The movement of the BRL against the USD in 2020 resulted in a negative impact of US$6.3 million on the income statement in the year compared with a US$2.8 million negative impact in 2019. A currency translation adjustment loss of US$51.8 million (2019: US$11.1 million) on the translation of operations with a functional currency other than USD is included in other comprehensive expense for the year and recognised in other comprehensive income. The average USD/BRL exchange rate during 2020 was 30.6% higher than prior year at 5.16 (2019: 3.95). A higher average exchange rate negatively affects BRL denominated revenues and positively impacts BRL denominated costs when converted into our USD reporting currency. Profit Before Tax Profit before tax for the year decreased US$7.9 million to US$74.6 million compared to US$82.5 million in 2019. The decline in profit before tax is primarily due to the US$4.7 million negative movement of results from joint ventures, US$1.3 million in lower returns from the investment portfolio, US$7.4 million negative movement in foreign exchange losses on monetary items and a US$4.4 million reduction in other investment income. Prior year other investment income included a one-time adjustment on US$2.8 million in judicial deposits. Taxation Although taxable profit was US$7.9 million lower at US$74.6 million, (2019: US$82.5 million), the tax charge for the year at US$26.6 million was US$5.1 million higher than prior year (2019: US$21.5 million). This represents an effective tax rate for the year of 36.0% (2019: 26.0%) compared with the corporate tax rate prevailing in Brazil of 34%. The higher effective tax rate is principally due to higher net expenses not included in determining taxable profit. Net expenses not included in determining taxable profit were higher due to higher foreign exchange losses and losses at our joint ventures. 6 2020 % of 2019 % of US$ taxable US$ taxable million profit million profit Deferred tax items not included in determining taxable profit (i) (2.2) (3.0%) (1.2) (1.5%) Net expenses not included in determining taxable profit(ii) (7.9) (10.6%) (1.7) (2.1%) Net income/(expenses) incurred outside Brazil Total Charge/(credit) to the current period tax charge 8.9 (1.2) 12.0% (1.6%) 9.7 6.6 11.6% 8.0% (i) The principal deferred tax items not included in determining taxable profit are a deferred tax credit arising on the retranslation of BRL denominated fixed assets in Brazil, the deferred tax charge on the exchange losses on USD denominated borrowings and tax losses at our Brazilian subsidiaries not recognised in deferred tax. (ii) The main items not included in determining taxable profit are the tax effect of foreign exchange gains/(losses) on monetary items, the tax effect of the share of results of joint ventures and non-deductible expenses. A more detailed breakdown is provided in note 10. Profit for the Year Profit attributable to equity holders of the parent company for the year is US$38.7 million (2019: US$46.9 million) after deducting profit attributable to non-controlling interests of US$9.3 million (2019: US$14.2 million). Earnings per Share Earnings per share for the year was US 109.5 cents compared with US 132.5 cents in 2019. Cash Flow Net cash inflow from operating activities for the period at US$105.7 million was US$0.6 million lower than prior year (2019: US$106.3 million) mainly due to the lower operating profit in the year offset by improvements in working capital balances. Capital expenditure in the year at US$58.4 million was US$27.3 million lower than the prior year (2019: US$85.7 million) as capital expenditure in 2019 on the expansion of Wilson Sons Salvador container terminal contributed to higher spend. This work has now been completed. The Group drew down new loans of US$51.5 million (2019: US$113.6 million) to finance capital expenditure, while making loan repayments of US$25.7 million in the year (2019: US$85.9 million). Dividends of US$24.8 million were paid to shareholders (2019: US$24.8 million) with a further US$17.4 million paid to non-controlling interests in our subsidiary (2019: US$$17.4 million). Cash and cash equivalents at 31 December 2020 decreased US$5.7 million from the prior year end to US$63.3 million, (2019: US$69.0 million) of which US$53.8 million was denominated in Brazilian Real (2019: US$35.7 million). Wilson Sons held a further US$39.6 million in USD denominated fixed rate certificates which are classified as financial assets at fair value through profit or loss (2019: US$14.1 million) which are not part of the Group’s investment portfolio managed by Hanseatic Asset Management LBG and are intended to fund Wilson Sons.

The main movements in equity in the year were profits for the period of US$38.7 million, less dividends paid of US$24.8 million and a negative currency translation adjustment of US$29.8 million. The currency translation adjustment arises from exchange differences on the translation of operations with a functional currency other than USD. Net Debt and Financing All debt at the year-end was held in the Wilson Sons group with no recourse to the parent company, Ocean Wilsons, or the investment portfolio held by Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited. The Group’s borrowings are used principally to finance vessel construction and the development of our container terminal business. Borrowings are mainly long-term with defined repayment schedules payable over different periods of up to 18 years. At 31 December 2020 all the Group’s borrowings are denominated in BRL with 65% linked to the USD and the remaining 35% denominated in BRL. The Group’s borrowings denominated in BRL linked to the USD loans are fixed rate loans while BRL denominated debt is variable rate. A significant portion of the Group’s Brazilian pricing is denominated in USD which acts as a natural hedge to our long-term exchange rate exposure. In addition to borrowings, the Group has lease liabilities of US$157.9 million (2019: US$194.1 million). Net debt including lease liabilities at 31 December 2020 was US$397.7 million (2019: US$446.0 million) as set out in the following table: Debt Short-term Long-term Total debt Short term investments Cash and cash equivalents Net debt 2020 2019 US$ million US$ million 76.9 423.7 500.6 (39.6) (63.3) 397.7 58.6 470.5 529.1 (14.1) (69.0) 446.0 The Group’s reported borrowings do not include US$211.9 million (2019: US$220.3 million) of debt from the Company’s 50% share of borrowings in our Offshore Vessel joint venture.

Investment Process Manager selection is central to the successful management of the investment portfolio. Potential individual investments are considered based on their risk-adjusted expected returns in the context of the portfolio as a whole. Initial meetings are usually a result of: (i) a ‘top-down’ led search for exposure to a certain geography or sector; (ii) referrals from the Investment Manager’s global network; or (iii) relationships from sell-side institutions and other introducers. The Investment Manager reviews numerous investment opportunities each year, favouring active specialist managers who can demonstrate an ability to add value over the longer-term, often combining a conviction-based approach, an unconstrained mandate and the willingness to take unconventional decisions (e.g. investing according to conviction and not fearing short-term underperformance versus an index). 14 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Investment Manager’s Report Market backdrop MSCI World Value index was down by 1.2% with sub-sectors such as retail and Had you asked at the beginning of 2020 how stock markets would fair in the leisure falling sharply over the period. face of a global pandemic, one of the deepest post-war economic declines and with companies in many sectors on the brink of bankruptcy, it would not have The bond markets were also robust at the headline level with the global bond been unreasonable to expect responses of 20%, 30% or even 50% declines. index rising by 9.5% for the year.

Summary Whilst clearly not yet of out woods, especially as we sit here at home writing these comments in the midst of yet another lockdown, 2021 is looking more optimistic as the vaccine roll-out programme starts in earnest. The blend of better growth together with still abundant liquidity should serve to underpin risk assets and, as a result, we see little reason to deviate from our positive stance on equities and more cautious view on bonds. There are clearly risks to this scenario and, not least, the amount of good news already baked into markets as we enter the year will undoubtedly make them vulnerable to any disappointments. Most worrying would be anything that derails the expected rebound in economic growth. Be it delays in the vaccine roll-out programme or, worse, that vaccines are found to be ineffective in treating new variants of the virus, these outcomes would be extremely damaging to sentiment given the already considerable growth expectations built into asset prices. We continue to be optimistic on most markets for 2021 but as ever remain alert for any events that could cause market disruption.

In addition, By Order of the Board Malcolm Mitchell Company Secretary 12 March 2021 Wilson Sons has opportunities to mitigate any adverse impacts given the flexible cost base of some of their businesses. Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited In making the assessment for the investment portfolio, the Board has considered matters such as significant stock market volatility, changes in exchange rate and a significant reduction in the liquidity of the portfolio. The investment portfolio and cash under management at 31 December 2020 was US$310.3 million with outstanding capital commitments of US$45.3 million and no external debt. At 31 December the investment portfolio had; US$5.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and daily liquidity of $96.6 million. This available liquidity covers 200% of the capital commitment in a reasonable time frame, on the remote chance that there was a need to fund all of commitments at one time. The Directors’ assessment is that if severe but plausible downside scenarios were to crystallise, many of the individual risks disclosed would be likely to be confined to either Wilson Sons or Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited. The risk is to the valuation of the Group’s balance sheet rather than to the viability of the Group. Directors’ Responsibilities The Directors are responsible for preparing the annual report in accordance with applicable laws and regulations. The Directors are required by Bermuda company law to lay financial statements before the Company in a general meeting. In doing this the Directors prepare accounts on a going concern basis for each financial year which give a true and fair view of the state of affairs of the Company and the Group and of the profit or loss of the Group for that period. In preparing those accounts, the Directors are required to: • ensure suitable accounting policies have been adopted and applied consistently; 42 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600 Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited Opinion In our opinion: • Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited group financial statements (the “financial statements”) give a true and fair view of the state of the group’s affairs as at 31 December 2020 and of the group’s profit for the year then ended; and • the group financial statements have been properly prepared in accordance with International Accounting Standards in conformity with the requirements of the International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRS”) as issued by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). We have audited the financial statements of Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited (the “Group”) for the year ended 31 December 2020 which comprise: • We assessed management’s historical forecasting accuracy; • We considered whether the Group’s forecasts used in the going concern assessment were consistent with other information obtained during our audit; • We considered whether the headroom indicated by reverse stress testing scenarios could reasonably be eliminated and whether there were scenarios that were severe and plausible that could give rise to the forecast headroom being eliminated. Our assessment included consideration of: the impact and likelihood of investment commitments being accelerated, economic analysis for the global economy and the Brazilian economy and whether EBITDA and revenues could be significant reduced, whether additional unexpected cash outflows could arise in connection with the Group’s joint ventures, and the principal risks disclosed in the Annual Report; and Consolidated statement of comprehensive income for the year then ended • We considered whether through our audit procedures we had identified Consolidated balance sheet as at 31 December 2020 Consolidated statement of changes in equity for the year then ended Consolidated cash flow statement for the year then ended Related notes 1 to 37 to the financial statements, including a summary of significant accounting policies any commitments between the Company and its subsidiary Ocean Wilsons Investments Limited and Wilson Sons Limited.

We are independent of the Group in accordance with the ethical requirements that are relevant to our audit of the financial statements in the UK, including the FRC’s Ethical Standard as applied to listed public interest entities, and we have fulfilled our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with these requirements. • There would need to be a US$30m reduction in EBITDA in the review period to cause a breach in covenants or a US$91m reduction in cashflows from operating activities to exhaust liquidity for Wilson Sons Limited, absent consideration of mitigations actions that management could take. Based on trading performance during the pandemic during 2020 and the Brazilian recession of 2015 and 2016, management consider these possibilities to be remote. Based on the work we have performed, we have not identified any material uncertainties relating to events or conditions that, individually or collectively, may cast significant doubt on the Group’s ability to continue as a going We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and concern for the 15 month period to 31 March 2022. appropriate to provide a basis for our opinion.

Overview of the scope of the group audit Tailoring the scope Our assessment of audit risk, our evaluation of materiality and our allocation of performance materiality determine our audit scope for each entity within the Group. Taken together, this enables us to form an opinion on the consolidated financial statements. We take into account: size, risk profile, the organisation of the Group and effectiveness of group-wide controls, changes in the business environment and other factors such as recent internal audit results when assessing the level of work to be performed at each entity. In assessing the risk of material misstatement to the financial statements, and to ensure we had adequate quantitative coverage of significant accounts in the financial statements, of the 25 reporting components of the Group, we selected ten components covering entities in Bermuda, Brazil and Panama, which represent the principal business units within the Group. The table below illustrates the coverage obtained from the work performed: Full scope Specific scope Full and specific scope Specified procedures Remaining components Total Reporting components Full scope Specific scope Full and specific scope Specified procedures Remaining components 2020 % Group % Group % Group Number PBT Revenues Assets 6 4 10 3 12 25 134% 84% -20% 8% 114% 92% -16% 2% 8% 0% 72% 11% 83% 11% 6% 100% 100% 100% 2019 % Group % Group % Group Number PBT Revenues Assets 6 4 118% -24% 10 94% 5 9 -2% 8% 77% 12% 89% 2% 9% 75% 15% 90% 8% 2% Total Reporting components 24 100% 100% 100% Of the ten components selected, we performed an audit of the complete financial information of six components (“full scope components”) which were Changes from the prior year selected based on their size or risk characteristics. For the remaining four components (“specific scope components”), we performed audit procedures on specific accounts within that component that we considered had the potential In the current year, the components remained of similar relevance within the Group. However, to incorporate an element of unpredictability into our scoping we have included Wilport Operadores Portuários as a specific scope for the greatest impact on the significant accounts in the financial statements component for the 2020 audit. either because of the size of these accounts or their risk profile. The reporting components where we performed audit procedures accounted for 114% (2019: 94%) of the Group’s Profit before tax, 92% (2019: 89%) of the Group’s Revenue and 83% (2019: 90%) of the Group’s Total assets. For the current year, the full scope components contributed 134% (2019: 118%) of the Group’s Profit before tax, 84% (2019: 77%) of the Group’s Revenue and 72% (2019: 75%) of the Group’s Total assets. The specific scope components contributed -20% (2019: -24%) of the Group’s Profit before tax, 8% (2019: 12%) of the Group’s Revenue and 11% (2019: 15%) of the Group’s Total assets. The audit scope of these components may not have included testing of all significant accounts of the component but will have contributed to the coverage of significant tested for the Group. We also performed specified procedures on three locations over certain aspects of their accounts, such as Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic – audit logistics We worked proactively with management to agree a revised timetable to provide sufficient time for the potential impacts and judgements arising from COVID-19 to be considered fully, disclosures adequately assessed, and to reflect the extended time taken for management to complete the financial statement close process and to reflect the incremental time impact on completing our year end external audit fully remotely. The Group audit team performed the year end audit fully remotely, starting from 21 July 2020. We engaged with management throughout the audit, using video calls, share-screen functionality, secure encrypted document exchanges and data downloads to avoid any limitation on the audit evidence required. We were alert to instances requiring physical verification of original documents. We note that our component team in Brazil has had no restrictions in access to physical 44 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600sites and attended inventory counts physically, albeit the majority of their audit Key audit matters work was performed remotely.

These matters included those calls throughout the audit both internally and with management. We held which had the greatest effect on the overall audit strategy, the allocation of weekly calls with the Group CFO and Partner in Charge to ensure progress was resources in the audit and directing the efforts of the engagement team. These assessed robustly and audit matters arising were discussed at each meeting. matters were addressed in the context of our audit of the financial statements Additional calls were held with the Chair of the Audit Committee to consider as a whole and in our opinion thereon, and we do not provide a separate audit progress, timetable and matters arising. opinion on these matters. Involvement with component teams In establishing our overall approach to the Group audit, we determined the type of work that needed to be undertaken at each of the components by us, as the primary audit engagement team, or by component auditors from other EY global network firms operating under our instruction. Of the six full scope components, audit procedures were performed on one of these directly by the primary audit team. For the five full scope components and four specific scope components, where the work was performed by component auditors, we determined the appropriate level of involvement to enable us to determine that sufficient audit evidence had been obtained as a basis for our opinion on the Group as a whole. This year we were unable to visit our component team in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil due to the travel restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 outbreak. As a result we adapted our approach and replaced physical direction and oversight with virtual direction and oversight. The primary audit team replaced our usual face to face meetings and interactions with virtual video conference meetings. In addition, our reviews of audit work papers, which previously would have been carried out on location in Brazil, were performed virtually this year. In doing so we maintained our involvement in planning and agreeing the audit approach with the component team, directing their audit work and understanding any issues arising from their work. We also continued to meet with local management when appropriate, including attending closing meetings. The primary team interacted regularly with the component team during the various stages of the audit, reviewed key working papers and were responsible for the scope and direction of the audit process. This, together with the additional procedures performed at Group level, gave us appropriate evidence for our opinion on the Group financial statements. 45 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Independent Auditor’s Report to the Members of Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited Only Risk Our response to the risk Key observations communicated to the Audit Committee Revenue recognition risk • We walked through and understood the controls Based on the procedures performed we did not (2020: US$ 352.8m; 2019: US$406.1m) designed and implemented by the group related identify any evidence of material misstatement to revenue recognition, but we did not test the in the revenues recognised in the year.

Refer to the Audit Committee Report (pages 28 and 29); Accounting policies (Page 64); and Note 3 of the Financial Statements (pages 68 to 70) There is a risk of fictitious revenue recognition or inappropriate revenue recognition for towage, containers handling and port services. We have focused on unbilled revenue for the Brasco component for services rendered and not yet invoiced, due to its significance and the manual nature of the process. For the Saveiros, Tecon Salvador and Tecon Rio Grande components, due to the level of automation and lack of manual intervention in the recognition of services provided and not yet invoiced, our focus was on the risk that the posting of manual entries could give rise to the recording of fictitious revenues. Revenue recognition is presumed by auditing standards to be a fraud risk area, therefore we determined that this is a key audit matter. This risk has remained consistent with the prior year due to no significant changes in the business operations. 46 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Risk Our response to the risk Key observations communicated to the Audit Committee Risk of Impairment of Brasco CGU’s assets • We walked through and understood the controls Based on our assessment of the risk inherent (2020: US$39.2m tangible assets, US$7.4m intangible assets and US$5.8m lease rights; 2019: US$52.7m tangible assets, US$9.6m intangible assets and US$8.2m lease rights respectively) Refer to the Audit Committee Report (page 28); Accounting policies (pages 61, 62 and 66); and Note 13 of the Financial Statements (pages 76 and 77) gave rise to goodwill and intangibles on acquisition.

Entities with a functional currency other than US Dollars are included in accordance with the policies set out in note 2. 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements Basis of accounting The financial statements have been prepared in accordance with International Financial Reporting Standards (“IFRSs”) adopted for use by the International Accounting Standards Board (“IASB”). The financial statements have been prepared on the historical cost basis, except for the revaluation of financial instruments and share-based payments liabilities that are measured at fair value. The principal accounting policies adopted are set out below. Going concern The Group has considerable financial resources including US$63.3 million in cash and cash equivalents and the Group’s borrowings have a long maturity profile. The Group’s business activities together with the factors likely to affect its future development and performance are set out in the Chairman’s Statement, Financial Report and Investment Manager’s Report. The financial position, cash flows and borrowings of the Group are set out in the Financial Review on pages 5 to 8. In addition, note 35 to the financial statements includes details of its financial instruments and hedging activities and its exposure to credit risk and liquidity risk. Details of the Group’s borrowings are set out in note 24. The Group closely monitors and manages its liquidity risk and does so in a manner that reflects it structure, of two distinct businesses, being the parent company along with Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited, and Wilson Sons Limited. In performing its going concern assessment, the Board considered the 15 month period to 31 March 2022. Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited and Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited The parent company and Ocean Wilson (Investments) Limited have combined cash and cash equivalents of US$4.6 million and further highly liquid investments in excess of US$90.0 million as at 31 December 2020. They have no debts but have made commitments in respect of investment subscriptions amounting to US$45.3 million, details are provided in note 32. The timing of the investment commitments may be accelerated or delayed in comparison with those indicated in note 32. However, the highly liquid investments held are significantly in excess of the commitments. Neither Ocean Wilsons, nor Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited have made any commitments or have obligations towards Wilsons Sons and its subsidiaries and their creditors or lenders. Therefore, in the unlikely circumstance that Wilsons Sons was to encounter financial difficulty, the parent company and its subsidiary have no obligations to provide support and have sufficient cash and other liquid resources to continue as a going concern on a standalone basis. Wilson Sons Limited Wilson Sons has cash and cash equivalents of US$58.6 million and further highly liquid investments of US$39.0 million. All of the debt, as set out in note 24, and all of the lease liabilities, as set out in note 15, relate to Wilson Sons, and have a long maturity profile. The debt held by Wilson Sons is subject to covenant compliance tests as summarised in note 24, which were in compliance with at 31 December 2020 and are forecast to be complied with throughout the forecast period. The covenants are most sensitive to changes in EBITDA, debt service costs and asset values. The Board reviewed Wilson Sons’ 15-month forecasts for the financial year 2021 and the first quarter of 2022 which included analysis of cash flows and loan covenant compliance for the forecasting period. Budgets are compared with prior period actual results and previous forecasts so as to identify variances and understand the drivers of the changes and their future impact so as to allow management to take action as appropriate. Additional market analysis is performed to corroborate other key assumptions underpinning the forecasts. In preparing the forecasts consideration has been given to the commitments Wilson Sons has to its joint ventures in respect of their loan agreements as set out in note 19 and possible cash outflows these may give rise to, should the joint ventures breach their loan covenants. Cash flow and loan covenant compliance forecasts were then reverse stress tested to understand the headroom available before a covenant breach occurs or liquidity is exhausted. Consideration was then given as to whether the principal risks attributable to Wilsons Sons would give rise to severe downside scenarios that could cause loan covenant breaches or exhausting of liquidity, such as significant reductions in revenues. The possibility of these scenarios happening are considered remote when contemplating Wilson Sons’ financial performance during Brazil’s economic crisis in 2015 and 2016 and in the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020 and given the outlook for the global and Brazilian economies in 2021 and beyond. The potential impact of COVID-19 has been considered as part of the going concern assessment. Whilst the going concern assessment does not indicate it will be necessary, should it required, Wilson Sons has the ability to delay or cancel forecast capital expenditure in order to manage liquidity and or loan covenant compliance. 57 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) This assessment confirmed that Wilson Sons has adequate cash, other liquid resources and undrawn credit facilities to enable it to meet its obligations as they fall due in order to continue its operations during the going concern forecast period. Based on the Board’s review of Wilson Sons’ going concern assessment and the liquidity and cash flow reviews of the Company and its subsidiary Ocean Wilsons Investments, the Directors have a reasonable expectation that the Company and the Group have adequate resources to continue in operational existence for the foreseeable future. Accordingly, the Directors continue to adopt the going concern basis in preparing the Annual report and accounts. Basis of consolidation The consolidated financial statements incorporate the financial statements of the Company and entities controlled by the Company (its subsidiaries) up to 31 December each year (collectively the “Group”). The Group controls an entity when it is exposed to, or has the rights to, variable returns from its involvement with the entity and has the ability to affect those returns through its power over the entity. The results of subsidiaries acquired or disposed of during the year are included in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income from the effective date of acquisition or up to the effective date of disposal as appropriate. Where necessary, adjustments are made to the financial statements of subsidiaries to bring their accounting policies in line with those used by other members of the Group. All intra-group transactions, balances, income and expenses are eliminated on consolidation. Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the Group’s equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original business combination and the non-controlling interest’s share of changes in equity since the date of the combination. Where a change in percentage of interests in a controlled entity does not result in a change of control, the difference between the consideration paid for the additional interest and the book value of the net assets in the subsidiary at the time of the transaction is taken directly to equity. Foreign currency The functional currency for each Group entity is determined as the currency of the primary economic environment in which it operates (its functional currency). Transactions other than those in the functional currency of the entity are translated at the exchange rate prevailing at the date of the transaction. Monetary assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currencies are retranslated at year end exchange rates. Exchange differences arising on the settlement of monetary items and on the retranslation of monetary items are included in the statement of comprehensive income for the period. Non-monetary items that are measured in terms of historical cost in a foreign currency are not retranslated. On consolidation, the statement of comprehensive income of entities with a functional currency other than US Dollars are translated into US Dollars, the Group’s presentational currency, at average rates of exchange for the year. Balance sheet items are translated into US Dollars at year end exchange rates. Exchange differences arising on consolidation of entities with functional currencies other than US Dollars are classified as equity and are recognised in the Group’s translation reserve. Investments in joint ventures Interests in joint ventures A joint venture is a contractual agreement where the Group has rights to the net assets of the contractual arrangement and is not entitled to specific assets and liabilities arising from the agreement. Investments in joint venture entities are accounted for using the equity method. After initial recognition, the financial statements include the Group’s share in the profit or loss for the year and other comprehensive income of the joint venture until the date that significant influence or joint control ceases. Interests in joint operations A joint operation is a contractual arrangement whereby the Group and other parties undertake an economic activity that is subject to joint control which is when the strategic financial and operating policy decisions relating to the activities require the unanimous consent of the parties sharing control. The joint operation’s assets and any liabilities incurred jointly with other ventures are recognised in the financial statements of the relevant entity and classified according to their nature. The Group’s share of the assets, liabilities, income and expenses of joint operation entities are combined with the equivalent items in the consolidated financial statements on a line-by-line basis. The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of joint ventures and joint operations which are listed in Note 19. 58 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 66002 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Employee Benefits Short-term employee benefits Obligations of short-term employee benefits are recognised as personnel expenses as the corresponding service is provided. The liability is recognised for the amount expected to be paid if the Group has a present legal or constructive obligation to pay this amount as a result of past service provided by the employee and the obligation can be estimated reliably. Stock option plan For equity settled share-based payment transactions, the Group measures the options granted, and the corresponding increase in equity, directly at the fair value of the option grant. Subsequent to initial recognition and measurement, the estimate of the number of equity instruments for which the service and non-market performance conditions are expected to be satisfied is revised during the vesting period. The cumulative amount recognised is based on the number of equity instruments for which the service and non-market related vesting conditions are expected to be satisfied. No adjustments are made in respect of market related vesting conditions. Share-based payment transactions The fair value of the amount payable to an employee regarding the rights on the valuation of the shares, which is settled in cash, is recognised as an expense with a corresponding increase in liabilities during the period that the employee is unconditionally entitled to payment. The liability is remeasured at each balance sheet date and at settlement date based on the fair value of the rights on valuation. Any changes in the fair value of the liability are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income as personnel expenses. Defined health benefit plans The Group’s net obligation regarding defined health benefit plans is calculated separately for each plan by estimating the amount of future benefit that employees receive in return for their service in the current period and prior periods. That health benefit is discounted to determine its present value. The calculation of the liability of the defined health benefit plan is performed annually by a qualified actuary using the projected unit credit method. Remeasurements of the net defined health benefit obligation, which include actuarial gains and losses, are immediately recognised in other comprehensive income. The Group determines the net interest on the net amount of defined benefit liabilities for the period by multiplying them by the discount rate used to measure the defined health benefit obligation. Defined benefit liabilities for the period take into account the balance at the beginning of the period covered by the financial statements and any changes in the defined health benefit net liability during the period due to the payment of contributions and benefits. Net interest and other expenses related to defined health benefit plans are recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. When the benefits of a plan are increased, the portion of the increased benefit relating to past services rendered by employees is recognised immediately in the statement of comprehensive income. The Group recognises gains and losses on the settlement of a defined health benefit plan when settlement occurs. Other long-term employee benefits The Group’s net obligation in respect of other long-term employee benefits is the amount of future benefit that employees receive in return for the service rendered in the current year and previous years. That benefit is discounted to determine its present value. Any revision to the calculations is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Benefits of termination of employment relationship The benefits of termination of an employment relationship are recognised as an expense when the Group can no longer withdraw the offer of such benefits and when the Group recognises the costs of restructuring. If payments are settled after 12 months from the balance sheet date, then they are discounted to their present values. 59 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Taxation Tax expense for the period comprises current tax and deferred tax. The current tax is based on taxable profit for the year. Taxable profit differs from profit as reported in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income because it excludes or includes items of income or expense that are taxable or deductible in other years and it further excludes items that are never taxable or deductible. The Group’s current tax expense is calculated using tax rates that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. Deferred tax is the tax expected to be payable or recoverable on temporary differences and tax losses (i.e., differences between the carrying amounts of assets and liabilities in the financial statements and the corresponding tax basis used in the computation of taxable profit). Deferred tax liabilities are generally recognised for all taxable temporary differences except where the Group is able to control the reversal of the temporary difference and it is probable that the temporary difference will not reverse in the foreseeable future. Deferred tax assets arising from deductible temporary differences associated with such investments and interests are only recognised to the extent that it is probable that there will be sufficient taxable profits against which to utilise the benefits of the temporary differences and they are expected to reverse in the foreseeable future. The carrying amount of deferred tax assets is reviewed at the end of each reporting period and reduced to the extent that it is no longer probable that sufficient taxable profits will be available to allow all or part of the asset to be recovered. Such deferred tax assets and liabilities are not recognised if the temporary difference arises from goodwill or from the initial recognition (other than in a business combination) of other assets and liabilities in a transaction that affects neither the taxable profit nor the accounting profit. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured at the tax rates that are expected to apply in the period in which the liability is settled or the asset is realised, based on tax rates and tax laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the end of the reporting period. The measurement of deferred tax liabilities and assets reflects the tax consequences that would follow from the manner in which the Group expects, at the end of the reporting period, to recover or settle the carrying amount of its assets and liabilities. The Company offsets current tax assets against current tax liabilities when these items are in the same entity and relate to income taxes levied by the same taxation authority and the taxation authority permits the Company to make or receive a single net payment. In the consolidated financial statements, a deferred tax asset of one entity in the Group cannot be offset against a deferred tax liability of another entity in the Group as there is no legally enforceable right to offset tax assets and liabilities between Group companies. Current and deferred tax are recognised as an expense or income in profit or loss, except when they relate to items charged or credited directly to equity, in which case the tax is also taken directly to equity. Current tax is based on assessable profit for the year. Property, plant and equipment Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Depreciation is charged so as to write off the cost or valuation of assets, other than freehold land or assets under construction over their estimated useful lives, using the straight-line method as follows: Freehold Buildings: 25 to 60 years Leasehold Improvements: Lower of the rental period or useful life considering residual values Floating Craft: Vehicles: 25 years 5 years Plant and Equipment: 5 to 30 years The estimated useful lives, residual values and depreciation method are reviewed at the end of each reporting period with the effect of any changes in estimate accounted for on a prospective basis. Assets in the course of construction are carried at cost less any recognised impairment loss. Costs include professional fees and borrowing costs for qualifying assets. Depreciation of these assets, on the same basis as other property assets, commences when the assets are ready for intended use. 60 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 66002 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Assets held under leases are depreciated over their expected useful lives on the same basis as owned assets except when there is no reasonable certainty that the Group will obtain ownership by the end of the lease term in which the asset shall be fully depreciated over the shorter of the lease term and its useful life. Dry docking costs are capitalised and depreciated over the period in which the economic benefits are received which is the period of the next scheduled dry docking or the end of the vessel’s useful life. Docking costs are included in the floating craft category. An item of property, plant and equipment is derecognised upon disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected to arise from the continued use of the asset. The gain or loss arising on the disposal or retirement of an asset is determined as the difference between the sales proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. Subsequent expenditure is capitalised only when it is probable that the future economic benefits associated with the expenditure will flow to the Group. Borrowing costs Borrowing costs directly attributable to the acquisition, construction or production of qualifying assets, which are assets that necessarily take a substantial period of time to get ready for their intended use or sale, are added to the cost of those assets until such time as the assets are substantially ready for their intended use or sale. Investment income earned on the temporary investment of specific borrowings pending their expenditure on qualifying assets is deducted from the borrowing costs eligible for capitalisation. All other borrowing costs are recognised in the profit or loss in the period in which they are incurred. Goodwill Goodwill arising on an acquisition of a business is carried at cost as established at the date of acquisition of the business less accumulated impairment losses. Sale of non-controlling interest Non-controlling interests in the net assets of consolidated subsidiaries are identified separately from the Group’s equity therein. Non-controlling interests consist of the amount of those interests at the date of the original business combination and the non-controlling interest’s share of changes in profit, other comprehensive income and equity since the date of the combination. Intangible assets Intangible assets with finite useful lives that are acquired separately are carried at cost less accumulated amortisation and accumulated impairment losses. Amortisation is recognised on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives as follows. The estimated useful life and amortisation method are reviewed at the end of each annual reporting period, with the effect of any changes in estimate being accounted for on a prospective basis. There is no indefinite life intangible asset. Concession rights: 10 to 33 years Computer software: 3 to 5 years An intangible asset is derecognised on disposal or when no future economic benefits are expected from use or disposal. Gains or losses arising from derecognition are measured as the difference between the net disposal proceeds and the carrying amount of the asset and are recognised in the income statement when the asset is derecognised. Impairment The carrying amounts of the Group’s non-financial assets other than inventories and deferred tax assets are reviewed at each reporting date to determine whether there is any indication of impairment. If any such indication exists, then the asset’s recoverable amount is estimated. Goodwill is tested annually for impairment. An impairment loss is recognised if the carrying amount of an asset or cash-generating unit (CGU) exceeds its recoverable amount. The recoverable amount of an asset or CGU is the greater of its value in use and its fair value less costs to sell. In assessing value in use, the estimated future cash flows are discounted to their present value using a pre-tax discount rate that reflects current market assessments of the time value of money and the risks specific to the asset or CGU. For impairment testing, assets are grouped together into the smallest group of assets that generate cash inflows from continuing use that are largely independent of the cash inflows of other assets or CGUs. Subject to an operating segment ceiling test, CGUs to which goodwill has been allocated are aggregated so that the level at which impairment testing is performed reflects the lowest level at which goodwill is monitored for internal reporting purposes. Goodwill acquired in a business combination is allocated to groups of CGUs that are expected to benefit from the synergies of the combination. 61 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Impairment losses are recognised in profit or loss. Impairment losses recognised in respect of CGUs are allocated first to reduce the carrying amount of any goodwill allocated to the CGU and then to reduce the carrying amounts of the other assets in the CGU on a pro rata basis. An impairment loss in respect of goodwill is not reversed. For other assets, an impairment loss is reversed only to the extent that the asset’s carrying amount does not exceed the carrying amount that would have been determined, net of depreciation or amortisation, if no impairment loss had been recognised. Assets that are subject to amortisation or depreciation are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that their carrying amounts may not be recoverable. Inventories Inventories are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value. Cost comprises direct materials, spare parts and, where applicable, direct labour costs and those overheads that have been incurred in bringing the inventories to their present location and condition. Net realisable value represents the estimated selling price less all estimated costs of completion and costs to be incurred in marketing, selling and distribution. Financial instruments Financial assets and liabilities are recognised in the Group’s balance sheet when the Group becomes a party to the contractual provisions of the instrument. a. Financial assets Financial assets are classified at initial recognition as subsequently measured at amortised cost, fair value through profit or loss (FVTPL) and fair value through other comprehensive income (OCI). The classification of financial assets at initial recognition depends on the financial asset’s contractual cash flow and the Group’s business model for managing them. In order for a financial asset to be classified and measured at amortised cost or fair value through OCI, it needs to give rise to cash flows that are solely payments of principal and interest (SPPI) on the principal amount outstanding. This assessment is referred to as the SPPI test and is performed at an instrument level. The Group’s business model for managing financial assets refers to how it manages its financial assets in order to generate cash flows. The business model determines whether cash flows will result from collecting contractual cash flows, selling the financial assets, or both. Financial assets at amortised cost The following instruments have been classified and measured at amortised cost using the effective interest method, less any impairment loss: • Cash and Cash Equivalents/Investments: Cash and cash equivalents comprise cash on hand and other short-term highly liquid cash equivalents with maturities of less than 90 days which are subject to an insignificant risk of changes in value and Investments comprise cash in hand and other investments with more than 90 days of maturity. • Trade Insurance and Other Receivables: Trade receivables, insurance receivables and other receivables are stated at the present value of the amounts, reduced by any impairment loss. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a debt instrument and of allocating interest income over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash receipts (including all fees paid or received that form an integral part of the effective interest rate, transaction costs and other premiums or discounts) through the expected life of the debt instrument, or where appropriate, a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss include financial assets held for trading, financial assets designated upon initial recognition at fair value through profit or loss or financial assets mandatorily required to be measured at fair value. Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are carried in the balance sheet at fair value with net changes in fair value recognised in the statement of profit or loss. Changes in fair value are recognised in the profit or loss under “financial income” or “financial expenses”, depending on the results obtained. 62 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Impairment of financial assets Financial assets that are measured at amortised cost are assessed for indicators of impairment at the end of each reporting period. Financial assets are considered to be impaired when there is objective evidence that, as a result of one or more events that occurred after the initial recognition of the financial asset, the estimated future cash flows of the investment have been affected. Objective evidence of impairment could include: • Significant financial difficulty of the issuer or counterparty; • Default or delinquency in interest or principal payments; • It becoming probable that the borrower will enter bankruptcy or financial re-organisation; or • The disappearance of an active market for that financial asset due to financial difficulties. For trade receivables, the Group applies a simplified approach in calculation an allowance for expected credit losses. Details are disclosed in Note 22. For financial assets carried at amortised cost, the amount of the impairment loss recognised is the difference between the asset’s carrying amount and the present value of estimated future cash flows, reflecting the impact of collateral and guarantees, discounted at the financial asset’s original effective interest rate. The carrying amount of the financial asset is reduced by the impairment loss directly for all financial assets with the exception of trade receivables where the carrying amount is reduced through the use of an allowance account. When a trade receivable is considered uncollectible it is written off against the allowance account. Subsequent recoveries of amounts previously written off are credited against the allowance account. Changes in the carrying amount of the allowance account are recognised in profit or loss. Derecognition of financial assets The Group derecognises a financial asset only when the contractual rights to the cash flows from the asset expire or when it transfers the financial asset and substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of the asset to another entity. If the Group neither transfers nor retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership and continues to control the transferred asset, the Group recognises its retained interest in the asset and an associated liability for amounts it may have to pay. If the Group retains substantially all the risks and rewards of ownership of a transferred financial asset, the Group continues to recognise the financial asset and also recognises a collateral borrowing for the proceeds received. b. Financial liabilities Financial liabilities are classified as either “FVTPL” or “other financial liabilities”. Financial liabilities are classified as at FVTPL when the financial liability is either held for trading or it is designated as at FVTPL. Other financial liabilities are initially measured at fair value, net of transaction costs and then subsequently measured at amortisation cost using the effective interest method with interest expense recognised on an effective yield basis. The effective interest method is a method of calculating the amortised cost of a financial liability and of allocating interest expense over the relevant period. The effective interest rate is the rate that exactly discounts estimated future cash payments through the expected life of the financial liability, or (where appropriate) a shorter period, to the net carrying amount on initial recognition. There are no financial liabilities classified at FVTPL. Other financial liabilities • Bank loans: Interest-bearing bank loans are recorded at the proceeds received net of direct issue costs. Finance charges including premiums payable on settlement or redemption and direct issue costs are accounted for on the accruals basis to the income statement using the effective interest method and are added to the carrying amount of the instrument to the extent that they are not settled in the period in which they arise. • Trade Payables: Trade payables and other amounts payable are measured at fair value, net of transaction costs. Derecognition of financial liabilities The Group derecognises financial liabilities only when the Group’s obligations are discharged, cancelled or they expire. 63 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600 Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Provisions Provisions are recognised when the Group has a present obligation as a result of a past event, it is probable that an outflow of economic benefits will be required to settle that obligation and a reliable estimate can be made of the amount of the obligation. The amount recognised as a provision is the best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the present obligation at the end of the reporting period taking into account the risks and uncertainties surrounding the obligation. When some or all of the economic benefits required to settle a provision are expected to be recovered from a third party, a receivable is recognised as an asset if it is virtually certain that reimbursement will be received, and the amount of the receivable can be measured reliably. Revenue Revenue is measured at fair value of the consideration received or receivable for goods and services provided in the normal course of business net of trade discounts and other sales related taxes. Shipyard revenue Revenue related to services and construction contracts is recognised throughout the period of the project when the work in proportion to the stage of completion of the transaction contracted has been performed. Port terminals revenue Revenue from providing container movement and associated services is recognised on the date that the services have been performed. Oil & Gas support base revenue Revenue from providing vessel turnarounds is recognised on the date that the services have been performed. Towage revenue Revenue from towage services is recognised on the date that the services have been performed. Ship agency and logistics revenues Revenue from providing agency and logistics services is recognised when the agreed services have been performed. Interest income Interest income is recognised when it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the Group and the amount of revenue can be measured reliably. Interest income is accrued on a time basis by reference to the principal outstanding and at the effective interest rate applicable. Dividend income Dividend income from investments is recognised when the shareholders right to receive payment has been established. Construction contracts Construction contracts in progress represent the gross amount expected to be collected from customers for contract work performed to date. When the outcome of a construction contract can be estimated reliably, revenue and costs are recognised by reference to the stage of completion of the contract activity at the end of the reporting period, measured based on the proportion of contract costs incurred for work performed to date relative to the estimated total contract costs, except where this would not be representative of the stage of completion. Variations in contract work, claims and incentive payments are included to the extent that the amount can be measured reliably, has been agreed with the customer and consequently is considered probable. When the outcome of a construction contract cannot be estimated reliably, contract revenue is recognised to the extent it is probable contract costs incurred will be recoverable. Contract costs are recognised as expenses in the period in which they are incurred. When it is probable that total contract costs will exceed total contract revenue, the expected loss is recognised as an expense immediately. Construction contracts in progress are presented as part of trade and other payables and trade and other receivables in the statement of financial position for all contracts in which costs incurred plus recognised profits exceed progress billings and recognised losses. 64 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Leased assets The Group as a lessee For any new contracts, the Group considers whether a contract is, or contains a lease. A lease is defined as ‘a contract, or part of a contract, that conveys the right to use an asset (the underlying asset) for a period of time in exchange for consideration’. To apply this definition the Group assesses whether the contract meets three key criteria: • The contract contains an identified asset, which is either explicitly identified in the contract or implicitly specified by being identified at the time the asset is made available to the Group; • The Group has the right to obtain substantially all of the economic benefits from use of the identified asset throughout the period of use, considering its rights within the defined scope of the contract; and • The Group has the right to direct the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use. The Group assesses whether it has the right to direct ‘how and for what purpose’ the asset is used throughout the period of use. Measurement and recognition of leases as a lessee At lease commencement date, the Group recognises a right-of-use asset and a lease liability on the balance sheet. The right-of-use asset is measured at cost, which is made up of the initial measurement of the lease liability, any initial direct costs incurred by the Group, an estimate of any costs to dismantle and remove the asset at the end of the lease, and any lease payments made in advance of the lease commencement date (net of any incentives received). The Group measures the lease liability at the present value of the lease payments unpaid at that date using the interest rate implicit in the lease, if that rate can be readily determined. If that rate cannot be readily determined, the lessee shall use the lessee’s incremental borrowing rate. Generally, the Group applies the incremental borrowing rate. For a portfolio of leases with similar characteristics, lease liabilities are discounted using single discount rate. Lease payments included in the measurement of the lease liability are made up of fixed payments, variable payments based on an index or rate, amounts expected to be payable under a residual value guarantee and payments arising from options reasonably certain to be exercised. Variable lease payments not related to an index or rate are expensed as incurred. In accessing certain commitments related to the rent of buildings, the Group cannot readily determine the lease term as these can be terminated with no penalty every year. For these cases, the Group defines a standard lease term of 5 years. For machinery which the Group cannot readily determine the lease term, the Group defines the lease term as the useful life of the machinery. Subsequent to the initial measurement, the carrying amount of the liability is reduced to reflect the lease payments made and increased to reflect the interest payable. If there is a change in the expected cash flows arising from and index or rate, the lease liability is recalculated. If the modification is related to a change in the amounts to be paid, the discount rate is not revised. Otherwise, if a modification is made to a lease the Group revises the discount rate as if a new lease arrangement had been made. When the lease liability is revised, the corresponding adjustment is reflected in the right-of-use asset. When the right-of-use asset is reduced to zero, the amount is recognised in the statement of comprehensive income. The Group amortises the right-of-use assets on a straight-line basis from the lease commencement date to the earlier of the end of the useful life of the right-of-use asset or the end of the lease term. The Group has elected to account for short-term leases and leases of low-value assets using the practical expedients method. Instead of recognising a right-of-use asset and lease liability, the payments in relation to these are recognised as an expense in the statement of comprehensive income on a straight-line basis over the lease term. 65 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Finance income and finance costs Finance income comprises interest income on funds invested, fair value gains on financial assets recognised through profit or loss and gains on hedging instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. Interest income is recognised as it accrues in the profit or loss using the effective interest method. Finance costs comprise interest expense on borrowings, unwinding of the discount on provisions and deferred consideration, fair value losses on financial assets at fair value through profit or loss and contingent consideration losses on hedging instruments that are recognised in profit or loss. Critical accounting judgements and key sources of estimation uncertainty The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with IFRS requires management to make judgements, estimates and assumptions that affect the application of accounting policies and the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. Actual results may differ from these estimates. Estimates and underlying assumptions are reviewed on an ongoing basis. Revisions to accounting estimates are recognised in the period in which the estimates are revised and in any future periods affected. In the process of applying the Group’s accounting policies, which are described above, management has made the following judgements that have the most significant effect on the amounts recognised in the financial statements as mentioned below. a. Provisions for tax, labour and civil risks – Judgement In the normal course of business in Brazil the Group is exposed to local legal cases. Provisions for legal cases are made when the Group’s management, together with their legal advisors, consider the probable outcome is a financial settlement against the Group. Provisions are measured at managements’ best estimate of the expenditure required to settle the obligation based upon legal advice received. For labour claims, the provision is based on prior experience and management’s best knowledge of the relevant facts and circumstances. The amount of provisions for tax, labour and civil risks at the end of the reporting period was US$9.6 million (2019: US$14.6 million). Details are disclosed in Note 27. b. Impairment loss on non-financial assets – Judgement and estimation Impairment losses occur when book value of an asset or cash generating unit exceeds its recoverable value, which is the highest of fair value less selling costs and value in use. Calculation of fair value less selling costs is based on information available on similar assets’ selling transactions or market prices less additional costs to dispose of the asset. The value-in-use calculation is based on the discounted cash flow model. The recoverable value of the cash-generating unit is defined as the higher of the fair value less sales costs and value in use. The main non-financial assets for which this assessment was made are goodwill and the tangible assets of offshore support bases. Goodwill Goodwill is associated with two cash-generating units “CGU” (Tecon Salvador and Tecon Rio Grande) in Wilson Sons. The carrying amount of goodwill at the end of the reporting period was US$13.4 million (2019: US$14.1 million). In the prior year, an impairment was identified on the Brasco CGU and a charge of $12.7 million was recognized, reducing the goodwill of the Brasco CGU to zero. There was no impairment to the carrying value of goodwill in 2020. After completing annual impairment tests, the level of headroom for Tecon Grand Rio Grande and Tecon Salvadoris was significant. There is no plausible change in forecast assumptions to give rise to any impairment. Details are disclosed in Note 13. Tangible assets Due to the impairment loss recognised in 2019 attributed to offshore support bases and the level of headroom for the Brasco CGU, the Company expanded the impairment procedures for the tangible assets of this CGU. Details are disclosed in Note 13. 66 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) c. Valuation of unquoted investments – Judgement and estimation The fair value of financial assets and liabilities that are not traded in an active market is determined using valuation techniques. The Group uses a variety of methods and makes assumptions that are based on market conditions existing at each reporting date. Valuation techniques used include the use of comparable recent arm’s length transactions, reference to other instruments that are substantially the same, discounted cash flow analysis, option pricing models and other valuation techniques commonly used by market participants making the maximum use of market inputs and relying as little as possible on entity-specific inputs. Through the Investment Manager, the Directors have considered the valuation of investments in particular Level 2 and 3 assets and they consider that the position taken represents the best estimate at the balance sheet date. The amount of Level 3 assets at the end of the reporting period was US$99.1 million (2019: US$101.3 million). The amount of Level 2 assets at the end of the reporting period was US$189.1 million (2019: US$165.0 million). Details are disclosed in note 35. Changes in accounting policies and disclosures Several amendments and interpretations apply for the first time in 2020, but do not have an impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group. The Group adopted the following amendment early for the current year. Amendments to IFRS 16 COVID-19 Related Rent Concessions On 28 May 2020, the IASB issued COVID-19-Related Rent Concessions - amendment to IFRS 16 Leases. The amendments provide relief to lessees from applying IFRS 16 guidance on lease modification accounting for rent concessions arising as a direct consequence of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a practical expedient, a lessee may elect not to assess whether a COVID-19 related rent concession from a lessor is a lease modification. A lessee that makes this election accounts for any change in lease payments resulting from the COVID-19 related rent concession the same way it would account for the change under IFRS 16, if the change were not a lease modification. The amendment applies to annual reporting periods beginning on or after 1 June 2020. Earlier application is permitted and the Group adopted the amendment in 2020. This amendment impacted US$0.02 million in discounts obtained and US$0.2 million in payment deferrals from 2020 to 2021. Other amendments The following new or amended standards did not have a significant impact on the Group’s consolidated financial statements: Amendments to IFRS 3 The amendments to IFRS3 clarify that, to be considered a business, an integrated set of activities and assets must include, at least, an inflow of funds and a substantive process that together contribute significantly to the capacity to generate the outflow of funds. Moreover, it clarified that a business can exist without including all the inflows of funds and processes necessary to create outflows of funds. These amendments had no impact on the Company’s individual and consolidated financial statements but may impact future periods if the Group enters into any business combination. Amendments to IFRS 7, IFRS 9 and IAS 39 Interest Rate Benchmark Reform The amendments to IFRS 9 and IAS 39 Financial Instruments: Recognition and Measurement provide a number of reliefs, which apply to all hedging relationships that are directly affected by interest rate benchmark reform. A hedging relationship is affected if the reform gives rise to uncertainty about the timing and/or amount of benchmark-based cash flows of the hedged item or the hedging instrument. These amendments have no impact on the consolidated financial statements of the Group as it does not have any interest rate hedge relationships. Amendments to IAS 1 and IAS 8 Definition of Material The amendments provide a new definition of material that states, “information is material if omitting, misstating or obscuring it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions that the primary users of general purpose financial statements make on the basis of those financial statements, which provide financial information about a specific reporting entity.” The amendments clarify that materiality will depend on the nature or magnitude of information, either individually or in combination with other information, in the context of the financial statements. A misstatement of information is material if it could reasonably be expected to influence decisions made by the primary users. These amendments had no impact on the consolidated financial statements of, nor is there expected to be any future impact to the Group. Conceptual Framework for Financial Reporting issued on 29 March 2018. The revised standard outlines some new concepts, provides updated definitions and recognition criteria for assets and liabilities and clarifies some important concepts. These changes did not affect the financial statements of the Company. 67 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600 Notes to the Accounts 2 Significant accounting policies and critical accounting judgements (continued) Standards issued but not yet effective The Group has listed all new standards and interpretations issued, but not yet effective.

Impairment Test of Cash Generating Units (CGUs) 13.1 Tecon Rio Grande and Tecon Salvador The cash flows of these CGUs are derived from operating budgets, historical and prospective data, and include the following forecast assumptions: (i) revenue; (ii) costs and expenses; (iii) investments; (v) discount rate. The key assumptions used in determining value in use relate to growth rate, discount rate and inflation rate. Further assumptions include sales and operating margins which are based on past experience taking into account the effect of known, or likely, changes in market or operating conditions. Projected volumes for Tecon Rio Grande and Tecon Salvador were based on the expected performance of the Brazilian economy until reaching operating capacity for each. The discount rate was based on weighted average cost of captal (“WACC”) , whereas the growth rate for projection, is based on the inflation rate only after reaching operating capacity. The estimated average growth rate used does not exceed the historical average for Tecon Rio Grande and Tecon Salvador and the discount rate used in 2020 was 8.4% (9.3% on 31 December 2019). Review tests were performed on these CGUs and concluded that there are not factors that indicate impairment, since the recoverable amount significantly exceeded the book value. 13.2 Offshore support bases In 2019 the Company recognised an impairment loss of US$13.3 million (R$ 53.5 million), of which US$12.8 million (R$ 51.6 million) related to Goodwill and the remaining against other intangible assets. Goodwill for this CGU was then fully written-off. Due to the impairment loss recognised in 2019 attributed to offshore support bases, the Company expanded the impairment procedures for the tangible assets of this CGU. The Company determines its cash flow bases on the budgets and historical and prospective data, including the following main assumptions: (i) revenue; (ii) costs and expenses; (iii) investments; (iv) projection period; and (v) discount rates based on weighted average cost of capital (“WACC”). (i) Revenue Occupancy rate The projected quantity of vessel turnarounds considers the estimated pace of growth in oil & gas offshore exploration and production, based on data from Brazilian Petroleum National Agency (ANP), Energy Research Agency (EPE, subordinated to Ministry of Energy), Oil Companies’ releases and specialised industry reports. In the market reports reviewed there is a consensus that in the next 10 years there will be significant increases in oil exploration and production activities in Brazil. Based on the specialised industry reports, management estimates that the oil companies will undertake an estimated 6,729 berthing operations per year until 2024 for the exploration blocks and oil fields located in the Company’s area of influence (southern region of Campos Basin and Santos Basin), thus representing an increase of 1,840 annual berths compared to 2019 (4,888 berths/year). The Company predicts it will sucessfully capture part of the above metioned increase in demand for berthing space considering the competitive landscape in the service Guanabara Bay area and expects to reach from 2026 onwards operating levels attained prior to the economic and oil and gas market crises. In forecasting expected growth over the period to 2024, the Company has taken account of current tender activity and expected tender activity to come, and has identified those projects it expects to secure based on an assessment of competitive advantage. The average growth rate is 23% each year until 2024. Longer term growth rates after 2024 are aligned with the expected growth in the Brazilian oil and gas sector, and the region in which the Company operates which gives raise to an average growth rate after 2024 of 15% per annum. Due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the resultant oil price shock during 2020 a number of Oil Companies have sought postponement of their start date for exploration and development of oil fields in Brazil and the ANP has granted concessions in this regard. The Company has made adjustments to their previous forecasts to take account of new information available, principally by amending the cashflow by delaying them by one year to take account of the impacts of the economic crises and the above mentioned postponements. Sales prices In the short term (2021-2023), the Company’s financial projections do not consider an increase with regard to the pricing currently in place. For the long term (2024-2030), the projections consider the unit price of 2023 adjusted for inflation over time. 76 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660013. Impairment Test of Cash Generating Units (CGUs) (continued) Stress testing The Company prepared a stress testing considering the following scenarios taking account of the different growth rates forecast to 2024 and longer term: • Revenue aggregate: the revenue would have to decrease by 5.3% each year (not compounded) in the model to achieve break even. • Revenue short term (2021-2023): the revenue would have to decrease 12.0% (not compounded) from 2021 to 2023 in the model to achieve break even. The short term revenue is a sensitive assumption to be extremely dependent from the results of tenders submitted and tenders expected to be submitted that the Company expects to have a high change of securing. Revenue growth rates below those outlined in the above sensitivity would lead to impairment. (ii) Costs and expenses For all years forecast, variable costs are forecast to increase in line with forecast increases in activity. For the period to 2023, the Company’s forecasts its fixed costs will not increase above current levels. For the long term (2024-2030), the projections are adjusted for inflation over time. (iii) Investments As per IAS 36, the company is required to include in the estimated cash outflows only the investment required to maintain the level of economic rewards expected from the assets in their current conditions. The Company did not include any expansion investment in the model. (iv) Projection period The Company has prepared the cash flow projection considering a period over a 10 year period plus a perpetuity. The oil and gas industry life cycle is at least 10 years, due to the life cycle of investment in an oil field from exploration to sustainable production. The company assumes a growth in the perpetuity calculation limited to inflation which is predicted to be 4% per annum. (v) Discount rates The discount rate represents the current market assessment of the risks specific to the CGU, taking into consideration the time value of money and individual risks of the underlying assets that have not been incorporated in the cash flow estimates. The discount rate calculation is based on the specific circumstances of the CGU and its operating segments and is a weighted average cost of capital (WACC). The WACC takes into account both cost of debt and equity. The cost of equity is derived from the expected return on investment by potential investors. The cost of debt is based on an assessment of the interest-bearing borrowings the CGU is able to borrow in the market. Segment-specific risk is incorporated by applying beta factors. The beta factors are evaluated annually based on publicly available market data. The Company has determined the discount rate using reputable sources to capture macroeconomic assumptions and information from comparator companies in the oilfield and maritime services sector, in which Brasco operates. The discount rate used was 11.3% (14.5% as at 31 December 2019). The reduction in discount rate from 2019 to 2020 was principally driven by a reduction of cost of equity, due to the macroeconomic assumptions update over the last twelve months (i.e. decrease in risk free rate, unleveraged beta, Country Risk Premium, reduction in Equity Risk Premium and amendments to the debt/equity ratio). For 2019, the Company included a risk premium in the WACC recognising the risks inherent in the forecast cashflows. The company has not done so this year, as it considers its forecast cashflows are not as inhrently risky compared to the prior years forecasts. Stress testing The discount rate would have to increase by 0.9% (i.e. to 12.2%) for the impairment model to achieve break even. The Company, having carried out the impairment tests above, concluded that no impairment needed to be recorded, since the recoverable amount exceeded the book value. The carrying value of Brasco’s assets of US$46.3 million (R$240.0 million) was lower than the the value in use of US$57.2 million (R$296.8 million). In addition, the Company reversed the impairment of US$0.4 million (R$2.0 million) related to intangible assets other than goodwill recognised in 2019. However, according to the stress testing scenarios above, the Company would need to record an impairment losses if at least one of this following scenarios was to occur in isolation: • Revenue aggregate would have to decrease by more than 5.3% each year; • Revenue short term (2021 – 2023) would have to decrease by more than 12.0% each year; or • Discount rate would have to increase by more than 0.9%. 77 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 14 Goodwill Carrying Value: At 1 January 2019 Impairment Exchange differences At 1 January 2020 Impairment Exchange differences At 31 December 2020 Carrying amount 31 December 2020 31 December 2019 Tecon Rio Grande Tecon Salvador US$’000 US$’000 11,728 2,480 – (118) 11,610 – (661) 10,949 10,949 11,609 – – 2,480 – – 2,480 2,480 2,480 Brasco US$’000 13,307 (12,536) (770) – – – – – – Total US$’000 27,515 (12,536) (889) 14,090 – (661) 13,429 13,429 14,090 The goodwill associated with each cash-generating unit “CGU” (Tecon Salvador and Tecon Rio Grande) is attributed to the Port Terminals segment. The movement in goodwill balances in the year is due to the depreciation of the Brazilian Real against the US Dollar. Each CGU is assessed for impairment annually and whenever there is an indication of impairment. The carrying value of goodwill has been assessed with reference to its value in use reflecting the projected discounted cash flows of each CGU to which goodwill has been allocated. In 2019, as a result of impairment test it was concluded that carrying value of Brasco’s assets of US$83.6 million (R$337.2 million) exceeded the value in use of US$70.4 million (R$283.7 million). As a result of this analysis, an impairment charge of US$13.3 million (R$53.5 million) was recognised in 2019, of which US$12.5 million (R$51.6 million) against goodwill and the remaining against other intangible assets.

The movement in Equity shown above is not reflective of the share of loss of the joint ventures, as in determining the share of the (loss)/profit for the year, the result is impacted by the elimination of profit margin on construction/dry-docking contracts amounting to US$3.7 million (2019: US$3.7 million).

A 50% share of the loan agreements amount to US$170.7 million (2019: US$176.5 million). Wilson Sons Ultratug Particpações S.A. subsidiary’s loan with Banco do Brasil is guaranteed by a pledge over the financed supply vessels. The security package also includes a standby letter of credit issued by Banco de Crédito e Inversiones – Chile for part of the debt balance, assignment of Petrobras’ long-term contracts and a corporate guarantee issued by Inversiones Magallanes Ltda – Chile. A cash reserve account, accounted for under long-term investments and funded with US$2.1 million, is to be maintained until full repayment of the loan agreement. A 50% share of the loan agreements amount to US$25.7 million (2019: US$28.2 million). The loan that Atlantic Offshore S.A. has with Deutsche Verkehrs-Bank and Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale Trade for the financing of the offshore support vessel “Pardela” is guaranteed by a pledge over the vessel, the shares of Atlantic Offshore S.A. and a corporate guarantee for half of the credit from Wilson Sons de Administração e Comércio Ltda. Remolcadores Ultratug Ltda, the 50% partner in the business, guarantees the other half of the loan. A 50% share of the loan agreements amount to US$10.7 million (2019: US$11.7 million). Covenants On 31 December 2020, Wilson, Sons Ultratug Participações S.A.’s subsidiary was not in compliance with one of the covenants ratios. On the assumption of a non-attainment, the joint venture’s subsidiary has to increase its capital, within a year, to reach US$5.8 million. As the capital will be increased, management’s understanding is that there is no breach of a clause or event that prompts negotiation or a waiver letter from Banco do Brasil. Atlantic Offshore S.A. has to comply with specific financial covenants on its two loan agreements with Deutsche Verkehrs-Bank and Norddeutsche Landesbank Girozentrale Trade. At 31 December 2020 the subsidiary was in compliance with all loan agreement clauses. There are no other capital commitments for any of the joint ventures or joint operations. Provisions for tax, labour and civil risks In the normal course of business in Brazil, the joint ventures remain exposed to numerous local legal claims. It is the joint ventures’ policy to vigorously contest such claims, many of which appear to have little merit, and to manage such claims through their legal counsel. Wilson, Sons Ultratug Participações S.A. booked provisions related to labour claims amounting to US$0.1 million, whose probability of loss was estimated as probable. In addition to the cases for which the joint ventures have made a provision, there are other tax, civil and labour disputes amounting to US$6.1 million (2019: US$15.5 million) whose probability of loss was estimated by legal counsel as possible. The breakdown of aggregated possible losses is as follows: Tax cases Labour claims Civil cases Total 31 December 31 December 2020 US$’000 5,611 505 4 6,120 2019 US$’000 8,304 7,192 6 15,502 87 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 19 Joint ventures (continued) Guarantees (continued) Below is the reconciliation of the investment in joint ventures recognised in the balance sheet including the impact of profit recognised by joint ventures: At 1 January 2019 Share of result of joint ventures Capital increase Elimination on construction contracts Post-employment benefits Derivatives Exchange movements At 1 January 2020 Share of result of joint ventures Capital increase Elimination on construction contracts Post-employment benefits Derivatives Exchange movements At 31 December 2020 20 Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss At 1 January Additions, at cost Disposals, at market value Increase in fair value of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss Profit on disposal of financial assets at fair value through profit or loss At 31 December Ocean Wilsons (Investment) Limited Portfolio Wilson Sons Limited Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss held at 31 December Wilson Sons Limited US$’000 26,528 564 3,527 156 (51) (380) (10) 30,334 (4,142) 23 45 24 (36) (63) 26,185 2020 US$’000 2019 US$’000 298,839 63,723 (45,154) 29,055 1,001 347,464 307,874 39,590 347,464 287,298 35,489 (55,882) 24,438 7,497 298,840 284,763 14,077 298,840 The Wilson Sons investments are held and managed separately from the Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited portfolio and consist of US Dollar denominated depository notes.

Financial assets at fair value through profit or loss above represent investments in listed equity securities, funds and unquoted equities that present the Group with opportunity for return through dividend income and capital appreciation. Included in financial assets at fair value through profit or loss are open ended funds whose shares may not be listed on a recognised stock exchange but are redeemable for cash at the current net asset value at the option of the Group. They have no fixed maturity or coupon rate. The fair values of these securities are based on quoted market prices where available. Where quoted market prices are not available, fair values are determined by third parties using various valuation techniques that include inputs for the asset or liability that are not based on observable market data (unobservable inputs). 88 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660021 Inventories Operating materials Raw materials for third party vessel construction Total Inventories are expected to be recovered in less than one year and there were no obsolete items (2019: none). 22 Trade and other receivables Trade and other receivables Other trade receivables Total other non-current trade receivables Amount receivable for the sale of services Allowance for bad debts Total current trade receivables Prepayments Insurance claim receivable Other receivables Total other current trade receivables Total current trade and other receivables Ageing of trade receivables Current From 0 – 30 days From 31 – 90 days From 91 – 180 days More than 180 days Total 31 December 31 December 2020 US$’000 9,404 2,360 11,764 2019 US$’000 9,228 1,279 10,507 31 December 31 December 2020 US$’000 9 9 41,152 (554) 40,598 4,252 995 1,953 7,200 2019 US$’000 354 354 47,991 (837) 47,154 6,452 1,972 1,165 9,589 47,807 56,743 31 December 31 December 2020 US$’000 34,561 4,800 852 197 742 2019 US$’000 37,146 7,641 1,434 694 1,076 41,152 47,991 Generally, interest of 1% per month plus a 2% penalty is charged on overdue balances. Allowances for bad debts are recognised as a reduction of receivables and are recognised whenever a loss is identified. The Group recognizes an allowance for bad debts taking into account an expected credit loss model that involves historical evaluation of effective losses over billing cycles. The period of review is 3.5 years, reassessed every 180 days. The measurement of the default rate considers the recoverability of receivables and will apply according to the payment profile of debtors. Debts are written off when a customer has gone into liquidation or there is an adjustment in a receivable balance as a result of a judicial proceeding. The Group will calibrate, when appropriate, the matrix to adjust the historical credit loss experience with forward-looking information. The provision matrix is disclosed in note 35. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company has reviewed the variables that make up the methodology of measurement of estimated losses. There has been no increase in customer default rate due to the outbreak. Additionally, the Company created a credit committee to monitor and, if necessary, propose payment terms to those customers with credit risk.

No deferred tax asset has been recognised in respect of US$6.9 million (2019: US$6.3 million) due to the unpredictability of future profit streams. In Brazil, a tax asset of one entity in a group cannot be offset against a tax liability of another entity in the group as there is no legally enforceable right to offset tax assets and liabilities between group companies. Retranslation of non-current asset valuation deferred tax arises on Brazilian property, plant and equipment held in US dollar functional currency businesses. Deferred tax is calculated on the difference between the historical US Dollar balances recorded in the Group’s accounts and the Brazilian Real balances used in the Group’s Brazilian tax calculations. Deferred tax on exchange variance on loans arises from exchange gains or losses on the Group’s US Dollar and Brazilian Real denominated loans linked to the US Dollar that are not deductible or payable for tax in the period they arise. Exchange gains on these loans are taxable when settled and not in the period in which gains arise. 26 Trade and other payables Trade creditors Other taxes Salaries, provisions and social contribution Accruals and deferred income Share based payment liability Total 31 December 31 December 2020 US$’000 17,451 6,232 16,516 6,913 186 47,298 2019 US$’000 20,400 9,848 18,544 7,630 186 56,608 Trade creditors and accruals principally comprise amounts outstanding for trade purposes and ongoing costs.

It is the Group’s policy to vigorously contest such claims, many of which appear to have little substance or merit, and to manage such claims through its legal counsel. Both provisions and contingent liabilities can take a significant amount of time to resolve. Other non-current assets of US$4.9 million (2019: US$9.4 million) represent legal deposits required by the Brazilian legal authorities as security to contest legal actions. In addition to the cases where the Group has recorded a provision, there are other tax, civil and labour disputes amounting to US$77.4 million (2019: US$103.6 million) where the probability of loss was estimated by the legal counsels as possible. The analysis of possible claims by type is as follows: Tax cases Labour claims Civil and environmental cases Total 31 December 31 December 2020 US$’000 58,809 13,318 5,264 77,391 2019 US$’000 78,258 14,223 11,108 103,589 The main probable and possible claims against the Group are described below: Tax cases – The Group defends against government tax assessments when the Group considers it has a chance of successfully defending its position. Labour claims – Most claims involve payment of health risks, additional overtime and other allowances. Civil and environmental cases – Indemnification claims involving material damage, environmental and shipping claims and other contractual disputes. The procedure for classification of legal liabilities identifies claims as probable, possible or remote, as assessed by external lawyers is: • upon receipt of notices of new lawsuits, external lawyers generally classify the claim as possible recorded at the total amount at risk. The Group uses the estimated value at risk and not the total claim value involved in each process; • if there is sufficient knowledge from the beginning that there is a very high or very low risk of loss, the lawyer may classify the claim as a probable loss or remote loss; • during the course of the lawsuit the lawyer may re-classify the claim as a probable loss or remote loss based on information available including judicial decisions, legal precedents, claimant arguments, applicable laws, defence documentation and other variables; and • when classifying the claim as a probable or possible loss, the lawyer estimates the amount at risk for the claim. Management is not able to give an indication of when the provisions are likely to be utilised as the majority of the litigation involves a high degree of uncertainty as to when the cases will be resolved and can take many years to come to a conclusion. 94 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660028 Share capital Authorised 50,060,000 ordinary shares of 20p each Issued and fully paid 35,363,040 ordinary shares of 20p each 2020 US$’000 2019 US$’000 16,119 16,119 11,390 11,390 The Company has one class of ordinary share which carries no right to fixed income.

The capital structure of the Group consists of debt, which is long term in nature, which includes the borrowings disclosed in note 24 and also the lease liabilities included in note 15, cash and cash equivalents, investments, and equity attributable to equity holders of the parent comprising issued capital, reserves and retained earnings disclosed in the consolidated statement of changes in equity. The Group borrows to fund capital projects and looks to cash flow from these projects to meet repayments. Working capital is funded through cash generated by operating revenues. There were so significant changes in capital during the year relative to the Group policy. Externally imposed capital requirement The Group is not subject to any externally imposed capital requirements. Significant accounting policies Details of significant accounting policies and methods adopted, including the criteria for recognition, the basis of measurement and the basis on which income and expense are recognised, in respect of each class of financial asset, financial liability and equity instrument are disclosed in note 2 to the financial statements.

A financial risk committee meets regularly to assess financial risks and decide mitigation based on guidelines stated in the Wilson Sons financial risk policy. The primary objective is to minimise exposure to those risks by assessing and controlling the credit and liquidity risks. These risks include market risk (including currency risk, interest rate risk and price risk), credit risk and liquidity risk. Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited does not have a policy of borrowing to invest and so is not exposed to interest rate risk directly. The fund has significant liquid assets, the Company is therefore no exposed to liquidity risks. The principal risk faced by the fund is market price risk. The Group may use derivative financial instruments to hedge these risk exposures. The Group does not enter into trading financial instruments, including derivative financial instruments for speculative purposes. 100 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660035 Financial instruments (continued) Credit risk The Group’s principal financial assets are cash, trade and other receivables, related party loans and financial assets designated as fair value through profit or loss. The Group’s credit risk is primarily attributable to its bank balances, trade receivables, related party loans and investments. The amounts presented as receivables in the balance sheet are shown net of allowances for bad debts. The Wilson Sons group invests temporary cash surpluses in government and private bonds, according to regulations approved by management, which follow the Wilson Sons group policy on credit risk concentration. Credit risk on investments in non-government backed bonds is mitigated by investing only in assets issued by leading financial institutions. The Group stipulates a cash allocation limit per bank, in addition to investment rules according to rating classification. The Company invests in banks with rating classification BBB (limited to a maximum of 15%), from A to AA (limited to a maximum of 40%) or AAA (limited to a minimum of 40% and maximum of 100%). The credit risk on liquid funds is limited because the counterparties are banks with high credit ratings assigned by international credit-rating agencies. The credit risk on investments held for trading is limited because the counterparties with whom the Group transacts are regulated institutions or banks with high credit ratings. The Company’s appointed Investment Manager, Hanseatic Asset Management LBG, evaluates the credit risk on trading investments prior to and during the investment period. The Group has no significant concentration of credit risk. Regular credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable. Operational trade receivables An impairment analysis is performed at each reporting date using a provision matrix to measure expected credit losses. The provision matrix is initially based on the Group’s historical observed default rates. The Group evaluates the concentration of risk with respect to trade receivables and contract assets as low, as historically trade receivables are generally received in 30 days. 31 December 2020 Expected credit loss rate Receivables for services Accumulated credit loss 31 December 2019 Expected credit loss rate Receivables for services Accumulated credit loss Market risk Current US$’000 0.09% 34,561 (35) Current US$’000 0.19% 37,146 (63) 1-30 days US$’000 0.09% 4,800 (4) 1-30 days US$’000 0.19% 7,641 (15) 31-90 days US$’000 3.30% 852 (28) 31-90 days US$’000 1.78% 1,434 (26) 91-180 days US$’000 12.77% 197 (25) 91-180 days US$’000 12.11% 694 (84) More than 180 days US$’000 62.48% 742 (462) More than 180 days US$’000 60.38% 1,076 (649) Total US$’000 41,152 (554) Total US$’000 47,991 (837) The Group’s activities expose it primarily to the financial risks of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, interest rates and market prices. Foreign currency risk management The Group undertakes certain transactions denominated or linked to foreign currencies and therefore exposures to exchange rate fluctuations arise. The Group operates principally in Brazil with a substantial proportion of the Group’s revenue, expenses, assets and liabilities denominated in the Real. Due to the high cost of hedging the Real, the Group does not normally hedge its net exposure to the Real, as the Board does not consider it economically viable. Payments from investments in fixed assets are denominated in Real and US Dollars. These investments are subject to currency fluctuations between the time that the price of goods or services are settled and the actual payment date. The resources and their application are monitored with the objective of matching the currency cash flows and due dates. The Group has contracted US Dollar-denominated and Real-denominated debt and the cash and cash equivalents balances are also US Dollar-denominated and Real-denominated. In general terms, for operating cash flows, the Group seeks to neutralise the currency risk by matching assets (receivables) and liabilities (payments). Furthermore, the Group seeks to generate an operating cash surplus in the same currency in which the debt service of each business is denominated. 101 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 35 Financial instruments (continued) The carrying amount of the Group’s foreign currency denominated monetary assets and monetary liabilities at the reporting date are as follows: Real Sterling Euro Yen Liabilities Assets 2020 US$’000 2019 US$’000 2020 US$’000 2019 US$’000 354,244 381,839 156,099 173,593 22 – – 21 – – 11,492 31,147 5,125 11,094 27,033 4,022 354,266 382,306 203,863 217,049 Foreign currency sensitivity analysis The Group is primarily exposed to unfavourable movements in the Real on its Brazilian liabilities held by US Dollar functional currency entities. The sensitivity analysis below refers to the position at 31 December 2020 and estimates the impacts of a Real devaluation against the US Dollar. Three exchange rate scenarios are shown: a likely scenario (probable) and two possible scenarios of a 25% devaluation (possible) and a 50% devaluation (remote) in the exchange rate. The Group uses the Brazilian Central Bank’s “Focus” report to determine the probable scenario.

In management’s opinion, the sensitivity analysis is unrepresentative of the inherent foreign exchange risk as the year end exposure does not reflect the exposure during the year. 102 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660035 Financial instruments (continued) Interest rate risk management The Group is exposed to interest rate risk as entities in the Group borrow funds at both fixed and floating interest rates. The Group holds most of its debts linked to fixed rates. Most of the Group’s fixed rate loans are with the FMM (Fundo da Marinha Mercante). Other loans exposed to floating rates are as follows: • TJLP (Brazilian Long-Term Interest Rate) for Brazilian Real denominated funding through a FINAME credit line for port and logistics operations; • DI (Brazilian Interbank Interest Rate) for Brazilian Real denominated funding in logistics operations; and • IPCA (Brazilian National Consumer Prices) for Brazilian Real denominated funding in port operations and offshore support bases. The Group’s Brazilian Real-denominated investments yield interest rates corresponding to the DI daily fluctuation for privately issued securities and/or “Selic-Over” government-issued bonds. The US Dollar-denominated investments are partly in time deposits, with short-term maturities. The Group has floating rate financial assets consisting of bank balances principally denominated in US Dollars and Real that bear interest at rates based on the banks’ floating interest rate. Interest rate sensitivity analysis The following analysis concerns a possible fluctuation of income or expenses linked to the transactions and scenarios shown, without considering their fair value. For floating rate liabilities and investments, the analysis is prepared assuming the amount of the liability outstanding or cash invested at balance sheet date was outstanding or invested for the whole year.

The net effect was obtained by assuming a 12-month period starting 31 December 2019 in which interest rates vary and all other variables are held constant. The scenarios represent the difference between the weighted scenario rate and actual rate. Investment portfolio Interest rate changes will always impact equity prices. The level and direction of change in equity prices is subject to prevailing local and world economics as well as market sentiment all of which are difficult to predict with any certainty. Derivative financial instruments The Group may enter into derivatives contracts to manage risks arising from interest rate fluctuations. All such transactions are carried out within the guidelines set by the Wilson Sons risk management committee. Generally, the Group seeks to apply hedge accounting in order to manage volatility. 104 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660035 Financial instruments (continued) Market price sensitivity By the nature of its activities, the Group’s investments are exposed to market price fluctuations. However, the portfolio as a whole does not correlate exactly to any Stock Exchange Index as it is invested in a diversified range of markets. The Investment Manager and the Board monitor the portfolio valuation on a regular basis and consideration is given to hedging the portfolio against large market movements. The sensitivity analysis below has been determined based on the exposure to market price risks at the year end and shows what the impact would be if market prices had been 5, 10 or 20 percent higher or lower at the end of the financial year. The amounts below indicate an increase in profit or loss and total equity where market prices increase by 5, 10 or 20 percent, assuming all other variables are kept constant. A fall in market prices of 5, 10 or 20 percent would give rise to an equal fall in profit or loss and total equity.

The Group has adopted a policy of only dealing with creditworthy counterparties as a means of mitigating the risk of financial loss from defaults. The Group’s sales policy is subordinated to the credit sales rules set by Wilson Sons management which seek to mitigate any loss from customers’ delinquency. Trade receivables consist of a large number of customers. Regular credit evaluation is performed on the financial condition of accounts receivable. Trade and other receivables disclosed in the balance sheet are shown net of the allowance for bad debts. The allowance is booked whenever a loss is identified based on past experience or there is an indication of impaired cash flows. Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited primarily transacts with regulated institutions on normal market terms which are trade date plus one to three days. The levels of amounts outstanding from brokers are regularly reviewed by the Investment Manager. The duration of credit risk associated with the investment transaction is the period between the date the transaction took place, the trade date and the date the stock and cash are transferred, and the settlement date. The level of risk during the period is the difference between the value of the original transaction and its replacement with a new transaction. Based on historical experience, the Company considers a financial asset in default when contractual payments are 180 days past due. So that, it is possible to consider that a default rate should be the average of the default after 180 days, net of the recoverability percentage of these receivables. In addition, Ocean Wilsons (Investments) Limited invests in limited partnerships and other similar investment vehicles. The level of credit risk associated with such investments is dependent upon the terms and conditions and the management of the investment vehicles. The Board reviews all investments at its regular meetings from reports prepared by the Company’s Investment Manager. Liquidity risk management Liquidity risk is the risk that the Group will encounter difficulty in fulfilling obligations associated with its financial liabilities that are settled with cash payments or other financial assets. The Group’s approach in managing liquidity is to ensure that the Group always has sufficient liquidity to fulfil its obligations that expire, under normal and stressed conditions, to avoid damage to the reputation of the Group. The Group manages liquidity risk by maintaining adequate reserves, banking facilities and reserve borrowing facilities by continuously monitoring forecast and actual cash flows and matching the maturity profiles of financial assets and liabilities. The Group ensures it has sufficient cash reserves to meet the expected operational expenses, including financial obligations.

Fair value of financial instruments The fair value of financial assets and liabilities traded in active markets are based on quoted market prices at the close of trading on 31 December 2020. The quoted market price used for financial assets held by the Company utilise the last traded market prices. Fair value measurements recognised in the statement of financial position IFRS 13 requires the disclosure of fair value measurements by level of the following fair value measurement hierarchy: Level 1 fair value measurements are those derived from quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities; Level 2 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is directly or indirectly observable; and Level 3 Valuation techniques for which the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement is unobservable. Assessing the significance of a particular input requires judgement, considering factors specific to the asset or liability. The following table provides an analysis of financial instruments recognised in the statement of financial position by the level of hierarchy: 31 December 2020 Financial assets at FVTPL Non-derivative financial assets for trading Short-term investments 31 December 2019 Financial assets at FVTPL Non-derivative financial assets for trading Short-term investments 106 Level 1 US$’000 Level 2 US$’000 Level 3 US$’000 Total US$’000 19,634 39,590 Level 1 US$’000 189,103 – Level 2 US$’000 99,137 – Level 3 US$’000 307,874 39,590 Total US$’000 18,490 14,077 165,010 101,263 – – 284,763 14,077 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 660035 Financial instruments (continued) Valuation Process Investments whose values are based on quoted market prices in active markets and are classified within Level 1 include active listed equities. The Group does not adjust the quoted price for these investments. Financial instruments that trade in markets that are not considered active but are valued based on quoted market prices, dealer quotations or alternative pricing sources supported by observable inputs are classified within Level 2. These include certain private investments that are traded over the counter. Investments classified within Level 3 have significant unobservable inputs as they trade infrequently and are not quoted in an active market. The Group investments include holdings in limited partnerships and other private equity funds which may be subject to restrictions on redemptions such as lock up periods, redemption gates and side pockets. Valuations are the responsibility of the Board of Directors of the Company. The Group’s Investment Manager considers the valuation techniques and inputs used in valuing these funds as part of its due diligence prior to investing to ensure they are reasonable and appropriate. Therefore, the net asset value (“NAV”) of these funds may be used as an input into measuring their fair value. In measuring this fair value, the NAV of the funds is adjusted, if necessary, for other relevant factors known of the fund. No such adjustments were identified in the year. In measuring fair value, consideration is also paid to any clearly identifiable transactions in the shares of the fund. Depending on the nature and level of adjustments needed to the NAV and the level of trading in the fund, the Group classifies these funds as either Level 2 or Level 3. As observable prices are not available for these securities, the Company values these based on an estimate of their fair value, which is determined as follows. The Group obtains the fair value of their holdings from valuation statements provided by the managers of the invested funds. Where the valuation statement is not stated as at the reporting date, the Group adjusts the most recently available valuation for any capital transactions made up to the reporting date. When considering whether the NAV of the underlying managed funds represent fair value, the Investment Manager considers the valuation techniques and inputs used by the managed funds in determining their NAV. The underlying funds use a blend of methods to determine the value of their own NAV by valuing underlying investments using methodology consistent with the International Private Equity and Venture Capital Valuation Guidelines (‘IPEV’). IPEV guidelines generally provides five ways to determine the fair market value of an investment: (i) binding offer on the company (ii) transaction multiples (iii) market multiples (iv) net assets (v) discounted cash flows. Such valuations are necessarily dependent upon the reasonableness of the valuations by the fund managers of the underlying investments. In the absence of contrary information, these values are relied upon. Periodically the Investment Manager considers historical alignment to actual market transactions for a sample of realised investments. Investment in private equity funds require a long-term commitment with no certainty of return and the Group’s intention is to hold Level 3 investments to maturity. In the unlikely event that the Group is required to liquidate these investments then the proceeds received may be less than the carrying value due to their illiquid nature. The following table summarises the sensitivity of the Company’s Level 3 investments to changes in fair value due to illiquidity at 31 December 2020. The analysis is based on the assumptions that the proceeds realised will be decreased by 5%, 10% or 20%, with all other variables held constant. This represents the Directors’ best estimate of a reasonable possible impact that could arise from a disposal due to illiquidity. 107 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 35 Financial instruments (continued) Profit or loss Total equity Profit or loss Total equity 31 December 2020 5% scenario 10% scenario 20% scenario US$’000 4,957 4,957 US$’000 9,914 9,914 US$’000 19,827 19,827 31 December 2019 5% scenario 10% scenario 20% scenario US$’000 5,063 5,063 US$’000 10,126 10,126 US$’000 20,253 20,253 Sensitivity analysis in relation to Level 3 investments has been included in the market price risk management analysis where the Group has shown impacts to the value of investments if market prices had been 5%, 10% or 20% higher or lower at the end of the financial year.

In accordance with Brazilian law, eligible employees with greater than ten years’ service acquire the right to remain in the plan following retirement or termination of employment, generating a post-employment commitment for the Group. Ex-employees remaining in the plan will be liable for paying the full cost of their continued scheme membership. The present value of actuarial liabilities at 31 December 2020 is approximately US$1.6 million (2019: US$2.4 million). The future actuarial liability for the Group relates to the potential increase in plan costs resulting from additional claims as a result of the expanded membership of the scheme.

In the first quarter of 2020 the Company signed financing agreements totalling US$24.6 million denominated in Brazilian Real to reinforce short-term liquidity given the volatility caused by the COVID-19 crisis on global markets. In the second quarter of 2020 the Brazilian National Economic and Social Development Bank (BNDES) granted Wilson Sons eligibility for the COVID-19 “Standstill Agreement”. This allows for the postponement of principal and interest payments that occurred between May and October 2020, a payment deferment of approximately US$10.3 million for the Company’s consolidated companies and US$9.9 million regarding the Company’s 50% share in the offshore support vessel joint venture. Loan repayments are to be made according to the remaining terms of the contracts included in the scheme. In the first quarter of 2021 the Company has signed for a second five-month standstill to defer approximately US$7.5 million for the Company’s consolidated entities and US$8.9 million regarding the Company’s 50% share in the offshore support vessel joint venture between January 2021 and May 2021. Additionally, in the last quarter of 2020, the Company signed a COVID-19 related “Standstill Agreement” with the Banco do Brazil delaying repayment of approximately US$3.7 million for the Company’s consolidated companies and US$1.9 million regarding the Company’s 50% share in the offshore support vessel joint venture. As both BNDES and Banco do Brazil as state controlled entities the deferrals and standstill agreements noted above are government assistance that has been received in the year. The Company has also implemented other austerity measures such as a temporary dividend reduction which was later reinstated and paid during the year and has also taken advantage of tax payment deferrals in line with government incentives, which therefore represent government assistance received during the year. Covenants On 31 December 2020 the Group was in compliance with all loan covenants. Estimated Credit Losses In view of the current scenario of economic uncertainties caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, the Group has reviewed the assumptions that make up the methodology to measure expected credit losses and has not observed an increase in customer default due to the outbreak. It is worth mentioning that Management of Wilson Sons continues to monitor collections and assess potential impacts that could affect the Company’s performance and consequently, the measurement of expected credit losses. Impairment At the time of writing, COVID-19 impacts have not caused any changes in the circumstances that could require an impairment charge to be made against the Group’s assets. Management will continue to review key assumptions used in determining value and carefully monitor short-term fluctuations and macroeconomic assumptions related to the impact of COVID-19. 109 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Notes to the Accounts 37. Coronavirus (“COVID-19”) (continued) 37.1 General Context (continued) Lease Arrangements At this time, there have been no long-term changes in the scope of the Company’s leases and right-of-use assets, including adding or terminating the right to use one or more underlying assets, or extending or reducing the term of the contractual leases. The Company has obtained some short-term reductions and postponements of lease payments, which according to the amendment to IFRS 16 that the company adopted during the year were not considered modifications to existing leases. Investment Portfolio and Liquidity In the Investment Manager Report, the Investment Manager, details the impact of market volatility and market rebound during the year after the initial market decline in March 2020 as it related to the COVID-19 pandemic. Cash requirements for the portfolio are closely monitored. If sufficient resources are not available to meet short-term cash flow requirements, the Investment Manager could meet that requirement through a combination of a sale of liquid assets or the use of a loan facility that if drawn is secured against the investment portfolio. A significant percentage of the portfolio has daily or weekly liquidity. The loan facility was used during the period to manage short term cash flow requirements. There was no outstanding balance for this facility at 31 December 2020. 110 Ocean Wilsons Holdings Limited/Annual Report 2020Job No: 43981Proof Event: 14Park Communications Ltd Alpine Way London E6 6LACustomer: Ocean WilsonsProject Title: Annual Report 2020T: 0207 055 6500 F: 020 7055 6600Statistical Statement (Unaudited) 2016 – 2020 (in US$’000) Closing rates of exchange – R$ to US$ Income Statement Group revenue Raw materials and consumables used Employee charges and benefits expense Depreciation & amortisation expense Amortisation of right-of-use assets Impairment charge Other operating expenses Reversal/Impairment Charge Foreign exchange (losses)/gains on monetary items** Gain/(loss) on disposal of property, plant and equipment Group operating profit** Share of results of joint ventures Returns on investment portfolio at fair value through profit or loss Other investment income Finance costs Profit before tax Income tax expense Profit for the year Profit for the period attributable to: Equity holders of parent Non-controlling interests Balance Sheet Net assets Brazilian interests Investments held for trading Other net assets Attributable net assets – per share (US$) Brazilian interests – book amount Other assets – book and market amount Key Statistics Earnings per share (US) Cash dividends per share paid (US) Mid-market quotation at end of period Mid-market quotation at end of period in US Dollars Year to Year to Year to Year to Year to 31 December 31 December 31 December 31 December 31 December 2019 US$’000 4.03 2018 US$’000 3.86 2017* US$’000 3.31 406,128 (25,290) 460,194 (38,128) 496,340 (37,679) (140,348) (146,327) (166,395) 2016* US$’000 3.26 457,161 (37,741) (144,274) (52,585) – – (53,733) (12,389) (13,025) (92,624) (13,025) (79) 294 68,934 564 34,716 6,052 (27,736) 82,530 (21,481) 61,049 46,852 14,197 61,049 US$’000 444,599 284,763 56,498 785,860 12.57 9.65 22.22 132.5c 70c £9.90 $13.13 (56,178) (57,481) – – – – (119,767) (122,310) (126,470) – (8,456) (296) 91,044 (4,062) (7,942) 4,152 (22,951) 60,238 (26,433) 33,805 13,308 20,497 33,805 US$’000 463,211 258,188 56,310 777,709 13.10 8.89 21.99 37.6c 70c £11.70 $14.92 – 2,750 (2,930) 112,295 3,366 42,064 9,715 (21,976) 145,464 (36,056) 109,408 78,315 31,093 109,408 US$’000 494,745 273,434 55,881 824,060 13.99 9.31 23.30 221.5c 63c £10.95 $14.79 – 2,286 745 99,122 8,073 677 10,254 (599) 117,527 (36,836) 80,691 45,060 35,631 80,691 US$’000 464,988 238,781 53,223 756,992 13.15 8.26 21.41 127.4c 63c £10.22 $12.50 2020 US$’000 5.20 352,792 (19,266) (110,016) (50,617) (10,706) – (87,796) 382 (7,551) – 66,905 (4,142) 33,383 1,644 (23,210) 74,580 (26,577) 48,003 38,712 9,291 48,003 US$’000 385,392 307,874 50,441 743,707 10.90 10.13 109.5c 70.0c £8.45 $11.55 * The 2016 to 2017 comparative for “Income from underlying investment vehicles” and “Other gains and losses” have been shown under “Returns on investments held at fair value through profit and loss”.
