Its harbours are navigable and easily accessible through the year and deep enough to receive all vessels passing through the Danish Straits. Estonia’s geographical location is favourable for handling both north-south and east-west passenger and cargo flows. Tallinna Sadam owns two passenger harbours (the Old City Harbour and the Saaremaa Harbour) and two cargo harbours (the Muuga Harbour and the Paldiski South Harbour). In terms of the number of passengers served, Tallinn Old City Harbour is the third-largest harbour on the Baltic Sea (after Helsinki and Stockholm) and the fourth-largest in Northern Europe. The Muuga Harbour is Estonia’s largest cargo harbour. Tallinna Sadam offers port services as a landlord port, i.e. it owns, administers and develops berths and port basins, leases land to cargo operators, organises vessel traffic in port basins and ensures safe navigation in port waters. Tallinna Sadam owns passenger terminals and other facilities required for passenger service but cargo harbour superstructure belongs to cargo operators. Waste management ser- vice in harbours is provided by AS Green Marine, an associate of Tallinna Sadam that offers innovative waste handling solutions. 1 Tallinna Sadam is also the owner of Paljassaare Harbour where activities have ceased because the company has decided to exit from it. TALLINNA SADAM AT A GLANCE / BUSINESS MODEL 6 TRANSLATION OF THE ESTONIAN ORIGINAL Ice-breaker- Botnica Muuga Harbour Old City Harbour Old City Marina Paldiski South Harbour Ferry transfer to islands Saaremaa Harbour From the end of 2016, Tallinna Sadam also operates ferries and provides passenger transport between Estonia’s mainland and two largest islands – Saaremaa and Hiiumaa – through its subsidiary OÜ TS Laevad. The Group owns five ferries and the routes served are the busiest domestic ferry routes. The Group’s other subsidiary, OÜ TS Shipping, is also involved in shipping. It owns the multifunctional icebreaker Botnica which provides icebreaking services in North Estonian ports and harbours in the winter season and in the summer season operates as an icebreaker and offshore construction vessel in the Arctic waters. The real estate business line is still in the preparatory phase. To execute the development plan of the Old City Harbour, in autumn 2018 we submitted applications to Tallinn City Planning Department, requesting proceedings for the adoption of detailed plans consistent with Masterplan 2030. Proceedings for the adoption of a detailed plan for the southern part of the Old City Harbour are already underway. The Group’s operating segments, presented in financial accounting, differ somewhat from its business lines. Operating segments are Passenger harbours, Cargo harbours, Ferry and Other. The Passenger harbours seg- ment comprises provision of port services at harbours mainly involved in passenger service – the Old City Harbour and the Saaremaa Harbour – and real estate development in the Old City Harbour. The Cargo harbours segment comprises provision of port services at harbours focused on cargo handling – the Muuga Harbour and the Paldiski South Harbour – and activities related to industrial parks created in these harbours. The Ferry segment comprises the activities of OÜ TS Laevad, i.e. the provision of passenger transport between Estonia’s mainland and two biggest islands. The segment Other mainly includes the operation of the multifunctional icebreaker Botnica by the subsidiary OÜ TS Shipping and the profit/loss on investments in the associate AS Green Marine (accounted for under the equity method). Segment results are presented in section 2.5 of the management report and note 3 to the consolidated financial statements.

Tallinna Sadam was listed on the stock ex- change and the stock became very popular among Estonian retail investors. Altogether, around 14,000 local Estonian retail investors and reputable institutional investors well-known in international capital mar- kets trusted us and decided to invest in the shares of Tallinna Sadam. For many Estonian people, it was their first stock market investment. The Estonian state, as the majority owner, and our new shareholders have shown their faith in us and we undertake to keep our promises. We are a modern and profitable company and see opportunities for delivering our owners stable returns by operating efficiently in each of our four business lines. I am sure that the strong results for 2018 will be celebrated by both, the company and its owners. However, in society Tallinna Sadam has also a wider mission. Through our business of being a tour- ist gateway and a creator of public space, a ship owner and a cargo traffic hub, we contribute to the achievement of important national strategic objectives, which include improving Estonia’s competitive- ness as a maritime nation.
