AS Tallinna Sadam operational volumes for 2022 Q2 and 6 months

Teade

In  2022 Q2,  4.7 million  tonnes  of  cargo  and  1.9 million passengers passed
through  the harbours of Tallinna Sadam. Compared to the same period of previous
year,  the number of passengers increased by 218% i.e. by 1.3 million passengers
whereas  the cargo volume decreased by 21%. The number of vessel calls increased
by  6% to 1948 calls. The  number of passengers  travelling between the Estonian
mainland and the main islands increased by 8% and the number of vehicles by 1%.
The number of charter days of the icebreaker Botnica stayed at the same level as
in the previous year, utility rate of the vessel was 26%.

According to Valdo Kalm, chairman of the management board of Tallinna Sadam, the
beginning  of summer  and the  holiday period  have brought many passengers from
nearby  countries, especially on the Tallinn-Helsinki  line, where the number of
passengers  has increased by more  than 1.5 times. "The Swedish  line is also on
the  rise, and  more and  more cruise  ships arrive  in Tallinn.  Today, we have
managed to recover to 65% of the pre-pandemic level in passenger volume, and the
growth trend continues," explained Kalm.

There  has been a  shift in the  structure of cargo  types in terms of volumes -
instead  of liquid  bulk, ro-ro  cargo has  become the  largest cargo group, the
growth trend of which continues. The decline in liquid bulk was mainly caused by
the  imposition  of  sanctions  on  Belarussian  oil products from March and the
Russian-Ukrainian  war that started in February. The drop in dry bulk was caused
by  significant decrease  in fertilizer  handling volumes  due to  the sanctions
imposed on the operator of Russian origin. There has been a substantial increase
in  container goods both in tons and in container units. The growth in container
traffic  comes  from  a  low  baseline  previous  year,  when there was a global
shortage of empty containers and disruptions in supply chains.

*Ferry  traffic volumes  show the  general demand  for the  service, but  do not
directly  affect the financial results of the ferry segment, as the fee is fixed
in  the service  contract regardless  of the  number of  passengers and vehicles
served.
