CMB.Tech Investment in Chinese ammonia supply

CMB.TECH is investing in the Chinese ammonia supply chain and signed an off-take agreement for green ammonia produced by CEEC in the Jilin Province and will own a minority share in privately owned Andefu, one of China's largest ammonia supply chain companies. While CMB.TECH did not disclose any financials on the deal we estimate linked financials are relatively small. CMB.TECH has a sensible but disciplined investment approach towards decarbonisation. Through the offtake agreement and terminal ownership CMB.TECH gains access to certified green molecules in the Chinese ports where its dual fuel vessels are (will be) making port calls. The partnership will further bring operational knowledge for CMB's Namibian ammonia operations. No change to rating and target price. We estimate alternative marine fuel capex at less than 2% of GAV for CMB.TECH.
