Genco Shipping & Trading (NYSE:GNK) on March 19, 2026 rejected Diana Shipping’s revised non-binding indicative proposal to acquire all outstanding Genco shares for $23.50 per share.

The Board cited a financing commitment discrepancy and Diana’s plan to sell 16 Genco vessels at deeply discounted prices to a competitor as further reasons to reject the proposal, and said it remains open to an offer that reflects Genco’s intrinsic value and upside.
