INTERNATIONAL SEAWAYS REPORTS

SECOND QUARTER 2024 RESULTS

 

New York, NY – August 7, 2024– International Seaways, Inc. (NYSE: INSW) (the “Company,” “Seaways,” or “INSW”), one of the largest tanker companies worldwide providing energy transportation services for crude oil and petroleum products, today reported results for the second quarter 2024.

 

HIGHLIGHTS & RECENT DEVELOPMENTS

 

Strong Quarterly Earnings:

 

· Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $144.7 million, or $2.91 per diluted share.

 

· Adjusted net income(1) for the second quarter of 2024 was $118.0 million, or $2.37 per diluted share.

 

· Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the second quarter of 2024 was $167.0 million.

 

Fleet Optimization Program:

 

· Took delivery of six eco MRs, built between 2014 and 2015, in the second quarter of 2024.

 

· Sold three MRs with an average age of 15.8 years, for net proceeds of $72 million after fees and commissions. Two vessels were delivered to the buyers during the second quarter of 2024 and the third ship was delivered in mid-July 2024.

 

· As a result, the Seaways MR fleet average age was reduced by one year.

 

Balance Sheet Enhancements:

 

· Executed an amendment on senior secured debt facilities, increasing our revolving credit capacity by nearly $150 million and reducing mandatory repayments by nearly $20 million per quarter, leading to a reduction of spot cash break even costs by $3,000 per day.

 

· Total liquidity was approximately $682 million as of June 30, 2024, including total cash (1) of $176 million and $506 million undrawn revolving credit capacity.

 

· Net loan-to-value remained historically low at approximately 14% as of June 30, 2024.

 

Returns to Shareholders:

 

· Paid a combined $1.75 per share in regular and supplemental dividends in June 2024.

 

· Declared a combined dividend of $1.50 per share to be paid in September 2024, representing 64% of adjusted net income(1) for the second quarter.

 

· Following the dividend payment in September 2024, combined dividend payments over the last twelve months will aggregate to $5.82 per share, representing a dividend yield of over 12%.

 

“We maintained strong momentum in the second quarter, drawing on Seaway’s substantial cash flows to continue to execute the Company’s balanced capital allocation strategy for the benefit of shareholders,” said Lois K. Zabrocky, International Seaways President and CEO. “We continued to renew our MR fleet, one of the strongest earning classes, with the acquisition of six modern vessels and sales of older tonnage. At the same time, we increased our liquidity to position the Company for future growth while returning a 12% yield to shareholders.”

 

Ms. Zabrocky added, “We believe markets will continue to show strength based on sustained attractive supply and demand fundamentals, highlighted by positive oil demand trends, higher ton-mile demand, and limited shipyard capacity for new orders, which will inhibit any significant volume of tanker deliveries for the foreseeable future. We expect to take further advantage of these dynamics moving forward, as we focus on building our track record of opportunistic investment in the fleet and compelling shareholder returns.”

 

Jeff Pribor, the Company’s CFO stated, “Over the last twelve months, Seaways has generated free cash flow(1) of nearly $475 million, underscoring our significant operating leverage and boding well for future value creation. In addition, we enhanced our free cash flow(1) during the second quarter with the execution of the new revolving credit facility that reduced our mandatory debt repayments by about $20 million per quarter and lowered spot breakeven rates. Additionally, the new revolving credit capacity allows us to maintain a level of enhanced financial flexibility to pursue additional growth opportunities. With a historically strong balance sheet, highlighted by liquidity of $682 million, and supported by long-term market tailwinds, we believe we are ideally positioned to optimize shareholder returns.”

 

 


 

 

 

SECOND QUARTER 2024 RESULTS

 

Net income for the second quarter of 2024 was $144.7 million, or $2.91 per diluted share, compared to net income of $153.8 million, or $3.11 per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2023. The decrease in results in the second quarter of 2024 was primarily driven by a decrease in TCE revenues(1) and an increase in depreciation partially offset by gains on the sale of two vessels in the second quarter of 2024.

 

Shipping revenues for the second quarter were $257.4 million, compared to $292.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. Consolidated TCE revenues(1) for the second quarter were $251.8 million, compared to $288.3 million for the second quarter of 2023.

 

Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the second quarter was $167.0 million, compared to $205.1 million for the second quarter of 2023.

 

Crude Tankers

 

Shipping revenues for the Crude Tankers segment were $125.4 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $152.2 million for the second quarter of 2023. TCE revenues(1) were $120.9 million for the second quarter, compared to $148.9 million for the second quarter of 2023. This decrease was attributable to a decrease in spot rates as the average spot earnings of the VLCC, Suezmax and Aframax sectors were approximately $46,400, $45,000 and $31,500 per day, respectively, compared with approximately $52,300, $61,300 and $53,500 per day, respectively, during the second quarter of 2023.

 

Product Carriers

 

Shipping revenues for the Product Carriers segment were $132.0 million for the second quarter of 2024, compared to $140.0 million for the second quarter of 2023. TCE revenues(1) were $131.0 million for the second quarter, compared to $139.4 million for the second quarter of 2023. This decrease is attributable to a reduction in revenue days due to the decrease in the chartered-in fleet, vessel sales and an increase in offhire from drydocking and repairs.

 

FIRST HALF 2024 RESULTS

 

Net income for the first half of 2024 was $289.2 million, or $5.83 per diluted share, compared to net income of $326.4 million, or $6.59 per diluted share, for the first half of 2023.

 

Shipping revenues for the first half of 2024 were $531.8 million, compared to $579.3 million for the first half of 2023. Consolidated TCE revenues(1) for the first half of 2024 were $522.8 million, compared to $571.7 million for the first half of 2023.

 

Adjusted EBITDA(1) for the first half of 2024 was $358.4 million, compared to $414.0 million for the first half of 2023.

 

Crude Tankers

 

Shipping revenues for the Crude Tankers segment were $252.2 million for the first half of 2024, compared to $284.6 million for the first half of 2023. TCE revenues(1) for the Crude Tankers segment were $244.8 million for the first half of 2024, compared to $278.2 million for the first half of 2023.

 

Product Carriers

 

Shipping revenues for the Product Carriers segment were $279.6 million for the first half of 2024, compared to $294.8 million for the first half of 2023. TCE revenues(1) for the Product Carriers segment were $278.0 million for the first half of 2024 compared to $293.5 million for the first half of 2023.

 

FLEET OPTIMIZATION PROGRAM

 

During the second quarter, the Company took delivery of six modern MR vessels for an aggregate consideration of $232 million. In connection with the acquisition of the six vessels, the Company issued an aggregate 623,778 common shares to the sellers, representing 15% of the aggregate consideration. The remaining 85% of aggregate consideration was funded with cash on hand.

 

The Company has sold three vessels as of July 31, 2024. In the second quarter of 2024, a 2009-built MR and a 2008-built MR were sold for aggregate net proceeds of $48 million. In July 2024, the Company sold another 2008-built MR for net proceeds of approximately $25 million. In each of the vessel sales, the Company recorded a gain on sale, of which $28 million was recognized during the second quarter.

 

 


 

 

 

During the second quarter, the Company entered into three new time charter agreements on two 2009-built MRs and a 2014-built LR2. The charters have durations of around three years and were delivered to the charterers during the third quarter. As a result of the agreements, future contracted revenues increased by $86 million.

 

The Company entered into contracts and declared options to build a total of six scrubber-fitted, dual-fuel (LNG) ready, LR1 vessels in Korea with K Shipbuilding Co, Ltd at a price in aggregate of approximately $359 million. The vessels are expected to be delivered beginning in the second half of 2025 through the third quarter of 2026. These vessels are expected to deliver into our niche Panamax International Pool, which has consistently outperformed the market.

 

BALANCE SHEET ENHANCEMENTS

 

During the second quarter of 2024, the Company repaid $12 million in mandatory payments required under its existing debt facilities and sale leaseback arrangements. For the six months ended June 30, 2024, the Company repaid $44 million of mandatory debt payments.

 

In April 2024, the Company amended and extended the $750 Million Facility, under which the Company had a remaining term loan balance of $94.6 million and undrawn revolver capacity of $257.4 million prior to closing. The new agreement consists of a $500 million revolving credit facility (the “$500 Million RCF”) that matures in January 2030. Under the terms of the $500 Million RCF, capacity is reduced on a quarterly basis by approximately $12.8 million each quarter, based on a 20-year age-adjusted profile of the collateral vessels. The $500 Million RCF bears an interest rate based on term SOFR +185bps (the “margin”) and includes similar sustainability-linked features as included in the $750 Million Credit Facility, which could impact the margin by five basis points, that are aimed at reducing the carbon footprint, targeting expenditures toward energy efficiency improvements and maintaining a safety record above the industry average. Prior to executing the agreement, the Company prepaid the outstanding balance on the ING Credit Facility of $20.3 million and included the collateral vessel in the $500 Million RCF. The $500 Million RCF saves $19.5 million per quarter in mandatory debt repayments and reduces future interest expense through a margin reduction of over 85 basis points.

 

In June 2024, the Company borrowed $50 million under the $500 Million RCF. In July 2024, $30 million was repaid and the Company expects to repay an additional $20 million in August 2024. Following the repayments and amortizing capacity during the third quarter, the Company expects undrawn revolving capacity to increase to $540 million.

 

RETURNS TO SHAREHOLDERS

 

In June 2024, the Company paid a combined dividend of $1.75 per share of common stock, composed of a regular quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock and a supplemental dividend of $1.63 per share.

 

On August 6, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a combined dividend of $1.50 per share of common stock, composed of a regular quarterly dividend of $0.12 per share of common stock and a supplemental dividend of $1.38 per share of common stock. Both dividends will be paid on September 25, 2024, to shareholders with a record date at the close of business on September 11, 2024.

 

The Company currently has $50 million authorized under its share repurchase program, which expires at the end of 2025.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Information

 

The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, the following non-GAAP measures may provide certain investors with additional information that will better enable them to evaluate the Company’s performance. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide supplemental information, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP.

 

(A) Adjusted Net Income

 

Adjusted net income consists of net income adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. This measure does not represent or substitute net income or any other financial item that is determined in accordance with GAAP. While adjusted net income is frequently used as a measure of operating results and performance, it may not be necessarily comparable with other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income, as reflected in the consolidated statement of operations, to adjusted net income:

Adjusted net income per diluted share   $ 2.37     $ 3.12     $ 5.30     $ 6.40  

 

(B) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

 

EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted for the impact of certain items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be a substitute for, net income or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations are: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and (iii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the significant interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used as a measure of operating results and performance, neither of them is necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income as reflected in the condensed consolidated statements of operations, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA:

(D) Free Cash Flow

 

Free cash flow represents cash flows from operating activities, less mandatory repayments of debt (including those under sale and leaseback agreements) less capital expenditures excluding payments made to acquire a vessel or vessels, which the Company believes is useful to investors in understanding the net cash generated from its core business activities after certain mandatory obligations.

 

($ in thousands)   2023     2024  
For the three months ended:   June 30     September 30     December 31     March 31     June 30

(1) Reflects current period balance on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, less the prior quarter’s balance on the face of the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows. The captions have been adjusted for summary purposes; the complete list of captions are as follows, in order as in the table above: Net cash provided by operating activities, Repayments of debt, Payments and advance payment on sale and leaseback financing and finance lease, Expenditures for vessels, vessel improvements and vessels under construction, and Expenditures for other property. For the period ended September 30, 2023, Repayments of Debt include the line item Premium and fees on extinguishment of debt.

 

(2) Payments for vessels under construction represent the contractual payments on three dual-fuel VLCCs that delivered in the first half of 2023 and contractual payments for the LR1 newbuildings in Q4 2023. In the three months ended 2024, the Company announced the acquisition of 6 eco MRs for a total contract price of $232 million, of which 10% was paid in deposit in the same quarter. The vessels delivered during the second quarter of 2024.

 

(3) In connection with the execution of the revolving credit facility (“$160 Million Facility”) in the third quarter of 2023, the Company drew $50 million as of September 30, 2023. During October 2023, the Company repaid the outstanding amounts on the facility.

 

 

(E) Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Revenues

 

Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the Company uses TCE revenues, which represents shipping revenues less voyage expenses, as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from a time charter. Time charter equivalent revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with shipping revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. Reconciliation of TCE revenues of the segments to shipping revenues as reported in the consolidated statements of operations follow:
