• Growth in total income in 1H2026 driven by the strong performance and strategic expansion of its core Maritime Business, reflecting the Group's focus on building a resilient, high-quality earnings base.

• While the expansion of its core Maritime Business has resulted in higher operating costs, it strengthens the Group's ability to harness greater value creation opportunities through strategic asset monetisation and resale opportunities with a growing pipeline of newbuild maritime assets.
   
• Robust balance sheet with net assets of approximately US$1.8 billion (S$2.3 billion) and net assets value per share (excluding treasury shares) of 47.47 US$ cents (60.87 S$ cents) as at 30 June 2026.
   
• Over the past 9 months, the Group has entered into sale contracts to monetise 12 newbuild vessels, with an aggregate gross contract value of approximately US$500 million, which are expected contribute positively to the Group’s financial performance in FY2026, FY2027 and FY2028, subject to completion, delivery schedules and applicable accounting recognition, barring unforeseen circumstances.
   
• Supported by a positive outlook, the Group continues to advance progressively on its strategic roadmap to build a stronger foundation, enhancing its standing as a maritime-focused investment and solutions platform globally.

Commenting on the results for 1H2026, Executive Chairman and CEO of Yangzijiang Maritime, Mr. Ren Yuanlin said, “Since our listing in November, we have been building a stronger foundation to enhance our earnings capacity through the strategic expansion of our Maritime Business, steadily increasing our pipeline of newbuild vessels orders and reinforcing our proven, repeatable asset-light business model. Given the two to three year shipbuilding cycle, there is a natural transition period before our maritime investments are realised, during which upfront capital commitments and expenses are required.

Underpinned by deep maritime expertise and established global network, our strategy of entering into sale contracts early enables us to lock in reasonable capital gain returns, while providing earnings visibility ahead as the vessels are progressively delivered accordingly. Supported by a disciplined capital recycling strategy and a strong balance sheet, we aim to expand both our recurring operating income base and capital gains returns ahead, creating long-term value for our shareholders.”
