[6-K] Performance Shipping Inc. Current Report (Foreign Issuer)

Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Performance Shipping Inc. filed a Form 6-K attaching two press releases: a July 31, 2025 release announcing the naming and delivery of M/T P. Massport, described as the first of four newbuild tankers on order, and a July 30, 2025 release reporting the company’s financial results for the second quarter and six months ended June 30, 2025. The filing states that the information in the Form 6-K, except for the CEO-attributed statement in Exhibit 99.1 and excluding Exhibit 99.2 in its entirety, is incorporated by reference into three existing Form F-3 registration statements (effective dates listed in the filing). The Form 6-K therefore provides notice of a fleet delivery event and a separate financial-results release while clarifying which exhibit content is incorporated by reference.

Insights

Corporate Filings Analyst

TL;DR: The filing attaches two press releases—one on a newbuild tanker delivery and one with Q2 financial results—and clarifies incorporation scope.

The document formally supplies investors with two distinct updates: a vessel naming and delivery event for M/T P. Massport described as the first of four tankers on order, and a separate release reporting second-quarter and six-month financial results ending June 30, 2025. It does not itself disclose financial figures.

The filing also specifies that most of the Form 6-K content is incorporated by reference into three Form F-3 registration statements, while excluding the CEO-attributed statement in Exhibit 99.1 and excluding Exhibit 99.2 entirely from incorporation. Watch for the standalone press releases for full financial metrics and for subsequent filings that may incorporate those numbers into registration statements.
