#### Our Fleet
As of March 31, 2025, our fleet consisted of 19 well maintained Suezmax tankers with a cargo lifting capacity of 1 million barrels of oil each. We only have Suezmaxes in our fleet and the vast majority of our ships are built in South Korea.

A few days after the first quarter, on April 4<sup>th</sup>, we took delivery of the 2016-built suezmax tanker, now named "Nordic Galaxy". On April 28<sup>th</sup> we took delivery of the sister vessels, the "Nordic Moon" also 2016-built from the same South Korean yard, Sungdong. The purchase price was $66 million for each unit and both vessels were financed with 50% lease financing.

As previously advised, we have sold the 2003-built "Nordic Apollo" and the vessel was delivered to its new owners on February 26, 2025. We have also agreed to sell the 2004-built "Nordic Castor" and the buyers plan to take delivery of the ship during June 2025. The combined price for these vessels was about $45 million. These two vessels were a part of the seven ships that previously was financed through CLMG/Beal Bank. Since the refinancing on February 6, 2025, these vessels are no longer collateralized.

After these transactions our fleet will count 20 suezmax tankers.

We take extra care to maintain our vessels to the highest standards for the safety of crew, cargo and the environment. The outcome of the inspections of our ships by oil companies ("vetting") reflects the good quality and maintenance of our fleet.

NAT has one of the largest fleets of Suezmax tankers in the world. In a capital-intensive industry like ours, careful maintenance of our ships and the timing & financing of expansion are key elements to ensure both our financial stability and our commitment to paying cash dividends.

#### Results for the first quarter of 2025
The first quarter of 2025 produced a Net income of $4.2 million, or an EPS of $0.02. The net income included a book profit for the sale of "Nordic Apollo", of $9.5 million.

The average time charter equivalent (TCE) for our fleet during the first quarter of 2025 came in at $24,714 per day per ship. This number is on a discharge-to-discharge basis. We currently have fourteen of our twenty vessels in the spot market.

For detailed information about our statement of operations (P&L), balance sheet, cash flow and reconciliation of certain Non-GAAP financial measures, we refer to tables on page 5 and 6 of this press release.

#### Financing
Our Net Debt (total liabilities less current assets) stood at $210.3 million, which equals $11.1 million per ship based on 19 vessels, as of March 31, 2025.

The details of our two financing arrangements are as follows;

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; 1) On February 6, 2025, we signed a new agreement with CLMG/Beal Bank for a five-year Senior Secured Credit agreement with improved main terms. The amended and restated facility was for a $150 million loan secured by 7 suezmax tankers, releasing 7 other vessels from the collateral. The proceeds were used to settle the remaining $72 million of the old facility and the balance improved our cash liquidity with 78 million. The total outstanding balance to CLMG/Beal Bank, was $148.8 million as of March 31, 2025, including current portion of the debt.

------

2) The 6 vessels financed through Ocean Yield had as of March 31, 2025, a total outstanding balance of $194.3 million, including current portion of the debt. We have after the end of the quarter taken delivery of the two 2016-built acquisitions "Nordic Galaxy" and "Nordic Moon". Both vessels were financed 50% through Ocean Yield. After the first quarter we also re-financed all three of the 2018-built vessels with Ocean Yield, at generally improved terms, for a total of $120 million. The financing will be effective from the end of May 2025, reversing the declared purchase options. The refinancing provides us with improved cash liquidity of $45 million. We now have a total of 8 vessels financed with Ocean Yield.

Current portion of long-term debt is now $76.1 million net of transaction costs. $20.7 million is related to the Ocean Yield financing and $7.4 million is related to the Beal/CLMG financing. An amount of $48.0 million pertains to the reclassification of long-term debt by Ocean Yield, associated with the declaration of the purchase options during the first quarter of "Nordic Aquarius" and "Nordic Cygnus".

Since our F-3 registration statement expired on February 14, 2025, we cancelled the old ATM with $17.2 million remaining capacity. On March 11, 2025, we filed a new F-3 registration statement and a new $60 million ATM. The F-3 registration statement and the prospectus supplement were made effective on March 31, 2025. We have not utilized any ATM offering in 2025 and have no plans to do so.

For the first quarter of 2025 a cash dividend of 7 cent ($0.07) per share has been declared. This is our 111<sup>th</sup> consecutive quarterly dividend declaration.

Payment of the dividend will be on June 26, 2025, to shareholders of record on June 12, 2025.

#### World Economy and the Tanker Market
There is no shortage of geopolitical uncertainty, but we continue to see high demand for oil and oil transportation. OPEC starting to increase their oil production is an important trend that is very favorable for the tanker market going forward. The same is the carrot and stick approach by the US towards sanctioned oil producers like Russia and Iran, with increased pressure in the sanctioned trade, pushing more business into the compliant oil trade. Should a deal be reached with these countries, this could make a large proportion of the shadow fleet obsolete. These are interesting dynamics for the NAT oil tankers. Seasonal variations will occur, but as we have seen so far, these last years, the trend supports future earnings at higher levels than in the past.

NAT in particular stands to benefit from the fact that the supply of Suezmax tankers is not excessive in a historic perspective. Environmental regulations, increased steel and production costs, and higher interest rates make investing in new ships quite challenging.

The world's Suezmax fleet (excl. shuttle, product & Jones Act tankers) counted 588 vessels as of March 31, 2025.

The 1st quarter 2025 saw the orderbook for new Suezmax tankers developing more or less flat with 97 vessels to be delivered over the next 4 years. To put this in perspective, before then end of 2027, there are 153 conventional suezmax tankers of 20 years of age, or older. Between today and the end of 2027, 89 new vessels will be delivered into the world suezmax fleet.

The world suezmax fleet will see 26 new vessels added to the fleet in 2025, 34 in 2026, 33 in 2027 and still only 4 new build orders are booked for 2028.

The available shipyard capacity for large oil tankers is low and leaving limited capacity to build additional Suezmax tankers with quality yards on this side of 2027.

All the above is good news for the short- and long-term outlook for our tankers. It is anticipated that the tanker markets will continue strong in the coming years.

------

The supply of tanker tonnage is inelastic in the short term. When there are too many ships in an area, rates tend to go down. When there is scarcity of ships, rates tend to go up. Short-term spot tanker rates may be expected to be volatile.

#### Corporate Governance/Conflict of Interests
It is vital to ensure that there is no conflict of interest among shareholders, management, affiliates and related parties. Interests must be aligned. From time to time in the shipping industry, we see that questionable transactions take place which are not in harmony with sound corporate governance principles, both as to transparency and related party aspects. We have zero tolerance for corruption.

#### Strategy Going Forward
The NAT strategy is built on expanding and maintaining a homogenous and top-quality fleet, leveraging on our industry network and close customer relationships with major oil companies and oil traders.

We are a dividend company with the objective of having a strong balance sheet and low G&A costs, enabling us to distribute free cash flows to our shareholders.

In an improved market, higher dividends can be expected.

Our fleet of 19 more or less identical vessels is a special feature of NAT that is particularly valuable to our customers.

NAT is firmly committed to protecting its underlying earnings and dividend potential. We shall safeguard and further strengthen this position in a deliberate, predictable and transparent way.

#### CAUTIONARY STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
Matters discussed in this press release may constitute forward-looking statements. The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides safe harbor protections for forward-looking statements in order to encourage companies to provide prospective information about their business. Forward-looking statements include statements concerning plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance, and underlying assumptions and other statements, which are other than statements of historical facts.

The Company desires to take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 and is including this cautionary statement in connection with this safe harbor legislation. The words "believe," "anticipate," "intend," "estimate," "forecast," "project," "plan," "potential," "will," "may," "should," "expect," "pending" and similar expressions identify forward-looking statements.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, our management's examination of historical operating trends, data contained in our records and other data available from third parties. Although we believe that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies which are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond our control, we cannot assure you that we will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections. We undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.

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 world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand in the tanker market, as a result of changes in OPEC's petroleum production levels and worldwide oil consumption and storage, changes in our operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for our vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, vessels breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other important factors described from time to time in the reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including the prospectus and related prospectus supplement, our Annual Report on Form 20-F, and our reports on Form 6-K.
