LHV Institutional Baltic Insight, May 11th, 2021

* Tallinna Sadam (TSM1T ET) recorded a somewhat steeper than anticipated decline in total revenues and profits for Q1 2021, compared to the same period last year, primarily driven by continuously depressed results of the passenger harbour segment (‘PAX segment’), strongly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic related cross-border travel restrictions.
* The quarterly vessel dues of TSM’s PAX and cargo harbours segments fell short of our estimates, but the results of the ferry segment and the icebreaker Botnica (under the segment ‘other’) were broadly in line with our projections. Please note that, in Q1 2020, the profitability of the cargo segment and the whole Group was improved by a EUR 1.4m one-off gain from the sale of assets used at the Paljassaare Harbour, where TSM has fully closed down its operations.
* Accordingly, on a comparable basis, the decline in core profits was much lower than the drop in reported figures. Overall, given the circumstances, we treat the reported set of numbers as neutral. Please also refer to the tables and charts in the attachment.
