LHV Institutional Baltic Insight, April 7th, 2021

* Tallink Grupp’s (TAL1T ET or the ‘Group’) PAX flows continued to deteriorate in March 2021, following the additional travel limitations imposed by Finland from 27th January. The current travel and movement restrictions reflect a large number of new COVID-19 infections in the Baltics as well as the Nordic countries.
* On the cargo side there are some encouraging signs in terms of the traffic dynamics. Although the total cargo flow still declined y-o-y in March 2021, the monthly traffic reached the highest level since September 2020, while improving substantially in comparison with the previous months of this year. TAL’s total cargo traffic decreased 10.2% y-o-y to 31,500 units in March, but the figure increased 19.2% compared to February, with volumes expanding on all routes that are currently open.
* TAL’s monthly PAX number dropped 74.2% y-o-y (-2.9% m-o-m) to 72,000, with total passenger cars declining 53.1% y-o-y (+5.8% m-o-m) to 19,700. Please also refer to the tables in the attachment.
