- EuroDry reported Q1 2026 net revenues of $12.8 million, up 38.9% year over year, with net income of $0.26 million and adjusted EBITDA of $4.9 million. Management said stronger charter rates and improved fleet utilization drove the better results.
- The company’s fleet performance improved materially, with 100% commercial utilization and 99.7% overall utilization in the quarter. Average TCE rose to $14,416/day versus $7,167/day a year earlier, and the company said rates remain above its cash breakeven level.
- EuroDry expanded its newbuilding program by ordering two 82,000 dwt Kamsarmax vessels for about $74 million, alongside two Ultramaxes already on order. The company said financing will likely be a mix of debt and equity, with delivery expected in Q1-Q2 2028.
- Management said the dry bulk market has started 2026 stronger than expected, with spot and one-year charter rates improving and market fundamentals supported by healthy trade flows. They also noted a low global order book and limited fleet growth could support freight rates over the medium term.
- The company continues to balance share repurchases and fleet investment, having bought back 348,000 shares for $5.6 million under its program. Management also said some older Panamax vessels could become sale candidates later if secondhand prices stay elevated, but no decision has been made yet.
