• Strong commercial performance
  • Conditional Letter of Intent (LOI) for Safe Boreas signed in May
  • LOI for Safe Caledonia signed in July
  • Discussing Safe Zephyrus contract extension with Petrobras

Q2 and first half financials

• Revenues of USD 34.2 million (USD 21.0 million) for Q2 and USD 68.2 million (USD 35.3 million) for H1
• Liquidity of USD 65.9 million at 30 June
• Closely monitoring compliance with the minimum liquidity covenant into 2025
• Investigating potential measures to strengthen liquidity and balance sheet

Market and outlook

• Improving Brazil market with rising day rates and durations on the back of increased demand
• Further tenders and additional accommodation demand expected in Brazil going forward
• North Sea operators planning future campaigns with continued bidding for 2025 and initial discussions regarding 2026
• Expect higher utilisation and earnings growth for the coming years

Terje Askvig, the CEO of Prosafe, says, “Prosafe has successfully increased the backlog by securing work for both Safe Boreas and Safe Caledonia on good terms with significant pre-funding. This reflects a tightening accommodation market, which combined with continued high operational efficiency, positions Prosafe for future growth and increased earnings. Longer-term, the accommodation market continues to improve, with good visibility of supply and expected growth in demand led by Brazil. This is driving utilisation back to historically favourable levels. Prosafe is well positioned to capitalise on this trend, building on our 30 percent market share in Brazil.”
