John Hadjipateras, Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer of the Company, commented, “In a volatile geopolitical and economic environment and with a heavy drydocking schedule, we achieved good results in our financial year 2025. Our capital allocation is focused on shareholder returns and preserving the strength of our balance sheet, enabling us to invest in our people and our business, as well as in fleet renewal and expansion when opportunities arise. I am grateful to and commend our seafarers and shore staff for their commitment to our mission to provide safe, reliable, clean, and trouble-free transportation. Though the trade and other important issues that may affect our business are not settled I am confident in the fundamentals of the LPG market and our teams’ readiness to respond constructively.”

Market Outlook Update
High volatility over the first calendar quarter of 2025 (“Q1 2025”) was seen overall in the oil and gas markets with the beginning of trade tariff announcements by
Several extended periods of low temperatures in the
Persistent strength in feedstock prices continued to weigh on the petrochemical markets with propane dehydrogenation (“PDH”) margins remaining negative in the Far East for the production of propylene. Propane prices in the Far East were on average
Difficult arbitrage economics from the US to importers in the Far East was seen in Q1 2025 squeezing terminal fees and freight rates at times. Average freight rates retreated in Q1 2025 with a significant drop seen in February 2025 as VLGC supply/demand fundamentals were weak. Rates were seen to improve in March 2025 with the
In Q1 2025, three new VLGCs were added to the market, representing a modest addition to the global fleet. An additional 108 VLGCs/VLACs, equivalent to roughly 9.7 million cbm of carrying capacity, are expected to be added to the global fleet by calendar year 2029. The average age of the global fleet is now approximately 10.5 years old. Currently, the VLGC orderbook stands at approximately
The above market outlook update is based on information, data and estimates derived from industry sources available as of the date of this release, and there can be no assurances that such trends will continue or that anticipated developments in freight rates, export volumes, the VLGC orderbook or other market indicators will materialize. This information, data and estimates involve a number of assumptions and limitations, are subject to risks and uncertainties, and are subject to change based on various factors. You are cautioned not to give undue weight to such information, data and estimates. We have not independently verified any third-party information, verified that more recent information is not available and undertake no obligation to update this information unless legally obligated.
Seasonality
Liquefied gases are primarily used for industrial and domestic heating, as chemical and refinery feedstock, as transportation fuel and in agriculture. The LPG shipping market historically has been stronger in the spring and summer months in anticipation of increased consumption of propane and butane for heating during the winter months. In addition, unpredictable weather patterns in these months tend to disrupt vessel scheduling and the supply of certain commodities. Demand for our vessels therefore may be stronger in our quarters ending June 30 and September 30 and relatively weaker during our quarters ending December 31 and March 31, although 12-month time charter rates tend to smooth out these short-term fluctuations and recent LPG shipping market activity has not yielded the typical seasonal results. The increase in petrochemical industry buying has contributed to less marked seasonality than in the past, but there can no guarantee that this trend will continue. To the extent any of our time charters expire during the typically weaker fiscal quarters ending December 31 and March 31, it may not be possible to re-charter our vessels at similar rates. As a result, we may have to accept lower rates or experience off-hire time for our vessels, which may adversely impact our business, financial condition and operating results.

We define calendar days as the total number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet was owned or operated pursuant to a bareboat charter. Calendar days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect the amount of expenses that are recorded during that period. |

|
|

(3) |
|
We define time chartered-in days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which we time chartered-in vessels from third parties. Time chartered-in days are an indicator of the size of the fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of charter hire expenses that are recorded during that period. |

|
We define available days as the sum of calendar days and time chartered-in days (collectively representing our commercially-managed vessels) less aggregate off hire days associated with scheduled maintenance, which include major repairs, drydockings, vessel upgrades or special or intermediate surveys. We use available days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period that our vessels should be capable of generating revenues. Note that we have updated our definition of available days to include unscheduled maintenance as we believe it is more reflective of industry practice and more consistent with the practice used in the Helios Pool, which now accounts for more than |
