Highlights of the quarter:
 
EBITDA for the quarter of $7.3 million and net loss for the quarter of $4.2 million ($0.27 per share) after adjusting for a non-cash impairment charge of $92.5 million.  Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter was $8.5 million.

The Company will pay a dividend of $0.02 per common share and $0.28 per preferred share for the quarter payable on November 12, 2012 for shareholders of record as of November 6, 2012. When determining the dividend our Board has taken into account general business conditions, the continued weak tanker market and the recent 8-K filing by OSG.

Following the recent announcement by OSG regarding its solvency and due to the continued weak tanker markets, the Company adjusted the carrying value of its fleet through a non-cash impairment charge of $92.5 million.

 
 
 

 
 
 
The decline in revenues during 2012 is primarily due two vessels being sold during the second quarter and increased spot exposure as vessels have come off charters.

The Company is in compliance with its loan facilities and had an unencumbered cash balance of $72.2 million as of September 30, 2012. The Company has no scheduled principal installments under its three credit facilities in 2013 and 2014. Scheduled principal installments total $12.0 million in 2015. However, further decline in vessel values may result in additional prepayments in order to remain in compliance with minimum value covenants.

One vessel was redelivered from time charter with OSG during the quarter and two more vessels are expected to be redelivered from OSG during the next six months. Following these redeliveries, the remaining charters to OSG will be two Suezmax vessels which are on long-term bareboat charters to December 2014 and January 2018, respectively.

Following the fleet appraisal for the third quarter, DHT repaid $3.1 million under the RBS credit facility.  Following the fleet appraisal for the fourth quarter conducted in early October, DHT repaid $4.0 million in October. The next scheduled principal installment under the RBS facility is in Q4 2015.

The VLCC Venture Spirit, which was chartered in, was redelivered to its owner in September.  The vessel traded in the spot market during the quarter.

At the Company’s 2012 annual general meeting of shareholders, the shareholders voted to authorize a 12-for-1 reverse stock split of DHT’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share.  The reverse stock split became effective after the close of business on July 16, 2012.
 
 
 
Third Quarter 2012 Financials
The Company reported net revenues for the third quarter of 2012 of $18.0 million.  The revenues reflect increased spot market exposure and the sale of two vessels in the second quarter.

Vessel operating expenses for the quarter were $6.3 million, and are in line with the Company’s plans as well as vessel operating expenses during the preceding quarters. Charter hire expense for the quarter was $2.2 million related to the charter in of the Venture Spirit which was redelivered to its owner in September.

Depreciation and amortization, including depreciation of capitalized survey expenses, was $10.6 million for the quarter.  The increase in depreciation in the third quarter is a result of a change in estimated useful life for the calculation of depreciation from 25 years to 20 years.

Following the recent announcement by OSG regarding its solvency and due to the continued weak tanker markets, the Company adjusted the carrying value of its fleet through a non-cash impairment charge of $92.5 million. The impairment charge is a non-cash item.

G&A for the quarter was $2.2 million and includes non-cash charges related to restricted share agreements for the Company’s management and board of directors.

Net financial expenses were $0.9 million for the quarter including a net non-cash gain on interest rate swaps of $0.6 million.
 
 
 
 
 

 
 
 
Following the non-cash impairment charge of $92.5 million, the Company had a net loss for the quarter of $96.7 million.  Net cash provided by operating activities for the quarter was $8.5 million.

The increase in accounts receivables during 2012 is primarily due to more vessels operating in the spot market. A significant part of the accounts receivable as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 relates to working capital for vessels operating in commercial pools. With regards to vessels on charter to subsidiaries of OSG and Frontline, the charter hire is paid monthly in advance. Subsequent to an amendment to the time charter with Frontline whereas the charter hire shall be paid at $26,000 per day monthly in advance for the remaining period of the charter commencing January 1, 2012, the difference between the original charter hire and the amendment, being $6,500 per day, shall be paid in arrears with one lump sum payment in December 2012 and a second lump sum payment at the end of the charter period.  As a result we had an accounts receivable from Frontline of $1.7 million as of September 30, 2012.

At the end of the quarter, our cash balance was $72.2 million.

As a result of a fleet appraisal related to the RBS credit facility conducted in early October 2012, $4.0 million was classified as a current portion of long-term debt as of September 30, 2012.

As of September 30, 2012, we had 8,599,680 shares of common stock and 400,967 shares of preferred stock issued and outstanding, respectively.  A total of 41,699 shares of preferred stock were exchanged for common stock during the quarter.  The Company has a total of 15,414,438 outstanding shares on a fully exchanged and diluted basis.

The Company declared a cash dividend of $0.02 per common share and $0.28 per preferred share for the third quarter payable on November 12, 2012 for shareholders of record as of November 6, 2012. When determining the dividend our Board has taken into account such matters as general business conditions, the continued weak tanker market and the recent 8-K filing by OSG.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS FOR THE PERIOD ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2012

Note 1 – General information
DHT Holdings, Inc. (“DHT” or the “Company”) is a limited company incorporated under the laws of the Marshall Islands whose shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange. The Company’s principal executive office is located at 26 New Street, St. Helier, Jersey, Channel Islands. The Company’s principal activity is the ownership and operation of a fleet of crude oil carriers. Part of our strategy is to employ our vessels with a combination of market exposure and fixed income contracts.

The financial statement were approved by the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) on October 23, 2012 and authorized for issue on October 23, 2012.

Note 2 – General accounting principals
The condensed consolidated interim financial statements do not include all information and disclosure 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 2011.

The condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with IAS 34 “Interim Financial Reporting” as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IFRS”).

The condensed financial statements have been prepared on a historical cost basis, except for derivative financial instruments that have been measured at fair value. The accounting policies that have been followed in these condensed financial statements are the same as presented in the 2011 audited consolidated financial statements.

These interim financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis.

Changes in accounting policy and disclosure

New and amended standards, and interpretations mandatory for the first time for the financial year beginning January 1, 2012 but not currently relevant to the group (although they may affect the accounting for future transactions and events). The adoption did not have any effect on the financial statements:

 
Revised IAS 24 (revised), ‘Related party disclosures’, issued in November 2009. Effective January 1, 2011.

 
Classification of rights issues (amendment to IAS 32), issued in October 2009. The amendment applies to annual periods beginning on or after February 1, 2010.

 
IFRIC 19, ‘Extinguishing financial liabilities with equity instruments’, effective July 1, 2010.

 
Prepayments of a minimum funding requirement’ (amendments to IFRIC 14). The amendments correct an unintended  consequence of IFRIC 14, ‘IAS 19 – The limit on a defined benefit asset, minimum funding requirements and their  interaction’.

 
Annual Improvements project, The improvement project is an annual project that provides a mechanism for making necessary but non urgent amendments in several standards.
 
 
 
 
 

 
 

 
Note 3 – Segment reporting
Since DHT’s business is limited to operating a fleet of crude oil tankers, management has organized the entity as one segment based upon on the service provided. Consequently, the Company has one operating segment as defined in IFRS 8, Operating Segments.  The Company’s vessels carry crude oil only. The Company’s management manages the Company’s operations as one business segment.

Entity-wide disclosures:

Information about major customers:

As of September 30, 2012, five of the Company’s nine vessels were on charter, pursuant to either time charters or long-term bareboat charters. The long-term bareboat charters are to Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (OSG) and are an important source of revenue for the Company.

Note 4 – Interest bearing debt
As of September 30, 2012, DHT had interest bearing debt totalling $216.7 million, of which $142.3 million is priced at Libor+0.70%, $31.3 million is priced at Libor+0.85%, $18.4 million is priced at Libor+3.00% and $24.8 million is priced at Libor+2.75%. Interest is payable quarterly in arrears. As of September 30, 2012, the Company had one interest rate swap in an amount of $65 million under which DHT pays a fixed rate of 5.95% including margin of 0.85%. The interest rate swap expires in January 2013. From January 1, 2009, the Company has discontinued hedge accounting on a prospective basis. Derivatives are re-measured to their fair value at each balance sheet date. The resulting gain and loss is recognized in profit or loss.

The Company’s credit agreements contain a financial covenant related to the charter-free market value of the Company’s vessels that secure the obligations under the credit facilities. With regards to the credit agreement with the Royal Bank of Scotland the charter free value (broker valuations) of the vessels that secure the obligations under this credit facility shall at all times be above 120% of the outstanding debt under the facility plus the actual or notional cost of terminating the interest rates swap. In order to stay in compliance with this covenant, the Company made a prepayment of $3.1 million in the third quarter 2012. As a result of a fleet appraisal related to the RBS credit facility conducted in early October 2012, the Company repaid $4.0 million in October in order to stay in compliance with this covenant.  This amount has been classified as current portion of long-term interest bearing debt as of September 30, 2012.

In March 2012 we entered into agreements to amend the credit agreements related to DHT Phoenix and DHT Eagle.  The agreements were amended whereby, upon satisfaction of certain conditions, including the prepayment of $6.7 million and $6.9 million (equal to all scheduled installments through 2014), respectively, until and including December 31, 2014: (i)  the “Value-to-Loan Ratio will be lowered from 130% to 120%; and (ii) the margin on the loans will be increased by 0.25% to 3.00% and 2.75%, respectively. These two amendments became effective upon the completion of the equity offering in early May at which time the above prepayments were made. These two credit facilities also contain financial covenants related to each of the borrowers as well as DHT on a consolidated basis. DHT covenants that, throughout the term of the credit agreements, DHT on a consolidated basis shall maintain unencumbered cash of at least $20 million, value adjusted tangible net worth of at least $100 million and value adjusted tangible net worth of no less than 25% of the value adjusted total assets.

Note 5 – Vessels
The carrying values of our vessels may not represent their fair market value at any point in time since the market prices of second-hand vessels tend to fluctuate with changes in charter rates and the cost of constructing new vessels.  Historically, both charter rates and vessel values have been cyclical.  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 be fully recoverable. The Company has performed an impairment test using the “value in use” method as of September 30, 2012.

In assessing “value in use”, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value.  In developing estimates of future cash flows, we make assumptions about future charter rates, ship operating expenses, the estimated remaining useful lives of the vessels and the discount rate.  These assumptions are based on current market conditions, historical trends as well as future expectations.  Although management believes that the assumptions used to evaluate potential impairment are reasonable and appropriate, such assumptions are subjective. The impairment test resulted in an impairment charge in the third quarter of $92.5 million. The impairment test has been performed using an estimated weighted average cost of capital of 8.39%.  The main changes from previous impairment tests is that we have assumed an estimated useful life of 20 years, down from 25 years and a reassessment of the long-term bare boat charters with OSG due to the announcement by OSG regarding its solvency. Commencing with the third quarter 2012 we apply the estimated useful life of 20 years when calculating depreciation.

The Aframaxes Overseas Rebecca and Overseas Ania were sold during the second quarter of 2012. DHT incurred a loss of $1.4 million on the sale of the two vessels in the second quarter.  A loss of $0.9 million related to the Overseas Rebecca was recorded in the first quarter 2012.

Note 6 – Equity Offering
A backstopped equity offering and a concurrent private placement of common stock and preferred stock by the Company closed on May 2, 2012.  DHT issued a total of 30,038,400 shares of common stock with par value of $0.01 per share and 442,666 shares of preferred stock with par value of $0.01 per share for total net proceeds of $76.0 million after expenses amounting to $4.0 million.  Upon effectiveness of the reverse stock split on July 17, 2012, the preferred shares became exchangeable into 7,525,322 shares of common stock on a split-adjusted basis and assuming no further adjustments.  Unless voluntarily exchanged by each shareholder prior to June 30, 2013, the preferred shares will automatically be exchanged for shares of common stock in July 2013.  Assuming the full exchange of all shares of preferred stock into shares of common stock a total of approximately 15.4 million shares of common stock would have been issued and outstanding.

In February 2011, DHT issued a total of 15,425,300 shares of common stock with par value of $0.01 per share for total net proceeds of $67.5 million after underwriting discount and expenses amounting to $4.2 million.

 
 
 
 

 
 

 
Note 7 – Stockholders equity and dividend payment
At the Company’s 2012 annual general meeting of shareholders, the shareholders voted to authorize the Board to effect a reverse stock split of DHT’s common stock, par value of $0.01 per share, at a reverse stock split ratio of 12-for-1 and to amend the articles of incorporation to effect the reverse stock split and adjust the total number of authorized shares of common stock to 30,000,000. The reverse stock split became effective after the close of business on July 16, 2012.

Note 8 – Accounts receivable
The increase in accounts receivables during 2012 is primarily due to more vessels operating in the spot market. A significant part of the accounts receivable as of September 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 relates to working capital for vessels operating in commercial pools. With regards to vessels on charter to subsidiaries of OSG and Frontline, the charter hire is paid monthly in advance. Subsequent to an amendment to the time charter with Frontline whereas the charter hire shall be paid at $26,000 per day monthly in advance for the remaining period of the charter commencing January 1, 2012, the difference between the original charter hire and the amendment, being $6,500 per day, shall be paid in arrears with one lump sum payment in December 2012 and a second lump sum payment at the end of the charter period.  As a result we had an accounts receivable from Frontline of $1.7 million as of September 30, 2012.

Note 9 - Financial risk management, objectives and policies
Note 9 in the 2011 annual report on Form 20F provides for details of financial risk management objectives and policies.

The Company’s principal financial liability consists of long-term debt with the main purpose being to finance the Company’s assets and operations. The Company’s financial assets mainly comprise cash. The Company is exposed to market risk, credit risk and liquidity risk. The Company’s senior management oversees the management of these risks.

Note 10 – Subsequent Events
On October 23, 2012 the Board approved a dividend of $0.02 per common share and $0.28 per preferred share related to the third quarter 2012 to be paid on November 12, 2012 for shareholders of record as of November 6, 2012.
