Wallenius Wilhelmsen: Update on vessel purchase option
Wallenius Wilhelmsen has acquired the vessel "Morning Celine" (6,500 CEU, built
2009) following the completion of a long-term charter in agreement. The
pre-agreed purchase price is well below the current charter-free valuation of
the vessel. The market value was estimated at USD 72.5m using the average of two
broker values at end of Q3 2024.
In line with previous transactions, no financial gains will be booked in
connection with the purchase. The effect on the Profit and Loss account is
expected to be immaterial. The purchase was financed with cash on hand.
