Vessel Management
PYXIS MARITIME CORP. (“Maritime”), a corporation established under the laws of the Republic of the Marshall Islands, which is beneficially owned by Mr. Valentios (Eddie) Valentis, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Class I Director, provides certain ship management services to the Vessel-owning companies, including but not limited to chartering, financing and accounting, sale and purchase, insurance, operations, dry-docking and construction supervision, for a fixed daily fee per vessel, under a head management agreement (the “Head Management Agreement”).
The Company uses the services of Konkar Shipping Agencies, S.A. (“Konkar Agencies”), a dry-bulk ship management company with its principal office in Greece and which is beneficially owned by Mr. Valentis, our Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and Class I Director. Konkar Agencies is engaged under separate management agreement directly by the Company’s respective bulker Vessel-owning companies to provide a wide range of shipping services, including but not limited to, chartering, technical, sale and purchase, insurance, operations and dry-docking and construction supervision, all provided at a fixed daily fee per bulker. The management agreement for the dry-bulkers have an initial term of five years. The management agreement will automatically be renewed for consecutive five year periods, or until terminated by either party on three months’ notice.
With effect from the delivery of each tanker, the crewing and technical management of the vessels were contracted to INTERNATIONAL TANKER MANAGEMENT LTD. (“ITM”) with permission from Maritime. ITM is an unrelated third party technical manager, represented by its branch based in Dubai, UAE. Each ship-management agreement with ITM continues by its terms until it is terminated by either party. The ship-management agreements may be cancelled by us or ITM for any reason at any time upon three months’ advance notice.

Results of Operations
Our revenues consist of earnings under the charters on which we employ our vessels. We believe that the important measures for analyzing trends in the results of our operations consist of the following:
Revenues, net
We generate revenues by chartering our vessels for the transportation of petroleum products and other liquid bulk items, such as organic chemicals, and dry-bulk commodities. Revenues are generated primarily by the number of vessels in our fleet, the number of voyage days employed and the amount of daily charter hire earned under vessels’ charters. These factors, in turn, can be affected by a number of decisions by us, including the amount of time spent positioning a vessel for charter, dry-dockings, repairs, maintenance and upgrading, as well as the age, condition and specifications of our ships and supply and demand factors in the product tanker market. As of August 8, 2025, all the six of our vessels in our fleet were employed in short term time charters. Revenues from time charter agreements providing for varying daily rates are accounted for as operating leases and thus are recognized on a straight line basis over the term of the time charter as service is performed. Revenue under spot charters is recognized from loading of the current spot charter to discharge of the current spot charter. Vessels operating on time charters provide more predictable cash flows, but can yield lower profit margins than vessels operating in the spot market during periods characterized by favorable market conditions. The vessel owner generally pays commissions on both types of charters on the gross charter rate. Address commissions represent a discount provided directly to the charterers based on a fixed percentage of the agreed upon charter and is presented as a reduction in revenues.
Time Charters
A time charter is a contract for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time during which the charterer pays substantially all of the voyage expenses, including port and canal charges and the cost of bunker (fuel oil), but the vessel owner pays vessel operating expenses, including the cost of crewing, insuring, repairing and maintaining the vessel, the costs of spares and consumable stores and tonnage taxes. Time charter rates are usually set at fixed rates during the term of the charter. Prevailing time charter rates fluctuate on a seasonal and on a year-to-year basis and, as a result, when employment is being sought for a vessel with an expiring or terminated time charter, the prevailing time charter rates achievable in the time charter market may be substantially higher or lower than the expiring or terminated time charter rate. Fluctuations in time charter rates are influenced by changes in spot charter rates, which are in turn influenced by a number of factors, including vessel supply and demand. The main factors that could increase total vessel operating expenses are crew salaries, insurance premiums, spare parts orders, repairs that are not covered under insurance policies and lubricant prices.
Spot Charters
Generally, a spot charter refers to a contract to carry a specific cargo for a single voyage, which commonly lasts from several days up to three months. Spot charters typically involve the carriage of a specific amount and type of cargo on a load-port to discharge-port basis, subject to various cargo handling terms, and the vessel owner is paid on a per-ton basis. Under a spot charter, the vessel owner is responsible for the payment of all expenses including its capital costs, voyage expenses (such as port, canal and bunker costs) and vessel operating expenses. Fluctuations in spot charter rates are caused by imbalances in the availability of cargoes for shipment and the number of vessels available at any given time to transport these cargoes at a given port.
Voyage Related Costs and Commissions
We incur voyage related costs for our vessels operating under spot charters, which mainly include port and canal charges and bunker expenses. Port and canal charges and bunker expenses primarily increase in periods during which vessels are employed on spot charters because these expenses are for the account of the vessel owner. Brokerage commissions payable for both spot and time charter contracts, if any, depend on a number of factors, including, among other things, the number of shipbrokers involved in arranging the charter and the amount of commissions charged by brokers related to the charterer. Such commissions are deferred and amortized over the related period in a charter to the extent revenue has been deferred since commissions are earned as revenues are earned.
Vessel Operating Expenses
We incur vessel operating expenses for our vessels operating under time and spot charters. Vessel operating expenses primarily consist of crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the cost of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses necessary for the operation of the vessel. All vessel operating expenses are expensed as incurred.
General and Administrative Expenses
The primary components of general and administrative expenses consist of the annual fee payable to Maritime for the administrative services under our Head Management Agreement, which is described in more detail in our 2024 Annual Report and provides for the services of our senior executive officers, and the expenses associated with being a public company. Such public company expenses include the costs of preparing public reporting documents, legal and accounting costs, including costs of legal and accounting professionals and staff, and costs related to compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the SEC, the rules of the Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”), the Company’s board of directors’ (the “Board”) compensation and investor relations.

Management Fees
We pay management fees to Maritime, Konkar Agencies and ITM for commercial and technical management services for our vessels. These services include: obtaining employment for our vessels and managing our relationships with charterers; strategic management services; technical management services, which include managing day-to-day vessel operations, ensuring regulatory and classification society compliance, arranging our hire of qualified officers and crew, arranging and supervising dry-docking and repairs and arranging insurance for vessels; and providing shore-side personnel who carry out the management functions described above. As part of their ship management services, they provide us with supervision services for new construction of vessels; these costs are capitalized as part of the total delivered cost of the vessel.
Depreciation
We depreciate the cost of our vessels after deducting the estimated residual value, on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of each vessel, which is estimated to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Scrap rate of $340/light weight ton is used to calculate the residual value of our vessels.
Special Survey and Dry-docking
We are obliged to periodically drydock each of our vessels for inspection, and to make significant modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. Generally, each vessel is drydocked every 30 to 60 months for scheduled inspections, depending on its age. The capitalized costs of dry-dockings for a given vessel are amortized on a straight-line basis to the next scheduled drydocking of the vessel.
Interest Income, Interest and Finance Costs
We have historically incurred interest expense and financing costs in connection with the debt incurred to partially finance the acquisition of our existing fleet. Our current debt agreements bear interest based on the SOFR rate. To mitigate our exposure to interest rate fluctuations, one of our vessel-owning subsidiaries previously entered into an interest rate cap agreement. We may explore additional hedging strategies in the future to further manage this risk. Further, we earn interest on cash deposits in interest-bearing accounts and on interest-bearing securities, which is included in interest income. “Interest Income” from time deposits of $857 recognized during the half year in the accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Statement of Comprehensive Income/(Loss) as of June 30, 2025.
In evaluating our financial condition, we focus on the above financial and operating measures as well as fleet and vessel type for utilization, time charter equivalent (“TCE”) rates and operating expenses to assess our operating performance. We also monitor our cash position and outstanding debt to assess short-term liquidity and our ability to finance further fleet expansion. Discussions about possible acquisitions or sales of existing vessels are based on our financial and operational criteria which depend on the state of the charter market, availability of vessel investments, employment opportunities, anticipated dry-docking costs and general economic prospects.

(1) | Ownership days are the total number of days in a period during which we owned each of the vessels in our fleet. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues generated and the amount of expenses incurred during the respective period. | |
(2) | Available days are the number of ownership days in a period, less the aggregate number of days that our vessels were off-hire due to scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and intermediate dry-dockings and the aggregate number of days that we spent positioning our vessels during the respective period for such repairs, upgrades and surveys. Available days measures the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues. | |
(3) | Operating days are the number of Available days in a period, less the aggregate number of days that our vessels were off-hire or out of service due to any reason, including technical breakdowns and unforeseen circumstances. Operating days measures the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues. | |
(4) | We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of Operating days during a period by the number of Available days during the same period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the amount of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys and intermediate dry-dockings or vessel positioning. | |
(5) | Daily TCE rate is a standard shipping industry performance measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel on a per voyage basis. TCE is not calculated in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”). We utilize TCE because we believe it is a meaningful measure to compare period-to-period changes in our performance despite changes in the mix of charter types (i.e., spot charters, time charters and bareboat charters) under which our vessels may be employed between the periods. Our management also utilizes TCE to assist them in making decisions regarding employment of the vessels. We believe that our method of calculating TCE is consistent with industry standards and is calculated by dividing voyage revenues after deducting voyage expenses, including commissions, by Operating days for the relevant period. Voyage expenses primarily consist of brokerage commissions, port, canal and bunker costs that are unique to a particular voyage, which would otherwise be paid by the charter under a time charter contract. |
7 |
(6) | Daily vessel operating expenses are direct operating expenses such as crewing, provisions, repairs and maintenance, insurance, deck and engine stores, lubricating oils and tonnage tax divided by Ownership days. | |

Results of Operations
Six months ended June 30, 2024 and 2025
Amounts relating to variations in period–on–period comparisons shown in this section are derived from the interim Condensed Consolidated Financials presented below (Amounts are presented in million U.S. dollars, rounded to the nearest one hundred thousand, except as otherwise noted).
Revenues, net: Revenues, net of $18.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, represented a decrease of $7.0 million, or 27.1%, from $25.7 million in the comparable period of 2024. In the first half of 2025, our average daily TCE rate for our MR fleet was $22,049, a $10,288 per day decrease from $32,337 for the same period in 2024. The decline in Revenues, net, was the result of softer charter rates as well as lower operating days of 514 in the first half of 2025 in comparison to 536 in the same period of 2024. Also, in the most recent period, our dry-bulk average daily TCE rate was $12,919, a $7,192 per day decrease from $20,111 for the same period in 2024. This decrease was the result of lower dry-bulk charter rates offset by higher utilization to 90.8% in comparison to 78.5% in the same period of 2024. Total fleet ownership days in the first half of 2025 were 1,086 or an average of 6.0 vessels, compared with 867 days, or an average of 4.8 vessels, for the same period of 2024. This increase was due to the acquisition of the two Kamsarmax dry-bulk vessels, “Konkar Asteri” and “Konkar Venture” in February and June, 2024.
Voyage related costs and commissions: Voyage related costs and commissions of $1.6 million in the first half of 2025, represented a decrease of $1.7 million, or 52.6%, from $3.3 million in the same period of 2024, primarily as a result of lower spot employment for our MRs from 172 days in the six-month period in 2024 to 61 days in the same period of 2025 as well as by higher utilization in bulkers from 78.5% in the six-month period in 2024 to 90.8% in the same period of 2025. Under spot charters, all voyage expenses are typically borne by us rather than the charterer and a decrease in spot employment results in decreased voyage related costs.
Vessel operating expenses: Vessel operating expenses of $7.0 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, represented an increase of $0.8 million, or 13.9%, from $6.1 million in the same period of 2024, reflecting the expansion of our dry-bulk fleet in 2024. Vessel ownership days for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 were 1,086 days compared to 867 for the same period of 2024.
General and administrative expenses: General and administrative expenses were $4.6 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025 represented an increase of $3.0 million, from $1.5 million in the same period of 2024. The first half of 2025 included a one-off long-term prior performance bonus paid to Maritime. Excluding this item, General and administrative expenses remained relatively consistent with the prior year period. Administrative fees payable to Maritime also reflect inflationary cost pressures, including the 2024 inflation adjustment rate of 2.74% in Greece.
Management fees: For the six months ended June 30, 2025, management fees charged by Maritime, Konkar Agencies and ITM, increased by $0.2 million to $0.9 million. The increase was primarily driven by the further expansion of our fleet in the dry-bulk sector and the impact of inflationary conditions, including the application of the 2024 Greek inflation rate adjustment of 2.74% to the fees charged by the two affiliated ship managers.
9 |
Amortization of special survey costs: Amortization of special survey costs of $0.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, represented an increase of $0.1 million compared to the same period in 2024. The increase reflected the commencement of amortization for two special surveys performed on our dry-bulk vessels, “Konkar Venture” and “Konkar Asteri” which were completed in the Spring of 2025.
Depreciation: Depreciation of $3.8 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2025, represented an increase of $0.7 million, or 21.2%, compared to $3.1 million in 2024. The increase reflected additional depreciation related to the acquired bulkers “Konkar Asteri” and “Konkar Venture”.
Interest and finance costs, net: Interest and finance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2025, were $2.9 million, represented a decrease of $0.1 million, or 4.2%, compared to the same period of 2024. This reduction was primarily driven by lower average debt levels and lower SOFR based interest rates paid on all the floating rate bank debt, as well as amendments made in 2024 to two of our loan agreements relating to the “Pyxis Lamda” and the “Pyxis Theta” which reduced interest rate margins.
Interest income: Interest income of $0.9 million received during the six months ended June 30, 2025, decreased $0.4 million compared to the same period in 2024, due to lower interest rates on deposits.
Loss attributable to non-controlling interest: Loss attributable to the NCI for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $0.16 million, compared to a gain of $0.05 million in the same period of 2024. This reflected the share of results attributable to the NCI in the joint ventures that own the bulkers “Konkar Ormi” and “Konkar Venture”.
Cash Flows
Our principal sources of funds for the six months ended June 30, 2025, have been cash from our operating activities. Our principal uses of funds have been the working capital requirements, the debt service payments on our loan agreements and repurchase of common shares. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash as of June 30, 2025, amounted to $28.8 million, compared to $22.6 million as of December 31, 2024. As of June 30, 2025, we had a working capital surplus of $30.8 million compared to working capital surplus of $33.9 million as of December 31, 2024. We define working capital as current assets minus current liabilities.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $7.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $10.7 million for the same period in 2024. The net loss for the period was $1.4 million compared to net income of $8.9 million for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, contributing $10.3 million less operating cash. Aggregate movements in working capital accounts, current assets and current liabilities, increased cash by $4.7 million. This increase was mainly attributable to the $2.6 million increase from trade accounts receivable, net, $2.1 million from movement to related parties’ balances and $1.2 million increase from hires collected in advance, offset by $1.0 million special survey cost. Other accounts aggregate decrease by a net $0.2 million.
Investing Activities
Net cash provided by investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2025, was $2.8 million. This was primarily driven by a $3.0 million cash inflow from short-term investments in time deposits with maturities over three months, partially offset by a $0.2 million cash outflow related to vessel additions.
The same period in 2024, net cash used in investing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2024 was $42.0 million, a result of the “Konkar Asteri” and “Konkar Venture” vessel acquisitions which were delivered in February 2024 and June 2024, respectively. The “Konkar Asteri” had a purchased price of $26.6 million of which $24.0 million paid during the period, and the “Konkar Venture” had a purchase price of $30.0 million which settled with a $28.5 million cash payment and the issuance of 267,857 restricted common shares to the related party seller. The $21.0 million are included in the investing activities and the remaining amount of $7.5 million is presented as deemed dividend in financing activities described below. The above outflows were partially offset by $3.0 million cash inflow from short-term investment in cash time deposits with maturity over three months.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $4.2 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2025, primarily reflected on aggregate $3.9 million of debt principal payments. In addition, we paid $0.3 million during January 2025 under the amended $3.0 million share re-purchase program, which was completed in January 2025.
For the six month period ended June 30, 2024, mainly reflected new long-term debt of $14.5 million and $16.5 million for Drytwo, secured by the “Konkar Asteri”, and for Drythree, secured by the “Konkar Venture”, respectively, partially counterbalanced by repayment of the financing fees payments of $0.3 million related to the new loan facilities and on aggregate of $3.3 million of debt principal payments. In addition, during the first half of 2024 we paid $2.5 million for the redemption of 100,000 shares of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Series A Preferred Shares”). Also, we paid $0.4 million dividends related to the Series A Preferred Shares. Additionally, we repurchased 83,780 common shares at an average price of $4.53 per share, including brokerage commissions, for an aggregate $0.4 million under the amended $3.0 million share re-purchase program. Further, we received a $5.9 million contribution from the non-controlling interest of our joint venture. Upon acquisition of the “Konkar Venture”, the purchase price in excess of the seller’s vessel book valued at the date of the transaction, at $7.5 million, which was considered a deemed dividend by the Company and was allocated to Pyxis Tankers equity and NCI’sequity in accordance with their ownership percentages.

Debt Agreements
For information relating to our debt agreements, please see Note 8 to our financial statements included in our 2024 Annual Report for the year ended December 31, 2024 and Note 7 to our unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the six month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2025 included elsewhere herein.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal sources of liquidity have been cash flows from operations, borrowings from bank debt and our related parties, private placement of common stock and issuance of convertible preferred shares and we expect in the future, cash flow from operations, proceeds from further issuances of equity and debt as well as re-financings of debt. Recognizing the uncertainty caused by the potential impact of the Russian-Ukrainian war, the Red Sea and Israel-Hamas armed conflict, we expect that our future liquidity requirements should relate primarily to:
● | our vessel operating expenses, including dry-docking and special survey costs; | |
● | payments of interest and other debt-related expenses and the repayment of principal on our loans; | |
● | payment of technical and commercial management fees for our daily vessel operations; | |
● | maintenance of cash reserves to provide for contingencies and to adhere to minimum liquidity for loan covenants including potential dry-docking reserves; and | |
● | potential vessel acquisitions and joint ventures. |
We expect to rely upon operating cash flows from the employment of our vessels on spot and time charters and, upon occasion, amounts due to related parties, long-term borrowings and the proceeds from future equity and debt offerings to fund our liquidity and capital needs and implement our growth plan. We perform on a regular basis cash flow projection to evaluate whether we will be in a position to cover our liquidity needs for the next 12-month period and be in compliance with the financial and security collateral cover ratio covenants under the existing debt agreements. In developing estimates of future cash flows, we make assumptions about the vessels’ future performance, with significant assumptions relating to time charter equivalent rates by vessel type, vessels’ operating expenses, vessels’ capital expenditures, fleet utilization, our management fees, general and administrative expenses and debt servicing requirements. The assumptions used to develop estimates of future cash flows are based on historical trends as well as future expectations. As of June 30, 2025, we had a working capital surplus of $30.8 million, defined as current assets minus current liabilities. As of the filing date of the first half of 2025 unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we expect that we will be in a position to cover our liquidity needs for the next 12-month period, through cash generated from operations and by managing our working capital requirements. In addition, the Company may consider the raising of capital including debt, equity securities, joint ventures and/or sale of assets for corporate and strategic reasons.
Our business is capital intensive and our future success will depend on our ability to maintain a high-quality fleet through the acquisition of modern tanker vessels, the selective sale of older tanker vessels and investments in joint ventures, including other shipping sectors.
While we have previously paid cash dividends on our Series A Preferred Stock, which has now been fully redeemed, we do not intend to pay dividends to the holders of our common shares in the near future and expect to retain our cash flows primarily for the payment of vessel operating costs, dry-docking costs, debt servicing and other obligations, general corporate and administrative expenses and reinvestment in our business (such as to fund vessel or fleet acquisitions), in each case, as determined by our Board.
On February 15, 2024, the Company completed the acquisition of an 82,013 dwt dry-bulk vessel built in 2015 at Jiangsu New Yangzi Shipbuilding. The $26.625 million purchase price of the eco-efficient Kamsarmax was funded by a combination of secured bank debt of $14.5 million and cash on hand. The vessel has been named the “Konkar Asteri” and commenced its commercial operations on February 29, 2024.

On May 16, 2024, our Board of Directors authorized an increase of $1.0 million in incremental repurchase authority under our Repurchase Program, bringing the total aggregate amount authorized under the plan to $3.0 million. Our Board of Directors also extended the Repurchase Program through May 16, 2025. On January 30, 2025, we fully utilized the remaining amount under our previously authorized $3.0 million common share repurchase program. During the six month period ended June 30, 2025, we repurchased 67,534 PXS common shares at an average price of $3.91 per share, excluding brokerage commissions, or $264 thousand in total. As of the date of this release, our common share repurchase program has expired.
On June 20, 2024, the Company paid $2.5 million for the redemption of 100,000 shares of our Series A Cumulative Convertible Preferred Stock (formerly NASDAQ Cap Mkts: PXSAP). Upon this redemption, 100,000 PXSAP shares were cancelled by the Company and the Company’s obligation to pay dividends in respect of these shares ceased. After this partial redemption, which resulted in a reduction of 446,429 in fully-diluted common shares, there were 303,631 PXSAP shares outstanding.
On June 28, 2024, we closed our dry-bulk joint venture with an entity related to our Chairman and Chief Executive Officer for the acquisition of an 82,099 dwt eco-efficient Kamsarmax built in 2015 at Jiangsu New Yangzi Shipbuilding. The $30.0 million purchase price for the “Konkar Venture”, which is fitted with a ballast water treatment system, was funded by a combination of secured bank debt of $16.5 million, $12.0 million cash, of which the Company contributed $7.3 million in cash, and the issuance of 267,857 restricted common shares to the related party seller. Pyxis owns a 60% controlling ownership interest in the joint venture. The “Konkar Venture”, is a sister ship to the Company’s eco-efficient “Konkar Asteri”, and continued its employment under the existing time charter through mid-August, 2024. Upon delivery of the dry-bulk carrier, on June 28, 2024, Drythree drew down an amount of $16,500. The loan balance amounting is repayable in 20 quarterly installments of $315 each, with the last installment accompanied by a balloon payment of $10,200 falling due in June 2029. The loan bears interest at SOFR plus a margin of 2.15% per annum. Standard loan covenants of the loan include, among others, a minimum liquidity and a minimum security cover ratio (“MSC”).
On July 30, 2024, we agreed with an existing lender to refinance the Seventhone Corp debt. The amended loan agreement provides a five year amortizing bank loan, due July 2029, with similar quarterly repayments, priced at SOFR plus 2.40% (from 3.35%) and is secured by, among other things, the vessel “Pyxis Theta”. In addition, the same lender agreed to reduce the interest margin from 3.15% to 2.40% applicable to the Eleventhone Corp. (“Pyxis Lamda”) credit facility which matures in December 2026.
On October 20, 2024 all remaining outstanding Series A Preferred Shares were redeemed at the Liquidation Preference of $25.00 per share for an aggregate payment of $7.6 million in cash.
On March, 2025 “Konkar Venture” successfully completed her second special survey, within 22 days.
On April, 2025 “Konkar Asteri” successfully completed her second special survey, with 12 days of work performed during the first quarter of 2025 and the remaining 10 days of work completed in April 2025.
On June 30, 2025, we had a total of 10,485,865 common shares issued and outstanding of which Mr. Valentis beneficially owned 57.3%, and 1,592,465 outstanding warrants (NASDAQ Cap Mkts: PXSAW), which have an exercise price of $5.60 and expire October 13, 2025 (excluding the non-tradeable underwriter’s common stock purchase warrants of which 107,143 and 1,986 have exercise prices of $8.75 and $5.60, respectively).
Results of Annual Meeting of Shareholders of May 20, 2025
At the scheduled annual 2025 shareholder meeting, the Company’s shareholders re-elected Mr. Aristides Pittas as Class II Director to serve for a term of three years until the 2028 annual meeting.
Subsequent Events
On July 30, 2025 the Company closed a commitment from an existing bank for a “hunting license” loan facility of up to $45 million (the “Facility”) to finance the potential acquisition of up to two modern vessels, consisting of product tankers between 45-115K dwt. and/or dry bulk carriers between 60-85K dwt. Advances under the Facility, which can be as much as 62.5% of vessel purchase value, can be drawn-down anytime for a period of up to 18 months after closing of the Facility. The balance of the purchase consideration for the vessel(s) would consist of cash equity on hand from the Company. Borrowings under the Facility would have an interest rate of SOFR + average margin of 1.9%. Each advance under the Facility would be repaid on a quarterly basis over five years from drawdown. The Facility would be secured by, among other things, any vessels acquired with the proceeds of the Facility and contains certain standard financial and other covenants. The Company will incur a nominal fee payable to the lender during the drawdown period of the Facility.

11. | Risk Management and Fair Value Measurements: - Continued: |
Interest rate risk: The Company’s loan interest rates are currently calculated at SOFR plus a margin, as described in Note 7 above, hence, the Company is exposed to movements in SOFR. SOFR is the successor index to LIBOR for our bank loans. In order to hedge its variable interest rate exposure, previously, the Company via one of its vessel-owning subsidiaries, purchased an interest rate cap. In the future, we may consider the use of additional financial hedging products to further limit our interest rate exposure.
Credit risk: Credit risk is minimized since trade accounts receivable from charterers are presented net of the expected credit losses. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, primarily with high credit qualified financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of those financial institutions that are considered in the Company’s investment strategy. On the balance sheet date there were no significant concentrations on credit risk. The maximum exposure to credit risk is represented by the carrying amount of each financial asset on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
Currency risk: The Company’s transactions are denominated primarily in U.S. dollars; therefore, overall currency exchange risk is limited. Balances in foreign currency other than U.S. dollars are not considered significant.
Fair value: The Management has determined that the fair values of the assets and liabilities as of June 30, 2025, are as follows:
Carrying | Fair | |||||||
Value | Value | |||||||
Cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) | $ | $ | ||||||
Short-term investment in time deposits | $ | $ | ||||||
Trade accounts receivable | $ | $ | ||||||
Prepayments and other current assets | $ | $ | ||||||
Trade accounts payable | $ | $ | ||||||
Long-term debt with variable interest rates | $ | $ | ||||||
Due to related parties | $ | $ |
The
Company performs an impairment exercise whenever there are indicators of impairment.
Assets measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis: Long lived assets held and used and held for sale
As
of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, the Company reviewed the carrying amount in connection with the estimated recoverable amount
for each of its vessels held and used. This review indicated that such carrying amount was fully recoverable for the Company’s
vessels held and used.
As of December 31, 2024 and June 30, 2025, the Company did not have any other assets or liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis.
12. | Commitments and Contingencies: |
Minimum contractual charter revenues: The Company employs certain of its vessels under lease agreements. Time charters typically may provide for variable lease payments, charterers’ options to extend the lease terms at higher rates and termination clauses. The Company’s contracted time charters as of June 30, 2025, range from one to six months, with varying extension periods at the charterers’ option and do not provide for variable lease payments. Our time charters contain customary termination clauses which protect either the Company or the charterers from material adverse situations.

Other: Various claims, suits and complaints, including those involving government regulations and environmental liability, arise in the ordinary course of the shipping business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers, agents, insurance and other claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Company’s vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims not covered by insurance or contingent liabilities, which should be disclosed, or for which a provision has not been established in the accompanying unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
