Teksts |
The Latvian Shipping Company and its subsidiaries (LSC Group) revenue for the first 9 months of 2016 was USD 74,33 million (USD 68,93 million in the first 9M of 2015) with a stable net voyage result for the period of USD 68,03 million. The net loss of the LSC Group for the first 9 months of 2016 was USD 19,33 million. The result was mainly attributable to revaluation loss recognised in respect to the value of the LSC fleet in the amount of USD 18,26 million and the negative impact of the USD/EURO exchange rate in the amount of USD 3,67 million. Fleet
operating profit slightly rose to USD 43,47 million in the first 9
months of 2016 – higher than in the same period in the previous
year when it was USD 39,39 million. The total net book value of the
LSC Group’s fleet at 30th September 2016 was 282,50 million USD (31
December 2015 – 364,75 million USD), LSC management has reviewed
the current methodology for determining the value of the fleet and,
to ensure full transparency with investors and stakeholders, has
decided to determine the value of the fleet on the balance sheet
using the “lower” of fair (market) value or the “value in use”
methodology applied over fifteen years useful life. The previous
methodology allowed the higher of the two valuations to be used for
financial reporting. Given the deterioration in asset values the
fair (market) value has been applied for this reporting period and
it is anticipated that this valuation will also be applied in the
near term given the negative outlook for shipping.
The key
financial indicators for the LSC Group for the first 9 months for
the last three financial years were as follows (USD million):
