Pangaea Logistics Solutions Ltd. Reports Record Financial Results for the Quarter Ended June 30, 2022
NEWPORT, RI - August 9, 2022 - Pangaea Logistics Solutions Ltd. (“Pangaea” or the “Company”) (NASDAQ: PANL), a global provider of comprehensive maritime logistics solutions, announced today its results for the three months ended June 30, 2022.
SECOND QUARTER 2022 RESULTS
(As compared to the Second Quarter 2021)

•Total revenue increased 34% year over year to $195.5 million; voyage revenue increased 48% year over year
•Net income attributable to Pangaea increased 30% year over year to $25.0 million, or $0.56 per diluted share
•Adjusted EBITDA increased 107% year over year to $44.2 million
•Operating cash flow increased 155% year over year to $37.2 million
•TCE rates earned by Pangaea increased 29% year over year to $27,139 per day
•Cash and equivalents increased 152% year over year to $102.2 million

For the second quarter ended June 30, 2022, Pangaea reported net income of $25.0 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, on total revenue of $195.5 million. Second quarter revenue increased by more than 34% on a year-over-year basis, due mainly to a 29% increase in daily Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rates. Total shipping days, which include both voyage and time charter days, remained essentially flat at 4,703 in the second quarter 2022, versus 4,723 days in the prior-year period, including a 16% increase in voyage days. Vessel operating expenses, net of management fees per day, decreased 1% to $5,198 in the second quarter 2022, versus $5,254 in the prior-year period.

The TCE was $27,139 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to an average of $21,053 per day for the same period in 2021. During the second quarter 2022, the Company’s average TCE rate exceeded the benchmark average Baltic Panamax and Supramax indices by approximately 4%, as supported by Pangaea’s long-term contracts of affreightment ("COAs"), specialized fleet, and cargo-focused strategy.

As of June 30, 2022, the Company had $102.2 million in cash and equivalents and total debt, including lease finance obligations of $305 million. At the end of the second quarter 2022, the ratio of net debt to trailing twelve-month adjusted EBITDA was 1.4x. During the first half of 2022, the Company repaid $9.0 million of long-term debt and $7.8 million of finance leases and paid $5.6 million of cash dividends. The Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.075 per common share, to be paid on September 15, 2022, to all shareholders of record as of September 1, 2022.

STRATEGIC UPDATE

Pangaea remains committed to developing a leading dry bulk logistics and transportation services company of scale, providing its customers with specialized shipping and supply chain and logistics offerings in commodity and niche markets, which drive premium returns measured in time charter equivalent per day.

Leverage integrated shipping and logistics model. In addition to operating the largest high ice class dry bulk fleet globally, Pangaea also performs stevedoring services, together with port and terminal operations capabilities. During the second quarter, Pangaea’s ports and logistics group, along with joint venture partners, performed stevedoring, storage and transfer services in Sabine, Texas for a new customer transporting parts for solar arrays; provided stevedoring services for two vessels in the Mississippi River; and contracted for several voyages of cargo for a new customer served on the east coast of the U.S. The Company is also actively pursuing new stevedoring opportunities across multiple ports in Texas.

Continue to drive strong fleet utilization. Presently, Pangaea’s ten ice class 1A panamax and post-panamax vessels are fully deployed and trading in the Arctic under ten-year contracts that utilize approximately 35% of annual available days. This is the first year of full operation of all four post-panamax ships the Company built specifically for this service, which were delivered in 2021.

Continue to upgrade fleet, while divesting of older, non-core assets. In June 2022, Pangaea completed renewal of its bauxite shuttle fleet, selling the vessel Bulk Pangaea after taking delivery of the Bulk Concord in the first quarter of 2022. The ships making up this shuttle fleet of three vessels, which continuously serve an important customer’s industrial needs, are planned to fulfill the remaining ten years under the customer contract.




MANAGEMENT COMMENTARY



“Our strong second quarter results demonstrate continued execution on our long-term strategy, one that emphasizes profitable growth within niche, higher-margin dry bulk shipping and logistics markets,” stated Mark Filanowski, Chief Executive Officer of Pangaea Logistics Solutions. “We delivered strong year-over-year growth in both revenue and net income, while generating record second quarter adjusted EBITDA, driven by a significant year-over-year increase in TCE rates and strong fleet utilization.”

“At a macro level, global shipping capacity remains constrained, resulting in market rates that remain well above historical averages,” continued Filanowski. “We expect global capacity will be further restricted by upcoming IMO emissions requirements coming into effect in January 2023, which seek to reduce the carbon intensity of the shipping industry. For our part, the Pangaea fleet will be fully compliant ahead of the IMO 2023 mandate, positioning us to maintain a consistent level of performance during the transition. We are studying ways to make our ships even more efficient, opportunities that we expect could drive further improvements in profitability, over time.”

“Entering what is typically the seasonally strongest quarter of the year for our business, we remain well-positioned to capitalize on favorable market conditions,” noted Filanowski. “We will continue to provide both new and existing customers with an exceptional level of service during a period of global supply chain disruption, an approach that keeps our relationships healthy and growing. Our long-term contracting and short-term charter-in strategies have consistently generated profitability over the years. For the third quarter to date, we have booked 3,026 shipping days producing a time charter equivalent of $25,600/day.”

“We have a dedicated leadership team and employee base, both ashore and aboard, who drive our performance,” continued Filanowski. “Our ability to deploy capital in a prudent, yet opportunistic manner has been integral to our track record of value creation. In what remains a volatile market, we believe a balanced approach to capital deployment is appropriate, one that includes a consistent return of capital program, together with debt reduction and high-return organic growth investments, reflecting our continued confidence in the outlook for our business.”

INFORMATION ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES. As used herein, “GAAP” refers to accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. To supplement our consolidated financial statements prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP, this earnings release discusses non-GAAP financial measures, including non-GAAP net revenue and non-GAAP adjusted EBITDA. This is considered a non-GAAP financial measure as defined in Rule 101 of Regulation G promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission. Generally, a non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s historical or future performance, financial position, or cash flows that either excludes or includes amounts that are not normally excluded or included in the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. The presentation of this non-GAAP financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP.

We use non-GAAP financial measures for internal financial and operational decision making purposes and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons of the performance and results of operations of our core business. Our management believes that non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information regarding the performance of our core business by excluding charges that are not incurred in the normal course of business. Non-GAAP financial measures also facilitate management's internal planning and comparisons to our historical performance and liquidity. We believe certain non-GAAP financial measures are useful to investors as they allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making and are used by our institutional investors and the analyst community to help them analyze the performance and operational results of our core business.

Gross Profit. Gross profit represents total revenue less net transportation and service revenue and less vessel depreciation and amortization.

Net transportation and service revenue. Net transportation and service revenue represents total revenue less the total direct costs of transportation and services, which includes charter hire, voyage and vessel operating expenses. Net transportation and service revenue is included because it is used by management and certain investors to measure performance by comparison to other logistic service providers. Net transportation and service revenue is not an item recognized by the generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP, 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. Pangaea’s definition of net transportation and service revenue used here may not be comparable to an operating measure used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EPS. Adjusted EBITDA represents net income (or loss), determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP, excluding interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, loss on impairment, loss on sale and leaseback of vessels, share-based compensation and other non-operating income and/or expense, if any. Earnings per share represents net income divided by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Adjusted earnings per share represents net income attributable to Pangaea Logistics Solutions Ltd. plus, when applicable, loss on sale of vessel, loss on sale and leaseback of vessel, loss on impairment of vessel, unrealized gains and losses on derivative instruments, and certain non-recurring charges, divided by the weighted average number of shares of common stock.

There are limitations related to the use of net revenue versus income from operations, adjusted EBITDA versus income from operations, and adjusted EPS versus EPS calculated in accordance with GAAP. In particular, Pangaea’s definition of adjusted EBITDA used here are not comparable to EBITDA.

The table set forth above provides a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures presented during the period to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP.
