Insights

Diana Shipping reported modest growth in Q1 2025 with net income up 45.6% to $3.0M despite revenue decline and fleet reduction.

Diana Shipping Inc. (NYSE: DSX) posted net income of $3.0 million for Q1 2025, representing a 45.6% increase from $2.1 million in Q1 2024. Net income attributed to common stockholders more than doubled to $1.6 million from $0.6 million year-over-year. The company maintained stable earnings per share at $0.01, unchanged from the same period last year.

Despite these profitability improvements, time charter revenues decreased to $54.9 million, down 4.7% from $57.6 million in Q1 2024. This revenue decline stemmed from reduced fleet size, with the average number of vessels decreasing to 37.8 from 39.7 vessels in the prior year period, resulting in 5.9% fewer ownership days (3,401 vs. 3,613).

The company partially offset this revenue decline through operational improvements. The Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) rate increased by 4.6% to $15,739 from $15,051, indicating better charter rates. Additionally, fleet utilization improved to 99.6% from 99.1%, demonstrating more efficient vessel deployment. The company also achieved cost reductions with voyage expenses down 9.7% to $2.95 million and vessel operating expenses declining 4.4% to $19.95 million.

Management declared a modest quarterly dividend of $0.01 per common share, consistent with previous periods, payable on June 24, 2025, to shareholders of record as of June 17, 2025. The company's current fleet consists of 38 dry bulk vessels across various size categories including Ultramax, Panamax, Kamsarmax, Post-Panamax, Capesize, and Newcastlemax carriers.

The company's strategy appears focused on optimizing fleet operations and improving profitability metrics rather than expanding fleet size, with strong charter coverage extending into 2025-2027 for many vessels.

Non-GAAP Measures

(1) Time charter equivalent rate, or TCE, is defined as our time charter revenues less voyage expenses during a period divided by the number of our available days during the period. Our method of computing TCE rate may not necessarily be comparable to TCE rates of other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. TCE is a non-GAAP measure, and management believes it is useful to investors because it is a standard shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because charter hire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per day amounts while charter hire rates for vessels on time charters are generally expressed in such amounts. TCE is used by management to assess and compare the vessels’ profitability.

(2) Daily vessel operating expenses, which include crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the costs of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses, are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by ownership days for the relevant period

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based upon various assumptions, many of which are based, in turn, upon further assumptions, including without limitation, Company management’s examination of historical operating trends, data contained in the Company’s records and other data available from third parties. Although the Company believes that these assumptions were reasonable when made, because these assumptions are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies that are difficult or impossible to predict and are beyond the Company’s control, the Company cannot assure you that it will achieve or accomplish these expectations, beliefs or projections.

In addition to these important factors, other important factors that, in the Company’s view, could cause actual results to differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements include the strength of world economies and currencies, general market conditions, including fluctuations in charter rates and vessel values, changes in demand for dry bulk shipping capacity, changes in the Company’s operating expenses, including bunker prices, drydocking and insurance costs, the market for the Company’s vessels, availability of financing and refinancing, changes in governmental rules and regulations or actions taken by regulatory authorities, tariff policies and other trade restrictions, potential liability from pending or future litigation, general domestic and international political conditions, including risks associated with the continuing conflict between Russia and Ukraine and related sanctions, potential disruption of shipping routes due to accidents or political events, including the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East, vessel breakdowns and instances of off-hires and other factors. Please see the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission for a more complete discussion of these and other risks and uncertainties. The Company undertakes no obligation to revise or update any forward-looking statement, or to make any other forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
