Exhibit 99.1

HIGHLIGHTS

The product tanker market reached historically low levels in the third quarter impacted by a decrease in demand growth and shorter sailing distances. I am nonetheless pleased that TORM continues to perform well in a difficult market," says Executive Director Jacob Meldgaard and continues: "we believe product tanker freight rates have bottomed out in the third quarter, and in the fourth quarter we have experienced firmer product tanker freight rates driven by increasing export activity in the US Gulf and a stronger crude tanker market. We maintain an optimistic view of the long-term prospects of the product tanker market. As preparation for the IMO 2020 sulfur directive, we are pleased to have established a joint venture with ME Production, a leading scrubber manufacturer, and Guangzhou Shipyard International that will allow us to secure availability of high-quality scrubbers at attractive prices."

RESULT		EBITDA¹ for the third quarter of 2018 was USD 14.7m (2017, same period: USD 37.0m). The loss before tax amounted to USD 24.5m (2017, same period: USD -3.9m). Cash flow from operating activities was positive at USD 18.3m in the third quarter of 2018 (2017, same period: USD 17.5m) and loss per share (EPS) was 34 cents (2017, same period: -7 cents). Return on Invested Capital² (RoIC) was -4.3% (2017, same period: 1.6%).

MARKET CONDITIONS		In the third quarter of 2018, TORM achieved TCE rates of USD/day 10,598 (2017, same period: USD/day 14,279). The product tanker market has remained soft throughout the third quarter of 2018, with MR benchmark freight rates reaching all-time historically low levels. The market was positively impacted by record high refinery runs at the start of the third quarter, but negatively impacted by the effects of decrease in year-on-year demand growth, lower sailing distances and a continued cannibalization from newbuilding crude tankers going after clean cargos on their maiden voyages before commencing transportation of dirty cargos.

VESSEL TRANSACTIONS		During the third quarter of 2018, TORM entered into agreements to sell two older vessels: the MR vessel TORM Neches (built in 2000) and the Handysize vessel TORM Ohio (built in 2001). In October 2018, TORM has entered into an agreement to sell the MR vessel TORM Clara (built in 2000). The three vessels were sold for a total consideration of USD 20m, and a total debt of USD 12m is expected to be repaid in connection with the vessel sales. The vessels are all expected to be delivered to their new owners during the fourth quarter of 2018. In July 2018, TORM redelivered the chartered LR2 vessel TORM Marie to its owner after the expiration of the charter period. As of 30 September 2018, including the three vessels for which a sale has been agreed, TORM's fleet consists of 74 owned vessels, three chartered vessels and ten vessels on order. On 15 October 2018, TORM took delivery of the final LR2 newbuilding, TORM Hilde.

VESSEL VALUES		Based on broker valuations, TORM's fleet including newbuildings had a market value of USD 1,661m as of 30 September 2018. Compared to broker valuations as of 30 June 2018, the market value of the fleet decreased by USD 14m (~1%), in line with the fleet depreciation rate.

HIGHLIGHTS – CONTINUED

SCRUBBER UPDATE		On 9 November 2018, TORM announced the establishment of a joint venture with ME Production, a leading scrubber manufacturer, and Guangzhou Shipyard International (GSI), which is part of the China State Shipbuilding Corporation group. The joint venture, ME Production China, will manufacture and install scrubbers in China and deliver them to a range of maritime industry customers for both newbuildings and retrofitted vessels. TORM holds an ownership stake of 27.5% in the new joint venture. In connection with the establishment, TORM has ordered a total of 16 scrubbers with ME Production China and signed a letter of intent for additional 18 scrubbers with the new joint venture. With these orders, TORM has committed to install scrubbers on 21 vessels and potentially up to 39 vessels or roughly half of TORM's fleet. During the third quarter of 2018, TORM has successfully conducted its first retrofit scrbber installation on the MR ice-class vessel TORM Lene, and on 15 October 2018 TORM took delivery of the first newbuilding outfitted with a scrubber, the LR2 vessel TORM Hilde. These two vessels are expected to provide valuable operational insight in advance of the remaining scrubber installations planned for 2019 and the first half of 2020.

LIQUIDITY		As of 30 September 2018, TORM's available liquidity was USD 425m consisting of USD 163m in cash and USD 262m in undrawn credit facilities. As of 30 September 2018, net interest-bearing debt³ amounted to USD 597m and TORM's net loan-to-value (LTV)⁴ ratio was 54%.

ORDER BOOK AND CAPEX		The book value of the fleet was USD 1,424m as of 30 September 2018 excluding outstanding installments on the newbuildings of USD 296m. The outstanding installments include payments for scrubbers related to these vessels. As of 30 September 2018, TORM's order book stood at ten newbuildings: one LR2, two LR1s and seven MRs. The LR2 vessel was delivered on 15 October 2018, and the LR1s and the MRs are expected to be delivered in 2019 through the first quarter of 2020.

NAV AND EQUITY		Based on broker valuations as of 30 September 2018, TORM's Net Asset Value (NAV⁵) excluding charter commitments was estimated at USD 826m. This corresponds to a NAV/share⁶ of USD 11.2 or DKK 72.0. TORM's book equity amounted to USD 859m as of 30 September 2018. This corresponds to a Book equity/share⁷ of USD 11.6 or DKK 74.5. During the third quarter of 2018, TORM has upon request from certain warrantholders cancelled 126,874 warrants. TORM now has 4,711,953 warrants outstanding.

COVERAGE		As of 30 September 2018, 22% of the remaining total earning days in 2018 were covered at an average rate of USD/day 15,164.
		As of 12 November 2018, 61% of the total earning days in the fourth quarter of 2018 were covered at USD/day 13,278.

THE PRODUCT TANKER MARKET

The product tanker market remained soft throughout the third quarter of 2018, with MR benchmark freight rates reaching all-time historically low levels. In general, freight rates were slightly higher in the eastern hemisphere than in the West.

Demand for clean petroleum products (CPP) was impacted by higher oil prices in the third quarter, with lower year-on-year growth levels than in the first half of the year. In the gasoline market, higher prices coupled with depreciated currencies in many emerging markets had a negative impact on demand in these countries. In the diesel market, recent demand growth slowed in the third quarter, reducing the growth to around zero year on year. However, this is compared to a strong baseline in 2017.

Globally, refinery runs reached record high levels throughout the summer, and consequently refinery margins have fallen to levels below the five-year average. With slower demand growth and refinery runs at record levels, global CPP trade flows slowed in the third quarter compared to the same period last year, resulting in lower ton-mile demand year on year. Additionally, product stockpiles started to build after draws earlier in the year. In particular stocks have built up especially West of the Suez Canal, where gasoline inventories are currently above the levels from one year ago both in Europe and in the USA. As diesel demand growth slowed, inventories have built slightly but are still below the five-year average level.

In the West, imports of gasoline from Europe to the US Atlantic coast were strong throughout the quarter, supported by an open price arbitrage for the majority of the quarter. However, freight markets continued to be negatively impacted by reduced imports into Brazil and West Africa. This was further aggravated by a reduction in long-haul exports from the West to the East over the summer, although this trend reversed towards the end of the quarter as the end of the summer driving season in the western hemisphere released volumes for exports.

In the East, refineries coming back from maintenance in the Middle East and India supported exports to the western markets, especially in the first half of the quarter. However, the positive effect was partly offset by reduced export volumes from especially China and Japan due to high refinery maintenance. The impact from newbuilt crude tankers cannibalizing on clean tankers remained a factor through most of the third quarter. However, the extent of crude tankers lifting clean cargos for the maiden voyage has now slowed, as freight rates for large crude tankers have increased recently.

The global product tanker fleet (above 25,000 dwt) grew by 1.0% in the third quarter of 2018 (source: TORM).

During the third quarter of 2018, TORM's product tanker fleet realized average TCE earnings of USD/day 10,598 (26% down year on year), and split per vessel class:

·	LR2 fleet at USD/day 15,420 (4% up year on year)

·	LR1 fleet at USD/day 11,485 (4% down year on year)

·	MR fleet at USD/day 10,051 (32% down year on year)

·	Handysize fleet at USD/day 6,669 (47% down year on year)

TORM's gross profit for the third quarter of 2018 was USD 27.2m.

Outlook

·	As of 30 September 2018, TORM had covered 22% of the remaining earning days in 2018 at USD/day 15,164

·	As of 12 November 2018, TORM had covered 61% of the total earning days in the fourth quarter of 2018 at USD/day 13,278.

·	As 2,637 earning days in 2018 are unfixed as of 12 November 2018, a change in freight rates of USD/day 1,000 will impact the profit before tax by USD 2.6m

Coverage data and operational data per vessel type are shown in the tables on the following two pages.

VALUE CHAIN IN OIL TRANSPORTATION

The global oil industry includes a range of activities and processes which contribute to the transformation of primary petroleum resources into usable end products for industrial and private customers.

The value chain begins with the identification and subsequent exploration of productive petroleum fields. The unrefined crude oil is transported from the production area to refinery facilities by crude oil tankers, pipelines, road and rail.

TORM is primarily involved in the transportation of refined oil products from the refineries to the end user. In addition to clean products, TORM uses some of its vessels for transportation of residual fuels from the refineries as well as crude oil directly from the production field to the refinery. These fuel types are commonly referred to as dirty petroleum products, as extensive cleaning of the vessel's cargo tanks is required before a vessel can transport clean products again. During the first nine months of 2018, 93% of TORM's turnover was generated from clean products transportation.

The One TORM integrated operating platform with in-house technical and commercial management enhances responsiveness to customers' demands and allows TORM to generate value for stakeholders as well as for the Company.

The long-term success of the Company is dependent on TORM's ability to provide safe and reliable transportation services. In addition to the items explicitly stated in the financial statements, the long-term success of the Company further builds on the intellectual property of the workforce at TORM and the relationship and cooperation with external stakeholders such as oil traders, state-owned oil companies, oil majors, financial institutions, shipyards, brokers and governmental agencies.

TORM values the relationship with its key stakeholders and aims at conducting business for the benefit of the Company's shareholders and other stakeholders.

The interaction with key stakeholders is described in the Annual Report 2017 on pages 16-18 under "Strategic Ambition and Business Model". For more information on broader value generation and TORM's Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) policy, please see pages 28-36 of the Annual Report 2017.

FINANCIAL REVIEW

INCOME STATEMENT

The gross profit for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 was USD 118.0m (2017, same period: USD 146.6m). The reduction was due to lower freight rates partially offset by lower operating expenses. Average TCE rate for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 was USD/day 12,600 compared to USD/day 14,447 in the same period in 2017. Available earning days were 20,458 compared to 20,392 in the same period in 2017.

Administrative expenses for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 were USD 35.2m (2017, same period: USD 32.3m). The increase is mainly driven by an increase in salary-related costs and weakening USD/DKK.

OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME

Other comprehensive income for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 was USD 2.8m (2017, same period: USD 4.3m), resulting in a total comprehensive income for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 being a loss of USD 30.3m (2017, same period: an income of USD 3.1m). The development in total comprehensive income is primarily driven by a decrease in net result for the period.

ASSETS

As of 30 September 2018, total assets amounted to USD 1,717.7m.

The carrying value of the fleet including prepayments was USD 1,424.2m as of 30 September 2018, excluding outstanding installments on the LR2, LR1 and MR vessels under construction of USD 296.4m. Based on broker valuations, TORM's fleet including newbuildings and resale vessels had a market value of USD 1,661.0m as of 30 September 2018.

DEBT

As of 30 September 2018, net interest-bearing debt amounted to USD 596.8m. As of 30 September 2018, TORM was in compliance with the financial covenants.

EQUITY

As of 30 September 2018, TORM's equity was USD 858.7m, and TORM held treasury shares equivalent to 0.4% of the Company's share capital.

On 23 January 2018, TORM plc finalized the USD 100m Private Placement by issuing 11,920,000 new A-shares. The related capital increase was filed with the UK Companies House on 26 January 2018. The capital increase resulted in a net increase in equity of USD 97.2m, net of issue costs.

LIQUIDITY

As of 30 September 2018, TORM's available liquidity was USD 424.8m and consisted of cash and cash equivalents of USD 163.2m and undrawn credit facilities of USD 261.6m. The undrawn credit facilities consisted of a USD 75.0m working capital facility, a USD 87.8m facility financing the MR resale vessels, a USD 28.8m facility financing the LR2 newbuilding program and a USD 70.0m financing commitment for the LR1 and MR newbuilding program. As of 30 September 2018, TORM had CAPEX commitments of USD 296.4m all related to the LR2, LR1 and MR vessels under construction.

CASH FLOW

Cash flow from operating activities for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 amounted to USD 61.4m (2017, same period: USD 82.8m). The decrease is primarily driven by lower operating result. A positive impact in the cash flow is seen from changes in bunkers, receivables and payables.

TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE NINE MONTHS ENDED 30 SEPTEMBER 2018

Cash flow from investing activities for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 was USD -135.7m (2017, same period: USD -97.6m). The change is driven by a higher newbuilding CAPEX impacted by the delivery of three LR2s and installments on the ordered three MRs and two LR1s.

Cash flow from financing activities for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 was USD 103.3m (2017, same period: USD 83.9m). The increase is driven by the capital increase of net USD 97.2m completed in January 2018 partly offset by a higher amount of net borrowing in the same period of 2017 (USD 82.7m) compared to the same period in 2018 (USD 6.1m).

RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

In connection with the USD 100m equity raise completed in January 2018, an entity affiliated with TORM's largest shareholder, OCM Njord Holdings S.à r.l. (Oaktree Capital Management), received a fee of USD 1.25m in return for fully backstopping the transaction. There have been no other related party transactions during the nine months ended 30 September 2018.

RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES

There are a number of potential risks and uncertainties which could have a material impact on the Group's performance over the remaining three months of 2018. Risks and uncertainties, along with the mitigation measures put in place to reduce risks, remain unchanged from those published in the Annual Report 2017 and are summarized below:

·	Tanker freight rates – The risk of sustained low tanker freight rates or of TORM not being able to predict and act on the development of these. Furthermore, TORM is active in the cyclical product tanker industry where earnings may also be affected by seasonality

·	Bunker price – The risk of unexpected bunker price increases not covered by corresponding freight rate increases

·	Timing of sale and purchase of vessels – The risk of TORM not selling and purchasing vessels timely relative to market developments and business requirements

For further information and detailed description of the most significant risks, please refer to Note 20 of the Annual Report 2017.

NOTE 2 – VESSELS AND CAPITALIZED DRY-DOCKING

Included in the carrying amount for "Vessels and capitalized dry-docking" are capitalized dry-docking costs in the amount of USD 59.9m (30 September 2017: USD 70.8m, 31 December 2017: USD 68.1m).

The depreciation expense for the nine months ended 30 September 2018 related to "Other plant and operating equipment" of USD 0.6m is included in the "Administrative expenses" (30 September 2017: USD 0.5m, 31 December 2017: USD 0.9m).

Impairment assessment

For determination of the vessel values, TORM has carried out an impairment indicator assessment of the most significant assumptions used in the fair value and value in use calculations for the Annual Report as of 31 December 2017 (please refer to Note 8 in the Annual Report 2017). Based on this, TORM has assessed that there are no impairment indicators noted as there were no significant changes in the assumptions to either the fair value or the value in use, and therefore TORM does not find any need to reassess the recoverable amount as of 30 September 2018.

The impairment loss of USD 1.3m relates to specific vessels which have been reclassified to assets-held-for-sale to be delivered to the buyers during Q4 2018. These vessels have been written down to their fair value less costs to sell.

NOTE 6 – POST BALANCE SHEET DATE EVENTS

On 10 October 2018, TORM delivered the Handysize tanker TORM Ohio to its new owner. In the financial statements, TORM Ohio is treated as an asset held-for-sale. The delivery results in a net loss from sale of vessels in TORM of USD 0.5m in 2018.

On 15 October 2018, TORM took delivery of the newbuilding TORM Hilde, a 114,000 dwt LR2 product tanker from Guangzhou Shipyard International.

On 31 October 2018, TORM delivered the MR tanker TORM Neches to its new owner. In the financial statements, TORM Neches is treated as an asset held-for-sale. The delivery results in a net loss from sale of vessels in TORM of USD 0.8m in 2018.

TORM holds an ownership stake of 27.5% in the new joint venture. In connection with the establishment, TORM has ordered a total of 16 scrubbers with ME Production China and signed a letter of intent for additional 18 scrubbers with the new joint venture. With these orders, TORM has committed to install scrubbers on 21 vessels and potentially up to 39 vessels or roughly half of TORM's fleet.

The interim report has been prepared using the accounting policies of TORM plc that are consistent with the accounting policies of the Annual Report 2017 and additional IFRS standards endorsed by the EU and as issued by the IASB effective for accounting periods beginning after 1 January 2018. New standards have not had any material effect on the interim report other than mentioned below. The accounting policies are described in more detail in the Annual Report 2017.

Implementation of IFRS 9

On 1 January 2018, TORM implemented IFRS 9, "Financial Instruments". The standard changes the classification and measurement of financial instruments and hedging requirements. Furthermore, IFRS 9 changes the recognition of credit losses from "incurred losses" to "expected losses". TORM has assessed the new requirement and concludes that the effect of the change is insignificant, as TORM historically has had very limited actual incurred losses on receivables. The changes in the standard regarding classification do not change the measurement of the majority of financial assets from amortized cost except for derivatives that also under IFRS 9 will be measured at fair value through profit & loss unless cash flow hedge accounting is applied.

Implementation of IFRS 15

On 1 January 2018, TORM also implemented IFRS 15, "Revenue from Contracts with Customers", which replaces IAS 11, IAS 18 and associated interpretations. We have implemented IFRS 15 with retrospective effect, however, we have elected to utilize the relief from restating comparative figures (modified retrospective method). The standard has changed the recognition pattern of revenue. The change in revenue recognition has gone from recognizing from "discharge-to-discharge" to "load-to-discharge". The effect of the implementation as of 1 January 2018 amounts to USD 0.9m, recorded as an adjustment to the opening balance of retained profit in the condensed consolidated statement of changes in equity.

Going concern

The Group monitors its funding position throughout the year to ensure that it has access to sufficient funds to meet its forecast cash requirements, including newbuildings and loan commitments, and to monitor compliance with the financial covenants in its loan facilities. As of 30 September 2018, TORM's cash position was USD 163m, TORM's debt was USD 760m excluding amortized bank fees and the net debt loan-to-value ratio was 54%. TORM performs sensitivity calculations to reflect different scenarios including, but not limited to, future freight rates and vessel valuations in order to identify risks to future liquidity and covenant compliance and to enable Management to take corrective actions, if required.

The Board of Directors has considered the Group's cash flow forecasts and the expected compliance with the Company's financial covenants for a period of not less than 12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Based on this review, the Board of Directors has a reasonable expectation that, taking into account reasonably possible changes in trading performance and vessel valuations, the Group will be able to continue in operational existence and comply with its financial covenants for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Group continues to adopt the going concern basis in preparing its financial statements.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

Throughout the interim report, several alternative performance measures (APMs) are used. The APMs used are the same as in the Annual Report, and therefore we refer to the principles for these on pages 144-149 in the TORM plc Annual Report 2017. See www.torm.com/investors.

Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) earnings: TORM defines TCE earnings, a performance measure, as revenue after port expenses, bunkers and commissions incl. freight and bunker derivatives. The Company 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. Below is presented a reconciliation from Revenue to TCE earnings:

USDm	Q3 2018	Q3 2017	Q1-Q3 2018	Q1-Q3 2017	FY 2017
Reconciliation to revenue
Revenue	140.4	155.8	466.8	485.6		657.0
Port expenses, bunkers and commissions	-69.5	-60.6	-209.0	-190.5		-259.9
TCE earnings	70.9	95.2	257.8	295.1		397.1

Gross profit: TORM defines Gross profit, a performance measure, as revenues less port expenses, bunkers and commissions, charter hire and operating expenses. The Company reports Gross profit because we believe it provides additional meaningful information to investors, as Gross profit measures the net earnings from shipping activities. Gross profit is calculated as follows:

USDm	Q3 2018	Q3 2017	Q1-Q3 2018	Q1-Q3 2017	FY 2017
Reconciliation to revenue
Revenue	140.4	155.8	466.8	485.6		657.0
Port expenses, bunkers and commissions	-69.5	-60.6	-209.0	-190.5		-259.9
Charter hire	0.4	-1.4	-2.5	-6.5		-8.5
Operating expenses	-44.1	-46.7	-137.3	-142.0		-188.4
Gross profit	27.2	47.1	118.0	146.6		200.2

Net interest-bearing debt: Net interest-bearing debt is defined as mortgage debt and bank loans (current and non-current), finance lease liabilities and amortized bank fees less cash and cash equivalents. Net interest-bearing debt depicts the net capital resources, which cause net interest expenditure and interest rate risk and which, together with equity, are used to finance our investments. As such, TORM believes that net interest-bearing debt is a relevant measure which Management uses to measure the overall development of our use of financing, other than equity. Such measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Net interest-bearing debt is calculated as follows:

USDm	30 September 2018		30 September 2017		31 December 2017
Mortgage debt and bank loans (current and non-current)		728.6		741.8		720.9
Finance lease liabilities		26.1		28.8		28.2
Amortized bank fees		5.3		4.5		4.8
Cash and cash equivalents		-163.2		-145.1		-134.2
Net interest-bearing debt		596.8		630.0		619.7

EBITDA: TORM defines EBITDA as earnings before financial income and expenses, depreciation, impairment, amortization and taxes. The computation of EBITDA refers to financial income and expenses which the Company deems to be equivalent to "interest" for purposes of presenting EBITDA. Financial expenses consist of interest on bank loans, losses on foreign exchange transactions and bank charges. Financial income consists of interest income and gains on foreign exchange transactions.

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 the Company's financing agreements. TORM believes that EBITDA assists Management and investors in evaluating TORM's operating performance by increasing comparability of the Company'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 that could be affected by various changing financing methods, capital structure and which may significantly affect profit/(loss) between periods. Including EBITDA as a measure benefits investors in selecting between investment alternatives.

EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect profit/(loss), and these measures may vary among other companies and not be directly comparable. The following table reconciles EBITDA to net profit/ (loss), the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, for the periods presented:

USDm	Q3 2018	Q3 2017	Q1-Q3 2018	Q1-Q3 2017	FY 2017

Financial income	-0.9	-1.4	-2.9	-2.4		-4.3
Depreciation	28.7	28.6	85.9	86.3		114.5
Impairment losses on tangible assets	1.3	2.6	1.3	3.6		3.6
EBITDA	14.7	37.0	81.4	116.8		157.6

Return on Invested Capital (RoIC): TORM defines RoIC as earnings before interest and tax (EBIT) less tax, divided by the average invested capital for the period. Invested capital is defined below.

RoIC expresses the returns generated on capital invested in the Group. The progression of RoIC is used by TORM to measure progress against our longer-term value creation goals outlined to investors. RoIC is calculated as follows:

USDm	Q3 2018		Q3 2017		Q1-Q3 2018		Q1-Q3 2017		FY 2017
Operating profit/(loss) (EBIT)	-15.3		5.8		-5.8		26.9			39.5

Return on Invested Capital (RoIC)	-4.3	%	1.6	%	-0.6	%	2.5	%		2.8	%

Loan-to-value (LTV): TORM defines Loan-to-value (LTV) ratio as Vessel values divided by net borrowings of the vessels.

LTV describes the net debt ratio of the vessels and is used by TORM to describe the financial situation, the liquidity risk as well as to express the future possibilities to raise new capital by new loan facilities.

Invested capital: TORM defines invested capital as the sum of intangible assets, tangible fixed assets, investments in joint ventures, bunkers, accounts receivables, assets held-for-sale (when applicable), deferred tax liability, trade payables, current tax liabilities and deferred income. Invested capital measures the net investment used to achieve our operating profit. The Company believes that invested capital is a relevant measure that Management uses to measure the overall development of the assets and liabilities generating our net profit. Such measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Invested capital is calculated as follows:

USDm	30 September 2018		30 September 2017		31 December 2017
Tangible and intangible fixed assets		1,426.8		1,404.2		1,384.8

¹⁾ Accounts receivables includes Freight receivables, Other receivables and Prepayments.

²⁾ Trade payables includes Trade payables and Other liabilities.

Net Asset Value per share (NAV/share): TORM believes that the NAV/share is a relevant measure that Management uses to measure the overall development of the assets and liabilities per share. Such measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. NAV/share is calculated using broker values of vessels and excluding charter commitments. NAV/share is calculated as follows:

USDm	30 September 2018		30 September 2017		31 December 2017
Net Asset Value per share
Total vessel values including newbuildings (broker values)		1,661.0		1,523.5		1,661.1
