Overseas Shipholding Group Reports Second Quarter 2021 Results

TAMPA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Overseas Shipholding Group, Inc. (NYSE: OSG) (the 'Company' or 'OSG'), a leading provider of energy transportation services for crude oil and petroleum products in the U.S. Flag markets, today reported results for the second quarter 2021.

  • Shipping revenues for the second quarter 2021 were $88.4 million, an increase of $7.1 million from the first quarter 2021. Compared to the second quarter 2020, shipping revenues decreased 22.9% from $114.5 million.
  • Net loss for the second quarter 2021 was $10.7 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, compared with net loss of $15.9 million, or ($0.18) per diluted share, in the first quarter 2021. Net income was $6.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2020.
  • Time charter equivalent (TCE) revenues(A), a non-GAAP measure, for the second quarter 2021 were $71.7 million, an increase of $6.2 million from first quarter 2021. TCE revenues were down 28.6% compared to second quarter 2020.
  • Second quarter 2021 Adjusted EBITDA(B), a non-GAAP measure, was $10.2 million, an increase of $4 million from the first quarter. Adjusted EBITDA decreased 65.9% from $29.8 million in the second quarter 2020.
  • In June, we sold the Overseas Gulf Coast for $32.1 million, net of broker commissions and other fees. The sale of this unencumbered asset provided additional liquidity.
  • During the quarter, the Company had seven ships in lay-up.
  • Total cash(c) was $61.8 million as of June 30, 2021.

Sam Norton, President and CEO, commenting on the recently completed quarter, stated, 'OSG's financial performance this quarter offers evidence of improving fundamentals in our core markets. Continued solid cash flows generated by our niche and ATC assets combined with stable contributions from our conventional tanker and ATB fleets to deliver better than anticipated EBITDA. The recovery slope of domestic marine transportation demand has been flatter than what had been expected earlier in the year due to import substitution for domestic supply. When fuel demand patterns consistent with historic levels of consumption normalize in the quarters ahead, we believe this will stimulate more marine transportation demand, which would positively impact our financial results.'

Mr. Norton added, 'The ongoing global coronavirus pandemic continues to weigh on demand and transport pricing dynamics in the global liquid bulk transportation markets. Our customers' reluctance to enter into longer-term transportation commitments has been a continuing condition since the onset of the pandemic. As vaccines become more widely distributed globally and consumption of transportation fuels outside of the United States regains traction, demand for Jones Act tankers domestically should normalize as our customers' visibility toward and confidence in the future returns.'

A, B, CReconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the financial tables attached to this press release starting on Page 8.

Second Quarter 2021 Results

Shipping revenues were $88.4 million for the quarter, an increase of $7.1 million, or 8.7%, from the first quarter of 2021. TCE revenues increased $6.2 million, or 9.4%, from the first quarter to $71.7 million in the second quarter. The revenue increase was driven by increases in lightering volumes and a 58-day increase in chartered out days during the second quarter.

The second quarter operating loss was $5.8 million compared to the first quarter operating loss of $15.7 million. The first quarter loss included a provision for loss related to the sale of the Overseas Gulf Coast of $5.5 million.

Quarterly adjusted EBITDA increased to $10.2 million during the second quarter, a $4 million increase from the first quarter of 2021. The increase was driven by the increased revenues for the quarter.

Shipping revenues were $88.4 million for the quarter, down 22.9% compared with the second quarter of 2020. TCE revenues for the second quarter of 2021 were $71.7 million, a decrease of $28.7 million, or 28.6%, compared with the second quarter of 2020, primarily a result of a 599-day increase in lay-up days due to seven vessels in lay-up, a decision taken in light of the lack of demand due to the economic impact of COVID-19.

Operating loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $5.8 million compared to operating income of $13.6 million in the second quarter of 2020.

Net loss for the second quarter of 2021 was $10.7 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, compared with net income of $6.4 million, or $0.07 per diluted share, for the second quarter 2020.

Adjusted EBITDA was $10.2 million for the quarter, a decrease of $19.6 million compared with the second quarter of 2020, driven primarily by the decrease in TCE revenues.

Reconciliation to Non-GAAP Financial Information

The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, the following non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional information that will better enable them to evaluate the Company's performance. Accordingly, these non-GAAP measures are intended to provide supplemental information, and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for measures of performance prepared with GAAP.

(A) Time Charter Equivalent (TCE) Revenues

Consistent with general practice in the shipping industry, the Company uses TCE revenues, which represents shipping revenues less voyage expenses, as a measure to compare revenue generated from a voyage charter to revenue generated from a time charter. TCE revenues, a non-GAAP measure, provides additional meaningful information in conjunction with shipping revenues, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, because it assists Company management in making decisions regarding the deployment and use of its vessels and in evaluating their financial performance. Reconciliation of TCE revenues of the segments to shipping revenues as reported in the consolidated statements of operations follows:

(B) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA represents net income/(loss) before interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. Adjusted EBITDA consists of EBITDA adjusted to exclude amortization classified in charter hire expenses, interest expense classified in charter hire expenses, loss/(gain) on disposal of vessels and other property, including impairments, net, non-cash stock based compensation expense and loss on repurchases and extinguishment of debt and the impact of other items that we do not consider indicative of our ongoing operating performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent, and should not be a substitute for, net income/(loss) or cash flows from operations as determined in accordance with GAAP. Some of the limitations are: (i) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect our cash expenditures, or future requirements for capital expenditures or contractual commitments; (ii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect changes in, or cash requirements for, our working capital needs; and (iii) EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the interest expense, or the cash requirements necessary to service interest or principal payments, on our debt. While EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are frequently used as a measure of operating results and performance, neither of them is necessarily comparable to other similarly titled measures used by other companies due to differences in methods of calculation. The following table reconciles net income/(loss) as reflected in the consolidated statements of operations, to EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
