Exhibit 99.2

 

GasLog Ltd. Reports Financial Results for the Three-Month Period Ended September 30, 2023

 

Hamilton, Bermuda, November 16, 2023, GasLog Ltd. and its subsidiaries (“GasLog”, “Group” or “Company”) (NYSE: GLOG-PA), an international owner, operator and manager of liquefied natural gas (“LNG”) carriers, today reported its financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2023.

 

Recent Developments

 

Merger Agreement with GasLog Partners

 

On April 6, 2023, GasLog entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with GasLog Partners LP (“GasLog Partners” or the “Partnership”), GasLog Partners GP LLC, the general partner of the Partnership and Saturn Merger Sub LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of GasLog (“Merger Sub”). Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, (i) Merger Sub would merge with and into the Partnership, with the Partnership surviving as a direct subsidiary of GasLog, and (ii) GasLog would acquire the outstanding common units of the Partnership not beneficially owned by GasLog for overall consideration of $8.65 per common unit in cash (the “Transaction”), consisting in part of a special distribution by the Partnership of $3.28 per common unit in cash (the “Special Distribution”) that would be distributed to the Partnership’s unitholders in connection with the closing of the Transaction and the remainder to be paid by GasLog as merger consideration at the closing of the Transaction.

 

The conflicts committee (the “Conflicts Committee”) of the Partnership’s board of directors, comprised solely of independent directors and advised by its own independent legal and financial advisors, unanimously recommended that the Partnership’s board of directors approve the Merger Agreement and determined that the Transaction was in the best interests of the Partnership and the holders of its common units unaffiliated with GasLog. Acting upon the recommendation and approval of the Conflicts Committee, the Partnership’s board of directors unanimously approved the Merger Agreement and the Transaction and recommended that the common unitholders of the Partnership vote in favor of the Transaction.

 

The Transaction was approved at the special meeting of the common unitholders of the Partnership held on July 7, 2023, based on the affirmative vote (in person and in proxy) of the holders of at least a majority of the common units of the Partnership entitled to vote thereon, voting as a single class, subject to a cutback for certain unitholders beneficially owning more than 4.9% of the outstanding common units (as provided for in the Partnership’s Seventh Amended and Restated Agreement of Limited Partnership and described in the proxy statement of the Partnership dated June 5, 2023 as filed with the Securities Exchange Commission (“SEC”)). The payment date for the Special Distribution was July 12, 2023. The Transaction closed on July 13, 2023 at 6:30 a.m. Eastern Time (the “Effective Time”) upon the filing of the certificate of merger with the Marshall Islands Registrar of Corporations. At the Effective Time, each common unit that was issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than common units that, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time, were held by GasLog) was converted into the right to receive $5.37 in cash, without interest and reduced by any applicable tax withholding, for each common unit. Accordingly, holders of common units not already beneficially owned by GasLog who held their common units both on the Special Distribution record date of July 10, 2023 (subject to the applicability of due-bill trading) and at the Effective Time received overall consideration of $8.65 per common unit. Trading in the Partnership’s common units on the New York Stock Exchange (“NYSE”) was suspended on July 13, 2023, and delisting of the common units took place on July 24, 2023. The Partnership’s 8.625% Series A Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Fixed to Floating Rate Preference Units (the “Partnership’s Series A Preference Units”), 8.200% Series B Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Fixed to Floating Rate Preference Units (the “Partnership’s Series B Preference Units”) and 8.500% Series C Cumulative Redeemable Perpetual Fixed to Floating Rate Preference Units (the “Partnership’s Series C Preference Units”) remain outstanding and continue to trade on the NYSE.

 

The merger consideration was partially financed by the borrowing of a term loan in an aggregate principal amount of $50.0 million under a Bridge Facility Agreement dated July 3, 2023 (the “Bridge Facility Agreement”), among Merger Sub, as the original borrower, GasLog, as guarantor, DNB (UK) Ltd., as arranger and bookrunner, the lenders party thereto and DNB Bank ASA, London Branch, as agent, with the Partnership succeeding to the obligations of Merger Sub upon the consummation of the Transaction. The aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Bridge Facility Agreement was repaid in full, together with accrued and unpaid interest, on July 26, 2023.

 

New Charter Agreements

 

During the third quarter of 2023, GasLog Partners extended by one year the time charter agreement of the Methane Alison Victoria, a steam turbine propulsion (“Steam”) LNG carrier, with CNTIC VPower Energy Ltd. (“CNTIC VPower”), an independent Chinese energy company, with the contract now to expire in 2024. In addition, GasLog Partners signed a multi-year time charter agreement for the Solaris, a tri-fuel diesel electric engine propulsion (“TFDE”) LNG carrier, with KE Fuel International Co., Ltd. (“Kansai”) and a multi-year time charter agreement for the Methane Rita Andrea, a Steam LNG carrier, with an Asian LNG buyer. Post-quarter end, GasLog extended by five years the time charter agreement of the GasLog Singapore, a TFDE LNG carrier, with New Fortress Energy Transport Partners LLC (“NFE Transport Partners LLC”), with the contract now due to expire in 2030. In addition, GasLog Partners signed a multi-year time charter agreement for the GasLog Santiago, a TFDE LNG carrier, with a major energy exploration company.

 

New $2.8 billion Five-year Sustainability-linked Senior Secured Reducing Revolving Credit Facility

 

On November 2, 2023, GasLog, signed a new Five-Year Sustainability-Linked Senior Secured Reducing Revolving Credit Facility in the amount of $2.8 billion (the “Facility”). This financing, involving 14 international banks, includes decarbonization and social key performance targets as a component of the Facility pricing. The Facility refinances all outstanding debt of $2.1 billion secured by 23 LNG carriers across both GasLog and GasLog Partners LP, following the acquisition by GasLog on July 13, 2023 of all the outstanding common units of GasLog Partners LP

 

 

 

 

not already beneficially owned by GasLog. The 23 LNG carriers (12 GasLog vessels and 11 GasLog Partners vessels) included in the Facility are comprised of ten dual-fuel two-stroke engine propulsion (“X-DF”) LNG carriers, ten TFDE LNG carriers and three Steam LNG carriers. The Facility has a five-year tenor, includes two one-year extension options and simplifies GasLog’s debt structure, providing incremental available liquidity to the company while reducing interest cost and debt service requirements. Citibank, N.A., London Branch and BNP Paribas acted as joint coordinators on the Facility. DNB Bank ASA, London Branch has been appointed as agent and security agent and ABN AMRO BANK N.V. as sustainability co-ordinator. Alpha Bank S.A., Credit Suisse AG, a UBS Group Company, Danish Ship Finance A/S, ING Bank N.V., London Branch, National Bank of Greece S.A., Nordea Bank ABP, Filial I Norge, Oversea-Chinese Banking Corporation Limited, DNB (UK) Limited and Standard Chartered Bank (Singapore) Limited acted as bookrunners and mandated lead arrangers alongside the coordinators, the agent and the sustainability co-ordinator. National Australia Bank Limited and Skandinaviska Enskilda Banken AB (Publ) were mandated lead arrangers. The transaction was completed on November 13, 2023, with GasLog drawing down an amount of $2.1 billion and $672.0 million remaining available for general corporate purposes.

GasLog Quarterly Financial Results

 

Amounts in thousands of U.S. dollars  For the three months ended 
   September 30,
2022
   September 30,
2023
 
Revenues  $241,918   $229,018 
Profit for the period  $109,123   $46,451 
Adjusted EBITDA1  $192,861   $177,320 
Adjusted Profit1  $84,762   $57,311 

 1 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be used in isolation or as substitutes for GasLog’s financial results presented in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”). For the definitions and reconciliations of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS, please refer to Exhibit II at the end of this press release.

 

There were 2,865 available days for the quarter ended September 30, 2023, as compared to 3,199 available days for the quarter ended September 30, 2022. Available days represent total calendar days in the period after deducting off-hire days where vessels are undergoing dry-dockings and unavailable days (for example, days before and after a dry-docking where the vessel has limited practical ability for chartering opportunities). The decrease in available days was attributable to the Floating Storage Regasification Unit (“FSRU”) conversion of the Alexandroupolis that started in February 2023, the increase in off-hire days for scheduled dry-dockings and repairs (nil dry-docking off-hire days in the three-month period ended September 30, 2022, compared to 79 scheduled dry-docking and repair off-hire days in the three-month period ended September 30, 2023), the sale of the Methane Shirley Elisabeth in September 2022 and the sale of the GasLog Athens in July 2023.

 

Revenues were $229.0 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 ($241.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022). The decrease in revenues is mainly attributable to the decrease in available days explained above. This decrease was partially offset by a net increase in revenues from our vessels operating in the spot and short-term markets in the third quarter of 2023.

 

Profit for the period was $46.5 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 ($109.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022). The decrease in profit is mainly attributable to the decrease of $29.9 million in gain from the marked-to-market valuation of our derivative financial instruments carried at fair value through profit or loss due to changes in the forward yield curve, the increase of $17.2 million in financial costs, mainly attributable to the increase in interest expense on loans, all as a result of the increased interest rates in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 and the decrease of $12.9 million in revenues, as discussed above, partially offset by the decrease of $6.1 million in realized loss from derivatives held for trading.

 

Adjusted EBITDA was $177.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 ($192.9 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022). The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA is mainly attributable to the decrease in revenues of $12.9 million, as discussed above, the increase of $1.7

 

 

 

 

million in general and administrative expenses and the increase of $1.1 million in vessel operating and supervision costs.

 

Adjusted Profit was $57.3 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2023 ($84.8 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2022). The decrease in Adjusted Profit is mainly attributable to the decrease in Adjusted EBITDA and the increase in financial costs, partially offset by the increase in financial income, all as a result of the increase in interest rates in the third quarter of 2023 as compared to the same period in 2022 and the decrease in realized loss from derivatives held for trading.

 

As of September 30, 2023, GasLog had $172.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. An additional amount of $38.6 million of time deposits with an original duration greater than three months was classified under short-term cash deposits.

 

As of September 30, 2023, GasLog had an aggregate of $2.9 billion of indebtedness outstanding under its credit facilities and bond agreements, of which $332.3 million is repayable within one year. Current bank borrowings include an amount of $148.2 million with respect to the credit facility of up to $450.0 million of GAS-four Ltd., GAS-sixteen Ltd. and GAS-seventeen Ltd. with Credit Suisse AG, Nordea Bank Abp, filial I Norge, Iyo Bank Ltd., Singapore Branch and the Development Bank of Japan, Inc. (the “2019 GasLog Partners Facility”) which matures in February 2024 (and which was refinanced under the Facility). Furthermore, as of September 30, 2023, we also had an aggregate of $400.9 million of lease liabilities, of which $70.8 million is payable within one year.

 

As of September 30, 2023, the total remaining balance of the contract prices of the four LNG carriers on order was $597.6 million, of which $330.9 million is due within 12 months and will be funded by the four sale and leaseback agreements entered into on July 6, 2022 with CMB Financial Leasing Co., Ltd. (“CMBFL”).

 

As of September 30, 2023, GasLog’s current assets totaled $263.3 million, while current liabilities totaled $588.1 million, resulting in a negative working capital position of $324.8 million. Current liabilities include $148.2 million relating to the 2019 GasLog Partners Facility which matures in February 2024, as mentioned above, and $66.6 million of unearned revenue in relation to hires received in advance of September 30, 2023 (which represents a non-cash liability that will be recognized as revenue in October 2023 as the services are rendered).

 

Management monitors the Company’s liquidity position throughout the year to ensure that it has access to sufficient funds to meet its forecast cash requirements, including newbuilding and debt service commitments, and to monitor compliance with the financial covenants within its loan and bond facilities. We anticipate that our primary sources of funds for at least twelve months from the date of this report will be available cash, cash from operations, existing and future borrowings and future sale and leaseback transactions. We believe that these anticipated sources of funds will be sufficient to meet our liquidity needs and to comply with our financial covenants for at least twelve months from the date of this report and therefore it is appropriate to prepare the financial statements on a going concern basis.

Revenues were $100.7 million for the third quarter of 2023 ($95.7 million for the same period in 2022).

Profit was $30.9 million for the third quarter of 2023 ($42.7 million for the same period in 2022). The decrease in profit of $11.8 million is mainly attributable to an increase of $4.1 million in financial costs, a decrease of $3.1 million in gain on derivatives, an increase of $2.5 million in general and administrative expenses and an increase of $1.7 million in voyage expenses and commissions.

 

As of September 30, 2023, GasLog Partners had $68.8 million of cash and cash equivalents. An additional amount of $9.0 million of time deposits with an original duration greater than three months was classified under short-term cash deposits.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures:

 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit

 

EBITDA is defined as earnings before depreciation, amortization, financial income and costs, gain/loss on derivatives and taxes. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before foreign exchange gains/losses, impairment loss, gain/loss on disposal of non-current assets, restructuring costs and the costs relating to the 2021 take-private transaction with BlackRock’s Global Energy & Power Infrastructure team and the Transaction (collectively such costs, the “Transaction Costs”). Adjusted Profit represents earnings before write-off and accelerated amortization of unamortized loan fees/bond fees and premium/discount, foreign exchange gains/losses, unrealized foreign exchange losses on cash and bond, impairment loss, swap optimization costs (with respect to cash collateral amendments), gain/loss on disposal of non-current assets, restructuring costs, Transaction Costs and non-cash gain/loss on derivatives that includes (if any) (a) unrealized gain/loss on derivative financial instruments held for trading, (b) recycled loss of cash flow hedges reclassified to profit or loss and (c) ineffective portion of cash flow hedges. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit are non-GAAP financial measures that are used as supplemental financial measures by management and external users of financial statements, such as investors, to assess our financial and operating performance. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures assist our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period. We believe that including EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit assists our management and investors in (i) understanding and analyzing the results of our operating and business performance, (ii) selecting between investing in us and other investment alternatives and (iii) monitoring our ongoing financial and operational strength in assessing whether to purchase and/or to continue to hold our common shares. This is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods of, in the case of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, financial costs, gain/loss on derivatives, taxes, depreciation and amortization; in the case of Adjusted EBITDA, foreign exchange gains/losses, impairment loss, gain/loss on disposal of non-current assets, restructuring costs and Transaction Costs; and in the case of Adjusted Profit, write-off and accelerated amortization of unamortized loan/bond fees and premium/discount, foreign exchange gains/losses, unrealized foreign exchange losses on cash and bond, impairment loss, swap optimization costs (with respect to cash collateral amendments), gain/loss on disposal of non-current assets, restructuring costs, Transaction Costs and non-cash gain/loss on derivatives, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, financial market conditions, capital structure and historical cost basis, and which items may significantly affect results of operations between periods.

 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as alternatives to, or as substitutes for, or superior to, profit, profit from operations, or any other measure of operating performance presented in accordance with IFRS. Some of these limitations include the fact that they do not reflect (i) our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments, (ii) changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs and (iii) the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt. Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the assets being depreciated and amortized will have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit are not adjusted for all non-cash income or expense items that are reflected in our statements of cash flows and other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as a comparative measure.

 

In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as, or similar to, some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted Profit should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by the excluded items. Therefore, the non-GAAP financial measures as presented below may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in the shipping or other industries.
