Udo Lange, Chief Executive Officer of Stolt-Nielsen Limited, commented:

"The breadth of our global logistics network enabled us to support our chemical customers through a period of considerable disruption due to the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Our businesses have been navigating the current uncertainty by taking a prudent, disciplined approach, which has resulted in broadly stable performance despite the market shock in the Middle East.

"Stolt Tankers saw an increase in activity with higher contract and spot volumes. Average freight rates were softer year-on-year in the quarter, and TCE was $23,372 per day, a decline of 11% compared to the second quarter last year.

However, during the quarter we saw a reversal of the downwards trend, as TCE increased month-on-month across the quarter. Stolthaven Terminals delivered a record operating profit, with utilisation rising to 93.4%, as new business and firmer storage rates more than offset increases in administrative and general expenses. At Stolt Tank Containers, the integration of Suttons is progressing well and contributed to shipment growth of 21% compared to the same quarter last year. However, $4.0 million of Suttons integration expense was incurred, and combined with the overall challenging market conditions resulted in a small operating loss for Stolt Tank Containers this quarter."
