Yujin International Ltd ("Yujin" or "the Group")

Yujin International Ltd, the owner and charterer of a fleet of tankers operating in the Asia Pacific region is pleased to announce its unaudited interim results for the six months ended 30(th) June 2011.

Key Points

v Shipping Revenue increased 17% from US$ 6.4 million to US$ 7.5 million.

v Fuel costs increased 35% year on year, partially offset by higher charter freight rates in the Spot Market.

v The charters of the Group's four bunker tankers were all renewed for another 12 months with their existing charterers.

v An asset revaluation exercise carried out in this period has led to greater depreciation charges for its owned tankers, in turn contributing to an operating loss for the period.

v Yujin expects business to remain difficult in the current challenging shipping environment in the Asia Pacific region.

CHAIRMAN'S STATEMENT

The Board of Yujin International Ltd. ("Yujin", the "Company" or the "Group") is pleased to present its interim financial report for the six months ended 30 June 2011. During the period the Group recorded an increase in total revenue of US$ 2.3 million to US$ 9.6 million but incurred a loss before taxation of US$ 0.3 million.

Shipping Revenue increased 17% year on year as spot prices increased as a result of higher fuel costs which market will factor in the spot charter rates. However, on the other side, these higher fuel costs as well as higher depreciation charges resulted in an operating loss for the first six months.

A summary of the Group's unaudited revenue and operating profit for the six months ended 30 June 2011 and comparative figures for the same period in 2010 is presented below:

REGIONAL TANKERS

As previously announced, the impact of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that rocked Japan has negatively affected the shipping industry in the Asia Pacific region. The chemical trading pattern changed to smaller cargo parcels, lowering average tonnage per shipment.

In the Spot Charter market, higher freight rates reflected the market condition as well as variable costs including fuel costs. In spite of smaller cargo parcels, the higher freight rates resulted in our regional tankers revenue increasing USD 0.6 million to USD 2.7 million.

However, fuel costs went up 35% year on year and this, together with higher depreciation charges following an asset revaluation exercise pursuant to IAS 36 accounting standard's requirements during the period, resulted in the Regional Tankers incurring an operating loss of USD 0.9 million.

In this continuing difficult trading environment, the chartering team have had to continue to accept smaller cargo parcels. High fuel costs are expected to remain and higher depreciation will continue to be charged.

BUNKER TANKERS

Yujin's Bunker Tankers business continued to perform well. The Group's four tankers are on Time Charter and were all renewed for another 12 months with the current charterers.

As the Bunker Tankers revenue is denominated in Singapore Dollars, the increase in revenue was due to weakening United States Dollar, amounting to USD 0.4 million.

The reduction in operating profit was due to higher depreciation charges which went up USD 0.5 million compared to June 2010. The asset revaluation exercise carried out this year increased all the four vessels valuation, resulting in higher depreciation charge.

SHIP MANAGEMENT AND RELATED ACTIVITIES

Yujin, through its wholly owned subsidiary, JR Orion, managed the six vessels owned by the Group plus eleven vessels owned by third parties. The level of activity in this segment has stayed relatively stable in the six months to 30 June 2011.

CURRENT TRADING AND OUTLOOK

Looking ahead, the company faces a challenging operating environment due to an uncertain economic landscape, higher operating costs and the continued pressure from an oversupplied market in relation to its Regional Tankers business.

Included in deposits and prepayments, as at 30 June 2010 and 31 December 2010, were payments towards the new builds at the initial stage. These payments were transferred to "vessels under construction" under the property, plant and equipment account, once construction work began.

6. Dividend

No dividend has been declared or paid in this interim period.

7. Operating segment

IFRS 8 requires operating segments to be identified on the basis of internal reports about components of the Group that are regularly reviewed by the chief operating decision makers in order to allocate resources to the segment and to assess its performance. The primary format is based upon the Group's management and internal reporting structure which reflects the statutory subsidiaries of the Group. Segment results constitute items directly attributable to the business. Certain centrally funded costs are allocated to the business segments to arrive at operating profits or losses. The Group's reportable segments are as follows :

1. Bunker tanker chartering

2. Regional tanker chartering

3. Ship management and other related shipping activities.

The Group occasionally trades in marine fuel oil. This activity does not have a significant impact on the Company's profitability as the trades are done on cost plus a thin margin to cover administrative costs associated with the trades. The aggregate amount of the marine fuel oil trade is disclosed in the financial statements. The Board does not consider this to be a core business segment activity. It is carried out as an additional service to support selected customers.

The segmented revenue and their corresponding operating profit and loss are presented below.
