Exhibit 99.1
HIGHLIGHTS
TORM’s results in the first half of 2019 reflect the Company’s strong
operating performance relative to its peers and our focus on maintaining efficient operations and a low cost base. Our profit before tax of USD 28.7m in the first half of 2019 represented the strongest half-year result in three years, and we are
pleased to be able to generate a profit also in the second quarter of year that has been negatively impacted by an unusually high and prolonged refinery maintenance period,“ says Executive Director Jacob Meldgaard and adds: “We believe the IMO
2020 regulation will drive increased demand for product tankers and that TORM is well positioned to take advantage of these new market dynamics.”|
RESULT
|
EBITDA1 for the second quarter of 2019 was USD 40.6m (2018, same period: USD 29.4m). The profit before tax amounted to USD 5.2m (2018, same period:
loss of USD 8.6m). Cash flow from operating activities was positive at USD 37.6m in the second quarter of 2019 (2018, same period: USD 25.1m), and earnings per share (EPS) was 7 cents (2018, same period: loss per share of 12 cents). Return
on Invested Capital2 (RoIC) was 3.9% (2018, same period: 0.1%).
EBITDA for the half year ended 30 June 2019 was USD 102.1m (2018, same period: USD 66.7m). The profit before tax for the first six months of 2019 amounted to USD
28.7m (2018, same period: loss of USD 7.5m). Cash flow from operating activities was positive with USD 93.0m in the first six months of 2019 (2018, same period: USD 43.0m), and earnings per share (EPS) was 38 cents (2018, same period: loss
per share of 12 cents). Return on Invested Capital (RoIC) was 6.2% (2018, same period: 1.2%).
The Board of Directors has considered the Company’s options and believes that at this time the continued modernization of the fleet through newbuildings,
purchase of modern second-hand tonnage and scrubber installations will provide for the optimal capital allocation.

|
MARKET CONDITIONS
|
In the second quarter of 2019, TORM achieved TCE rates of USD/day 15,405 (2018, same period: USD/day 12,944). The product tanker freight rates started the first
quarter of 2019 at strong levels, last seen in 2016, before softening throughout the quarter as spring refinery maintenance gained pace. Refinery maintenance in the second quarter was particularly pronounced, and coupled with a series of
unplanned outages, the volume of global refinery capacity that was offline was 23% higher than during the same period last year.

HIGHLIGHTS
|
VESSEL TRANSACTIONS AND FINANCING
|
During the second quarter of 2019, TORM has purchased four modern 2011-built MR vessels for a total consideration of USD 83m. The vesselsare expected to be
delivered during August 2019. To finance the purchase and to support TORM’s solid capital structure, TORM has entered into six sale and leaseback transactions, which are expected to be executed during the third quarter of 2019. The
transactions cover:
• Four recently purchased
2011-built MR vessels providing proceeds of USD 66m. The transaction is with a Chinese counterpart and includes a purchase obligation in 2025
• The MR vessels TORM Torino and
TORM Titan (both 2016-built) are providing total proceeds of USD 52m, and in connection with the transactions, USD 18m of the existing debt will be repaid. The transactions are with two separate Japanese counterparts and include a
purchase obligation in 2024 for TORM Torino and in 2026 for TORM Titan
TORM also took delivery of two MR newbuildings during the second quarter of 2019, sold the MR vessel TORM Gunhild (built in 1999) for a consideration of USD 6m
and repaid debt of USD 4m in connection with the vessel sale. The vessel has been delivered to the new owners. After the quarter ended on 30 June 2019, TORM has taken delivery of one MR newbuilding and sold two additional vessels, the MR
vessel TORM San Jacinto (built in 2002) and the Handy vessel TORM Saone (built in 2004), for a total consideration of USD 16m. TORM will repay debt of USD 9m in connection with the vessel sales and expects to deliver the vessels to the new
owners during the third quarter of 2019.
|
|
IMO 2020 SULFUR REGULATION
|
The implementation deadline for the IMO 2020 sulfur regulation is approaching, and the shipping industry has to comply with the new regulation either by reducing
sulfur emissions with scrubbers or by using compliant fuels. TORM’s joint venture ME Production China, a joint venture with ME Production, a leading scrubber manufacturer, and Guangzhou Shipyard International (GSI), which is part of the
China State Shipbuilding Corporation Group, has provided us with the flexibility to make timely decisions on retrofit installations as we developed our compliance strategy. With close to half of the fleet being retrofitted with scrubbers
and half of the fleet using compliant fuels, TORM has a balanced approach to the new regulation. We have developed customized schedules for the vessels that will be using compliant fuels from 1 January 2020. As of 15 August 2019, TORM has
conducted six scrubber installations, and by 1 January 2020, 28 out of 34 scheduled installations are expected to be finalized, with the remaining six consisting of three newbuilding deliveries and three retrofit installations.
|
|
VESSEL VALUES
|
Based on broker valuations, TORM’s fleet including newbuildings and recently purchased second-hand vessels had a market value of USD 1,735.6m as of 30 June 2019. Compared to broker valuations as of 31 March 2019, the market value of the fleet increased by USD 75m (~5%), when adjusted for sold and purchased vessels.

SAFE HARBOR STATEMENTS AS TO
THE FUTURE
Matters discussed in this release may
constitute forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements reflect our current views with respect to future events and financial performance and may include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events
or performance, and underlying assumptions and statements other than statements of historical facts. The words “believe,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “estimate,” “forecast,” “project,” “plan,” “potential,” “may,” “should,” “expect,” “pending”
and similar expressions generally identify forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements in this release
are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available
from third parties. Although the Company believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult or impossible to
predict and are beyond our control, the Company cannot guarantee that it will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.
|
Important factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include the strength of the world economy and currencies, general
market conditions, including fluctuations in charter hire rates and vessel values, changes in demand for “ton-miles” of oil carried by oil tankers and changes in demand for tanker vessel capacity, the effect of changes in OPEC’s petroleum
production levels and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in demand that may affect attitudes of time charterers to scheduled and unscheduled dry-docking, changes in TORM’s operating expenses, including bunker prices,
dry-docking and insurance costs, changes in the regulation of shipping operations, including actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, domestic and international political conditions,
potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents, political events including “trade wars,” or acts by terrorists.
|
In light of these risks and uncertainties, you
should not place undue reliance on forward-looking statements contained in this release because they are statements about events that are not certain to occur as described or at all. These forward-looking statements are not guarantees of
our future performance, and actual results and future developments may vary materially from those projected in the forward-looking statements.
Except to the extent required by applicable law
or regulation, the Company undertakes no obligation to release publicly any revisions or updates to these forward-looking statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date of this release or to reflect the occurrence of
unanticipated events. Please see TORM’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete discussion of certain of these and other risks and uncertainties.

TORM INTERIM RESULTS FOR THE SECOND QUARTER AND HALF YEAR ENDED 30 JUNE 2019
|

|
THE PRODUCT TANKER MARKET
Product tanker freight rates softened in the second quarter of 2019 particularly due to heavy refinery maintenance and unplanned outages. In general, freight rates
were slightly stronger in the eastern than in the western hemisphere.
In the second quarter of 2019, the demand for oil products was affected by weaker macroeconomic activity. Diesel demand was also impacted by lower agricultural demand
in the US due to floodings. Refinery maintenance was particularly pronounced, and coupled with a series of unplanned outages, the volume of global refinery capacity that was offline was 23% higher than in the same period last year. While
refineries in the US gradually returned from maintenance, maintenance peaked in Asia, being 47% higher year on year. In Europe, offline capacity was up 34% also impacted by a number of unplanned outages. Refinery margins remained under seasonal
averages throughout the quarter, with Asia in particular seeing strong downside pressure from newbuilt refineries commencing crude runs.
Product tanker freight rates in the western markets were volatile, affected by a series of unplanned refinery outages on both sides of the Atlantic Basin. The second
quarter started with healthy transatlantic gasoline flows, supported by unplanned outages at several gasoline producing units in the US. In mid-April, a crude oil contamination in the Druzhba pipeline in Russia disrupted work at a number of
Eastern and Central European refineries, resulting in tightness in gasoline markets with negative impacts for the product tanker market. As gasoline was drawn from the Amsterdam-Rotterdam-Antwerp (ARA) area to inland, the gasoline arbitrage
window between Europe and the US closed (and even reversed). At the end of the quarter, a fire at the largest refinery on the US East Coast and the subsequent announcement of permanent clousure
of the refinery pushed gasoline prices
higher in New York and once again opened the transatlantic gasoline arbitrage, which impacted the product tanker market positively. On the longer-haul flows, gasoline flows from Europe to the East were low as a result of a combination of limited
cargo availability in Europe and abundant supply in Asia.
In the East, long-haul diesel flows from East Asia to West of Suez dropped significantly from the record levels seen in the first quarter, driven by a heavy refinery
maintenance season in Asia. This was partly offset by increased CPP exports from the Middle East as refineries in the region returned from maintenance. However, crude newbuildings continued to take a significant part of the East to West diesel
trade in June, and attacks on vessels near the Strait of Hormuz increased the geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and disrupted vessel traffic in and out of the area. The uncertainty surrounding supplies and logistics as well as increasing
shipping cost from the Middle East due to war risk insurance and other precautionary measures by owners resulted in a slowdown in Middle East exports.
The global product tanker fleet (above 25,000 dwt) grew by 1.2% in the second quarter of 2019 (source: TORM). This was down from the 1.6% pace in the first quarter.
During the second quarter of 2019, TORM’s product tanker fleet realized average TCE earnings of USD/day 15,405 (19% up year on year), and split per vessel class:
| • |
LR2 fleet at USD/day 17,894 (26% up year on year)
|
| • |
LR1 fleet at USD/day 14,582 (28% up year on year)
|
| • |
MR fleet at USD/day 15,163 (17% up year on year)
|
|
|
| • |
Handysize fleet at USD/day 12,882 (8% up year on year)
|
TORM’s gross profit for the second quarter of 2019 was USD 55.0m (2018, same period: USD 41.9m).
Outlook
| • |
As of 30 June 2019, TORM had covered 11% of the remaining earning days in 2019 at USD/day 15,197
|
| • |
As of 12 August 2019, TORM had covered 60% of the remaining earning days in the third quarter of 2019 at USD/day 13,636 and 31% of the remaining earning days in 2019 at
USD/day 13,738
|
| • |
As 9,063 earning days in 2019 are unfixed as of 12 August 2019, a change in freight rates of USD/day 1,000 will impact the full-year profit before tax by USD 9.1m

FINANCIAL REVIEW
INCOME STATEMENT
The gross profit for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was USD 128.9m (2018, same period: USD 90.7m). The increase was due to higher freight rates along with lower
operating expenses partly offset by less earning days. Average TCE rate for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was USD/day 16,689 compared to USD/day 13,575 in the same period in 2018. Available earning days were 12,877 compared to 13,756 in the
same period in 2018.
Administrative expenses for the six months ended 30 June 2019 were USD 24.7m (2018, same period: USD 24.3m).
Other operating expenses for the six months ended 30 June 2019 were USD 2.4m (2018, same period: USD 0.5). The increase is
mainly due to a one-off provision covering an exposure related to the operations.
The result before depreciation (EBITDA) for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was a profit of USD 102.1m (2018, same period: USD 66.7m). The increase is mainly due to
higher freight rates.
Depreciation for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was USD 53.0m (2018, same period: USD 57.2m). The decrease in depreciation was mainly due to increased residual
values on the vessels as a consequence of increased steel prices (approx. USD 3m).
The primary operating result (EBIT) for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was a profit of USD 46.4m (2018, same period: profit of USD 9.5m). The increase was mainly
due to higher freight rates along with lower operating expenses.
Financial expenses for the six months ended 30 June 2019 were USD 19.9m (2018, same period: USD 19.0m).
The result after tax for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was a profit of USD 28.4m (2018, same period: loss of USD 8.2m).
OTHER COMPREHENSIVE INCOME
Other comprehensive income for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was a loss of USD 12.2m (2018, same period: income of USD 2.0m). The decrease is mainly due to a
negative fair value adjustment of hedging instruments – primarily related to interest swaps. Total comprehensive income for the six months ended 30 June 2019 is an income of USD 16.2m (2018, same period: a loss of USD 6.2m). The development in
total comprehensive income is primarily driven by an increase in the net profit for the period partly offset by a negative fair value adjustment on hedging instruments.
ASSETS
As of 30 June 2019, total assets amounted to USD 1,718.2m.
The carrying value of the fleet including prepayments was USD 1,471.6m as of 30 June 2019, excluding outstanding installments on the LR1 and MR vessels under
construction and the four MR second-hand vessels of USD 271.4m. Based on broker valuations, TORM’s fleet including newbuildings and resale vessels had a market value of USD 1,735.6m as of 30 June 2019.
DEBT
As of 30 June 2019, net interest-bearing debt amounted to USD 622.7m. As of 30 June 2019, TORM was in compliance with the financial covenants.
EQUITY
As of 30 June 2019, TORM’s equity was USD 864.3m, and TORM held treasury shares equivalent to 0.4% of the Company's share capital.
LIQUIDITY
As of 30 June 2019, TORM’s available liquidity was USD 366.9m and consisted of cash and cash equivalents of USD 106.4m and undrawn credit facilities of USD 260.5m. The
undrawn credit facilities consisted of a USD 75.0m working capital facility, an available facility of USD 65.9m to finance one new MR vessel and another two MR vessels under construction, a USD 73.7m facility financing two LR1 and one MR vessels
under construction and a USD 45.9m facility subject to documentation financing two MR vessels under construction. The available liquidity excludes the estimated impact of USD 99m from sale and leaseback transactions related to two existing MR
vessels and four second-hand MR vessels that TORM has purchased.
As of 30 June 2019, TORM had CAPEX commitments of USD 271.4m all related to the LR1 and MR vessels under construction, including scrubbers related to these vessels and
the four second-hand vessels. In addition, TORM has CAPEX commitments of USD 32.5m for retrofit scrubber installations.

CASH FLOW
Cash flow from operating activities for the six months ended 30 June 2019 amounted to USD 93.0m (2018, same period: USD 43.0m). The increase is primarily driven by a
higher operating profit.
Cash flow from investing activities for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was USD -78.3m (2018, same period: USD -118.9m). The change is mainly driven by a lower
newbuilding CAPEX and sale of vessels.
Cash flow from financing activities for the six months ended 30 June 2019 was USD -42.5m (2018, same period: USD 101.8m). The main reason for the high amount in Q1-Q2
2018 was the January 2018 capital increase (USD 100m) along with a lower amount of net borrowing.
RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS
During the six months ended 30 June 2019, TORM’s transactions with its joint ventures covered CAPEX of a total of USD 11.0m. All transactions were carried out at arm’s
length and the outstanding balance as of 30 June 2019 was USD 0.5m.
RISKS AND UNCERTAINTIES
There are a number of potential risks and uncertainties which could have a material impact on the Group’s performance over the remaining six months of 2019. Risks and
uncertainties, along with the mitigation measures put in place to reduce risks, remain unchanged from those published in the Annual Report 2018 and are summarized below:
| • |
Tanker freight rates – The risk of sustained low tanker freight rates or of TORM not being able to predict and act on the development of these. Furthermore, TORM is active in
the cyclical product tanker industry where earnings may also be affected by seasonality
|
| • |
Bunker price – The risk of unexpected bunker price increases not covered by corresponding freight rate increases
|
| • |
Timing of sale and purchase of vessels – The risk of TORM not selling and purchasing vessels timely relative to market developments and business requirements
|
For further information and a detailed description of the most significant risks, please refer to Note 19 of the Annual Report 2018.
DIVIDENDS
The Board of Directors has considered the Company’s options and believes that at this time the continued modernization of the fleet through newbuildings, purchase of
modern second-hand tonnage and scrubber installations will provide for the optimal capital allocation. Considering the benefit of the Company’s combined shareholder and stakeholder base, it has therefore been decided not to distribute dividends
for the first six months of 2019.

NOTE 2 – VESSELS AND CAPITALIZED DRY-DOCKING
Included in the carrying amount for "Vessels and capitalized dry-docking" are capitalized dry-docking costs in the amount of USD 55.1m (30 June 2018: USD 62.1m, 31
December 2018: USD 67.5m).
The depreciation expense for the six months ended 30 June 2019 related to "Other plant and operating equipment" of USD 0.5m is included in the “Administrative
expenses” (30 June 2018: USD 0.5m, 31 December 2018: USD 1.1m).
Impairment assessment
For determination of the vessel values, TORM has carried out an impairment indicator assessment of the most significant assumptions used in the fair value and value in
use calculations for the Annual Report as of 31 December 2018 (please refer to Note 7 in the Annual Report 2018). Based on this, TORM has assessed that there are no impairment indicators noted as there were no significant changes in the
assumptions to either the fair value or the value in use, and therefore TORM does not find any need to reassess the recoverable amount as of 30 June 2019.
The impairment loss of USD 2.7m relates to specific vessels which have been reclassified to assets held-for-sale to be delivered to the buyers during Q1 and Q2 2019.
These vessels have been written down to their net selling price.

The presented amounts to be repaid do not include directly related costs arising from the issuing of the loans of USD 4.8m (30 June 2018: USD 5.4m, 31 December 2018:
USD 5.1m), which are amortized over the term of the loans.
As of 30 June 2019, TORM was in compliance with the financial covenants. TORM expects to remain in compliance with the financial covenants in the remaining period of
2019.
During the first six months of 2019, TORM signed a financing agreement with ABN AMRO to increase the existing facility of USD 70.0m by USD 3.7m to finance scrubber
installations on newbuildings.
The main conditions in the agreements are in line with the Company's existing loan agreements.
NOTE 6 – CONTINGENT LIABILITIES
The Group is involved in certain legal proceedings and disputes. It is Management’s opinion that the outcome of these proceedings and disputes will not have any
material impact on the Group’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The Group operates in a wide variety of jurisdictions, in some of which the company and individual tax law is subject to varying interpretations and potentially
inconsistent enforcement. As a result, there can be practical uncertainties in applying tax legislation to the Group’s activities. Whilst the Group considers that it operates in accordance with applicable company and individual tax law, there
are concrete potential tax exposures in respect of its operations, which are being investigated further. Based on current legal advice, these exposures are not considered to be material.

NOTE 7 – CONTRACTUAL OBLIGATIONS AND RIGHTS
As of 30 June 2019, TORM has contractual obligations regarding investment commitments including newbuilding and second-hand commitments and chartered-in vessels of USD
271.4m and USD 0.0m respectively (30 June 2018: USD 306.4m and USD 0.1m, 31 December 2018: USD 258.0m and USD 0.0m).
NOTE 8 – POST BALANCE SHEET DATE EVENTS
In July 2019, TORM has agreed sale and leaseback transactions on the MR vessels TORM Torino and TORM Titan (both built in 2016) with two Japanese counterparties. These
transactions will provide proceeds of USD 52m, and USD 18m of existing bank debt will be repaid in connection with the transactions. The lease agreements include a purchase obligation in 2024 for TORM Torino and in 2026 for TORM Titan.
For accounting purposes, the sale and leaseback transactions will be treated as financing arrangements, whereby the vessels will remain on the balance sheet with
unchanged values, and the obligations under the leasing contracts will be reflected as lease liabilities on the balance sheet.
After the quarter ended 30 June 2019, TORM has sold two additional vessels, the MR vessel TORM San Jacinto (built in 2002) and the Handy vessel TORM Saone (built in
2004), for a total consideration of USD 16m. TORM will repay debt of USD 9m in connection with the vessel sales and expects to deliver the vessels to the new owners during the third quarter of 2019.

The information for the year ended 31 December 2018 does not constitute statutory accounts as defined in section 435 of the Companies Act 2006. A copy of the statutory
accounts for that year has been delivered to the Registrar of Companies. The auditor's report on those accounts was not qualified, did not include a reference to any matters to which the auditors drew attention by way of emphasis without
qualifying the report and did not contain statements under section 498(2) or (3) of the Companies Act 2006.
Significant accounting policies
The interim report for the period 1 January-30 June 2019 is presented in accordance with IAS 34 "Interim Financial Reporting" as adopted by the EU and as issued by the
IASB. The interim report has been prepared using the accounting policies of TORM plc that are consistent with the accounting policies of the Annual Report 2018 and additional IFRS standards endorsed by the EU and as issued by the IASB effective
for accounting periods beginning after 1 January 2019. New standards have not had any material effect on the interim report other than mentioned below. The accounting policies are described in more detail in the Annual Report 2018. The interim
report for the period 1 January-30 June 2019 is not audited or reviewed, in line with normal practice.
Implementation of IFRS 16
IFRS 16 “Leases” became effective as of 1 January 2019, and the standard has been implemented using the modified retrospective approach, where comparative information
is not restated. TORM has in the past accounted for leaseback vessels as finance leases, and the implementation of IFRS 16 does not change the accounting for these vessels, which are presented as part of “Vessels and capitalized dry-docking” on
the balance sheet. The impact of
introducing IFRS 16 in TORM is limited to leasing agreements regarding office buildings and other administrative assets such as cars, office equipment, etc. The
implementation of IFRS 16 requires capitalization of the related lease agreements, and the effect as of 1 January 2019 is a recognition of a right-of-use asset and leasing liability of USD 11.4m. The right-of-use assets are shown as part of
“Land and buildings” and “Other plant and operating equipment” on the balance sheet. The implementation of IFRS 16 will only have a minor negative effect on the “Profit and Loss” in 2019 but will improve the Alternative Performance Measure
(APM) “EBITDA” by estimated USD 2.8m of which USD 2.5m will be reclassified from the line item “Administrative expenses” to “Depreciation” and approx. USD 0.3m will be reclassified from “Administrative expenses” to “Financial expenses”.
Going concern
The Group monitors its funding position throughout the year to ensure that it has access to sufficient funds to meet its forecasted cash requirements, including
newbuildings and loan commitments, and to monitor compliance with the financial covenants in its loan facilities. As of 30 June 2019, TORM’s available liquidity including undrawn facilities was USD 367m, TORM’s net debt was USD 623m and the net
debt loan-to-value ratio was 51%. TORM performs sensitivity calculations to reflect different scenarios including, but not limited to, future freight rates and vessel valuations in order to identify risks to future liquidity and covenant
compliance and to enable Management to take corrective actions, if required. The principal risks and uncertainties facing the Group are set out on page 11.
The Board of Directors has considered the Group’s cash flow forecast and the expected compliance with the Company’s financial covenants for a period of not less than
12 months from the date of approval of these financial statements. Based on this review, the Board of Directors has a reasonable expectation, taking reasonable changes in trading performance and vessel valuations into account, that the Group
will be able to continue in operational existence and comply with its financial covenants for the next 12 months. Accordingly, the Group continues to adopt the going concern principle in preparing its financial statements.

ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Throughout the interim report, several alternative performance measures (APMs) are used. The APMs used are the same as in the Annual Report, except for the
implementation of IFRS 16 (as described in note 9) and therefore we refer to the principles for these on pages 146-151 in the TORM plc Annual Report 2018. See www.torm.com/investors.
Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) earnings: TORM defines TCE earnings, a performance measure, as
revenue after port expenses, bunkers and commissions incl. freight and bunker derivatives. The Company reports TCE earnings because we believe it provides additional meaningful information to investors in relation to revenue, the most directly
comparable IFRS measure. TCE earnings is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company’s performance irrespective of changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot
charters, time charters and bareboat charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Below is presented a reconciliation from Revenue to TCE earnings:

Net interest-bearing debt: Net interest-bearing debt is defined as mortgage debt and bank loans
(current and non-current), finance lease liabilities and amortized bank fees less cash and cash equivalents. Net interest-bearing debt depicts the net capital resources, which cause net interest expenditure and interest rate risk and which,
together with equity, are used to finance our investments. As such, TORM believes that net interest-bearing debt is a relevant measure which Management uses to measure the overall development of our use of financing, other than equity. Such
measure may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Net interest-bearing debt is calculated as follows:

GLOSSARY
ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES – continued
EBITDA: TORM defines EBITDA as earnings before financial income and expenses, depreciation,
impairment, amortization and taxes. The computation of EBITDA refers to financial income and expenses which the Company deems to be equivalent to “interest” for purposes of presenting EBITDA. Financial expenses consist of interest on bank
loans and leasing liabilities, losses on foreign exchange transactions and bank charges. Financial income consists of interest income and gains on foreign exchange transactions.
EBITDA is used as a supplemental financial measure by Management and external users of financial statements, such as lenders, to assess TORM's operating
performance as well as compliance with the financial covenants and restrictions contained in the Company's financing agreements. TORM believes that EBITDA assists Management and investors in evaluating TORM’s operating performance by
increasing comparability of the Company's performance from period to period. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects of interest, depreciation, impairment, amortization and taxes. These are
items that could be affected by various changing financing methods, capital structure and which may significantly affect profit/(loss) between periods. Including EBITDA as a measure benefits investors in selecting between investment
alternatives.
EBITDA excludes some, but not all, items that affect profit/(loss), and these items may vary among other companies and not be directly comparable. The following
table reconciles EBITDA to net profit/ (loss), the most directly comparable IFRS financial measure, for the periods presented:
