**Øystein M Kalleklev, CEO of Flex LNG Management AS, commented:**

"We today release the fourth quarter and full year 2022 results for Flex LNG, and we are pleased to report that our Revenues came in at $98 million which was in line with guidance of $95-98 million. Net income was a solid $41 million with an even healthier adjusted net income of $55 million, reflecting the fact that we realized profits on part of our interest rate derivative portfolio prior to long term rates slumping due to lower US inflation numbers. This resulted in earnings per share and adjusted earnings per share of $0.78 and $1.02 respectively.

During the quarter we continued building attractive charter backlog with minimum 14 years added through an agreement with Cheniere to extend three ships which they already had on Time Charter from us. This agreement added additional earnings visibility to our company. Altogether, we added a total of minimum 38 years of backlog during 2022 through extension of Time Charters with existing customers and our first two fully open positions are now in 2027 which coincide nicely with the next wave of LNG volumes coming to the market in that period. We are therefore upbeat about the prospects for adding additional long term charter backlog for those two ships in due course.

We today also announce that our extensive balance sheet optimization program, which we initiated in November 2021, is now finalized with refinancing secured for the last three ships. As we have added significant charter backlog through 2021 and 2022, we have been able to utilize our de-risked chartering profile to replace all our existing debt with new debt financing with improved terms and conditions. In total, we have secured more than $2bn of new financing during this period and once all the debt is drawn and executed, we expect to release in total $387m in net cash proceeds from this process. This will add further liquidity to our already substantial cash balance. So, with the recent addition of charter backlog coupled with the refinancing process we will have a river of cashflow into a vast pool of liquidity which provides us with ample room to continue paying attractive regular dividends to our shareholders. Given our strong financial position, the Board has therefore decided to pay a special dividend of $0.25 per share in addition to the quarterly dividend of $0.75, bringing the dividend to $1.00 per share for the fourth quarter and in total $3.75 per share declared for 2022. This provides our investors with a solid income stream yielding about 11 per cent.

Going forward we do expect our financial performance to further improve as we are fully booked for 2023. We expect revenues to grow from $348 million in 2022 to around $370 million for 2023, driven by higher Time Charter Equivalent Earnings which we expect to be around $80,000 per day in 2023, an improvement from the $72,800 per day delivered in 2022. Revenues are expected to increase despite us carrying out our first five-year special surveys for four ships with associated off-hire during 2023. Lastly, I would like to extend my gratitude to all personnel both at sea and shore which have contributed to the results presented today."

**Business Update and Fleet Overview**

In November 2022, the Company signed extension options with Cheniere Marketing International LLP ("CMI") for the three LNG carriers *Flex Endeavour*, *Flex Ranger* and *Flex Vigilant*. Under the agreement CMI early declares the original 1+1-year optional periods for all the three vessels. Additionally, the Company and CMI have agreed to an extension of the existing Time Charter Agreements for *Flex Endeavour* and *Flex Vigilant:*

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;*•* The minimum firm extension period for *Flex Endeavour* is 1,300 days from Q1-2027 to Q3-2030. In addition, CMI has a 500-days extension option to be declarable in Q2-2024 for the period Q3-2030 to Q1-2032. In the event this 500-days option is declared, CMI will also have the option to extend *Flex Endeavour* for a further one-year period from Q1-2032 to Q1-2033.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• The minimum firm extension period for *Flex Vigilant* is 1,600 days from Q2-2026 to Q4-2030. In addition, CMI has a 200-days extension option to be declarable in Q3-2023 for the period Q4-2030 to Q2-2031. In the event this 200-days option is declared, CMI will also have the option to further extend *Flex Vigilant* for a two-year period from Q2-2031 to Q2-2033.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• *Flex Ranger* will now be redelivered to the Company in March 2027 after completing her original 5.5-year Time Charter with CMI.

In February 2023, *Flex Rainbow* commenced her 10 year fixed rate time charter, signed in June 2022, with a global trading company, in direct continuation of her existing charter.

The Company's fleet has zero open days in 2023 and 95% contract coverage in 2024, depending on charters' decision to utilize an extension option. In addition, we have one vessel exposed to the spot market via a variable rate long-term charter. As of the date of this report, the firm contract backlog for our time charters is 60 years, which may increase to 87 years with declaration of charterer's options. Our next open vessel will be in 2024 at the earliest, depending on charterers' decision to utilize the extension options.

We are required to drydock each vessel once every five years and we have four vessels scheduled for drydock in 2023 and a further two vessels scheduled for drydock in 2024.

The following table sets forth an overview of Our Fleet as of February 14, 2023:

As of December 31, 2022, the Company had total long-term debt of $1,714.7 million, with the current portion and non-current portion of long-term debt split as $95.5 million and $1,619.2 million respectively.

In order to reduce the risks associated with fluctuations in interest rates, the Company has entered into interest rate swap transactions, whereby the floating rate has been swapped to a fixed rate of interest. As of December 31, 2022, the Company had fixed interest rates on an aggregate notional principal of $691.0 million. The interest rate swaps with a fixed rate of interest based on LIBOR had an aggregate notional principal of $260.0 million and a weighted average fixed interest rate of 1.11% with a weighted average duration of 2.4 years. The interest rate swaps with a fixed rate of interest based on SOFR had an aggregate notional principal of $431.0 million and a weighted average fixed interest rate of 1.54% with a weighted average duration of 6.5 years.

In the fourth quarter 2022, the Company further amended and optimized the interest rate derivative portfolio, whereby the total notional principal has been reduced by $19.0 million from $710.0 million to $691.0 million and the

4 Flex LNG Ltd. Fourth Quarter Results 2022

![flexlogoa.jpg](flexlogoa.jpg)

total weighted average duration has been reduced from 7.1 years to 4.9 years. In the fourth quarter, the Company also terminated three interest rate swaps by settling their fair value for a total cash proceeds of $14.4 million.

In November 2022, the Company entered into an Equity Distribution Agreement with Citigroup Global Markets Inc. and Barclays Capital Inc. for the offer and sale of up to $100.0 million of the Company's ordinary shares, par value $0.10 per share, through an at-the-market offering ("ATM"). In December 2022, 409,741 ordinary shares were issued pursuant to the Equity Distribution Agreement, for aggregate proceeds of $14.5 million, with an average net sales price of $35.36 per share.

In November 2022, the Company filed a registration statement to register the sale of up to $100 million ordinary shares pursuant to a dividend reinvestment plan ("DRIP"), to facilitate investments by individual and institutional shareholders who wish to invest dividend payments received on shares owned or other cash amounts, in the Company's ordinary shares on a regular basis, one time basis or otherwise. If certain waiver provisions in the DRIP are requested and granted pursuant to the terms of the plan, the Company may grant additional share sales to investors from time to time up to the amount registered under the plan.

In December 2022, the Company and an Asian-based lease provider signed term sheets for a sale and leaseback agreement for the vessel, *Flex Rainbow*. Under the terms of the agreement, the vessel will be sold for a consideration of $180 million, with a bareboat charter of approximately 9.9 years back-to-back with the time charter for *Flex Rainbow* with an international trading house. The bareboat rate payable under the lease has a fixed element based on a fixed rate of interest and a variable element based on SOFR plus a margin. The Company has the options to terminate the lease and repurchase the vessel at fixed price in Q1 2028, in Q1 2030 and at the end of the charter in Q1 2033. In connection with the re-financing of *Flex Rainbow,* the Company will repay *Flex Aurora*'s outstanding amount under the $629 Million Facility, which will subsequently replace *Flex Rainbow* via an asset swap under the $375 Million Facility. The re-financing is expected to be completed in March 2023, subject to final documentation and customary closing conditions.

In January 2023, the Company entered into an interest rate swap agreement with a notional principal of $50 million. The swap has a fixed interest of 3.26% swapped for SOFR and a duration of ten years.

![flexlogoa.jpg](flexlogoa.jpg)

In January 2023, the Company signed sale and leaseback agreements with an Asian-based lease provider for *Flex Amber* and *Flex Artemis*, to re-finance their existing facilities, the Flex Amber Sale and Leaseback and the Flex Artemis tranche of the $629 Million Facility, respectively. Under the terms of the agreements, the vessels will be sold for a gross consideration, equivalent to the market value of each vessel, and net consideration of $170 million for the *Flex Amber* and $160 million for the *Flex Artemis*, adjusted for an advance hire per vessel. The agreements have a lease period of ten years and the Company have the option to extend for an additional two years. The bareboat rate payable under the leases have a fixed element, treated as principal repayment, and a variable element based on SOFR plus a margin of 215 basis points per annum calculated on the outstanding under the lease. The agreements include fixed price purchase options, whereby we have options to re-purchase the vessels at or after the third anniversary of the agreement, and on each anniversary thereafter, until the end of the lease period. The *Flex Amber* Sale and Leaseback was closed in February 2023 and *Flex Artemis*, which is subject to customary closing conditions, is expected to be closed in late February 2023.

In February 2023, the Company received credit approved term sheets for a $290 million term and revolving credit facility, for the vessels, *Flex Freedom* and *Flex Vigilant,* to re-finance their remaining tranches of the $629 Million Facility. The facility has an interest rate of SOFR plus a margin of 185 basis points per annum. The facility is split as a term tranche of $140 million and a revolving tranche of $150 million. The facility has a duration of 6 years, with the revolving tranche being non-amortizing and the term tranche amortizing reflecting an overall age adjusted profile of 22 years. The agreement is expected to be signed in the first quarter 2023 and is subject to final documentation and customary closing conditions.

**Results for the three months ended December 31, 2022 and September 30, 2022**

The Company recorded vessel operating revenues of $97.9 million for the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $91.3 million in the third quarter 2022. This increase in revenues is principally due to improved market rates, which increased revenues on our existing variable rate hire contract.

Voyage expenses, which include voyage specific expenses, broker commissions and bunkers consumption, were $0.2 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $0.4 million in the third quarter 2022.

Vessel operating expenses were $16.2 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $17.5 million in the third quarter 2022. The decrease in vessel operating expenses is primarily because of a decrease in crew costs as a result of fewer COVID costs and crew changes in the quarter and an overall decrease in technical expenses such as spares, services and stores.

Administrative expenses were $2.3 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $2.3 million in the third quarter 2022.

![flexlogoa.jpg](flexlogoa.jpg)

Depreciation was $18.2 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $18.2 million in the third quarter 2022.

Interest income was $1.1 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $0.6 million in the third quarter 2022. The increase is principally due to the increase in the deposit rates on cash and cash equivalents

Interest expense was $24.5 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $21.6 million in the third quarter 2022. The increase is primarily due to the increase in the floating rate of interest.

Extinguishment costs of long-term debt were $1.7 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $12.6 million in the third quarter 2022. In the fourth quarter 2022, the Company recorded direct costs of $0.2 million and recorded a write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.5 million due to the extinguishment of *Flex Resolute* tranche under the $629 Million Facility*.* In the third quarter 2022, the Company recorded direct costs $10.9 million and recorded a write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.7 million upon the re-delivery of *Flex Enterprise* and *Flex Endeavour* under the Hyundai Glovis Sale and Charterback.

The Company recorded a gain on derivatives of $4.9 million in the fourth quarter 2022, which includes an unrealized gain of $2.1 million. This compares to a gain on derivatives for the third quarter 2022 of $28.4 million, which includes an unrealized gain of $27.3 million. In the fourth quarter 2022, there was a decrease in the long-term forward interest rate curve which reduces the value of the Company's interest rate swaps. However, in the quarter, the Company amended the derivative portfolio reducing average duration and notional amount hedged, in addition to realizing three swaps, which had an offsetting effect to the change in the forward rate curve. In the third quarter, there was a steep increase in the forward rate interest curve which resulted in a more significant gain on the change in fair value of the Company's interest rate swaps.

The Company recorded a foreign exchange gain of $1.0 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to a loss of $0.9 million in the third quarter 2022. Foreign exchange gains and losses are primarily derived from fluctuations in the value of NOK cash balances against their USD value.

Other financial items were $0.1 million in the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $0.1 million in the third quarter 2022.

Net income for the fourth quarter 2022 was $41.4 million and basic earnings per share of $0.78, compared to a net income of $46.6 million and basic earnings per share of $0.88 for the third quarter 2022.

Adjusted EBITDA<sup>2</sup> was $79.1 million for the fourth quarter 2022, compared to $70.9 million for the third quarter 2022.

<sup>2</sup> Time Charter Equivalent rate, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income/(loss) and Adjusted earnings/(loss) per share are non-GAAP measures. A reconciliation to the most directly comparable GAAP measure is included in the end of this earnings report.

Adjusted net income<sup>3</sup> for the fourth quarter 2022 was $54.5 million and adjusted earnings per share of $1.02, compared to an adjusted net income of $42.2 million and adjusted earnings per share of $0.79 for the third quarter 2022.

The time charter equivalent rate<sup>3</sup> for the fourth quarter 2022 was $81,699 per day compared to $75,941 per day for the third quarter 2022.

**Results for the year ended December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021**

Vessel operating revenues were $347.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $343.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The vessel *Flex Vigilant* was delivered in May 2021 and therefore had more available days in the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to 2021, resulting in increased revenues. Additionally, a higher proportion of Our Fleet was on long-term fixed rate time charters in 2022 at improved rates when compared to 2021. Furthermore, this has an offsetting effect due to the reduction in vessels exposed to the spot market in 2022 compared to 2021, which can significantly reduce revenue volatility in seasonal quarters.

Voyage expenses were $2.5 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $3.3 million for the year ended December 31, 2021.

Vessel operating expenses were $63.4 million for the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $61.2 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. In the year ended December 31, 2022, there was an out-of-period adjustment of $2.9 million as further described in Note 2. With the exception of the aforementioned adjustment, there was an increase in operating expenses which is explained by the increase in Our Fleet from ten to thirteen LNG carriers between the period of January 2021 and May 2021, an increase in the overhaul cost for some of our vessels as part of their regular maintenance schedules.

Administrative expenses were $9.1 million for the year ended December 31, 2022 compared to $7.9 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in administrative expenses is due to: the increase in audit fees due to increased scope, including internal controls testing in 2022; increase in registrar fees due to compliance with new regulations; increase in legal costs in relation to the ATM program; and an increase in amortization of share-based compensation due to share options issued to management in the period August 2021 to May 2022. These were offset by a reduction in the cost of directors and officers insurance.

Depreciation for the year ended December 31, 2022 amounted to $72.2 million compared to $69.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in depreciation is due to the increase in Our Fleet from ten to thirteen LNG carriers between the period of January 2021 and May 2021.

Interest income was $2.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $0.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase is principally due to the increase in the deposit rates on cash and cash equivalents.

Interest expenses were $76.6 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $56.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2021. The increase in interest is due to the increase in the floating rate of interest, based on SOFR and LIBOR, and an increase in long-term debt.

Extinguishment costs of long-term debt were $16.1 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to $1.2 million in the year ended December 31, 2021.

In the year ended December 31, 2021, the Company recorded a write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.2 million.

The Company recorded a net gain on derivatives of $79.7 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, which includes an unrealized gain of $78.2 million and a realized gain on derivatives of $1.5 million. The positive development of interest rates in the year has resulted in this increase in the fair value of our interest rate swap derivatives. This compares to a net gain on derivatives of $18.4 million in the year ended December 31, 2021, which includes an unrealized gain of $24.4 million and a realized loss of $6.0 million.

The Company recorded a foreign exchange loss of $1.0 million in the year ended December 31, 2022, compared to a gain of $0.3 million in the year ended December 31, 2021.

**LNG Market Update**

The fourth quarter witnessed a very tight shipping market resulting in a blow up in LNG spot rates and even firmer term charter rates. Independent owners remain mostly on the side lines, as charterers have paid up to secure vessels on term periods in fear of being short shipping capacity during peak demand season. Independent owners were behind just 10 per cent of fixtures concluded the last three months. Term rates remain supported by newbuild prices, which have come up a further 15% through 2022 to reach the current price of approximately $250 million. Consequently, and coupled with rising long term interest rates, the 10-year charter rate is quoted at $103,000 dollars per day (kpdr); nearly 50% above the long-term average according to industry sources. The spot market has been softer at the start of the year due to seasonal effects, less congestion and lower cargo prices. This was further exacerbated by a relatively mild winter in Europe and delayed reopening of the Freeport plant in the US which did not re-start cargo exports before Mid-February 2023

With ramp-up of regasification capacity, the spread between the Dutch Transfer Title Facility (TTF) main hub price and LNG delivered DES Northwest Euorpe (DES NWE) currently trades in a range of $1.0 per million British Thermal Units (mmBtu) to $2.0/mmBtu. The Eemshaven terminal in the Netherlands started operations in September 2022, while December witnessed the commencement of two FSRUs in Germany and one in Finland, significantly improving import capacity to the North-European gas market.

Europe imported nearly 130 million tonnes of LNG in 2022, an increase of 54% compared to 2021. France increased its imports by 11 million tonnes (79%), the UK by 7 million tonnes (57%) and Belgium by 6 million tonnes (152%). High rate of LNG imports was a partial driving force ensuring strong natural gas inventory build in Europe. The natural gas storage was 83% full at the end of 2022, which is up from 54% at the end of 2021 and up from an average of 70% full at year-end for the last ten years. Total gas inventories were equivalent to 930TWh. EU gross import of natural gas was down 2% according to energy consultancy firm Bruegel, due to lower pipeline imports from Russia. Hence inventories would not have been able to sustain such an inventory build without a deep demand response. Europe consumption of natural gas in 2022 fell by more than 10 per cent compared to 2021. The primary driver behind reduced consumption during the summer was lower rate of natural gas sourced to the industry, while the October and November reduction was to a large extent due to lower household demand caused by milder winter.

Increased LNG imports to Europe was largely enabled by China reducing the appetite for LNG cargoes. China imported 64 million tonnes of LNG in 2022, a reduction of more than 20% compared to 2021, due to reduced economic activity following implementation of zero Covid-19 policies, increased domestic production, and increased reliance on pipeline gas imports from Russia. Japan and Korea also reduced their import of LNG, albeit only marginally, while India reduced by a more significant 5 million tonnes (-16%) as this is a price sensitive market.

The tug of war for LNG cargoes is likely to continue in 2023, driven by reversal of the zero Covid-19 policies in China which is also stimulating its economy. Forward curves as per start of February show JKM trading at a $1/mmBtu 2023-premium to LNG delivered to Europe.

Adding to already healthy inventory levels, Europe held another storage buffer by building up an armada of LNG vessels used for floating storage in the fourth quarter. During its peak towards the end of October, around 50 LNG vessels were used for floating storage, of which 50% carried cargoes destined for Europe, according to Kpler. The unwinding of floating storage normally results in a softer freight market unless this is compensated by increased ton/mileage. There are currently just three LNG vessels used for floating storage, thus on the margin nearly 10% of the fleet capacity has been made available over the last few months.

The ongoing global shift of LNG volumes, driven by Europe increasing its imports, have led to shorter sailing distances in the LNG trade. According to Fearnleys, tonne mile demand for 2022 was lower than for 2021 despite overall volume growth of 5%. Tonne-time, however, has been supported by lower sailing speeds and increased congestion.

For 2023, volume growth looks limited to small scale projects, most of which will commence towards the end of the year. Freeport has recently re-started exports after being closed since June 2022. According to IEA, LNG trade is expected to grow by 4% in 2023, which equates to 15-20 million tonnes. This compares to scheduled deliveries of 32 vessels according to Fearnleys. However, 65 per cent of the orderbook is expected to be delivered during the second half of 2023.

Newbuilding orders in 2022 came in at an all-time high of 169 vessels, according to Fearnleys, representing more than 25% of the current fleet. There are 64 and 85 newbuildings set for delivery in 2024 and 2025 respectively. New liquefaction volume will be limited in 2024, before an expansionary phase of new liquefaction trains come online from 2025 and onwards. This leaves a risk of loosening market balance in the next few years, however potentially remedied by growth in smaller-scale and flexible liquefaction solutions which have shorter time to market.

**Notes to the Interim Consolidated Accounts**

**Note 1: General information**

Flex LNG Ltd. (together with its subsidiaries, the "Company" or "Flex LNG") is a limited liability company, originally incorporated in the British Virgin Islands and registered in Bermuda as of June 2017. The Company's activities are focused on seaborne transportation of liquefied natural gas ("LNG"). The Company's ordinary shares are listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the "NYSE") and the Oslo Stock Exchange (the "OSE") under the symbol "FLNG". The interim financial information is unaudited.

**Note 2: Accounting principles**

**Basis of accounting**

The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("U.S. GAAP"). The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all the disclosures required in an annual report, and should be read in conjunction with the annual consolidated financial statements and notes for the year ended December 31, 2021 included in our Annual Report on Form 20-F, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") on March 17, 2022.

**Out-of-Period Correction**

In the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded an out-of-period adjustment to prospectively correct prior period accounting errors of $1.0 million and $1.9 million relating to the overstatement of our technical ship management fees within vessel operating expenses for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021, respectively. As a result of the adjustment, in the year ended December 31, 2022, we recorded a decrease in our vessel operating expense and a decrease to our other current liabilities of $2.9 million. In the year ended December 31, 2022, this adjustment increased the Company's net income by $2.9 million. We evaluated the errors for years ended December 31, 2020 and 2021 and concluded that the accounting errors were not material to the previously issued financial statements. We also evaluated the materiality of the impacts of the out-of-period adjustment required to correct the accounting errors and concluded that it was not material to the estimated income for the full fiscal year ending December 31, 2022 or its effect on the trend in earnings.

**Significant accounting policies**

The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company's annual financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021.

**Recent accounting pronouncements**

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04 (*ASC 848 Reference Rate Reform*), which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, which clarified the scope of Topic 848 in relation to derivative instruments and contract modifications. The amendments in this update are elective and apply to all entities, subject to meeting certain criteria, that have contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform. The amendments in this update are effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through to December 31, 2022. The Company has determined that reference rate reforms will primarily impact its floating rate debt facilities and the interest rate derivatives to which it is a party. As of December 31, 2022, the Company has not made any contract modification to replace the reference rate in any of its agreements and had evaluated that there was no impact to its consolidated financial statements.

Other recently issued accounting pronouncements are not expected to materially impact the Company.

**Note 3: Earnings per share**

Basic earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of ordinary shares outstanding during that period.

Diluted earnings per share amounts are calculated by dividing the net income/(loss) by the weighted average number of shares outstanding during the period, plus the weighted average number of ordinary shares that would be outstanding if all the dilutive potential ordinary shares were issued, excluding those purchased by the Company and held as treasury shares. If in the period there is a loss, then any potential ordinary shares have been excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share as their effect would be anti-dilutive.

The following reflects the net income/(loss) and share data used in the earnings per share calculation.

**$375 Million Facility**

In March 2022, the Company signed a $375 million term and revolving credit facility with a syndicate of banks. The facility is comprised of a $125 million term loan with a 6 year repayment profile and a non-amortizing $250 million revolving credit facility, resulting in an average age adjusted repayment profile of 22 years. The facility bears interest at SOFR plus a margin of 210 basis points per annum.

**Hyundai Glovis Sale and Charterback**

In August and September 2022, in connection with the Company's exercise of its call options in June 2022, the vessels *Flex Enterprise* and *Flex Endeavour* were re-delivered to the Company. The Company paid an option price of $137.0 million per vessel on settlement. At the date of settlement, the long-term debt for *Flex Enterprise* and *Flex Endeavour* had net carrying values of $131.0 million and $130.4 million, respectively.

Tranche A will amortize in full over a 6.75 year tenor of the facility. Tranche B will be repaid on the final maturity date, resulting in an average age adjusted repayment profile of 20 years for the facility.

**Resolute $150 Million Facility**

In December 2022, the Company entered into a $150 million term loan facility for the re-financing of *Flex Resolute* ("Resolute $150 Million Facility").

**Note 11: Fair Value of Financial Assets and Liabilities**

The principal financial assets of the Company at December 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, other current assets, receivables due from related parties and derivative instruments receivable. The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of payables due to related parties, accounts payable, other current liabilities, derivative instruments payable and secured long-term debt.

The fair value measurements requirement applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis. The assets and liabilities carried at fair value should be classified and disclosed in one of the following three categories based on the inputs used to determine its fair value:

Level 1: Quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;

Level 2: Observable market-based inputs or unobservable inputs that are corroborated by market data;

Level 3: Unobservable inputs that are not corroborated by market data.

The fair value of the Company's cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash approximates their carrying amounts reported in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of other current assets, receivables from related parties, payables due to related parties, accounts payable and other current liabilities approximate their carrying amounts in the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets.

The fair value of floating rate debt has been determined using Level 2 inputs and is considered to be equal to the carrying value since it bears variable interest rates, which are reset on a quarterly or semi-annual basis. The carrying value of the floating rate debt is shown net of debt issuance costs, while fair value of floating rate debt is shown gross.

The fair value of fixed rate debt has been determined using Level 2 inputs being the discounted expected cash flows of the outstanding debt.

The following table includes the estimated fair value and carrying value of those assets and liabilities.

There have been no transfers between different levels in the fair value hierarchy during the year ended December 31, 2022.

**Assets Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis**

The fair value (Level 2) of interest rate swap derivative agreements is the present value of the estimated future cash flows that we would receive or pay to terminate the agreements at the balance sheet date, taking into account, as applicable, fixed interest rates on interest rate swaps, current interest rates, forward rate curves and the credit worthiness of both us and the derivative counterparty.

**Concentration of Risk**

There is a concentration of credit risk with respect to cash and cash equivalents to the extent that substantially all of the amounts are carried with SEB (S&P Global rating: A+), Nordea (S&P Global rating: AA-), Danske Bank (S&P Global rating: A+) and DNB (S&P Global rating: AA-).

**(A) Reconciliation of Net Income/(Loss) to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA (Earnings before Interest Taxes Depreciation and Amortization)**

EBITDA is defined as net income/(loss) plus net interest expense, write-off of debt issuance costs, income tax expense and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude the items set forth in the table below, which represent items that we believe are not indicative of the ongoing performance of our core operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used by analysts in the shipping industry as common performance measures to compare results across peers. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not items recognized by U.S. GAAP, and should not be considered in isolation or used as alternatives to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activity or any other indicator of our operating performance or liquidity calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Our presentation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is intended to supplement investors' understanding of our operating performance by providing information regarding our ongoing performance that exclude items we believe do not directly affect our core operations and enhancing the comparability of our ongoing performance across periods. Our management considers EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to be useful to investors because such performance measures provide information regarding the profitability of our core operations and facilitate comparison of our operating performance to the operating performance of our peers. Additionally, our management uses EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures when reviewing the Company's operating performance. While we believe these measures are useful to investors, the definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA used by us may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

We present Adjusted EBITDA because Adjusted EBITDA eliminates the impact of items not associated with the ongoing performance of our core operations. To derive Adjusted EBITDA, we have excluded certain gains/losses related to mark to market of derivatives, termination of long-term debt and foreign exchange.

The table below reconciles net income/(loss), the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.

**(B) Reconciliation of Net Income/(Loss) to Adjusted Net Income/(loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(loss) Per Share**

Adjusted net income represents earnings before write-off and accelerated amortization of unamortized loan fees, foreign exchange gains/loss and gain/loss on derivatives financial instruments held for trading. Adjusted Earnings/(loss) Per Share ("EPS") represents earnings attributable to shareholders of the Company adjusted for unrealized gain/loss on derivatives\* as defined above, foreign exchange gains/losses, fees in relation to the extinguishment of long-term debt and write-off and accelerated amortization of unamortized loan fees and premium, divided by the weighted average number of shares outstanding. Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS 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 adjusted net income and adjusted EPS 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 gain/loss on derivatives, foreign exchange gains/losses and write-off and accelerated amortization of unamortized loan fees, 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.

Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered as alternatives to, or as substitutes for, or superior to, net income, operating income, earnings per share or any other measure of operating performance presented in accordance with US GAAP. 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. Adjusted net income and adjusted EPS 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 net income and adjusted EPS, 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 net income and adjusted EPS 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.

\*In the third quarter 2022, the Company changed the calculation of the Adjusted Net Income to deduct the changes in the assets/liabilities of derivative instruments from net income to arrive at adjusted net income. In prior quarters, the Company only deducted the gain/loss on derivatives from net income to arrive at adjusted net income. The Company has retroactively adjusted for this change in the prior period comparative calculations for adjusted net income. The Company has made this change in the calculations of adjusted net income due to the changing interest rate environment, reference rate change to SOFR and increased Company activities in the re-financings of long-term debt, which have resulted in the realized portions of gains/losses in derivatives becoming more material to the Company, whereas in previous periods this has not been material to the Company. The Company's management re-evaluated the calculation of the non-GAAP measure given the increasing materiality of realized gains/losses in the period to more accurately align with the Companies objective of representing the Companies underlying business and financial performance to investors in addition to closer aligning with peers.

**(C) Reconciliation of Total Operating Revenues to Time Charter Equivalent Income and Time Charter Equivalent Rate**

**(i) Time Charter Equivalent Income**

Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, we use Time Charter Equivalent ("TCE") income as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from a time charter. We define TCE income as operating revenues less voyage expenses. Under time charter agreements, voyage expenses, such as bunker fuel, canal and port charges and commissions are borne and paid by the charterer. Whereas under voyage charter agreements, voyage expenses are borne and paid by the owner. TCE income is a common shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a shipping company's performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot charters and time charters) under which the vessels may be employed between the periods. Time Charter Equivalent income, a non-U.S. GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with vessel operating revenues, the most directly

comparable U.S. GAAP measure, because it assists management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and in evaluating their financial performance.

While we believe these measures are useful to investors, the definitions of TCE income and the TCE rate used by us may not be comparable to similar measures used by other companies.

The table below reconciles Vessel operating revenues, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measure, to Time Charter Equivalent income.

**(ii) Time Charter Equivalent Rate**

Time charter equivalent rate ("TCE rate") represents the weighted average daily TCE income of our entire operating fleet.

TCE rate is a measure of the average daily income performance. Our method of calculating TCE rate is determined by dividing TCE income by onhire days during a reporting period. Onhire days are calculated on a vessel by vessel basis and represent the net of available days and offhire days for each vessel (owned or chartered in) in our possession during a reporting period. Available days for a vessel during a reporting period is the number of days the vessel (owned or chartered in) is in our possession during the period. By definition, available days for an owned vessel equal the calendar days during a reporting period, unless the vessel is delivered by the yard during the relevant period whereas available days for a chartered-in vessel equal the tenure in days of the underlying time charter agreement, pro-rated to the relevant reporting period if such tenure overlaps more than one reporting period. Offhire days for a vessel during a reporting period is the number of days the vessel is in our possession during the period but is not operational as a result of unscheduled repairs, scheduled dry docking or special or intermediate surveys and lay-ups, if any.

The table below reconciles Time Charter Equivalent income to Time Charter Equivalent rate.
