The Management makes allowances for expected credit losses based on “the simplified approach” according to IFRS 9 to provide for
expected credit losses, which permits the use of the lifetime expected loss provision for all trade receivables.
In 2024, as a result of improved collection efforts and decreased losses on trade receivables, the Management reassessed the accounting
estimates included in the expected credit loss allowance matrix. The outcome of the reassessment resulted in an updated allowance
matrix, reversing allowances of $5.9m in 2024.
Expected credit loss for receivables overdue 180 days or less is 0%-3%, depending on the category of the receivable. Expected credit
loss for receivables overdue more than 180 days is 10%-100%, depending on the category of the receivable. Expected credit loss for
receivables overdue more than one year is  50%-100%, also depending on the category of the receivable. For all “legal” cases,
allowances of 100% are made.
Movements in provisions for impairment of trade receivables during the year are as follows:

Allowance for expected credit loss of trade receivables has been recognized in the income statement under “Port expenses, bunkers,
commissions, and other costs of goods sold”.
Allowance for expected credit loss of trade receivables is calculated using an aging factor as well as specific customer knowledge and is
based on a provision matrix on days past due.
Accounting Policies
Receivables
Outstanding trade receivables and other receivables which are expected to be realized within 12 months from the balance sheet date are
classified as “Trade receivables” or “Other receivables” and presented as current assets.
Receivables are, at initial recognition, measured at their transaction price less allowance for expected credit losses over the lifetime of
the receivable and are subsequently measured at amortized cost adjusted for changes in expected credit losses. Derivative financial
instruments included in other receivables are measured at fair value.
Expected credit losses
Expected credit losses are, at initial recognition, determined using an aging factor as well as a specific customer knowledge such as
customers’ ability to pay, considering historical information about payment patterns, credit risks, customer concentrations, customer
creditworthiness as well as prevailing economic conditions. The estimates are updated subsequently, and if the debtor’s ability to pay is
becoming doubtful, expected credit losses are calculated on an individual basis. When there are no reasonable expectations of
recovering the carrying amount, the receivable is written off in part or entirely.
