“On a busy morning, we're proud to be following in the footsteps of Maersk, Janko, Seaways, and last but not least. So before my colleagues provide you with detailed comments on our financial results and an interesting market overview, as well as progress of our operation, I'd like to provide some strategic perspective.”

“Before my colleagues provide you with detailed comments on our financial results, our market outlook, and our operational progress, I'd like to highlight the following.”

“My colleagues will share some useful and interesting information about the past. I'd like to say a few words on capital and location and provide some historical, which relates to risk management and a volatile market with a view to capturing upside.”

“Omar, congratulations on your new position. I'm happy to have you back in the industry.”

“But first, I'd like to highlight the following: our dividend of $0.60 per share, totaling $25.6 million reflects our commitment to returning capital to shareholders in a manner that's aligned with market conditions and our policy of distributing earnings prudently.”
