Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Costamare Bulkers Holdings Limited reported voyage revenue of $111.6 million and net income of $5.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026, equal to earnings per share of $0.21. For the six‑month period, voyage revenue reached $223.1 million, with net income of $15.1 million and earnings per share of $0.62. Management also highlights adjusted net income of $9.8 million for the quarter and $22.2 million for the half year, corresponding to adjusted earnings per share of $0.40 and $0.92, respectively.

Liquidity is strong with cash and cash equivalents of $234.8 million, margin deposits of $12.0 million and $84.7 million of undrawn hunting license capacity, for total liquidity of about $331.5 million; total cash exceeds debt by roughly $110 million. Owned dry bulk fleet utilization was high at 99.1% for the quarter and 98.3% year‑to‑date, on an average owned fleet of 29.8 and 30.1 vessels in the quarter and half year, alongside 23.1 and 23.5 chartered‑in vessels, respectively. The company is realigning its operating platform, transferring legacy trading positions earmarked for Cargill, selling older tonnage and recording a $7.7 million gain on vessel sales in the first half. Due to the May 2025 spin‑off, 2026 results are not comparable to 2025.

  • Returned to profitability with net income of $15.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2026, after a net loss of $26.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2025.
  • Robust balance sheet with total liquidity of about $331.5 million as of June 30, 2026 and total cash exceeding debt by approximately $110 million, providing financial flexibility.

Negative

  • None.

Filing Explained

On June 30, the company issued shares valued at $1.1 million to a related service provider, adding an equity issuance to the quarter’s disclosures.

Costamare Bulkers furnished this August 3, 2026 Form 6-K with unaudited second-quarter and six-month results; the filing also reports a common-share issuance valued at $1.1 million to a related service provider on June 30, 2026, adding an equity issuance to the period’s disclosures.

The filing states that Exhibit 99.2 is incorporated by reference into the company’s Form F-3 registration statements, linking the financial report to those registration statements.

The issuance is described by its value, not a share count, so the filing establishes the occurrence and stated value but does not size the number of shares issued.

The vessel Bermondi was classified as held for sale during the quarter, and no loss was recorded because its estimated fair value less costs to sell exceeded its carrying value; this is a held-for-sale classification rather than a reported completed sale.

Beginning with the first quarter of 2026, the company changed its adjusted-income methodology so vessel-sale gains or losses and losses on vessels held for sale are no longer excluded from its non-GAAP measures.

Forward freight agreements (FFAs) are contracts that let buyers and sellers lock in the price of transporting goods by sea for future dates, similar to agreeing today on the fare for a future taxi ride. They matter to investors because they provide a way to hedge against or bet on changes in shipping costs, which can affect the profitability of shipping companies, commodity traders, and firms that rely on global transport, and they also signal market expectations about future shipping demand.

1 This earnings release focuses on the financial results and management’s discussion and analysis of Costamare Bulkers for the three-month and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026. Costamare Bulkers became an independent publicly traded company upon its spin-off from Costamare Inc. on May 6, 2025, prior to which it did not operate as a separate legal entity. Accordingly, the results for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2026 are not comparable to the corresponding periods of 2025, and comparative figures for the three- and six-month periods ended June 30, 2025 are not presented.

2 Adjusted Net Income and respective per share figures are non-GAAP measures and should not be used in isolation or as substitutes for Costamare Bulkers’ financial results presented in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). For the definition and reconciliation of these measures to the most directly comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, please refer to Exhibit I.

3 Liquidity includes Cash (as defined in footnote 4) and $84.7 million of available undrawn funds from one hunting license facility as of June 30, 2026.

4 Cash denotes Cash and cash equivalents (including restricted cash) of $234.8 million plus margin deposits of $12.0 million relating mainly to our forward freight agreements (“FFAs”) and bunker swaps.

5 Debt denotes Long-term debt including current and non-current portion.

6 As of July 31, 2026, and excluding one vessel sub-chartered out to Cargill on back to back terms pursuant to the Strategic Cooperation Agreement.

-Two Capesize vessels chartered-in under period charters (one expected to be redelivered within 2026).

 

-24 Kamsarmax/Panamax vessels, 23 of which are chartered-in primarily under short-term period charters or time charter trips.

 

IV.OWNED FLEET7

 

·Costamare Bulkers currently owns a fleet of 30 dry bulk vessels (including the vessel we have agreed to sell) with a total capacity of approximately 2.7 million DWT, consisting of:

 

-6 Capesize vessels, all of which are on period charters.

 

-7 Kamsarmax vessels, out of which 5 are on period charters.

 

-9 Ultramax vessels, out of which 8 are on period charters.

 

-8 Supramax vessels, out of which 4 are on period charters.

 

·12 of the period charters are subject to index-linked charter agreements (with owner’s option to convert to fixed rate based on the prevailing FFA curve) while the remaining 11 are fixed-rate agreements.

 

 

Mr. Gregory Zikos, Chief Executive Officer of Costamare Bulkers Holdings Limited, commented:

 

During the second quarter of the year Costamare Bulkers generated an adjusted net income of $10 million.

 

We finalized the transfer of the Company’s entire legacy trading portfolio that was earmarked for Cargill, effectively reducing the risk on our balance sheet. We expect that our trading platform will be free of the three remaining legacy positions by year end.

 

As part of our fleet renewal program, we recently agreed to sell our 2009-built Supramax vessel, which is expected to be delivered within the third quarter.

 

With total cash exceeding debt by approximately $110 million, the Company is net cash positive, positioning us favorably to grow countercyclically should a low asset value environment arise.

 

Regarding the market, this quarter has been characterized by heightened volatility, particularly in the Capesize segment, largely driven by geopolitical uncertainty, energy market turbulence, and weather-related disruptions. Capesize rates peaked in late May before correcting by nearly $20,000/day through the end of June but have since held at robust levels.

 

The Panamax market remained supported by strong Capesize rates and the return of Chinese seaborne coal demand.

 

Unlike the larger vessel segments, the Supramax market was on a gradual upward trend throughout the period, supported by firmer grain and minor bulk volumes, as well as rising Liberian iron ore exports, which strengthened Atlantic market conditions.”

Non-GAAP Measures

 

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users of these financial measures additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. The tables below set out supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the relevant period. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, voyage revenue, net income, or other measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures include (i) Adjusted Net Income and (ii) Adjusted Earnings per Share.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share represent Net Income before deferred charter-in expense, amortization of time-charter assumed, non-recurring, non-cash write-off of loan deferred financing costs, non-recurring expenses for realignment of operating platform, general and administrative expenses - non-cash component and loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments. However, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating our ability to service additional debt and make capital expenditures. In addition, we believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity position compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share generally eliminates the effects of the accounting, effects of certain hedging instruments and other accounting treatments, items which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Previously, the Company’s calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share included adjustments for any gain/loss incurred in connection with the sale of vessels and for any loss on vessels held for sale. As the Company’s fleet management activities may, subject to market and other conditions, periodically include the sale of dry bulk vessels, the Company no longer includes such adjustments in its calculation of these non-GAAP measures beginning with the results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. We believe this updated methodology provides a more meaningful view of the Company’s operating performance.

 

(1)Items to consider for comparability, when prior period figures are presented, include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting Net Income are reflected as deductions to Adjusted Net Income. Charges negatively impacting Net Income are reflected as increases to Adjusted Net Income.

Owned Dry Bulk Fleet Available Days   5,257    2,670 
Owned Dry Bulk Fleet Utilization   98.3%   99.1%

 

(1) We calculate utilization of our owned dry bulk fleet (including vessels chartered-in by CBI) by dividing (i) the aggregate number of our on-hire days and ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days) in a period of our owned dry bulk fleet by (ii) the number of our available days (owned dry bulk fleet) during such period. We use the following definitions in our calculation of utilization of owned dry bulk fleet:

 

·On-hire days. We define on-hire days as the total days that a vessel was on-hire during a period.

 

·Ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days). We define ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days) during a period, as the total number of days that a vessel is not on-hire, but is conducting ordinary ship operations (other than dry dock ballast days) which include repositioning from a discharging port to a loading port, sailing to a port for the conclusion of a prospective sale of a vessel or a change of the technical manager of a vessel.

 

·Available days. We define available days as the number of our ownership days of our owned dry bulk fleet during a period less the aggregate number of dry dock days and dry dock ballast days during such period. We use the following definitions in our calculation of available days (owned dry bulk fleet):

 

üDry dock days. We define dry dock days as the days during a period that a vessel underwent scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, scheduled dry-docking or special surveys.

 

üDry dock ballast days. We define dry dock ballast days as the total days during a period that a vessel spends sailing to and from a shipyard for scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, scheduled dry-docking or special surveys.

1 The discussion below reflects the second quarter 2026 consolidated financial results of Costamare Bulkers. Prior to the completion of the spin-off from Costamare Inc. on May 6, 2025, Costamare Bulkers did not operate as a separate legal entity. Costamare Bulkers financial results for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 are therefore not comparable to the corresponding period in 2025 and accordingly, comparative figures are not presented.

 

 1 

 

Total Voyage Revenue

 

Total voyage revenue was $111.6 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, and mainly includes voyage revenue earned by the charter-out activities of both owned and chartered-in vessels and contractual reimbursements from certain of our charterers for EU Emissions Allowances (“EUAs”) and Fuel EU Maritime penalties.

 

Voyage Expenses

 

Voyage expenses were $30.2 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026. Voyage expenses mainly include (i) fuel consumption and port expenses, primarily relating to the activities of the charter-in vessels, (ii) third-party commissions, (iii) canal tolls and (iv) EUAs and Fuel EU Maritime expenses; however, a significant portion of EUAs and Fuel EU Maritime expenses are contractually reimbursed by the charterers, as discussed in “Total Voyage Revenue”, mitigating the net expenses impact.

 

Charter-in Hire Expenses

 

Charter-in hire expenses were $38.9 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, relating to the chartering-in of third-party dry bulk vessels.

 

Voyage Expenses – related parties

 

Voyage expenses – related parties were $1.0 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026. Voyage expenses – related parties represent (i) fees of 1.25%, in the aggregate, on voyage revenues earned by our owned fleet charged by a related manager and a related service provider and (ii) address commissions on certain charter-out agreements payable to a related agent. These commissions are subsequently paid in full on a back-to-back basis by the related agent to its respective third-party clients with no benefit for the related agent.

 

Vessels’ Operating Expenses

 

Vessels’ operating expenses were $16.4 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026. Daily vessels’ operating expenses were $6,036 for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026. Daily operating expenses are calculated as vessels’ operating expenses for the period over the ownership days of the period.

 

General and Administrative Expenses

 

General and administrative expenses were $2.5 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026 and include an amount of $0.7 million that was paid to a related service provider.

 

Management and Agency Fees – related parties

 

Management fees charged by our related party managers were $2.8 million during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026. The amounts charged by our related party managers include amounts paid to third party managers of $0.5 million for the three-month period ended June 30, 2026. Furthermore, during the three-month period ended June 30, 2026, agency fees of $0.8 million, in aggregate, were charged by four related agents.

 

General and Administrative Expenses – non-cash component

Non-GAAP Measures

 

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures used in managing the business may provide users of these financial measures additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. Management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain items that impact the overall comparability. Management also uses these non-GAAP financial measures in making financial, operating and planning decisions and in evaluating the Company’s performance. The tables below set out supplemental financial data and corresponding reconciliations to GAAP financial measures for the relevant period. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, voyage revenue, net income, or other measures determined in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures include (i) Adjusted Net Income and (ii) Adjusted Earnings per Share.

Reconciliation of Net Income to Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share

 

  

Six-month period ended

June 30, 2026

 

Three-month period ended

June 30, 2026

(Expressed in thousands of U.S. dollars, except share and per share data)      
Net Income  $15,103   $5,167 
Deferred charter-in expense   (853)   (397)
Amortization of time-charter assumed   (308)   (308)
General and administrative expenses - non-cash component   1,999    1,063 
Non-recurring, non-cash write-off of loan deferred financing costs   166    —   
Non-recurring expenses for realignment of operating platform   5,624    553 
Loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain) / loss on derivative instruments (1)   481    3,710 
Adjusted Net Income  $22,212   $9,788 
Adjusted Earnings per Share  $0.92   $0.40 
Weighted average number of shares   24,211,897    24,241,646 

 

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share represent Net Income before deferred charter-in expense, amortization of time-charter assumed, non-recurring, non-cash write-off of loan deferred financing costs, non-recurring expenses for realignment of operating platform, general and administrative expenses - non-cash component and loss on derivative instruments, excluding realized (gain)/loss on derivative instruments. However, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are not recognized measurements under U.S. GAAP. We believe that the presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful to investors because they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. We also believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating our ability to service additional debt and make capital expenditures. In addition, we believe that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share are useful in evaluating our operating performance and liquidity position compared to that of other companies in our industry because the calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share generally eliminates the effects of the accounting, effects of certain hedging instruments and other accounting treatments, items which may vary for different companies for reasons unrelated to overall operating performance and liquidity. In evaluating Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in this presentation. Our presentation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. Previously, the Company’s calculation of Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted Earnings per Share included adjustments for any gain/loss incurred in connection with the sale of vessels and for any loss on vessels held for sale. As the Company’s fleet management activities may, subject to market and other conditions, periodically include the sale of dry bulk vessels, the Company no longer includes such adjustments in its calculation of these non-GAAP measures beginning with the results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2026. We believe this updated methodology provides a more meaningful view of the Company’s operating performance.

 

(1)Items to consider for comparability, when prior period figures are presented, include gains and charges. Gains positively impacting Net Income are reflected as deductions to Adjusted Net Income. Charges negatively impacting Net Income are reflected as increases to Adjusted Net Income.

Owned Dry Bulk Fleet Utilization(1)

 

    

Six-month period ended

June 30, 2026

    

Three-month period ended

June 30, 2026

 
       
Owned Dry Bulk Fleet Available Days   5,257    2,670 
Owned Dry Bulk Fleet Utilization   98.3%   99.1%

 

(1) We calculate utilization of our owned dry bulk fleet (including vessels chartered-in by CBI) by dividing (i) the aggregate number of our on-hire days and ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days) in a period of our owned dry bulk fleet by (ii) the number of our available days (owned dry bulk fleet) during such period. We use the following definitions in our calculation of utilization of owned dry bulk fleet:

 

·On-hire days. We define on-hire days as the total days that a vessel was on-hire during a period.

 

·Ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days). We define ballast days (excluding dry dock ballast days) during a period, as the total number of days that a vessel is not on-hire, but is conducting ordinary ship operations (other than dry dock ballast days) which include repositioning from a discharging port to a loading port, sailing to a port for the conclusion of a prospective sale of a vessel or a change of the technical manager of a vessel.

 

·Available days. We define available days as the number of our ownership days of our owned dry bulk fleet during a period less the aggregate number of dry dock days and dry dock ballast days during such period. We use the following definitions in our calculation of available days (owned dry bulk fleet):

 

üDry dock days. We define dry dock days as the days during a period that a vessel underwent scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, scheduled dry-docking or special surveys.

 

üDry dock ballast days. We define dry dock ballast days as the total days during a period that a vessel spends sailing to and from a shipyard for scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, scheduled dry-docking or special surveys.
