Key information and management commentary

 

·The Company paid a dividend of approximately $22.5 million, or $0.70 per share, in September 2025.

 

·Voyage expenses for Q3 2025 of $29.7 million, down from $32.0 million in Q3 2024. The 7% decrease is mostly attributable to lower port expenses.

 

·Interest and finance costs for Q3 2025 of $11.0 million, down from $14.2 million in Q3 2024. The decrease is mainly due to a decrease in total indebtedness from $645.6 million as of December 31, 2024 to $616.6 million as of September 30, 2025, along with a decrease in the margin payable under our existing loans.

 

·The Company recorded a profit of $24.1 million in Q3 2025, compared to a profit of $14.5 million in Q3 2024. The increase derives mainly from the increased revenues generated from operations.

 

·TCE revenue in Q3 2025 increased by 15%, compared to Q3 2024, primarily due to a corresponding incline in TCE rates.

 

·In October 2025, the Company declared its option to repurchase the VLCC Nissos Rhenia under its sale and leaseback agreement.

 

·In November 2025, the Company declared its option to repurchase the VLCC Nissos Despotiko under its sale and leaseback agreement.

 

Fleet

 

As of September 30, 2025, the Company’s fleet was comprised of the following 14 vessels with an average age of 6.1 years and aggregate capacity of approximately 3.5 million deadweight tons:

USE AND RECONCILIATION OF ALTERNATIVE PERFORMANCE MEASURES

 

The Company together with its wholly owned subsidiaries, (the “Group”) evaluates its vessels’ operations and financial results principally by assessing their revenue generation (and not by the type of vessel, employment, customer, or type of charter). Among others, TCE, Daily TCE rate, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Daily Opex, Adjusted Profit/(loss) and Adjusted Earnings/(loss) per share are used as key performance indicators.

 

Daily TCE rate

 

In the shipping industry, economic decisions are based on vessels’ deployment upon anticipated TCE rates and time charter equivalent revenue, and industry analysts typically measure shipping freight rates in terms of TCE rates. This is because under time-charter and bareboat contracts the customer usually pays the voyage expenses, while under voyage charters the ship-owner usually pays the voyage expenses, which typically are added to the hire rate at an approximate cost. In a voyage charter contract, consideration is received for the use of a vessel between designated ports for the duration of the voyage only, at an agreed upon rate per volume of cargo carried. In a time charter contract, the customer (also known as the charterer) is responsible to pay for fuel consumed and port expenses incurred during the agreed period of time. In a voyage charter contract, the Company is responsible for maintaining the voyage, including vessel scheduling and routing, as well as any related voyage expenses, such as fuel, port and other expenses. Under voyage charters, the majority of voyage expenses are generally borne by us whereas for vessels in a time charter, such expenses are borne by the time charter operator. In a bareboat charter, the customer pays for all of the vessel’s operating expenses, and undertakes to maintain the vessel in a good state of repair and efficient operating condition and drydock the vessel during this period as per the classification society requirements. We may incur voyage related expenses when positioning or repositioning vessels before or after the period of a time or other charter, during periods of commercial waiting time or while off-hire during drydocking or due to other unforeseen circumstances. Because of the different nature of these types of arrangements, the amount of revenues earned by the Company can differ significantly between them.

 

The Daily Time Charter Equivalent Rate (“TCE rate”) is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. The TCE rate and time charter equivalent revenue (TCE) are not measures of revenue under generally accepted accounting principles (i.e., they are non-GAAP measures) or IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of revenue and financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS. We calculate the TCE rate by dividing revenues (time charter and/or voyage charter revenues), less commission and voyage expenses (which then equals “time charter equivalent revenue”), by the number of operating days (we define operating days as calendar days less any scheduled or unscheduled days that our vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen technical and commercial circumstances) during that period. Our calculation of the TCE rate and time charter equivalent revenue may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. We define calendar days as the total number of days the vessels were in our possession for the relevant period. Calendar days are an indicator of the size of our fleet during the relevant period and affect the amount of expenses that we record during that period. We and other companies in the shipping industry use operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period that our vessels generate revenues. The period a vessel is not being chartered or is unable to perform the services for which it is required under a charter is “off-hire”.

 

We use the TCE rate and time charter equivalent revenue because they provide a means of comparison between different types of vessel employment and, therefore, assists our decision-making process with regards to the operation and use of our vessels and in evaluating our financial performance. We believe the TCE rate and time charter equivalent revenue provide additional meaningful information to our investors, constituting a comparison to Revenue, the most directly comparable GAAP and IFRS measure, that also enables our management to evaluate the performance and deployment of our fleet and in evaluating their financial performance. The TCE rate and time charter equivalent revenue are measures used to compare period-to-period changes in a company’s performance, and management believes that the TCE rate and time charter equivalent revenue provide meaningful information to our investors.

Daily Opex

 

Daily Opex per vessel is an alternative performance measure that provides meaningful information to our management with regards to our vessels’ efficiency and deployment. Daily Opex is not a measure under generally accepted accounting principles (i.e., it is a non-GAAP measure) or IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of expenses and financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS. Our reconciliation of daily Opex, including management fees, may deviate from that reported by other companies. We believe Daily Opex provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with Vessel operating expenses, the most directly comparable GAAP and IFRS measure, because it provides meaningful information to our investors in evaluating our financial performance. Also, it is an alternative measure that provides meaningful information to our management with regards to our vessels’ efficiency and deployment.

 

Daily Opex is calculated as vessel operating expenses and technical management fees divided by calendar days, for the relevant periods.

 

The following table sets forth our reconciliation of daily Opex (unaudited) for the periods presented:

 

   For the Three months   For the Nine months

Total vessel operating expenses  $12,898,527   $12,636,134   $37,224,998   $36,328,219 
Calendar days   1,288    1,288    3,822    3,836 
Daily Opex  $10,014   $9,811   $9,740   $9,470 
Daily Opex excluding management fees  $9,114   $8,911   $8,840   $8,570 

 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Profit and Adjusted Earnings per share

 

Earnings before interest, tax, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is an alternative performance measure, derived directly from the statement of profit or loss and other comprehensive income by adding back to profit/(loss) depreciation, amortization, interest and finance costs and subtracting interest income. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as EBITDA before non-recurring items, unrealized losses/(gains) on derivatives, realized losses/(gains) on derivatives, foreign exchange (gains)/losses, (gain)/loss from loan modifications and loss on debt extinguishment. Adjusted profit/(loss) is defined as reported profit/(loss) before non-recurring items, unrealized losses/(gains) on derivatives, impairment loss, loan modification gain/(loss), loss on debt extinguishment and gain/(loss) on disposal of vessels, if any. Adjusted earnings/(loss) per share is defined as adjusted profit/(loss) divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding in the period.

 

Furthermore, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted profit/(loss) and Adjusted earnings/(loss) per share have certain limitations in use and should not be considered alternatives to reported profit/(loss), operating profit, cash flows from operations, earnings per share or any other GAAP or IFRS measure of financial performance. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted profit/(loss) and Adjusted earnings/(loss) per share exclude some, but not all, items that affect profit/(loss).

 

12

 

 

EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Profit and Adjusted Earnings per share are not measures of profit under generally accepted accounting principles (i.e., they are non-GAAP measures) or IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of revenue and financial performance presented in accordance with IFRS. EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Profit and Adjusted Earnings per share are used as supplemental financial measures by management and external users of financial statements to assess our operating performance. We believe that EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Profit and Adjusted Earnings per share assist our management and our investors by providing useful information that increases the comparability of our operating performance from period to period and against our previous performance and the operating performance of other companies in our industry that provide relevant information. We believe EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Profit and Adjusted Earnings provide additional meaningful information in conjunction with profit, the most directly comparable GAAP and IFRS measure, because they provide meaningful information in evaluating our financial performance.

 

Our method of computing EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted profit/(loss) and Adjusted earnings/(loss) per share may not be consistent with similarly titled measures of other companies and, therefore, might not be comparable with other companies.
