Second Quarter 2023 Results:

• Revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $59.0 million, an increase of $47.7 million, or 422.1%, compared to revenues of $11.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the increase of our average fleet by approximately six vessels leading to an increase in fleet calendar days by 97.8% (530 days) and an increase of tanker market rates leading to a rise in fleet daily revenue by approximately $35,500.
• Voyage expenses and vessels’ operating expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2023 were $19.3 million and $7.0 million, respectively, compared to $4.4 million and $3.3 million, respectively, for the three months ended June 30, 2022. The $14.9 million increase in voyage expenses is mainly due to the increase in the spot days of our fleet by 541 days (280.3%) and to our fleet- wide daily port expenses by approximately $3,750 due to a higher number of spot voyages. The $3.7 million increase in vessels’ operating expenses was primarily due to the increase in the average number of our vessels.
• Drydocking costs for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0.7 million and nil, respectively. This increase is due to the fact that during the three months ended June 30, 2023 one of our Handysize drybulk carriers the Eco Glorieuse underwent drydocking.
• General and administrative costs for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $1.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. This increase is mainly attributed to a $0.8 million increase in stock-based compensation costs along with an increase in reporting costs related to our spin off project.
• Depreciation for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $4.6 million and $2.7 million, respectively. The change is attributable to the increase in the average number of our vessels.
• Interest and finance costs for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $0.5 million and $0.2 million, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2023 the Company repaid all of its outstanding debt. The $0.5 million charges for the three months ended June 30, 2023 relate mainly to the full amortization of loan related charges following the repayment of the Company’s outstanding debt.
• Interest income for the three months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $0.9 million and $0.04 million, respectively. The increase is attributed to our time deposits during the period at favourable time deposit rates.
• Impairment loss for the three months period ended June 30, 2023 stood at $9.0 million, and related to the spin-off of two of four drybulk carriers to C3is Inc. The decline of drybulk vessels’ fair values compared to one year ago when these vessels were acquired resulted in the incurrence of impairment loss.
• As a result of the above, for the three months ended June 30, 2023, the Company reported net income of $16.8 million, compared to net income of $0.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022. Dividends paid on Series A Preferred Shares amounted to $0.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2023. The weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding, basic, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 was 16.8 million. Earnings per share, basic and diluted, for the three months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $0.91 and $0.73, respectively, compared to a loss per share, basic and diluted, of $0.44 and $0.44, respectively for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
• Adjusted net income was $26.6 million corresponding to an Adjusted EPS, basic of $1.46 for the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to an Adjusted net income of $0.1 million corresponding to an Adjusted loss per share, basic, of $0.44 for the same period of last year.
• EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $21.0 million, while Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $30.8 million. Reconciliations of Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Income are set forth below.
• An average of 11.8 vessels were owned by the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2023 compared to 6.0 vessels for the same period of 2022.

Six Months 2023 Results:

• Revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2023 amounted to $124.5 million, an increase of $108.0 million, or 654.5%, compared to revenues of $16.5 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, primarily due to the increase in the average number of our vessels and improved market conditions resulting in higher rates particularly in the spot tanker market.
• Voyage expenses and vessels’ operating expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2023 were $36.1 million and $13.9 million, respectively, compared to $4.9 million and $5.1 million, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2022. The $31.2 million increase in voyage expenses is mainly due to the increase in the spot days of our fleet by 1,009 days (458.6%). The $8.8 million increase in vessels’ operating expenses was primarily due to the increase in the average number of vessels in our fleet by approximately six vessels.
• Drydocking costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $1.3 million and nil, respectively. This increase is due to the fact that during the six months ended June 30, 2023 two of our Handysize drybulk carriers underwent drydocking.
• General and administrative costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $2.5 million and $0.5 million, respectively. This rise is mainly attributed to $1.1 million of stock-based compensation expense along with a rise in reporting costs related to our spin off project.
• Depreciation for the six months ended June 30, 2023 was $8.7 million, a $3.8 million increase from $4.9 million for the same period of last year, due to the increase in the average number of our vessels.
• Interest and finance costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 were $1.8 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The $1.8 million of costs for the six months ended June 30, 2023 relate mainly to $1.3 million of interest charges incurred up to the full repayment of all outstanding loans concluded in April 2023 along with the full amortization of $0.5 million of loan related charges following the repayment of the Company’s outstanding debt.
• Interest income for the six months ended June 30, 2023 and 2022 was $2.1 million and $0.04 million, respectively. The increase is attributed to our time deposits during the period at favourable time deposit rates.

CEO Harry Vafias Commented

Within the first six months of 2023 our company managed to generate an adjusted net income of $62.6 million corresponding to a Basic Earnings Per Share of $3.79 which is well above our current share price. Compared to the first six months of 2022 our increase in net income was in the order of 20,500%. Our strong performance is unquestionable but so is the fact that we are significantly undervalued. We have a fleet valued at about $225 million, zero debt and about $100 million in cash. The outlook for the tanker market remains favourable whereas there might be opportunities in the dry bulk sector as dry ship values are dropping. We will continue to capture this favourable momentum generating strong results while growing our Company further.

Reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS:

Adjusted net income represents net income before impairment loss and share based compensation. EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, interest income and depreciation. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income before interest and finance costs, interest income, depreciation, impairment loss, and share based compensation.

Adjusted EPS represents Adjusted net income divided by the weighted average number of shares. EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. Our calculation of EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS may not be comparable to that reported by other companies in the shipping or other industries. In evaluating Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted net income and Adjusted EPS, 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.

EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted EPS are included herein because they are a basis, upon which we and our investors assess our financial performance. They allow us to present our performance from period to period on a comparable basis and provide investors with a means of better evaluating and understanding our operating performance.
