Highlights for the Second Quarter and Half Year Results Ended June 30, 2025:
In June 2025, we added one 6,014 TEU newbuilding containership to our orderbook, which has expected delivery in 2027. We took delivery of 6 newbuilding containerships in 2024 and 1 in January 2025.
Our remaining orderbook currently consists of 16 newbuilding containership vessels with an aggregate capacity of 134,234 TEU with expected deliveries of one vessel in 2025, three vessels in 2026, ten vessels in 2027 and two vessels in 2028. All the vessels in our orderbook are designed with the latest eco characteristics, will be methanol fuel ready, fitted with open loop scrubbers (except for two 6,014 TEU vessels) and Alternative Maritime Power (AMP) units and will be built in accordance with the latest requirements of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) in relation to Tier III emission standards and Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) Phase III.
We have secured multi-year charter arrangements for all of our 16 newbuilding vessels orderbook, with an average charter duration of approximately 5.2 years weighted by aggregate contracted charter hire.
Since the date of the previous earnings release, we added approximately $113 million to our contracted revenue backlog through a combination of a new charter for our recent containership newbuilding vessel and charter extensions for three of our existing container vessels.
As a result, total contracted cash operating revenues, on the basis of concluded charter contracts through the date of this release, currently stand at $3.6 billion, including newbuildings. The remaining average contracted charter duration for our containership fleet is 3.8 years, weighted by aggregate contracted charter hire.
Contracted operating days charter coverage for our container vessel fleet is currently 99% for 2025 and 88% for 2026. This includes newbuildings based on their scheduled delivery dates.
As of the date of this release, Danaos has repurchased a total of 2,937,158 shares of its common stock in the open market for $205.7 million under its recently upsized $300 million authorized share repurchase program that was originally introduced in June 2022 and was upsized twice in $100 million increments, in November 2023 and in April 2025.
Danaos has declared a dividend of $0.85 per share of common stock for the Second Quarter of 2025. The dividend is payable on August 28, 2025, to stockholders of record as of August 19, 2025.
Danaos’ CEO Dr. John Coustas commented:
As we move through the second half of the year, some uncertainties around global trade are beginning to subside. In particular, there is increasing clarity about tariffs, many of which have been or are being finalized at much lower rates than feared. While tariffs on imports to the U.S. will be much higher than historic averages, the U.S. economy is stable, and the American consumer keeps purchasing foreign goods. As inventories normalize, we anticipate a gradual improvement in trade flows.
Geopolitically, there have been no major shifts, with the conflicts in Ukraine and Gaza ongoing. The absence of further escalation is somewhat reassuring, though the potential for volatility remains elevated. We continue to monitor developments closely, but we have not seen any new disruptions to global shipping routes in the past quarter.
Against this backdrop, we are maintaining our disciplined approach to capital allocation. We are not broadly participating in the current wave of speculative ordering, particularly in the feeder segment, where pricing appears disconnected from long-term fundamentals, and are only pursuing investments that meet our return criteria. In the second quarter, we added one additional 6,000 TEU vessel to our orderbook at a shipyard with which we have an existing relationship. Importantly, this vessel has already been fixed on a five year charter to a long standing client, locking in visibility and attractive returns.
Our chartering strategy continues to deliver results. We added approximately $113 million to our contracted revenue backlog since the previous earnings release, and our $3.6 billion total contracted revenue base provides meaningful insulation from short-term market fluctuations. Our contracted charter coverage stands at 99% for 2025 and 88% for 2026, including newbuildings scheduled for delivery during this period.
On the dry bulk side, we saw some seasonal firming in the market, but broader weakness persists, largely due to deflationary conditions in China. While we continue to evaluate opportunities in the sector, asset values for modern tonnage remain elevated, and we are in no rush to commit capital in an uncertain macroeconomic environment.
From a financial perspective, we remain in an enviable position. With minimal leverage and a growing base of contracted earnings, we have the luxury of patience. Our strong balance sheet and cash generation capacity provide ample firepower to support our strategic priorities and position Danaos for long-term success. We continue to focus on disciplined execution, operational excellence, and value creation for our shareholders.
Three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024
During the three months ended June 30, 2025, Danaos had an average of 74 container vessels and 10 drybulk vessels compared to 68.7 container vessels and 7.6 drybulk vessels during the three months ended June 30, 2024. Our container vessels utilization for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 98.4% compared to 97.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2024. Our drybulk vessels utilization for the three months ended June 30, 2025 was 99.8% compared to 87.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Our adjusted net income amounted to $117.0 million, or $6.36 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $132.3 million, or $6.78 per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. We have adjusted our net income in the three months ended June 30, 2025 for a $14.7 million change in fair value of investments and a $0.8 million of non-cash finance fees amortization.
Adjusted net income of our container vessels segment amounted to $116.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $127.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. We adjusted net income of container vessels segment in the three months ended June 30, 2025 for a $0.8 million of non-cash finance fees amortization.
Adjusted net income of our drybulk vessels segment amounted to $0.3 million income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $2.3 million income for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
The $15.3 million decrease in adjusted net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily attributable to a $24.7 million increase in total operating expenses, a $3.6 million increase in net finance expenses, a $2.7 million decrease in dividends received, and a $0.2 million increase in equity loss on investments, partially off-set by a $15.9 million increase in operating revenues.
Please refer to the Adjusted Net Income reconciliation tables, which appear later in this earnings release.
On a non-adjusted basis, our net income amounted to $130.9 million, or $7.12 earnings per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net income of $141.2 million, or $7.23 earnings per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2024. Our net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 includes $14.7 million gain on marketable securities compared to $2.2 million gain on marketable securities in the three months ended June 30, 2024. On a non-adjusted basis, the net income of our container vessels segment amounted to $115.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $133.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2024. On a non-adjusted basis, the net income of our drybulk vessels segment amounted to $0.3 million net income for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $2.3 million income for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Operating RevenuesOperating revenues increased by $15.9 million, to $262.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $246.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Operating revenues of our container vessels segment increased by 3.9%, or $8.9 million, to $239.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $230.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, analyzed as follows:
$19.7 million increase in revenues as a result of newbuilding containership vessel additions;
$2.7 million increase in revenues as a result of higher fleet utilization between the two periods;
$8.2 million decrease in revenues as a result of lower charter rates between the two periods; and
$5.3 million decrease in revenues due to lower non-cash revenue recognition in accordance with US GAAP.
Operating revenues of our drybulk vessels segment increased by 44.3%, or $7.0 million, to $22.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $15.8 million of revenues in the three months ended June 30, 2024, analyzed as follows:
$6.9 million increase in revenues as a result of dry bulk vessel acquisitions; and
$0.1 million net increase in revenues as a result of higher dry bulk vessel utilization partially offset by lower charter rates between the two periods.
Vessel Operating ExpensesVessel operating expenses increased by $9.3 million to $56.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $47.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, primarily as a result of the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet due to container vessel newbuilding deliveries and dry bulk vessels acquisitions, combined with an increase in the average daily operating cost of our vessels to $7,556 per vessel per day for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $6,961 per vessel per day for the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to increased total repairs & maintenance expenses between the two periods. Management believes that our daily operating costs remain among the most competitive in the industry.
Depreciation & AmortizationDepreciation & Amortization includes Depreciation and Amortization of Deferred Dry-docking and Special Survey Costs.
DepreciationDepreciation expense increased by $5.3 million, to $40.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $35.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, due to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet.
Amortization of Deferred Dry-docking and Special Survey CostsAmortization of deferred dry-docking and special survey costs increased by $4.5 million to $11.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $7.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, reflecting a larger number of vessels drydocked for which vessels drydocking amortization costs were recognized during the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024.
General and Administrative ExpensesGeneral and administrative expenses decreased by $0.1 million, to $11.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $11.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Other Operating ExpensesOther Operating Expenses include Voyage Expenses.
Voyage ExpensesVoyage expenses increased by $4.1 million to $16.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $12.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly driven by a $3.6 million increase in voyage expenses of our dry bulk vessels, attributed to the different mix of time charter and voyage charter contracts under which our dry bulk vessels were deployed between the two periods.
Voyage expenses of our container vessels segment increased by $0.4 million to $8.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $8.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to increased commissions. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, total voyage expenses of our container vessels comprised of $8.5 million in commissions and $0.4 million in other voyage expenses, compared to $8.0 million in commissions and $0.5 million in other voyage expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Voyage expenses of our drybulk vessels segment increased by $3.7 million to $7.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $4.2 million voyage expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2024. For the three months ended June 30, 2025, voyage expenses of our drybulk vessels comprised of $1.5 million in commissions and $6.4 million in other voyage expenses, mainly comprised of bunkers cost and port expenses, compared to $0.9 million in commissions and $3.3 million in other voyage expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest Expense and Interest IncomeInterest expense increased by $4.6 million, to $9.7 million, in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $5.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in interest expense is a result of:
$3.5 million increase in interest expense due to an increase in our average indebtedness by $264.9 million between the two periods. Average indebtedness was $776.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to average indebtedness of $512.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was also partially offset by a decrease in our debt service cost by approximately 0.9% as a result of lower SOFR rates between the two periods;
$0.8 million increase in interest expense due to a decrease in the amount of interest expense capitalized on our vessels under construction that was $4.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to capitalized interest of $5.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024; and
$0.3 million increase in the amortization of deferred finance costs between the two periods.
As of June 30, 2025, our outstanding debt, gross of deferred finance costs, was $770.3 million, which included $262.8 million principal amount of our Senior Notes. These balances compare to debt of $577.8 million, which included $262.8 million principal amount of our Senior Notes, gross of deferred finance costs, as of June 30, 2024. The increase in our outstanding debt is due to loans drawn down to partially finance our container vessel newbuilding deliveries.
Interest income increased by $0.8 million to $3.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $2.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024, mainly driven by higher average cash balances between the two periods.
Gain on investmentsThe $15.0 million gain on investments in the three months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of the change in fair value of our shareholding interest in Star Bulk Carriers Corp. (“SBLK”) of $14.7 million and dividend income on these shares of $0.3 million. This compares to a $5.3 million gain on investments in the three months ended June 30, 2024, representing a $2.2 million change in fair value on our Star Bulk Carriers Corp. (“SBLK”) shareholding interest and dividend income on these shares of $3.1 million.
Equity loss on investmentsEquity loss on investments amounting to $0.3 million loss and $0.1 million loss in the three months June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, relates to our share of expenses of Carbon Termination Technologies Corporation (“CTTC”), currently engaged in the research and development of decarbonization technologies for the shipping industry.
Other finance expensesOther finance expenses increased by $0.1 million to $1.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $0.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Loss on derivativesAmortization of deferred realized losses on interest rate swaps remained stable at $0.9 million in each of the three months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.
Other income/(expenses), netOther income/(expenses), net amounted to an expense of $1.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to an expense of $0.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024.
Adjusted EBITDAAdjusted EBITDA decreased by 0.5%, or $0.8 million, to $176.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025 from $176.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2024. The decrease was attributed to (i) $14.6 million increase in total operating expenses, (ii) $0.1 million increase in net financing expenses, (iii) $2.7 million decrease in dividends received and (iv) $0.2 million increase in equity loss on investments offset by (v) $16.8 million increase in operating revenues.

The $41.9 million decrease in adjusted net income for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024 is primarily attributable to a $44.2 million increase in total operating expenses, a $9.7 million increase in net finance expenses, a $3.3 million decrease in dividends received, a $0.4 million increase in equity loss on investments, partially off-set by a $15.7 million increase in operating revenues.
Please refer to the Adjusted Net Income reconciliation tables, which appear later in this earnings release.
On a non-adjusted basis, our net income amounted to $246.1 million, or $13.24 earnings per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to net income of $291.7 million, or $14.92 earnings per diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2024.

On a non-adjusted basis, the net income / loss of our drybulk vessels segment amounted to $6.3 million loss for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $2.6 million income for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Operating RevenuesOperating revenues increased by $15.7 million, to $515.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $499.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Operating revenues of our container vessels segment increased by 2.5%, or $11.7 million, to $475.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $464.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, analyzed as follows:
$43.6 million increase in revenues as a result of newbuilding containership vessel additions;
$17.5 million decrease in revenues as a result of lower charter rates between the two periods;
$10.7 million decrease in revenues due to lower non-cash revenue recognition in accordance with US GAAP;
$3.5 million decrease in revenues as a result of lower fleet utilization between the two periods; and
$0.2 million decrease in revenues due to the disposal of one containership vessel.
Operating revenues of our drybulk vessels segment increased by 11.2%, or $4.0 million, to $39.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to $35.8 million of revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2024, analyzed as follows:
$13.0 million increase in revenues as a result of dry bulk vessel acquisitions; and
$9.0 million net decrease in revenues as a result of lower charter rates partially offset by higher fleet utilization between the two periods.
Vessel Operating ExpensesVessel operating expenses increased by $17.9 million to $108.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $90.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, primarily as a result of the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet due to container vessel newbuilding deliveries and dry bulk vessels acquisitions, combined with an increase in the average daily operating cost of our vessels to $7,294 per vessel per day for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $6,729 per vessel per day for the six months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to increased total repairs & maintenance expenses between the two periods. Management believes that our daily operating costs remain among the most competitive in the industry.
Depreciation & AmortizationDepreciation & Amortization includes Depreciation and Amortization of Deferred Dry-docking and Special Survey Costs.
DepreciationDepreciation expense increased by $11.5 million, to $80.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $69.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, due to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet.
Amortization of Deferred Dry-docking and Special Survey CostsAmortization of deferred dry-docking and special survey costs increased by $10.1 million to $22.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $12.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, reflecting a larger number of vessels drydocked for which vessels drydocking amortization costs were recognized during the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024.
General and Administrative ExpensesGeneral and administrative expenses increased by $1.9 million, to $23.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $21.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase was mainly attributable to $1.6 million higher management fees due to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet and a $0.3 million increase in corporate general and administrative expenses.
Other Operating ExpensesOther Operating Expenses include Voyage Expenses.
Voyage ExpensesVoyage expenses increased by $1.9 million to $34.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $33.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, mainly driven by a $1.4 million increase in commissions.
Voyage expenses of our container vessels segment increased by $1.0 million to $17.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, from $16.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, mainly due to increased commissions. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, total voyage expenses of our container vessels comprised of $17.0 million in commissions and $0.7 million in other voyage expenses compared to $15.8 million in commissions and $0.9 million in other voyage expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Voyage expenses of our drybulk vessels segment increased by $0.9 million to $17.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $16.3 million voyage expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2024. For the six months ended June 30, 2025, voyage expenses of our drybulk vessels comprised of $2.4 million in commissions and $14.8 million in other voyage expenses, mainly comprised of bunkers cost and port expenses, compared to $2.2 million in commissions and $14.1 million in other voyage expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Interest Expense and Interest IncomeInterest expense increased by $11.5 million, to $19.7 million, in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $8.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. The increase in interest expense is a result of:
$8.7 million increase in interest expense due to an increase in our average indebtedness by $314.4 million between the two periods. Average indebtedness was $777.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, compared to average indebtedness of $462.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. This increase was also partially offset by a decrease in our debt service cost by approximately 1% as a result of lower SOFR rates between the two periods;
$2.2 million increase in interest expense due to a decrease in the amount of interest expense capitalized on our vessels under construction that was $9.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025, when compared to capitalized interest of $11.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024; and
$0.6 million increase in the amortization of deferred finance costs between the two periods.
As of June 30, 2025, our outstanding debt, gross of deferred finance costs, was $770.3 million, which included $262.8 million principal amount of our Senior Notes. These balances compare to debt of $577.8 million, which included $262.8 million principal amount of our Senior Notes, gross of deferred finance costs, as of June 30, 2024. The increase in our outstanding debt is due to loans drawn down to partially finance our container vessel newbuilding deliveries.
Interest income increased by $1.5 million to $7.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $5.8 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024, mainly driven by higher average cash balances between the two periods.
Gain on investmentsThe $17.9 million gain on investments in the six months ended June 30, 2025 consisted of the change in fair value of our shareholding interest in Star Bulk Carriers Corp. (“SBLK”) of $17.2 million and dividend income on these shares of $0.7 million. This compares to a $17.2 million gain on investments in the six months ended June 30, 2024, representing an $13.2 million change in fair value on our Star Bulk Carriers Corp. (“SBLK”) shareholding interest and dividend income on these shares of $4.0 million.
Equity loss on investmentsEquity loss on investments amounting to $0.6 million and $0.2 million loss in the six months June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024, respectively, relates to our share of expenses of Carbon Termination Technologies Corporation (“CTTC”), currently engaged in the research and development of decarbonization technologies for the shipping industry.
Other finance expensesOther finance expenses increased by $0.3 million to $2.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to $1.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Loss on derivativesAmortization of deferred realized losses on interest rate swaps remained stable at $1.8 million in each of the six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024.
Other income/(expenses), netOther income/expenses, net amounted to expense of $0.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to income of $0.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.
Adjusted EBITDAAdjusted EBITDA decreased by 1.8%, or $6.3 million, to $347.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $354.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024. This decrease was attributed to (i) a $22.5 million increase in total operating expenses, (ii) a $0.4 million increase in net finance expenses, (iii) a $3.3 million decrease in dividends received and (iv) a $0.4 million increase in equity loss on investments partially offset by (v) a $20.3 million increase in operating revenues (excluding $4.5 million decrease in amortization of assumed time-charters). Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2025 is adjusted for a $17.2 million change in fair value of investments and stock based compensation of $0.3 million.
Adjusted EBITDA of container vessels segment decreased by 0.1%, or $0.2 million, to $343.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 from $343.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2024.

We define Operating Days as the total number of Ownership Days net of Scheduled off-hire days (days associated with scheduled repairs, drydockings or special or intermediate surveys or days) and net of off-hire days associated with unscheduled repairs or days waiting to find employment but including days our vessels were sailing for repositioning. The shipping industry uses Operating Days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues or are sailing for repositioning purposes. Our definition of Operating Days may not be comparable to that used by other companies in the shipping industry. |
|
2) |
Time charter equivalent US$/per day (“TCE rate”) represents the average daily TCE rate of our container vessels segment and drybulk vessels segment calculated dividing time charter equivalent revenues of each segment by operating days of each segment. TCE rate is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period to period changes in a shipping company’s performance despite changes in the mix of charter types i.e., voyage charters, time charters, bareboat charters under which its vessels may be employed between the periods. Our method of computing TCE rate may not necessarily be comparable to TCE rates of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. We include TCE rate, a non- GAAP measure, as it provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with operating revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, and it assists our management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our operating vessels and assists investors and our management in evaluating our financial performance. |

1 The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. See the Table above for supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024. The non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures as presented above may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in the shipping or other industries. |

Adjusted EBITDA(1) |
$716,338 |

|
1) |
Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest income and expense, depreciation, amortization of deferred drydocking & special survey costs, amortization of assumed time charters, amortization of deferred finance costs and commitment fees, amortization of deferred realized losses on interest rate swaps, adjusted for the change in fair value of investments, stock based compensation, loss on debt extinguishment and net gain on disposal/sale of vessels. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA assist investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The non-GAAP financial measures as presented above may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in the shipping or other industries.
|
|
Note: Items to consider for comparability include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting net income are reflected as deductions to net income. Charges negatively impacting net income are reflected as increases to net income.

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users of this financial information additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. See the Tables above for supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the three and six months ended June 30, 2025 and June 30, 2024. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP. |

Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest income and expense, depreciation, amortization of deferred drydocking & special survey costs, amortization of assumed time charters, amortization of deferred finance costs and commitment fees, amortization of deferred realized losses on interest rate swaps and adjusted for the change in fair value of investments and stock based compensation. However, Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measurement under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, or “GAAP.” We believe that the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA is useful to investors because it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA assist investors and analysts in comparing our performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. The non-GAAP financial measures as presented above may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies in the shipping or other industries.
|
|
Note: Items to consider for comparability include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting net income are reflected as deductions to net income. Charges negatively impacting net income are reflected as increases to net income.
