Adjusted EBITDA for the third quarter of 2025 was $57.7 million. Net profit for the quarter was $44.8 million, equating to $0.28 per basic share. After adjusting for the $15.7 million gain on the
sale of DHT Peony, and the non-cash fair value loss related to interest rate derivatives of $0.4 million, the Company had ordinary net income for the quarter of $29.5 million, equating to $0.18 per basic share.
|
| • |
As announced in April, the Company entered into an agreement to sell DHT Lotus and DHT Peony, both built in 2011, for a combined price of $103.0 million. DHT Lotus was delivered to its new owner in the second quarter of 2025. DHT Peony

The VLCC market is demonstrating significant strength driven by growing demand for seaborne transportation of crude oil in combination with the increasingly
favourable structure of the fleet. VLCCs, the work horse of the crude oil transportation market, are regaining their market share through its most competitive freight offering. Geopolitics, trade and tariff dynamics, sanctions, and conflicts
are adding to the picture creating disruptions. The global fleet is becoming segmented thereby reducing its efficiency and productivity.
OPEC’s decision to reduce spare capacities by reversing production cuts and bringing more crude oil to the market seems to be well absorbed, in part by
Chinese demand for both consumption and stockpiling. Research suggests Chinese stockpiling to not only be short term and opportunistic, but a longer-term need to fill its increased storage capacity and meet defined requirements for strategic
storage. Further, it suggests a need to boost its oil security with concerns of interruption in supply from sanctions and political conflicts playing a part. Lastly, a diversification in foreign reserves by buying oil and gold.
Several of our customers are expanding their footprints and are presenting opportunities with strong demand for our services and more ships. We are grateful for
this encouraging support which leaves us highly constructive on our franchise and future.
We have what we believe to be a resilient strategy with a focus on solid customer relations offering safe and reliable services, maintaining a competitive cost
structure with robust break-even levels, a strong balance sheet, and a clear capital allocation policy. The whole DHT team continues to work hard and operate with leading governance standards and a high level of integrity.

As of September 30, 2025, DHT had a fleet of 21 VLCCs, with a total dwt of 6,521,196. For more details on the fleet, please refer to

RISK FACTOR UPDATE
Political and economic decisions globally, including the effects of tariffs and other trade measures, could adversely affect our business,
results of operations and financial condition.
Our vessels are trading globally, and the operation of our vessels is therefore exposed to political and economic risks across multiple jurisdictions. Trade tensions between the
U.S. and China, in particular, have escalated in recent periods. In early 2025, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative (“USTR”) determined to impose additional port fees targeting China’s maritime, logistics and shipbuilding sectors. The
U.S. port fees went into effect on October 14, 2025, and were structured to impact certain Chinese-linked vessels that call at U.S. ports. We do not have any Chinese built or flagged vessels and we do not believe that any of our vessels are
subject to the U.S. port fees.
In response to the U.S. port fees, China’s Ministry of Transport announced on October 10, 2025 parallel Chinese port fees on vessels that call at Chinese ports and are deemed to
have a U.S. nexus, including vessels that are owned, operated or controlled by U.S. persons and vessels associated with enterprises in which U.S. persons directly or indirectly hold 25% or more of equity, voting rights or board seats. The
Chinese port fees went into effect on October 14, 2025.
Although, based on information currently available, we do not believe that our vessels are subject to the Chinese port fees, the scope, interpretation and enforcement of these
measures remain uncertain and are subject to change without notice. For example, the Chinese port fee regime contemplates a 25% U.S. ownership or control threshold, but the authorities have not provided definitive guidance on how “ownership,”
“control” or “U.S. persons” will be assessed, whether aggregate U.S. holdings across multiple investors will be combined, or what evidentiary showing will be required. As a U.S.-listed, widely held company, we do not have complete, real time
visibility into the nationality or ultimate beneficial ownership of all of our public shareholders, including shares held in street name, through custodians, exchange traded funds or other nominees. We may be unable to demonstrate below-threshold
U.S. ownership to the satisfaction of Chinese authorities, which could subject our vessels to the port fees or to delays or added expenses even if we believe the threshold is not met. If our vessels call on Chinese ports and we are unable to pass
through these fees and expenses under our existing charter contracts, these additional operating costs could adversely affect our results of operations, financial condition and cash flows.
Further, these new measures may disrupt trade flows and chartering preferences, advantaging vessels perceived as non‑covered and disadvantaging vessels with any potential nexus to
the U.S., regardless of actual ownership percentages. Market uncertainty may reduce the pool of charterers willing to employ our vessels on China related trades, increase competition for alternative routes and degrade time charter equivalent
performance.
3
The ultimate impact that these trade measures will have will depend on how they are interpreted and enforced in practice, the duration and magnitude of the fees and our ability to
mitigate exposure through contractual pass throughs and other actions. Recent trade discussions between U.S. and Chinese officials introduced the possibility of a framework whereby the port fees could be reduced or eliminated, but there is no
certainty whether the framework will be enacted or what the outcome of the ongoing negotiations will be. Accordingly, the overall impact of these trade measures remains highly uncertain at this time.

THIRD QUARTER 2025 FINANCIALS
The Company reported shipping revenues for the third quarter of 2025 of $107.2 million compared to shipping revenues of $141.1 million in the
third quarter of 2024. The decrease from the 2024 period to the 2025 period includes $18.9 million attributable to lower time charter equivalent rates and $15.1
million attributable to a decrease in total revenue days resulting from a smaller fleet size.
Other revenues for the third quarter of 2025 were $0.2 million compared to $1.0 million in the third quarter of 2024 and relate to technical management services
provided. The decrease is due to a reduction in the fleet size for which the Company provides third-party technical management services.
Other income for the third quarter of 2025 was $1.0 million which related to the distribution of equity received from The Norwegian Shipowner’s Mutual War Risk
Insurance Association.
The Company recorded a gain of $15.7 million in the third quarter of 2025 related to the sale of DHT Peony. There was no gain on sale of vessels in the third
quarter of 2024.
Voyage expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $28.0 million, compared to voyage expenses of $48.5 million in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was
primarily due to fewer vessels operating in the spot market during the quarter, which led to a reduction in voyage expenses. Specifically, bunker expenses decreased by $18.7 million, port expenses by $1.3 million, broker commission by $0.3
million, and other voyage-related costs by $0.1 million. Voyage expenses will generally vary depending on the actual trading patterns during a quarter.
Vessel operating expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $18.4 million compared to $19.0 million in the third quarter of 2024.
The decrease was mainly related to a reduction in operating days due to less vessels in the fleet.
Depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of capitalized survey expenses, was $26.0 million for the third quarter of 2025, compared to $28.1 million
in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was due to a decrease in vessel depreciation of $1.4 million and a decrease in depreciation of drydocking and exhaust gas cleaning systems of $0.7 million, due to fewer vessels in the fleet.
General and administrative (“G&A”) expense for the third quarter of 2025 was $4.1 million, consisting of $3.4 million cash and $0.7 million non-cash charges, compared to $4.2
million in the third quarter of 2024, consisting of $3.2 million cash and $1.0 million non-cash charges. Non-cash G&A expense includes accrual for social security tax.
Net financial expenses for the third quarter of 2025 were $2.5 million compared to $7.0 million in the third quarter of 2024. The decrease was
mainly due to decreased interest expense of $4.7 million, partially offset by a non-cash loss of $0.4 million related to interest rate derivatives and a $0.1 million decrease in interest income, due to a decline in interest rates.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company had a net profit in the third quarter of 2025 of $44.8 million, or earnings of $0.28 per basic share and $0.28 per
diluted share, compared to a net profit in the third quarter of 2024 of $35.2 million, or earnings of $0.22 per basic share and $0.22 per diluted share. The increase from the third quarter of 2024 to the third quarter of 2025 was mainly due to a
$15.7 million gain on the sale of DHT Peony, which contributed to an overall $5.2 million increase in operating income, along with a $4.5 million decrease in net financial expenses.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the third quarter of 2025 was $60.9 million compared to $80.1 million for the third quarter of 2024. The decrease
was due to a $17.9 million decrease in non-cash items included in net profit, and a $11.0 million change in operating assets and liabilities, partially offset by a net profit of $44.8 million in the third quarter of 2025 compared to a net profit
of $35.2 million in the third quarter of 2024.
Net cash provided by investing activities was $11.5 million in the third quarter of 2025 and was mainly related to proceeds from the sale of DHT Peony of $50.1 million, partially
offset by $26.2 million related to investment in vessels under construction and $12.3 million related to investment in vessels. Net cash used in investing activities was $27.9 million in the third quarter of 2024, comprised of $25.8 million
related to investment in vessels under construction and $2.0 million related to investment in vessels.

NINE MONTHS 2025 FINANCIALS
The Company reported shipping revenues for the first three quarters of 2025 of $353.3 million compared to $437.1 million in the first three quarters of 2024.
The decrease from the 2024 period to the 2025 period includes $59.3 million attributable to lower time charter equivalent rates and $24.5 million attributable to a decrease in total revenue days resulting from a smaller fleet size.
Other revenues for the first three quarters of 2025 were $1.0 million compared to $3.3 million in the first three quarters of 2024 and relate to technical
management services provided. The decrease is due to a reduction in the fleet size for which the Company provides third-party technical management services.
Other income for the first three quarters of 2025 was $1.0 million which related to the distribution of equity received from The Norwegian Shipowner’s Mutual
War Risk Insurance Association.
The Company recorded a gain of $52.9 million in the first three quarters of 2025 related to the sale of DHT Scandinavia, DHT Lotus and DHT Peony. There was no
gain on sale of vessels in the first three quarters of 2024.
Voyage expenses for the first three quarters of 2025 were $102.0 million compared to voyage expenses of $134.4 million in the first three quarters of 2024.
The decrease was primarily due to fewer vessels operating in the spot market during the quarter, which led to a reduction in voyage expenses. Specifically, bunker expenses decreased by $30.6 million, port expenses by $1.3 million and broker
commission by $1.1 million, partially offset by an increase in other voyage-related costs of $0.6 million. Voyage expenses will generally vary depending on the actual trading patterns during a period.
Vessel operating expenses for the first three quarters of 2025 were $55.9 million compared to $58.6 million in the first three quarters of 2024. The decrease
was mainly related to a reduction in operating days due to less vessels in the fleet.
Depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of capitalized survey expenses, was $79.4 million for the first three quarters of 2025, compared to
$84.3 million in the first three quarters of 2024. The decrease was due to a decrease in vessel depreciation of $2.6 million and a decrease in depreciation of drydocking and exhaust gas cleaning systems of $2.2 million, due to fewer vessels in
the fleet.
G&A for the first three quarters of 2025 was $14.3 million, consisting of $10.6 million cash and $3.7 million non-cash charge, compared to $13.4 million, consisting of $10.5
million cash and $2.9 million non-cash charge for the first three quarters of 2024. The increase in non-cash G&A expense from the first three quarters of 2024 to the first three quarters of 2025 resulted from shares vested in the first
three quarters of 2025. Non-cash G&A expense includes accrual for social security tax.
6
Net financial expenses for the first three quarters of 2025 were $11.5 million, compared to $22.6 million in the first three quarters of 2024. The decrease was mainly due to decreased interest expense of $12.1 million, partially offset by a $0.5 million decrease in interest income, due to a decline in interest rates, and a non-cash loss of $0.4 million related to interest
rate derivatives.
As a result of the foregoing, the Company had net profit for the first three quarters of 2025 of $144.9 million, or income of $0.90 per basic share and $0.90
per diluted share compared to net profit of $126.7 million, or income of $0.78 per basic share and $0.78 per diluted share in the first three quarters of 2024. The increase from the first three quarters of 2024 to the first three quarters of
2025 was mainly due to a $52.9 million gain on the sale of DHT Scandinavia, DHT Lotus and DHT Peony, which contributed to an overall $6.9 million increase in operating income, along with a $11.1 million decrease in net financial expenses.
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first three quarters of 2025 was $203.7 million compared to $232.9 million for the first three quarters of 2024. The decrease was due to a $56.4 million decrease in non-cash items included in net profit,

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
The Company assesses the financial performance of its business using a variety of measures. Certain of these measures are termed “non-GAAP measures” because they 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 financial measures that are not calculated in accordance with IFRS.
These non-GAAP measures include “Adjusted Net Revenue”, “Adjusted EBITDA” and “Adjusted spot time charter equivalent per day”. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful supplemental information for its investors and, when
considered together with the Company’s IFRS financial measures and the reconciliation to the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, provide a more complete understanding of the factors and trends affecting the Company’s operations. In
addition, DHT’s management measures the financial performance of the Company, in part, by using these non-GAAP measures, along with other performance metrics. The Company does not regard these non-GAAP measures as a substitute for, or as
superior to, the equivalent measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS. Additionally, these non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies and should not be considered in
isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s operating results as reported under IFRS.

* Per revenue days. Revenue days are the aggregate number of calendar days in the period in which the vessels are owned by the Company or
chartered by the Company less days on which a vessel is off hire.
** For vessels operating on spot charters, voyage revenues are calculated on a discharge-to-discharge basis. Under IFRS 15, spot charter voyage
revenues are calculated on a load-to-discharge basis. IFRS 15 impact refers to the timing difference between discharge-to-discharge and load-to-discharge basis.

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on
October 29, 2025, and authorized for issue on October 29, 2025.
Note 2 – General accounting principles
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all
information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with DHT’s audited consolidated financial statements included in its Annual Report on Form 20-F for 2024. The interim results are not
necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year or for any future periods.
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”).
The interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared
on a historical cost basis. The accounting policies applied in these condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those presented in the 2024 audited consolidated financial statements.
The Company uses interest rate swaps to convert part of the interest-bearing debt from floating to fixed rate. Derivatives are initially recognized at fair
value at the date a derivative contract is entered into and are subsequently re-measured to their fair value at each reporting date. Any resulting gain or loss is recognized in profit or loss immediately. The interest rate swaps do not
qualify for hedge accounting.
These interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Interest rate swaps
Derivatives are classified and measured at fair value in the statement of financial
position. Fair value measurement is based on Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy as defined in IFRS 13 Fair Value Measurement. Such measurement is based on techniques for which all inputs that have a significant effect on the recorded fair value are
observable. Future cash flows are estimated based on forward interest rates (from observable yield curves at the end of the reporting period) and contract interest rates, discounted at a rate that reflects the credit risk of
various counterparties.
As of September 30, 2025, the Company has eight amortizing interest rate swaps totaling $200.6 million
with maturity in the fourth quarter of 2028. The average fixed interest rate is 3.32 %. As of September 30, 2025, the fair value of
the derivative financial liability related to the swaps amounted to $0.4 million.

Note 5 – Vessels
A vessel’s recoverable
amount is the higher of the vessel’s fair value less cost of disposal and its value in use. The carrying amounts of vessels held and used by us are reviewed for potential impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that
the carrying amount of a particular vessel may not accurately reflect the recoverable amount of a particular vessel. Each of the Company’s vessels have been viewed as a separate CGU as the vessels have cash inflows that are largely
independent of the cash inflows from other assets. In instances where a vessel is considered impaired, it is written down to its recoverable amount. For the quarter ended September 30, 2025, the Company performed an assessment using both
internal and external sources of information and concluded that there were no indicators of impairment.
