TORM Reports Significant Q3 2026 Earnings Growth and Increased Dividend
TORM plc (TRMD) reported strong third-quarter 2026 financial results, characterized by a substantial increase in Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) earnings to $353 million, up from $236 million in the prior year. Net profit rose sharply to $199 million from $78 million, driven by higher average TCE rates across all vessel classes, particularly within the LR2 segment which saw rates of $52,600 per day. The company's robust performance has allowed for a significant increase in shareholder returns, with an interim dividend of $1.35 per share—more than double the previous year's amount. Management also raised its full-year EBITDA guidance to a range of $1.35 billion to $1.5 billion, reflecting confidence in market fundamentals and strong Q4 bookings.
