The Court upheld the Judge's factual finding that MISC had agreed to bear the transhipment costs, so OOCL did not in fact incur those costs and could not recover them from the defendants; and in assessing loss of hire OOCL must be credited for slot‑hire savings resulting from deployment of OOCL Japan, so damages are calculated on OOCL's net out‑of‑pocket loss. Consequently the appeal was dismissed.
