Voyage revenue

 

The Company enters into time charter arrangements on its vessels. As at December 31, 2024, the non-cancellable arrangements had remaining terms between one day to nine months, assuming redelivery at the earliest possible date. As at December 31, 2023, the non-cancellable arrangements had remaining terms between nil days to eight months, assuming redelivery at the earliest possible date. Future net minimum lease revenues receivable under non-cancellable operating leases as at December 31, 2024 and 2023, were as follows (vessel off-hires and drydocking days that could occur but are not currently known are not taken into consideration and early delivery of the vessels by the charterers is not accounted for):

 

 

  2024   2023
Within one year 19,316   8,060
Total 19,316   8,060

 

 

These amounts include consideration for other elements of the arrangement apart from the right to use the vessel such as maintenance and crewing and its related costs.

 

For time charters that qualify as leases, the Company is required to disclose lease and non-lease components of lease revenue. The revenue earned under time charters is not negotiated in its two separate components, but as a whole. For purposes of determining the standalone selling price of the vessel lease and technical management service components of the Company’s time charters, the Company concluded that the residual approach would be the most appropriate method to use given that vessel lease rates are highly variable depending on shipping market conditions, the duration of such charters and the age of the vessel. The Company believes that the standalone transaction price attributable to the technical management service component, including crewing services, is more readily determinable than the price of the lease component and, accordingly, the price of the service component is estimated using data provided by its technical department, which consist of the crew expenses, maintenance and consumable costs and was approximately $14,676 and $16,473 for year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The lease component that is disclosed then is calculated as the difference between total revenue and the non-lease component revenue and was $19,856 and $14,367 for the year ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively.

Commitments under shipbuilding contracts

The two vessels will be built at a reputable shipyard in Japan and are scheduled to be delivered during the second half of 2026. The total consideration for the construction of both vessels is approximately $75.5 million (absolute amount), which the Company intends to finance with a combination of debt and equity.
