Overview
The address of the registered office of Globus Maritime Limited (“Globus”) is: Trust Company Complex, Ajeltake Road, Ajeltake Island, Majuro, Marshall Islands MH96960.
The principal business of the Company is the ownership and operation of a fleet of dry bulk motor vessels (“m/v”), providing maritime services for the transportation of dry cargo products on a worldwide basis. The Company conducts its operations through its vessel owning subsidiaries.
The operations of the vessels are managed by Globus Shipmanagement Corp. (the “Manager”), a wholly owned Marshall Islands corporation. The Manager has an office in Greece, located at 128 Vouliagmenis Avenue, 166 74 Glyfada, Greece and provides the commercial, technical, cash management and accounting services necessary for the operation of the fleet in exchange for a management fee. The management fee is eliminated on consolidation.

Results of Operations
Our revenues consist of earnings under the charters on which we employ our vessels. We believe that the important measures for analysing trends in the results of our operations consist of the following:
Revenues
The Company generates its revenues from charterers from the charter hire of its vessels. Vessels are chartered using time charters, where a contract is entered into for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time and a specified daily charter hire rate. If a time charter agreement exists and collection of the related revenue is reasonably assured, revenue is recognised on a straight - line basis over the period of the time charter. Such revenues are treated in accordance with IFRS 16 as lease income while the portion of time charter revenues related to technical management services are recognized in accordance with IFRS 15. Associated broker commissions are recognised on a pro-rata basis over the duration of the period of the time charter. Deferred revenue relates to cash received prior to the financial position date and is related to revenue earned after such date.
| -4- |
For time charters that qualify as leases, the Company is required to disclose lease and non-lease components of voyage revenue. The revenue earned under time charters is not negotiated in its two separate components, but as a whole. For purposes of determining the standalone selling price of the vessel lease and technical management service components of the Company’s time charters, the Company concluded that the residual approach would be the most appropriate method to use given that vessel lease rates are highly variable depending on shipping market conditions, the duration of such charters and the age of the vessel. The Company believes that the standalone transaction price attributable to the technical management service component, including crewing services, is more readily determinable than the price of the lease component and, accordingly, the price of the service component is estimated using data provided by its technical department, which consist of the crew expenses, maintenance and consumable costs and was approximately $6,470 and $9,062 for the six months periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively. The fleet decreased from an average of 8.9 vessels during the 1st half of 2023 to 6.9 vessels for the same period in 2024. The lease component that is disclosed then is calculated as the difference between total revenue and the non-lease component revenue and was $10,577 and $7,171 for the six months periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, respectively.
The Company enters into consultancy agreements with other companies for the purpose of providing consultancy services. For these services the Company receives a fee. The total income from these fees is classified in the income statement component of the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income under management & consulting fee income.
Time Charters
A time charter is a contract for the use of a vessel for a specific period of time during which the charterer pays substantially all of the voyage expenses, including port and canal charges and the cost of bunkers (fuel oil), but the vessel owner pays vessel operating expenses, including the cost of crewing, insuring, repairing and maintaining the vessel, the costs of spares and consumable stores and tonnage taxes. Time charter rates are usually set at fixed rates during the term of the charter. Prevailing time charter rates fluctuate on a seasonal and on a year-to-year basis and, as a result, when employment is being sought for a vessel with an expiring or terminated time charter, the prevailing time charter rates achievable in the time charter market may be substantially higher or lower than the expiring or terminated time charter rate. Fluctuation in time charter rates are influenced by changes in spot charter rates, which are in turn influenced by a number of factors, including vessel supply and demand. The main factors that could increase total vessel operating expenses are crew salaries, insurance premiums, spare parts, repairs that are not covered under insurance policies and lubricant prices.
Voyage Expenses
Voyage expenses primarily consist of port, canal and bunker expenses that are unique to a particular charter under time charter arrangements are paid by the charterers or by the Company under voyage charter arrangements. Furthermore, voyage expenses include brokerage commission on revenue paid by the Company.
Vessel Operating Expenses
Vessel operating expenses primarily consist of crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance, the cost of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses necessary for the operation of the vessel and borne by the owner. All vessel operating expenses are expensed as incurred.
General and Administrative Expenses
The primary components of general and administrative expenses consist of the services of our senior executive officers, and the expenses associated with being a public company. Such public company expenses include the costs of preparing public reporting documents, legal and accounting costs and costs related to compliance with the rules, regulations and requirements of the SEC, the rules of NASDAQ, board of directors’ compensation and investor relations.
Depreciation
We depreciate the cost of our vessels after deducting the estimated residual value, on a straight-line basis over the expected useful life of each vessel, which is estimated to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. We estimated the residual values of our vessels to be $440 per lightweight ton until September 30, 2023. During the fourth quarter of 2023, we adjusted the scrap rate from $440/ton to $480/ton due to the increased scrap rates worldwide.
Interest and Finance Costs
We have historically incurred interest expense and financing costs in connection with the debt incurred to partially finance the acquisition of our existing fleet. The interest rate is calculated based on the three-month SOFR rate and applicable margin.
Gain/(Loss) on derivative financial instruments
The Company enters into interest rate swap agreements to manage its exposure to fluctuations of interest rate risk associated with its borrowings. Interest Rate Swaps are measured at fair value. The Company uses valuation techniques that are appropriate in the circumstances and for which sufficient data are available to measure fair value, maximizing the use of relevant observable inputs and minimizing the use of unobservable inputs. The valuation technique used for the Interest Rate Swaps is the discounted cash flow. The Company has not designated these interest rate swaps for hedge accounting.
| -5- |
The fair value of the Interest Rate Swaps is classified under “Fair value of derivative financial instruments” either under assets or liabilities in the consolidated statement of financial position. In the event that the respective asset or liability is expected to be materialized within the next twelve months, it is classified as current asset or liability. Otherwise, the respective asset or liability is classified as non-current asset or liability.
The change in fair value deriving from the valuation of the Interest Rate Swap at the end of each reporting period is classified under “Gain/ (Loss) on derivative financial instruments” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income/(loss). Realized gains or losses resulting from interest rate swaps are recognized in profit or loss under “Gain/(Loss) on derivative financial instruments” in the consolidated statement of comprehensive income/(loss).

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent and should not be considered as an alternative to total comprehensive income/(loss) or cash generated from operations, as determined by IFRS, and our calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to that reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is not a recognized measure under IFRS.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA is included herein because it is a basis upon which we assess our financial performance and because we believe that it presents useful information to investors regarding a company’s ability to service and/or incur indebtedness and it is frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider it in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under IFRS. Some of these limitations are:
| -7- |
» EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
» EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments on our debt;
» EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in or cash requirements for our working capital needs; and
» other companies in our industry may calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA differently than we do, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.
Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered a measure of discretionary cash available to us to invest in the growth of our business.

The number of common shares reserved for issuance under the Plan is 2,000,000 shares. No shares have been issued under the plan.
First half of the year 2024 compared to the first half of the year 2023
Total comprehensive income for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 amounted to $2.9 million or $0.14 basic and diluted income per share based on 20,582,301 weighted average number of shares, compared to total comprehensive income of $1.4 million for the same period last year or $0.07 basic and diluted income per share based on 20,582,301 weighted average number of shares.
The following table corresponds to the breakdown of the factors that led to the decrease in total comprehensive income during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 (expressed in $000’s):

| Net income and total comprehensive income for the 1st half of 2023 | 1,425 |
| Increase in Voyage revenues | 814 |
| Increase in Management & consulting fee income | 1 |
| Decrease in Voyage expenses | 2,705 |
| Decrease in Vessels operating expenses | 2,501 |
| Increase in Depreciation | (123) |
| Decrease in Depreciation of dry-docking costs | 505 |
| Increase in Total administrative expenses | (2,268) |
| Decrease in Reversal of Impairment | (2,509) |
| Decrease in Gain from sale of vessel | (71) |
| Increase in Other expenses, net | (27) |
| Increase in Interest income | 511 |
| Increase in Interest expense and finance costs | (643) |
| Increase in Gain on derivative financial instruments | 60 |
| Decrease in Foreign exchange losses | 99 |
| Net income and total comprehensive income for the 1st half of 2024 | 2,980 |
Voyage revenues
During the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, our Voyage revenues reached $17 million and $16.2 million, respectively. The 5% increase in Voyage revenues was mainly attributed to the increase in the average time charter rates achieved by our vessels during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to the same period in 2023. Daily Time Charter Equivalent rate (TCE) for the six-month period of 2024 was $13,246 per vessel per day against $8,518 per vessel per day during the same period in 2023, corresponding to an increase of 56%, which is attributed to the better conditions throughout the bulk market for the first half of 2024. The Company operated a fleet of an average of 6.9 vessels during the 1st half of 2024 compared to an average of 8.9 vessels for the same period in 2023.
Voyage expenses
Voyage expenses reached $0.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to $3.2 million during the same period last year, mainly due to the decrease of ballast days from 189 days for the fleet during the first six months of 2023 to only 17 days for the same period in 2024 which subsequently led to substantially decreased bunkers expenses. Voyage expenses include commissions on revenues, port and other voyage expenses and bunker expenses. Bunker expenses mainly refer to the cost of bunkers consumed during periods that our vessels are travelling seeking employment. Voyage expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, are analyzed as follows:
| In $000’s | 2024 | 2023 | ||
| Commissions | 220 | 209 | ||
| Bunkers | 137 | 2,685 | ||
| Other voyage expenses | 133 | 301 | ||
| Total | 490 | 3,195 |
| -11- |
Vessel operating expenses
Vessel operating expenses, which include crew costs, provisions, deck and engine stores, lubricating oils, insurance, maintenance, and repairs, reached $6.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to $8.9 million during the same period last year. This is mainly attributed to the fact that the Company operated a fleet of an average of 6.9 vessels during the 1st half of 2024 compared to an average of 8.9 vessels for the same period in 2023. The breakdown of our operating expenses for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 was as follows:
| 2024 | 2023 | |||
| Crew expenses | 59% | 52% | ||
| Repairs and spares | 11% | 16% | ||
| Insurance | 8% | 7% | ||
| Stores | 13% | 16% | ||
| Lubricants | 5% | 6% | ||
| Other | 4% | 3% |
Average daily operating expenses during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were $5,082 per vessel per day and $5,522 per vessel per day respectively, corresponding to a decrease of 8%, which is mainly attributed to the decrease in the cost of repairs and spares.
Depreciation
Depreciation charge during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, reached $2.6 million compared to $2.5 million during the same period in 2023. The increase is mainly attributed to the addition to the fleet of m/v GLBS Hero in January 2024 with a total cost of approximately $37.5 million. The increase is partly counterbalanced due to the decrease of the fleet of the Company from an average of 8.9 vessels during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to 6.9 vessels for the same period in 2024 and the increase of the scrap rate in our books from $440/ton to $480/ton during the fourth quarter of 2023, due to the increased scrap rates worldwide.
Total administrative expenses
Total administrative expenses, including administrative expenses to related parties, increased to $4.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 compared to $2.1 million for the same period in 2023. The increase is mainly attributed to the accrual of approximately $2.0 million as at June 30, 2024, which relate to the $3 million bonus that was awarded on March 13, 2024 to a consultant affiliated with our chief executive officer, half of which is payable immediately upon the delivery of the newbuilding vessel Hull NE442 (i.e., the vessel being constructed by Nantong Cosco Khi Ship Engineering pursuant to the agreement dated May 13, 2022) and the balance at the delivery of Hull NE443 (i.e., the vessel being constructed by Nantong Cosco Khi Ship Engineering pursuant to the other agreement dated May 13, 2022), in each case assuming Athanasios Feidakis remains Chief Executive Officer at each such relevant time.
Reversal of Impairment
On March 6, 2023, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an agreement to sell the 2007-built Sun Globe for a gross price of $14.1 million, before commissions, to an unaffiliated third party, which sale was subject to standard closing conditions.
Following the agreement to sell Sun Globe and given the significant increase in the vessel’s market value, the Company assessed that there were indications that impairment losses recognized in the previous periods with respect to this vessel have decreased. Therefore, the carrying amount of the vessel was increased to its recoverable amount, determined based on selling price less cost to sell, and the Company recorded reversal of impairment amounting $4,400.
On May 28, 2024, the Company, through a wholly owned subsidiary, entered into an agreement to sell the 2005-built Moon Globe for a gross price of $11.5 million, before commissions, to an unaffiliated third party, which sale was subject to standard closing conditions.
Following the agreement to sell Moon Globe and given the significant increase in the vessel’s market value, the Company assessed that there were indications that impairment losses recognized in the previous periods with respect to this vessel have decreased. Therefore, the carrying amount of the vessel was increased to its recoverable amount, determined based on selling price less cost to sell, and the Company recorded reversal of impairment amounting $1,891.
Interest expense and finance costs
Interest expense and finance costs reached $2.5 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024, compared to $1.9 million in the same period of 2023. Interest expense and finance costs for the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, are analyzed as follows:
| In $000’s | 2024 | 2023 | ||
| Interest payable on long-term borrowings | 2,247 | 1,703 | ||
| Bank charges | 26 | 24 | ||
| Operating lease liability interest | 5 | 17 | ||
| Amortization of debt discount | 140 | 134 | ||
Amortization of gain of Loan modification |
91 | – | ||
| Other finance expenses | 14 | 2 | ||
| Total | 2,523 | 1,880 |
As at June 30, 2024, and 2023 we and our vessel-owning subsidiaries had outstanding borrowings under our Loan and Sale and Leaseback agreements of an aggregate of $72.73 million and $37.45 million, respectively, gross of unamortized debt discount. The increase in interest payable is mainly attributed to the increase of the outstanding balance the Loan agreements. The weighted average interest rate has decreased from 8.15% during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to 8.09% for the same period in 2024, which is mainly attributed to the lower margin of the new loan agreement with Marguerite Maritime S.A.
| -12- |
Gain on derivative financial instruments
For the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized a gain of approximately $0.5 million, net of interest for the period, according to the Interest Rate Swap valuations and is included in the condensed consolidated statement of comprehensive income.
Liquidity and capital resources
As at June 30, 2024, and December 31, 2023, our cash and bank balances and bank deposits (including restricted cash) were $74.4 and $77.8 million, respectively.
As at June 30, 2024, the Company reported a working capital surplus of $76.0 million including effect from assets reclassified as held for sale and was in compliance with the covenants included in the CIT loan facility and the loan facility with Marguerite Maritime S.A.
The Company performs on a regular basis an assessment to evaluate its ability to continue as a going concern.
In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. The degree of consideration depends on the facts in each case and depends on the Company’s profitability and ready access to financial resources, In certain cases, management may need to consider a wide range of factors relating to current and expected profitability, debt repayment schedules, compliance with the financial and security collateral cover ratio covenants under its existing debt agreements and potential sources of replacement financing before it can satisfy itself that the going concern basis is appropriate. The Company may need to develop detailed cash flow projections as part of its assessment in such cases. In developing estimates of future cash flows, the Company makes assumptions about the vessels’ future performance, with the significant assumptions relating to time charter equivalent rates, vessels’ operating expenses, vessels’ capital expenditures, fleet utilization, Company’s general and administrative expenses and cash flow requirements for debt servicing. The assumptions used to develop estimates of future cash flows are based on historical trends as well as future expectations.
The above conditions indicate that the Company is expected to be able to operate as a going concern and these unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements were prepared under this assumption.
Net cash generated from operating activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 was $7.7 million compared to net cash used in operating activities of $4.2 million during the respective period in 2023. The increase in our cash generated from operating activities was mainly attributed to the increase in our Income for the period from $1.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to $3.0 million during the six-month period under consideration and the decrease of the Payment of deferred dry docking costs from $6.4 million during the six-month period ended June 30, 2023 to $0.5 million during the six-month period under consideration.
Net cash used in investing activities for the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 was $29.2 million compared to net cash generated from investing activities of $10.7 million during the respective period in 2023. The increase in our cash used in investing activities was mainly attributed to the payment of the last instalment amounting to $18.5 million for acquisition of the newbuilding vessel “m/v GLBS Hero” in January 2024 and the instalments for the new building vessels paid in the first half of 2024, amounting to $10.4 million.
Respectively, the amount generated from investing activities for the first half of 2023 is mainly attributed to the cash of $13.7 million received from the sale of m/v Sun Globe during the second quarter of 2023, partially offset by instalments for a new building paid in March 2023, amounting to $3.8 million.
Net cash generated from/(used in) financing activities during the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 were as follows:
| Six months ended June 30, | ||||
| In $000’s | 2024 | 2023 | ||
| (Unaudited) | ||||
| Proceeds from loans | 25,800 | – | ||

| Payment of financing costs | (377) | – | ||
| Repayment of lease liability | (170) | (158) | ||
| Interest paid | (1,493) | (981) | ||
| Net cash generated from/(used in) financing activities | 18,080 | (6,080) | ||
As at June 30, 2024 and 2023, we and our vessel-owning subsidiaries had outstanding borrowings under our Loan and Sale and Leaseback agreements of an aggregate of $72.73 and $37.45 million, respectively, gross of unamortized debt discount.

1. Basis of presentation and general information (continued)
The unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements presented in this report do not include all the information and disclosures required in the annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements as at December 31, 2023 and for the year then ended included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 20-F for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Annual Report”).

Going Concern basis of accounting:
The Company performs on a regular basis an assessment to evaluate its ability to continue as a going concern.
In assessing whether the going concern assumption is appropriate, management takes into account all available information about the future, which is at least, but is not limited to, twelve months from the end of the reporting period. The degree of consideration depends on the facts in each case and depends on the Company’s profitability and ready access to financial resources, In certain cases, management may need to consider a wide range of factors relating to current and expected profitability, debt repayment schedules, compliance with the financial and security collateral cover ratio covenants under its existing debt agreements and potential sources of replacement financing before it can satisfy itself that the going concern basis is appropriate.

The assumptions used to develop estimates of future cash flows are based on historical trends as well as future expectations.
As
at June 30, 2024, the Company reported a total comprehensive income of $
The above conditions indicate that the Company is expected to be able to operate as a going concern and these consolidated financial statements were prepared under this assumption.
2. Changes in Accounting policies and Recent accounting pronouncements
The accounting policies adopted in the preparation of the interim condensed consolidated financial statements are consistent with those followed in the preparation of the Company’s annual consolidated financial statements for the year ended 31 December 2023, as included in Note 2 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the 2023 Annual Report. There have been no changes to the Company’s accounting policies and recent accounting pronouncements in the six-month period ended June 30, 2024 other than the IFRS amendments which have been adopted by the Company as of 1 January 2024 and accounting policy for the Sale and leaseback transactions as indicated below:
| · | Amendments to IAS 7 Statement of Cash Flows and IFRS 7 Financial Instruments: Disclosures: Supplier Finance Arrangements. The amendments introduce supplemental disclosure requirements for the entities’ supplier finance arrangements |
| · | IAS 1 Presentation of Financial Statements: Classification of Liabilities as Current or Non-current (Amendments). The amendments clarify the principles in IAS 1 for the classification of liabilities as either current or non-current. |
| · | IFRS 16 Leases: Lease Liability in a Sale and Leaseback (amendments). The amendments improve the requirements that a seller-lessee uses in measuring the lease liability arising in a sale and leaseback transaction in IFRS 16, while it does not change the accounting for leases unrelated to sale and leaseback transactions |
The newly adopted amendments did not have a material impact on the Company’s accounting policies.
Below the recent accounting pronouncements issued, but not yet effective and not early adopted by the Company:
| · | IFRS 18 Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements. On April 2024, the IASB issued the IFRS 18 - Presentation and Disclosure in Financial Statements which replaces IAS 1 - Presentation of Financial Statements and it becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027. |

| GLOBUS MARITIME LIMITED NOTES TO THE UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 2024 (Amounts presented in thousands of U.S. Dollars - except for share and warrants data, unless otherwise stated) |
2. Changes in Accounting policies and Recent accounting pronouncements (continued)
| · | Amendment in IFRS 10 Consolidated Financial Statements and IAS 28 Investments in Associates and Joint Ventures: Sale or Contribution of Assets between an Investor and its Associate or Joint Venture. In December 2015 the IASB postponed the effective date of this amendment indefinitely pending the outcome of its research project on the equity method of accounting. |
| · | IAS 21 The Effects of Changes in Foreign Exchange Rates: Lack of Exchangeability (Amendments). The amendments are effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2025, with earlier application permitted. The amendments will require companies to apply a consistent approach in assessing whether a currency can be exchanged into another currency and, when it cannot, in determining the exchange rate to use and the disclosures to provide. |
| · | IFRS 19 Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures. On May 2024, the IASB issued the IFRS 19 - Subsidiaries without Public Accountability: Disclosures, and becomes effective for annual reporting periods beginning on or after January 1, 2027 |
The Company has not early adopted the above amendments and is in process of assessing the potential impact on the financial statements.
Sale and leaseback transactions
When a vessel is sold and subsequently leased back by the Company, pursuant to a memorandum of agreement (MoA) and a bareboat charter agreement, the Company determines when a performance obligation is satisfied in IFRS 15, to determine whether the transfer of a vessel is accounted for as a sale. If the transfer of a vessel satisfies the requirements of IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale, the Company measures the right-of- use asset arising from the leaseback at the proportion of the previous carrying amount of the asset that relates to the right of use retained and recognizes only the amount of any gain or loss that relates to the rights transferred to the buyer-lessor. If the transfer of a vessel does not satisfy the requirements of IFRS 15 to be accounted for as a sale, the Company continues to recognize the transferred vessel and recognizes a financial liability equal to the transferred proceeds. Please refer to Note 8(c), for the description of the nature of the sale and leaseback arrangement the Company entered into in the six months period ended June 30, 2024.
Reporting Assets held for sale
It is the Company’s policy to dispose of vessels when suitable opportunities occur and not necessarily to keep them until the end of their useful life. Non – current assets are classified as held for sale when all applicable criteria enumerated under IFRS 5 are met and are measured at the lower of their carrying amount or fair value less cost to sell. These assets are not depreciated once they meet the criteria to be held for sale and are presented separately in the statement of financial position.

As at June 30, 2024, the Company had Class B common shares and Series B Preferred Shares outstanding.
Share premium includes the contribution of Globus’ shareholders for the acquisition of the Company’s vessels. Additionally, share premium includes the effects of the acquisition of non-controlling interest, the effects of the Globus initial and follow-on public offerings and the effects of the share-based payments. At June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, Globus share premium amounted to $.
As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, the Company had issued common shares pursuant to exercise of outstanding Class A Warrants as defined in the 2023 Annual Report and had Class A Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no PP Warrants, as defined in the 2023 Annual Report , had been exercised and the Company had PP Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no December 2020 Warrants, as defined in the 2023 Annual Report , had been exercised and the Company had December 2020 Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no January 2021 Warrants, as defined in the 2023 Annual Report , had been exercised and the Company had January 2021 Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no February 2021 Warrants, as defined in the 2023 Annual Report , had been exercised and the Company had February 2021 Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
As at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, no June 2021 Warrants, as defined in the 2023 Annual Report , had been exercised and the Company had June 2021 Warrants outstanding to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
The Company’s warrants are classified in equity, following the Company’s assessment that warrants meet the equity classification criteria as per IAS 32. The total outstanding number of warrants as at June 30, 2024, was to purchase an aggregate of common shares.
On March 13, 2024, the Board of Directors adopted the Globus Maritime Limited 2024 Equity Incentive Plan, or the Plan. The purpose of the Plan is to provide Company’s officers, key employees, directors, consultants and service provider, whose initiative and efforts are deemed to be important to the successful conduct of Company’s business, with incentives to (a) enter into and remain in the service of the Company or affiliates, (b) acquire a proprietary interest in the success of the Company, (c) maximize their performance and (d) enhance the long-term performance of the Company. .
As at June 30, 2024, the Company had common shares issued under the Plan.
Basic earnings / (loss) per share (“EPS” / “LPS”) is calculated by dividing the net income / (loss) for the period attributable to Globus common shareholders by the weighted average number of common shares issued, paid and outstanding.
Diluted earnings per share is calculated by dividing the net income / (loss) attributable to common equity holders of the parent by the weighted average shares outstanding during the period plus the weighted average number of common shares that would be issued on the conversion of all the dilutive potential common shares into common shares. The incremental shares (the difference between the number of shares assumed issued and the number of shares assumed purchased) are included in the denominator of the diluted earnings/(losses) per share computation unless such inclusion would be anti-dilutive.
As for the three-month ended June 30, 2024, the securities that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future are any incremental shares of unexercised warrants (Note 6). As the warrants were out-of-the money during the three-month period ended June 30, 2024, these were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, because to do so would have anti-dilutive effect. As the Company reported losses for the three-month ended June 30, 2023, the effect of any incremental shares would be antidilutive and thus excluded from the computation of the LPS.

7. Earnings/(Loss) per Share (continued)
As for the six-month ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, the securities that could potentially dilute basic EPS in the future are any incremental shares of unexercised warrants (Note 6). As the warrants were out-of-the money during the six-month periods ended June 30, 2024 and 2023, these were not included in the computation of diluted EPS, because to do so would have anti-dilutive effect.

9. Contigencies
Various claims, suits and complaints, including those involving government regulations, arise in the ordinary course of the shipping business. In addition, losses may arise from disputes with charterers, environmental claims, agents, and insurers and from 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 are material for disclosure.
10. Commitments
Voyage revenue
The Company enters into time charter arrangements on its vessels. These non-cancellable arrangements had remaining terms between one day to approximately eleven months as at June 30, 2024, assuming redelivery at the earliest possible date. As at December 31, 2023, the non-cancellable arrangements had remaining terms between nil days to eight months, assuming redelivery at the earliest possible date. Future net minimum revenues receivable under non-cancellable operating leases as at June 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, were as follows (vessel off-hires and dry-docking days that could occur but are not currently known are not taken into consideration; in addition early delivery of the vessels by the charterers is not accounted for):

10. Commitments (continued)
For
time charters that qualify as leases, the Company is required to disclose lease and non-lease components of lease revenue. The revenue
earned under time charters is not negotiated in its two separate components, but as a whole. For purposes of determining the standalone
selling price of the vessel lease and technical management service components of the Company’s time charters, the Company concluded
that the residual approach would be the most appropriate method to use given that vessel lease rates are highly variable depending on
shipping market conditions, the duration of such charters and the age of the vessel. The Company believes that the standalone transaction
price attributable to the technical management service component, including crewing services, is more readily determinable than the price
of the lease component and, accordingly, the price of the service component is estimated using data provided by its technical department,
which consist of the crew expenses, maintenance and consumable costs and was approximately $
