The Company generates revenue primarily from ferry operations, chartering out its owned, chartered-in and leased Roll-on/Roll-off vessels, tankers and drilling rigs, managing tankers, sales of vessels and real estate rents. The period from June through September is the peak travel season for passengers in the ferry operations. Chartering activities are not significantly affected by seasonal fluctuations, but variations over the year may occur as a consequence of, among other things, vessel utilization rates, dry-docking and charter rates. Any sale or acquisition of vessels, drilling rigs and real estate also may have an impact on the results of each period.

Highlights of the first nine months of 2010

In February 2010, we committed to invest approximately GBP 80 million in a new ferry port facility at Loch Ryan in Scotland for the future development of our Scotland–Northern Ireland route. The construction work is expected to take approximately 20 months and be completed in 2012. A Harbor Empowerment Order (HEO) to allow the creation of the new port has been granted by the Scottish government.

In February 2010, we entered into an agreement to sell the RoPax vessel Götaland, with delivery in September 2010 at a gain of SEK 5 million.

In March 2010, we issued a ten-year bond in the amount of EUR 200 million with a coupon of 7.875% and maturity in 2020.

In April 2010, we redeemed all of our outstanding 7.5% Senior Notes due 2013 (representing U.S. dollar 153 million in aggregate principal amount) at a price of $102.5% of par value.

In April 2010, Stena Renewable acquired five new wind power systems near Härnösand, Sweden, for a cash price of SEK 56 million.

On May 7, 2010, the first of our two superferries, Stena Hollandica, was delivered from the German shipyard Wadan Yards in Wismar. The vessel commenced operation on the Hoek van Holland/Harwich route from mid May. The second vessel, Stena Britannica, was delivered on September 29, 2010. After delivery of these superferries, the former Stena Hollandica and Stena Britannica (to be renamed Stena Germanica and Stena Scandinavica, respectively) have been moved from the North Sea to the Gothenburg–Kiel route and the current Stena Germanica and Stena Scandinavica (to be renamed Stena Vision and Stena Spirit) will be moved to the Karlskrona– Gdynia route. All four vessels will undergo extensive renovations. The Gothenburg-Travemünde route was closed on September 1, 2010 as a result of the increased freight capacity of the new vessels on the Gothenburg – Kiel route. The two vessels formerly on the Gothenburg-Travemünde route, Stena Carrier and Stena Freighter, are being moved to the route Rotterdam-Harwich.

In May 2010, a Suezmax tanker was ordered from Samsung, South Korea, for delivery in 2013.

In May 2010, Stena RoRo has, on behalf of Stena Line, reached an agreement with Marine Atlantic to charter Stena Trader and Stena Traveller, previously operating on Hoek van Holland and Killingholme, for five years with the right to extend the agreement for two five-year periods. Marine Atlantic is a Canadian Federal Crown Corporation and is responsible for the ferry crossing between Nova Scotia and Newfoundland. The vessels will be customized according to Marine Atlantic’s requirements. Marine Atlantic also has the right to purchase the vessels.

In June 2010, we sold the joint venture Crowley Shipping for a gain of SEK 19 million.

In July 2010, Stena RoRo purchased the previously leased vessel Borja, and the vessel was renamed Baltic Amber.

In July 2010, Stena Line acquired 51% of a company that owns the port of Karlskrona in Sweden, for a cash price of SEK 127 million.

SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

Stena Transfer and Stena Partner, two vessels that operated on the route Rotterdam-Harwich, have been sold.

New charter contracts have been entered into for the drilling units Stena Don and Stena Spey whereby the units are contracted until Q4 2013 and Q4 2011, respectively.

Currency effects

The Company's revenues and expenses, reported in Swedish kronor, are significantly affected by fluctuations in currency exchange rates, primarily relative to the U.S. dollar, the British pound (GBP) and the Euro. We seek to mitigate the impact of potential adverse foreign currency exchange fluctuations by matching, to the extent possible, revenues and expenses in the same currency. In addition, we enter into certain derivative financial instruments. Although the Company seeks to hedge the net effect of such fluctuations, our reported gross revenues and expenses are influenced by changes in the currency rates. In the nine months ended September 30, 2010, approximately 33% of the Company's total revenues were generated in U.S. dollars, approximately 26% were generated in SEK, approximately 18% were generated in Euros and approximately 11% were generated in GBP. Also, approximately 26% of the Company's total expenses were incurred in U.S. dollars, approximately 32% were incurred in SEK, approximately 15% were incurred in GBP and approximately 12% were incurred in Euros. The exchange rates as used for consolidation purposes are as follows:
