Overseas Shipholding Group Reports Second Quarter 2022 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 2022.

  • Shipping revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were $118.0 million, an increase of $14.0 million, or 13.4%, from the first quarter of 2022. Compared to the second quarter of 2021, shipping revenues increased 33.5% from $88.4 million.
  • Net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $3.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $509 thousand, or ($0.01) per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2022. Net loss was $10.7 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021.
  • Time charter equivalent (TCE) revenues(A), a non-GAAP measure, for the second quarter of 2022 were $103.2 million, an increase of $9.3 million, or 9.9%, from the first quarter of 2022. TCE revenues were up 44.0% compared to the second quarter of 2021.
  • Second quarter 2022 Adjusted EBITDA(B), a non-GAAP measure, was $31.5 million, an increase of $6.1 million, or 23.9%, from the first quarter of 2022. Adjusted EBITDA increased 209.9% from $10.2 million in the second quarter of 2021.
  • Total cash(C) was $84.4 million as of June 30, 2022.
  • During the quarter, we returned our two remaining vessels to service from layup.
  • On June 13, 2022, our Board of Directors authorized a program to purchase up to five million shares of our common stock. We intend to fund the share repurchase program with excess cash.

Sam Norton, President and CEO, offered the following comments on the quarterly results announced today: "Second quarter results announced this morning continued to build on the progressive quarter-to-quarter improvements in important financial measures that we have witnessed over the past year. A return to profitability is perhaps the most gratifying highlight, as we ended the quarter with all vessels in operation for the first time since the onset of COVID-19. The long shadow of COVID-induced demand destruction seems to have finally receded, and the continued emergence of renewable diesel transport is providing favorable demand growth. Time charter equivalent earnings for the quarter exceeded $100 million for the first time in two years, and adjusted EBITDA of $31.5 million represents the best quarterly performance on this metric in many years."

Mr. Norton added, "Our patience in seeking medium-term charters at remunerative rates for our conventional tankers and ATBs has also yielded positive results. In recent weeks we have concluded employment contracts for our vessels securing nearly $250 million in forward time charter equivalent earnings over contract periods ranging from six to 36 months. As of today, we have fixed employment for 92% of available vessel days across the balance of 2022, and close to 80% of vessel available days for 2023. The welcome cash flow visibility that these fixed revenue streams will provide over the next 18 months should provide greater flexibility in managing opportunities for building on our recent achievements."

Second Quarter 2022 Results

Shipping revenues were $118.0 million for the second quarter of 2022, an increase of $14.0 million, or 13.4%, from the first quarter of 2022. TCE revenues increased $9.3 million, or 9.9%, from the first quarter of 2022 to $103.2 million in the second quarter of 2022. The increases were primarily a result of a 173-day decrease in layup days, as our two remaining vessels in layup returned to service in May 2022 and two full Government of Israel voyages and one partial Government of Israel voyage during the second quarter of 2022 that overlapped into the third quarter compared to one such voyage during the first quarter of 2022. The increases were partially offset by a 14-day increase in scheduled drydocking and an 11-day increase in repair days.

Second quarter 2022 operating income was $12.6 million compared to the first quarter 2022 operating income of $7.7 million.

Quarterly adjusted EBITDA increased to $31.5 million during the second quarter of 2022, a $6.1 million increase from the first quarter of 2022. The increase was driven by the increased revenues for the quarter.

In comparison to the second quarter of 2021, shipping revenues were up 33.5%. TCE revenues for the second quarter of 2022 were $103.2 million, an increase of $31.6 million, or 44.0%, compared with the second quarter of 2021. The increases primarily resulted from a 555-day decrease in layup days as we had fewer vessels in layup during the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021. During the second quarter of 2022, we had two vessels in layup for 82 days, both of which came out of layup in May 2022. During the second quarter of 2021, we had seven vessels in layup. Additionally, the increases resulted from two full Government of Israel voyages and one partial Government of Israel voyage during the second quarter of 2022 that overlapped into the third quarter, compared to one such voyage during the same period in 2021 and an increase in average daily rates earned by our fleet. The increases were partially offset by (a) a 17-day increase in scheduled drydocking, (b) a 14-day increase in repair days, (c) one less MR tanker in our fleet, Overseas Gulf Coast, which was sold in mid-June 2021 and (d) a decrease in Delaware lightering volumes and a decrease in the price per barrel lightered during the second quarter of 2022 compared to the second quarter of 2021.

Operating income for the second quarter of 2022 was $12.6 million compared to an operating loss of $5.8 million for the second quarter of 2021. Net income for the second quarter of 2022 was $3.7 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, compared with a net loss of $10.7 million, or $(0.12) per diluted share, for the second quarter of 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA was $31.5 million for the 2022 second quarter, an increase of $21.3 million compared with the second quarter of 2021, driven primarily by the increase 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.
