TORM (One-pager): 5% quarterly dividend yield but with guidance reduction as product tanker rates ease
Read the latest TORM One-pager update following the Q3 2024 results. The One-pager includes a brief description of TORM, an update to the product tanker market, latest financials, valuation perspectives relative to a peer group, and outlines several key investment risks and key investment reasons.
TORM reduced its full year 2024 guidance in connection with its Q3 2024 results, as the product tanker market softened over the summer, and the anticipated rebound has thus far not materialized as many analysts and market participants anticipated. The new guidance is for a TCE income of USD 1,110-1,160m and EBITDA of USD 810-860m (previously TCE income of USDm 1,150-1,350, and EBITDA of USDm 850-1,050).
However, with relatively transparent rates TORM demonstrated continued operating results compared to its peer group and continued returning capital to shareholders via an interim dividend of USD 1.20/share. The interim dividend yield was around 5% at the time of the report.
