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.

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.

[1]Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) income - Shipping and Gross (loss)/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 Q3 2025: 151.3 million and 151.9 million (YTD Q3 2025: 151.4 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 19 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 20 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 – Q3 2025

 

Q3 2025 profit attributable to equity holders of the Company ended at US$57.1 million or an earnings per share of US$0.38.

 

TCE income – Shipping Q3 2025 concluded at US$51,280 per available day1 and US$48,730 per calendar day (total)1.

 

The Company declared a Q3 2025 cash dividend of US$0.40 per share. This dividend corresponds to 75% of the Shipping NPAT2 for the quarter. This cash dividend represents a payout ratio of 105% for the quarter, as a percentage of total profit attributable to equity holders.

 

As previously announced, in July 2025, the Group’s subsidiary, BW LPG India, secured a US$215 million Term Loan Facility to refinance its existing debt and to support the acquisition of two modern Very Large Gas Carriers (“VLGCs”), BW Chinook and BW Pampero, from BW LPG.

 

BW LPG India entered into an agreement to sell BW Lord in September 2025 with an estimated delivery in December 2025. The sale is priced at approximately US$61.0 million and is expected to generate a net book gain of approximately US$25.0 million.

 

Two ship financing facilities were voluntarily cancelled in October and November 2025 on the back of strong liquidity, which led to a repayment of US$36 million and reduction of US$216 million in available revolving credit facilities.

 

PERFORMANCE REVIEWQ3 2025 and YTD September 2025

 

Q3 2025

 

TCE income – Shipping was US$201.8 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: US$145.5 million), representing an increase of US$56.3 million from Q3 2024. The TCE income increase was primarily due to a higher LPG spot market of US$51,400 per day, a 7% increase compared to Q3 2024 of US$47,900 per day, and higher available fleet days of 3,934 in Q3 2025 (27% growth) after the completion of the Avance Gas acquisition. This was partially offset by our scheduled drydocking program, which reduced available fleet days by 168 days (Q3 2024: 17 days). The effects of IFRS 15 adjustments for spot voyages that straddled the quarter-end were recognised on a load-to-discharge basis resulted in a negative US$7.3 million in Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: positive US$6.4 million). The TCE income – Shipping continues to be well supported by the increased time charter coverage of 44% (Q3 2024: 38%) of available days at US$51,200 per day (Q3 2024: US$45,000 per day). Additionally, our India subsidiary continued to deliver stable TCE income of US$33.2 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: US$32.9 million), mainly from fixed-rate time charters.

 

Product Services achieved a realised gain of US$14.7 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: realised loss of US$14.0 million). At quarter-end, unfavourable market positions resulted in an unrealised mark-to-market loss of US$38.3 million. This contrasts with the same quarter last year, where a significant unrealised gain of US$85.7 million was booked, which contributed to a reduction in unrealised results of US$124.0 million. As a result, Product Services reported a gross loss of US$23.6 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: gross profit of US$71.7 million). After general and administrative expenses and income taxes of US$5.9 million (Q3 2024: US$13.2 million), Product Services reported a loss after tax of US$29.5 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: profit after tax of US$58.5 million).

 

Profit after tax was US$56.8 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: US$120.5 million). The decrease was primarily attributed to a reduction in operating profit of US$69.7 million, higher net finance expenses of US$8.6 million, and partially offset by lower income tax expense of US$14.6 million. The profit after tax was also impacted by higher vessel operating expense of US$11.3 million and depreciation of US$16.3 million, reflecting the full effect of the added Avance Gas fleet in Q4 2024.

 

Profit attributable to non-controlling interests was negative US$0.3 million for Q3 2025 (Q3 2024: positive US$15.8 million), mainly driven by a US$15.5 million decrease in attributable profit to non-controlling interests from BW Product Services.

 

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 18 and 19 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 17.

PERFORMANCE REVIEWQ3 2025 and YTD September 2025 (continued)

 

YTD September 2025

 

TCE income – Shipping for YTD September 2025 increased by US$32.5 million from YTD September 2024, primarily due to the higher available fleet days of 11,853 days in YTD September 2025. This was partially offset by a lower LPG spot market of US$43,100 per day, a 24% decline compared to YTD September 2024 of US$57,000 per day. Our scheduled drydocking program also reduced available fleet days by 387 days (YTD September 2024: 118 days). The IFRS 15 impact on TCE income – Shipping was insignificant for YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: positive US$32.9 million). The increased time charter coverage of 44% (YTD September 2024: 34%) supported TCE income – Shipping at available days of US$43,500 per day (YTD September 2024: US$44,100 per day). India subsidiary delivered stable TCE income of US$95.6 million for YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: US$92.9 million), mainly from fixed-rate time charters.

 

Product Services achieved a realised gain of US$52.8 million for YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: realised gain of US$34.8 million). At the same time, an unrealised mark-to-market loss of US$65.2 million was booked for the period. This contrasts with the same period last year, where a significant unrealised gain of US$94.6 million was booked, which contributed to a reduction in unrealised results of US$159.8 million. Overall, Product Services reported a gross loss of US$12.4 million for YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: gross profit of US$129.4 million), and a loss after tax of US$36.4 million for YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: profit after tax of US$95.3 million) after general and administrative expenses and income taxes of US$24.0 million (YTD September 2024: US$34.1 million).

 

Profit after tax for YTD September 2025 was US$166.8 million, down from US$355.1 million in YTD September 2024. This decrease reflects a lower operating profit of US$179.1 million and increased net finance expenses of US$30.0 million, partially offset by a lower income tax expense of US$20.6 million. The profit after tax was also impacted by higher vessel operating expense of US$30.4 million and depreciation of US$46.5 million from a larger fleet.

 

Profit attributable to non-controlling interests was US$28.7 million for YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: US$31.7 million). The decrease was driven by a US$22.2 million decrease in attributable profit to non-controlling interests from BW Product Services, offset by a US$19.2 million increase in attributable profit to non-controlling interests from BW LPG India, which was largely contributed by BW LPG India's gain of US$32.1 million from the sale of BW Cedar.

BALANCE SHEET

 

As of 30 September 2025, BW LPG controls a fleet of 52 VLGCs, including nine vessels which are owned and operated by BW LPG India. Total assets amounted to US$3,339.6 million (31 December 2024: US$3,320.4 million), of which US$2,394.0 million (31 December 2024: US$2,381.8 million) represented the carrying value of the vessels (including dry docking), and US$103.8 million (31 December 2024: US$216.3 million) represented the carrying value of right-of-use assets (vessels).

 

Cash and cash equivalents amounted to US$293.1 million as of 30 September 2025 (31 December 2024: US$279.7 million). Cash flow from operating activities generated a net cash surplus of US$389.8 million in YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: US$512.9 million), of which the net cash inflow of US$37.0 million (YTD September 2024: US$9.2 million) related to changes in working capital. Investing activities generated a cash outflow of US$90.5 million in YTD September 2025 (YTD September 2024: cash inflow of US$27.8 million), which comprised exercising the purchase options of BW Kizoku and BW Yushi, and US$31.0 million paid for drydocking activities. These payments were partially offset by proceeds of US$65.0 million from the sale of BW Cedar.

 

The YTD September 2025 net cash outflow for financing activities was US$254.8 million (YTD September 2024: US$489.4 million), driven by dividend payments of US$150.5 million, US$75.5 million in lease repayments and net principal, interest and trade financing borrowings repayments of US$16.7 million.

 

Net leverage ratio decreased from 32.7% as of 31 December 2024, to 29.7% as of 30 September 2025 mainly due to lower lease liabilities after the exercise of the purchase options for BW Kizoku and BW Yushi.

The executive management team (“EMT”) is the Group’s chief operating decision-maker. The Group identifies segments on the basis of those components of the Group that the EMT regularly reviews. 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 three-month and nine-month periods ended 30 September 2025 and 2024 is provided below.

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.

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 three-month and nine-month periods ended 30 September 2025 and 2024 is provided below.

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.

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.
