Average number of vessels is the number of vessels that constituted our owned fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of days each operating vessel was a part of our owned fleet during the period divided by the
number of calendar days in that period.
|
(2) |
As of the last day of the periods reported.
|
(3) |
Average age of our operational fleet is calculated as of the end of each period.
|
(4) |
Ownership days are the total calendar days each vessel in the fleet was owned by us for the relevant period, including vessels subject to sale and leaseback transactions and finance leases.
|
(5) |
Available days for the fleet are the Ownership days after subtracting off-hire days for major repairs, dry docking or special or intermediate surveys, change of management and vessels’ improvements and upgrades. The available days for each
period presented were also decreased by off-hire days relating to disruptions in connection with crew changes as a result of COVID-19. Available Days, as presented above, may not necessarily be comparable to Available Days of other companies,
due to differences in methods of calculation.
|
(6) |
Charter-in days are the total days that we charter-in vessels not owned by us.
|
(7) |
Time charter equivalent rate represents the weighted average daily TCE rates of our operating fleet (including owned fleet and fleet under charter-in arrangements). TCE rate is a measure of the average daily net revenue performance of our
vessels. Our method of calculating TCE rate is determined by dividing (a) TCE Revenues, which consists of: voyage revenues (net of voyage expenses, charter-in hire expense, amortization of fair value of above/below market acquired time
charter agreements, if any, as well as adjusted for the impact of realized gain/(loss) on forward freight agreements (“FFAs”) and bunker swaps) by (b) Available days for the relevant time period. Available days do not include the Charter-in
days as per the relevant definitions provided above. Voyage expenses primarily consist of port, canal and fuel costs that are unique to a particular voyage, which would otherwise be paid by the charterer under a time charter contract, as well
as commissions. In the calculation of TCE Revenues, we also include the realized gain/(loss) on FFAs and bunker swaps as we believe that this method better reflects the chartering result of our fleet and is more comparable to the method used
by some of our peers. TCE Revenues and TCE rate, which are non-GAAP measures, provide additional meaningful information in conjunction with voyage revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because they assist our management in
making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and because we believe that they provide useful information to investors regarding our financial performance. 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 and pool arrangements) under which its vessels may be
employed between the periods. TCE Revenues and TCE rate, as presented above, may not necessarily be comparable to those of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP liquidity measures. Please see EXHIBIT I at the end of this release for a reconciliation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net Cash
Provided by / (Used in) Operating Activities, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP, as well as for the definition of each measure. To derive Adjusted EBITDA from EBITDA,

|
Daily OPEX per vessel is calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by Ownership days (defined below). Daily OPEX per vessel (which excludes non-recurring expenses) is
calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses minus any non-recurring items (such as, increased costs due to the COVID-19 pandemic or pre-delivery expenses, if any) by Ownership days. In the future we may incur expenses that are the same
as or similar to certain non-recurring expenses that were previously excluded.
|
(5)
|
Daily Net Cash G&A expenses per vessel is calculated by (1) adding the Management fee expense to the General and Administrative expenses (net of share-based compensation
expense and other non-cash charges) and (2) then dividing the result by the sum of Ownership days and Charter-in days (defined below). Please see EXHIBIT I at the end of this release for a reconciliation to General and administrative
expenses, which is the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
|
–
|
We were able to repurchase a large block of shares at a significant discount to our Net Asset Value.
|
|
–
|
We have funded the above repurchase mostly from vessel sales at attractive historical prices during 2023.
|
|
–
|
Recently we sold shares through our ATM program at an average price of $19.81/share, locking in a favorable arbitrage.
