Financial Performance
BW LPG Limited ("BW LPG", the "Company", OSE ticker code: "BWLPG.OL") reported a
Q4 2022 Net Profit After Tax of USD 95 million (FY 2022: USD 239 million),
yielding an annualised return on equity of 25% (FY 2022: 16%) with USD 326
million of free cash flow (FY 2022: USD 654 million). In Q4 2022, EBITDA was USD
139 million (FY 2022: USD 408 million), and earnings per share was USD 0.69 (FY
2022: USD 1.68).

Net leverage ratio remained low at 24% in Q4 2022, mainly due to solid cash
flows from operations and investing activities. Available liquidity was USD 463
million at the end of Q4 2022. On the back of another strong quarter, the Board
has declared a cash dividend of USD 0.52 per share amounting to USD 69 million.
This translates to a dividend per share of USD 1.28 and total returns of USD 172
million to shareholders in FY 2022, representing a pay-out ratio of 76% of NPAT
for FY 2022.

In line with its aim to return value to our shareholders, the Board has enhanced
the Company's dividend policy to target a quarterly pay-out ratio of 100% of
NPAT when the net leverage ratio is below 20%. As of 31 December 2022, the
Company has also purchased a total of 5.9 million common shares at an average
price of USD 5.99 per share, amounting to USD 35 million since the start of its
Share Buy-back program.

Commercial Performance
Q4 2022 VLGC freight rates averaged USD 53,300 per calendar day, or USD 55,000
per available day with 98% commercial utilisation. Time Charter Equivalent
("TCE") income was USD 186 million for Q4 2022 (FY 2022: USD 568 million),
mainly due to higher LPG spot rates and higher fleet utilisation. This also
includes a net downward impact of USD 17 million related to the effects of IFRS
15 where spot voyages that straddle the quarter-end are now accounted for on a
load to discharge basis. In addition, our India subsidiary continues to
contribute stable TCE income of USD 28 million for Q4 2022 (FY 2022: USD 93
million) mainly from fixed-rate time charters.

The incorporation of Vilma Oil's LPG trading operations into our Product
Services business was completed in November at a transaction price of
approximately USD 50 million for 85% of the company. By expanding BW Product
Services, the Company adds another layer to its business model and increases its
ability to adjust its market exposure.

In a strong second-hand market, BW LPG signed Memorandums of Agreement for the
sale of BW Odin (2009-built, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Korea), BW Austria
(2009-built, Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, Korea), and BW Thor
(2008-built, Hyundai Heavy Industries, Korea), the latter in Q1 2023, for a
total book gain of USD 42 million. As announced during BW LPG's Q3 earnings
presentation, the sale and delivery of BW Prince (2007-built, Hyundai Heavy
Industries, Korea) was concluded in October 2022.

BW LPG has exercised purchase options for BW Messina (2017-built, Daewoo
Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering Co) and BW Kyoto at attractive discounts and
with expected deliveries in Q2 and Q4 respectively. The Company is pleased to
announce the expansion of our Pool fleet, with contributions from Vitol, Exmar
and BW Product Services. BW LPG Pool fleet comprises over 30 VLGCs which is the
world's largest VLGC pool. The Company has locked in USD 27 million net profit
on the TC-in book for 2023, and has fixed approximately 84% of available fleet
days in Q1 2023 at an average rate of USD 56,000 per day.

Market Outlook
For 2023, the Company remains optimistic amid high volatility. Key underlying
drivers include strong US and steady Middle East export growth, starting up of
Propane Dehydrogenation (PDH) plants in China post-Covid, and continued shipping
inefficiencies from heavy dry-dock schedules and Panama Canal congestion.
