John C. Wobensmith, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We have transformed Genco into a low-leverage, high-dividend company, supported by a fleet of premium-earning assets, industry low breakeven levels and a leading commercial operating platform. We continue to execute our Comprehensive Value Strategy and generate compelling returns for shareholders. Our strategy of purchasing high-specification assets, with over $550 million of investments made since 2021, has enhanced Genco’s earnings power and dividend capacity. Our Q2 dividend of $0.80 per share increased by 433% on a year-over-year basis, marking a value strategy record. This represents our 28th consecutive quarterly dividend, the longest stretch in the drybulk peer group with dividends totaling $8.715 per share over that time. Based on our significant operating leverage in a strengthening market, firm fixtures to date and assuming the current FFA curve, we project a record Q3 dividend of over $1 per share, an increase of more than 560% year-over-year. Our Q3 TCE to date is 18% higher than Q2 levels and the highest level since Q2 2022. Complementing the strong rate environment, asset values have continued to rise, contributing to Genco’s increasing net asset value (NAV). The drybulk market remains strong and we are well positioned to continue to deliver compelling returns and value to shareholders in 2026 and beyond.”
1 Genco share price as of August 4, 2026.
2 Q3 2026 projected dividend shown is based on fixtures to date (representing 66% of our owned fleet available days), assuming the current FFA curve for the balance of the quarter and estimated expense levels and utilization as described in the appendix to our Q2 2026 earnings presentation posted on our website under “Investors – Events and Presentations.” Given freight market volatility, the FFA curve is subject to change.
3 We believe the non-GAAP measure presented provides investors with a means of better evaluating and understanding the Company’s operating performance. Adjusted net income and adjusted EBITDA exclude non-cash impairment charges, other operating expense, net gains on vessel sales and unrealized losses on fuel hedges. Please see Summary Consolidated Financial and Other Data below for further reconciliation. Regarding Q3 2026 TCE, this estimate is based on both period and current spot fixtures, actual results will vary from current estimates. Net revenue is defined as voyage revenues minus voyage expenses, charter hire expenses and realized gains or losses on fuel hedges.
Comprehensive Value Strategy
Genco’s consistent comprehensive value strategy is centered on three pillars:
- Dividends: paying sizeable quarterly cash dividends to shareholders
- Deleveraging: maintain low financial leverage and a low cash flow breakeven rate, and
- Growth: opportunistically renewing and growing our asset base
Key characteristics of our strategy include:
- Net loan-to-value of 18% at June 30, 20264
- Strong liquidity position of $423.6 million at June 30, 2026, which consists of:
- $73.6 million in cash on the balance sheet
- $350.0 million of undrawn revolver availability
- High operating leverage with our scalable fleet across the major and minor bulk sectors
4 Represents the principal amount of our credit facility debt outstanding less our cash and cash equivalents as of June 30, 2026 divided by estimates of the market value of our fleet based on the average of broker valuations received from two independent third-party firms as of July 15, 2026. The actual market value of our vessels may vary.
Fleet Renewal and Growth
The Company expects to take delivery of the Genco Volunteer, a 2019 Imabari built 182,000 dwt scrubber-fitted Capesize vessel, in August 2026. We drew down $50.0 million under our $680 million revolving credit facility (the “$680 Million Revolver”) in July 2026 to partially fund this acquisition. We have $58.5 million of remaining capital expenditures for this acquisition after funding $6.5 million in Q2 2026. Pro forma for this vessel acquisition, we expect to have $380 million of debt outstanding and $300 million of undrawn revolver availability.
Dividend Policy
Genco declared a cash dividend of $0.80 per share for the second quarter of 2026. The Q2 2026 dividend is payable on or about August 24, 2026 to all shareholders of record as of August 17, 2026.
Quarterly dividend policy: 100% of quarterly operating cash flow less a voluntary reserve.
Under the quarterly dividend policy adopted by our Board of Directors, the amount available for quarterly dividends is to be calculated based on the formula in the table below. The table includes the calculation of the actual Q2 2026 dividend:
| Dividend calculation | Q2 2026 actual | |||
| Net revenue | $ | 92 | ||
| Operating expenses | $ | (38) | ||
| Operating cash flow | $ | 55 | ||
| Less: voluntary quarterly reserve | $ | (19.5) | ||
| Cash flow distributable as dividends | $ | 35 | ||
| Dividend per share | $ | 0.80 | ||
| Numbers in millions except per share amounts | ||||
Operating cash flow is defined as net revenue (consisting of voyage revenue less voyage expenses, charter hire expenses, and realized gains or losses on fuel hedges), less operating expenses (consisting of vessel operating expenses, general and administrative expenses other than non-cash restricted stock expenses, technical management expenses, and interest expense other than non-cash deferred financing costs), for purposes of the foregoing calculation.
The voluntary quarterly reserve for the third quarter of 2026 under the Company’s dividend formula is targeted at $19.5 million, which remains fully within our discretion. A key component of Genco’s value strategy is maintaining a voluntary quarterly reserve, as well as the optionality for the use of the reserve as Genco seeks to pay sizeable dividends across the cyclicality of the drybulk market while continuing to invest in our fleet. Subject to the development of freight rates for the remainder of the third quarter and our assessment of our liquidity and forward outlook, we maintain flexibility to reduce the quarterly reserve to pay dividends or increase the amount of dividends otherwise payable under our formula. The reserve is set by our Board of Directors at its discretion, and our Board has generally allotted an amount for anticipated debt prepayments plus an additional amount. We plan to set the voluntary reserve on a quarterly basis for the subsequent quarter.
Anticipated uses for the voluntary reserve include, but are not limited to:
- Vessel acquisitions
- Debt repayments, and
- General corporate purposes
The Board expects to reassess the payment of dividends as appropriate from time to time. Our quarterly dividend policy and declaration and payment of dividends are subject to legally available funds, compliance with applicable law and contractual obligations (including our credit facility) and the Board of Directors’ determination that each declaration and payment is at the time in the best interests of the Company and its shareholders after its review of our financial performance.
Peter Allen, Chief Financial Officer, commented, “We delivered strong second quarter results, driven by our considerable operating leverage and growing asset base of high quality vessels. The investments we have made in our fleet have strengthened our cash flow generation and increased our net asset value, demonstrating the value of our disciplined and strategic approach to capital allocation. We generated adjusted EBITDA of $56.7 million in the second quarter and $92.9 million during the first half of 2026, exceeding our total EBITDA in all of 2025. Building on our strong Q2 dividends, we are well positioned to continue to take advantage of the strong drybulk market and our industry low breakeven levels to deliver even higher dividends to shareholders in Q3 2026. We continue to balance our high operating leverage and low financial leverage, enabling Genco to take capture growth opportunities that expand our earnings power and dividend capacity for the benefit of all Genco shareholders.”
Genco’s Active Commercial Operating Platform and Fleet Deployment Strategy
We utilize a portfolio approach towards revenue generation through a combination of:
- Short-term, spot market employment, and
- Strategically booking longer term fixed rate coverage based on market timing and management’s outlook
Our fleet deployment strategy currently remains weighted towards short-term fixtures, which provide us with optionality on our sizeable fleet.
Based on current fixtures to date, our estimated TCE to date for the third quarter of 2026 on a load-to-discharge basis is presented below. Actual rates for the third quarter will vary based upon future fixtures. These estimates are based on time charter contracts entered by the Company as well as current spot fixtures on the load-to-discharge method, whereby revenue is recognized ratably over the voyage from the commencement of loading to the completion of discharge. The actual TCE rates to be earned will depend on the number of contracted days and the number of ballast days at the end of the period. According to the load-to-discharge accounting method, the Company does not recognize revenue for any ballast days or uncontracted days at the end of the third quarter of 2026. At the same time, expenses for uncontracted days will be recognized as incurred.
| Estimated net TCE – Q3 2026 to Date | |||||
| Vessel Type | TCE | % Fixed | |||
| Newc/Cape | $ | 38,059 | 69% | ||
| Ultra/Supra | $ | 20,394 | 63% | ||
| Total | $ | 28,587 | 66% | ||

Financial Review: Second Quarter 2026
The Company recorded net income for the second quarter of 2026 of $16.6 million, or $0.38 and $0.37 basic and diluted earnings per share, respectively. Adjusted net income of $29.2 million or basic and diluted earnings per share of $0.67 and $0.65, respectively, excluding a net gain on sale of vessels of $1.9 million, impairment of vessel assets of $1.2 million, other operating expense of $13.1 million and unrealized loss on fuel hedges of $0.2 million. Comparatively, for the three months ended June 30, 2025, the Company recorded a net loss of $6.8 million, or $0.16 basic and diluted net loss per share. Adjusted net loss for the three months ended June 30, 2025 amounted to $6.2 million, or $0.14 basic and diluted net loss per share, excluding a non-cash vessel impairment charge of $0.7 million.
Revenue / TCE
The Company’s revenues increased to $136.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $80.9 million recorded for the three months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher rates earned by our major and minor bulk vessels, the operation of a larger fleet, as well as fewer drydocking days during the second quarter of 2026 as compared to the second quarter of 2025. The average daily time charter equivalent, or TCE, rates for the Company’s fleet was $24,273 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to $13,631 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2025.
Voyage expenses
Voyage expenses increased to $44.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $32.0 million during the prior year period. The increase was primarily due to the operation of a larger fleet, higher bunker consumption and higher overall port and agency fees, partially offset by the operation of a lower number of third-party chartered-in vessels.
Vessel operating expenses
Vessel operating expenses increased to $26.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $23.7 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025. Daily vessel operating expenses, or DVOE, amounted to $6,757 per vessel per day for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $6,213 per vessel per day for the second quarter of 2025. The increase in DVOE was primarily due to higher crew costs and insurance costs, as well as the timing of the purchase of stores and spares.
We believe daily vessel operating expenses are best measured for comparative purposes over a 12-month period in order to take into account all of the expenses that each vessel in our fleet will incur over a full year of operation. Based on current estimates, our DVOE budget for Q3 2026 is $6,750 per vessel per day on a fleet-wide basis.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses increased to $7.9 million for the second quarter of 2026 compared to $7.4 million for the second quarter of 2025.
Depreciation and amortization expenses
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $22.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 from $18.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2025 primarily due to an increase in vessel depreciation expense for vessels delivered during the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026, as well as an increase in drydocking amortization expense for certain vessels in our fleet.
EBITDA
EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2026 was $44.2 million compared to $13.6 million during the prior year period. During the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, EBITDA included a gain on sale of vessels, impairment of vessel assets, other operating expenses, as well as unrealized gains and losses on fuel hedges. Excluding these items, our adjusted EBITDA was $56.7 million and $14.3 million, for the respective periods.
Financial Review: Six Months 2026
The Company recorded net income of $26.0 million, or $0.59 and $0.58 basic and diluted earnings per share, respectively, for the six months ended June 30, 2026. This compares to a net loss of $18.7 million, or $0.43 basic and diluted net loss per share, for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Revenue / TCE
The Company’s revenues increased to $250.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 compared to $152.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025, primarily due to higher rates earned by our major and minor bulk vessels, the operation of a larger fleet, as well as fewer drydocking days during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025. TCE rates obtained by the Company increased to $21,836 per day for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $12,750 per day for the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Voyage expenses
Voyage expenses increased to $80.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $59.4 million for the same period in 2025. The increase was primarily due to the operation of a larger fleet, higher bunker consumption, as well as higher overall port and agency fees.
Vessel operating expenses
Vessel operating expenses increased to $53.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $48.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025. DVOE was $6,781 for the six months of 2026 versus $6,401 in the six months of 2025. The increase in DVOE was primarily due to the higher crew costs and insurance costs, as well as the timing of the purchase of stores.
General and administrative expenses
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2026 increased to $16.0 million as compared to $14.9 million in the same period of 2025, primarily due to higher nonvested stock amortization expense.
Depreciation and amortization expenses
Depreciation and amortization expenses increased to $43.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 from $35.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2025 due to an increase in drydocking amortization expense for certain vessels in our fleet, as well as an increase in vessel depreciation expense for vessels delivered during the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.
EBITDA
EBITDA for the six months ended June 30, 2026 amounted to $78.3 million compared to $21.6 million during the prior year period. During the six months of 2026 and 2025, EBITDA included a gain on sale of vessels, impairment of vessel assets, other operating expenses, as well as unrealized gains and losses on fuel hedges. Excluding these items, our adjusted EBITDA amounted to $92.9 million and $22.2 million, for the respective periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Cash Flow
Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $48.9 million and $8.3 million, respectively. This increase in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to higher rates earned by our major and minor bulk vessels, as well as changes in working capital. Additionally, there was a decrease in drydocking costs incurred during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $122.2 million and $6.7 million, respectively. This fluctuation was primarily a result of a $137.4 million increase in the purchase of vessel assets due to the purchase of the Genco Stars and Stripes and the Genco Valkyrie, which were delivered on March 5, 2026 and March 24, 2026, respectively, as well as the deposit made on May 1, 2026 for the Genco Volunteer, which is expected to be delivered in August 2026. The increase in net cash used in investing activities was partially offset by $21.1 million net proceeds from the sale of the Genco Picardy and the Genco Predator on March 30, 2026 and April 15, 2026, respectively.
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities during the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025 was $91.3 million and ($9.9) million, respectively. On February 27, 2026, our $600 million credit facility (the “$600 Million Revolver”) was refinanced with the $680 Million Revolver. As part of the debt modification, $4.3 million was settled net among the lenders of the $600 Million Revolver and $680 Million Revolver. The fluctuation resulted primarily from drawdowns totaling $130.0 million on the $600 Million Revolver and the $680 Million Revolver made by the Company during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to drawdowns of only $10.0 million on the $500 Million Revolver during the six months ended June 30, 2025. This increase in cash provided by financing activities was partially offset by a $18.0 million increase in the payment of dividends and a $0.8 million increase in the payment of deferred financing costs related to the $680 Million Revolver during the six months ended June 30, 2026 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2025.
Capital Expenditures
Genco’s current fleet consists of 43 vessels with an average age of 12.8 years and an aggregate capacity of approximately 4,935,000 dwt:
- Two Newcastlemaxes and 17 Capesizes
- 15 Ultramaxes and 9 Supramaxes
In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake, we will incur additional capital expenditures due to special surveys and drydockings. Furthermore, we plan to upgrade a portion of our fleet with energy saving devices and apply high performance paint systems to our vessels in order to reduce fuel consumption and emissions.
We estimate our capital expenditures related to drydocking, including capitalized costs incurred during drydocking related to vessel assets and vessel equipment, ballast water treatment system costs, fuel efficiency upgrades and scheduled off-hire days for our fleet for the balance of 2026 and 2027 to be:
| Estimated costs ($ in millions) | Q3 2026 | Q4 2026 | Q1 2027 | Q2 2027 | Q3 2027 | Q4 2027 | |||||||
| Drydock Costs(1) | $ | 8.10 | $ | 6.90 | $ | 8.80 | $ | 2.20 | $ | 7.30 | $ | 7.30 | |
| Fleet Upgrade Costs (2) | $ | 1.44 | $ | – | $ | 0.27 | $ | – | $ | – | $ | – | |
| Total Costs | $ | 9.54 | $ | 6.90 | $ | 9.07 | $ | 2.20 | $ | 7.30 | $ | 7.30 | |
| Estimated Offhire Days(3) | 150 | 105 | 180 | 35 | 135 | 130 | |||||||
(1) Estimates are based on our budgeted cost of drydocking our vessels in China. Actual costs will vary based on various factors, including where the drydockings are actually performed. We expect to fund these costs with cash on hand. These costs do not include drydock expense items that are reflected in vessel operating expenses.
(2) Estimated costs associated with the installation of fuel efficiency and other upgrades are expected to be funded with cash on hand.
(3) Actual length will vary based on the condition of the vessel, yard schedules and other factors. The estimated offhire days per sector scheduled for Q3 2026 consists of 90 total days for two Capesizes, 55 total days for two Ultramaxes and 5 days for one Supramax.

1) EBITDA represents net income (loss) attributable to Genco Shipping & Trading Limited plus net interest expense, taxes, and depreciation and amortization. EBITDA is included because it is used by management and certain investors as a measure of operating performance. EBITDA is used by analysts in the shipping industry as a common performance measure to compare results across peers. Our management uses EBITDA as a performance measure in consolidating internal financial statements and it is presented for review at our board meetings. We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors as the shipping industry is capital intensive which often results in significant depreciation and cost of financing. EBITDA presents investors with a measure in addition to net income to evaluate our performance prior to these costs. EBITDA is not an item recognized by U.S. GAAP (i.e. non-GAAP measure) and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other indicator of a company’s operating performance required by U.S. GAAP. EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or cash flows as shown in our consolidated statement of cash flows. The definition of EBITDA used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies.
2) Average number of vessels is the number of vessels that constituted our fleet for the relevant period, as measured by the sum of the number of days each vessel was part of our fleet during the period divided by the number of calendar days in that period.
3) We define ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet has been owned by us. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during a period.
4) We define chartered-in days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which we chartered-in third-party vessels.
5) We define available days as the number of our ownership days and chartered-in days less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to familiarization upon acquisition, repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys. Companies in the shipping industry generally use available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.
6) We define available days for the owned fleet as available days less chartered-in days.
7) We define operating days as the number of our total available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that the vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.
8) We calculate fleet utilization as the number of our operating days during a period divided by the number of ownership days plus chartered-in days less drydocking days.
9) We define TCE rates as our voyage revenues less voyage expenses, charter hire expenses, and realized gain or losses on fuel hedges, divided by the number of the available days of our owned fleet during the period. TCE rate is not an item recognized by U.S. GAAP (i.e., it is a non-GAAP measure). However it is a common shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because charterhire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per-day amounts while charterhire rates for vessels on time charters generally are expressed in such amounts. Our estimated TCE for the third quarter of 2026 is based on fixtures booked to date. Actual results may vary based on the actual duration of voyages and other factors. Accordingly, we are unable to provide, without unreasonable efforts, a reconciliation of estimated TCE for the third quarter to the most comparable financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP.

10) We define daily vessel operating expenses to include crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance expenses relating to repairs and maintenance (excluding drydocking), the costs of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses. Daily vessel operating expenses are calculated by dividing vessel operating expenses by ownership days for the relevant period.
