•Issuance of 8 million common shares in a U.S. public offering subsequent to quarter end, raising $100 million gross proceeds
Ole B. Hjertaker, CEO of SFL Management AS, said in a comment:
«We are pleased to execute on our growth strategy, and have added more than $2 billion to our charter backlog this year. This is a combination of vessel acquisitions and charter extensions on existing vessels, and the charter backlog now stands at nearly $5 billion.
Over the last decade, we have built up a high quality operational platform, which has enabled us to secure repeat transactions with our key customers. At the same time, we have continued to diversify our asset mix and expanding our customer base. This has enabled us to refine our business model from being a financing provider to facilitate maritime infrastructure for logistics companies.
The recently announced newbuild deal for five large container vessels marks another milestone investment for SFL. With these vessels delivered, we will have 11 LNG dual-fuel vessels, which demonstrates our commitment to continue expanding our investment focus to assets with a lower carbon footprint whilst ensuring significant visibility through ten year firm charters.»
1 Charter hire represents the amounts billable in the period by the Company and its associates for chartering out vessels and rigs. This is mainly the contracted daily rate multiplied by the number of chargeable days plus any additional billable income, including profit share. Long term charter hire relates to contracts undertaken for a period greater than one year. Short term charter hire relates to contracts undertaken for a period less than one year, including voyage charters.
2 ‘Adjusted EBITDA’ is a non-U.S. GAAP measure. It represents cash receipts from operating activities before net interest and capital payments.
Quarterly Dividend
The Board of Directors has declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per share. The dividend will be paid on or around September 27. The record date and ex-dividend date on the New York Stock Exchange will be September 11, 2024.
Results for the Quarter ended June 30, 2024
The Company reported total U.S. GAAP operating revenues on a consolidated basis of approximately $190.9 million in the second quarter of 2024, compared to $229.1 million in the previous quarter. This figure is lower than the cash received as it excludes approximately $9.7 million of charter hire which is not classified as operating revenues pursuant to U.S. GAAP. This comprises of ‘repayment of investment in sales-type leases’ and gross charter hire from entities classified as ‘investment in associates’ for accounting purposes. The revenues also exclude mobilization fees received in connection with the transit of the drilling rig Hercules to Canada during the quarter.
The net result in the second quarter was also impacted by non-recurring or non-cash items, including net negative mark-to-market effects from swaps of $0.3 million, positive mark-to-market effects from equity investments of $0.2 million, loss from redemption and buyback of bonds of $0.4 million and an increase of $0.1 million in credit loss provisions.
Reported net income pursuant to U.S. GAAP for the quarter was $20.6 million, or $0.16 per share.
Business Update
As of June 30, 2024, and adjusted for subsequent transactions, the estimated fixed rate charter backlog3 from the Company’s fleet of 81 wholly or partly owned vessels and newbuildings under construction was approximately $4.9 billion with a weighted remaining charter term of 6.7 years.
Some of the charters include purchase options which, if exercised, may reduce the fixed rate charter backlog and the average remaining charter term, but will increase capital available for new investments. Additionally, several charters include profit sharing features that may improve SFL’s operating results.
The majority of our vessels are employed on time charter contracts where SFL is responsible for technical, operational, and commercial management. In addition, some vessels are employed on bareboat charters where the Company’s customers are responsible for these services.
Container
SFL has a container fleet of 39 vessels, including five vessels on order. The container fleet generated approximately $89.8 million of charter hire in the quarter, including profit share from fuel savings.
The Company has recently agreed new five year charters for three 10,600 teu vessels and four 8,700 teu vessels with Maersk, adding approximately $485 million in backlog.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company has agreed to build five 16,800 teu container vessels with scheduled delivery in 2028 at an aggregate construction cost of approximately $1 billion. The vessels will have LNG dual-fuel propulsion and the latest features in fuel efficiency and cargo intake optimization.
3 Fixed rate backlog as of June 30, 2024 includes fully owned vessels, rigs and 100% of four partially owned 19,000 teu container vessels, which SFL also manages. It also includes subsequent transactions. The backlog excludes charterers’ extension options and purchase options (if applicable).
Upon delivery the vessels will commence minimum ten year time charters to a leading liner company, adding approximately $1.2 billion to our charter backlog. There will be an option to extend the charters for another two years, and purchase options at the end of year 10 and 12, including a profit share feature.
Car carrier
SFL has a car carrier fleet of seven vessels. The car carrier fleet generated approximately $26.3 million of charter hire in the quarter, including profit share from fuel savings.
Following the delivery of our newbuild LNG dual-fuel car carriers Odin Highway and Thor Highway during the first quarter, we now have full cash flow effect from all of our seven car carriers.
Tanker
SFL has a fleet of 18 crude oil, product, and chemical tankers, of which two were under construction at quarter end and two were agreed to be acquired. The vessels generated approximately $30 million in charter hire during the quarter.
During the quarter the Company took delivery of the newbuild LR2 product tanker SFL Tucana with a five year time charter to a world leading energy and commodities company. The Company expects to take delivery of the two remaining newbuilds later in August and October, respectively.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company took delivery of the LNG dual-fuel 33,000 dwt chemical carrier SFL Aruba, with another vessel expected to be delivered later in August. Upon delivery the vessels will be employed to affiliates of Stolt Tankers. One vessel will be on a fixed rate time charter and one vessel will be employed in a pool with similar sized vessels serving a portfolio of industrial freight volume contracts.
Dry Bulk
The Company has 15 dry bulk carriers of which eight were employed on long term charters in the quarter. SFL generated approximately $23.4 million in gross charter hire from the dry bulk vessels, including profit share generated from the eight capesize vessels on charter to Golden Ocean.
Seven dry bulk vessels, comprising of five supramax and two kamsarmax bulkers, were employed in the spot and short term charter market in the quarter and earned approximately $8.2 million in net charter hire.
Energy
SFL owns two harsh environment drilling rigs, the large jack-up rig Linus and the ultra-deepwater semi-submersible rig Hercules. During the second quarter, the rigs generated approximately $29.3 million in contract revenues, compared to approximately $66.5 million in the first quarter.
Linus is under a long term contract with ConocoPhillips in Norway until 2028. During the quarter, revenues from the rig were $10.0 million compared to $19.6 million in the previous quarter, as the rig underwent its ten-year special survey. Due to an additional repair scope during the survey, the final net cost is estimated to be approximately $40 million and will be capitalized and amortized over the next 5 years. The rig was back on contract in late July, approximately five weeks later than originally scheduled.
In the second quarter, Hercules finalized the contract with Galp Energia in Namibia and then spent approximately half of the quarter in mobilization mode, recording approximately $19.4 million of revenues, compared to $46.9 million in the first quarter. The rig commenced the contract with Equinor in Canada in mid July. Under US GAAP, mobilization fees and costs are deferred and amortized over the course of the contract. SFL has accordingly recorded lower income and cost on Hercules in the second quarter, and most of the mobilization fee and cost will be added in the third quarter.
Financing and Capital Expenditure
As of June 30, 2024, SFL carried approximately $186 million of cash and cash equivalents on its balance sheet. The Company also had unencumbered vessels and marketable securities with a combined market value of more than $180 million.
During the quarter, the Company concluded a $37 million JOLCO financing arrangement for the previously debt free container vessel Maersk Phuket at very attractive terms and with maturity matching the long term time charter agreement on the vessel.
In March and April, the Company entered into agreements to acquire a total of five new vessels at combined acquisition costs of approximately $344 million. The first vessel was delivered in June, and was debt free at quarter end. The remaining vessels are scheduled to be delivered during the third and fourth quarter, and the Company has secured approximately $244 million in senior bank financing at attractive terms for the five vessels. SFL has also secured committed refinancings for a combined amount of approximately $700 million, effectively covering the secured debt financings coming to maturity the next twelve months.
Subsequent to quarter end, the Company entered into agreements to build five 16,800 teu container vessels with scheduled delivery in 2028 at an aggregate construction cost of approximately $1 billion. The vessels are expected to be funded by a combination of cash at hand and conventional pre- and post-delivery vessel financing.
Corporate and other matters
In May, SFL issued 35,000 new common shares against the payment of the strike price, following the exercise of employee options.
In July, the Company issued 8,000,000 new shares of common stock at an offering price of $12.50 per share in a US public offering. The net proceeds of the offering are expected to be used for general corporate purposes including but not limited to vessel acquisitions.
Strategy and Outlook
SFL’s business model is to own and operate modern maritime assets in combination with long term charters to high quality companies in multiple end markets. Owning a diversified portfolio of vessels on long term charters provide high earnings visibility, lower residual value risk and lower concentration risk to an individual shipping market or specific customer. It further enables the Company to continuously reinvest in new assets and pay attractive dividends.
In parallel with acquiring new assets, the Company is also continuously focusing on reducing our carbon footprint. Following our most recent acquisitions, we will have 11 LNG dual-fuel vessels on the water and under construction, in addition to improving operational efficiency in our existing fleet. This is illustrated by ongoing upgrades to several of our large container vessels, where a combination of various hull and propeller modifications and cargo intake upgrades is expected to reduce fuel consumption per transported container by nearly 20%.
Further, we estimate that newbuild yard prices for standard vessels have increased by 30-40% the last few years due to inflationary pressure in international commodity prices and labor markets. This, combined with increased focus on premium vessel operations and fuel efficiency, could have profound implications for future shipping rates and the value of the vessels after the existing charter periods. The Board believes that owning a fleet of modern high quality maritime assets and continuing our efforts to optimize the vessels’ performance is key to capture this value for our shareholders.
Accounting Items
Under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), long term lease financing arrangements for some of the Company’s container vessels require the Company to report seven of these vessels as ‘Vessels and equipment under finance lease, net’ with the corresponding lease debt reported as ‘finance lease liability’, short term.
Additionally, another seven container vessels were reported as ‘Investment in sales-type leases’ in the Company’s consolidated accounts at quarter end.
Under U.S. GAAP, the partly owned affiliates owning four container vessels were accounted for as ‘investment in associates’ applying the equity method. As a result of the accounting treatment, operating revenues, operating expenses and net interest expenses in these affiliates were not included in SFL’s consolidated income statement. Instead, the net contribution from these affiliates were recognized as a combination of ‘Interest income from associates’ and ‘Results in associates’.
In SFL’s consolidated balance sheet, the total investment the Company has in assets held in such equity method investees is a combination of ‘Investment in associates’ and ‘Amount due from related parties – Long term’ as a substantial part of the investments initially undertaken in these associated companies were funded by intercompany loans provided by SFL.
In accordance with the Expected Credit Loss model for assets classified as financial assets under U.S. GAAP, a calculation of a credit loss provision is carried out each quarter on SFL’s direct financing lease receivables, amongst other assets, based on historical experience, current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts, and recorded on the balance sheet with the corresponding change in the provision being recorded on the income statement. At the end of the quarter, the Company and affiliates accounted for as associates, carried a total credit loss provision of approximately $3.3 million.
Revenue and costs associated with drilling contracts are recorded in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which specifies that mobilization and demobilization fees (if applicable) and associated mobilization costs are to be recorded over the days spent drilling during the contracts.
Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release the Company present additional information and measures in a way it believes will be most meaningful and useful to investors, analysts and others who use the Company’s financial information to evaluate its current and expected future cash flows. Some of the measurements the Company use are considered non-U.S. GAAP financial measures under SEC rules and regulations. In this release, SFL presents Adjusted EBITDA which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure as defined in SEC Regulation G. The Company believes that this non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, which may be defined and calculated differently by other companies, better explains and enhances the understanding of its business. However, this measure should not be viewed as a substitute for measures determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
Adjusted EBITDA is a cash measure for the Company representing the net cash received from operating activities before net interest and capital payments. It is the equivalent of charter hires billable less cash operating expenses. See Appendix 1.
Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements
This press release may contain forward looking statements. These statements are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including SFL management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company’s records and other data available from third parties. Although SFL believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond its control, SFL cannot give assurance that it will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or intentions.
Important factors that, in the Company’s view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward looking statements include the strength of world economies, fluctuations in currencies and interest rates, general market conditions in the seaborne transportation industry, which is cyclical and volatile, including fluctuations in charter hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand in the markets in which the Company operates, including shifts in consumer demand from oil towards other energy sources or changes to trade patterns for refined oil products, changes in market demand in countries which import commodities and finished goods and changes in the amount and location of the production of those commodities and finished goods, technological innovation in the sectors in which we operate and quality and efficiency requirements from customers, increased inspection procedures and more restrictive import and export controls, changes in the Company’s operating expenses, including bunker prices, dry docking and insurance costs, performance of the Company’s charterers and other counterparties with whom the Company deals, the impact of any restructuring of the counterparties with whom the Company deals, timely delivery of vessels under construction within the contracted price, governmental laws and regulations, including environmental regulations, that add to our costs or the costs of our customers, potential liability from pending or future litigation, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents, political instability, terrorist attacks, piracy or international hostilities, the length and severity of the ongoing coronavirus outbreak and governmental responses thereto and the impact on the demand for commercial seaborne transportation, drilling rigs and the condition of the financial markets, and other important factors described from time to time in the reports filed by the Company with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. SFL disclaims any intention or obligation to update or revise any forward looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
