^(1)^ Incorporated under the laws of the Marshall Islands, this entity serves as the Company’s vessel owning subsidiaries’ cash manager with effect from November 1, 2021.

The accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and applicable rules and regulations of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and notes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. These statements and the accompanying notes should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2021, filed with the SEC on March 31, 2022 (the “2021 Annual Report”).

These

    unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the annual financial statements and, in the opinion of management, reflect all adjustments, which include only normal recurring adjustments
    considered necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented. Operating results for the six-month period ended June 30, 2022, are not necessarily indicative of the
    results that might be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2022.
2. Significant Accounting Policies and<br> Recent Accounting Pronouncements:

A discussion of the Company’s significant accounting policies can be found in the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report. Apart from the below, there have been no material changes to these policies in the six-month period ended June 30, 2022.

New significant accounting policies adopted during the six months ended June 30, 2022

Vessels held for sale:

The Company classifies a vessel as being held for sale when all of the following criteria, enumerated under ASC 360 “Property, Plant, and Equipment”, are met: (i) management has committed to a plan to sell the vessel; (ii) the vessel is available for immediate sale in its present condition; (iii) an active program to locate a buyer and other actions required to complete the plan to sell the vessel have been initiated; (iv) the sale of the vessel is probable, and transfer of the asset is expected to qualify for recognition as a completed sale within one year; (v) the vessel is being actively marketed for sale at a price that is reasonable in relation to its current fair value; and (vi) actions required to complete the plan indicate that it is unlikely that significant changes to the plan will be made or that the plan will be withdrawn. Vessels classified as held for sale are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. The resulting difference, if any, is recorded under “Impairment loss” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income. A vessel ceases being depreciated once it meets the held for sale classification criteria.

For a further description of the terms and rights of the Company’s capital stock and details of its previous equity transactions please refer to Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.

June 2021 at-the-market common stock offering program, as amended on March 31, 2022 (the “ATM Program”)

On June 14, 2021 (the “ATM Program Effective Date”), the Company entered into an equity distribution agreement which was amended and restated on March 31, 2022 (the “Equity Distribution Agreement’). Under the Equity Distribution Agreement, until June 14, 2022, the Company could, from time to time, offer and sell its common shares through an at-the-market offering (the “ATM Program”), having an aggregate offering price of up to $150.0 million. No warrants, derivatives, or other share classes were associated with this transaction. No sales have been effected under the ATM Program during the period ended June 30, 2022, whereas, during the six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company issued and sold 3,563,407 shares, thereby raising gross and net proceeds of $10.1 and $9.7 million, respectively. From the ATM Program Effective Date through to June 14, 2022, the Company had raised gross and net proceeds (after deducting sales commissions and other fees and expenses) of $12.9 million and $12.4 million, respectively, by issuing and selling 4,654,240 common shares under the ATM Program.

Reverse Stock Split

On May 28, 2021, the Company effected a one-for-ten reverse stock split of its common stock without any change in the number of authorized common shares. All share and per share amounts, as well as warrant shares eligible for purchase under the Company’s effective warrant schemes in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements have been retroactively adjusted to reflect the reverse stock split.

8. Financial Instruments and Fair Value<br> Disclosures:

The principal financial assets of the Company consist of cash at banks, restricted cash, trade accounts receivable and amounts due from related party. The principal financial liabilities of the Company consist of trade accounts payable, amounts due to related parties and long-term debt.

The following methods and assumptions were used to estimate the fair value of each class of financial instruments:

Cash and cash equivalents, restricted cash, accounts<br> receivable trade, net, amounts due from/to related party/(ies) and accounts payable: The carrying values reported in the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated balance sheets for those financial instruments are reasonable estimates of their fair values due to their short-term<br> maturity nature. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash, current are considered Level 1 items as they represent liquid assets with short term maturities. The carrying value approximates the fair market value for interest bearing<br> cash classified as restricted cash, non-current due to the variable interest nature thereof and is considered Level 1 item of the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value of these instruments is reflected in the accompanying unaudited<br> interim consolidated balance sheets.
Long-term debt: The secured credit facilities discussed in Note 6, have a recorded<br> value which is a reasonable estimate of their fair value due to their variable interest rate and are thus considered Level 2 items in accordance with the fair value hierarchy as LIBOR and SOFR rates are observable at commonly quoted<br> intervals for the full terms of the loans.
--- ---

Concentration

      of credit risk: Financial instruments, which
      potentially subject the Company to significant concentrations of credit risk, consist principally of cash and cash equivalents and trade accounts receivable. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents, consisting mostly of deposits, with
      high credit qualified financial institutions. The Company performs periodic evaluations of the relative credit standing of the financial institutions in which it places its deposits. The Company limits its credit risk with accounts receivable by
      performing ongoing credit evaluations of its customers’ financial condition.

9. Commitments and contingencies:

Various claims, lawsuits, and complaints, including those involving government regulations and product liability, arise in the ordinary course of the shipping business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers, agents, insurance and other claims with suppliers relating to the operations of the Company’s vessels. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities, which should be disclosed, or for which a provision should be established in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements.

The Company accrues for the cost of environmental liabilities when management becomes aware that a liability is probable and is able to reasonably estimate the probable exposure. Currently, management is not aware of any such claims or contingent liabilities, which should be disclosed, or for which a provision should be established in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company is covered for liabilities associated with the vessels’ actions to the maximum limits as provided by Protection and Indemnity (P&I) Clubs, members of the International Group of P&I Clubs.

(a) Commitments under contracts for ballast water treatment system (“BWTS”) installation

The Company had originally entered into contracts to purchase and install BWTS on ten of its vessels.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had completed and put into use the BWTS installation on two of the remaining nine vessels, whereas, it was also in the process of installing one BWTS on another of these vessels, which was completed in July 2022. Of the Company’s remaining contracted BWTS installations as of June 30, 2022, four are expected to be concluded during the remaining of 2022 and two during 2024. It is estimated that the remaining contractual obligations related to these purchases, excluding installation costs, will be on aggregate approximately €1.9 million (or $2.0 million on the basis of a Euro/US Dollar exchange rate of €1.0000/$1.0489 as of June 30, 2022), of which €0.7 million (or $0.7 million) are due in 2022 and €1.2 million (or $1.3 million) are due in 2024. These costs will be capitalized and depreciated over the remainder of the life of each vessel.

As further disclosed under Note 8 of the 2021 Annual Report, the Series A Preferred Shares were redeemed in full on December 8, 2021 and dividends on the Series A Preferred Shares did not accrue nor accumulate during the period from July 1, 2019 through their redemption date. As a result, no dividend effect from the Series A Preferred Shares has been considered in the earnings per share calculations in the accompanying unaudited interim condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income.

Diluted earnings per share, if applicable, reflects the potential dilution that could occur if potentially dilutive instruments were exercised, resulting in the issuance of additional shares that would then share in the Company’s net income. For the six months ended June 30, 2021, the denominator of diluted earnings per common share calculation includes the incremental shares assumed issued under the treasury stock method weighted for the period the shares were outstanding with respect to warrants that were outstanding during that period. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the effect of the (i) 62,344 Class A Warrants, (ii) 67,864 Private Placement Warrants and (iii) April 7 Warrants outstanding during that period and as of that date, would be antidilutive, hence were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share. For more information on the terms and conditions of these securities, please refer to Note 8 of the consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, included in the Company’s 2021 Annual Report.

11. Vessel Revenues:
--- ---

The following table includes the voyage revenues earned by the Company by type of contract (time charters, voyage charters and pool agreements):

Six<br> months ended<br><br> <br>June 30, Six<br> months ended<br><br> <br>June 30,
2021 2022
Time charter revenues $ 27,635,487 $ 84,365,727
Voyage charter revenues 693,471 29,592,279
Pool revenues 433,678 8,180,973
Total Vessel revenues $ 28,762,636 $ 122,138,979

The Company generates its revenues from time charters, voyage contracts and pool arrangements.

The Company typically enters into time charters ranging from one month to twelve months and in isolated cases on longer terms depending on market conditions. The charterer has the full discretion over the ports visited, shipping routes and vessel speed, subject to the owner protective restrictions discussed below. Time charter agreements may have extension options ranging from months, to sometimes, years. The time charter party generally provides, among others, typical warranties regarding the speed and the performance of the vessel as well as owner protective restrictions such that the vessel is sent only to safe ports by the charterer, subject always to compliance with applicable sanction laws and war risks, and carries only lawful and non-hazardous cargo.

Vessels are also chartered under voyage charters, where a contract is made for the use of a vessel under which the Company is paid freight on the basis of transporting cargo from a loading port to a discharge port. Depending on charterparty terms, freight can be fully prepaid, or be paid upon reaching the discharging destination upon delivery of the cargo, at the discharging destination but before discharging, or during a vessel’s voyage.

The Company employs certain of its vessels in pools. The main objective of pools is to enter into arrangements for the employment and operation of the pool vessels, so as to secure for the pool participants the highest commercially available earnings per vessel on the basis of pooling the revenue and expenses of the pool vessels and dividing it between the pool participants based on the terms of the pool agreement.

As of June 30, 2022, trade accounts receivable, net increased by $2,796,675 and deferred revenue decreased by $1,335,331, as compared to December 31, 2021. These changes were mainly attributable to the timing of collections and the timing of commencement of revenue recognition.

11. Vessel Revenues (continued):

As of December 31, 2021, and June 30, 2022, deferred assets related to revenue contracts amounted to $191,234 and $64,224, respectively, and are presented under ‘Deferred charges, net’ (Current) in the accompanying unaudited interim consolidated balance sheets. This change was mainly attributable to the timing of commencement of revenue recognition.

The balance of deferred contract fulfilment costs and deferred revenue as of June 30, 2022, is expected to be recognized in earnings within the third quarter of 2022, as the performance obligations under the respective contracts will be satisfied in that period.

16. Subsequent Events:
--- ---

(a) Sale of the M/T Wonder Arcturus: On July 15, 2022, the Company completed the previously announced sale of the M/T Wonder Arcturus by delivering the vessel to its new owners. The Company expects to record during the third quarter of 2022 a gain on the sale of the subject vessel of approximately $3.7 million, excluding any transaction related costs.

(b) Entry into the Amended and Restated Master Management Agreement: The Company entered into an Amended and Restated Master Management Agreement with Castor Ships, effective July 1, 2022. Under such agreement, Castor Ships has agreed to manage the Company’s business overall and provide the Company with a wide range of shipping services such as crew management, technical management, operational employment management, insurance management, provisioning, bunkering, accounting and audit support services, commercial, chartering and administrative services, including, but not limited to, securing employment for the Company’s fleet, arranging and supervising the vessels’ commercial operations, providing technical assistance where requested in connection with the sale of a vessel, negotiating loan and credit terms for new financing upon request and providing general corporate and administrative services, among other matters. Castor Ships shall generally not be liable to the Company for any loss, damage, delay or expense incurred during the provision of the foregoing services, except insofar as such events arise from Castor Ships or its employees’ fraud, gross negligence or willful misconduct (for which our recovery will be limited to two times the Flat Management Fee, as defined below). Notwithstanding the foregoing, Castor Ships shall in no circumstances be responsible for the actions of the crews of our vessels. The Company has also agreed to indemnify Castor Ships in certain circumstances. Under the terms of the Master Management Agreement, the Company’s shipowning subsidiaries have also entered into separate management agreements appointing Castor Ships as commercial and technical manager of their vessels (collectively, the “Ship Management Agreements”).

Castor Ships may choose to subcontract or apportion some of these services to other parties at its discretion. As of the date of this hereof, Castor Ships has subcontracted, with the Company’s consent, the technical management of all of the Company’s tanker vessels to third-party ship-management companies and is co-managing all of its dry bulk vessels with Pavimar. Castor Ships pays, at its own expense, the tanker third-party technical management companies a fee for the services it has subcontracted to them, without burdening the Company with any additional cost.

In exchange for these services, the Company and its subsidiaries, with effect from July 1, 2022 pay Castor Ships (i) a flat quarterly management fee in the amount of $0.75 million for the management and administration of their business (the “Flat Management Fee”),

(ii) a commission of 1.25% on all gross income received from the operation of their vessels, and (iii) a commission of 1% on each consummated sale and purchase transaction. In addition, each of the Company’s subsidiaries have agreed to pay a daily fee of $925 per dry bulk vessel (

Pavimar is paid directly by the shipowning subsidiaries a proportionate fee of $600 per day per dry bulk vessel and Castor Ships is paid the residual amount of $325 of the agreed Ship Management Fee),

and a daily fee of $975 per tanker vessel is paid to

          Castor Ships for the provision of commercial and technical ship management services provided under the Ship Management Agreements \(the “Ship Management Fee”\). The Ship Management Fee and Flat Management Fee will be adjusted annually for
          inflation on each anniversary of the Amended and Restated Master Management Agreement’s effective date. The Company may also reimburse Castor Ships for extraordinary fees and costs, such as the costs of extraordinary repairs, maintenance or
          structural changes to the Company’s vessels.

The Amended and Restated Master Management Agreement has a term of eight years from its effective date and this term automatically renews for a successive eight-year term on each anniversary of the effective date, starting from the first anniversary of the effective date, unless the agreements are terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions contained therein. In the event that the Amended and Restated Master Management Agreement is terminated by the Company or is terminated by Castor Ships due to a material breach of the master management agreement by the Company or a change of control in the Company (including certain business combinations, such as a merger or the disposal of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets or changes in key personnel such as the Company’s current directors or Chief Executive Officer), Castor Ships shall be entitled to a termination fee equal to seven times the total amount of the Flat Management Fee calculated on an annual basis. This termination fee is in addition to any termination fees provided for under each Ship Management Agreement.

Business Overview and Fleet Information

We are a growth-oriented global shipping company that was incorporated in the Republic of the Marshall Islands in September 2017 for the purpose of acquiring, owning, chartering and operating oceangoing cargo vessels. We are a provider of worldwide seaborne transportation services for dry bulk cargo as well as crude oil and refined petroleum products.

We currently operate a fleet consisting of twenty dry bulk carriers that engage in the worldwide transportation of commodities such as iron ore, coal, soybeans etc., with an aggregate cargo carrying capacity of 1.7 million dwt and an average age of 12.7 years, six Aframax/LR2 tankers that engage in the worldwide transportation of crude oil, with an aggregate cargo carrying capacity of 0.7 million dwt and an average age of 17.5 years and two Handysize tankers that carry oil and petroleum products, with an aggregate cargo carrying capacity of 0.1 million dwt and an average age of 16.5 years (together, our “Fleet”). The average age of our entire Fleet is 14.0 years. Our management reviews and analyzes operating results for our business over three reportable segments, (i) Dry bulk vessels, (ii) Aframax/LR2 tanker vessels, and (iii) Handysize tanker vessels.

Our Fleet currently operates in the time charter and voyage charter markets, while some of our tanker vessels currently operate in pools. Our commercial strategy primarily focuses on deploying our Fleet under a mix of period time charters, trip time charters and, more particularly for our tanker vessels, spot market agreements (either by entering into trip voyage charters or in pools) according to our assessment of market conditions. Our aim is to periodically adjust the mix of these chartering arrangements to take advantage of the relatively stable cash flows and high utilization rates associated with period time charters or to profit from attractive spot charter rates in the trip charter market or in spot-oriented pools during periods of strong charter market conditions.

During the six-months ended June 30, 2022, our Fleet was technically managed by Pavimar S.A., or Pavimar, a related party controlled by the sister of Petros Panagiotidis, Ismini Panagiotidis,

    and commercially managed by Castor Ships S.A, or Castor Ships, a company controlled by Mr. Petros Panagiotidis. With effect from July 1, 2022, our vessels are technically and commercially managed by Castor Ships.

--- ---

We intend to continuously explore the market in order to identify potential acquisition targets which will help us grow our Fleet and business. Our acquisition strategy has so far focused on secondhand Capesize, Kamsarmax, and Panamax dry bulk vessels as well as Aframax, Aframax/LR2 and Handysize tanker vessels, although we may acquire vessels in other sizes, age and/or sectors which we believe offer attractive investment opportunities. We may also opportunistically dispose of vessels and may engage in such acquisitions and disposals at any time and from time to time.

Recent Developments

Please refer to Note 16 to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere herein, for developments that took place after June 30, 2022.

Operating results

Important measures and definitions for analyzing our results of operations

Our management uses the following metrics to evaluate our operating results, including the operating results of our segments, and to allocate capital accordingly:

Vessel Revenues. Vessel revenues are primarily generated from time charters, voyage charters and pool arrangements. Vessel revenues are affected by the number of vessels in our Fleet, hire rates and the number of days a vessel operates which, in turn, are affected by several factors, including the amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels, the amount of time that our vessels spend in dry dock undergoing repairs, maintenance and upgrade work, the age, condition and specifications of our vessels, and levels of supply and demand in the seaborne transportation market. Vessel revenues are also affected by our commercial strategy related to the employment mix of our Fleet between vessels on time charters, vessels operating on voyage charters and vessels in pools.

Vessels operating on time charters for a certain period provide more predictable cash flows over that period. Revenues from vessels in pools and on voyage charter are more volatile, as they are typically tied to prevailing market rates. We measure revenues in each segment for three separate activities: (i) time charter revenues, (ii) voyage charter revenues, and (iii) pool revenues. For a breakdown and further discussion of vessel revenues, please refer to Note 11 to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this report.

Voyage expenses. Our voyage expenses primarily consist of bunker expenses, port and canal expenses and brokerage commissions paid in connection with the chartering of our vessels. Voyage expenses are incurred primarily during voyage charters or when the vessel is repositioning or unemployed. Bunker expenses, port and canal dues increase in periods during which vessels are employed on voyage charters because these expenses are in this case borne by us. Gain/loss on bunkers may also arise where the cost of the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer is greater or less than the cost of the bunker fuel acquired.

Operating expenses. We are responsible for vessel operating costs, which include crewing, expenses for repairs and maintenance, the cost of insurance, tonnage taxes, the cost of spares and consumable stores, lubricating oils costs, communication expenses, and other expenses. Expenses for repairs and maintenance tend to fluctuate from period to period because most repairs and maintenance typically occur during periodic drydocking. Our ability to control our vessels’ operating expenses also affects our financial results. Daily vessel operating expenses are calculated by dividing Fleet operating expenses by the Ownership days for the relevant period.

Off-hire. The period a vessel in our Fleet is unable to perform the services for which it is required under a charter for reasons such as scheduled repairs, vessel upgrades, dry-dockings or special or intermediate surveys or other unforeseen events.

Dry-docking/Special Surveys. We periodically dry-dock and/or perform special surveys on vessels in our Fleet for inspection, repairs and maintenance and any modifications to comply with industry certification or governmental requirements. Our ability to control our dry-docking and special survey expenses and our ability to complete our scheduled dry-dockings and/or special surveys on time also affects our financial results. Dry-docking and special survey costs are accounted under the deferral method whereby the actual costs incurred are deferred and are amortized on a straight-line basis over the period through the date the next survey is scheduled to become due.

Ownership Days. Ownership Days are the total number of calendar days in a period during which we owned a vessel. Ownership Days are an indicator of the size of our Fleet over a period and determine both the level of revenues and expenses recorded during that specific period.

3


Available Days. Available Days are the Ownership Days in a period less the aggregate number of days our vessels are off-hire due to scheduled repairs, dry-dockings or special or intermediate surveys. The shipping industry uses Available Days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels are available to generate revenues. Our calculation of Available Days may not be comparable to that reported by other companies.

Operating Days. Operating Days are the Available Days in a period after subtracting unscheduled off-hire days and idle days.

Fleet Utilization. Fleet Utilization is calculated by dividing the Operating Days during a period by the number of Available Days during that period. Fleet Utilization is used to measure a company’s ability to efficiently find suitable employment for its vessels.

Principal factors impacting our business, results of operations and financial condition

Our results of operations are affected by numerous factors. The principal factors that have impacted the business during the fiscal periods presented in the following discussion and analysis and that are likely to continue to impact our business are the following:

-          The levels of demand and supply of seaborne cargoes and vessel tonnage in the dry bulk and tanker shipping industries;

-          The cyclical nature of the shipping industry in general and its impact on charter rates and vessel values;

-          The successful implementation of the Company’s growth business strategy, including our ability to obtain equity and debt financing at acceptable and attractive terms to fund future capital expenditures and/or to implement our business strategy;

-          The global economic growth outlook and trends;

-          Economic, regulatory, political and governmental conditions that affect shipping and the dry bulk and tanker industries, including international conflict or war (or threatened war), such as between Russia and Ukraine;

-          The employment and operation of our Fleet including the utilization rates of our vessels;

-          Our ability to successfully employ our vessels at economically attractive rates and our strategic decisions regarding the employment mix of our Fleet in the time, voyage, and pool charter markets, as our charters expire or are otherwise terminated;

-          Management of the financial, general and administrative elements involved in the conduct of our business and ownership of our Fleet, including the effective and efficient technical management of our Fleet by our head and sub-managers, and their suppliers;

-          The number of charterers who use our services and the performance of their charterers’ obligations under their charter agreements, including their ability to make timely charter payments to us;

-          Our ability to maintain solid working relationships with our existing charterers and our ability to increase the number of our charterers through the development of new working relationships;

-          The vetting approvals by oil majors of our manager and/or sub-managers for the management of our tanker vessels;

-          Dry-docking and special survey costs and duration, both expected and unexpected;

-          The level of any distribution on all classes of our shares;

-          Our borrowing levels and the finance costs related to our outstanding debt as well as our compliance with our debt covenants;

4


-          Management of our financial resources, including banking relationships and of the relationships with our various stakeholders; and

-          Major outbreaks of diseases (such as COVID-19) and governmental responses thereto.

Employment and operation of our Fleet

Another factor that impacts our profitability is the employment and operation of our Fleet. The profitable employment of our Fleet is highly dependent on the levels of demand and supply in the dry bulk and tanker shipping industries, our commercial strategy including the decisions regarding the employment mix of our Fleet among time, voyage and pool charters as well as our managers’ ability to leverage our relationships with existing or potential customers. The effective operation of our Fleet mainly requires regular maintenance and repair, effective crew selection and training, ongoing supply of our Fleet with the spares and the stores that it requires, contingency response planning, auditing of our vessels’ onboard safety procedures, arrangements for our vessels’ insurance, chartering of the vessels, training of onboard and on shore personnel with respect to the vessels’ security and security response plans (ISPS), obtaining of ISM certifications, compliance with environmental regulations and standards, and performing the necessary audit for the vessels within the six months of taking over a vessel and the ongoing performance monitoring of the vessels.

Financial, general and administrative management

The management of financial, general and administrative elements involved in the conduct of our business and ownership of our vessels requires us to manage our financial resources, which includes managing banking relationships, administrating our bank accounts, managing our accounting system, records and financial reporting, monitoring and ensuring compliance with the legal and regulatory requirements affecting our business and assets and managing our relationships with our service providers and customers.

See also “Item 3. Key Information—D. Risk Factors” in our 2021 Annual Report. Because many of these factors are beyond our control and certain of these factors have historically been volatile, past performance is not necessarily indicative of future performance and it is difficult to predict future performance with any degree of certainty.

Vessel revenues, net – Vessel revenues, net of charterers’ commissions, increased to $122.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $28.8 million in the same period of 2021. This increase was largely driven by the growth of our Fleet to 29.0 vessels owned and operated on average during the six months ended June 30, 2022, from 11.6 vessels owned and operated on average during the same period of 2021. The increase in vessel revenues during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared with the same period of 2021, was further underpinned by the continuing solid performance of the dry bulk shipping market and the improved Aframax and Handysize tanker markets, resulting in higher consolidated daily net revenues as compared with those earned during the same period in 2021.

Voyage Expenses – Voyage expenses increased by $19.1 million, to $20.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from  $1.0 million in the corresponding period of 2021. This increase in voyage expenses is mainly associated with the expansion of our tanker segments and their associated commercial activities. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we operated on average 9.0 tankers versus 2.1 tankers operated on average in the corresponding period of 2021.  Further, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, our expanded tanker segments operated mostly under voyage charters (compared to the six months ended June 30, 2021 during which our tankers were primarily employed under time charter contracts and in pools) which resulted in increased bunker consumption and port expenses.  Increased brokerage commission expenses, corresponding to the increase in vessel revenues discussed above, contributed also to the increase in voyage expenses.

Vessel Operating Expenses – The increase in operating expenses by $20.5 million, to $31.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $11.3 million in the same period of 2021 mainly reflects the growth of our Fleet and increased maintenance and insurance costs for a number of our vessels.

Management Fees – Management fees in the six months ended June 30, 2022, amounted to $4.5 million, whereas, in the same period of 2021, management fees totaled $2.5 million. This increase in management fees is primarily due to the sizeable increase of our Fleet, resulting in a substantial increase in the total number of Ownership Days for which our managers charged us a daily management fee.

Depreciation and Amortization – Depreciation and amortization expenses are comprised of vessels’ depreciation and the amortization of vessels’ capitalized dry-dock costs. Depreciation expenses increased to $11.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $3.7 million in the same period of 2021 as a result of the increase in the size of our Fleet. Dry-dock and special survey amortization charges amounted to $0.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, compared to a charge of $0.3 million in the respective period of 2021. This increase in dry-dock amortization charges primarily resulted from the ownership of a larger Fleet, on average, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, which led to an increase in dry-dock amortization days from 555 in the six months ended June 30, 2021, to 1,100 in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

General and Administrative Expenses – General and administrative expenses in the six months ended June 30, 2022, amounted to $2.1 million, whereas, in the same period of 2021, general and administrative expenses totaled $1.5 million, as a result of an increase in our corporate expenses.

Interest and finance costs, net – The increase by $2.5 million in net interest and finance costs in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared with the respective period in the previous year, is mainly due to the increase in the level of our weighted average indebtedness from $36.3 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $149.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Vessel revenues, net

Vessel revenues, net of charterers’ commissions for our dry bulk fleet, increased to $79.6 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $24.4 million in the same period of 2021. This increase was largely driven by the ownership and operation of a larger on average dry bulk fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022 (20.0 vessels), compared to the average dry bulk fleet that we owned and operated in the corresponding period of 2021 (9.6 vessels). The increase in vessel revenues, net during the six months ended June 30, 2022, was further underpinned by the improved charter hire rates that our dry bulk fleet earned in the first half of 2022 as compared with those earned during the same period of 2021.

Voyage Expenses

Voyage expenses increased to $1.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.0 million in the corresponding period of 2021. This increase in voyage expenses is mainly associated with the increase in brokerage commissions by $1.4 million in the first six months of 2022 as compared with the same period in 2021, corresponding with the increase in vessel revenues in the period.

Vessel Operating Expenses

The increase in operating expenses for our dry bulk fleet by $11.9 million, to $20.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $9.0 million in the same period of 2021, mainly reflects the increase in the average number of dry bulk vessels in our Fleet that we owned and operated in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared with the same period of 2021.

Management Fees

Management fees for our dry bulk fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounted to $3.1 million, whereas in the same period of 2021 management fees totaled $2.0 million. This increase in management fees is due to the sizeable increase of our dry bulk fleet, resulting in a substantial increase in the total number of Ownership Days for which our managers charged us a daily management fee.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expenses for our dry bulk fleet increased to $7.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $2.9 million in the same period of 2021 as a result of the increase in the size of our dry bulk fleet. Dry-dock and special survey amortization charges increased to $0.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.4 million in the same period of 2021. The $0.3 million increase in Dry-dock and special survey amortization charges in the periods discussed is also due to the increase in the number of dry docks that our expanded dry bulk fleet underwent, which resulted in an increase in aggregate amortization days from 555 in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to 724 in the same period of 2022.

Interest and finance costs

The increase by $2.4 million in net interest and finance costs of our dry bulk fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared with the same period of 2021, is mainly due to the increase in the level of our weighted average indebtedness from $25.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $133.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Vessel revenues, net

Vessel revenues, net of charterers’ commissions for our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet amounted to $38.2 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, whereas, in the same period of 2021 vessel revenues, net, amounted to $4.3 million. This variation is mainly due to the increase in the number of vessels that comprise our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet as, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, we owned on average 7.0 Aframax/LR2 tanker vessels, compared to 1.8 Aframax/LR2 tanker vessels owned in the corresponding period of 2021. This variation also stems from the increased revenues our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet earned in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as a result of an improved Aframax tanker market, as compared with the same period in 2021.

Voyage Expenses

Voyage expenses for our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet amounted to $18.6 million and $0.9 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. As noted under Vessel revenues, net, during the six months ended June 30, 2022, we owned and operated a substantially larger Aframax/LR2 fleet that operated mostly under voyage charters, under which we bear voyage expenses such as bunkers and port and canal dues, whereas, in the same period in 2021 our smaller Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet operated mostly under time charters under which these expenses are generally borne by our charterers. Voyage expenses for our Aframax/LR2 fleet during the six months ended June 30, 2022, consisted primarily of bunker consumption expenses amounting to $13.2 million, port expenses amounting to $4.1 million and brokerage commissions amounting to $1.3 million.

Vessel Operating Expenses

The increase in operating expenses for our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet by $6.7 million, to $8.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $2.0 million in the same period of 2021, mainly reflects the increase in the number of Aframax/LR2 tanker vessels in our Fleet.

Management Fees

Management fees for our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022, amounted to $1.1 million, whereas, in the same period of 2021, management fees totaled $0.5 million. This increase in management fees is due to the sizeable increase of our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet, resulting in a substantial increase in the total number of Ownership Days for which our managers charged us a daily management fee.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expenses for our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet increased to $3.0 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.7 million in the same period of 2021 as a result of the increase in the size of our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet. Dry-dock and special survey amortization charges did not materially variate in the periods under discussion.

Interest and finance costs

The increase by $0.3 million in net interest and finance costs of our Aframax/LR2 tanker fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared with the same period of 2021, is mainly due to the increase in the level of our weighted average indebtedness from $5.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to $15.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022.

Vessel revenues, net

Vessel revenues, net of charterers’ commissions, for our Handysize tanker fleet amounted to $4.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, whereas, in the same period of 2021 vessel revenues, net, amounted to $0.1 million. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we owned on average two Handysize tanker vessels, both of which were engaged in a pool, whereas, in the six months ended June 30, 2021, only one of our two Handysize tanker vessels, operated in the same pool for only 7 days, as it was acquired in late June 2021. Our other Handysize tanker vessel, which we acquired in May 2021, underwent its scheduled dry-docking repairs until early July 2021, therefore did not earn any revenues in the six months ended June 30, 2021.

Voyage Expenses

Voyage expenses for our Handysize tanker fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, amounted to $0.1 million and $0.0 million, respectively.

Vessel Operating Expenses

The increase in operating expenses for our Handysize tanker fleet by $1.9 million, to $2.1 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.2 million in the same period of 2021, mainly reflects the increase in the average number of Handysize tanker vessels in our Fleet in the periods discussed.

Management Fees

Management fees for our Handysize tanker fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022, amounted to $0.3 million, whereas, in the same period of 2021, management fees totaled $0.1 million. This increase in management fees is due to the increase in the Ownership Days of our Handysize tanker fleet for which our managers charged us a daily management fee.

Depreciation and Amortization

Depreciation expenses for our Handysize tanker fleet increased to $0.4 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022, from $0.0 in the six months ended June 30, 2021 as a result of the increase in the Ownership Days of our Handysize tanker fleet in the six months ended June 30, 2022. As discussed under Vessel revenues, net, above, from late May 2022 and up to early July 2022, one of the two Handysize tanker vessels in our Handysize tanker fleet, the M/T Wonder Mimosa, underwent its scheduled dry-dock and special survey, resulting in dry-dock amortization charges in the six months ended June 30, 2022 amounting to $0.2 million.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We operate in a capital-intensive industry, and we expect to finance the purchase of additional vessels and other capital expenditures through a combination of proceeds from equity offerings, borrowings in debt transactions and cash generated from operations. Our liquidity requirements relate to servicing the principal and interest on our debt, funding capital expenditures and working capital (which includes maintaining the quality of our vessels and complying with international shipping standards and environmental laws and regulations) and maintaining cash reserves for the purpose of satisfying certain minimum liquidity restrictions contained in our credit facilities. In accordance with our business strategy, other liquidity needs may relate to funding potential investments in new vessels and maintaining cash reserves against fluctuations in operating cash flows. Our funding and treasury activities are intended to maximize investment returns while maintaining appropriate liquidity.

For the six months ended June 30, 2022, our principal sources of funds were cash from operations and the incurrence of secured debt as discussed below under “Our Borrowing Activities”. As

    of June 30, 2022, and December 31, 2021, we had cash and cash equivalents of $104.4 million and $37.2 million \(which excludes $10.9 million and $6.2 million of restricted cash in each period under our debt agreements\), respectively. Cash and cash
    equivalents are primarily held in U.S. dollars.

As of June 30, 2022, we had $146.7 million of gross indebtedness outstanding under our debt agreements, of which $30.3 million matures in the twelve-month period ending June 30, 2023. As of June 30, 2022, we were in compliance with all the financial and liquidity covenants contained in our debt agreements.

Working capital is equal to current assets minus current liabilities. As of June 30, 2022, we had a working capital surplus of $93.6 million as compared to a working capital surplus of $21.0 million as of December 31, 2021.

We believe that our current sources of funds and those that we anticipate to internally generate for a period of at least the next twelve months from the date of this report, will be sufficient to fund the operations of our Fleet, meet our working capital and capital expenditures requirements and service the principal and interest on our debt for that period.

We have entered into contracts to purchase and install Ballast Water Treatment System (“BWTS”) on five of our dry bulk carriers, three of our Aframax/LR2 tanker vessels (one of which was sold on May 9, 2022 and delivered to its new owners on July 15, 2022), and our two Handysize tanker vessels. As of June 30, 2022, we had completed and put into use the BWTS installation on one of these five dry bulk carriers, the M/V Magic Sun, and one of our two Handysize tanker vessels, the M/T Wonder Mimosa, and were also in the process of installing BWTS on another of these dry bulk carriers, the M/V Magic Moon. Of the six remaining contracted BWTS system installations, four are expected to be concluded during the remainder of 2022 and two during 2024. As of June 30, 2022, it was estimated that the remaining contractual obligations related to these purchases, excluding installation costs, would be on aggregate approximately €1.9 million (or $2.0 million on the basis of a Euro/US Dollar exchange rate of €1.0000/$1.0489 as of June 30, 2022), of which €0.7 million (or $0.7 million) are due in 2022 and €1.2 million (or $1.3 million) are due in 2024.

Critical Accounting Estimates

We prepare our financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or U.S. GAAP. On a regular basis, management reviews the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material. For more details on our Critical Accounting Estimates, please read “Item 16.E. Critical Accounting Estimates” in our 2021 Annual Report. For a description of our material accounting policies, please read Note 2 to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere in this report, “Item 18. Financial Statements” in our 2021 Annual Report and more precisely “Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in our 2021 Annual Report.
