HOLDING AND ELIMINATIONS

SEGMENT RESULT EBITDA generated by the Towage & Salvage segment totaled EUR 24.9 million, with an operating result of EUR 23.0 million (H1 2019: EUR 22.8 million and EUR 20.9 million, respectively). The strong Salvage result includes the contribution from current projects as well as financial settlements from projects that were executed in previous years. Such post completion settlements are common for the salvage business. The segment result includes our share in the net result of joint ventures and associates with terminal services (Smit Lamnalco) and harbor towage (Keppel Smit Towage). The contribution from these joint ventures was EUR 7.0 million (H1 2019: EUR 7.5 million). Adjusted for the deconsolidation of Kotug Smit Towage as per the second quarter 2019, there was a slight increase in the contribution from joint ventures. ORDER BOOK The order book, excluding our share in the order book of joint ventures and associates, was EUR 21.7 million on 30 June 2020 (end-2019: EUR 5.4 million). The order book relates solely to the Salvage business unit. The value of the order book of the joint ventures is not included in the consolidated financials. As per 30 June 2020 the 100% value of the order book of the joint ventures amounted to EUR 1,322 million, which is fully attributable to terminal services contracts of Smit Lamnalco (end-2019: EUR 1,425 million).

SEGMENT RESULT The operating result for the reporting period mainly includes the usual non-allocated head-office costs, as well as various non-allocated (in many cases non-recurring) income and expenses. Following the COVID-19 outbreak, numerous measures were taken to preserve the financial strength of the company. In addition to various cash flow oriented measures, operating cost saving initiatives were also taken. Some of these savings are reflected in the results of the divisions, however reductions in the non-allocated head office expenses contributed to the improved result.

The first half year 2019 EBITDA included a book profit of EUR 42.2 million as a result of sale transactions.
