Outlook and guidance
FY2026 guidance maintained: revenue excluding EUAs of $345m–$370m, TCE of $73,000–$78,000/day and adjusted EBITDA of $255m–$280m; results expected in the mid-to-lower end of ranges.
Firm contract coverage was 92% for the remainder of 2026; backlog was 48 years, potentially 75 years with extension options. Vessel firm charters run through 2026–2041.
Flex Volunteer is in spot through Q1; Flex Ranger is expected back in Q1. Flex Freedom’s charter extension option is due later in the quarter.
Flex Artemis and Flex Volunteer are being marketed for long-term charters while continuing spot and short-term trading.
Spot freight markets are expected to remain muted but potentially volatile through year-end; longer term, LNG export growth is expected to lift shipping demand.
