Q4 TCE earnings
Driven by a strong product tanker market and an improved dry bulk market towards
the end of the year, Klaveness Combination Carriers' ("KCC" or the "Company")
TCE earnings for both the CABU segment and the CLEANBU segment will end above
the guiding range of $34,500-35,500/day and $32,000-34,000/day for the two
segments respectively.   

2024 caustic soda solution contracts
The caustic soda solution ("CSS") contract renewals are progressing as planned,
with three contracts of targeted six contracts signed for 2024. The remaining
three contracts are expected to be finalized within the first weeks of January
2024. 

The cargo volume under the six targeted contracts is in line with the 2023
actual volume and is in total expected to cover the full tanker capacity of the
CABU fleet in 2024. Approximately 40% of the cargo volume will be fixed rate,
while the remaining 60% will be index linked. The rate level for the fixed rate
contracts is at historically strong levels, but somewhat lower than the 2023
contract levels due to a weaker product tanker market over the last months of
2023 compared to the same period last year.      

Red sea situation
KCC do not currently have any vessels in the Red Sea area. The CABUs do not
trade in this area, while the CLEANBUs from time-to-time transits through the
Red Sea. KCC is monitoring the Red Sea situation closely and will continuously
evaluate the development. Unless the situation in the Red Sea improves, KCC is
unlikely to sail any of its vessels through the area. 

TCE earnings for Q4 2023 and an update on the caustic soda solution contract
portfolio for 2024 will be published in January 2024, while the Company will
present and publish its Q4 2023 report including full year 2023 financials 16
February 2024.
