CEO COMMENTS CARE AT EVERY LEVEL TRANSLATES INTO HIGHER EARNINGS Higher revenue, earnings, equity, liquidity and values create confidence in our future. There is an old Swedish saying that revenue serves our vanity, earnings serve our common sense, liquidity serves reality and values last forever. For us at Stena, this confidence comes from a combination of all of them. Growing activity and revenue Sustainable earnings Our business continues to expand. Through acquisitions and a growing fleet, Stena Line now operates 23 ferry lines. The freight operations are expanding thanks to this extensive network of attractive lines. Stena Bulk controls around 100 tankers, including 10 newbuildings that are on their way. Stena LNG tankers are operating at better rates. With its reputation for safety and reliability, Stena Drilling has signed long-term contracts for practically every unit and has ordered two new semi-submersible drilling rigs. With its Relationship M anagement programme as a foundation, Stena Property is acquiring and building new residential properties in Sweden and commercial properties in London and Houston. Stena Adactum’s portfolio of companies is expanding. Stena Renewable, for example, now has around 100 wind turbines in operation. Our total revenue increased last year by 10%. Despite a sluggish global economy with Europe in recession for much of the year, our financial results improved in every business area except Stena Drilling, where two drilling units underwent their Special Periodic Surveys (SPS), which are time-consuming and costly. Stena’s total profit before tax increased by MSEK 200 in internal accounting terms and by MSEK 400 in IFRS terms. Stena Line’s improved results in the Irish Sea and North Sea is certainly worthy of note. Due to tight competition from low-cost crews, our business units are continuing to focus on shrinking their cost base. This challenge will continue for the foresee able future. Offsetting lower prices with cost cuts puts pressure on everyone, especially when we also have to maintain flawless operations to keep customers satisfied. Trying at the same time to find new revenue sources is tough, but doable. The photo of Dan Sten Olsson is taken on Valö, outside Göteborg.

In addition, our fleet of vessels has significant unrecognised surplus values, which serve as a buffer if vessel values were to decline suddenly. Our guiding principle with respect to risk is to maintain sufficient liquidity to handle three years in a worst-case scenario without having to resort to drastic, unproductive measures to rescue the company. In early 2014, we refinanced USD 1.6 billion in the bond and debt markets, extending the maturity dates on our loans by four years to seven years. Our liquidity in the form of available credit facilities, cash reserves, readily sellable financial investments and instruments amounts to a healthy SEK 12 billion as of 31 December 2013. With most of our drilling units on long-term contracts, the financial risks facing Stena in the next five years have been reduced significantly, even in a worst-case scenario. We have to be our best as measured by our financial success, our customers’ success, our employees’ success, our partners’ success and our communities’ success. This is what our employees are saying: • A caring attitude leads to sharing – and in the long run sustainable development and mutually beneficial collaborations – between engaged employees and suppliers. • Care creates a commitment to service and satisfying customers with the right technical solutions. • Care leads to excellence – Excellence isn’t an action, it’s a habit. • Care about financial results means caring about profit, liquidity and protecting our assets. • Care means maintaining skills through courses and t raining. • Care is much more than four letters on a sheet of paper. So… Take Care! Values Care, innovation and performance are the guiding principles of our organisation. Our performance is measured in reliability, safety, our customers’ praise, repeat business, costs and profit. Innovation is measured in the number of suggestions from employees and the percentage that are put into action. The meaning of care is something we are still struggling with. In essence care transforms mindfulness into action and performance. I would like to thank everyone for their support and engagement in 2013. Since 2014 seems like a better year, we have good reason to be hopeful.

Both these aspects are critical to any shipping venture and are mutually dependent on each other. It is only by being close to our customers and active in our markets that we can understand where we are in the cycle and when it’s time to act. In addition to the daily operation “assetplay” has historically to a great extent contributed to our financial results. This dual strategy has also been the hallmark of 2013. We have systematically worked with enhancing our operational performance. Stena Drilling has successfully secured commercial contracts for a majority of the fleet at attractive rates over the coming years, securing our prime source of cash flow. The drilling operation has continued to excel in performance. Stena Line improved earnings before depreciation by MSEK 300, primarily through cost reductions. Achieving a low cost operation is essential for us to be relevant in our markets and to deliver long-term customer value. Improving the utilization of our fleet is the other pillar on which our future success rests. We have also succeeded in increasing our freight intake, growing volumes during the year by 7% or 15% if we also include recent acquisitions. Using our core competence of managing larger systems of RoPax vessels in new growth markets has been a key target during the year. Through Stena SeaLine in the Black Sea and Stena Daea Line in Korea we have taken small, but symbolically important steps, to expand our ferry business. These establish- 6 STENA AB 2013 ments have let us build competence and local knowledge that will enable further growth. The Stena Weco system has been expanded to operating about 50 product tankers at any given point in time. The operation is gradually developing into a fully integrated global logistics network for petroleum products, light chemicals and vegetable oils. We are combining our global expertise, in offices around the world, with a significant portfolio of longer-term contracts and spot parcels. The system has been preparing itself for the delivery of the ten IMOIIMAX light chemical tankers from mid-2014, which will give Stena Weco the ability to service our customers in a way none of our competitors can. As a spin-off from the Stena Weco system, we have developed a new feeder company together with one of our largest customers, Golden Agri-Resources, under the name of Golden Stena Weco. This company is developing a sizeable fleet of smaller 15–20,000 ton parcel tankers specifically for the growing inter-Asia trade. It is a good example of how we can develop partnerships with our clients and enhance our global systems. Another area that should be highlighted is the never ending pursuit of fuel consumption reduction. We have a target of annually reducing consumption by 2.5% across the fleet, a number we have been able to beat over a number of years. Part of Stena Line’s management team in the engine room on Superfast VII, one of Stena Line’s vessels on the Irish Sea. This result is a tribute to our innovative work as well as the everyday performance of our dedicated staff. Not only do we save cost, but our fuel reduction initiatives are our primary tangible contribution to minimizing our environmental footprint. A fully laden Suezmax tanker at 14 knots in the Stena fleet of today consumes less than 50% of what it did 15 years ago. It is not only the everyday discipline of incremental improvement that should be highlighted, but also the asset positions we have taken. In the summer, we ordered two semi-submersible drilling units of midwater type, one of which has a cancellation option, for operations in the North Sea and Norwegian shelf. This is a significant investment that will ensure that we will have a balanced drilling fleet of semi-submersibles also in the future. This position underscores our belief in our drilling capabilities, our relationship with our customers and the future requirements of global oil and gas exploration. During the past 18 months, we have acquired nine second hand RoPax vessels at quite favourable prices. These vessels are currently employed in Stena Lines network or chartered out in the market by Stena RoRo. This is yet another example of where we have had the financial strength to make investments counter-cyclically. However, it is not the hardware that is our prime asset. aving 17,000 employees, mostly seafarers, that every day H performs their duties with professionalism, care and loyalty is what Stena is all about. Having a culture whereby we live and breathe safety, quality and performance is the basis for all our operational improvements or asset investments. Looking into 2014, we will still have a challenging market in many areas. Due to the time lag between when a vessel is ordered and when it is delivered, we have only gradually seen the effects of less new building orders after the financial crisis in 2008. Demand is generally strong, but perpetual over-investment is a challenge for shipping. Shipyard prices for vessels are increasing and I therefore foresee that our “asset play” activity will be limited in the near-term future. This will give us room to continue to focus on optimizing our operations and integrating the significant investments that have been made during the past years. Fully capitalizing on our vast wealth of marine and technical expertise, delivering tangible value to our customers will be the key focus area in 2014. Carl-Johan Hagman STENA AB 2013 7 SUSTAINABILITY SUSTAINABILITY RESPONSIBILITY AND CARE IN EVERY BUSINESS For Stena, sustainability and social responsibility mean contributing to economic development, reducing the Group’s environment impact and acting ethically in all its businesses. The Stena Group contributes to society in various ways. The shipping and ferry operations contribute to trade and globalisation, which in turn lead to greater prosperity. The vessels transport passengers and trucks with various types of freight as well as oil and gas to help meeting the world’s energy needs. Stena is also a major producer of renewable electricity in S weden, and provides many people with safe homes in the Group’s properties. A more globalised world requires more (and more efficient) transportation. Even though shipping is one of the most environmentally friendly ways of transport in relation to cargo volume, transports by sea undeniably impact our environment and climate. Stena is therefore actively committed to minimise the effects of freight transports by sea. Technology and innovations have always been high on the agenda at Stena. One example is Stena Line’s energy saving programme, which has launched around 200 projects with the goal of reducing consumption by 2.5% per year. Another example is the use of more fuel-efficient vessels, which produce savings for Stena and its customers as well as environmental gains in the form of lower emissions, which all of society benefits from. By continuously adopting technol ogical innovations, Stena has remained an industry leader in low emission levels, both in the air and at sea. The Group is working with sustainability issues in a number of areas: New technology and changing habits As part of an energy saving project, Stena Bulk increased fuel efficiency in its fleet by no less than 14% year-over-year. Lower 8 STENA AB 2013 bunker consumption has saved SEK 65 million, while also reducing CO2 emissions by slightly over 100,000 tonnes and SO emissions by 1,400 tonnes. The increase in efficiency is partly due to a larger share of green ships in Stena Bulk’s fleet as well as detailed monitoring of their energy consumption, which has led to modifications such as operating at lower speeds. Increased energy efficiency A number of projects are underway at Stena Teknik to improve the energy efficiency of the vessels. One example is a project with Stena Line to rebuild the vessels bulbs for lower speeds. Vessels today operate at a lower average speed than five years ago due to higher fuel prices, but also in order to reduce emissions. The bulb is the part of the hull that affects the backwash from the ship, and hence its energy consumption. The project is s aving 10,000 tonnes of bunker oil per year, equivalent to the annual energy consumption of 1,600 S wedish single-family homes. Proactive safety work A safe and secure workplace is a prerequisite for a safer and more efficient business. Rigorous safety work is conducted daily on board Stena’s vessels and drilling rigs. Most injuries on a drillship or oil rig are from everyday tasks, where the crew does not follow safety precautions. Stena Drilling has therefore taken a proactive approach to reduce the risk of injury or e nvironmental hazards. Prior to performing any task, every crew must fill in a so-called HAZ ID CARD, where icons identify the potential risks associated with the task at hand. A strong safety culture produces results. Stena and Northern Marine Management have maintained the industry’s lowest accident numbers in recent years. Caring translated into action It is important that everyone on board Stena Drilling’s vessels and rigs understands the “Stop the job policy”, which means that anyone in the crew has the right and responsibility to tell a colleague, superior or subordinated, to stop what they are doing if that person feels there is a significant safety risk. For further information on Stena’s sustainability work, read the sustainability report at www.stena.com. Active part of the local community As part of its Relational Management programme, Stena Property is providing around 300 summer jobs a year to young people who live in its properties. The goal is to give them valuable working experience, while at the same time helping to care for their neighbourhood.

Stena Line also owns five ports. The company is an important part of European trade and infrastructure. Managing this business in a cost effective, safe and environmental way is a daily challenge for our dedicated employees at sea and on land. Market The European recession continued in 2013, leading to widespread weakness in freight and travel. Most ferry lines in Europe are therefore using more crew members from outside Europe. Moreover, tighter environmental regulations are being introduced as planned on ship fuels in 2015, which will mean substantial cost increases for shipping in Northern Europe. Operations 2013 Stena Line serves several different customer groups in the freight, leisure and cruise segments. In 2013, Stena Line transported 14.6 million passengers, 3 million cars and slightly over 2 million freight units. Freight volumes rose by 7% (or 15% including the new routes that were acquired). Thanks to high-quality vessels and dedicated personnel, freight and passengers were delivered safely and efficiently. During the year, Stena Line successfully integrated the five new Baltic routes they acquired in 2012 from Scandlines of Germany, of which it had previously been part owner of two. In the process, Stena Line established itself in the Baltic market, where freight volumes have grown strongly in recent years. As always, the company continued its efforts to reduce the fleet’s fuel consumption. Studies and trials are being conducted with Stena Teknik on several alternative fuels for the future. 11,164 MSEK REVENUE 37% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 10 STENA AB 2013 5,759 EMPLOYEES 15,200 DAY/NIGHT FERRIES/HSS RORO FERRIES MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED ROPAX FERRIES 8 5 27 Trailers loaded and secured on a Stena Line ferry. Trailer freight on Stena Line’s various routes is a very large and important aspect of the business. CARL-JOHAN HAGMAN > CEO The strategy adopted in 2013 remains unchanged, and in 2014 the focus will still be on implem entation. Costs will continue to drop thanks to improved routines and processes. Freight volumes have to further increase in order to raise the fleet’s utilisation. At the same time, the freight rates we charge our customers have to reflect the higher fuel costs that are the result of new environment regulations and in so-called Sulphur Emissions Control Areas (SECA). Implementation of the strategy is leading to a consolidation of the fleet and higher utilisation on every departure and allowing Stena Line to fully capitalise on the economies of scale from one of the world’s largest ferry networks. The year’s good growth in freight operations shows that we are heading in the right direction. STENA AB 2013 11 STENA AB > STENA LINE Process of change Automated check-in routines that was developed during the year will be implemented in all our ports in 2014. The response so far has been positive. In addition, a new online reservation system has been launched that better integrates the company’s marketing and sales. Uniform onboard menus have been created for all vessels, enabling Stena Line to coordinate purchasing routines and logistics. Stena Line implemented a more flexible pricing strategy that has allowed to offer lower prices on low-volume departures and increase its utilisation without affecting margins on existing customers. Because of the change in strategy, the company established a more streamlined organisation in 2013 and rationalisations was carried out both within the shore and sea organisation. This work continues in 2014. The new strategy will be fully implemented in 2015 with the aim to improve the result by over SEK 1 billion per year. The company improved its EBITDA during the year by nearly MSEK 300, but still reported a net loss. The result improvement was primarily due to higher volume, lower fuel prices and a reduction in administrative costs. In general, the European ferry industry has had long-term profitability problems, as has Stena Line. At the end of 2012, an action plan was formulated to improve profitability through new, integrated solutions for freight customers, value-added offerings for passengers and a lower cost base. The aim is to create sustainable profitability with local crews while maintaining high quality. The increase in freight volumes in 2013 was a strategic milestone for Stena Line. The development of intermodal logistics solutions for basic industry is continuing in cooperation with partners in Sweden and internationally. These solutions link sea, rail and road transports to ship goods through Europe as efficiently as possible. New travel and onboard offerings for the company’s passengers also contributed to the higher sales volumes. Stena Line is working on a review of its daily operations while systematically overseeing a total of 170 improvement projects. Simplified and cost-saving processes will also benefit customers, and by increasing customer value will ensure that we maintain high utilisation in the long term. Fleet Stena Line expanded its fleet in 2013 through the addition of three RoPax ferries to better meet the needs of its freight customers. These vessels are of standardised Visentini design, which offers increased flexibility to adjust capacity in the network when economic conditions and demand change.

The company operates globally from its head office in Aberdeen, Scotland, with four drillships for ultradeep water and three midwater drilling rigs. With several successful newbuildings and refurbishment projects, Stena Drilling has been a pioneer in several areas of technological development and innovation in the offshore industry. In 2013, Stena Drilling contracted the construction of two midwater drilling rigs from Samsung Heavy Industries with the right to cancel one unit. The estimated cost is MUSD 800 per rig, with delivery of the first rig scheduled in April 2016 and the second in September 2016. A commercial highlight during the year was the contract extension for Stena Forth. The new, five-year agreement includes cancellation rights, but extends at least until year-end 2015. The contract was signed with Hess Corporation, and Stena Forth will be operating in US waters outside the Gulf of Mexico. Several contracts for Stena Drilling’s other units were signed during the year. After a new contract signed with Statoil, Stena Carron will operate in the waters outside Angola begin- ning in the first quarter of 2017. Stena DrillMAX’s three-year contract with Tullow Oil took effect in 2013, and it is now operating outside West Africa. During the year, Stena Drilling installed a second blowout preventer (BOP) on Stena DrillMAX and Stena Forth to increase safety in connection with oil drilling. Stena Spey and Stena DrillMAX underwent routine Special Periodic Services (SPS) during the year to maintain their mandatory classification. Safety Safety on the drilling units is of critical importance to Stena Drilling. A tragic accident on board Stena Clyde in 2012 killed two of our crew members. Until and since then, Stena Drilling has avoided serious incidents. 7,146 MSEK REVENUE 24% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 1,087 EMPLOYEES DRILLSHIPS 23,800 MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED DRILLING RIGS 14 STENA AB 2013 4 3 Stena DrillMAX, one of Stena Drilling’s four deepwater drillships, is chartered to Tullow Oil and positioned outside the coast of West Africa. TOM WELO > CEO Oil is a cornerstone of our society and will remain so for a long time to come. It is energy rich, easy to transport and easy to use. On that basis, Stena Drilling views the market positively. Thanks to the contracts it has signed, Stena Drilling is secure through both 2014 and 2015. The years ahead look strong, especially with regard to operations in the North Sea and in par- ticular the Norwegian and UK sectors, which are characterised by older rigs that will be phased out and replaced by new rigs. As a result, we anticipate a year of profitable contracts and will therefore focus on first-rate operational and safety performance on our vessels and rigs. In the future, we will accept nothing short of performance perfection.

The company monitors developments through statistical feedback and other reporting, and takes initiatives to ensure that the personnel focus on safety work. To maintain safety, employees regularly receive training to be prepared if the unexpected occurs. Since people are involved, there is always a risk of error, but Stena Drilling is working to gradually eliminate hazards. This applies to the safety culture as well as practical measures such as properly maintaining processes, machinery and materials. In the last year the staffing on board Stena Clyde has been reviewed and the safety department has been reorganised. Stena Drilling’s safety work is continuing with the aim of reducing the number of incidents to zero. enterprises. Twenty years ago, no one would have thought that Chinese national oil companies would become important partners, but that has changed. Stena Clyde will operate in the waters outside Australia for Sinopec of China in 2014. Although this market shift has affected the business, the fundamental needs are still the same: oil companies need financing and technology. Market analysts are forecasting a production increase of 2–3% per year in the long term, but in 2014 there will probably be a slight decline in production. The oil companies’ marketing strategy had previously been to increase revenue, but now many are giving profitability higher priority. Because of this, many are planning to reduce their exploration activities. To be profitable, they have invested more in production instead. The market for ultradeep water will have difficulty raising capacity in coming years, and not before 2016–2017 are capacity shortages expected to be relieved by the arrival of new drilling units. The market has plenty of older rigs that are being phased out and replaced by modern rigs. Market development The oil exploration and extraction market has changed in the last 20 years.

STENA AB 2013 17 STENA AB > STENA DRILLING > CASE HESS ALIGNMENT BRINGS OUT THE BEST IN EACH OTHER SAM BROWN Director of Drilling and Completions Offshore Americas and West Africa at Hess Corporation Hess have a long standing and successful relationship with Stena Drilling dating back to the early 1990’s with the Stena Spey drilling unit in the UK North Sea. More recently the Stena Forth and Stena DrillMAX drillships have worked for Hess. The Stena Forth is in the 5th year of a long term contract and is currently operating in the Gulf of Mexico on Hess’ Tubular Bells deepwater development. The Stena DrillMAX drilled six successful exploration wells for 18 STENA AB 2013 Hess in Ghana in 2012/2013 and is contracted to return to Ghana in 2014 for a further three wells. “The Hess/Stena relationship is a partnership built on shared values and aligned expectations on safety, reliability and operating performance”, says Mr Brown, who is the Director of Drilling and Completions Offshore Americas and West Africa at Hess Corporation. He went on to say that in addition to the alignment between the two companies, a strength is that issues are tabled and worked by both companies in an open and constructive manner. “Hess challenge Stena and Stena challenge Hess, which brings out the best in both companies”, Mr Brown says. He approves of the way Stena maintain and operate their drilling units: “Stena are a very well-run company who continually invest in their drilling units and their personnel to improve safety, reliability and operating performance.” STENA AB 2013 19 STENA AB > STENA BULK STENA BULK GOOD BUSINESS LEADS TO RAPID EXPANSION OF THE FLEET Stena Bulk is one of the world’s leading tanker operators, offering safe and cost-effective transports of crude oil and refined petroleum at sea. This requires a holistic perspective – from development and construction to crewing and chartering of first-class tankers. In the last 20 years, crude oil transports have grown by 2–3% a year, while the increase for refined petroleum and chemicals has been 4–5%. For much of 2013, freight rates for crude oil transports were at their lowest levels since 2000. Part of the rebound late in the year was seasonally related, although prices reached higher levels than expected and freight rates quadrupled. Thanks to this and several other brief increases, annual result per vessel finished the year at nearly the same levels as in 2012. One of the reasons for the strong December was China’s decision to again begin expanding its petroleum stocks leading into 2014. It commissioned a number of refineries, and the petroleum price differential between different parts of the world made long-distance shipments profitable. Oil exploration in the US has increased by about 30% since 2009. As a result, refineries are producing more, which in combination with strong productivity in 2013 has generated higher exports, benefitting the market for product tankers. In the process, the US has reduced its crude oil imports by about 25%, primarily affecting imports from West Africa, which have dropped from about two million barrels per day in 2010 to 0.5 million barrels in 2013. US refineries, many of which were threatened with closure just a few years ago, have now been rejuvenated. An upgrade of refineries and expansion of their capacity is expected in the years ahead. 1,513 MSEK REVENUE 5% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 20 STENA AB 2013 212 EMPLOYEES 5,700 MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED TANKERS 92 Stena Suède is one of the world’s most energy- efficient Suezmax tankers. Here she is unloading crude oil at Finnart Terminal in Land Long, on the west coast of Scotland. ERIK HÅNELL > CEO We are confident looking ahead to 2014. Freight rates for crude oil have passed bottom and the product market is expected to maintain about the same growth rate as in 2013. The chemical market is a little further behind, but will see positive development in 2014. Business relations will be improved, and the goal is that the chemical sector will grow. Going forward, we will continue to grow in pace with our contracts and demand. With a customer focus and efficient operations, Stena Bulk is consolidating its position as a leading brand in international tanker shipping. As of 2014, overall responsibility for Stena’s LNG vessels again rests with Stena Bulk. STENA AB 2013 21 STENA AB > STENA BULK Efficiency improvements by Stena Bulk Stena Bulk’s commitment to quality and commercial operation played a prominent role in its 2013 results. The company’s strengths are a modern fleet purchased or chartered on competitive terms and the ability to maintain high utilisation. Its business is built on a balanced structure of freight contracts and strong customer relations, combined with an efficient way of operating in the open spot market. Fleet improvements The fleet consists of around 100 controlled vessels, about fifty of which are part of the Stena Weco system. Stena Weco’s fleet of product tankers has grown by about 20% since 2012. The system is designed around partnerships and contracts in combination with operation in the open spot market. Since Stena has decided to let the system grow in pace with demand, there is little risk associated with expansion. During the year, Stena Bulk announced together with its partners that it had ordered four more IMOIIMAX tankers, which will be operated by Stena Weco. This increases the total number of vessels in the series to 10. Based on current market conditions, these four, along with the previous six, were acquired on favourable terms. Since the contract was signed, prices have risen significantly, giving Stena Bulk a competitive advantage in this segment as well. As part of an expansion into vegetable oil shipping in Asia, Golden Stena Weco, a joint venture between Stena Weco and Indonesia-based Golden Agri-Resources (GAR), acquired another 10,000-tonne chemical tanker, Golden Adventure. At the end of the year, the joint venture also purchased five 17,000-tonne chemical tankers. GAR, which produces and trades palm oil, chose Stena Weco as its transportation partner because of how Stena operates its vessels and its financial stability. The companies have shared an office in Singapore since 2012. Golden Stena Weco’s transport volumes and revenue both doubled in 2013 from the previous year. 22 STENA AB 2013 In January and February 2013, Stena Bulk took delivery of two Eco Suezmax tankers. The vessels were the last in a series of seven, the first five of which were delivered in 2011–2012. These Suezmax tankers are the most fuel-efficient in their class. Sustainability produces positive results Another factor affecting the company’s results is the environmental improvements it has made. Compared to 2012, fuel consumption was reduced by 14%. The goal was to reduce consumption by 3%, which is also the goal for 2014. The gains are the result of Stena Bulk’s operating systems and shipping know-how. The company is working continuously to more efficiently maintain its fleet. Hulls and propellers are kept clean from fouling, and the company is gradually evaluating and installing equipment that effectively reduces fuel consumption. The Stena Sonangol Suezmax Pool (SSSP) is controlled by Stena Bulk and the Angolan state oil company Sonangol. SSSP comprises 21 modern vessels, 15 of which are Eco Suezmax class and the others high-quality Suezmax tankers. Sonangol has devoted considerable energy to keeping its entire fleet operating efficiently. Restructuring and development of the organisation Stena Bulk is continuing to grow and gradually creating a workforce that combines experience with a passion for the industry. The Stena Tanker Division, comprising Stena Bulk and its joint ventures that operate tankers, had a shore staff of 83 at year-end, excluding on-board crew. The employees are spread across a number of companies on several continents, so the challenge is to maintain Stena Bulk’s and Stena’s values throughout the business, which is something Stena Bulk’s management makes sure to express in forums with employees. On 31 January 2013, the Suezmax vessel Stena Sunrise was christened at Samsung Heavy Industries (SHI) in Geoje, South Korea. The tanker is the last in a series of seven and is owned by Stena Bulk. She is a fuel-efficient, third-generation Suezmax tanker and, like the others in the series, is now part of the Stena Sonangol Suezmax Pool. STENA AB 2013 23 STENA AB > STENA BULK 24 STENA AB 2013 Established supplier in record time Stena LNG provides safe and effective transport of liquid natural gas, LNG. The company was founded in 2012 to focus on Stena’s investment in the promising LNG segment and is since 1 January 2014 a part of Stena Bulk. Stena LNG’s fleet consists of three modern vessels. At the start of 2013, two of them, Stena Clear Sky and Stena Crystal Sky, were chartered out on longer contracts. The contract on the third, Stena Blue Sky, expired in 2013. The single most important event during the year was Stena LNG’s success in being awarded a new, two-year contract for this vessel. The new contract took effect right after the previous one expired, and the three vessels are now contracted to 2015. The contract was important, and negotiations were effectively conducted directly with the customer. This was important since it was signed at a time of falling rates. Since it was founded in 2012, Stena LNG has very quickly become an established player in the LNG segment. It was thanks to Stena LNG’s position that the customer initiated the Stena Blue Sky contract and that the deal was finalised without any competing offers. Stena’s technological, operational and crewing expertise is part of the reason for Stena LNG’s ability to establish itself in the segment in record time. The company has a technological and safety philosophy that sets it apart from the competition, at the same time that it is distinguished by a high level of service and a long-term commercial focus. The strategy is to be prepared for new opportunities by carefully tracking potential acquisitions. This paves the way for future growth. The aim is to be a strategic partner of firstclass international gas companies. Market conditions contrasted sharply in 2013 with the previous year’s historically high freight rates. The year was characterised by slow economic growth, with rates falling by 30% compared to 2012. The daily rate in 2012 peaked at USD 150,000 and stabilised at the end of 2013 at around USD 100,000 per day. The company expects rates to continue to fall in 2014 due to an excess of vessels. There is a major imbalance in today’s market between where LNG is produced and where it is consumed. This imbalance is expected to grow and in the next year lead to higher demand for LNG transports. One question going forward concerns the US, which is debating whether to export LNG or keep this inexpensive energy source in the country. Developments so far have been slightly more positive than expected. The US administration has approved project after project in the LNG sector, and the legal process has been faster than anticipated. LNG production is also expected to increase in Canada, Russia, Australia and East Africa in the years ahead. Together with expectations in the US, this should produce a very positive market in the next year. STENA AB 2013 25 STENA AB > STENA BULK > CASE NORTHERN SEA ROUTE THE ICE-FREE WATERS OF THE NORTH SAVE BOTH THE ENVIRONMENT AND RESOURCES The ice sheet around the Arctic has become thinner, making it possible in the last few years to navigate north of Russia – at least during the summer months and when Russian nuclear- powered ice breakers help to keep the Northern Sea Route open. In mid-September 2013, Stena Polaris, a 65,000 dwt P-MAX tanker, left the Gulf of Finland with a cargo of 44,000 tonnes of naphtha and set sail for the port of Yeosu, in South Korea. The northern short cut saved resources and the environment. “Choosing the Northern Sea Route instead of the Suez Canal saves time. From Northern Europe to South Korea it can mean as much as two weeks. We saved eight days and about 320 tonnes of bunker oil,” said Patrik Svahn, Manager Commercial Operations at Stena Bulk, who was on the trip and wrote about it in a blog, www.stenanorthernsearoute.com. “There was a lot of interest in our sailing,” he continued. “On board Stena Polaris were four South Korean journalists. The journey was documented and has already been shown on Korean television. For South Korea, the Northern Sea Route is an opportunity to compete with other ports in the region, and the shorter travel time is a critical factor if it is going to succeed. For Stena Bulk, the journey was a collaborative effort with many involved. Stena Polaris is owned by Concordia Maritime and the trip was a joint venture with South Korea’s Hyundai Glovis. It was in fact the first time a Korean shipping company had taken its cargo through the Northern Sea Route. “For years, Hyundai Glovis has been trying to get a ship to travel 26 STENA AB 2013 Travelling the Northern Sea Route is a major competitive advantage. The trip between Asia and Europe is upwards of 12–13 days shorter. through the Northern Sea Route from Europe to Korea. When we made land in Yeosu, an impressive welcoming committee was on hand to receive us,” said Patrik. Traffic along the Northern Sea Route is going to increase. Some estimates say that it could grow tenfold by 2021. “Russia is interested in seeing traffic grow, and their administrative authorities are receptive. They want to find year-round use for their ice breakers,” said Patrik. “I learned a lot from the journey and it was an experience to see how the Northern Lights illuminate the frozen night sky. I also realized the opportunities and challenges our personnel face in Arctic waters. This means we at the office can understand the big picture and the customer in a better way,” he concluded. “THE SAVINGS IN TIME FROM NORTHERN EUROPE TO SOUTH KOREA CAN BE AS MUCH AS TWO WEEKS.” STENA AB 2013 27 STENA AB > STENA RORO STENA RORO CONTINUED HIGH ACTIVITY AND FOUR NEW VESSELS Stena RoRo provides vessels, innovative solutions and project management. Its customers are operators and shipping companies around the world. The company’s expertise, dedication and financial resources create customer value, growth and profitability, and make it an attractive place to work. Stena RoRo has maintained a high level of activity in recent years. The industry’s economic challenges following the Lehman Brothers crash have created buying opportunities at favourable prices – especially in relation to current newbuilding prices. Stena RoRo purchased four vessels in 2013. Two of them, Stena Alegra and Stena Egeria, were purchased after they had been laid up for an extended period and since then have been refurbished in shipyards. This type of demanding deal works because of Stena RoRo’s technical, commercial and financial expertise. At the end of 2013, Stena Alegra was employed in New Zealand, while Stena Egeria was still under refurbishment in China. During the year, Stena RoRo acquired two additional RoPax vessels, Trinacria and Partenope, which were chartered back to the seller. Stena RoRo is in a very active phase and, in addition to the four above-mentioned vessels, has assumed commercial and technical responsibility for five RoRo vessels from Stena Line since April 2012. In late 2012, Stena RoRo was awarded a contract by Mercy Ships to design the world’s largest civilian hospital ship. Mercy Ships is an international charity organisation that currently operates one older hospital ship staffed by voluntary medical personnel from around the world. The vessel has been operated for several years in some of Africa’s poorest countries. In December 2013, Mercy Ships placed an order for the new ship at the Xingang Shipyard in China. A contract was also signed between Stena RoRo and Mercy Ships where Stena RoRo will be responsible for management and site supervision. Stena Baltica, renamed SNAV Adriatico, was delivered at the beginning of the year to the Italian shipping company SNAV, which operates ferry traffic between Italy and Croatia. The contract with SNAV is a six year bareboat charter with a final purchase obligation. 489 RORO FERRIES MSEK REVENUE 2% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 28 STENA AB 2013 346 EMPLOYEES 3,200 MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED ROPAX FERRIES 9 13 A crew member checks lashing chains on board the RoRo vessel Mont Ventoux. Market development The recent market slowdown has eased. The RoPax segment is showing signs of improvement. Charter rates have rebounded, and we are seeing a balance between supply and demand. The RoRo market, on the other hand, is not yet seeing any improvement. Cargo volumes are keeping pace with economic conditions in general. On the supply side, a large number of modern vessels were ordered during the years 2005–2007. When they were delivered, the economy was in considerably worse shape, which pushed smaller and older vessels aside and has led to recycling of a large number of RoRo vessels in the last 2–3 years. One political decision that has prevented speculative newbuilding in the RoPax segment is the European Union sulphur directive. Stricter rules on sulphur emissions will be introduced in so-called Sulphur Emission Control Areas (SECA) in 2015. At this point in time, there is uncertainty which technical solutions should be used for new vessels. Examples include operating on methanol, LNG or treating emissions with scrubbers. Stena continuously evaluates all these alternatives. Fleet improvements Efforts continued during the year to further improve vessels according to DNV Triple-E (Environmental and Energy Efficiency Rating Schedule), system for the improvement of environmental p erformance and energy efficiency. Stena RoRo was the first in the world to introduce the system, on board the Stena Foreteller. Stena RoRo is also working actively to reduce bunker consumption by improving its operational processes and reducing resistance through the water. The latter includes using silicone based marine paints, more efficient propellers, optimised machinery and propulsion systems, and refined hull designs. PER WESTLING > CEO We expect the RoRo market to remain stable in 2014 compared to 2013. The outlook is brighter for the RoPax market, where we are seeing higher rates on contracts renewals. Stena RoRo’s strategy is to work with financially sound customers with specific needs, where we can offer full-service solutions that include design and implementation of newbuildings and refurbishment of vessels and systems. Our business is to acquire, manage and upgrade vessels. Efficient operation, environmental safety and customised vessels all create value-added solutions, which leads to higher productivity and at a later stage to profitable vessel sales.

In August 2013, NMM reached an agreement with Chevron to establish the Chevron Learning and Development Centre within the grounds of the existing NMM site in Clydebank, Glasgow. The Centre will host a number of state of the art bridge and engine room simulators for use by both Chevron and NMM seafarers. The formation of the Centre further strengthens the long term relationship between Stena and Chevron. ment contract with a Chinese shipping company subsequent to a sustained focus on business development with partners based in the Far East. 2013 also marked the occasion of NMM’s achieving 30 years in business, during which steady profitable growth was achieved. Focus on cost control, safety and energy Development in the Far East In January 2013, NMM acquired outright ownership of the Austen Maritime Group in Singapore, previously a 50–50 joint venture with P&O Australia. This development allows NMM to focus on the enhancement of the scope of shipping-related services delivered from the Singapore group. During the course of the year, Stena Marine Shanghai was established, with premises located in central Shanghai. This development followed the award of NMM’s first ship manage- In line with the previous few years, the main focus of vessel owners and operators during 2013 was on maintaining cost control at a time when revenues were declining. Regulation in the industry is continuously increasing, and the cost of complying with increased regulation impacted operating costs in 2013. Demand from clients for a quality service continues regardless of the economic environment, with safety and energy management continuing to be treated as priorities. 413 MSEK REVENUE 1% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 7,854 EMPLOYEES 1) 200 MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED 1) O f whom employed on: Stena vessels 1,830, external vessels 5,600, shore based staff 424 30 STENA AB 2013 Deck crew clearing ice onboard a Stena P-MAX in winter conditions.

From starting out with the delivery of a few basic safety courses for seafarers, the centre today delivers a full range of simulator training. With over 300 graduates in 2013, the Training Centre is focused on delivering high quality training to seafarers. As the reputation of the Centre has grown, so has the external client base. Besides the Stena fleet the Training Centre now hosts delegates from industry leaders such as Chevron and Shell. The Training Centre delivers the latest Electronic Navigational and Liquid Cargo Simulator Training, Leadership and Management Training as well as Navigational Bridge Simulator Based Training to sea farers. The centre is accredited by both the UK’s Maritime and Coastguard Agency and the classification society Bureau Veritas, to the highest industry standard. “With such a large focus on quality and training in Northern Marine, officer cadets are naturally one of our top priorities, with over 200 cadets of various nationalities cur- 32 STENA AB 2013 rently employed.

STENA AB 2013 33 STENA AB > STENA TEKNIK STENA TEKNIK INNOVATIONS FOR EFFICIENCY AND SAFETY Stena Teknik is a unique technological resource for the marine parts of Stena. Thanks to the vast and broad-based knowledge of its employees, the company can develop solutions that make the business areas more competitive. In 2013, two Suezmax tankers were delivered from Samsung Heavy Industries’ shipyard in South Korea. The vessels, which were delivered on budget and on time, are operated by Stena Bulk and included in the Stena Sonangol Suezmax Pool. The two are the last in a series of seven “sisters”. These highly fuel-efficient vessels are equipped with an optimised propulsion system. Together with increased efficiency – thanks to fins, propellers and rudder bulbs, among other things – this reduces bunker consumption by 8%. During the second quarter 2013, construction of ten product tankers began in China. Estimates show that these new so-called IMOIIMAX tankers will be 25% more fuel-efficient than previous generations of tankers of similar size. Furthermore, IMOIIMAX offers significantly higher load flexibility. The first vessels are scheduled for delivery in 2014. The project was initially overseen from Göteborg, but when construction began an inspection office was opened at the shipyard as well. 17 EMPLOYEES 34 STENA AB 2013 Two semi-submersible drilling rigs were ordered in the summer of 2013. The rigs are designed to handle the tough conditions of the North Sea, a harsh environment in terms of rig movements and positioning. The North Sea also has the most stringent regulations in the world on safety and working environments on board. Construction of the units begins in 2014, and they are scheduled for delivery in 2016. Research, development and innovation The International Maritime Organisation’s (IMO) sulphur directive for Northern Europe, which limits the sulphur content of marine fuel to 0.1%, has forced the industry to find alternatives to offset the cost increases. One of Stena Teknik’s projects involves using methanol as a fuel. The project, on Stena Scanrail, was completed in 2013. Conversion to methanol operation is associated with significant investment. Stena has received support to pay half the cost of a conversion of Stena Germanica from the EU’s Trans-European Transport Networks (TEN-T). The funds will be used not only to convert Stena Germanica but also to design a distribution system for methanol. Together with its partners, Stena Teknik has strongly contributed to the drafting of international rules on fuels with low ignition temperatures. Stena Teknik has also developed an anchoring system that enables drilling vessels to operate in shallow depths of 50–150 meters. The system, which allows the vessel to rotate, enables the vessel to connect and disconnect in a controlled way. Stena Teknik has patented the system, which has attracted considerable interest in the industry. In the years ahead, ten highly versatile IMOIIMAX tankers will be built. The 183 meter vessels, with a load capacity of 54,000 m3, are expected to be among the most energy- efficient and environmentally friendly in the world. Stena Impression, the first in the series, is scheduled for delivery in autumn 2014. HARRY ROBERTSSON > TECHNICAL DIRECTOR The focus in 2014 is on monitoring our newbuildings, so that they are delivered as planned. Another priority is energy efficiency, where the annual target is an improvement of 2.5%. Stena Teknik has drafted a vessel-specific action plan for Stena Line’s fleet to reduce bunker consump- tion. The plan for 2014 is to eliminate about 10,000 tonnes of HFO (Heavy fuel oil). Stena Teknik has recruited a Performance Manager to monitor the vessels’ fuel consumption and suggest a dditional measures. STENA AB 2013 35 STENA AB > STENA PROPERTY STENA PROPERTY BUILD AND MANAGE WITH A FOCUS ON COMFORT Stena’s property operations are managed by Stena Fastigheter in Sweden and by Stena Realty internationally. Its portfolio consists of 2.4 million m², mainly in Sweden. With tenancy as its form of tenure, Stena Property develops long-term, attractive residential environments and workplaces. Its goal is to be the first choice of tenants. Stena Fastigheter prioritised new construction during the year. In central Malmö, close to Stortorget, Stena is investing MSEK 100 in offices and flats. The project was launched in 2012, with move-in scheduled in early 2014. In addition, Stena has broken ground on rental units in Lomma Hamn, an investment of MSEK 70. In the Stockholm region, Stena Fastigheter has invested MSEK 500 in Ängby Park, where 320 flats are now ready. In Bredäng, construction will begin next year on 180 flats, half of which will be for students. Construction also begins next year on 380 flats in Kvarngärdet, in Uppsala. Sweden’s “Million Programme” will require extensive renovations. Stena Fastigheter is allocating about MSEK 500 per year to this type of investment. In Uppsala, renovation is underway at Kvarngärdet, where Stena is investing MSEK 600 during the period 2011–2015. In Handen, in Haninge municipality, MSEK 200 has been invested in bathroom renovations. In Gothenburg, a restart is being made at Pennygången, an area with experimental construction dating back prior to the Million Programme, after the properties proved to be in worse condition than expected. In this area, Stena Fastigheter has applied to launch a project to evaluate opportunities to build more flats. At the same time, the dialogue with residents is being improved, to better capture their views. It has been difficult to acquire properties in Sweden due to the high price levels. One of the few acquisitions Stena Fastig heter made in 2013 was for Stena’s owners, who acquired “Gröna skrapan”, a commercial property in Gothenburg built by Skanska and which has received LEED Platinum status. The building is managed by Stena Fastigheter. 2,788 MSEK REVENUE 9% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 36 STENA AB 2013 252 EMPLOYEES RESIDENTIAL 28,800 MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED COMMERCIAL 23,729 3,028 Through close collaboration with tenants and local businesses, Stena Fastigheter creates safe, stable, thriving residential environments.

In the summer of 2013, Stena Realty signed a lease with Jacobs Engineering, one of the world’s largest technical service providers, on over 8,000 m² in a newly constructed building in Houston. In late 2013, the chemical and engineering group Sasol also signed a lease, for 17,500 m². Because of the new lease, Stena is constructing a second building in Houston. The new investments in Houston amount to around MUSD 100, and both are long-term leases. In 2013, Stena Realty acquired a property in the Midtown section of London for MGBP 15.6. The company now owns four central properties in London and is continuing to evaluate the city, although the economic rebound has raised demand as well as property prices. Stena Realty is also a significant property owner in Sophia Antipolis, in southern France, with 50,000 m² of commercial space. The area has a low vacancy rate, and the company is adding 2,000 m² of office space in World Trade Center. A permit has been granted, and construction will begin in 2014. The Dutch commercial property market is suffering from high vacancy rates, which Stena is addressing through its local organisation and collaborations with brokers. Modern showrooms and entrances that are more welcoming than neighboring property leads to competitive advantage for Stena Realty. Property sales In Gothenburg, Stena has sold a property on Gullbergsvass to Platzer. Also, several smaller properties were sold in Stockholm and Lomma as well as one in Amsterdam. In total, property sales generated a capital gain of slightly over MSEK 50. Social engagement Relationship Management (Relationsförvaltning®) is Stena Property’s concept for developing sustainable residential e nvironments and workplaces where people thrive and want to stay. This requires close cooperation with tenants and local businesses to create safe, stable, thriving residential environments. Stena Property is now creating Relationship Management 2.0, including by appointing a relationship management strategist. In focus areas such as Fisksätra, Lövgärdet and Hermodsdal, Stena Property is working to provide children a healthy place to grow up, including by offering homework assistance, but also by helping to provide recreational opportunities near schools. Stena Property has decided to provide summer jobs for 300 young people in 2014. The jobs will primarily be in areas where it is especially hard for them to find work. Stena requires written CVs, conducts real job interviews and offers written recommendations after the summer. The aim is to prepare these young people for the job market at the same time that they get a feel for the areas where they live. Environment Consumption of energy, electricity and water in Stena’s properties impacts the environment. The goal is to reduce consumption by 20% by 2020 compared to 2010. To date, the results have been better than planned. Consumption is monitored month by month to measure the results of the adjustments and investments that have been made and in that way reduce usage. Stena Property compares properties of similar standard and age and shares good examples within the organisation. Tenants are encouraged to conserve through individual measurements of hot water consumption, for example. Regardless of the situation, Stena Property will always take the measure that is most effective from a cost and environmental standpoint. This includes fine-tuning heating equipment and installing water-saving devices. Another example is motion-activated LED lighting. In addition, Stena Property consumes only green electricity in its properties. STENA AB 2013 39 STENA AB > STENA ADACTUM STENA ADACTUM CONTINUED INDUSTRIAL GROWTH Stena Adactum is Stena’s wholly owned investment company which invests in both listed and unlisted companies with a long-term ownership perspective. Through active ownership and financial strength, Stena Adactum builds strong and profitable companies. Stena Adactum consists of six subsidiaries and two publicly listed associated companies. The subsidiaries’ aggregate revenue amounts to SEK 6.5 billion, of which the operations in Europe account for about SEK 6.0 billion. Stena Adactum’s companies are well-positioned to take advantage of organic growth opportunities as well as acquisitions. Stena Adactum’s international expansion is achieved through the portfolio companies, since product expertise and cost efficiency are critical to success in the face of growing global competition. The sales trend in emerging economies has been positive in recent years, and several portfolio companies continue to expand, primarily in Asia and the Middle East, but also to some extent in South America and Africa. In addition to its geographical expansion, Stena Adactum capitalises on growth opportunities that major market trends offer. The focus is primarily on investments in product development, renewable energy, infrastructure solutions and demographic development. Ballingslöv International Ballingslöv International is a leading supplier of kitchen, bathroom and storage systems, represented by ten brands in eleven countries. In 2013, Manhattan Furniture was acquired and merged with Paola Rosa and is now a leading kitchen supplier for newbuilt homes in the UK. Kvik continued its expansion in Thailand and now has twelve stores with more planned in 2014. 6,453 21% SHARE OF GROUP REVENUE 40 STENA AB 2013 2,963 EMPLOYEES 6 MSEK REVENUE NUMBER OF SUBSIDIARIES OWNED 7,200 2 MSEK CAPITAL EMPLOYED NUMBER OF PARTLY OWNED ASSOCIATED COMPANIES LEMNHULT WIND FARM In May 2013, Southern Sweden’s largest landbased wind farm was opened in Lemnhult, in the municipality of Vetlanda. Valued at SEK 1.3 billion, it is the largest investment ever made in Vetlanda. The 32 wind turbines will produce an estimated 270 million kWh, or 70% of all electricity consumption in the municipality. A study1) has shown that in total the wind farm will create 685 jobs during the construction phase and over 20 years of operation, of which 525 during construction and 160 in operations. In addition, more jobs are being added outside the region. The effects of the construction on the regional economy are shown below: Gross regional product Estimated earned income Disposable income Municipal tax revenue MSEK 310 173 113 55 Besides the immediate effects, land lease payments of approximately SEK 130 million will be paid over the life of the farm, and Vindbonus® will sponsor local small businesses through SEK 320,000 in annual support. 1) S tudy by WSP. MARTIN SVALSTEDT > CEO In the years ahead, Stena Adactum’s development will be affected primarily by the Nordic electricity market, the recovery in global construction, consumption in the Nordic region and the European economic recovery. Stena Adactum is expanding through subsidiaries in emerging countries, while its operations in Europe are developing through a deeper and broader customer offering. There are still good growth opportunities in the portfolio companies. Potential investments in new businesses are continuously evaluated, and we have the financial capacity to take advantage of them. The main focus in recent years has been on expanding and strengthening profitability in existing operations, since this has produced the greatest value. The aim is to maintain the strength of our balance sheet, so that we can continue to develop and support the expansion of our businesses. History has proven the importance of being a strong, active and long-term owner. The stability we are now experiencing creates flexibility for product development and sound investments. Stena Adactum’s main focus is on working with long-term industrial development to build strong companies. STENA AB 2013 41 STENA AB > STENA ADACTUM Envac Envac is a leading global environmental technology company, supplying automatic waste collection systems for multi-family housing, hospitals and airports as well as optical sorting systems for household waste. The global construction sector, which is still affected by the financial crisis, is slowing the pace of growth in major residential areas. Despite a slightly lower order intake, Envac has increased its global market share and its order backlog amounted to SEK 2.4 billion at year-end 2013. The company has operations in 20 countries with offices in 38 major cities around the world. During the year, Envac reported further success in Asia and the Middle East, while the market in a number of European countries remains sluggish. Envac’s automated waste management systems are being installed in S ingapore, among other places, where the world’s most modern major city is being built. S-Invest (Blomsterlandet) The S-Invest Group consists of Blomsterlandet, a chain the 49 Swedish garden centres offering plants and supplies for the home and garden, and S-Blommor, a retailer with a shop-in-shop flower concept. New units in Eskilstuna, Enköping and Stockholm contributed to a revenue increase in 2013. During the year, the company also acquired Växtriket in Strömstad and Växthuset in Kristianstad. A new Blomsterlandet store opens in Göteborg in early 2014. Blomsterlandet’s customer loyalty club, Green Room, has over 300,000 members. Stena Renewable Stena Renewable has developed from a wind power project business to an established energy company and Sweden’s largest wind power producer. In 2013, 52 wind turbines were commissioned in Uddared, Grytsjö and Lemnhult, increasing the number of turbines to 86, with a combined capacity of 223 MW and total production capacity of 0.7 TWh. An additional ten turbines with a capacity of 17 MW are under construction and scheduled for commissioning in 2014. Production in 2013 was slightly lower than normal due to weaker winds during the second and third quarters. On an annual basis, production was 3% below normal yearly production. Sweden has had historically low electricity futures prices, and Stena Renewable expects prices to remain low. Despite the current price picture, economic conditions are favourable for Stena Renewable, since the majority of its investments have been made at competitive levels. Stena Renewable builds wind power to own and strives for long-term relationships with municipalities, local contractors, associations and the public. Wind power expansion is often greatly important to the local economy. The construction of the Lemnhult wind farm, for example, created over 500 jobs during a one-year period in Vetlanda, with municipal tax revenue in the range of SEK 55 million. The construction has also brought a fibre network to communities adjacent to the wind power farm; see the fact box on the previous page. Mediatec During the year, Mediatec was divided into two companies: Mediatec Broadcast and Mediatec Solutions. These two operating areas have different customer structures, technologies and business models, why a separation creates greater efficiencies. Mediatec Broadcast is a partner to major television networks. In 2013, the company was responsible for broadcasting technology used for the UEFA European Women’s Championship, the men’s world ice hockey championship and the Euro vision Song Contest. Mediatec Solutions is a project manager that provides display technology for athletic events and large corporate events. It also supplies large LED screens for arenas.

Gunnebo Gunnebo is an international group that provides integrated security solutions. Gunnebo has seen positive development in Asia, including the Asia Pacific region, as well as North and South America. The Group’s emphasis is shifting to emerging areas, which now accounts for 41% of consolidated revenue, compared to 10% in 2009. Gunnebo acquired the company Entrance Control in Korea during the year, in addition to opening sales offices in Thailand, Malaysia and Myanmar. The need for greater security, partly due to increased global cash handling, is benefiting Gunnebo. Midsona has successfully streamlined its business and owns a number of strong healthcare brands, and has made a number of acquisitions, for example Dalblads in Sweden and Supernature in Norway.

Stena Finance also manages the operational business units’ financial risks on the interest, foreign exchange and oil markets as well as the Group’s liquidity and financial investments. Another important role is to act as a resource for the operational units in identifying, analysing and implementing new business deals. The global economy continued to strengthen in 2013, albeit cautiously. This was particularly true of the USA, where the Federal Reserve’s fiscal measures acted as a stimulus, leading to a rise in stock prices. Other indicators, such as unemployment, household debt and rising wealth, also suggest that the US is entering a phase where growth is being driven by domestic factors. On the other hand, the economy in Europe has remained sluggish. Europe is recovering slowly from the deep-seated euro crisis. Across southern Europe, the economies were marked by high unemployment and low household expectations. Thanks to a relatively sound fiscal position, the Nordic countries have weathered the strain of the euro crisis well. In general, the Nordic stock exchanges have remained strong. Economic development in Asia showed considerable disparity. China, for example, was not greatly affected by the global LIQUIDITY1) Cash & cash equivalents 17% Equities 29% Fixed income 17% 1) S tena AB Group as of 31 December 2013 STENA AB 2013 Liquidity and financing The role of Stena Finance is to support other companies in the Stena Group, including managing the Group’s cash flow. Its task is to optimise the Group’s loan and bond profile and to manage liquidity in such a way that there are sufficient resources available when the loans and bonds mature. To achieve this, Stena Finance maintains a high level of liquidity, which ensures that the company’s cash flow requirements would be safeguarded if access to international capital were to be cut off. In January 2014, Stena issued a 10-year MUSD 600 million note in the US is to extend its amortisation profile and reduce debt under a revolving credit facility. In February 2014, Stena INTEREST-BEARING LIABILITIES1) Unutilised credit lines 37% 44 financial unrest in 2013 but Indonesia and India were less fortunate. There is rising growth across the region.

The bond and loans are secured by the vessels Stena DrillMAX and Stena Carron. This transaction was also designed to extend Stena’s maturity profile and free up liquidity. Liquidity also opens up good, long-term investment opportunities in equities and bonds. The Stena AB Group is funded largely through the banking system and the European and US bond markets. Together with credit facilities and vessel loans, this generates good financial strength and flexibility. Total available liquidity as of 31 December was SEK 12.2 billion. During the year, Stena Drilling contracted two drilling rigs for MUSD 800 each. Portfolio management Good growth on the international markets in which Stena Finance has invested capital could lead to significant appreciation in value. The year saw substantial increases in equity prices. The value of Stena Finance’s investments grew during the year, with an average yield of 19%. At year-end 2013, Stena Finance’s equity portfolio consisted of around 50 companies, the vast majority of which are listed Nordic, European, US and Asian enterprises. The positive trend applies not only to equity investments but also to investments in corporate bonds. The total value of Stena Finance’s equity and bond portfolio was SEK 6.0 billion as at 31 December 2013, compared with SEK 6.2 billion on 31 December 2012. PETER CLAESSON > CEO Stena has invested substantially in the vessel fleet in recent years. With good business acumen and high liquidity, Stena is able to seize business opportunities as they arise. As in 2013, however, the rate of investment in 2014 is likely to be lower than in recent years. Thanks to successful, long-term funding s olutions, the Group’s financial position remains strong. The majority of credit facilities and outstanding bonds do not mature until 2017.

In 2014, Concordia Maritime celebrates its 30th anniversary. The company’s B share is listed on NASDAQ OMX in Stockholm. Concordia Maritime’s shore-based organisation consists of only six people. A large part of daily operations in the form of chartering and crewing is instead purchased from partners inand outside the Stena Sphere. The close cooperation means that Concordia Maritime can operate cost effectively at the same time that it has unique access to world-leading expertise in all shipping areas. P-MAX: backbone of the fleet The ten P-MAX vessels are the backbone of the fleet. These product tankers combine the highest safety standards with economical transport and load flexibility. In terms of length and depth, they are comparable to a standard type medium range vessel (MR). Thanks to their hull design, these vessels can transport about 30% more cargo, yet fuel consumption is practically the same as a standard MR vessel under comparable conditions. 394 EMPLOYEES 1) TANKERS 1) O f whom employed on: vessels 388 and shore based staff: 6 54 STENA AB 2013 Five of the P-MAX tankers have been converted to IMO3 class, so besides carrying light and heavy bunker oil products they can also transport vegetable oils and light chemicals. Eight of the vessels are designed for ice class 1B and two for ice class 1A. The first of two product and chemical tankers in Stena’s IMOIIMAX series, which were designed in-house and ordered in 2012, will be delivered in late 2014. These 50,000 dwt tankers will be among the most sophisticated in the market and in the forefront in terms of cargo flexibility and energy efficiency. The business cycle has bottomed out The current business cycle has been very challenging for shipping companies around the world for several years. From this perspective, Concordia Maritime has managed well thanks to long-term contracts that bridged the years 2009–2012. Last 13 Stena Penguin is employed in Shell’s internal worldwide cargo system. The added capacity of the P-MAX is well-suited to such systems. year was something of a disappointment, however. After the first three quarters a clear improvement versus 2012 could be seen and the product tanker segment declined significantly at the start of the fourth quarter, partly due to seasonal reasons. At the end of the year the market changed with a major upswing, which continued into 2014. By all indications, the business cycle has now bottomed out and the product tanker market appears to gradually strengthen in the years ahead. This is partly due to the global recovery, which generally leads to higher demand for oil. There are a number of structural drivers as well, including changes in global refinery capacity and the shale gas boom in the US, which suggests increased demand for transports in niche segments such as product and chemical tankers.

KIM ULLMAN > CEO As the new CEO of Concordia Maritime, my focus is on improving the fleet’s utilisation rate and thereby raising earnings. Since the majority of our vessels are now employed in the spot market, we are well-positioned to benefit from the market’s expected turnaround. We are also trying to steer employment toward trader and chartering systems, where we can take full advantage of the P-MAX’s unique features. At the end of 2014 we take delivery of the first of two sophisticated product and chemical tankers. With their load flexibility and energy efficiency, these vessels will help us to stay profitable and create opportunities for growth. STENA AB 2013 55 STENA SPHERE > STENA METALL STENA METALL NEW SOLUTIONS THAT BENEFIT CUSTOMERS AND SOCIETY Stena Metall is one of three parent companies in the Stena Sphere. The Stena Metall Group recycles and trades ferrous and non-ferrous metals, aluminium and oil in around 250 locations in 13 countries, in addition to financial operations. Rec ycling can convert large amounts of society’s wastes to new, high quality raw materials that are put to use in new products. Our goal is to be a leader in every area where we are active. The financial year was characterised by deteriorating market conditions with falling volumes, declining scrap prices and overcapacity in the recycling industry. Market conditions put severe pressure on Stena Metall Group’s results. Thanks to increased marketing initiatives and a broader range of products and services, the Group was able to maintain its market share. Sales of the Group’s products in domestic and international markets remained good. One of Stena Metall’s goals is that customers should experience quality at every level. For this reason, all products and services are quality assured. Throughout the Group’s local operations, customers experience the core values that Stena Metall’s employees embrace in everything they do – simplicity, reliability and development. 3,595 EMPLOYEES 56 STENA AB 2013 In the current business climate, an action programme has been launched throughout the Group to improve results and adapt to current conditions. The actions will fully take effect in the financial year 2013/2014. The introduction of the Group’s own production model, Stena Way of Production, was successful and will help to increase productivity and coordination. Another positive example of the connection with value-added in every aspect of the business is the product and material training that the Group offers for every type of waste it handles. One major investment during the year was the modernisation of Stena Recycling’s shredding facility in Huddinge. The same applies to Stena Stål’s new high bay warehouse in Västerås and Stena Technoworld’s investment in an advanced metal recycling facility in Verona. 7 5,000,000 TONNES OF RECYCLED WASTE 250 LOCATIONS IN 13 COUNTRIES BUSINESS AREAS The chemical company Ineos, in Stenungsund, places high demands on environmental work and safety. With a total waste management solution from Stena Recycling, Ineos has provided all its employees with environmental training, while achieving significant savings and recovering more material. With a customer portal, Ineos can continuously monitor its waste streams and waste economy. Stena Recycling’s branch manager, Dan-Inge Andersson, met with Ingela Frössling, an environmental engineer at Ineos, to develop a recycling solution. Market At the beginning of the financial year (September 2012– August 2013), prices rose marginally for most of the Group’s key commodities, partly as a result of the monetary stimulus. After the end of the year, the trend reversed with a relatively sharp price decline. Viewed over the financial year as a whole, commodity prices, with few exceptions, ended higher than they began. The increased supply of raw materials and slowdown in emerging markets is likely to lead to an end to the raw material boom of the last decade.

ANDERS JANSSON > CEO At the time of writing in January 2014, the market is distinguished by continued uncertainty about growth prospects in the years ahead. We see only weak signs of improvement in our markets. Looking forward, we will increase the intensity of our sales efforts and continue to improve the quality of the industry- and customerspecific solutions we offer. With long-term owners and a strong business model based on dedicated business acumen, we have very good opportunities to further advance our positions in all our business areas.
