business.

 

There are no generally accepted accounting principles governing the calculation of these measures and the criteria upon which these measures are based can vary from company to company. The non-IFRS financial measures presented in this interim financial report may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies, have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Group’s operating results as reported under IFRS. The Group encourages investors and analysts not to rely on any single financial measure but to review the Group’s financial and non-financial information in its entirety.

 

The following non-IFRS measures are presented in this interim financial report.

 

TCE income – Shipping per calendar day (total)

 

The Group defines TCE income - Shipping per calendar day (total) as TCE income - Shipping divided by calendar days (total).

 

The Group defines calendar days (total) as the total number of days in a period during which vessels are owned or chartered-in is in its possession, including technical off-hire days and waiting days. Calendar days (total) are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenue and the amount of expense that the Group records during that period.

 

The Group defines waiting days as the number of days its vessels are unemployed for market reasons, excluding technical off-hire days. Ballast voyages, positioning voyages prior to deliveries on time charters and time spent on cleaning of tanks when vessels are switching from one cargo type to another are not considered waiting time. Waiting days per vessel are calculated as total waiting days for owned and chartered-in vessels divided by the number of owned and chartered-in vessels (not weighted by ownership share in each vessel).

 

The Group defines technical off-hire as the time lost due to off-hire days associated with major repairs, dry dockings or special or intermediate surveys. Technical off-hire per vessel is calculated as an average for owned, bareboat and chartered-in vessels (not weighted by ownership share in each vessel).

 

The Group believes TCE income - Shipping per calendar day (total) is meaningful to investors because it is a measure of how well the Company manages the fleet technically and commercially.

 

The reconciliation of TCE income - Shipping per calendar day (total) to TCE income - Shipping for the periods ended 31 March 2026 and 2025 is provided below.

 

   Q1 2026   Q1 2025 
         
TCE income – Shipping (US$’000)   197,689    158,670 
Calendar days (total)   3,850    4,094 
TCE income – Shipping per calendar day (total) (US$)   51,350    38,760

APPENDIX - Non-IFRS financial measures (continued)

 

TCE income – Shipping per available day

 

The Group defines TCE income – Shipping per available day as TCE income – Shipping divided by available days.

 

The Group defines available days as the total number of days (including waiting time) in a period during which each vessel is owned or chartered-in, net of technical off-hire days. The Group uses available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate or are capable of generating revenue.

 

The Group defines waiting days as the number of days its vessels are unemployed for market reasons, excluding technical off-hire days. Ballast voyages, positioning voyages prior to deliveries on time charters and time spent on cleaning of tanks when vessels are switching from one cargo type to another are not considered waiting time. Waiting days per vessel are calculated as total waiting days for owned and chartered-in vessels divided by the number of owned and chartered-in vessels (not weighted by ownership share in each vessel).

 

The Group defines technical off-hire as the time lost due to off-hire days associated with major repairs, dry dockings or special or intermediate surveys. Technical off-hire per vessel is calculated as an average for owned, bareboat and chartered-in vessels (not weighted by ownership share in each vessel).

 

The Group believes TCE income – Shipping per available day is meaningful to investors because it is a measure of how well the Group manages the fleet commercially.

 

The reconciliation of TCE income - Shipping per available day to TCE income - Shipping for the periods ended 31 March 2026 and 2025 is provided below.

 

   Q1 2026   Q1 2025 
         
TCE income – Shipping (US$’000)   197,689    158,670 
Available days   3,565    3,990 
TCE income – Shipping per available days (US$)   55,450    39,770 

 

Adjusted free cash flow

 

The Group defines adjusted free cash flow as net cash from operating activities minus cash outflows for additions in property, plant and equipment and additions in intangible assets, sale of assets held-for-sale and sale of vessels.

 

The Group believes adjusted free cash flow is meaningful to investors because it is the measure of the funds generated by the Group available for distribution of dividends, repayment of debt or to fund the Group’s strategic initiatives, including acquisitions. The purpose of presenting adjusted free cash flow is to indicate the ongoing cash generation within the control of the Group after taking account of the necessary cash expenditures for maintaining the operating structure of the Group (in the form of capital expenditure).

 

The reconciliation of adjusted free cash flow to net cash inflow from operating activities for the periods ended 31 March 2026 and 2025 is provided below.

APPENDIX - Non-IFRS financial measures (continued)

 

Return on capital employed (ROCE)

 

The Group defines return on capital employed (“ROCE”) as, with respect to a particular financial period, the ratio of the operating profit for such period to capital employed defined as the average of the total shareholders’ equity, total borrowings and total lease liabilities, calculated as the average of the opening and closing balance for such period as presented in the consolidated balance sheet.

 

The Group believes ROCE is meaningful to investors because it measures the Group’s financial efficiency and its ability to create future growth in value.

 

The reconciliation of ROCE to operating profit for the periods ended 31 March 2026 and 2025 is provided below.

Rounding of figures

 

Certain financial information presented in tables in this interim financial report has been rounded to the nearest whole number or the nearest decimal place. Therefore, the sum of the numbers in a column may not conform exactly to the total figure given for that column. In addition, certain percentages presented in the tables in this interim financial report reflect calculations based upon the underlying information prior to rounding, and, accordingly, may not conform exactly to the percentages that would be derived if the relevant calculations were based upon the rounded numbers.
