Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM) reported challenging Q2 2025 results, with significant year-over-year declines across key metrics. Total vessel revenues decreased by 37.4% to $10.2 million, while net income fell 72.5% to $6.3 million compared to Q2 2024. The company's cash position declined to $44.8 million from $87.9 million in December 2024.

During Q2, Castor completed two vessel disposals and made substantial debt prepayments, reducing total debt to $5.3 million as of June 30, 2025. The company also announced a new $60 million Series E Preferred Shares issuance to Toro Corp. with an 8.75% distribution rate.

The decline in performance was attributed to reduced Available Days following vessel sales and lower dry bulk charter rates. Management remains confident in long-term fundamentals despite near-term market headwinds.

Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM) ha riportato risultati difficili nel secondo trimestre 2025, con cali significativi anno su anno in metriche chiave. I ricavi totali delle navi sono diminuiti del 37,4% a 10,2 milioni di dollari, mentre l’utile netto è sceso del 72,5% a 6,3 milioni di dollari rispetto al secondo trimestre 2024. La posizione di cassa della società è scesa a 44,8 milioni di dollari dai 87,9 milioni di dollari di dicembre 2024.

Durante il trimestre, Castor ha completato due dismissioni di navi e ha effettuato significativi pagamenti anticipati del debito, portando il debito totale a 5,3 milioni di dollari al 30 giugno 2025. La società ha inoltre annunciato una nuova emissione di azioni privilegiate di Serie E per 60 milioni di dollari a Toro Corp., con un tasso di distribuzione dell’8,75%.

Il deterioramento delle performance è stato attribuito a una riduzione dei giorni disponibili dopo la vendita delle navi e a tariffe di charter per dry bulk inferiori. La direzione resta fiduciosa nei fondamentali a lungo termine nonostante le avversità di breve termine.

Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM) reportó resultados desafiantes en el segundo trimestre de 2025, con caídas significativas año tras año en métricas clave. Los ingresos totales por buques cayeron un 37,4% hasta 10,2 millones de dólares, mientras que el beneficio neto se redujo un 72,5% hasta 6,3 millones de dólares frente al 2T de 2024. La posición de efectivo de la empresa cayó a 44,8 millones de dólares desde 87,9 millones de diciembre de 2024.

Durante el 2T, Castor completó dos desinversiones de buques y realizó importantes prepagos de deuda, reduciendo la deuda total a 5,3 millones de dólares al 30 de junio de 2025. La empresa también anunció una nueva emisión de acciones preferentes Serie E por 60 millones de dólares a Toro Corp. con una tasa de distribución del 8,75%.

La caída del rendimiento se atribuyó a una menor Available Days tras la venta de buques y a tarifas de flete en dry bulk más bajas. La dirección mantiene confianza en los fundamentos a largo plazo a pesar de las condiciones de mercado a corto plazo.

Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM)가 2025년 2분기 실적에서 도전적 결과를 보고했고, 핵심 지표에서 연간 비교로 유의미한 하락이 나타났습니다. 선박 총 수익은 1,020만 달러로 37.4% 감소, 순이익은 6.3백만 달러로 72.5% 감소했고, 2024년 12월의 현금 보유액은 8,790만 달러에서 4,480만 달러로 감소했습니다.

2분기 동안 Castor는 두 척의 선박 처분을 완료했고 부채를 대폭 상환하여, 2025년 6월 30일 기준 총 부채를 5.3백만 달러로 낮췄습니다. 또한 Toro Corp.에 6천만 달러 규모의 시리즈 E 우선주 발행을 발표했고 배당 수익률은 8.75%입니다.

성과 저하의 원인은 선박 매각 후 이용일수 감소와 드라이 벌크 용선료의 하락에 기인합니다. 경영진은 단기 시장 역풍에도 불구하고 장기 펀더멘털에 대해 여전히 확신하고 있습니다.

Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM) a publié des résultats difficiles au deuxième trimestre 2025, avec des baisses importantes d’une année sur l’autre sur les indicateurs clés. Les revenus totaux par navire ont chuté de 37,4% à 10,2 millions de dollars, tandis que le bénéfice net a diminué de 72,5% à 6,3 millions de dollars par rapport au 2T 2024. La position de trésorerie de l’entreprise est passée à 44,8 millions de dollars contre 87,9 millions de dollars en décembre 2024.

Au cours du 2T, Castor a procédé à deux cessions de navires et a effectué d’importantes prépaiements de dette, réduisant la dette totale à 5,3 millions de dollars au 30 juin 2025. La société a également annoncé une nouvelle émission d’actions privilégiées de série E pour 60 millions de dollars à Toro Corp., avec un taux de distribution de 8,75%.

La détérioration de la performance a été attribuée à une réduction des jours disponibles après la vente des navires et à des tarifs de charter dry bulk plus bas. La direction demeure confiante dans les fondamentaux à long terme malgré les vents contraires à court terme.

Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM) meldete im zweiten Quartal 2025 herausfordernde Ergebnisse, mit deutlichen jährlichen Rückgängen bei den wichtigsten Kennzahlen. Die Gesamterlöse pro Schiff sanken um 37,4% auf 10,2 Mio. USD, während der Nettogewinn um 72,5% auf 6,3 Mio. USD gegenüber Q2 2024 fiel. Die Cash-Position des Unternehmens ging von 87,9 Mio. USD im Dezember 2024 auf 44,8 Mio. USD zurück.

Im Q2 führte Castor zwei Veräußerungen von Schiffen durch und leistete erhebliche Schuldentilgungen, wodurch die Gesamtverschuldung zum 30. Juni 2025 auf 5,3 Mio. USD sank. Das Unternehmen kündigte zudem eine neue Ausgabe von 60 Mio. USD Serie-E-Privat-Aktien an Toro Corp. mit einer Ausschüttungsquote von 8,75% an.

Der Leistungsrückgang wurde auf reduzierte verfügbare Tage nach dem Verkauf der Schiffe und niedrigere Charterraten im Dry-Bulk-Segment zurückgeführt. Das Management bleibt trotz der kurzfristigen Marktbedingungen zu den langfristigen Fundamentaldaten optimistisch.

Castor Maritime (NASDAQ:CTRM) أعلنت عن نتائج صعبة في الربع الثاني من 2025، مع انخفاضات كبيرة على مستوى السنة في المقاييس الرئيسية. انخفضت إيرادات السفن الإجمالية بمقدار 37.4% إلى 10.2 مليون دولار، وتراجع صافي الدخل بنحو 72.5% إلى 6.3 مليون دولار مقارنة بالربع الثاني من 2024. تراجعت السيولة إلى 44.8 مليون دولار من 87.9 مليون دولار في ديسمبر 2024.

خلال الربع الثاني، أكملت Castor إفراجين عن سفن وأجرت سداداً مبكراً للديون بشكل كبير، ليصل مجموع الدين إلى 5.3 مليون دولار حتى 30 يونيو 2025. كما أعلنت الشركة عن إصدار جديد من الأسهم الممتازة من الفئة E بقيمة 60 مليون دولار لصالح Toro Corp. بمعدل توزيع قدره 8.75%.

ويُعزى انخفاض الأداء إلى تقليل الأيام المتاحة بعد بيع السفن وتراجع معدلات الإيجار في فئة Dry Bulk، على الرغم من أن الإدارة واثقة من الأسس طويلة الأجل رغم الرياح السوقية القصيرة الأجل.

Insights

Castor Maritime reports significant revenue and profit declines alongside debt reduction and fleet renewal amid challenging dry bulk market.

Castor Maritime's Q2 2025 results reveal substantial declines across key metrics with total vessel revenues down 37.4% to $10.2 million compared to Q2 2024. More concerning is the 72.5% decrease in net income to $6.3 million, with adjusted net income dropping dramatically to just $2.0 million from $21.5 million in the year-ago period. This significant deterioration extends to EBITDA, which fell to $10.7 million from $26.5 million.

The half-year picture is even more challenging, with the company swinging to a net loss of $17.0 million for H1 2025 compared to a profit of $45.2 million in H1 2024 – a stark 137.6% reversal. This translated to a loss of $1.84 per share compared to earnings of $4.52 per share in the same period last year.

Behind these declines are two primary factors: reduced fleet size and weaker charter rates. The company's available days decreased 23.3% to 825 days in Q2 2025 from 1,076 days in Q2 2024, following strategic vessel disposals. Meanwhile, the challenging dry bulk sector drove down charter rates, compounding revenue pressure.

On a positive note, Castor has dramatically strengthened its balance sheet by reducing debt from $103.7 million at the end of 2024 to just $5.3 million by June 30, 2025. The company made substantial prepayments to Toro Corp., fully eliminating this debt by May 2025. While this deleveraging provides financial flexibility, it came at the cost of reducing cash reserves from $87.9 million to $44.8 million.

The company has pivoted toward asset management through its MPC Capital subsidiary, generating $7.8 million in service revenue. Additionally, Castor secured fresh financing through a $60 million Series E Preferred Shares issuance to Toro and completed a $14.6 million sale-leaseback for the M/V Magic Thunder.

Management's commentary acknowledges the "ongoing market headwinds in the dry bulk sector" while emphasizing their fleet renewal strategy. With minimal debt, substantial cash reserves, and new financing sources, Castor appears positioned to weather continued market weakness while potentially capitalizing on vessel acquisition opportunities at depressed valuations.

Mr. Petros Panagiotidis, Chief Executive Officer of Castor, commented:

“Amid ongoing market headwinds in the dry bulk sector during the second quarter of 2025, we advanced our fleet renewal strategy through the sale of older vessels, further enhancing efficiency and overall quality.

While near-term market conditions remain challenging, we are confident in the sector’s long-term fundamentals and in our ability to capture future opportunities.

Backed by a solid balance sheet, the strength and strategic flexibility of our business model, reinforces our belief that disciplined capital deployment and portfolio renewal can deliver value.”

Earnings Commentary:

Second Quarter ended June 30, 2025, and 2024, Results

Total vessel revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2025, decreased to $10.2 million from $16.3 million in the same period of 2024. This variation was mainly driven by (i) the decrease in our Available Days (defined below), from 1,076 days in the three months ended June 30, 2024 to 825 days in the three months ended June 30, 2025, representing a 23.3% decrease, following the sale of one dry bulk vessel and one container vessel in the second quarter of 2025, as partially offset by the acquisitions of the M/V Magic Celeste on August 16, 2024, M/V Raphaela on October 3, 2024 and M/V Magic Ariel on October 9, 2024, and (ii) the decrease in prevailing charter rates of our dry bulk vessels.

Revenue from services for the three months ended June 30, 2025, amounted to $7.8 million and relates to revenue earned from our subsidiary acquired in late 2024, MPC Münchmeyer Petersen Capital AG (“MPC Capital”). Revenue from services is generated through the following streams: (i) transaction services, (ii) management services for companies and assets, and (iii) ship management services.

There was a decrease in voyage expenses to $0.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $1.0 million in the same period of 2024, which was mainly associated with the decrease in brokerage commissions to third parties mainly due to the decrease of the revenue of our fleet, partially offset by increased port and other expenses, brokerage commissions to related party and the loss on bunkers.

Vessel operating expenses decreased by $1.9 million to $4.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $6.5 million in the same period of 2024, mainly reflecting the decrease in the Ownership Days of our fleet to 883 days in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from 1,076 days in the same period in 2024.

Cost of revenue from services for the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $5.8 million and relates to expenses for purchased services from third party providers and employee expenses from our subsidiary, MPC Capital.

Management fees in the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $1.0 million, whereas in the same period of 2024, management fees totaled $1.1 million. This decrease in management fees is due to the net decrease in the total number of Ownership Days for which our managers charge us a daily management fee following the sales and acquisitions of vessels mentioned above, partly offset by a management fee adjustment for inflation under our Amended and Restated Master Management Agreement with effect from July 1, 2024.

Depreciation and amortization expenses are comprised of vessels’ depreciation, the amortization of vessels’ capitalized dry-dock costs, property and equipment depreciation and intangible assets amortization. Depreciation expenses decreased to $2.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2025, from $3.1 million in the same period of 2024. The decrease by $0.8 million reflects mainly the net decrease in the Ownership Days of our fleet following the sales and acquisitions of vessels discussed above. Dry-dock and special survey amortization charges amounted to $0.3 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025, compared to a charge of $0.4 million in the respective period of 2024. This variation in dry-dock amortization charges primarily resulted from the decrease in aggregate amortization days, mainly as a result of the sale of vessels mentioned above as partially offset by the amortization related to the vessels M/V Magic Starlight and M/V Magic Ariel, which initiated and completed their scheduled dry-dock during the second quarter ended June 30, 2025. Further to the above, depreciation and amortization expenses for our asset management segment amounted to $0.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2025, comprising property and equipment depreciation and intangible assets amortization.

General and administrative expenses in the three months ended June 30, 2025, amounted to $5.4 million, whereas, in the same period of 2024, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.5 million. This increase mainly reflects the increase in professional fees and other expenses, audit fees and personnel expenses following the acquisition of MPC Capital.

Net gain/(loss) on sale of vessels in the three months ended June 30, 2025, amounted to $0.1 million following the sales of the: (i) M/V Gabriela A on May 7, 2025 and (ii) M/V Magic Callisto on April 28, 2025. Gain on sale of vessels in the three months ended June 30, 2024, amounted to $11.4 million following the sales of the: (i) M/V Magic Nebula on April 18, 2024, (ii) M/V Magic Venus on May 10, 2024, (iii) M/V Magic Vela on May 23, 2024, and (iv) M/V Magic Horizon on May 28, 2024.

Net gain on disposal of assets in the three months ended June 30, 2025, amounted to $0.4 million following the sale of an asset management contract.

Net loss from equity method investments in the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, amounted to $0.1 million and $0, respectively, representing our share in jointly owned companies or equity method investments (all of which relate to the asset management segment).

Net gain from equity method investments measured at fair value in the three months ended June 30, 2025 and 2024, amounted to $1.6 million and $0, respectively, resulting from the revaluation of such investments. These represent our share in MPC Container Ships ASA (“MPCC”) and MPC Energy Solutions N.V for which we have elected the fair value option.

During the three months ended June 30, 2025, we incurred net interest and finance costs of $0.9 million, compared to $0.1 million during the same period in 2024. The increase is primarily due to a decrease in interest income earned from our time and cash deposits, which resulted from lower average cash balances during the three months ended June 30, 2025.

Other income in the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $2.9 million and mainly includes (i) a gain of $3.2 million from our investments in listed equity securities, (ii) dividend income on equity securities of $1.4 million, (iii) dividend income of $0.4 million from our investment in 140,000 1.00% Series A Fixed Rate Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Shares of Toro (the “Toro Series A Preferred Shares”), (iv) foreign exchange losses amounting to $4.1 million, and (v) other net amounting to $2.0 million due to recoveries of prior year allowances and reversals of provisions.

Dividend income from equity method investments measured at fair value (related party) amounted to $5.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025 and includes the dividend income from MPCC.

Other income, net in the three months ended June 30, 2024, amounted to $7.4 million, which includes (i) a gain of $5.1 million from our investments in listed equity securities, (ii) dividend income on equity securities of $2.0 million, and (iii) dividend income of $0.4 million from our investment in the Toro Series A Preferred Shares.

Recent Financial Developments Commentary:

Liquidity/Financing/Cash flow update

Our consolidated cash position as of June 30, 2025, decreased by $43.1 million to $44.8 million, as compared to our cash position on December 31, 2024, which amounted to $87.9 million. The decrease was mainly the result of: (i) $4.0 million of net operating cash outflows during the six months ended June 30, 2025, (ii) net outflows of $20.0 million associated with the sale and purchase of equity method investments, (iii) $101.1 million used for scheduled principal repayments, early prepayments in connection with the sale of vessels and voluntary prepayments, mainly to the term loan from Toro, on our debt, (iv) $2.1 million of dividends paid relating to our 5.00% Series D Cumulative Perpetual Convertible Preferred Shares, (v) $2.8 million for cash dividends paid to non-controlling interests, as offset by (vi) $61.9 million inflow of net proceeds from the sales of the M/V Ariana A, M/V Magic Eclipse, M/V Magic Callisto and M/V Gabriela A, (vii) $1.6 million proceeds related to a loan facility, and (viii) net inflows of $20.7 million associated with the purchase and sale of equity securities. 

As of June 30, 2025, our total debt, gross of unamortized deferred loan fees, was $5.3 million, of which $1.2 million is repayable within one year, as compared to $103.7 million of gross total debt as of December 31, 2024, a decrease mainly due to the prepayments made in connection with vessel dispositions and voluntary prepayments of our long term debt.

More specifically, on March 24, 2025 and March 31, 2025, Castor made partial prepayments to Toro for its term loan amounting to $13,500,000 and $34,000,000, respectively, in addition to $2,500,000 as part of the scheduled repayment of the loan. On April 29, 2025 we prepaid $14,000,000 of the term loan from Toro, and on May 5, 2025, we prepaid the amount of $36,000,000 that remained outstanding as of that date.

As of June 30, 2025, the remaining debt balance of $5.3 million pertained to our asset management segment.

The distribution rate of the Series E Preferred Shares is 8.75%, paid quarterly, and they are convertible into common shares of Castor from the first anniversary of the issue date at a conversion price equal to the 5-day value weighted average price immediately preceding the conversion, subject to a minimum conversion price of $0.30.

APPENDIX B

Non-GAAP Financial Information
Daily Time Charter (“TCE”) Rate. The Daily Time Charter Equivalent Rate (“Daily TCE Rate”) is a measure of the average daily revenue performance of a vessel. The Daily TCE Rate is not a measure of financial performance under U.S. GAAP (non-GAAP measure) and should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of financial performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We calculate Daily TCE Rate by dividing total revenues (time charter and/or voyage charter revenues, and/or pool revenues, net of charterers’ commissions), less voyage expenses, by the number of Available Days during that period. Under a time charter, the charterer pays substantially all the vessel voyage related expenses. However, we may incur voyage related expenses when positioning or repositioning vessels before or after the period of a time or other charter, during periods of commercial waiting time or while off-hire during dry-docking. Under voyage charters, the majority of voyage expenses are generally borne by us whereas for vessels in a pool, such expenses are borne by the pool operator. The Daily TCE Rate is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare period-to-period changes in a company’s performance and management believes that the Daily TCE Rate provides meaningful information to our investors since it compares daily net earnings generated by our vessels irrespective of the mix of charter types (i.e., time charter, voyage charter, or other) under which our vessels are employed between the periods while it further assists our management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of our vessels and in evaluating our financial performance. Our calculation of the Daily TCE Rates may be different from and may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

The following table reconciles the calculation of the Daily TCE Rate which is applicable only for our dry bulk and containership fleet to Total vessel revenues (applicable only to dry bulk and containership segments) for the periods presented (amounts in U.S. dollars, except for Available Days):

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are not measures of financial performance under U.S. GAAP, do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income, cash flow from operating activities or any other measure of financial performance presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. We define EBITDA as earnings before interest and finance costs (if any), net of interest income, taxes (when incurred), depreciation and amortization of deferred dry-docking costs. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA adjusted to exclude unrealized gain/loss on equity securities and equity method investments (including those measured at fair value) and non-recurring expenses, which the Company believes are not indicative of the ongoing performance of its core operations. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are used as supplemental financial measure by management and external users of financial statements to assess our operating performance. We believe that EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA assists our management by providing useful information that increases the comparability of our operating performance from period to period and against the operating performance of other companies in our industry that provide EBITDA information. This increased comparability is achieved by excluding the potentially disparate effects between periods or companies of interest, other financial items, depreciation and amortization and taxes for EBITDA, and further excluding unrealized gains/loss on securities and non-recurring expenses for Adjusted EBITDA, which items are affected by various and possibly changing financing methods, capital structure and historical cost basis and which items may significantly affect net income between periods. We believe that including EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as measures of operating performance benefits investors in (a) selecting between investing in us and other investment alternatives and (b) monitoring our ongoing financial and operational strength. Our basis of computing EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA as presented below may be different from and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

The following table reconciles EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA to Net (loss)/ income, the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, for the periods presented:

Adjusted Net Income. To derive Adjusted Net Income/(Loss) from Net Income/(Loss), we exclude certain non-cash items, as provided in the table below. We believe that Adjusted Net Income assists our management and investors by increasing the comparability of our performance from period to period since each such measure eliminates the effects of such non-cash item as unrealized losses from investments measured at fair value and other items which may vary from year to year, for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance. Our method of computing Adjusted Net Income may not necessarily be comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles Adjusted Net Income for the periods presented:
