Executive summary

  • Reported Q4 2025 profit of $228 million ($1.02/share), adjusted profit of $230.4 million ($1.03/share), and revenues of $624.5 million, driven by record TCE rates and lower operating expenses.

  • Maintains strong liquidity of $705 million and no significant debt maturities until 2030.

Financial highlights

  • Adjusted profit increased sharply quarter-over-quarter, mainly due to TCE earnings rising from $248 million to $424.5 million.

  • Q4 2025 revenues reached $624.5 million; EBITDA was $359.9 million.

  • Ship operating expenses decreased by $7.1 million, aided by supplier rebates; Q4 2025 fleet average OpEx (excluding dry dock) was $7,600/day.

  • Cash generation potential at current rates is $2.8 billion ($12.51/share), with a 34% cash flow yield.

Outlook and guidance

  • Q1 2026 spot TCEs contracted at $107,100 for VLCC, $76,700 for Suezmax, and $62,400 for LR2/Aframax, with high coverage rates.

  • 92% of VLCC, 83% of Suezmax, and 67% of LR2/Aframax days booked for Q1 2026 at significantly higher rates than Q4 2025.

  • Market expected to remain tight for 2-3 years, with volatility driven by seasonality, geopolitical events, and inventory management by major importers.

  • Management expects spot TCEs for Q1 2026 to be lower than currently contracted rates due to ballast days.

  • No plans to deleverage significantly; focus remains on maintaining leverage and returning cash to shareholders.

One of the very few apps you could call perfect. If something was to add to it, maybe the share price of the company when you search for it, but it's already excellent.
