TORM, a leading global owner and operator of tankers, experienced its highest-ever yearly earnings in 2022 with a net profit of $365 million, primarily due to increased freight rates amid geopolitical events like the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The company's financial strength is evident in its capital structure, with debt levels well below equity levels and a net debt of $669.2 million, significantly lower than the previous year's figure of over $1 billion. Despite the volatile nature of the product tanker market, TORM's strong balance sheet and predicted continued strength in the market due to high demand for refined products and the EU ban on Russian oil products make it a good investment, with a buy rating.
Global growth outlooks are ebbing, casting doubts on the demand picture for oil and impacting tanker companies like TORM plc. TORM's profits may be negatively impacted by falling tanker rates and geopolitical tensions leading to higher freight rate volatility. Despite high earnings uncertainty, TORM's technical situation indicates a trading range with support around $23 and resistance at $37.

Oaktree, the majority shareholder of TORM, which owns about 65% of the company's Class A common shares, started selling 5 million shares. However, there is no need to be panicked, as the company's fundamentals suggest that TORM is on the right path.
