Favorable results reflect higher pricing and an expanding fleet. Higher TCE rates reflect increased steel and coal activity as well as increased demand for shipping days due to disruptions in the Red Sea. Management used the favorable environment to lock in pricing for additional operating days in 2024. Management also announced the purchase of its 19th ship.
Strong cash flow allowed the company to pay a special dividend and pay down debt. The company is committed to return proceeds to shareholders though dividends and share repurchases.
