The Company provides technical services for drybulk vessels purchased by Maritime Equity Partners LLC (“MEP”), which is managed by a company owned by Peter C. Georgiopoulos, Chairman of the Board of Directors of GS&T.  These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services.  The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs and will be provided for an initial term of one year.  MEP has the right to cancel provision of services on 60 days’ notice with payment of a one-year termination fee upon a change in control of the Company.  The Company may terminate provision of the services at any time on 60 days’ notice.  Peter C. Georgiopoulos, the Company’s Chairman of the Board, is a minority investor in MEP, and affiliates of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., of which Stephen A. Kaplan, a director of the Company, is a principal, are majority investors in MEP.

 

On February 28, 2012, the Company closed on an equity offering of 7,500,000 shares of common stock at an offering price of $7.10 per share.  The Company received net proceeds of $49,874 after deducting underwriters’ fees and expenses.

 

2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

Principles of consolidation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”), which include the accounts of GS&T, its wholly-owned subsidiaries and Baltic Trading, a subsidiary in which the Company owns a majority of the voting interests and exercises control.  All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

Table of Contents

 

Basis of presentation

 

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for interim financial information and the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”).  In the opinion of management of the Company, all adjustments, consisting of normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of financial position and operating results have been included in the statements. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP have been condensed or omitted.  These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 (the “2011 10-K”).  The results of operations for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full year.

 

Vessels, net

 

Vessels, net is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Included in vessel costs are acquisition costs directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage. The Company also capitalizes interest costs for a vessel under construction as a cost which is directly attributable to the acquisition of a vessel. Vessels are depreciated on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, determined to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard. Depreciation expense for vessels for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $33,094 and $32,295, respectively.  Depreciation expense for vessels for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $66,185 and $63,719, respectively.

 

Depreciation expense is calculated based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value. The costs of significant replacements, renewals and betterments are capitalized and depreciated over the shorter of the vessel’s remaining estimated useful life or the estimated life of the renewal or betterment. Undepreciated cost of any asset component being replaced that was acquired after the initial vessel purchase is written off as a component of vessel operating expense. Expenditures for routine maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Scrap value is estimated by the Company by taking the estimated scrap value of $245/lwt multiplied by the weight of the ship in lightweight tons (lwt).

 

Deferred revenue

 

Deferred revenue primarily relates to cash received from charterers prior to it being earned. These amounts are recognized as revenue when earned. Additionally, deferred revenue includes estimated customer claims mainly due to time charter performance issues. As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company had an accrual of $542 and $762, respectively, related to these estimated customer claims.

 

Voyage expense recognition

 

In time charters, spot market-related time charters and pool agreements, operating costs including crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel and specified voyage costs such as fuel and port charges are paid by the charterer. There are certain other non-specified voyage expenses such as commissions which are typically borne by the Company. At the inception of a time charter, the Company records the difference between the cost of bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as a gain or loss within voyage expenses. These differences in bunkers resulted in net gains of $704 and $1,294 during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively, and $1,424 and $1,653 during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

Noncontrolling interest

 

Net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 reflects the noncontrolling interest’s share of the net loss of Baltic Trading, a subsidiary of the Company, which owns and employs drybulk vessels in the spot market or on spot market-related time charters.  The spot market represents immediate chartering of a vessel, usually for single voyages.  At June 30, 2012 the noncontrolling interest held a 74.91% economic interest in Baltic Trading while only holding 16.60% of voting power.  At December 31, 2011, the noncontrolling interest held a 74.89% economic interest in Baltic Trading while only holding 16.59% of voting power.

 

Income taxes

 

Pursuant to certain agreements, GS&T technically and commercially manages vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provides technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided.  These services are performed by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes.  As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services.  Genco (USA) has entered into a cost-sharing agreement with the Company and Genco Ship Management LLC, collectively Manco, pursuant to which Genco (USA) agrees to reimburse Manco for the costs incurred by

 

11



Table of Contents

 

Genco (USA) for the use of Manco’s personnel and services in connection with the provision of the services for both Baltic Trading and MEP’s vessels.

 

Total revenue earned for these services during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $1,530 and $1,562, respectively, of which $711 and $743, respectively, eliminated upon consolidation.  After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $728 associated with these activities for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  This resulted in estimated tax expense of $328 for the three months ended June 30, 2012.  After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $749 associated with these activities for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  This resulted in income tax expense of $327 for the three months ended June 30, 2011.

 

Total revenue earned for these services during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $3,045 and $3,101, respectively, of which $1,407 and $1,472, respectively, eliminated upon consolidation.  After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $1,321 associated with these activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  This resulted in estimated tax expense of $593 for the six months ended June 30, 2012.  After allocation of certain expenses, there was taxable income of $1,446 associated with these activities for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  This resulted in income tax expense of $691 for the six months ended June 30, 2011.

 

Baltic Trading is subject to income tax on its United States source income.  During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, Baltic Trading had United States operations which resulted in United States source income of $755 and $1,394, respectively.  Baltic Trading’s United States income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $15 and $28, respectively.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, Baltic Trading had United States operations which resulted in United States source income of $1,121 and $2,457, respectively.  Baltic Trading’s United States income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $22 and $23, respectively.

 

Recent accounting pronouncements

 

In May 2011, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-04, “Amendments to Achieve Common Fair Value Measurement and Disclosure Requirements in U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards (Topic 820) — Fair Value Measurement” (“ASU 2011-04”), to provide a consistent definition of fair value and ensure that the fair value measurement and disclosure requirements are similar between U.S. GAAP and International Financial Reporting Standards.  ASU 2011-04 changes certain fair value measurement principles and enhances the disclosure requirements particularly for Level 3 fair value measurements.  This standard was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and is applied on a prospective basis.  The Company has adopted ASU 2011-04 and the impact of adoption is not material to the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements.

 

In June 2011, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2011-05, “Comprehensive Income (Topic 220), Presentation of Comprehensive Income” (“ASU 2011-05”), to require an entity to present the total of comprehensive income, the components of net income and the components of other comprehensive income either in a single continuous statement of comprehensive income or in two separate but consecutive statements.  ASU 2011-05 eliminates the option to present the components of other comprehensive income as part of the statement of equity.  The standard does not change the items which must be reported for other comprehensive income, how such items are measured or when they must be reclassified to net income.  This standard was effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2011 and was to be applied retrospectively.  The FASB has deferred the requirement to present reclassification adjustments for each component of accumulate other comprehensive income in both net income and other comprehensive income.  Companies are required to either present amounts reclassified out of other comprehensive income on the face of the financial statements or disclose those amounts in the notes to the financial statements.  During the deferral period, there is no requirement to separately present or disclose the reclassification adjustments into net income.  The effective date of this deferral will be consistent with the effective date of ASU 2011-05.  The Company has adopted ASU 2011-05 and disclosed comprehensive income in our condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive (loss) income. This guidance only affects financial statement presentation and has no impact on the Company’s consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows.

 

3 - SEGMENT INFORMATION

 

The Company determines its operating segments based on the information utilized by the chief operating decision maker to assess performance.  Based on this information, the Company has two operating segments, GS&T and Baltic Trading.  Both GS&T and Baltic Trading are engaged in the ocean transportation of drybulk cargoes worldwide through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels.  GS&T seeks to deploy its vessels on time charters, spot market-related time charters or in vessel pools trading in the spot market and Baltic Trading seeks to deploy its vessel charters in the spot market, which represents immediate chartering of a vessel, usually for single voyages, or employing vessels on spot market-related time charters.  Segment results are evaluated based on

6 - INVESTMENTS

 

The Company holds an investment in the capital stock of Jinhui Shipping and Transportation Limited (“Jinhui”).  Jinhui is a drybulk shipping owner and operator focused on the Supramax segment of drybulk shipping.  This investment is designated as Available For Sale (“AFS”) and is reported at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses recorded in shareholders’ equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”).  At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company held 16,335,100 shares of Jinhui capital stock which is recorded at its fair value of $27,386 and $24,468, respectively, based on the closing price on June 29, 2012 and December 30, 2011, respectively.

Refer to Note 12 — Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss for a breakdown of the components of AOCI.

 

7 — NET (LOSS) INCOME PER COMMON SHARE

 

The computation of basic net (loss) income per share is based on the weighted-average number of common shares outstanding during the year. The computation of diluted net loss (income) per share assumes the vesting of nonvested stock awards (refer to Note 20 — Nonvested Stock Awards), for which the assumed proceeds upon vesting are deemed to be the amount of compensation cost attributable to future services and are not yet recognized using the treasury stock method, to the extent dilutive.  Of the 936,787 nonvested shares outstanding at June 30, 2012 (refer to Note 20 — Nonvested Stock Awards), all are anti-dilutive.  The Company’s diluted net (loss) income per share will also reflect the assumed conversion under the Company’s convertible debt if the impact is dilutive under the “if converted” method. The impact of the shares convertible under the Company’s convertible notes is excluded from the computation of diluted net (loss) income per share when interest expense per common share obtainable upon conversion is greater than basic earnings per share.

 

The components of the denominator for the calculation of basic net (loss) income per share and diluted net (loss) income per share are as follows:

(1)         On August 1, 2012, the Company has entered into agreements to amend or waive certain provisions of the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility.  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt for further information.  These agreements will result in an increase in the applicable margin over LIBOR from 2.0% to 3.0% for the 2007 Credit Facility only which would not result in a significant effect on the fair value of our floating rate debt as of June 30, 2012.

 

The fair value of the floating rate debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility are based on management’s estimate of rates the Company could obtain for similar debt of the same remaining maturities.  Additionally, the Company considers its creditworthiness in determining the fair value of floating rate debt under the credit facilities.  The carrying value approximates the fair market value for these floating rate loans.  The fair value of the convertible senior notes payable represents the market value based on recent transactions of the 2010 Notes at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 without bifurcating the value of the conversion option.  The fair value of the interest rate swaps is the estimated amount the Company would receive to terminate the swap agreements at the reporting date, taking into account current interest rates and the creditworthiness of both the swap counterparty and the Company.  The carrying amounts of the Company’s other financial instruments at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 (principally Due from charterers and Accounts payable and accrued expenses), approximate fair values because of the relatively short maturity of these instruments.

 

Accounting Standards Codification Subtopic 820-10, “Fair Value Measurements & Disclosures” (“ASC 820-10”), applies to all assets and liabilities that are being measured and reported on a fair value basis.  This guidance enables the reader of the financial statements to assess the inputs used to develop those measurements by establishing a hierarchy for ranking the quality and reliability of the information used to determine fair values. The fair value framework requires the categorization of assets and liabilities into three levels based upon the assumption (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:

 

Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

Level 2: Observable inputs other than those include in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.

 

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the fair values of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities are categorized as follows:

The Company holds an investment in the capital stock of Jinhui, which is classified as a long-term investment.  The stock of Jinhui is publicly traded on the Oslo Stock Exchange and is considered a Level 1 item.  The Company’s interest rate derivative instruments are pay-fixed, receive-variable interest rate swaps based on LIBOR.  The Company has elected to use the income approach to value the derivatives, using observable Level 2 market inputs at measurement date and standard valuation techniques to convert future amounts to a single present amount assuming that participants are motivated, but not compelled to transact.  Level 2 inputs for the valuations are limited to quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets (specifically futures contracts on LIBOR for the first two years) and inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability (specifically LIBOR cash and swap rates and credit risk at commonly quoted intervals).  Mid-market pricing is used as a practical expedient for fair value measurements.  Refer to Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements for further information regarding the Company’s interest rate swap agreements.  ASC 820-10 states that the fair value measurement of an asset or liability must reflect the nonperformance risk of the entity and the counterparty. Therefore, the impact of the counterparty’s creditworthiness when in an asset position and the Company’s creditworthiness when in a liability position has also been factored into the fair value measurement of the derivative instruments in an asset or liability position and did not have a material impact on the fair value of these derivative instruments.  As of June 30, 2012, both the counterparty and the Company are expected to continue to perform under the contractual terms of the instruments. Cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are considered Level 1 items as they represent liquid assets with short-term maturities. Floating rate debt is considered to be a Level 2 item as the Company considers the estimate of rates it could obtain for similar debt. The 2010 Notes are publicly traded in the over-the-counter market; however they are not considered to be actively traded. As such, the 2010 Notes are considered to be a Level 2 item.

Total voyage revenue earned on time charters, including revenue earned in vessel pools and spot market-related time charters, for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $62,112 and $98,511, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $121,137 and $199,130, respectively.  Included in revenues for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was profit sharing revenue of $0 and $29, respectively.  Additionally, included in revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was profit sharing revenue of $0 and $122, respectively.  Future minimum time charter revenue, based on vessels committed to noncancelable time charter contracts as of July 27, 2012 is expected to be $23,933 for the remainder of 2012, $7,847 during 2013 and $3,020 during 2014, assuming off-hire due to any scheduled drydocking and that no additional off-hire time is incurred.  For most drydockings, the Company assumes twenty days of offhire.  Future minimum revenue excludes revenue earned for the five vessels currently in pool arrangements, vessels that are currently on or will be on spot market-related time charters, as spot rates cannot be estimated, as well as profit sharing revenue.

 

19 - COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

 

In September 2005, the Company entered into a 15-year lease for office space in New York, New York for which there was a free rental period from September 1, 2005 to July 31, 2006.  On January 6, 2012, the Company ceased the use of this space and as such has recorded, during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012, net rent expense of $202 and $570, respectively, representing the present value of the Company’s estimated remaining rent expense for the duration of the lease after taking into account estimated future sublease income and deferred rent on the facility.  The current and long-term lease obligations related to this lease agreement are recorded in the condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2012 in Current portion of lease obligations and Long-term lease obligations, respectively.  Rent expense under this lease for the three and six months ended June 30, 2011 was $117 and $233, respectively.

 

Future minimum rental payments on the above lease for the next five years and thereafter are as follows: $259 for the remainder of 2012, $518 annually for 2013 through 2015, $529 for 2016, and a total of $2,522 for the remaining term of the lease.

Effective April 4, 2011, the Company entered into a seven-year sub-sublease agreement for additional office space in New York, New York.  The term of the sub-sublease commenced June 1, 2011, with a free base rental period until October 31, 2011. Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $82 per month until May 31, 2015 and thereafter will be $90 per month until the end of the seven-year term.  Pursuant to the sub-sublease agreement, the sublessor is obligated to contribute $472 toward the cost of the Company’s alterations to the sub-subleased office space.  The Company has also entered into a direct lease with the over-landlord of such office space that will commence immediately upon the expiration of such sub-sublease agreement, for a term covering the period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2025; the direct lease provides for a free base rental period from May 1, 2018 to September 30, 2018.  Following the expiration of the free base rental period, the monthly base rental payments will be $186 per month from October 1, 2018 to April 30, 2023 and $204 per month from May 1, 2023 to September 30, 2025.  For accounting purposes, the sub-sublease agreement and direct lease agreement with the landlord constitutes one lease agreement.  As a result of the straight-line rent calculation generated by the free rent period and the tenant work credit, the monthly straight-line rental expense for the term of the entire lease from June 1, 2011 to September 30, 2025 will be $130.  The Company had a long-term lease obligation at June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011 of $1,505 and $1,217, respectively.  Rent expense pertaining to this new lease for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $390 and $130, respectively.  Rent expense pertaining to this new lease for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $779 and $130, respectively.

21 - SHARE REPURCHASE PROGRAM

 

Since the inception of its share repurchase program through June 30, 2012, the Company has repurchased and retired 278,300 shares of its common stock for $11,500. Currently, the terms of the 2007 Credit Facility require the Company to suspend all share repurchases until the Company can represent that it is in a position to again satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant.  No share repurchases were made during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

22 - LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

From time to time, the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.  The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company, its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

23 - SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

 

On July 26, 2012, Baltic Trading declared a dividend of $0.05 per share to be paid on or about August 22, 2012 to shareholders of record as of August 15, 2012.  The aggregate amount of the dividend is expected to be approximately $1.1 million, of which approximately $0.9 million will be paid to minority shareholders, which Baltic Trading anticipates will be funded from cash on hand at the time payment is to be made.

 

On August 1, 2012, the Company entered into agreements to amend or waive certain provisions of the 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility.  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt for a description of these amendments as well as the required debt prepayments that were made on August 1, 2012 pursuant to these amendments.

 

ITEM 2.                           MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

 

This report contains forward-looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such forward-looking statements use words such as “anticipate,” “estimate,” “expect,” “project,” “intend,” “plan,” “believe,” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with a discussion of potential future events, circumstances or future operating or financial performance.  These forward-looking statements are based on management’s current expectations and observations. Included among the factors that, in our view, could cause actual results to differ materially from the forward looking statements contained in this report are the following: (i) declines in demand or rates in the drybulk shipping industry; (ii) prolonged weakness in drybulk shipping rates; (iii) changes in the supply of or demand for drybulk products, generally or in particular regions; (iv) changes in the supply of drybulk carriers including newbuilding of vessels or lower than anticipated scrapping of older vessels; (v) changes in rules and regulations applicable to the cargo industry, including, without limitation, legislation adopted by international organizations or by individual countries and actions taken by regulatory authorities; (vi) increases in costs and expenses including but not limited to: crew wages, insurance, provisions, lube oil, bunkers, repairs, maintenance and general, administrative and management fee expenses; (vii) whether our insurance arrangements are adequate; (viii) changes in general domestic and international political conditions; (ix) acts of war, terrorism, or piracy; (x) changes in the condition of our vessels or applicable maintenance or regulatory standards (which may affect, among other things, our anticipated drydocking or maintenance and

repair costs) and unanticipated drydock expenditures; (xi) our acquisition or disposition of vessels;  (xii) the amount of offhire time needed to complete repairs on vessels and the timing and amount of any reimbursement by our insurance carriers for insurance claims, including offhire days; (xiii) the completion of definitive documentation with respect to charters; (xiv) charterers’ compliance with the terms of their charters in the current market environment; (xv) the fulfillment of post-closing actions required under our recent credit facility amendments, including effecting a second priority security interest in favor of lenders under our 2007 Credit Facility in vessels pledged under our other two credit facilities; and other factors listed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including, without limitation, our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011 and subsequent reports on Form 8-K and Form 10-Q.

 

The following management’s discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with our historical consolidated financial statements and the related notes included in this Form 10-Q.

 

General

 

We are a Marshall Islands company that transports iron ore, coal, grain, steel products and other drybulk cargoes along worldwide shipping routes through the ownership and operation of drybulk carrier vessels.  Excluding vessels of Baltic Trading Limited (“Baltic Trading”), as of August 9, 2012, our fleet consisted of nine Capesize, eight Panamax, 17 Supramax, six Handymax and 13 Handysize drybulk carriers, with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 3,810,000 dwt, and the average age of our fleet was approximately 7.3 years, as compared to the average age for the world fleet of approximately 11 years for the drybulk shipping segments in which we compete.  We seek to deploy our vessels on time charters, spot market-related time charters or in vessel pools trading in the spot market, to reputable charterers, including Cargill International S.A., Pacific Basin Chartering Ltd., Trafigura Beheer B.V., Swissmarine Services S.A., Klaveness Chartering and LB/IVS Pool, in which Lauritzen Bulkers A/S acts as the pool manager.  The majority of the vessels in our current fleet are presently engaged under time charter and spot market-related time charter contracts that expire (assuming the option periods in the time charters are not exercised) between August  2012 and May 2015.

 

In addition, as of August 9, 2012, Baltic Trading’s fleet consisted of two Capesize, four Supramax and three Handysize drybulk carriers with an aggregate carrying capacity of approximately 672,000 dwt.

 

See pages 33 - 37 for a table of all vessels that have been delivered to us, including Baltic Trading’s vessels.

 

Depending on market conditions, we intend to acquire additional modern, high-quality drybulk carriers through timely and selective acquisitions of vessels in a manner that is accretive to our cash flow.  We expect to fund acquisitions of additional vessels using cash reserves set aside for this purpose or additional borrowings and may consider additional debt or equity financing alternatives from time to time.

 

Our management team and our other employees are responsible for the commercial and strategic management of our fleet. Commercial management includes the negotiation of charters for vessels, managing the mix of various types of charters, such as time charters, voyage charters and spot market-related time charters, and monitoring the performance of our vessels under their charters. Strategic management includes locating, purchasing, financing and selling vessels. We currently contract with three independent technical managers to provide technical management of our fleet at a lower cost than we believe would be possible in-house. Technical management involves the day-to-day management of vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies. Members of our New York City-based management team oversee the activities of our independent technical managers.

 

From time to time in the current global economic environment, our charterers with long-term time charters may request to renegotiate the terms of our charters with them.  As a general matter, we do not agree to make changes to the terms of our charters in response to such requests.  The failure of any charterer to meet its obligations under our long-term time charters could have an adverse effect on our results of operations.

 

Baltic Trading, formerly a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, completed its IPO on March 15, 2010.  As of June 30, 2012, the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiary Genco Investments LLC owned 5,699,088 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represents a 25.09% ownership interest in Baltic Trading at June 30, 2012 and 83.40% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock.  Baltic Trading is consolidated with the Company, as we control a majority of the voting interest in Baltic Trading.  Management’s discussion and analysis of the Company’s results of operations and financial condition in this section includes the results of Baltic Trading.

 

We entered into a long-term management agreement (the “Management Agreement”) with Baltic Trading pursuant to which we apply our expertise and experience in the drybulk industry to provide Baltic Trading with commercial, technical, administrative and strategic services.  The Management Agreement is for an initial term of approximately 15 years and will automatically renew for additional five-year periods unless terminated in accordance with its terms.  Baltic Trading will pay us for the services we provide it as well as reimburse us for our costs and expenses incurred in providing certain of these services.  Management fee income we earn from the Management Agreement net of any allocated shared expenses, such as salary, office expenses and other general and administrative

fees, will be taxable to us.  Upon consolidation with Baltic Trading, any management fee income earned will be eliminated for financial reporting purposes.

 

We provide technical services for drybulk vessels purchased by Maritime Equity Partners LLC (“MEP”) under an agency agreement between us and MEP.  These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services.  The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day plus reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs and will be provided for an initial term of one year.  MEP has the right to cancel provision of services on 60 days’ notice with payment of a one-year termination fee upon a change of our control.  We may terminate provision of the services at any time on 60 days’ notice.  Peter C. Georgiopoulos, our Chairman of the Board of Directors, is a minority investor in MEP, and affiliates of Oaktree Capital Management, L.P., of which Stephen A. Kaplan, one of our directors, is a principal, are majority investors in MEP.  This arrangement was approved by an independent committee of our Board of Directors.

 

During January 2011, the Genco Success, a 1997-built Handymax vessel, was on charter to Korea Line Corporation (“KLC”) when KLC filed for a rehabilitation application.  We estimate that we have a claim of approximately $0.8 million against KLC related primarily to unpaid revenue earned prior to re-delivery of the vessel.  If a rehabilitation plan is approved by the South Korean courts and it is determined that we will receive a cash settlement for our outstanding claim, any amounts due from KLC will be recorded once the collectibility of the receivable has been assessed and the amount has been deemed collectible.

 

Factors Affecting Our Results of Operations

 

We believe that the following table reflects important measures for analyzing trends in our results of operations.  The table reflects our ownership days, available days, operating days, fleet utilization, TCE rates and daily vessel operating expenses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 on a consolidated basis, which includes the operations of Baltic Trading.

Definitions

 

In order to understand our discussion of our results of operations, it is important to understand the meaning of the following terms used in our analysis and the factors that influence our results of operations.

 

(1) Ownership days.  We define ownership days as the aggregate number of days in a period during which each vessel in our fleet has been owned by us. Ownership days are an indicator of the size of our fleet over a period and affect both the amount of revenues and the amount of expenses that we record during a period.

 

(2) Available days.  We define available days as the number of our ownership days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades or special surveys and the aggregate amount of time that we spend positioning our vessels between time charters. Companies in the shipping industry generally use available days to measure the number of days in a period during which vessels should be capable of generating revenues.

 

(3) Operating days.  We define operating days as the number of our available days in a period less the aggregate number of days that our vessels are off-hire due to unforeseen circumstances. The shipping industry uses operating days to measure the aggregate number of days in a period during which vessels actually generate revenues.

 

(4) Fleet utilization.  We calculate fleet utilization by dividing the number of our operating days during a period by the number of our available days during the period. The shipping industry uses fleet utilization to measure a company’s efficiency in finding suitable employment for its vessels and minimizing the number of days that its vessels are off-hire for reasons other than scheduled repairs or repairs under guarantee, vessel upgrades, special surveys or vessel positioning.

 

(5) TCE rates.  We define TCE rates as net voyage revenue (voyage revenues less voyage expenses) divided by the number of our available days during the period, which is consistent with industry standards. TCE rate is a common shipping industry performance measure used primarily to compare daily earnings generated by vessels on time charters with daily earnings generated by vessels on voyage charters, because charterhire rates for vessels on voyage charters are generally not expressed in per-day amounts while charterhire rates for vessels on time charters generally are expressed in such amounts.

(6) Daily vessel operating expenses.  We define daily vessel operating expenses as vessel operating expenses divided by ownership days for the period.  Vessel operating expenses include crew wages and related costs, the cost of insurance, expenses relating to repairs and maintenance (excluding drydocking), the costs of spares and consumable stores, tonnage taxes and other miscellaneous expenses.

(1)         EBITDA represents net (loss) income attributable to Genco Shipping & Trading Limited plus net interest expense, taxes and depreciation and amortization.  EBITDA is included because it is used by management and certain investors as a measure of operating performance. EBITDA is used by analysts in the shipping industry as a common performance measure to compare results across peers.  Our management uses EBITDA as a performance measure in our consolidated internal financial statements, and it is presented for review at our board meetings.  We believe that EBITDA is useful to investors as the shipping industry is capital intensive which often results in significant depreciation and cost of financing.  EBITDA presents investors with a measure in addition to net income to evaluate our performance prior to these costs.  EBITDA is not an item recognized by 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.  EBITDA is not a measure of liquidity or cash flows as shown in our consolidated statements of cash flows.  The definition of EBITDA used here may not be comparable to that used by other companies.  The foregoing definition of EBITDA differs from the definition of Consolidated EBITDA used in the financial covenants of our 2007 Credit Facility, our $253 Million Term Loan Credit Facility, and our $100 Million Term Loan Credit Facility.  Specifically, Consolidated EBITDA substitutes gross interest expense (which includes amortization of deferred financing costs) for net interest expense used in our definition of EBITDA, includes adjustments for restricted stock amortization and non-cash charges for deferred financing costs related to the refinancing of other credit facilities or any non-cash losses from our investment in Jinhui, and excludes extraordinary gains or losses and gains or losses from derivative instruments used for hedging purposes or sales of assets other than inventory sold in the ordinary course of business.  The following table demonstrates our calculation of EBITDA and provides a reconciliation of EBITDA to net (loss) income attributable to Genco Shipping & Trading Limited for each of the periods presented above:

(1) The charter expiration dates presented represent the earliest dates that our charters may be terminated in the ordinary course.  Except for the Genco Constantine and the Genco Hadrian, under the terms of each contract, the charterer is entitled to extend the time charters from two to four months in order to complete the vessel’s final voyage plus any time the vessel has been off-hire. The charterer of the Genco Hadrian has the option to extend the charter for a period of one year.  The charterer of the Genco Constantine has the option to extend the charter for a period of eight months.

 

(2) Time charter rates presented are the gross daily charterhire rates before third-party commissions generally ranging from 1.25% to 6.25%. In a time charter, the charterer is responsible for voyage expenses such as bunkers, port expenses, agents’ fees and canal dues.

 

(3) We have agreed to an extension with Cargill International S.A. on a spot market-related time charter for 11.5 to 14.5 months based on 100% of the Baltic Capesize Index (BCI), published by the Baltic Exchange, as reflected in daily reports.  Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears less a 5.00% third party brokerage commission.  We maintain the option to convert to a fixed rate based on Capesize FFA values at 100%.  The vessel went to drydock for scheduled repairs on July 28, 2012.  The extension will begin when the vessel is out of drydock on or about August 8, 2012.

 

(4) These charters include a 50% index-based profit sharing component above the respective base rates listed in the table. The profit sharing between the charterer and us for each 15-day period is calculated by taking the average over that period of the published BCI of the four time charter routes, as reflected in daily reports. If such average is more than the base rate payable under the charter, the excess amount is allocable 50% to each of the charterer and us. A third-party brokerage commission of 3.75% based on the profit sharing amount due to us is payable out of our share.

 

(5) We have agreed to an extension with Cargill International S.A. on a spot market-related time charter for 14 to 16.5 months based on 100% of the BCI, as reflected in daily reports.  Hire is paid every 15 days in arrears less a 5.00% third party brokerage commission.  We

(15) We have reached an agreement with SK Shipping Co. Ltd. on a time charter for 3.5 to 6 months at a rate of $8,000 per day less a 5.00% third party brokerage commission.  Hire is paid every 15 days in advance.  The vessel delivered to charterers on June 20, 2012.

 

(16) We have reached an agreement to enter these vessels into the LB/IVS Pool whereby Lauritzen Bulkers A/S acts as the pool manager. We can withdraw up to two vessels with three months’ notice and the remaining three vessels with 12 months’ notice.

 

(17) The rate for the spot market-related time charter is linked with a floor of $8,500 and a ceiling of $13,500 daily with a 50% profit sharing arrangement to apply to any amount above the ceiling. The rate is based on 115% of the average of the daily rates of the Baltic Handysize Index (BHSI), published by the Baltic Exchange, as reflected in daily reports. Hire is paid every 15 days in advance net of a 5.00% third party brokerage commission.  These vessels were acquired with existing time charters with below-market rates. For these below-market time charters, we allocate the purchase price between the respective vessels and an intangible liability for the value assigned to the below-market charter-hire. This intangible liability is amortized as an increase to voyage revenues over the minimum remaining terms of the applicable charters, at which point the respective liabilities will be amortized to zero and the vessels will begin earning the ‘‘Cash Daily Rate.’’ For cash flow purposes, Genco will continue to receive the rate presented in the ‘‘Cash Daily Rate’’ column until the charter expires.  Specifically, for the Genco Spirit, Genco Avra, Genco Ocean and Genco Bay, the daily amount of amortization associated with the below-market rates are approximately $200, $350, $700 and $750 per day over the actual cash rate earned, respectively.

Three months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011

 

VOYAGE REVENUES-

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, voyage revenues decreased 36.9% to $62.1 million as compared to $98.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The decrease in revenues was due to lower charter rates achieved by the majority of our vessels as well as a higher number of days that our vessels were on planned offhire to complete drydockings during the second quarter of 2012 as compared to the second quarter of 2011.  The decrease in charter rates was partially offset by the increase in the size of our fleet.  Additionally, there was a decrease in revenues earned by Baltic Trading’s vessels of $2.3 million due to lower spot market rates achieved.

 

The average Time Charter Equivalent (“TCE”) rate of our fleet decreased 39.5% to $11,067 a day for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $18,299 a day for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The decrease in TCE rates resulted from lower charter rates achieved during the second quarter of 2012 versus the same period last year for the majority of the vessels in our fleet.  Continued deliveries of newbuilding vessels coupled with lower growth rates of imported commodities in emerging market economies through the first half of 2012 were the main contributors of reduced rates, which affected the earnings of our vessels. The effect of these contributors was partially offset by increased scrapping of older tonnage.

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we had 5,642.0 and 5,418.6 ownership days, respectively.  The increase in ownership days is a result of the delivery of three vessels during the second through fourth quarter of the year ended December 31, 2011.  Fleet utilization was relatively stable at 99.6% and 99.4% for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, respectively.

 

SERVICE REVENUES-

 

Service revenues consist of revenues earned from providing technical services to MEP pursuant to the agency agreement between us and MEP.  These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services.  The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day.  During the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, total service revenue was $0.8 million during both periods.

 

VOYAGE EXPENSES-

 

In time charters, spot market-related time charters and pool agreements, operating costs including crews, maintenance and insurance are typically paid by the owner of the vessel and specified voyage costs such as fuel and port charges are paid by the charterer. There are certain other non-specified voyage expenses such as commissions which are typically borne by us. Voyage expenses include port and canal charges, fuel (bunker) expenses and brokerage commissions payable to unaffiliated third parties. Port and canal charges and bunker expenses primarily increase in periods during which vessels are employed on voyage charters because these expenses are for the account of the vessel owner. At the inception of a time charter, we record the difference between the cost of bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as a gain or loss within voyage expenses.

 

Voyage expenses increased by $1.1 million from ($0.1) million during the three months ended June 30, 2011 as compared to $1.0 million during the three months ended June 30, 2012.  The increase is primarily due to larger net gains recorded during the second quarter of 2011 which represented the difference between the costs of the bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as compared to the second quarter of 2012.  This increase was partially offset by a decrease in in broker commissions as a result of a decrease in voyage revenue earned during the second quarter of 2012 as compared to the second quarter of 2011.  Included in this variance is a $0.8 million increase for Baltic Trading vessels which fluctuated due to the same reasons noted above.

 

VESSEL OPERATING EXPENSES-

 

Vessel operating expenses increased by $4.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011 primarily as a result of the operation of a larger fleet, including the three vessels delivered during the second, third and fourth quarters of 2011.  The increase was also related to higher maintenance and crew related expenses, as well as

 

37



Table of Contents

 

the timing of purchases of spare parts, partially offset by lower lube consumption for the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The $4.1 million increase includes a $0.5 million increase related to Baltic Trading’s vessels.

 

Daily vessel operating expenses increased to $5,232 per vessel per day for the three months ended June 30, 2012 from $4,700 per day for the three months ended June 30, 2011.  The increase in daily vessel operating expenses was mainly due to higher maintenance and crew related expenses as well as the timing of purchases of spare parts, partially offset by lower lube consumption.  We believe daily vessel operating expenses are best measured for comparative purposes over a 12-month period in order to take into account all of the expenses that each vessel in our fleet will incur over a full year of operation.  Our actual daily vessel operating expenses per vessel for the three months ended June 30, 2012 were $17 above the weighted-average budgeted rate of $5,215 per vessel per day, which includes Baltic Trading’s vessels.

 

Our vessel operating expenses, which generally represent fixed costs for each vessel, will increase if our fleet expands. Other factors beyond our control, some of which may affect the shipping industry in general, including, for instance, developments relating to market prices for crewing, lubes, and insurance, may also cause these expenses to increase.

 

GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND MANAGEMENT FEES-

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, general, administrative and management fees were $8.4 million and $8.3 million, respectively.  The increase in general, administrative and management fees was primarily due to higher office-related expenses partially offset by a decrease in non-cash compensation.  We incur management fees to third-party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies.  The increase in general, administrative and management fees was also a result of slightly higher management fees related to the operation of a larger fleet, including the delivery of three vessels during the second, third and fourth quarter of 2011.

 

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION-

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $0.5 million during the second quarter of 2012 as compared to the second quarter of 2011 primarily due to the operation of a larger fleet, including the three vessels delivered during the second, third and fourth quarter of 2011.

 

OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME-

 

NET INTEREST EXPENSE-

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net interest expense was $19.7 million and $21.4 million, respectively.  Net interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 consisted of interest expense under our 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and Baltic Trading’s $150 million senior secured revolving credit facility (the “2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility”) as well as interest expense related to our 5.0% Convertible Senior Notes (the “2010 Notes”).  Additionally, interest income, unused commitment fees associated with the aforementioned credit facilities as well as the amortization of deferred financing costs related to the aforementioned credit facilities are included in net interest expense during the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

The decrease in net interest expense for the second quarter of 2012 as compared to the second quarter of 2011 was primarily a result of the expiration of one interest rate swap agreement during the fourth quarter of 2011 and three during the six months ended June 30, 2012.  This decrease was offset by an increase in net interest expense due to the facility fee for the 2007 Credit Facility of 1.0% per annum, which is based on the average daily outstanding principal loan amount which was effective December 21, 2011 as per the amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility.  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the facility fee.  The increase in interest expense was also due to interest expense incurred on additional borrowings under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility due to the acquisition of three vessels during the second, third and fourth quarter of 2011.

 

INCOME TAX EXPENSE-

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012, income tax expense was $0.3 million as compared to $0.4 million during the three months ended June 30, 2011.  This income tax expense consists primarily of federal, state and local income taxes on net income earned by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Pursuant to certain agreements, we technically and commercially manage vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provide technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided.  These services are provided by Genco (USA), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes.  As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal

income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services.  Refer to the “Income taxes” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.  The decrease in income tax expense during the three months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period during the prior year is primarily due to lower commercial service revenue due to Genco (USA) from Baltic Trading pursuant to the Management Agreement as a result of lower charter rates achieved by Baltic Trading’s fleet.

 

NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTEREST-

 

For the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $2.8 million and $0.3 million, respectively.  These amounts represent the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest of Baltic Trading.

 

Six months ended June 30, 2012 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011

 

VOYAGE REVENUES-

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, voyage revenues decreased 39.2% to $121.1 million versus $199.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  Revenues decreased by approximately $78.0 million primarily due to lower charter rates achieved by the majority of our vessels as well as a higher number of days that our vessels were on planned off-hire to complete drydockings during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The decrease in charter rates was partially offset by the increase in the size of our fleet.  Additionally, there was a decrease in revenues earned by Baltic Trading’s vessels of $5.6 million due to lower spot maket rates achieved.

 

The average TCE rate of our fleet decreased 42.4% to $10,774 a day for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $18,720 a day for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The decrease in TCE rates resulted from lower charter rates achieved during the six months ended June 30, 2012 versus the same period last year for the majority of the vessels in our fleet. Continued deliveries of newbuilding vessels coupled with lower growth rates of imported commodities in emerging market economies through the first half of 2012 were the main contributors of reduced rates, which affected the earnings of our vessels. The effect of these contributors was partially offset by increased scrapping of older tonnage.

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we had 11,284.0 and 10,641.2 ownership days, respectively.  The increase in ownership days is a result of the delivery of four vessels during the year ended December 31, 2011.  Fleet utilization was stable at 99.4% during both periods.

 

SERVICE REVENUES-

 

Service revenues consist of revenues earned from providing technical services to MEP pursuant to the agency agreement between us and MEP.  These services include oversight of crew management, insurance, drydocking, ship operations and financial statement preparation, but do not include chartering services.  The services are provided for a fee of $750 per ship per day.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, total service revenue was $1.6 million during both periods.

 

VOYAGE EXPENSES-

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, voyage expenses were $2.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively. The $1.5 million increase is primarily due to large gains recorded during the six months ended June 30, 2011 which represented the difference between the costs of the bunker fuel delivered by the terminating charterer and the bunker fuel sold to the new charterer as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2012.  During the six months ended June 30, 2012, there was also an increase in bunker consumption during the ballast leg of certain time charters.  This increase was partially offset by a decrease in in broker commissions as a result of a decrease in voyage revenue earned during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period last year.  Included in this variance is a $0.7 million increase for Baltic Trading vessels which fluctuated due to the same reasons noted above.

 

VESSEL OPERATING EXPENSES-

 

Vessel operating expenses increased by $7.1 million for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011 primarily a result of the operation of a larger fleet, including the four vessels delivered during the year ended December 31, 2011.  The increase was also related to higher maintenance and crew related expenses, as well as the timing of purchases of stores and spare parts, partially offset by lower lube consumption for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The $7.1 million increase includes a $0.5 million increase related to Baltic Trading’s vessels.

Table of Contents

 

Daily vessel operating expenses increased to $5,082 per vessel per day for the six months ended June 30, 2012 from $4,723 per day for the six months ended June 30, 2011.  The increase in daily vessel operating expenses was mainly due to higher maintenance and crew related expenses, partially offset by lower lube consumption.  We believe daily vessel operating expenses are best measured for comparative purposes over a 12-month period in order to take into account all of the expenses that each vessel in our fleet will incur over a full year of operation.  Our actual daily vessel operating expenses per vessel for the six months ended June 30, 2012 were $133 below the weighted-average budgeted rate of $5,215 per vessel per day, which includes Baltic Trading’s vessels.

 

GENERAL, ADMINISTRATIVE AND MANAGEMENT FEES-

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, general, administrative and management fees remained stable at $17.1 million during both periods, with an increase in office-related expenses offset by lower non-cash compensation.  We incur management fees to third-party technical management companies for the day-to-day management of our vessels, including performing routine maintenance, attending to vessel operations and arranging for crews and supplies.

 

DEPRECIATION AND AMORTIZATION-

 

Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $1.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period last year due to the operation of a larger fleet, including the four vessels delivered during 2011.

 

OTHER (EXPENSE) INCOME-

 

NET INTEREST EXPENSE-

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net interest expense was $43.3 million and $42.5 million, respectively.  Net interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 consisted of interest expense under our 2007 Credit Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility as well as interest expense related to our 2010 Notes.  Additionally, interest income, unused commitment fees associated with the aforementioned credit facilities as well as the amortization of deferred financing costs related to the aforementioned credit facilities are included in net interest expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.

 

The increase in net interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the six months ended June 30, 2011was primarily a result of the facility fee for the 2007 Credit Facility of 2.0% per annum on the average daily outstanding principal loan amount which was effective December 21, 2011 as per the amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility, offset by the impact of the expiring of interest rate swap agreements during the fourth quarter of 2011 and the first quarter of 2012.  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for more information regarding the facility fee.  The facility fee of 2.0% was reduced to 1.0% on February 28, 2012 upon the completion of an equity offering of 7,500,000 shares.  The increase in interest expense was also due to interest expense incurred on additional borrowings under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and $253 Million Term Loan Facility due to the acquisition of four vessels during the year ended December 31, 2011.

 

INCOME TAX EXPENSE-

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012, income tax expense was $0.6 million as compared to $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011.  This income tax expense consists primarily of federal, state and local income taxes on net income earned by Genco Management (USA) Limited (“Genco (USA)”), one of our wholly-owned subsidiaries.  Pursuant to certain agreements, we technically and commercially manage vessels for Baltic Trading, as well as provide technical management of vessels for MEP in exchange for specified fees for these services provided.  These services are provided by Genco (USA), which has elected to be taxed as a corporation for United States federal income tax purposes.  As such, Genco (USA) is subject to United States federal income tax on its worldwide net income, including the net income derived from providing these services.  Refer to the “Income taxes” section of Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies included in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information.  The decrease in income tax expense during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to the same period during the prior year is primarily due to lower commercial service revenue due to Genco (USA) from Baltic Trading pursuant to the Management Agreement as a result of lower charter rates achieved by Baltic Trading’s fleet.

 

NET LOSS ATTRIBUTABLE TO NONCONTROLLING INTEREST-

 

For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, net loss attributable to noncontrolling interest was $6.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively.  These amounts represent the net loss attributable to the noncontrolling interest of Baltic Trading.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

 

To date, we have financed our capital requirements with cash flow from operations, equity offerings, convertible notes and bank debt.  We have used our funds primarily to fund vessel acquisitions, regulatory compliance expenditures, the repayment of bank debt and the associated interest expense and the payment of dividends.  We will require capital to fund ongoing operations, acquisitions and debt service.  Please refer to the discussion under the subheading “Dividend Policy” below for additional information regarding dividends.  We also may consider debt and additional equity financing alternatives from time to time.  However, if market conditions become negative, we may be unable to raise additional equity capital or debt financing on acceptable terms or at all.  We anticipate that internally generated cash flow will be sufficient to fund the operations of our fleet, including our working capital requirements, for the next twelve months.

 

Currently, our wholly-owned subsidiary Genco Investments LLC owns 5,699,088 shares of Baltic Trading’s Class B Stock, which represents a 25.09% ownership interest in Baltic Trading and 83.40% of the aggregate voting power of Baltic Trading’s outstanding shares of voting stock.  On April 16, 2010, Baltic Trading entered into the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility with Nordea Bank Finland plc, acting through its New York branch.  The 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility was subsequently amended effective November 30, 2010 which increased the borrowing capacity from $100 million to $150 million.  The amended 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility matures on November 30, 2016.  Refer to the 2011 10-K for a description of this facility as well as a description of the amendment entered into effective November 30, 2010.  To remain in compliance with a net worth covenant in the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, Baltic Trading would need to maintain a net worth of $232.8 million after the payment of any dividends.  We do not believe these restrictions have a significant impact on our liquidity.

 

We entered into two secured term loan facilities during August 2010 in order to fund vessel acquisitions.  On August 12, 2010, we entered into a $100 million secured term loan facility (the “$100 Million Term Loan Facility”) to fund or refund to us a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of five vessels from companies within the Metrostar group of companies.  Additionally, on August 20, 2010, we entered into a $253 million senior secured term loan facility (the “$253 Million Term Loan Facility”) to fund a portion of the purchase price of the acquisition of 13 vessels from Bourbon.

 

On February 28, 2012, we completed an equity offering of 7,500,000 shares of common stock at a purchase price of $7.10 per share.  The Company received net proceeds of $49.9 million after deducting underwriters’ fees and expenses.

 

The 2007 Credit Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and the $100 Million Term Loan Facility each include a maximum leverage ratio covenant limiting the ratio of our net debt to EBITDA to a maximum of 5.5 to 1.  We calculate the leverage ratio under our 2007 Credit Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and $100 Million Term Loan Facility by dividing our Average Consolidated Net Indebtedness by our Consolidated EBITDA as defined under these facilities.  There is no leverage ratio covenant under the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility.  Average Consolidated Net Indebtedness is the monthly average of our indebtedness as defined under the facilities, which at June 30, 2012 consisted of long-term debt, the 2010 Notes, cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash) and the letter of credit issued related to leases.  On December 21, 2011, we entered agreements which waived the existing maximum leverage ratio covenant, as well as the consolidated interest ratio, for the three aforementioned credit facilities for a period beginning on October 1, 2011 and ending on (and including) March 31, 2013.  On August 1, 2012, we entered into agreements which extended these waivers through December 31, 2013 (the “August 2012 Agreements”).  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the terms and fees associated with these agreements.  The August 2012 Agreements required us to utilize $99.9 million of cash to repay outstanding debt under these facilities and beginning with September 30, 2012, we have implemented a quarterly cash sweep whereby excess cash will be used to repay debt under the under the 2007 Credit Facility, The debt repayment of $99.9 million and the future cash sweep may limit the amount of available cash for future growth and other working capital needs of the Company.

 

If the current prolonged weakness in drybulk shipping rates does not abate, we may not be in compliance with covenants under our three credit facilities following the expiration of the waivers that were extended in the August 2012 Agreements. If such an event appears likely, we expect to seek further waivers or modifications to our credit agreements, which may be subject to certain conditions, and may also seek to raise additional capital through equity or debt offerings or selling assets (including vessels).  We cannot be certain that we will accomplish any such actions.  See Part II, Item 1A - Risk Factors.

 

Pursuant to the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility, the existing collateral maintenance financial covenant is waived, which required us to maintain pledged vessels with a value equal to at least 130% of our current borrowings, and accelerated the reductions of the total facility which began on March 31, 2009.  Please read the 2011 10-K for further details.  The collateral maintenance covenant is waived until we can represent that we are in compliance with all of our financial covenants.  Under the collateral maintenance covenants of our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, our $100 Million Term Loan Facility, and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the aggregate valuations of our vessels pledged under each facility must at least be a certain percentage of loans outstanding (or, in the case of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the total amount we may borrow), which percentages are

 

41



Table of Contents

 

135%, 130%, and 140%, respectively.  Under our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, the amount payable upon early termination of any interest rate swaps under the facility is added to outstanding loans for purposes of this covenant.  If our valuations fall below the applicable percentage, we must provide additional acceptable collateral, repay a portion of our borrowings, or (in the case of the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility) permanently reduce the amount we may borrow under the facility to the extent required to restore our compliance with the applicable covenant.  After the repayment of debt as required under the August 2012 Agreements, the Company estimates that it would not be in compliance if the collateral under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility were to decline approximately 10%. If it is likely that we would not be in compliance with this covenant, we expect to pay down sufficient outstanding debt on the facility to meet the covenant requirement utilizing cash and cash equivalents on hand.

 

Dividend Policy

 

Historically, our dividend policy, which commenced in November 2005, has been to declare quarterly distributions to shareholders by each February, May, August and November, substantially equal to our available cash from operations during the previous quarter, less cash expenses for that quarter (principally vessel operating expenses and debt service) and any reserves our Board of Directors determines we should maintain.  These reserves covered, among other things, drydocking, repairs, claims, liabilities and other obligations, interest expense and debt amortization, acquisitions of additional assets and working capital.  In the future, we may incur other expenses or liabilities that would reduce or eliminate the cash available for distribution as dividends.  Under the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility, we are required to suspend the payment of cash dividends until we can represent that we are in a position to satisfy the collateral maintenance covenant.  Refer to the 2011 10-K for further information regarding the current terms of the 2007 Credit Facility.  As such, a dividend has not been declared during 2009, 2010, 2011 or the six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

As a result of the 2009 Amendment to the 2007 Credit Facility, we have suspended the payment of cash dividends effective for the fourth quarter of 2008, and payment of cash dividends will remain suspended until we can meet the collateral maintenance covenant contained in the 2007 Credit Facility.  In addition, under the terms of the August 2012 Agreements, we are prohibited from paying dividends through December 31, 2013.

 

The declaration and payment of any dividend is subject to the discretion of our board of directors and our compliance with the collateral maintenance covenant, which is currently waived.  The timing and amount of dividend payments will depend on our earnings, financial condition, cash requirements and availability, fleet renewal and expansion, restrictions in our loan agreements, the provisions of Marshall Islands law affecting the payment of distributions to shareholders and other factors.  Our board of directors may review and amend our dividend policy from time to time in light of our plans for future growth and other factors.

 

We believe that, under current law, our dividend payments from earnings and profits will constitute “qualified dividend income” and, as such, will generally be subject to a 15% U.S. federal income tax rate with respect to non-corporate U.S. shareholders that meet certain holding period and other requirements (through 2012). Distributions in excess of our earnings and profits will be treated first as a non-taxable return of capital to the extent of a U.S. shareholder’s tax basis in its common stock on a dollar-for-dollar basis and, thereafter, as capital gain.

 

Cash Flow

 

Net cash provided by operating activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $0.6 million and $83.0 million, respectively. The decrease in cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to a net loss of $66.9 million for the first six months of 2012 compared to net income of $22.0 million for the same period of 2011, which resulted from lower charter rates achieved in the first half of 2012 versus the prior year period for the majority of the vessels in our fleet.

 

Net cash used in investing activities for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $2.7 million and $68.3 million, respectively.  The decrease was primarily due to fewer funds used for purchases of vessels during the first half of 2012 compared to the same period in 2011. For the six months ended June 30, 2012, cash used in investing activities primarily related to the purchase of fixed assets in the amount of $1.8 million and vessel related equipment totaling $0.8 million. For the six months ended June 30, 2011, cash used in investing activities predominantly related to purchases of vessels in the amount of $67.2 million.

 

Net cash provided by financing activities was $20.1 million during the six months ended June 30, 2012 as compared to $0.7 million during the six months ended June 30, 2011. The increase in cash provided by financing activities was primarily due to $49.9 million of net proceeds provided by our follow-on offering in February 2012. Cash used in financing activities for the first six months of 2012 consisted of a $12.5 million repayment of debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, $10.2 million repayment of debt under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, $3.8 million repayment of debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $0.2 million of deferred financing costs and the $3.1 million dividend payment of Baltic Trading to its outside shareholders. Cash provided by financing activities during the first six months of 2011 mainly consisted of $21.5 million of proceeds from the $253 Million Term Loan Facility related to the Bourbon vessels acquired and $20.0 million of proceeds from the $100 Million Term Loan Facility related to the

Metrostar vessels acquired offset by the following uses of cash: a $25.0 million repayment of debt under the 2007 Credit Facility, $9.8 million repayment of debt under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, $1.8 million repayment of debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $0.3 million of deferred financing costs and the $3.9 million dividend payment of Baltic Trading to its outside shareholders.

 

Credit Facilities

 

Refer to the 2011 10-K for a summary and description of our outstanding credit facilities, including the underlying financial and non-financial covenants.  On August 1, 2012 we entered into the August 2012 Agreements, which amended or waived certain provision of the agreements for the 2007 Credit Facility, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility.  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the terms and fees associated with these agreements.

 

As of June 30, 2012, we believe we are in compliance with all of the financial covenants under our 2007 Credit Facility, as amended; the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, as amended; the $253 Million Term Loan Facility, as amended and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility.

 

Interest Rate Swap Agreements, Forward Freight Agreements and Currency Swap Agreements

 

At June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we had five and eight interest rate swap agreements with DnB NOR Bank, respectively, to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates. The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $356.2 million and $606.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations.

 

Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements, which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

 

We have considered the creditworthiness of both ourselves and the counterparty in determining the fair value of the interest rate derivatives, and such consideration resulted in an immaterial adjustment to the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet. Valuations prior to any adjustments for credit risk are validated by comparison with counterparty valuations.  Amounts are not and should not be identical due to the different modeling assumptions.  Any material differences are investigated.

 

As part of our business strategy, we may enter into arrangements commonly known as forward freight agreements, or FFAs, to hedge and manage market risks relating to the deployment of our existing fleet of vessels.  These arrangements may include future contract, or commitments to perform in the future a shipping service between ship owners, charterers and traders.  Generally, these arrangements would bind us and each counterparty in the arrangement to buy or sell a specified tonnage freighting commitment “forward” at an agreed time and price and for a particular route.  Although FFAs can be entered into for a variety of purposes, including for hedging, as an option, for trading or for arbitrage, if we decided to enter into FFAs, our objective would be to hedge and manage market risks as part of our commercial management. It is not currently our intention to enter into FFAs to generate a stream of income independent of the revenues we derive from the operation of our fleet of vessels.  If we determine to enter into FFAs, we may reduce our exposure to any declines in our results from operations due to weak market conditions or downturns, but may also limit our ability to benefit economically during periods of strong demand in the market.  We have not entered into any FFAs as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

 

Contractual Obligations

 

The following table sets forth our contractual obligations and their maturity dates as of June 30, 2012.  The table incorporates the employment agreement entered into in September 2007 with our Chief Financial Officer, John Wobensmith.  The interest and borrowing fees reflect the 2007 Credit Facility, the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, the $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Notes utilizing the coupon rate of 5% which were issued on July 27, 2010 and the interest rate swap agreements as discussed above under the section “Interest Rate Swap Agreements, Forward Freight Agreements and Currency Swap Agreements.”  On August 1, 2012, we entered into the August 2012 agreements which amended or waived certain provisions of the 2007 Credit Facility, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility.  Refer to Note 9 — Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the fees and debt prepayments required as part of the agreements.  We have included these amounts in the credit agreement payments and interest and borrowing fees below.  The following table also incorporates the future lease payments associated with our two lease agreements.  Refer to Note 19 — Commitments and Contingencies in our condensed consolidated financial statements for further information regarding the terms of our two lease agreements.

(1)          Represents the six-month period ending December 31, 2012.

(2)          Includes the prepayments of debt made pursuant to the August 2012 Agreements of $57.9 million for the 2007 Credit Facility, $11.5 million under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and $30.5 under the $253 Million Term Loan Facility.

(3)          Includes the $48.2 million required debt repayment under the 2007 Credit Facility, which was paid July 2, 2012.

(4)          Includes the upfront fee related to the August 2012 Agreements of 0.25% of the outstanding loans payable after the prepayment of debt for the 2007 Credit Facility, the $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the $253 Million Term Loan Facility due on August 1, 2012 as well as the 1.25% fee payable to lenders under the 2007 Credit Facility due upon the maturity of the facility.

 

Interest expense has been estimated using the fixed hedge rate for the effective period and notional amount of the debt which is effectively hedged and 0.25% for the portion of the debt that has no designated swap against it, plus the applicable bank margin of 3.00% for the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility.  The applicable bank margin for the 2007 Credit Facility increased from 2.00% to 3.00% on August 1, 2012 upon the effective date of the August 2012 Agreements.  We are obligated to pay certain commitment fees in connection with all of our credit facilities, which have been reflected within interest and borrowing fees.  These commitment fees include the facility fee for the 2007 Credit Facility which represents 1.0% per annum on the average daily outstanding principal amount of the outstanding loans under the facility.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

We make capital expenditures from time to time in connection with our vessel acquisitions.  Excluding Baltic Trading’s vessels, our fleet currently consists of nine Capesize drybulk carriers, eight Panamax drybulk carriers, 17 Supramax drybulk carriers, six Handymax drybulk carriers and 13 Handysize drybulk carriers.  Baltic Trading’s fleet currently consists of two Capesize drybulk carriers, four Supramax drybulk carriers and three Handysize drybulk carriers.

 

In addition to acquisitions that we may undertake in future periods, we will incur additional expenditures due to special surveys and drydockings. We estimate our drydocking costs and scheduled off-hire days for our fleet through 2013 to be:

The costs reflected are estimates based on drydocking our vessels in China. Actual costs will vary based on various factors, including where the drydockings are actually performed.  We expect to fund these costs with cash from operations.

 

We estimate that each drydock will result in 20 days of off-hire.  Actual length will vary based on the condition of the vessel, yard schedules and other factors.  Included in the total estimated off-hire days during 2012 are five days for the Genco Carrier which entered the yard during June 2012 and did not complete docking until July 2012.

 

During the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we incurred a total of $7.2 million and $1.8 million of drydocking costs, respectively.

 

We estimate that six of our vessels, excluding the Genco Carrier, will be drydocked in the remainder of 2012.  An additional seven of our vessels will be drydocked in 2013.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

 

We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that are material to investors.

 

Inflation

 

Inflation has only a moderate effect on our expenses given current economic conditions. In the event that significant global inflationary pressures appear, these pressures would increase our operating, voyage, general and administrative, and financing costs.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

There have been no changes or updates to the critical accounting policies as disclosed in the 2011 10-K.

 

Vessels and Depreciation

 

We record the value of our vessels at their cost (which includes acquisition costs directly attributable to the vessel and expenditures made to prepare the vessel for its initial voyage) less accumulated depreciation.  We depreciate our drybulk vessels on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives, estimated to be 25 years from the date of initial delivery from the shipyard.  Depreciation is based on cost less the estimated residual scrap value of $245/lwt.  We estimate residual scrap value based on the 15-year average scrap value of steel.  An increase in the residual value of the vessels would decrease the annual depreciation charge over the remaining useful life of the vessel.  Similarly, an increase in the useful life of a drybulk vessel would also decrease the annual depreciation charge.  Comparatively, a decrease in the useful life of a drybulk vessel or in its residual value would have the effect of increasing the annual depreciation charge.  However, when regulations place limitations over the ability of a vessel to trade on a worldwide basis, we will adjust the vessel’s useful life to end at the date such regulations preclude such vessel’s further commercial use.

 

The carrying value of each of our vessels does not represent the fair market value of such vessel or the amount we could obtain if we were to sell any of our vessels, which could be more or less.  Under U.S. GAAP, we would not record a loss if the fair market value of a vessel (excluding its charter) is below our carrying value unless and until we determine to sell that vessel or the vessel is impaired as discussed in the 2011 10-K.  Excluding the three Bourbon vessels we resold immediately upon delivery to MEP at our cost, we have sold three of our vessels since our inception and realized a profit in each instance.  However, we did determine to cancel an acquisition of six drybulk newbuildings in November 2008, incurring a $53.8 million loss from the forfeiture of our deposit and related interest.

 

Pursuant to our bank credit facilities, we regularly submit to the lenders valuations of our vessels on an individual charter free basis in order to evidence our compliance with the collateral maintenance covenants under our bank credit facilities.  Such a valuation is not necessarily the same as the amount any vessel may bring upon sale, which may be more or less, and should not be relied upon as such.  We were in compliance with the collateral maintenance covenants under our $100 Million Term Loan Facility and our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, as well as the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility, at June 30, 2012, and the collateral maintenance covenant under our 2007 Credit Facility was waived at June 30, 2012, as discussed in Note 9 — Long-Term Debt in our condensed consolidated financial statements.  In the chart below, we list each of our vessels that represent the collateral for the aforementioned credit facilities, the year it was built, the year we acquired it, and its carrying value at June 30 2012.  At June 30, 2012, the vessel valuations of all of our vessels for covenant compliance purposes under our bank credit facilities as of the most recent compliance testing date were lower than their carrying values at June 30, 2012.  For the Genco Ocean, Genco Bay, Genco Avra, Genco Mare and Genco Spirit, the last compliance testing date was February 17, 2012, in accordance with the terms of the $100 Million Term Loan Facility; and for all other vessels, the compliance testing date was June 30, 2012, in accordance with the terms of the applicable credit facility.

 

The amount by which the carrying value at June 30, 2012 of vessels in our fleet exceeded the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes ranged, on an individual vessel basis, from $4.1 million to $77.1 million.  The average amount by which the carrying value of our vessels exceeded the valuation of such vessels for covenant compliance purposes was $22.6 million.  However, neither such valuation nor the carrying value in the table below reflects the value of long-term time charters related to some of our vessels, which can be significant.

ITEM 3.                        QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

Interest rate risk

 

We are exposed to the impact of interest rate changes.  Our objective is to manage the impact of interest rate changes on our earnings and cash flow in relation to our borrowings.  We held five and eight interest rate swap agreements with DnB Bank ASA atJune 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, respectively, to manage future interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates.  The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $356.2 million and $606.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations.  Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

 

The swap agreements with effective dates prior to June 30, 2012 synthetically convert variable rate debt to fixed rate debt at the fixed interest rate of the swap plus the applicable margin of 2.00% during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012.

 

The total liability associated with the swaps at June 30, 2012 is $20.4 million, of which $1.2 million is current, and $25.3 million at December 31, 2011, of which $1.7 million is current, and is presented as the fair value of derivatives on the balance sheet.  As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, the Company has accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCI”) of ($20.4) million and ($25.2) million, respectively, related to the effectively hedged portion of the swaps.  Hedge ineffectiveness associated with the interest rate swaps resulted in a minimal amount of other income (expense) during the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011.  At June 30, 2012, ($10.1) million of AOCI is expected to be reclassified into income over the next 12 months associated with interest rate derivatives.

 

We are subject to market risks relating to changes in LIBOR rates because we have significant amounts of floating rate debt outstanding.  For the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we paid LIBOR plus 2.00% on the 2007 Credit Facility for the debt in excess of any designated swap’s notional amount for such swap’s effective period.  Effective December 21, 2011, we were also subject to a facility fee of 2.00% per annum on the average daily outstanding principal amount of the outstanding loan under the 2007 Credit Facility pursuant to the amendment entered into with our lenders under this facility which was reduced to 1.0% on February 28, 2012 when we consummated an equity offering resulting in gross proceeds of $53.3 millionDuring the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we also paid LIBOR plus 3.00% on the outstanding debt under the $100 Million Term Loan Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility.  A 1% increase in LIBOR would result in an increase of $5.8 million in interest expense for the six months ended June 30, 2012, considering the increase would be only on the unhedged portion of the debt.

 

Derivative financial instruments

 

As of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011, we held five and eight interest rate swap agreements, respectively, with DnB Bank ASA  to manage interest costs and the risk associated with changing interest rates.  The total notional principal amount of the swaps is $356.2 million and $606.2 million, respectively, and the swaps have specified rates and durations.  Refer to the table in Note 11 — Interest Rate Swap Agreements of our condensed consolidated financial statements which summarizes the interest rate swaps in place as of June 30, 2012 and December 31, 2011.

 

The differential to be paid or received for these swap agreements is recognized as an adjustment to interest expense as incurred.  The interest rate differential pertaining to the interest rate swaps for the three months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $2.9 million and $7.3 million, respectively.  The interest rate differential pertaining to the interest rate swaps for the six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011 was $7.4 million and $14.6 million, respectively.  The Company is currently utilizing cash flow hedge accounting for the swaps whereby the effective portion of the change in value of the swaps is reflected as a component of AOCI.  The ineffective portion is recognized as other (expense) income, which is a component of other (expense) income.  If for any period of time we did not designate the swaps for hedge accounting, the change in the value of the swap agreements prior to designation would be recognized as other (expense) income.

 

Amounts receivable or payable arising at the settlement of hedged interest rate swaps are deferred and amortized as an adjustment to interest expense over the period of interest rate exposure provided the designated liability continues to exist.  Amounts receivable or payable arising at the settlement of unhedged interest rate swaps are reflected as other (expense) income and is listed as a component of other (expense) income.

 

Refer to “Interest rate risk” section above for further information regarding the interest rate swap agreements.

 

Currency and exchange rates risk

 

The international shipping industry’s functional currency is the U.S. Dollar.  Virtually all of our revenues and most of our operating costs are in U.S. Dollars.  We incur certain operating expenses in currencies other than the U.S. dollar, and the foreign exchange risk associated with these operating expenses is immaterial.

 

47



Table of Contents

 

As part of our business strategy, we may enter into short-term forward currency contracts to protect ourselves from the risk arising from the fluctuation in the exchange rate associated with the cost basis of the Jinhui shares.

 

Investments

 

We hold an investment in Jinhui of $27.4 million at June 30, 2012, which is classified as available for sale under Accounting Standards Codification 320-10, “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities” (“ASC 320-10”).  The investment is classified as a noncurrent asset based on our intent to hold the investment at each reporting date.  The investments that are classified as available for sale are subject to risk of changes in market value, which if determined to be impaired (other than temporarily impaired), could result in realized impairment losses.  The Company reviews the carrying value of such investments on a quarterly basis to determine if any valuation adjustments are appropriate under ASC 320-10.  We will continue to evaluate the investment on a quarterly basis to determine the likelihood of any further significant adverse effects on the fair value.  For the three and six months ended June 30, 2012 and 2011, we have not deemed our investment to be impaired.  In the event we determine that the Jinhui investment is subject to any impairment, the amount of the impairment would be reclassified from AOCI and recorded as a loss in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations for the amount of the impairment.

 

ITEM 4.                        CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

EVALUATION OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our President and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based upon that evaluation, our President and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures are effective.

 

CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

 

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during our most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

PART II:                       OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.                             LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

 

From time to time the Company may be subject to legal proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of its business, principally personal injury and property casualty claims. Such claims, even if lacking merit, could result in the expenditure of significant financial and managerial resources.  The Company is not aware of any legal proceedings or claims that it believes will have, individually or in the aggregate, a material effect on the Company, its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

 

ITEM 1A.                                           RISK FACTORS

 

In addition to the other information set forth in this report, you should carefully consider the factors discussed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2011, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. Below is updated information for the following risk factors:

 

The current global economic downturn may continue to negatively impact our business.

 

Under the terms of recent amendments to our credit facilities, compliance with our maximum leverage ratio and minimum permitted consolidated interest ratio covenants is waived through December 31, 2013.  However, if the current prolonged weakness in drybulk shipping rates does not abate, we may not be in compliance with these covenants following the expiration of these waivers. If such an event appears likely, we expect to seek further waivers or modifications to our credit agreements, which may be subject to conditions, and may also seek to raise additional capital through equity or debt offerings or selling assets (including vessels).  We cannot be certain that we will accomplish any such actions.  Absent such waivers or modifications, if we do not comply with these covenants and fail to cure our non-compliance following notice and expiration of applicable cure periods, we may be in default of one or more of our credit facilities. If such a default occurs, we may also be in default under the Indenture for our 2010 Notes. As a result, some or all of our indebtedness could be declared immediately due and payable, we may not be able to borrow further under our credit facilities and we may have to seek alternative sources of financing on terms that may not be favorable to us. If we are unable to service or refinance our current or future indebtedness, we may have to take actions such as reducing or delaying acquisitions or capital expenditures, selling assets, refinancing our indebtedness or seeking additional debt or equity capital.  We may therefore experience a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

Table of Contents

 

Restrictive covenants in our 2007 Credit Facility, $253 Million Term Loan Facility, $100 Million Term Loan Facility and the 2010 Baltic Trading Credit Facility may impose financial and other restrictions on us which could negatively impact our growth and adversely affect our operations.

 

The agreements we entered into on August 1, 2012 to amend our 2007 Credit Facility, our $253 Million Term Loan Facility, and our $100 Million Term Loan Facility require us to observe additional restrictions, such as a quarterly cash sweep of amounts over $100,000,000 in our accounts pledged under the 2007 Credit Facility and a limitation on indebtedness in connection with vessel acquisitions to 60% of the lesser of the vessel’s acquisition cost and fair market value.   These additional restrictions may prevent us from taking actions we might otherwise take in operating our business.
