(NYSE: DSX), (the “Company”), a global shipping company specializing in the ownership and bareboat charter-in of dry bulk vessels, today announced the successful signing of a US$80.2 million seven-year secured term loan facility with Danish Ship Finance A/S on October 18, 2024.
Diana Shipping recorded a weak quarter due to its significant exposure to long-term contracts. On the positive side, DSX has made changes in its capital structure. The company restructured its debt, moving significant maturities to 2029, enhancing dividend safety for both common and preferred shares. DSX declared a cash dividend on its common stock of $0.075/share. At the present stock price, the yield is 15.6%. DSX preferred shares are attractive, too. They offer 8.3% yield.

ATHENS, Greece, Oct. 03, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Diana Shipping Inc. (NYSE: DSX), (the “Company”), a global shipping company specializing in the ownership and bareboat charter-in of dry bulk vessels, today announced that, through a separate wholly-owned subsidiary, it has extended the time charter contract with Aquavita International S.A., for one of its Post-Panamax dry bulk vessels, the m/v Phaidra. The gross charter rate is US$12,000 per day, minus a 4.75% commission paid to third parties, for a period until minimum May 1, 2025 up to maximum July 15, 2025. The new charter period is expected to commence on October 11, 2024.
The combination of weak quarterly results and dilution from warrant exercises has resulted in Diana Shipping's shares underperforming peers by a wide margin so far this year. Management's conservative chartering approach has been a drag on operating performance in recent quarters as it takes time for unfavorable legacy contracts to roll over to prevailing market rates. However, the company's average daily TCE rate should increase in the second half of the year mostly due to vastly improved time charter contracts for a number of Capesize vessels.
